I’ve got celiac disease and this place is amazing. I finally was able get a burger with GF buns (they are few and far between). Kids loved their pizza. And the cocktails were superb.

This was my first visit, a friend had chosen and reserved this restaurant. It’s in a strip mall with easy access to 270 and plenty of parking. The spacious interior is capable of accommodating a large group without interfering with other diners. The waitstaff was very patient, allowing our group of 16 some socializing time as we split into 2 groups of 8 in the sunny front room. The waiters were receptive and attentive to gluten-free, vegan, and dairy-free concerns, unflinchingly writing up separate checks. Complimentary bread with seasoned olive oil was brought to the tables as soon as we were settled. Multiple menus were on the tables, and on the Saturday when I visited, brunch was available in addition to the regular menu. The menu offerings are varied; there is something for everyone: from burgers to poke bowls, eggs to vegan options, and sirloin to salads. I had the Cobb Salad, which at $18 was pricey (like $5 too much) but was tasty. Overall, the prices seem high, but the accommodation to our large group was worth it.

Had the pleasure of being served by Maria at the bar! She was knowledgeable about the menu and offered a great gluten free option (shrimps and grits). She was also very attentive with all of her guests. Their grit is a patty as oppose to the traditional way to serve and I enjoyed it more this way! I also had a vegan-gluten free milkshake that was amazing!

We ordered the curated bowls which were so good. Everything is vegan, gluten free and organic. Nice atmosphere with a nice outdoor sitting area. Employees were so friendly. Can’t wait to return and try the cauliflower wings and smoothies.
