Naive Latin Inspired Kitchen + Bar

This was lovely. As a human with gluten intolerance it gets old feeling like I have to apologize for asking what the ingredients are and explaining why and what half the time in restaurants. Here, everything is clearly marked, our waiter asked about preferences right up front and was able to say what menu items to avoid and how other menu items could be easily modified. He was fantastic. The food and cocktails were delicious as was the ambience.

Went here to treat my gluten-free girlfriend for her birthday dinner. I've never paid so much for such a horrible dining experience. New fall menus had several typos and inconsistencies. Clearly had not been proofread or checked for accuracy-- lazy. At a restaurant known for dietary restriction accommodations, they were completely out of gluten-free buns for my girlfriend's burger and the meat patty diameter was smaller than McDonald's. Barely a tablespoon of shredded cheese on top. Our "crispy" potatoes were undercooked, cold, soggy, and completely unseasoned. Tried to replace them with mashed potatoes, and they asked to charge us for it. Insulting when potatoes cost less than a dollar each at the grocery store. My $35 dollar steak was also COMPLETELY unseasoned. I ordered medium rare, and somehow the outside was completely charred and brittle with no seasonings to "blacken." Stovetop was too hot clearly, yet the steak came out room temp. I couldn't finish it. I've had better steaks at Waffle House. It was supposed to come with caramelized pearl onions, and when my plate was brought to me they were no where to be found. Server came back saying the kitchen had no idea why pearl onions were included on the menu and they didn't even have pearl onions. It was advertised with black garlic aioli, and there was only a pitiful drop. Literally less than a ketchup packet's worth. The olive oil cake tasted like rubber cement. The food gave me such a bad stomach ache, I ended up throwing up when we got home. Gnats were flying around us the entire dinner, and the music was too loud and overstimulating. Her gin & thyme cocktail was the only thing that tasted salty, and my $18 bourbon cocktail was smaller than my fist and short-poured. Tasted more like a popsicle than bourbon, and was less liquid than a baby bottle. I didn't want to cause a fuss on such a special night and embarrass my girlfriend, so I didn't send anything back. It's not the fault of the server, she was very quick with service and friendly. This was a horrible first impression for me, and I definitely won't be coming back. My girlfriend had been there before, but she said they've gone downhill. After you spend $120+ on a romantic birthday dinner for two, you don't want your girlfriend to say "How can we still salvage the night from that? I'm so disappointed" as soon as you get in the car. It's rare I feel actually robbed after a dining experience, but I won't be coming back and plan on telling all my friends to save their money.

my sister and i were elated to find a vegetarian forward restaurant that catered to dairy/gluten free diets, as well as nut free and vegan for those who want that. we got a snack plate, appetizer, main dish, and dessert (all shared between the two of us) AND a bottle of wine, 1/2 bottles on tuesday rocks, and we didn’t break the bank. with the quality and portion of food i think it was reasonably priced and ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. most notably the tempura cauliflower and the sauce it came with, wow!! the salmon dish was cooked beautifully with a skin so crispy it melted in our mouths. the decor was simple, eclectic, and well thought out. we loved our time here and look forward to coming back when we are in town! thank you jesse for adding to our experience and making it all the more lovely :)
