Excellent experience here! Menu is clearly marked as gluten free or what has the ability to be gluten free. Our server was knowledgeable and clearly marked my order as Celiac. The cauliflower crostinis were to die for! I took three orders home with me for my trip back to Texas. This will be a definite go to when I am here!

This is maybe my favorite place in Des Moines as a celiac. Have eaten here many times and have never been sick.

Some of my faves are the crab Rangoon dip, mashed potatoes, chicken tenders, pan seared chicken.. all amazing.

This is my favorite gluten free place in DSM. They are very careful and really know what's up. I love the goat Mac n cheese and their gf buns aren't crumbly and don't get soggy quickly.

This was the first place I had eaten at since my diagnoses that I felt relaxed at and could enjoy myself! It was so refreshing to see that everything on their menu was GF or could be made GF. Plus they have a pasta dish on there that was already made with GF pasta! Staff was extremely nice and had a great understand of my needs with celiac. Had a great meal without getting sick.

This place is super amazing for celiacs! One of my fav restaurants and I just got diagnosed with celiac, so I was super nervous about coming. They have a completely separate menu for gluten free and almost all the food is gluten free besides the pasta. Very helpful and accommodating.

Celiac friendly?

(Should note that I'm intolerant of wheat, but not celiac.)

They are great about making adjustments to burgers (lettuce wrap instead) and have many gluten-free appetizer options. I love Americana's happy hour!

Delicious burger on lettuce, no issues.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I was a little off-put by the “gluten friendly menu” but the food was good, they even have appetizer options, and everything appears to be that I had no cross-contamination concerns!
