I visited last night with a friend who has celiac disease and specifically ordered from your gluten-free menu. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing and concerning. BUT the food in itself for the people i was with who doesnt have her restrictions it was delicious!
Anyways despite checking the menu and ingredients in advance, my friend was first told that her appetizer—listed under the gluten-free section—was not actually gluten free. Then, when her entrée arrived, it clearly contained gluten. She returned the dish and was reassured that the replacement was safe. It wasn’t. She is now experiencing severe symptoms as a result of gluten exposure.
Celiac disease is not a mild intolerance—it’s a serious autoimmune condition. It is absolutely essential that your gluten-free menu be accurate and that your staff be fully informed and trained. What happened last night was not just a mistake—it was a health risk.
Please take this seriously and review your procedures and menu labeling to ensure that guests with celiac disease can dine safely in your establishment.
