Review
Not a great experience overall both for gluten and just general dining experience. First we wanted to order the artichoke appetizer that’s listed as GF on the menu and when we double checked the waiter said “actually the chef uses Panko crumbs and can’t remove them so it’s not GF”. Then we tried to order a GF flatbread but they were all out of the GF bread. I ordered the shrimp scampi with GF pasta and it was honestly mediocre. We visited in off season and the waiter was inattentive. If you’re reading this and trying to decide where to go I recommend the Solterra wine bar right down the street. Much more GF friendly, better food, and better service.
