We have allergies in our family and are very nervous when we go out to eat. When we got there, our server, Lia, told us she'd talk to the chef about our allergies, and came back to say the chef would modify whatever meal we wanted to be able to accommodate. When the food was ready, the chef came to our table to talk us through the modifications she made and how she confirmed that the food was safe for us to eat. We've never had a restaurant care that much and pay such close attention to our family's allergen issues. It was such a relief and such a positive experience for us. The food was phenomenal and the people were amazing. We will absolutely return. 12/10 - wonderful experience.
