Totally unaware & educated about allergies. They don't have a separate gluten free menu and there are about half a dozen things marked as gluten free, no appetizers or desserts, barely any sides and drinks aren't marked. Our waiter was very kind and tried to be helpful with my order but the kitchen apparently was terrible. My steak was almost raw in the middle and I asked for med. well but the most ridiculous part was I asked for steamed broccoli with no butter because of a dairy allergy and they brought out raw broccoli with butter smeared all over the top, which our waiter and the kitchen didn't catch. Then someone in the kitchen brought out cooked broccoli, apologized, and explained that they "washed the butter off then steamed so it should be totally ok for you now"... gross. There was a bbq sauce thumb print on my plate (nothing I ordered had sauce) that I didn't see until half way through my meal and most of the bottom of my baked potato was covered in some kind of sauce - major cross contamination issue with this and the butter being washed off the broccoli, not to mention just gross. Also both my water and drink glass had good stock to the outside. For those in need of an allergy aware safe place this is not it. However my boyfriend who does not have any allergies said his meal was good.

Celiac friendly?
