Ordered a gluten free charcuterie board off of the gluten free lunch menu for my 8-year-old daughters who both have celiac disease. Checked the menu at the hostess stand before even sitting down, just to make sure it was a celiac friendly restaurant. The hostess brought it to the table…it was GORGEOUS! We were thrilled that such a beautiful dish was gluten free! My daughters immediately started eating. Several bites later, the server comes up, starts snatching things off of my daughters’ plates, and says “this isn’t the gluten free bread” and starts collecting just the bread…that already touched the cheese and meat. He said “it’s okay, they only took a few bites of the bread”. And I said “it’s actually not okay; they’re severely allergic” and he just walked off in silence…ignoring me. Every time he came to the table after that, he wouldn’t speak or make eye contact. It was so awkward. Literally weirdest experience in a restaurant ever. We boxed up the cheese and meat and brought it home to feed our dog. $200 bill for what should’ve been a pleasant, happy lunch; and I’m dealing with severe allergic reactions this evening and sick kids. Do not recommend for allergy families or anyone with dietary sensitivities.

My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful dinner! The gluten free duck flatbread was delicious. My husband raved about the osso bucco and my lazy paella with shrimp was very good. Matthew did an outstanding job as our server with plenty of helpful suggestions. Highly recommend!

Delicious food and drinks, friendly service, and great atmosphere right next to the river. Very good with food allergies or preferences, such as gluten free with an entire gluten-free menu. Always love coming here.
