As someone with strict dietary needs due to a medical condition, dining out is something I rarely do — not because I don’t enjoy it, but because the anxiety that comes with asking for special accommodations can be overwhelming. Most of the time, I leave restaurants feeling like a burden, or worse, unsafe about what I’ve eaten. But today was different.
I visited this restaurant not knowing what to expect, and what I found was nothing short of incredible.
From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel comfortable without me even needing to explain anything first.
After a thoughtful conversation with the kitchen and staff, they recommended a gluten-free grilled chicken sandwich (something that’s off menu)— and let me tell you, it was the most amazing thing I’ve ever had. Every component was delicious, and it was clear that care went into not just the preparation, but the entire process of making it safe for me to enjoy.
They didn’t rush me, didn’t treat me like a problem, and didn’t make me feel “different.” Instead, they treated me like a valued guest.
This experience gave me something I don’t often get at restaurants: peace of mind — and even joy. I left feeling full, not just from the food, but from the kindness and dignity with which I was treated.
If you have dietary restrictions, or even if you just want a great meal made with care, I can’t recommend this place enough. They’ve earned not just my business, but my gratitude. I wish I would have gotten everyone’s names so I can name them directly, but everyone was just so kind which can be hard to find these days.
Thank you.
