    Haven’t been to the refuge in a couple months and it looks like they changed their menu. This is particularly concerning for my husband who has a gluten allergy and the gluten-free items are not 100% gluten-free. They are gluten free after modification. This had a severe impact on my husband‘s ability to enjoy his meal as what he was used to eating before was no longer available And couldn’t find a replacement that was fully satisfactory.

    Eric, our waiter, was very good. He was attentive, helpful with the menu, and took excellent care of us. The food was amazing and the restaurant ambiance is incredible. We’ll definitely be recommending and returning.

    Great food as always and we were able to get seated earlier than our reservation, as we got there early. We’re disappointed that we did not get our requested server, Jennifer J, but we did see her there.

    We sat outside, it was a bit chili, not enough heaters. I think during the chili times, you should move tables closer together to share heaters. Otherwise, everything was terrific!
