We had an incredible experience with Sydney as our server and recently also had Marni - both were amazing. Fern who seems to be the manager here was so accommodating with our gluten and dairy restrictions, and even gave us a table outside after we decided to try sitting inside, where it ended up being a little too loud. It’s always great done somewhere, where you don’t feel like a burden for speaking up for what you need and they were stellar in enhancing our experience. Can’t wait to come back 🙏🏼

Bareback grill was great and offers a few great deals that change daily. The food was delicious however if you have a gluten allergy I'm not confident this is a safe spot to eat. My friend has celiac which we let our server know, she flagged our order and we ordered a gluten free bun, made sure the fries had a separate fryer, and got a gluten free cheesecake. Unfortunately it seemed like my friend had a reaction to her food.

If I could give a -5 for service I would! This waitress was so bad and so unprofessional. First of all there was no one in the restaurant and still I had to get up after awhile to get my own menu. Secondly and mainly, I can’t do gluten. I ordered one of the burgers and substituted a gluten free bun. She seemed to be conscious and typed it all in. The food was good. After she came back to go d me the check I saw there was no mention or charge for the gluten free bun. I asked her as I started to realize it probably going to get sick soon…she said she totally forgot to put the gluten free bun on there and I had eaten a regular bun. I had to say I was extremely pissed and could not believe that she messed this simple yet extremely important detail that affects peoples health. She told me she’d go talk to the manager but instead went to go talk to a table for awhile. I left and ran home to get special enzymes that help with this situation. Dealt with pain and headaches for hours. Seriously so pissed I’d never go back and this waitress should be fired.
