Fantastic! Such a great experience. The gin and tonic was wonderful and not at all a standard g&t. The lobster with kimchi mayo was wonderful. Just a hint of spice to compliment the sweetness of the lobster. The tomato sauce with beef tounge was great. Such a fantastic texture. And the sauce was wonderful. Lots of gluten free options. The grilled veggies were flavorful, sand a great side to the meats.

Fancy and amazing food, gorgeous, romantic, but very expensive. GLUTEN -FREE PASTA! A great place to take a date. Especially since it was attached to a hotel. Parking issues though.

It's wonderful to find a sushi place that has designated gluten free sushi. Will be coming back for sure. We ordered via door dash and had it delivered to our hotel. We were impressed with the flavor and unique gluten free options. Unfortunately we were not given any gluten free soy sauce with our order so we had to eat the sushi plain. That wasn't our expectation or intention so can't say that was enjoyable for the high price of the food. Had they given GF soy sauce, it would be a 5 star review, for sure!

Their vegan options are actually good. Not just sorbet, which is so not a replacement for ice-cream. The soy ice creams are good, they usually have 2 flavors. Blueberry is my favorite, but it was switched out for strawberry at the moment. Their gluten free and vegan cookies are delicious and there's several options. Also, their regular cookies and ice cream are good...obvs.

Cozy fun atmosphere in the market. Great flavor. Gluten friendly crust is soft and flavorful but does not fall apart. Not a place for celiac, but great for those of less sensitivity.

Asian Fusion menu. The food is pretty good. The place feels more like a pub than a restaurant, but is pleasant and the service is excellent. Plenty of vegetarian and gluten free options.

Varied menu and good service. The menu includes several gluten free entries. The staff are knowledgeable about special dietary requirements. I had Chilean sea bass and it was delicious! The only drawback is that it can get quite noisy.

The folks here were understanding of my peanut intolerance and switched in beef when I informed of gluten intolerance as well. Great food in a good location.
