The Gluten Free Fried chicken is amazing!! The staff is very accommodating and knowledgeable. The menu is clear about what dishes are already gf and what can be altered to be gf and vegan. I will definitely be back to try brunch!

Waiter double checked on several ingredients without being asked. Had shrimp and grits and felt fine the next day. Great wine!

We were so excited to try the fried chicken after reading the reviews. When ordering I informed the waitress that my kids had celiac disease. The sous chef then came out to talk to us and told us he did not feel it was safe for us to eat at the restaurant. He said he can't confirm that the dedicated fryers were actually being used correctly. I appreciated the honesty but do not recommend for celiacs.

Fried chicken and greens! OMG the best chicken, even counting before I found out I had celiacs! Staff was kind and low key about my request for extra caution without drawing undue attention to me like some restaurants have to act like it's a big production to bring out gluten free food to a customer and I just want a dining experience like every other customer!

Those with Celiac, I have two words for you....FRIED CHICKEN!!!!!They had a nice selection of gluten free food and the server even brought out freshly made gluten free donuts! I never eat fried food at restaurants for the simple reason of cross contamination, but this business has a dedicated space along with a dedicated fryer!!The server also told me the reason they're so careful is that the owner cannot eat gluten either. Whether the owner has Celiac or not they are taking the correct steps in order to prevent cross contamination. We will be back!!

Have been glutened the past 4 times I’ve eaten here. Chef comes out each time and talks about how they made sure it was gluten free & safe, unfortunately I still get sick.

I’ve eaten at MWD’s around the state regularly, and it seems they commonly have new kitchen staff regardless of location. More than once I’ve seen a newbie drop normal chicken in the “gluten free” fryer and the staff had to spend an hour cleaning the machine & reheating oil.

As much as the gesture is appreciated, you can’t truly clean a deep fryer in that short an amount of time. The amount of times I’ve been CC’d here shows.

I was so excited to eat here after reading all the wonderful reviews! I ordered the GF fried chicken and got SO sick! 😠 I even told the server I had Celiacs and he said I should be fine. I’m usually ok eating at restaurants as long as they try to be careful with cross contamination. My family and I are here on vacation just for the weekend so I’m super disappointed!

Great gluten free fried chicken. It is served on mashed potatoes topped with collard greens. So delicious! They have a separate fryer for the gluten free fried chicken.
