Pharm Table Reviews

We had an exceptional dinner at this restaurant. They use ultra-fresh ingredients - combined in some truly creative preparations - every bite was to tasty! Our party of six started with some shareable appetizers, including ceviche, guacamole (with some unique ingredients), and a vegetable tray. All were superb. Oh and we had some outstanding cocktails. A friend had a unique mezcal cocktail served in a bowl, with yummy infused botanicals. Other folks had interesting variations on gin-and-tonic, paloma, and caribbean-ish drinks. All wonderful! The restaurant encourages sharing, but I hogged my salmon entree - outstanding fish seared to perfection. Others in our group had vegetarian mains. ... And we shared amazing desserts. The menu is very plant-forward, so "steak and potatoes" folks may not be into it. (Although the short rib entree looked good.) Anyway: We'll definitely go back next time we're in San Antonio.

We had an all-around great experience at Pharm Table in Southtown San Antonio last night. It was a gorgeous evening and the open-air patio was open for service. Starting with drinks at the bar, we tried the Nuevo Vida and the Micro Flora, two botanical cocktails with Mezcal. We enjoyed watching the bartender torch the cinnamon stick and rosemary sprigs he added to our beverages. (The rosemary was harvested fresh from the PT garden.) The Micro Flora is served in a jícara - a hand-carved gourd - which made it especially fun to drink. We moved to a table for two and split the Peruvian Nikkei Ceviche with Faroe Isle Salmon (Turmeric leche de tigre, toasted sesame, and sweet potato) and Beet Chia Hummus (Hemp almond cream, heirloom beets, super seeds, cilantro oil served with heirloom corn tortillas). Then we ordered the Chapuline Glazed Salmon (Oaxacan chapuline oil, guacamole, radish slaw, blistered tomato, heirloom corn tortillas). The meal was filling without making us feel like we'd overeaten, so we ordered dessert: Pecan Almond Shortcake (Seasonal Texas fruit compote, tonka bean, coconut cream) and Avocado Chocolate Mousse (Peruvian cacao, raw sugar syrup, raw cacao nibs, berries). I am not usually much into dessert, but the shortcake was out-of-this-world tasty. As for service, it was a busy night but the staff was very attentive and it was evident that everyone enjoyed their workplace. Chef Elizabeth Johnson stopped by our table to ensure we were enjoying our meal (and to share information about how the desserts were prepared). One note about parking. Pharm Table validates for 90 minutes, but we thought we might be longer and parked on the street adjacent to the restaurant, where there were plenty of spots.

It was overall the worst dining experience I have ever had. The service was poor. I had to ask multiple servers to check on the bottle of wine we ordered, and it still took over 40 minutes to arrive. The appetizer was a shared dish, but we had no plates. When I called our server over, she apologized and said they do this all the time and laughed. She walked away to get them, but never returned. I had to ask a second server 10 minutes later who brought it immediately our server never ended up coming back. . We ordered three dishes. The first was ok, but did not come out as requested. The second was the green goddess salad . It was supposed to have roasted vegetables, but the okra was raw and inedible. The last was the sweet potato kitchari. There was a spice in it, I believe nutmeg, that was not thoroughly mixed in. Some bites were bland and others so pungent it was difficult to swallow. At no time did our server check on us or ask about our food.

Beautiful restaurant. I travel frequently. I typically google "farm to table" and "wine bar"... naturally this popped up. Nice 12 min walk from downtown hotel. Really cool area, developing, has some funk and cool restaurants. I really can't say enough about Pharm Table. I've been probably 7 times now. Every time, the service is tip-top, friendly staff, unique/creative menu and *quality food*. I just get so tired of mediocre food priced high...not here. Staff explains your food when they serve it. Just really well done. I can't recommend this place enough- a must visit. Nice ourfoor space too.

The workers are great. However, the food portions are ridiculously small for an amazingly high price (yes I realize that they are from Local Farms, but still very high). They seem to offer pharmaceutical benefits with no proof and the food is often bland for someone using fresh ingredients. If healthy, gluten free, vegan food is your thing, this is great, but be prepared to pay $15 for a salad that wouldn't even pass as a side salad at most places.

Great menu. Love the new location. Sat on the patio and enjoyed an iced tea and the enchiladas which were delicious! I also had the cheesecake for dessert! Yum!!

Really fresh and interesting meals. Not your average restaurant fare, not by a long way. Amazing vegan choices, with plenty of options for meat eaters too. Informal setting, with rustic tables and furniture. Order at the bar, they bring it out. Very friendly staff.

While attending a conference in downtown San Antonio, my friend and I found this delightful restaurant a short walk away. If you love to get away from tourist fare and enjoy a peaceful, nourishing, made to order meal, this is the place! I ordered the pizza (something I rarely eat due to my sensitivities) and my friend ordered the sweet potato waffles. Holy Moly!! Everything was SO good; my body hummed as I ate. Just note, Pharm Table is only open for lunch.

The BEST restaurant to eat organic, local and amazing food! If you are into plant-based this is the place to go. Unique flavors, refreshing aguas frescas, this is comfort food as it beast, food that nourish your body and soul. Can't wait to try some of their desserts.

This is a super fresh ultra healthy restaurant. This place offers the freshest food I have had in awhile. There appetizers wonderful palate cleansers and soothing tummy starters. They have the freshest pressed juices have ever had. We personally had the GINGER MEAL STARTER, which was a perfect blend of citrus pickled ginger. We then had the probiotic plate which did wonders for our tummy. We both had the HUEVOS MESOAMERICANOS, which had some of the freshest eggs, black beans, avocado we have ever had. They also have amazing healthy "mocktails" which were refreshing and delicious. The ambiance was super cool and the music was a lively Latin flavor. The service was outstanding. From the hostess to our server it was the perfect balance of needs and wants without being too much. We would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for a very refreshing detox meal or just an overall healthy meal. They do offer unique craft beers and wines, but we did not sample any of those.

Too Expensive to have to pay for parking… The food and drinks are good but not worth having to pay extra for parking! There are many nearby restaurants that serve delicious food and drinks where you don’t have to pay extra for parking.

We were visiting San Antonio and wanted something other than the tourist focused restaurants on the Riverwalk. We found this and were glad we did. It is mostly vegetarian but you can add meat to any fish. It was very good and I can not remember a more colorful lunch! My wife loved it, which was nice!

As vegetarians, its always a challenge to find a really great restaurant in a new city. Within walking distance of the Alamo, the Pharm Table is worth a visit. They are open 7 days a week for lunch only. The chef uses many unique vegetables with surprising spices. in two visits we tried four different salads and bowls and were totally impressed. There is an on-line cook book and cooking lessons available for those who want to recreate the experience at home. The setting is somewhat industrial looking but the tables are widely spaced as well as outside seating. The décor is cookbooks reflecting the influences on the menu. Staff were very helpful and attentive and prices were reasonable. Anyone will like this food - not just vegetarians because animal protein is offered with each dish.

Absolutely my favorite place in San Antonio. As someone who has worked the entire spectrum of the service industry and as someone who enjoys both sides of meticulous service, there are few things that impress me more than a dining experience that cultivates just the right ambiance, service, food, drinks, and overall energy. Pharm Table achieves beyond that. Not only a hip/chic/warmly-welcoming/aesthetically-elevated/delicious experience, dining here nurtures a person body, mind, and spirit. I'm so glad people are starting to catch on- I've always thought it was the weirdest thing the place wasn't packed every evening from open to close. Elizabeth is a genius and her management team goes above and beyond to accommodate. I can't praise Luma and Nathan highly enough. I recommend making a reservation in advance if you want a table because the word has gotten out!

This restaurant was reviewed in the paper as being an excellent restaurant. My friend, who is a real health foodie, took me there for lunch. You order at the counter, and the person taking the order seemed nice and knowledgable. We ordered a special appetizer that was served on a spoon containing tumeric, ginger, salt, and a few more things on it. Maybe it is good for you but it tasted awful. I was starving, and thought that lunch would be better. We both ordered the three taco plate. Ugh! neither of us liked them and picked a few things to eat out of them trying to salvage the meal. Over all, they were much to hot-spicy, and had weird ingredients in them that do not resemble a taco, or particularly go together. Add that they tasted really salty, which I wouldn't think is good for you. I definitely suggest that you skip this place unless you are a food sadist and want to waste a little money.

Amazing menu of quality food and drinks. Clean, healthy eating with great taste that leaves you full but not heavy.

The Good: Food quality, service and atmosphere were outstanding. The Bad: Menu selection, portion size and prices were ridiculous. The Ugly: A 3% tax is added to your bill for the kitchen. You must pay to park. For a meal that consisted of zucchini the size of a side salad and huevos rancheros, $60 US dollars. This amount included the tip and parking. We left hungry, disappointed and amazed this place was in business in Texas. We will not be returning. Furthermore, we plan to ensure our family and friends are informed.

As a long time vegetarian, I appreciated the great choices for vegans and vegetarians alike. The food was superb, original and well made. The servers were friendly and the decor is unique. But the 'war on gluten' was disappointing... I realize some people are sensitive (celiacs), but most of the people on a GF diet are experiencing a transient fad which will eventually fade. Until then, we will miss good bread at this place.... GF food is not necessarily better for you and as a healthy place, this is misleading to most diners. Further, a good piece of pita on a mezze platter is kind of a must....

This restaurant is a MUST if you’re in San Antonio and enjoy thoughtfully prepared locally sourced meals. Our food and drinks were so fantastic we wanted to stay for dinner as well. Don’t miss this amazing place!

I use the word ingenious because it takes a lot of creativity and knowledge to take fresh ingredients and give them such complex, AMAZING flavor. We're only in town for 2 days, but I'd love to take this place home with me! Delicious, clean, and super healthy.

Great selection of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options. Fresh and tasty. Good service and nice little outdoor area. Such a refreshing experience for those of us who have limited options.

We ate here twice over the weekend! My wife and I were in town for a wedding and someone recommended that we try Pharm Table. We got to town early on Friday and arrived right after opening. Thankfully, we didn't need a reservation and we were seated inside by a lovely hostess who gave us the option of also sitting outside in their covered patio which looked like a great alternative if we hadn't wanted air conditioning. Our Server was attentive and knowledgeable and she helped us navigate the menu as well as explained the restaurant's general philosophy of not just creating thoughtful menu items but a total holistic experience from where and how ingredients are sourced all the way to how they are disposed of. I think the attention to these kinds of details are important and my wife and I are willing to spend more to help places like this make a difference in the well being of our planet that also results in delicious food. The menu itself gives a brief description of this approach along with explaining the 3% added cost to financially compensate the staff which I believe is another part of the same philosophy. The menu states that this fee will be removed if asked. The cocktails we ordered were delicious and creative. Our favorite from the two visits was the Micro Flora with the chamomile infused mezcal. For meals, on our first visit we tried the Peruvian Nikkei Ceviche with Faroe Isle Salmon, Sweet Potato Waffles, and some Pasture Raised Chicken Thighs. On the second visit, we shared the Salmon Gravlax Board and the Antojitos Board with one of each taco. We also had the Oysters with a mezcal bean infused mignonette sauce. What a treat! After each meal we had the Sweet Potato Chocolate Brownie with a mesquite bean gelato. This is a flourless brownie so it's much lighter and more delicate than a traditional brownie but the flavors are so good and it works so well with the gelato! We couldn't pick a dish we liked more than any other which, after two meals, tells us that we'd probably like most everything on the menu. If only we lived closer we'd be here all the time. Overall, service was great, drinks were great, food was great, and ambiance was great. For those who mentioned having to pay to park, the menu does say that they validate up to 90 minutes of parking. Thank you for the great meals, we look forward to our next trip to San Antonio!

This is some of the best and most nourishing restaurant food. I highly recommend anything from the menu. The weekend ceviche and the beet soup are favorites.

I took my son to eat here for lunch recently. We both ordered beet salads with sweet potatoes and lots of yummy veggies. He added pork I believe, I added avacado. The teas were amazing as well. We left feeling full but in a healthy way. In fact, we did not eat dinner that night because we were still full at dinner time.

Pharm Table is a welcome respite in a city otherwise littered with unhealthy chain restaurants. The food here is creative, beautiful, and delicious. As a bonus, it actually makes you feel good.

The best fresh and health food I have ever had! I was missing home when I found this place with delicious food and amazing desert. I was glad to meet the Chef, she is very nice, brought me lots of joy with her delicious food.

I had dinner twice here in a few days and it was thoroughly enjoyable! The food is fresh and the atmosphere is welcoming. Although I'm not a vegan, I very much enjoyed 2 vegan meals. Additional proteins are available. The avocado mousse is delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant, especially if you want to get away from the touristy river walk restaurants..

This restaurant is in a very unique spot, inside a gallery across the street from the Tobin Center. The food is amazing, specially if you like spices, it has really good vegetarian options! Liked it so much we went 2 days in a row. Service is great!

Amazing! Delightful! Different! Very friendly, helpful and informed service. The options need explanation and they are very informed.

This restaurant has the freshest, cleanest, best tasting food I had while in San Antonio. I love to eat vegetables, to eat tasty combinations, and most importantly to eat healthy. This is your restaurant if you want to feel great afterwards!

An absolutely amazing restaurant! Everything I’ve ever wanted in a restaurant…it’s organic, gluten free, dairy free and incredibly delicious!!!! The flavors will delight your senses! My wife and I enjoyed our brunch so much that we had dinner there that night. We tried so much of the menu…each dish made us feel so satisfied and happy including the juice shot flight, Bloody Mary, and the best cappuccino we’ve ever had with Lion’s mane and dandelion. The carrot soup , charred beets, mushroom tacos, tahini cookie…. All of it! Just go and you’ll be so glad you did! Not only will you leave fully satisfied but you’ll feel like you did something great for yourself and the planet!

Went for dinner. Menu is extremely limited. They offer a single pre-fixe for $32. If you want something else your only choices are limited to items from the pre-fixe ordered a la carte. I had the squash soup, which was served at room temperature, and the fish tacos . The fish in the taco is served luke warm and the corn tortillas for the tacos are served cold and look and taste like "Old El Paso" packaged tortillas that you would purchase at HEB. This is the last dose of medicine we will be having at Pharm Table.

Worth the effort to find this place! Only open 11-2PM for lunch. The best vegan food I have ever eaten- bar none. Spacious quiet dining room. Try the Ayurvedic digestive appetizer!

We had a little trouble locating this place from the double decker bus tour stop near Tobin Center but we eventually found it and when we entered I was a bit taken aback as the restaurant itself appears to sit inside an area that must be used for events. That aside, the open area carved out for the restaurant was lovely; rustic farm table feel. The menu isn't very extensive - just a few items that I'm guessing changes day to day. We eat a plant based gluten free diet so I was relieved that we could eat all the items listed. We ordered the tacos (three different ones; carrot, beet and yellow pepper), we also had the enchiladas and I forget what the other meal was called but it was along the lines of a grain based salad. The food came out quickly and because there were five of us, we ordered another round of tacos and enchiladas. The food was fabulous. We also had the turmeric ginger tea, my husband had a ginger shot juice which we do at home with just apple and ginger but they added turmeric and I believe honey to theirs and it was very good. I have to say we felt so nourished and balanced after that meal - I wish we had gone back for another lunch. My husband and I keep talking about the enchiladas - I want the recipe! The kids loved the beet and carrot tacos best. If we return to San Antonio we would definitely return - highly recommend if you're open to "winging it" and have a broad palate where the limited menu wouldn't feel so limited.

Although the brownies I ordered were too sweet, I very much enjoyed the chocolate mousse, seasonal soup (served in a coconut shell!), and the rose komboucha. I would have like to have had another opportunity to experience this place, but we didn't have time. The interior is lovely and they have several books on a shelf to choose from while dining. One of the servers was very pleasant, while the others seemed off. I requested to see the brownie before ordering, because I usually know by sight if something will appeal to me. But, she hesitated and I ordered it anyway and it was too sweet. Next time I would choose the mousse instead.

Looking for a unique culinary experience? Look no more! Pharm Table is your place. Located in South Town, Pharm Table has a vibe that says, "Come, relax, and spend some chill time, enjoying delicious food with your friends, family, date, or spouse." Serving health-conscious food with vegan & paleo options, Pharm has something for everyone. We elected to go vegan, ordering the charted beets with pomegranate, pistachio pecan duklah on a creamy cashew parsley sauce; and then, going with 2 entrees, Masala Mushroom (a stew like meal with oyster mushrooms, heirloom tomatoes, fennel, and curry leaves, and gluten free dosa), and Peruvian Taco Taco (lentil and rice taco taco, red pepper sofrito, salsa criollo, and avocado). The food was delicious, portions just right, and the presentation so inviting. For dessert we had the Sweet Potato Chocolate Brownie with with coconut mesquite bean gelato. I found the Brownie to be a bit dry, but the chocolate drizzle and the gelato helped to balance it. We also ordered the Avocado Chocolate Mousse, very decadent, rich, and oh so yummy! With all that food, neither of us walked away feeling overly stuffed. Our waitress, Lena, was attentive and so helpful in choosing menu items, and in telling us a bit about the South Town area of San Antonio. If you're looking for an escape from the same old cusine on the Riverwalk, check out Pharm Table in South Town.

A+. This meal was soooo good, healthy, interesting. Friendly fabulous service and atmosphere! So different. We ordered the Patty Plate and squash soup of the day and were so pleased. They serve a Ginger meal starter which was so good. And we ended with a super absorption turmeric shot. A must visit, very highly recommended eatery. I could go on, but you get the idea.

This new restaurant is unlike anything in San Antonio - you don't get enormous platters of food to make you feel bloated. Instead, beautifully prepared, healthy, local food, that makes you feel good you stopped in for lunch.

Excellent and novel food that is mostly vegetarian. Very tasty, wonderful decor that is casual and sophisticated.

If you’re in San Antonio and looking for a healthy, delicious, and interesting brunch of lunch you need to check this small restaurant out. It’s near the Tobin Center and right off the river walk. Everything I’ve had is delicious. The tea they make in house is fantastic. The people who work here truly love the product they produce. Hands down this is the best food in San Antonio!

The food at Pharm Table is locally sourced and hand made daily. It is probably the healthiest food you can find in all of San Antonio and it is sooooo good! My body craves it!

I travel a lot and so dread eating out. I was delighted to find Pharm Table. Super yummy, I had the plate with tamal and ginger turmeric tea. It’s inspired me to adjust my already healthy home diet. Just wish I could find more restaurants like this traveling.

Boring food and pretentious atmosphere. The flavors are awful. Ice tea tasted like it was water with a teaspoon of dry dirt. It’s like they just threw various foods and odd spices together. Worst meal I’ve ever had! Who eats this stuff?

Fresh gluten free food. Varied breakfast selection and beverages. Food is pretty on a plate but flavors did not work for me. Unusual combinations. Tried three dishes, liked 1. Very expensive for breakfast.

Let me preface by saying the people who work here are exceptionally nice, albeit in a fake way. Everything about this place was fake and bombastic. The food was snobby hinging on pretentious. For the amount you pay per plate, you would expect more food. I am used to European portions - small, but nevertheless filling and price-appropriate. The dishes here are pricey, but you do not get bang for your buck. Jesus, there was hardly any food on the plate! I remember thinking, "This is it?" We left here starving!

Have stopped by several times with the thought of lunch, but there is a spice or something that smells terrible to me. As a result, I haven't tried the food.

VERY limited menu. Vegan food was awesome. “Duck” dish was a joke. “Maybe” there was 4 ounces in a “soup” with a high price tag. $14 for a side of green beans? Really? Service was poor. The staff must be smoking something in the back of the house because we had to constantly remind them of our order, received dishes we didn’t order and they removed items right after we said “please don’t remove”. Might have been a better review if whatever they were enjoying amongst the staff in the back was shared with the patrons…

Be prepared for an adventure, anyway. There were four of us at Sunday brunch: one vegan, one eats "clean" when possible, and two omnivores. The consensus was, "Fresh foods, well prepared, but just too weird to taste good." There's a focus on fermented and raw foods, sometimes in odd combinations. None of us were thrilled with the ubiquity of coconut oil (controversial as to healthfulness) for sauteeing and flavoring. We tried to like the food, just didn't. The cold teas are interesting and delicious. For the price of one, you can try them all. Check the online menu before you go, so you know what you're getting into.

Good flavors happy we tried it...cute place with patio seating . Interesting layer of flavors . Wish they had more breakfast options.

Vegans visiting San Antonio have very few dining options, and many of those are disappointing. But in the land of breakfast tacos and sweet tea, Pharm Table manages to find its niche! This place is a godsend to vegan travelers and locals alike. Thoughtfully crafted menu using fresh local plant based ingredients(options to add meat or avocado protein to most dishes). We loved everything we tried, and visited each day, sometimes more than once! Favorite menu items: Quinoa Tamal Bowl, Coconut squash Soup, Brunch Breakfast Pizza, Rosewater Hibiscus Kombucha, Espresso bites.

This place offers exceptional clean and delicious food for plant-based and non eaters alike. I've eaten here twice and had to sit back in my chair the first bites were so good. Awesome atmosphere and great selection of aqua fresca and tea.

Made the mistake of stopping at the PT bar yesterday. Received the bill and it included a 3% Kitchen Appreciation Fee. Number 1 this is deceitful. If a business needs to pay their staff more, then increase your menu prices. Don't hide it and stick it to customers when they receive their check. Second, I didn't order any food. I shouldn't pay for your kitchen. ELIZABETH - stop screwing your customers!!! YELPERS - boycott every restaurant in SA with Kitchen Appreciation Fees!!!

The vegan and gluten free emphasis has been taken to its limit here, but the paleo salad and the tomato rasam were both outstanding and very different. We missed a bit of bread but the sweet potato waffles and the quinoa made up for it and were quite filling. Worth a visit for the sheer unusual and eclectic vegan menu. Also a very relaxed and comfortable place to eat.

I had a reservation at for 12:15 p.m. on January 1, 2022. I checked into Pharm Table at 11:30 a.m. At 12:25, I approached the hostess to let her know that I was still waiting. She told me that our table was still occupied and that she would call me when the table was ready. I pointed to where I would be standing while I waited. At 12:45 p.m., I again approached the hostess and she informed me that she had tried calling but could not get a hold of me. I did not have any missed calls. Hostess never called my name out. I was standing 10 feet from the check-in desk. During my wait, several families with 5+ people were seated, ate, and left. I was finally seated outdoors event though I had requested indoor seating. After ordering, one of the orders came out 10 to 15 minutes after the other orders. DO NOT RECOMMEND!

Really good salads, nice iced teas: perfect spot for the summer! I recommend this place for tasty, fresh, authentic and healthy plates.

It’s crazy that I have gone to church a block away (St. Mark’s) for seven years, and have only checked this place out once. I think my first attempt was weird, and so I never went back, until this visit. What a different experience I had. I came early to beat the line. Fresh food, vegan, organic, what’s not to like. This is now a viable alternative to going to Green all the time at the Pearl. And after church, here we come. I sat quite a while, tried several things on the menu. When I ordered a Madagascar coffee, they came with a large French Press. A bit excessive, half of which went to waste. Some of the other portions were smallish, but I have no complaints. Except that this is a well-kept secret. I mean, really, not even a sign on the front of the building. You must know to go around to the back. Actually, the front door is open, but there is no indication what kind of business is inside, so I suspect most people don’t just go in. Once inside, you walk across a wide space to the back of the building. On the front of the building it says RADIUS. I don’t know what’s going on here, a hundred yards from the Toben Center, the building seems underutilized and this place open for only four hours a day. Well, good for them.

Charming courtyard full of plants and outdoor seating leads to a large airy space inside dressed in shabby chic with the nicest waitstaff. Great coffee and I cant wait to go back and try the sweet potato waffles. The breakfast quinoa pizza was too spicy for my taste so maybe get the salsa on the side if you are not a hot sauce lover. Limited parking but there is street parking nearby.

Delightful place tucked in the midst of downtown San Antonio by the Tobin Center for Performing Arts. The menu is unique, fresh and prepared with a delightful presentation. The place offers you a relaxing eating experience for one or several. You will not be disappointed.

Across from the Tobin Center, this has become my favorite meeting place for friends and casual business. Many tea selections, kombucha, and food that is not only beautiful and delicious but is healthy and nutritious as well. Try the dark chocolate quinoa truffles!

Food was tasty and very nice presented. Service was good and ambient was nice. However the 3% kitchen tip is ridiculous!

Great Healthy Catering & Food. Paleo, Keto, & Vegan options that have you feeling refreshed after eating versus tired & bloated. Went with a large crowd with lots of diverse palettes & everyone found something to enjoy 😊

I ordered food to go as this was a convenient location. We advised of a food allergy in the meal notes. When we unpacked the meals, the different meals were bagged separately and items which weren't related to the allergic patron's food were labeled according to the allergy (contains xyz). This was such a nice step! It was lovely to know the staff had not only read the message (and complied), but had truly thought out our eating experience and cared for the details to make certain we could ALL eat in safety.
