Recently, we went to Mason's in Brewer because I have Celiac and they have a lot of GF items and are consistently good. Our waitress was informed of my diet and we ordered a brussel sprout appetizer to begin. She quickly brought out the order and another waitress rushed to our table as we were raising our forks to our mouths. She told us the soy sauce was not gf and that we shouldn't eat it. Her intervention saved us (especially me) from getting sick. We could not thank her enough and our waitress apologized profusely. Within 5 minutes the chef, Jeremy, came out and was so supportive and interested in making things right. This is the first experience in a restaurant where I have felt someone really cared. That is seldom the case in my experiences. We live 40 minutes away on the coast, but it's worth every mile, every gallon of gas to eat there. You guys are amazing and I so wish you'd open a place on the Blue Hill Peninsula; there's nothing that compares. God bless Jeremy and thanks to you all.
My boyfriend and I stopped here because their menu had their gluten free options clearly labeled which can be a struggle when eating out. Our server was very knowledgeable about the ingredients and was able to recommend an appetizer (Tatsuta Age!) that was absolutely delicious. My boyfriend got sushi which he said was very good and I had the Pho that was everything I was hoping it would be! I will be adding this to my list of safe restaurants to return to in the future.
I was really pleasantly surprised! The burger was cooked exactly as I asked for, it was tasty, the gluten free buns were adequate (and thick), the fries were very delicious and the honey mustard sauce wasn't too sweet or too vinegary! So overall, this just hit the spot and was exactly what I wanted. The server was super nice too, and he was so helpful.
The service rating is just because it took about 15 minutes for anyone to acknowledge there was a line of people waiting to be seated, and I understand it isn't their fault, it's that they are incredibly short staffed it seems, and the people who are there are busting their butts. So I hope they're able to staff up soon and alleviate the pressure from the staff who are going above and beyond as they try to keep it together.
I was so pleasantly surprised by the amount of gluten- free choices that were tasty! My server Tanesha's attentiveness to mine and my child's needs, as well a just being super friendly has guaranteed that this will be a new go-to!
Great place to grab some food. Family friendly. Gluten-free sensitive options on the menu. Good adult beverages. Karaoke. Bands. Overall, it's a great place to cut loose and unwind after a long week at work.
they come in clutch every time! i have a sibling with severe gluten & dairy allergies so the fact that they can accommodate a board with something for everyone is amazing. every time i go to my parents house now i get a “can ya grab one of those charcuterie boards again?”
the ladies are always friendly & super fast!
