Vincent was an excellent server. This restaurant could use a little refresh in the entry but I do like the local art in the dining area. For a restaurant being so progressive with it's menu and careful with gluten/vegan cuisine I do not understand why there are not markings on the menu. Disappointed in allergens not being marked especially since this is a sister restaurant to Wheat Penny who despite the name actually does gluten allergy notices excellently. Tonight I had a herb vinaigrette salad. I feel like someone was trying to be unique with the dressing. I've had a lot of vinaigrettes and salads. I never dislike a salad. I did not like it. The olives were oddly flavored. The cheese was good, but the dressing had herbs de provence or something odd in it I couldn't put my finger on. I feel like that's such an acquired to be taste, it should be mentioned or the dressing needs to be renamed or reformulated to be more like a goddess. It said it was lemon and didn't taste like lemon or vinegar or oil. Mostly avocado and herbs. I highly recommend the caprese toast on gluten free bread. That's one of the best things I've had in a long time. The tomatoes were red, fresh, and juicy. The burnt peach and macadamia nut cheesecake was not it. I feel like it has a lighter feel with more egg/custard taste than cheese. Needs more sugar and more cream cheese, more brown sugar crumble. Pass the burnt top and replace by peach jam or something like that. I hope they are as celiac friendly as was shared by server. I'll report back. **Can't notice specific issues with gluten. Also the two-tops were too close to each other to have no music playing. There needed to be background music because it was near impossible not to hear the entirety of the next conversation. One table should be removed in that row. Although the restaurant met our needs that day I wouldn't be swift to return, but can recognize the value of a locally owned place with a strong following.

Terrible customer service. They ran out of regular buns. All they had were chipotle or gluten-free buns, which you have to pay additional money for. That was not properly explained. Why make the customer pay additional money when you are at fault. When I asked to speak to a Manger to have the additional charges taken off, some rude and unprofessional person told me it was my fault for not choosing to have the burgers without a bun.

The BEST restaurant I've been to in Dayton! This place goes above and beyond any expectation that I have for any restaurants. The hot tea was served in a French press, they created a house salad for me that was vegan and gluten free, and the rosemary potatoes and the zucchini were so absolutely amazing that I can't wait to order them again soon. You can see the little extra special touches in the pictures like the fact that they bring the fancy teacup with a little plate with a stirring spoon, a glass jar of honey, and the most delicious salad dressing I think I've ever had in my life was served in a glass dessert cup with spoon. I sent a tip to the cook, and I have only done that maybe twice in my entire 46 years. You seriously cannot go wrong here. I am ultra-picky, have lots of allergies, and cannot think of a place I'd rather eat.

Checked out Eudora for the first time, and it was wonderful! They were having a Fall Festival event with vendors, which added to the atmosphere. The food is EXCELLENT! I had the flight of tacos. All were delicious, but I especially liked the carnitas. It was a perfect flavor balance of toppings with meat. My partner had the Hot One burger, which he really enjoyed. But the spinach artichoke dip was beyond fantastic (eat it with the bread or chips.... Both are phenomenal). The beers were tasty. Just a fair warning: they don't cell wine, ciders, or "giggle water" on Sundays (which is unfortunate for anyone who has gluten restrictions). Otherwise, great environment, food and drinks. Definitely a 5 out of 5.

We visited the Pine Club for our first time last night. We arrived around 6 and it was an hour wait. The bar is a decent size with a vast drink menu. I had the Pine Cabernet and for $10 it was good. There are very generous on the pours as well. I have heard great things about their steaks and I would give my filet a thumbs up. It was a tad under cooked but not anything to complain about. Teresa was our server and she did a great job. She mentioned she had worked there for 22 years and was very kind about questioning the chef regarding gluten allergy. I would recommend they step up there side game. The garlic potatoes were very good. All in all we had a good experience. It's awesome they include a whole meal (salad, side, and meat) in the price. The salad didn't have much for toppings. It very dim light so don't worry about getting fancy. Well done Pine Club. I would recommend people to try your establishment.

This place has a nice vibe. We went in for a late dinner and sat at the kitchen bar, which was fun. I was most excited to try the Brussel sprouts but was a little disappointed. It's an amazing presentation but they are just a little too . . . much, for me. Literally, a friend and I shared the dish and I still took a large portion home, and figuratively, it was just so rich and sweet, my palette got tired of the dish after just five bites or so. The beet salad was interesting. But the scallops were fantastic - I don't think I've ever had a scallop more perfectly cooked! The house sangria was very tasty. The service was excellent as well. There are several other dishes I'd like to try from their menu and I'm impressed with the number of gluten free and vegan or vegetarian dishes.

This was definitely a hidden gem. We got in and it wasn't crazy busy on a Saturday night. We will definitely be back

I feel aweful after eating gluten and they took so much time going through the menu with me. They were very knowledgeable on which items did or didn't have gluten and offered substitutions. For example, any sandwich can be made into a salad. They have gluten free bread for sandwiches and the merengue is gluten free and delicious! Coconut bars are gluten free as well.

The pizza breadsticks were a travesty. 3 of the regular breadsticks cut in half to make 6, with 2 slices of white cheese covering them (each slice covering 3 half breadsticks), and 2 pepperonis per half bread stick. The breadsticks could have been from the day before because it was so oily you wouldn't know any different. The Gluten Friendly Chicken Pesto Rotini was good. I'm not gluten free but the chicken pesto sounded good tonight. I couldn't tell the pasta was gluten free. Good amount of sauce and cheese which they are occasionally light on. They didn't over do the pesto either. This was a take out order. Would have been 4 stars if not for the pizza breadsticks. I've gotten take out from this location several times and it has been good quality. I recommend it if you are looking for a Fazolis or fast food Italian just don't get the pizza breadsticks.
