Review


I had a great experience! I called ahead and was told they have celiac friendly options, but it is a small kitchen space so they can’t guarantee no cross contamination. Shout out to my server, Miran, who took it very seriously. Despite not having a separate menu, she was able to point out all of my options and was very educated on accommodation for celiac. They do not have a dedicated fryer and unfortunately don’t have gluten free pita, but supposedly this is in the works. The food was delicious with starters, small plates, and entrees. Miran even had the kitchen modify their banana dessert so I could try it. I am personally a very sensitive celiac and I did not have a reaction. Highly recommend!!
