I’ve been here many times for breakfast and while the menu can be a bit limited, the food is decent. I was here for dinner tonight and the roasted Brussels sprouts app is labeled as gluten free on the menu, however after they’re roasted they are also dunked in the fryer. Fortunately I could tell just by looking at them.

I got an egg scramble. They cooked it in its own pan and I got fruit for a side. It was great and felt good after!

I was nervous eating here after reading the latest reviews but had a wonderful experience. My waitress asked which items I was most interested in and then checked with the Chef to see if he could accommodate me. My top two options were doable. The quinoa with salmon or the Seared Salmon with Broccoli. They also highly recommended the cod with gluten free breadcrumbs. My meal was amazing and I had no issues afterwards!

NOT safe for celiac at all. Wait staff informed us that: no separate fryer (despite being advertised), same toaster used for regular and GF bread, and cross-contamination everywhere.

I went to the Black Dog for a late breakfast and had an Eggs Benedict type dish made with GF bread. It was delicious and I didn't get sick. Try to go when it's light out so you can enjoy the incredible view!

Food was tasty. A bit hard to find at night but fairly close to ferry terminal. Not convinced they have a good understanding of gf. bc our server said it “the fries are gf but the fryer is cleaner In The morning than at night” and then asked if I still wanted fries”. Clearly not dedicated fryer so I passed. I got steak and veggies and did ok. But be careful what you order - I have a feeling the don’t truly have dedicated space.

We had a great meal with substitute breads and French fries in a dedicated fryer. Our server was friendly and helpful in identifying what they could and could not accommodate. I realize it is always a risk of cross contamination in every day restaurants but they seemed to do a good job of keeping us safe. Two of us had burgers and I had a BLT.

Lots of GF options and food was tasty, but service was agonizingly slow. 45 minutes until appetizer comes out which is brutal when you can't fill up on bread :)
