Excellent gluten free menu. Gluten free pancakes were very good. Nice size cups of coffee and servings for that matter. Really friendly staff. Also, quick service.

Grotto is the best pizza. Gluten free deep dish pizza is awesome. Nice salads too.

One of the best dining experiences we've ever had! Plenty of dairy- and gluten-free options! After Spain Wine Bar was recommended to us, my husband and I recently went there to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. I always look at menus online beforehand because of my dietary restrictions (dairy and gluten). Even though I had already found plenty of options, I told our server, Daniel, about my dietary restrictions. But I didn’t expect what happened next. He went and consulted with the chef. A few minutes later, he returned with the menu with some items crossed out entirely and others with only certain options crossed out. He confirmed what I could and could not eat, which you might think is part of his job and what any good server should do. And it is. But if you’re like me and have food allergies, you know this does not usually happen. (The server might seem bothered. They might not be as willing to ask about ingredients. They might make you feel like you’re inconveniencing them.) There were no desserts available that I could eat. I was OK with that. I was content with my drinks as my dessert. But Daniel came out with a surprise dessert that was not on the menu that my husband and I could both eat. It was such a nice surprise, and it was delicious! Daniel took my food allergies as an opportunity to provide a special and memorable experience. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend! The food was amazing!! The icing on the cake was also getting to practice my Spanish.

My husband and I ate here for the first time and just before sunset. Loved the atmosphere, especially watching the sunset from the main dining area. Munir was our server. He was prompt, responsive, attentive and personable. I warned him I would be the problem diner with my dairy and gluten allergies, LOL. He was great about it. He consulted with the chef about what I was interested in eating. Food was awesome. I had the steak and bites of my husband's catfish. Everything was delicious. My husband loved the Mississippi Mud. I liked the cosmos. LOL. Highly recommend! We will definitely be back. Thanks, Munir!
