I was so impressed with their food and service! I’m the only celiac in a family of five, and this was the best full dining experience I’ve had in a long while.

They made sure I had my own pot, and that my food was all GF, including the bread, the best brownie I’ve ever eaten, the meats, veggies, and sauces. Hunter and Julia, our servers were super helpful and knowledgeable. What they didn’t know, they made sure to double check.

Warning though: it is not cheap! ($200 for three people, including the tip.)

Over all fun experience and the chocolate fondue was great. However, they were not knowledgeable about cross-contamination and accidentally brought out the wrong gluten-containing sauce and food for my meal even thought I told them I had the allergy so I ended up sick.

The server knew exactly what I was talking about when I told her I had celiac disease. She was very knowledgeable about the ingredients in the food. The gluten free options were clearly labeled on the menu. Great experience!

I had a great experience here. When I made my reservation I asked about gf and the guy taking the reservation was very knowledgable. When we got there our waitress was great and the menu was clearly marked for gf with a lot of options.

Went there for a birthday celebration. Wonderful cheese fondue, but the best is the entrees. Peppered steak is amazing when you cook it in the broth. Next time I think I will get all beef and seafood. They are very careful about bring separate fondue cookers for those who are celiac.

UPDATE: Came back for a second time and again my food all tested gf with my Nima sensor, and I had no reaction. I always request a separate pot from the people I’m with and they are super accommodating with that. Waiter was very knowledgeable and asked if I was celiac. Super nice people and great food!

The food was great, and they even had vegan cheese and chocolate (I can’t eat dairy). I could hardly tell that the cheese was vegan. The waiter was very knowledgeable and let me know that some of the gluten free dippers (bread and desserts) had dairy in them. I tested everything with my Nima sensor and it all came up gluten free. I’m very sensitive and I didn’t get sick.

I love coming here! They bring out fully gf dippers. Most of the cheeses, broths, and chocolates are gf already but a few aren’t. The menu is clearly labeled and servers are very good about it.

I had a wonderful evening while on a business trip. The experience was amazing and the food was not only great, but fun. My server was very knowledgeable about gluten intolerance and helped me through the menu and ordering. All 4 courses were amazing and I will eat here again.
