One of the worst restaurant experiences ever as a celiac, and I travel for a living so this says a lot. Rarely leave reviews but this was so bad feel I should warn others. After informing server I had a true allergy, and ordering a salad with grilled chicken she said was safe, asking it be gluten free, upon eating the chicken I could immediately tell it had been marinated in a sauce tasting like teriyaki and upon asking another server, was told it did have gluten in the marinade. My server made a joke about it, saying "whatever" and while standard is to remake something gluten free and comp the entree, they were initially going to charge for both the original and replacement salad. Only when I objected to the manager did they finally comp only the replacement salmon, not the salad. Now I'm left to feel sick for several days. Really disappointing, many other good choices in the area, it's not worth the potential misery to risk this one.
