got gf pasta and all allergies come out w a little red flag on top. menu not marked but pasta is an easy choice for those looking for something close (and delicious)
I wish they had a separate GF menu, cause the waiter suggested I pick something and we could see if it could be made GF. I don't like that uncertainty, so I just went with pasta cause it was listed on the menu as a GF option. Food was pretty good.
Totally awesome brunch!!! Perfect if you’re staying locally in downtown. They were really accommodating and knowledgeable about allergies, huge dining room and arrived at 1230 without a reservation.
I had the skirt steak and eggs, so good, came with an allergy flag. Lots to choose from, only they have no GF bread. The hollandaise is GF as are the home fries. No issues here. Free cocktail as well if you order from the main brunch menu!

Well taken care of by staff. Food was amazing. Oysters are a must.
Definitely not gluten free dedicated, however, they seem to be very aware of cross contamination and promise they are well prepared for it. The manager was very careful, the food comes with a red flag on the top and is delicious. As I am not symptomatic, I can’t say further than this, but the simple fact of being aware of cross contamination and all the care with my issue made me very happy and “safe” (not a much as a dedicated place). I’m still learning. This was the first restaurant I’ve been to after the diagnosis. I recommend to call in advance to make reservations.
Yummy!!! got the ranchero nacho scramble, they have a GF fryer! more on my instagram: @glutenfree_allie
They took my allergy very seriously and my plate was even marked gf. Highly recommend.
Had the mussels and jalapeño cheese potatoes. Delicious! No gf bread. No gf seltzers. 1 gf beer option, IPA. Service great.
(Celiac diner here) Gluten-free protocol is EXCELLENT: manager checks on the meal, plates are literally FLAGGED so you know you have a gluten-free dish, they use a gluten-free dedicated fryer, and the French fries are AWESOME! Goat cheese omelet! Burger without the bun is soooo delicious (with garlic aioli), I didn’t miss the bun. Great brunch Saturday and Sunday with awesome brunch cocktails (included with some entrees). We ate here every day because it is reassuring to see their diligence.
the wait staff was very knowledgeable about allergies and accompanying! our food was amazing! 10/10!
Pasta was very okay, got the gf rigatoni with the truffle cream sauce. Probably not worth $25
Got a gluten free pasta dish here and shared the honey crisp apple salad too! The waiter made sure to talk to the chef and flagged the meal for gluten free without cross contamination. They even placed a red allergy flag on my pasta and when the server came with it they called it “gluten free rigatoni alla vodka” which was so nice not to ask to do one last double check that it was safe! The place was busy, so I was glad we had a reservation. The food tasted great, but definitely a heavier meal!
The jalapeño cheese grits are amazing.
The gluten free pasta is good. I asked for more cheese for flavor.
The waitress was very very knowledge about the menu and gluten free items.
No to fries (😒) how can you make fries gluten based when all you doing is frying potatoes lol
You do need to ask about more gluten free options outside of the pasta which is marked
I would not go back again. First the seat was very dirty. The staff cleaned up the crumbs but turns out my daughter stained her white pants as there was also ketchup smeared all down the booth’s side walls. The place was extremely loud and conversations were hard. But most significant, first server had no idea about gluten and the manager couldn’t answer questions. That put little faith into the 2nd server assigned to us and to the kitchens safety. Finally, none of us cared for the dishes we ended up ordering.
Food was good. Had raw oysters, steak with chimichurri. Food was flagged. Very loud, a little cramped.
Great service and great food! Only GF substitute noted on the menu is the pasta but waiter was very knowledgeable and confirmed everything that we asked about with the chef. After we ordered, manager came over to confirm order and let us know GF meal would be marked with a red flag. Our daughter is super sensitive and we did not have any issues!
Good food. Said we were celiac and staff was serious and made sure to avoid cross contamination. Even flagged it with an allergy marker.
The waiter was super knowledgeable about what on the menu was gluten free and made sure to check with the chef on one dish he was uncertain about. Food came out with red flags indicating the dishes were gluten free which is always reassuring. Had the spaghetti bolognese (with gluten free penne), mashed potatoes and coffee ice cream for dessert. All was very good and no reactions!
We got a reservation the same day. We did have to wait for about 15 mins even with reservations. It was really busy and a bit loud. The vibe was very energetic. The waiter - Carlos promptly took our order and checked in on us several times. The food was great and they did have gluten free options if you ask. They marked it with red flags to note the allergy.
Staff was very knowledgeable- doubled checked my order with the kitchen to make sure it could be made gluten free. I had the salmon- a bit spicy, but very good!
Many options on the menu can be accommodated for GF. Additionally, the waitress could very clearly state to me what was GF and how things would be adjusted and that they were not at risk for cross contamination. Just make sure to say you are GF and they are exceptionally good at accomodating for allergies!
Excellent restaurant! Staff was very knowledgeable and understood celiac. They cleaned the area before making my food. Gluten free pasta was amazing!
the staff was very knowledgeable about celiac disease and gluten free, and made sure i could get meats or pastas gluten free. my food came out marked with a little flag to mark it as an allergy! the food was delicious and i also got a desert gluten free! highly recommend!
While options were a bit limited, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable and my food was clearly prepared specially with a GF flag to mark it, and my waiter bringing it out separately. The food was delicious, the drinks were amazing, and the location is adorable!
The staff was nice and knowledgeable. They put a red flag in my food to ensure the kitchen knew about my dietary needs. I had the kale salad and will go back again! It’s delicious. They have a nice drink selection, too.
super knowledgeable, but not many options. there isn’t actually any gluten free bread, pasta, or dessert.
Food was AMAZING! No gluten free menu but waiter was very knowledgeable on what was gluten free and helped me through the menu. No cross-contamination and Good for people with celiac!

Had the burger (no gluten free buns) and fries from a dedicated fryer! Came out with allergen flag, felt very safe. Super cute restaurant and great food!
The server verified any questions I had with the chef. I felt safe eating there and did not get sick.
However the food was not particularly good. They refused to allow a sub of rice for potatoes. The restaurant is very loud.
Genuinely the nicest service experience I’ve had since being GF. Staff is well educated, and a manager comes out to confirm with you. Food comes out with allergy tags. On top of all that, everyone we talked to was just lovely and kind. Highly recommend.
Definitely a positive experience, there was a nice atmosphere and the staff was VERY friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable. The food was very good and came quickly. There was a dedicated fryer for the french fries, but no GF bread for the table or for the burgers.
The menu didn’t mark gluten-free options, but the waitress, hostess, and manager were very knowledgeable and explained their allergen process clearly. I had the chicken Caesar salad and French fries, which were delicious, and they use a dedicated fryer for the fries. I also tried their house-made lemon mint soda, which was refreshing and delightful. Great service, care for dietary needs, and great food!
