Très bel endroit et la nourriture est très bonne. Le menu n’est pas indiqué ce qui est gluten free mais il y a plusieurs options. Moi j’ai mangé un steak avec crevettes et mon fils des pâtes au tomate. Il y a une friteuse dédié. Mon fils réagit à la moindre petite contamination. Et tout a été fait dans les normes. La serveuse connaissait très bien être cœliaque. Bon mais dispendieux mais c’est Niagara Falls.

I didn’t think that I’d be able to eat here because they didn’t have a dedicated GF menu and only 1 thing was listed. They do have a GF bun and a dedicated fryer. We were here for a week. I ate there most nights and they were very accommodating and careful!

Staff seemed knowledgeable. Only a couple of things are marked on the menu. It was nice that the staff knew what could be made gf. I had a burger and fries. They do have a gf bun and a dedicated fryer, which is nice. Expensive but good.

They had a gluten free menu online, items were not labelled in the restaurant but the server was aware and gave me some options. Food was much better than expected and we loved the crazy drinks!

Staff appeared to be very knowledgeable about allergies. They had a dedicated fryer for French fries and they have gluten free buns. The food was safe (I did not get sick from cross contamination or anything) but it wasn’t very good, it was just ok- and the rest of the people I was eating with agreed with me. Overall, this is a good option if you want something safe, but I would avoid it if you want good food.

We had a large group for a birthday on Saturday I am at ECMC Hospital with my daughter that has food poisoning. Her boyfriend and others in the party are very ill. Dr in emergency stated this rest is known for leaving food out too long. 2yr old is sick also. So please be careful this was a nightmare. Hopefully the health inspector will be there soon. Please be careful.

Very few options for gf kids. Server was not very knowledgeable, but was aware that special care needed to be taken. Food was mediocre at best. Kid options gf Mac and cheese, and grilled chicken. Their dedicated fryer had "accidentally" been used for other non-gf items, and therefore no fries... At least they told us before they served them to our girls. Sides included kettle chips and fruit. Bottom line: you can eat here gf...as a last resort for kids. More options for adults. Ask many questions.

They don't have a GF menu, but the hostess told me to talk to the server. They have GF rolls for sandwiches and burgers and GF pasta. Really fun atmosphere for the kids, food was really good and nice to have a place to eat on vacation that everyone enjoyed and was safe for me.

Good for a fun bite to eat. Most of their menu is gluten free, except for the fried items. Even the fries are done in their own fryer to keep from cross contamination. Great place for kids.

Waiter was completely clueless (had no idea whether pasta would be a gf food or not). Very few options.

The food was good and there are a decent amount of options. My only complaint is the food is extremely overpriced. We spend over $100 for 4 of us and that was purchasing the cheaper meals. We did not purchase appetizers or dessert.

My server really didn't have much knowledge of gluten free items. He did give me his hand written list of what was gluten free. They have gluten free buns for the burgers. My food was brought out touching all the other food on the tray, so be careful of cross contamination.

Had the rainforest burger with a gf bun. The manager came to talk with me and confirmed the fries are made in a dedicated fryer. Both were good and no reaction.

Just went there for my son’s birthday and had a fabulous time. The kitchen manager came out just to take the gluten free order for me and my kiddo and the waiter took the order from the rest of the family. We had Atlantic Salmon and Bombay Chicken and Shrimp. Both dishes were awesome. The manager was very accommodating and kind enough to tell me what substitutions would be safe on the dishes for both of us. Loved the ambience and service over all.

My family (celiac) got bacon cheeseburgers with gluten free buns and fries. The fries are in a separate gf fryer and they said that the burger tasted really good and of course the atmosphere was great. Manager came out to offer suggestions and also came out again a second time with our waiter when we ordered. I didn’t get anything other than drinks this time as I am so sensitive and am currently without Nima cartridges and if still getting over a Gastroparesis flare up so just ate at home when I could be on all of my meds
