Fried chicken and waffles. Oh my was it good! My son just ordered the chicken while I added the waffles. You get 4 mini GF waffles.

The hot sauce and bourbon honey were amazing as well.

Staff was very knowledgeable and explained they have a separate fryer. We were also told it would take a little longer as it takes a little longer to cook.

Delicious gluten free chicken and waffles. The Brussels sprouts are not labeled gf for some reason, maybe they’re a newer addition, but they are and they are amazing

Amazing experience and food. We ordered the chicken and waffles, potatoes and brussel sprouts! They used a separate fryer and waffle maker, and the server and manager were very knowledgeable so we felt safe. We ordered the deviled eggs which were delicious but quite salty. And then ordered the key lime bar for dessert - yum yum. Can't recommend this place enough.

Plenty of options with very well trained servers. GF fried chicken and waffles and the green goddess salad were both excellent and really distinct takes on the classics. Would totally go back to try more things.
