Absolutely phenomenal experience! My SIL has Celiac disease and it was so lovely to get AMAZING food and not have to worry about gluten at all. And man, can they make killer gluten free bread! All of our entrees were delicious and the staff was super kind and on top of things. Not to mention the killer drinks. Highly highly recommend :)
