Review


We picked this place based on the reviews. I called ahead and talked to the manager on duty who explained to me that they are familiar with Celiac and have a separate prep area to prepare the food. He did indicate that none of the fried food would be safe. Upon arriving we talked to the owner who immediately jumped to help us and accommodate our needs. He explained the Manu and what can be done for our celiac son. He said he was very familiar with celiac because he has a daughter and granddaughter with celiac. He talked to the server and kitchen staff to make sure the food was handled properly. He checked with us multiple times to ensure everything is ok. Our son wanted a fish which was Mahi Mahi. His food was served on a different plate that we had. The food was a little bland but I guess only way to ensure it was safe. Our son didn't get sick and we had a very pleasant experience! Very refreshing to see the efforts of the staff and understanding of the issue.
