Had a wonderful meal and the best waiter ever, Baru made us feel totally welcome and nothing was too much trouble. There was a great selection of gluten-free options for me and the food was cooked to perfection. A lovely experience!

A bit disappointing for several reasons; 1. The limited gluten-free options on entree meant that one of our party could only have main, and we believed dessert. 2. This is the first time I’ve encountered a Pad Thai that couldn’t be made gluten-free. I’m not disputing that, I’d far rather the request be unavailable than incorrect but a check on this would be good. 3. Advised that whipped cream had gone runny overnight, asked if we wanted to proceed with or without. This would have also been a good time to answer earlier questions about dessert. 4. We asked the young lady serving us to check that the ice cream dessert was gluten-free, instead we were told after the dessert was delivered and there was no consideration for either taking it back or even an alternate suggessted, a bit awkward for the table. Other than that I enjoyed the food and setting, am really hoping that we just encountered you on a bad day.
