Great place if you have celiac family members!

Good service and good food. Also offer gluten free buns. Which are delicious.

Sofia was so great and really listened to my concerns of having gluten free food due to having celiac disease. She was very kind and service was great

Good choices for men with chronic upset stomach on the gluten friendly options.

Still my favorite restaurant, even after loosing my old Google account. I must be a "yuppíe" as Christy Dykes would apparently say. Please Google the definition of "Entree" before saying it's too small. I generally order 2 appetizers, an entree, a dessert, and two millstream sodas. I am a 200lb man after all. I have Celiac and this place has proven itself to me to be celiac-safe time and time again. Also if you are going to use a derogatory biker term, please know what it means, I am 40+, most are older and no one here is pretending to like Harleys. Is being well paid even an insult, lmao. My "father" was in an MC and I hate Harleys. Oh, and go watch South Park "the F-word" to see what most of America thinks about Harley riders these days. If you can't afford it just say so 🤷‍♂️. I am a disabled stay at home Dad, I am paid in smiles. I personally can only afford it twice a year (my wife and I spent $140+ a $20 tip last time) and I go out to eat nowhere else because there is nowhere else that is truly safe for someone with celiac.

Great gluten free menu

Great customer service, waited a bit for first round of drinks but overall good experience. Would be helpful to have a gluten free menu or indicators of gf options on the menu.

You've got to try Crosby's! Great food, fun atmosphere, super service! We heard that they were doing a soft opening this week, so my wife and I went there on opening night. She had the steak, which was amazing! I had the crab-stuffed walleye, which also was excellent. We also tried the crab cakes appetizer (which was very nicely done), and the brie appetizer too (very tasty - and even worked for my gluten-free wife, since she asked for tomato slices with it instead of bread, which she really liked). The cocktails were fun too - we tried a few (the French 75 was amazing). Dessert cheesecake was a very good way to top it off. Overall, a great new addition to the CR downtown dining scene - highly recommended!

They even have real gluten free waffles. Friendly and GF knowledgeable. Really appreciate a GF sensitive restaurant.

This restaurant is the bomb! The food here is great and cook to order, my mom has a gluten intolerance but the bread here doesn't make it act up! Everything feels like they make it from scratch. The pancakes are the best. The only tidbit is the flies around the restaurant and they charge extra if you use card. The people really feel like they care and make sure you're satisfied. Excellent food for American and breakfast. Soul food for real!

Our server was knowledgeable about gluten and was able to help with my food choices. My pulled pork was good and a huge portion without a bun.

Ben put his heart and soul into this creation for my celiac bowels. Thank you! Awesome service. Love Ann

Had lunch here with son #3. He did a high-school project in marketing with the owner. Mmm great stuff. Had the cod pub sandwich with tots as side. My son had gluten free burger. We were both excited about the number of pickles! Plus it was really great tasting! Wow they even toasted the buns (see picture). Just right thx!

I've past by this on the way to Menards for too many years. Today I did it and not just me invited friends and fam to the event of going to Jonsey's. What have I been doing not going here more often? Wow. Everyone was full at the end. My teenager especially remarked he was full so that's a testament. Because he's gluten free they put his pulled pork in a real bowl and served it to him. The fries had a wonderful flavor and great seasonings. We got the mushrooms too. Mmm. Great! And of course the tenderloin! Wow. It was amazing! I got the small this time. I'm debating getting the large next time. Nice simple but clean environment. Friendly service.

We have found a fun, new, nice place! I read about Citywalk recently, and it sounded intriguing, so we tried it tonight. It was wonderful! The venue is lovely, the food was super, and the service was excellent! I had the torsk (cod), and my wife had the sirloin. Both were so tasty! The sides were amazing too, especially the Brussels sprouts (melts in your mouth!). To drink, I tried the flaming old fashioned, which was excellent and nicely balanced. My wife had the blackberry/elderflower, which she truly enjoyed. Dessert was also nicely done - my wife especially enjoyed the key lime pie. Notable is how well they helped my wife with options since she had to eat gluten-free. Trinity was our server, and she did such a wonderful job! Glad to discover this place, and highly recommended!
