Went to dine in tonight for the gluten free experience was super excited but was so disappointed from the food to the service. Everyone round us was being served and tented to while I was left with empty drinks and no service at all. Service was horrible and the was hoping at least the food was going to be good but it was the worst gluten free dish I’ve had at a restaurant. Very disappointed

The food here is excellent. We loved that we had the regular menu option and a totally different menu for glutten free meal options! My daughter saod the glutten free pasta was so good! Made this birthday supper surprise even better. Thanks Fifi for the excellent service and the little extra for the birthday girl! 5 stars is well deserved!

This is our second time here. The food is very good but there were a few issues.
We had the stuffed mushroom appetizer. It was slightly acidic which made it not quite to the level we expected that we had last time.

I had the chicken parmesan with Alfredo pasta. The pasta was amazing! Very creamy and flavourful. The chicken had some burnt edges which made for a bit of a tough meal. The flavour was excellent though. VERY generous portion. I have enough for lunch tomorrow.
We also had the lasagna with side Caesar salad. It looked like it had two sauces, one with seasoned tomatoes and one that was more of a ragout. The combination was very tasty. Unfortunately, there was a portion near the centre that was cold. Also very generous and we have some to take home.
The service was excellent and we didn't have to wait much for our food.

Food was good, service was slow but maybe they were understaffed. We had a long wait to receive our drinks and plates. 30 mins after ordering we were informed that some of the drinks were not in the menu. And one of the vegan orders we received did not arrive with vegan cheese.
Al in all, I would try again in the hopes that this was a rare day for them.
We did have a reservation so there was no wait for a table.

Food is made with good quality ingredients and service was definitely good. But the taste is mediocre unfortunately…

Garlic bread is pretty generic bread with some butter and they didn’t bother doing both sides of it either.

I do not like that the lowest tipping option is 18% for what is an already a pricey restaurant.

As somebody with celiac disease, this is one of my favourite restaurants ever. Both the food and atmosphere are exceptional :) My friend and I came here last month for my birthday and had a fantastic dinner. I got free crème brûlée and our server Maelle was truly the sweetest! We’ll be back :)

It was an amazing experience. Although it’s not an exclusively GF place the restaurant is certified GF. The staff is very well trained about celiac disease, and extremely friendly. The food was delicious, and they can accommodate someone who is dairy-free as well. I highly recommend this place.
