Complete disaster. Asked for a gluten free menu or if she knew any options. She said I could get a gluten free waffle or pancake or toast. No GF menu or options. It was dinner time. Ugh. Settled on the prime rib sandwich on GF bun. Came with fries and then when delivered I asked if they were GF. She went to the kitchen and came back and said no. Just no concept.
They do not have items marked GF on the menu, but the staff has been very knowledgeable and helpful at every visit. They have GF pancakes, french toast, and bread. Potatoes are not GF because of cross contamination. Cheesy Grits are gluten free and very good. Once we told our server it was due to celiacs/allergy, she informed us that the kitchen would take extra time to ensure there wouldn't be any cross contamination. Highly recommended.

Staff is knowledged. The first option on the menu was delicious (chicken panini and aioli). It should’ve been a panini, but to accommodate it to glutenfree I got toasted gluten free bread. As side dish the salad (which was also tasty) was available instead of the fries. Probably because they used a shared fryer.
super disappointed! Shared toaster, shared griddle for pancakes/waffles, shared fryer—a nightmare for those sensitive to cross contamination. I got eggs/bacon/untoasted bread, I won’t be coming back here again
(also, when our waitress asked the chef about shared surfaces, he said that the heat kills gluten…nope)
GF menu was just a paper stating substitutions you can make to make somethings GF but it wasn’t very comprehensive. I asked the waitress if omelets can be GF. She said she didn’t know so it was better not to order it - instead of going back and asking the cooks. I got the GF strawberry and salted caramel waffle. Waffle was not very good. I forced down half because I was hungry. I’ve had gf waffles at restaurants before that were amazing so I know it can be done.
Very cute place. Very roomy. Very knowledgeable staff about cross-contamination.
We had brunch here and the server seemed pretty knowledgeable. She warned us that the potatoes are fried in the same fryer as other things, so those are cross contaminated. But everything else was fine to eat. We had GF waffles, pancakes, and other breakfast items, and they have GF options for English muffins, toast, etc.
