By far the best vegan gluten-free pancake I ever had. My partner is omnivore and also had the best breakfast of his life. The food is farm fresh and absolutely delicious. The restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere too. We will definitely be coming back.

Was very impressed with this restaurant. They offer gluten free meals and that's a plus. There's not many places that does and they are marked on the menu as such. The food was excellent and was well served. Good place to go eat.

Rocktown Kitchen is wonderful! I brought my family here tonight while they were visiting Harrisonburg. Our server, Josey, was wonderful! The service and food were wonderful, there were many gluten free options, and the staff was very knowledgeable about dietary restrictions!

My son and I decided to try Island Wings because they have the patio that we were told was dog friendly. (We take out our babies to town often and look for dog friendly places to eat.) They do have a gluten free menu but I honestly prefer when items are marked gluten free on the regular menu. They were hands down the most dog friendly restaurant we've found. Our server, wish I could remember her name, was great! She immediately got them a bowl of water and even freshened it up after my bullmastiff drank and got drool in it. Out food was good but we were very happy with the portions our dogs got off the doggy menu. We were there on a Saturday but it wasn't busy. It was a nice relaxing atmosphere and a great place to grab a bite to eat especially if your dog is with you.

Very disappointing experience. Harrisonburg is my hometown and I'm here for a visit. Looked for some safe options on food. Location mentions Gluten-free on menu. I asked at the door before ordering my food if the fryer is a dedicated fry fryer or shared fryer as this can cross-contact food. Was told emphatically that it would be safe. Dropped $50 for 2 people on food only to have them come out almost 30 minutes into waiting and tell me they do not have a dedicated fryer and my fries would not be safe. I chose to order here for an entire meal. Had I been informed properly I would have went somewhere safe. I was then simply told sorry, had $5 taken off for the fries, and given some bland brisket and sent on my way. Extremely frustrating experience on my first day in town and handled poorly. Don't advertise Gluten-free without properly training your staff. Also if something like this happens management should be the one stepping up to resolve the issue and it should have been a better resolution that returning my $5 and shrugging it off.
