Really good meal! Lots of gluten free options that were helpfully labeled and the staff was super attentive. We ordered the saganaki (flame cooked cheese), dip of the day which was spicy feta, then also shared the village salad and the combination souvlaki with various meat dishes. The portions were generous. The gyros were a little bland and the chicken was somewhat overcooked but the lamb chops were delicious. Great tzatziki! They did have a 4% surcharge to pay with a card and only a small sign at the entrance about it, so I suggest bringing cash if you have it.

While there aren’t many GF options (just pancakes and oatmeal), I was able to make it work. I had the GF pancakes and the server confirmed they are cooked on a separate surface. They came out flagged as a precaution. Both the server and manager were kind and helpful. The syrup is not GF, but I asked for honey and it worked out well. The pancakes were fluffy and tasty. I wish there were more GF options but overall appreciated the accommodations and helpful staff.

Food was out of this world. Some of the best Thai food I've had. The meats were tender and flavorful. That fried fish was crispy and most. The beef stew flavor was bright, savory, and crisp. Well worth what you pay for it. I would definitely be interested in trying some of those cocktails next time! My friend had the Beef Tallow fried rice and the NY steak on that was epic... Tender, juicy, and cooked to perfection. Order it Medium Rare at the very most.... But rare if you can handle it. You will not be disappointed. Plenty of gluten free and vegetarian options if needed.
