No GF menu, just items scattered around the menu that can be modified to GF. Very LIMITED options. 😟

They were knowledgeable about celiac but had VERY limited GF options. No GF buns, pizza, pasta, or bread of any kind. I was told I could order rice with one chicken dish or a salad. We got up and walked out. Too bad it has a lovely atmosphere.

No GF pizza or pasta. Only risotto and “stir fry”. However, they didn’t know that soy sauce is a no-no. I’d be skeptical.

They have GF stir fry, risotto and fresh catch seafood. Very nice atmosphere, service is a little slow. Reservations suggested.

the server knew what I was talking about and promptly showed me the options on the menu. the options were very limited, being chicken risotto, stir fry, Caesar salad [no meat] or the fresh catch of the day <fish> salad. I got the stir fry. it was pretty good but was a bit bland. I would recommend going to hilo bay cage opposed to here since the gluten free options available there are greater and more varied.

They had GF options if you asked your server, but no menu. Very nice place. Made a reservation as they can be busy. Food was pretty good.
