ordered from the gluten-free menu (filet mignon & lobster, a house salad w/ no croutons and mashed potatoes). house salad came with crouton crumbs on it. when i asked a waiter if they could fix it for me and i pointed out the crumbs and how it looked like the croutons were put on and taken off, they tried telling me that the workers change their gloves every salad and that they "didn't do that", but they brought a new one anyway. the owner even came over and said the same thing. did not feel safe at all eating here. the lobster was really good but i was pretty upset with the salad experience.

Do not come here if you’re celiac. I went with my boyfriend and told them I had a gluten allergy and they served my shrimp on a piece of bread. Ended up extremely sick that night.

I had an amazing gluten free dinner there. There was a separate menu for gluten free meals. My family and I all ordered from there menu with plenty of options. Our server was very kind and made sure our food was how we needed it. They even had a gluten free brownie dessert. Overall, this experience was a stress reliever for someone who was just diagnosed as celiac.

Came for late dinner to-go. No issues! Just stick with simple stuff like steak and potatoes and you’ll be fine. It is a chain though, so I’m not sure how safe everything is. Felt fine after.

Staff was AMAZING and menu is pretty extensive for being GF in this area. I ordered from the GF menu and my husband did not. After putting the order in, our waitress came back to talk to me because my husband ordered food that was not GF and she wanted to be sure that I knew what could make me sick. Can't wait to go back!

Dedicated gluten free menu has lots of options. Just ask the hostess for it. They even have a hot gluten free brownie a la mode for dessert! Management is always happy to answer any questions.

My company wanted to order us a holiday lunch. We order with outback. My food was marked gluten free and put in its own bag. It was a great experience.

I went there for dinner with my boyfriend and explained to our server that i had celiac disease. He came back with a gluten free menu with a variety of options, i felt so comfortable eating there and my dinner was amazing! he explained to me that they take it very seriously and that he will explain to the cooks and write an extra note. It was an 100/10 experience for me.

I was on a trip to Splash Lagoon with family and was very hesitant to eat here as I get sick at one closest to where I live. I ate here with no issues! I got the wedge salad and loaded baked potato. The staff was knowledgeable and helpful!

This place was awful from our walk in to our overall experience! First thing when we got there the hostess told us that they only had one table available by the bar, but when I looked around only a few tables were occupied and mostly by the bar. She went on to instruct us that all the other tables were dirty!! My husband did not want to create a scene so we sat down and decided to order simple and had burgers mine with no bun. I did not get sick from the food or at least not yet but I will never return to this restaurant!! Very sad that the manager didn’t even try or get someone to clean off all those tables including wait staff!
