    We celebrated our wedding anniversary at Chef Fredy's and greatly enjoyed ourselves. My wife is gluten free, and they were able to make nearly everything on the menu available to her. The scallops appetizer and stuffed salmon entree were delicious. The gluten free bacon appetizer and duck were outstanding. The desserts were also very tasty. The ambiance was great. Highly recommend for a special occasion.

    As always the food wine and ambience was excellent. Salvatore ensures that you are treated well. This night however due to a waiter that was fairly new to the establishment, things did not go as smoothly as in the past. Our service was inconsistent, varying between very good and needing improvement. He did try however. I do believe that once he has been there for a longer period of time he will fit right in.
