Had a delicious gluten free sandwich and fries (shared fryer, as I can handle cross contamination). This restaurant (like most these days) struggle with enough staff. We sat at the bar and had to be patient, but the bartender was working her butt off. It was a very good overall experience.

Food was delicious. Have a separate GF menu, just ask for it. Server was knowledgeable and friendly, she went back and asked the kitchen to check on one side that she wasn’t sure was GF.

Service was extremely slow!! It took 30 min just to get our drinks. The entire experience was SO slow!! I had the gf southwest smoked chicken salad. The chicken was extremely over smoked. On the positive side, the strawberry basil marg was delicious!

Ok amount of gluten free selections. Food sounded great but was disappointing. I got the cod soft tacos. I expected to be blown away by flavors listed...chipotle sauce, Pico de gallo, cilantro lime slaw. Somehow it had almost no taste, and the portion of fish included was tiny.

My husband ordered the panini from the regular menu and was presented with sweaty cold cuts on toast. The salami still had plastic casing on the outside! Gross. Two stars because server was nice and we liked the atmosphere. Don't expect to eat here again.
