Review of E&O Asian Kitchen

We came for the gluten free menu and it was the red headed step sister of the main menu. I am used to this of course, but it would be nice for chefs to take the time to make a more exciting GF menu if they are bothering to print one at all. We had the apple salad off the GF menu which was terrific. I ordered the steak from the GF menu which was 28 dollars at the recommendation of my server. It was totally forgettable. There were strange sized chunks of meat with vegetables and very little flavor. My server explained that this GF menu is really just a few dishes off of the main menu which have had the gluten ingredients removed. This dish may actually have flavor on the regular menu. My son order the salmon off the GF menu which was okay (good temp, good quality fish, really boring sides and sauce). My husband ordered pork off of the regular menu and was not excited by his food either. He and I both ordered ambitious cocktails which were totally amazing though. The attention to detail was evident. They were STELLAR! We did not order wine nor dessert. I loved the lighting and the overall "feel" of the place. It is romantic and modern. The service was good, and the host/hostess shined. I desperately wanted to order some of the fun looking little plates, but couldn't because they were not on the GF menu. I suppose I would urge establishments to do more with a GF menu since families like ours come JUST because of the menu.
