AQUA by El Gaucho

I went for Seattle Restaurant Week and had one of the salads, the risotto, and the pot de crème (with the macaron on the side, just to be safe), and it was pretty good. I did call ahead to ask questions and they confirmed the risotto should be safe, and I didn’t get sick. I’ll probably go back and try the regular menu, but would ask a lot of questions based on the previous review.

The staff was “false” knowledgeable about the cuisine. While the waiter said the dinner was gluten free, I got sick about 40 minutes into the meal. Online the restaurant claims to have GF options, which may be true but definitely not safe for celiac. Super disappointed as we spent a LOT of money on this dinner.

Celiac friendly?

No
