The food was delicious. And the atmosphere was just what I would want from an upscale pub. The one issue was I had to do my order 3 times. Once with the original waitress, once bc of a gluten sensitivity which I had explained to the waitresses and once to the person serving it bc there was no Cheese on my cheese burger. Otherwise great.

Food is great. I love that they have a gluten free menu. However, I believe the restaurant should allow for other dishes included on the regular menu to have gluten free options. For example, I wanted shrimp and broccoli dish but gluten free. Although they mentioned it would be an easy thing to do, the workers mentioned the owner does not allow it.

I am Celiac. The staff was very respectful of my allergy. They were very knowledgeable and made me feel at ease. Best pizza I have had in a very long time! 1000 out of 10 stars. Thank you for making me feel at ease with eating pizza.

Great atmosphere and the food was delicious. My friend was celebrating his birthday and he absolutely enjoyed his steak! I like that there are gluten-free options as well. Our waiter brought my friend a delicious piece of tiramisu with a candle in it. He said his steak was the best he had tasted. I have taken colleagues here for lunch and had great compliments on the food.

Unfortunately, I dislike my experience. I had the Nonna Gravy. Honestly, I thought the dish lack soul. The sauce felt rush and the meat could have been more tender. I literally had a stomach ache. My delivery side note was not taken serious at all. I politely ask for a side salad instead of rigatoni because I'm gluten free. I was given a side salad plus garlic bread. Not cool.

The food was fresh and tasty-and the order came out quick. The seating area is limited, so you may get split up if you have a few people. I have Celiac and was able to have a safe meal of steak tacos, beans and rice.

My girlfriend and I go here all the time. We love to the harbor to listen to the blues musicians they have perform there. Food is great and they have gluten free options for my girlfriend!
