People are saying

C
We took a chance on this place despite the old reviews here. We were pleasantly surprised that they were able to accommodate our need for gluten-free, even on a super-busy morning. We first asked the hostess, who said they could certainly work with us and cook my daughter's meal on a separate frying pan. They do have gluten-free bread, but not a gluten-free toaster, but were able to grill her toast on the same frying pan. It did seem that they don't usually have requests for gluten-free. The waitress had to go to the kitchen and ask, after we had already sat down. The owner came over and really worked with us, saying that one of the kitchen staff also has celiac and is able to avoid cross-contamination. He checked in on us several times, and made us feel very comfortable and welcome. Great breakfast, great experience and so far, no adverse reactions, so all good!
