Review


I went on a busy Friday night and, although they were understaffed and it took a long time to get our food, I had a lot of gluten free + vegetarian options that made the wait worth it. I got Parmesan fries (which are cooked in a separate fryer) with a really yummy salad. I was informed that the gluten-free penne is also cooked with separate equipment and is celiac-safe, although I did not order this menu item. I have also gotten the mashed potatoes in the past which were delicious! The falafel is unfortunately cooked in a shared fryer. I did not get sick at all after eating here which was amazing.
