I absolutely love this restaurant! I am visiting Lake Havasu City and wish this restaurant was in Sedona, Az so I could go often. I had the Stroganoff special - made with filet mignon. It was so very good! The servers are all extremely aware of gluten free since the owner’s daughter has celiac. Our server told us all their sauces are made gluten free. We are going back again before we leave.. I’ll probably try the chicken piccata 😊

I decided to try the gluten free pizza based on my earlier dinner. I have had much better - sadly, I do not recommend it.

So good! All I had to ask was for a gluten free menu and the server right away told me safety protocols. We’re 3 years into our celiac journey and this is one of the first times we’ve enjoyed a sit down meal! The owners daughter has celiac and has made every item on the menu have a GF option (except meatballs). Highly recommend

Excellent food and so many options for my very sensitive celiac daughter! All of the staff was very conscientious about her needs and so friendly! They even have vegan options for my husband.

Food was fantastic. Very knowledgeable on GF options, also marked clearly on the menu. We had the veal picatta and chicken marsala with the GF pasta. Delicious and no adverse reaction for 2 people who are pretty sensitive.

Also a good atmosphere and nice staff

Very accommodating! No reactions! Took time to listen and share that they are confident in kitchen as they shared the owner's daughter is celiac. Feels good to be worry and anxiety free. I had ravioli and my son who is also celiac had chicken parmigiana and we both loved it!

Great knowledge of celiac disease and cross contamination. I’ve eaten here at least 5 times and always have had Monique as our server. I trust her, she seems to take the allergy very seriously as does the kitchen and management. A lot of choices. Gotta try it out. Very busy so make a reservation.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Food was amazing and the service was excellent despite the place being packed. We had the owners daughter as our server who said her sister has celiac and was so knowledgeable and helpful. Had the GF meat lasagna which was delicious and the rest of the table loved their meals as well. Will definitely be back!

Update 2019 - So I went back! Had he ravioli this time with meat sauce and it was again delicious and I felt great!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Food was amazing, service was even better. Owners family member has celiac so they are super knowledgable. Even have gluten free dessert options. Phenomenal mixed drinks. A++++++

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Was so disappointed after the reading the reviews here and speaking to the waitress, who seemed really knowledgable and explained that her sister has a wheat allergy. There are many gf options on the menu and the food and atmosphere was good ( both gf and not) My celiac daughter was delighted with her gf kids pizza but before we even left the restaurant she began to feel ill and had to rush to the bathroom and it was clear that she had been glutened ( typically it affects her within 10-15 minutes). I really wanted to like this place and hopefully we just were there on a bad night but celiacs need to be extra careful.

Celiac friendly?

No

We are all gluten free, family of 5. They had something for everyone here. I would give this place many more stars if I could!

Was great food. Nice to be able to eat and not have to worry about getting sick. Our waiter was a hoot. Really loved the food and his entertainment

Exceptionally good g.f. ravioli & gnocchi!! A lot of locals were eating here. I will go back whenever in town!

I have Celiac Disease. According to wait staff at the restaurant, so does the chef/owners daughters. Hence, AMAZING food. my daughter had THE BEST gluten free pizza of her life and I had GF pasta with salmon that was better than real pasta. Everyone was very knowledgeable about cross contamination. wish I lived closer to this restaurant!

Super amazing knowledge of Gluten Free!! The owner has done extensive research about GF. They can and will make most any menu item Gluten free and it's amazing!! I'll come here every time I'm in Havasu!

The lasagna was wonderful. Wish I could find decent lasagna noodles to make it at home since I live a long way from Lake Havasu.
