This place boasts about having a great gluten free menu & they do... if only what was listed on that menu was actually gluten free. I ordered the honey bourbon glazed salmon which was listed on the GF menu. It’s supposed to come with gf gnocchi and a spinach/bacon hash. The waitress came back after I ordered to tell me that the gnocchi is not actually gluten free and asks me if that is ok. I say nooo. She offers me a gf risotto instead & I say that’s okay. Almost 40 minutes later the food comes out. She served me a plain salmon over what appears to be yellow rice (maybe saffron) which is not what I ordered. I ask her where the honey bourbon glaze part is and she tells me that the chef says I can’t have it because it’s also not gf. THEN WHY WOULD YOU PUT IT ON THE GF MENU. The waitress did her best & took my dry salmon and gross yellow rice off of the check, but we will not be coming back unless the chef & management stop advertising things that are not gluten free as gluten free. I have a pretty serious allergy & situations like this are not OK. False advertising is illegal.
