They offered to split it three ways, but it turned out to be overly complicated. Overall, the food was great, the service was fair, and the staff were pleasant. We did have one person in our party with a severe dairy allergy and another with gluten intolerance (which was not just a preference). They attempted to accommodate our needs, but unfortunately, they didn’t seem very knowledgeable about allergies. Due to these issues, I would not recommend this restaurant for those with dietary restrictions.
