Can't speak to the food because I ultimately decided not to dine here, but I was surprised to find the manager so uninformed and unaccommodating regarding celiac and cross-contamination concerns given all the positive reviews from others on this app. When I arrived and asked to speak to the manager about their GF options and what kind of kitchen policies they have to prevent cross-contamination with gluten containing items the manager did not understand what I was talking about at all. I tried explaining what I was asking in different ways but he could not even tell me if they use separate/clean cookware for GF/allergy sensitive dishes. He was very rude and condescending during this exchange and kept pointing to the GF symbols on the menu as if that explained everything. He said others come in and order GF items and just eat it, they don't ask all these questions. At that point I decided it wasn't worth the risk to my health and we left. Very disappointing experience.
