What started out as a not so good service, was turned in to a good one. My daughter has celiac, and I ordered a gluten free dinner to go. When I arrived home, there was flour tortillas in her meal. I called the restaurant back, talked to the manager Gali. She apologized and hand delivered her a new meal. I can’t thank Gali enough for caring about the service and my daughter condition enough to offer correction. Papi’s, great choice as a manager. Gali, keep up the great work.

Clark was an awesome waiter! Very attentive and had a great attitude. Really loves his Job. Clark also made sure that my order had gluten allergy notes since I have celiac and I really appreciate the attention to detail.

The food is always fantastic - that's a given, but I learned during this most recent visit they are happy to help with dietary restrictions - they have gluten free buns (and they were good!) And they put any ingredients you might be sensitive to on the side (for my husband to enjoy).

It was great and they did their best with my gluten allergy. The brazi cheese bites were my favorite thing.

Love the rustic style of the building, and the delicious ice cream. This ice cream shop is in one of the coolest areas in Lexington. Has great breweries and goodfellas nearby. Also, as a celiac, I can say that this place offers some safe options for gluten free ice cream. One of my personal favorites is the Chocolate Banana. Just be sure to notify staff of your allergy. Definitely a must visit!
