We had the Kiwi sour and honey crisp spritz to drink, both were light and perfectly crafted. Only down side to Adelaide is it’s soooooo loud!

- KKayleighAtlantic Canada •6 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoThis was my first experience and I have to say I was very pleased! The service was awesome! I have celiac and staff reassured me how careful they are in the kitchen with GF platters. (There were so many great GF options, for once I felt like a normal human ordering from a menu and not forced to choose between one or two options) The food was SO good and surprisingly very well priced! The beef tacos were to die for! I was so surprised to find out all dessert offerings were gluten free which never happens! I was so happy that we got TWO desserts! What a presentation, and both so delicious! The overall experience was amazing and we will for sure be back again and again!More infoLIVPrice: Moderate• Fusion / Eclectic• St. John's•4.8
