We came here because of the gluten free options. However, we ordered entrees and my husbands order was delivered without protein. It took about 13 additional minutes to get his protein added. We also ordered a third entree to share- gluten free pork gnocchi. However, when it arrived it was simply rotini pasta with red sauce and sausage. When asked if it was the correct meal, they said yes and that gluten free pasta substitution was rotini. Although that’s fine, when ordering a gnocchi dish it would have been helpful to know we weren’t even getting a variation of that.

They had both gluten-free and vegan options that I could eat. The server/bartender was very helpful and knowledgeable, with helping me alter the menu to meet my dietary needs. It was very busy and crowded, so we sat at the bar to eat. This definitely happens on weekends, it's a popular place! Next time, I will call ahead.
