Review


We've been twice now. We thought we had a good experience the first time and everything was fine. Went back last night and had a totally different experience. We were with a group of people and almost all of us needed gluten free. I ordered the same two dishes I ordered the first time. I was then told that the spring rolls that I had previously ordered were not gf. Which should have been a red flag. Because I was told they were gf last time. I get nervous when I'm told conflicting info. I was then told they could be made gf but it would take extra time. So I went ahead and asked them to make it. When it came out it was definitely different looking than the first time. So either these were not gf or the first time was not gf. I also ordered pad Thai. So did another celiac at the table. Their pad Thai was a different color than my pad Thai and we questioned the server to double check they were both gf.we were told they were and maybe there was just more sauce on mine. Then we saw the waitress go to another waitress and roll her eyes as she relayed the question we had just asked her. Well..... My celiac friend got severely sick that night. So..... Clearly something wasn't gf. Was either the pad Thai or the fried tofu he ordered--both of of which they assured us was gf. I wouldn't recommend this place for celiacs. There was definitely conflicting information and a lack of understanding.
