Tried out some gluten free loco bread - yum! They've taken it off their menu at the restaurant, but still made it for me anyways since it's on the online menu :) Also, the nirvana dessert is certainly well named. What a treat! Wish I lived closer so I could go back regularly.

Our bachelorette walked in to get our bride some treats and the owner was just about to close, but was more than happy to take us in. She was in a rush to start her daughter’s grad activities and ended up sending us with extra goodies as she had some extra stock left over! Great experience and so happy for her daughter. And do not worry, the treats pack a punch! I’m not usually a fan of gluten/dairy free things, but the chocolate cupcakes were my favourite of the bunch. Thank you and will be visiting again when they have the sold out items!

we stopped in for lunch. We shared the Prawn Cucumber Guacamole appetizer and then I had the Brimm Club. It was fantastic. My wife had one of the appetizers for her meal (sort of a nacho thing), and loved it too. Place looks great and the servers were really nice. Looked like a lot of Gluten Free and Vegetarian options on the menu, if that's something you are looking for.

My spouse and I are celiac, so we wanted to give this place a try. We had the Mac and cheese with pork belly, chicken wings and cheesecake. The food was fine, however we felt it was all quite bland. For the price and the flavor, we won't be ordering again but all in all it was fine if you prefer very mild flavour.

Probably the worst food we have eaten in a long time!
My girlfriend ordered the cauliflower in coconut sauce with veggies and lentils. Hard veggies with no flavour. Dried hump of lentils. Sauce was very bland.
The veggies burger was terrible. Presented like one was eating at Dennys. The pattie had no flavour what so ever.
They charged $5 extra for a gluten free bun!
For the prices they are charging there is no excuse for this kind of experience.
One can literally run to any supermarket and get veggie patties that are flavourful and look like patties.
We were warned by others that the food was very bad. We thought maybe it's subjective. We were wrong.
It's 2025. No reason whatsoever to serve food like this.
It's not 1999. The competition with very little effort does so much better.
A resort/restaurant that charges premium prices, should know better.
Unless they take it for granted?
It's so frustrating having this kind of experience in a place one would expect to have high standards.
Appears after reading past reviews, management isn't paying attention, or they don't care.
