The food was solid overall, especially the BBQ chicken, which was tender, juicy, and not dry at all. Ordering is done through a QR code, so there’s limited chance to ask questions upfront. I spoke with staff to confirm gluten-free options due to Celiac and nut allergies. I was told the BBQ meats, rice, chilli, and side salad (no croutons) with balsamic dressing are gluten-free. The coleslaw and cilantro lime dressing are not GF, though that may have been a mistake, as they were unsure if mayo or ketchup contained gluten, which they typically don’t. Both BBQ sauces were confirmed gluten-free. Would still recommend double-checking in person, as ingredient info may change. Avoid anything fried due to a shared fryer. You can also note allergies during the online order process. Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating.

Our WORST dining experience from the past 2 weeks. I am celiac and was so pumped after reading reviews. Even the lady at the car rental place hyped it up. We drove 40 min out of our way before the airport so we could have it as our last meal here. For reference - We ordered to-go at 2:30pm March 7, 2024. The waitress who took our order was horribly rude and acted like we were bothering her by ordering. As a restaurant owner myself, she would have been fired on the spot if I saw that. But by far worst part is we received old, dry chicken that was all bone and no meat. Same with the ribs. Both pieces we could barely chew through. I can’t believe there is a cook that would serve that. It did not look like the picture at all. We tried to make the best of it but joked a Costco chicken would have been 1 million times better. The pulled meat would have been good but the server didn’t include ANY bbq sauce, so that meat was also dry as a result and we had no idea that she didn’t include it until we were already driving. Horrible horrible service and even worse food. If I could give zero stars I would.
