THIS PLACE IS INCREDIBLE! I have celiac disease so finding gluten free options can be tough. I messaged the restaurant in advance and they said there were a handful of options. I’m so glad I gave it a shot because those options turned out to be the best dinner I’ve had on this island. The miso cod is heavenly. They marinate it for three days and it shows. I fell in love. But what really floored me was the cheesecake. They made a gluten free one just for me, with a meringue base instead of crust. There was pineapple sorbet at the top. I died and went to heaven. And finally, the service was the nicest I’ve ever experienced on this planet. I don’t know what they’re paying their staff but everyone needs a bonus. They seemed happy just to take our plates! It was an overall warm, friendly and delicious experience. I almost cried.

I have the celiac disease (gluten free intolerance) We were informed that it was a gluten free place, but they only have 3 gluten free options and they are all appetizers, one being miso soup, edamame and 1 tofu salad. They didn’t even try to accomodate us at all. Not inclusive!
