Review


I have mixed feelings about this place. The waiter’s response to my several allergies was: we use soy oil for everything, you can have a salad (the worst thing to hear!). I kept asking questions though until finally he asked the chef and the chef came out. Once that happened, we were able to find some safe options like the guacamole, the carrots, the burger with lettuce instead. Nothing super exciting. The food was well done and I really appreciate the chef coming out to help, but they do not go out of their way to accommodate for allergies with things like gluten free bread or pastas. Very pretty view but I preferred F&B because of their attitude about my allergies.
