Classic New York style diner with all the usual breakfast options. Massive portions, you would need to be hungry to finish your meal! Full GF menu, our Coeliac daughter had waffles and they were delicious, no ‘tummy’ after effects! The only slight issue we had was that the server brought all 4 plates together stacked up along his arm meaning a plate with my toast was sitting on top of my daughters GF plate, increasing the chances of cross contamination. I’d have preferred if the GF food were brought out separately. Otherwise, all was good, very friendly staff, enjoyable breakfast.

This place was amazing! They have gluten free chicken tenders and fries! If you are gluten free you will love these tenders and fries, they were amazing! I loved their honey mustard dipping sauce and their signature sauce was great as well. The staff was super helpful and even helped me find their restaurant over the phone because the geolocation was off when I was using walking directions.

GLUTEN FREE GOODNESS!!! Just let your server know you are GF/Celiac and they will make sure you get everything GF! Most al the sauces are already GF yet they ensure especially if you order the larger family courses that you are also able to enjoy them!

Juanita was an excellent server. She was very attentive without feeling overbearing. We had a late reservation and even so she never betrayed any sense of annoyance or tried to rush us out the door. Our cocktails arrived promptly and she was very informed about celiac allergies and provided a gluten-friendly menu immediately. The food was pretty good, but the service brought the restaurant to five stars. Big thank you to Juanita and the rest of the staff for making us feel comfortable and settling Us in for a nice meal.

Specifically asked for gluten free and the dish came with a flag, but I got a reaction. This is not the first time it’s happened in this location, which is why I hadn’t been back in 2 years. Please take care of allergies better.

Without a doubt Andrea and her team deserve top marks for both the staff, the place and a little emphasis on the fact that they have GLUTEN FREE meals! A crazy person with a lot of CHARM.
