I went with my daughter for an early dinner. The menu was clearly marked, the wait staff was very knowledgeable about ingredients and preparation procedures for avoiding cross contamination, and the food was delicious! The vibe was fun and relaxed, and there was even live music. I will go again if I’m in town, and I am very sensitive and didn’t get sick at all, so I feel pretty safe.
Menu clearly marked with GF items and my server seemed to know what it was and marked. But I ordered shrimp and grits gluten free and came with bread on it.
im sensitive to gluten, NOT CELIAC, so I can have cross contamination and therefore should not be taken as a source if you are very sensitive to cross contamination or contact, however, the managers here are very knowledgeable about what cross contamination is and what contains cross contamination risks. They also now have markings on theyre menu for each menu item that has a “gluten sensitive option available”. If you are like me and have a gluten allergy or sensitivity that is on the more mild side, this is a great option their tacos and bowls all have GS options available
Our server Bobby was super knowledgeable and said he wanted me to feel comfortable. I ordered the southwestern chicken bowl. He said he put on the order 3 times that there couldn't be cross contact due to an allergy. Unfortunately all chips, fries, etc are in a shared fryer so all that stuff was off the menu for me. The bowl came out with tortilla strips on it so I informed him it needed redone. He said the tortilla strips are not put in the fryer as they come in a bag from their supplier. Instead of leaving it at that, he went to the kitchen to double check the bag to confirm it was in fact gf which it was. The meal was so delicious and I have lots of leftovers. Our hostess even told our Bobby before he came over that I was gf so he came completely prepared. I highly recommend.
I can't speak to the safety as I didn't speak to a manager but they all seemed very accommodating and knowledgeable.
Good food, super knowledgeable waitress, all in our party left happy and full! GF and Dairy free in our group! No one got sick! 5 Stars for sure!❤😃
Not a good experience for Celiac. They had “gluten sensitive” options on the menu, but almost all items had to have some sort of modification that wasn’t listed on the menu. When I asked the waitress about what modifications needed to be made to certain menu items to make them GF, she was unsure. She also stated that all of their food is prepared in the same kitchen with the same fryers. She did say they could clean a small part of the grill for me, but the safety and knowledge of celiac just did not seem to be present there. Nothing sounded promising, and I felt very uncomfortable so we unfortunately had to leave the restaurant.
For our appetizer, we enjoyed a pound of the royal red shrimp. One of our gluten-free entrées was they gluten-free tacos with tuna and side of mixed vegetables.
The other gluten-free dish was one of the southwestern bowl with grilled chicken, rice, and vegetables.
Make sure they leave off the chips because there is not a dedicated fryer. Other than that it was a great view and delicious dinner with friends.
