Review of Jake's Old City Grill

We’ve been here twice and had different experiences. I’m gluten free (celiac) and my husband is not. When we went for our anniversary we had a beautiful dinner. While they don’t have a gluten free menu they have gluten free pasta. Our waitress for that experience was wonderful and worked with me and communicates with the kitchen the ingredients as there aren’t many gluten free sauces. I ended up getting the chicken Parmesan with grilled chicken and it was wonderful. I also had a salad without croutons. The second visit I wanted the same thing as last time and the waiter said it couldn’t be done, I questioned and was made to feel like an inconvenience. Instead he suggested the shrimp scampi and said the only thing needed to be changed was the noodles. My salad was brought with croutons as well. It’s sad because we love supporting local and pasta is one of my favorite dishes. On the other hand my husband’s meals were both good both times.
