Came here based on find my gf reviews. Our server was very nice and confidently said to not worry about gluten precautions. First appetizer Caribbean ceviche had fried plantains in it. We got a little worried about the fried part, asked server to double check, and ended up being contaminated! Got lucky we caught it. They prepared a new dish with the fried item on side, then was safe. As for main, had the grilled red snapper which was delicious and gf! Passed on desserts as they were all in same area and can’t trust baking process. Overall a great meal just had to be overly cautious.

We ate here for dinner last night & since it was a Friday night, they had live music with dancers. Not only did we have a great meal, but we had fun entertainment! They have gf beer on the menu but nothing else is labeled gf, you have to ask, but our server was very knowledgeable. My daughter had the surf & turf and she loved it! I had the power protein bowl with quinoa & it was ok. They have a whole dessert case with a ton on cakes & they had 3 gf options that were flourless. Chocolate clementine, espresso chocolate & almond chocolate. We tried the almond chocolate & it was good.
