I had a burger without a bun and the amazing GF carrot cake. I had a side salad instead of fries (shared fryer.) It was my 1st restaurant experience post diagnosis and I felt comfortable. Wait staff was knowledgeable and helped me muddle through my questions about cross contact. She flagged my order GF and verified it when she brought my food. I was diagnosed just before my bday and she comped my dessert too.

Went with a guest who has gluten, corn and dairy allergies. Was told they could make her lettuce salad which was the only option for her allergies. Never again.

Sat at the bar. My bartender/waiter was knowledgeable and overall great! Place is super cool with great drinks. Menu has noted “gluten free options” and does have a separate grill. I had the cider crusted pork chop and it was incredible. I will definitely come back if I visit Boise again!

Food was decent, atmosphere was lively. When we ordered the cheese plate and I mentioned gluten free, the server told me “Well, don’t eat the bread. Simple, right?” Thankfully, the kitchen automatically knew to replace the bread with chips. At that point, I didn’t have high confidence, but I was so hungry.

Got glutened, would not go back.

Fun place! They had ghost fish GF beer and a variety of menu items! I ordered the Pho and it was very good! My plate originally came out from the kitchen staff with a sauce on the side (in a separate cup) that was not GF, and my waiter caught it right away and offered to remake the whole meal for me! I didn’t get sick and I felt really safe with the waitstaff.

Excellent food, creative menu. Menu is marked for GF, lots of options. GF bun is tasty. I had the tuna sandwich with wasabi mayo and pickled ginger plus got a carnitas sandwich to go for a picnic the next night. Both were good. No ill effects afterwards.

This distillery and bar is fantastic. The menu clearly states what items are or can be gluten free. I had the shrimp satay as an appetizer and the cider-brined pork chop for my entree as well as the huckleberry lemon vodka martini. Everything was safe and delish - that was one of the best pork chops I’ve ever had. They distill their own lemon vodka and it is just yummy. They offer riverside patio dining and it’s lovely when the weather is nice.

The food was top notch. I really enjoyed the kimchi corned beef Reuben on the zeppole gf bun. Sure it wasn’t rye, but the flavor was on point. I have a strong sensitivity to wheat and I had no problem. It is a shared facility and no dedicated fryer, but they made enough effort to keep me safe. Lots of gf options. I always advise that you enter at your own risk in a shared facility and really stress the severity of your “allergy”.

Enjoyed my pork chop with mashed potatoes and green beans. The waitress understood celiac. My food was brought out on a red plate, which she said was their kitchen’s color code for allergies. I’ll return and try other dishes.

There was not a large selection of gluten free items. The menu was labeled what was gluten free but did not use the same symbol for the children's menu. The food was not good. The waiter was very nice but tried to tell us the couscous was gluten free. There were no gluten free bread or fryer.

Service and good were great. There are a lot of GF options clearly labeled. The french fries are not GF. Their GF buns were very good. They had seven GF desserts to choose from. We got one of each and they were all great.

I'll start with the best thing: Every. Single. Dessert. Was. Gluten. Free!

Both Celiac daughters had no negative reaction here (couple bouts of diarrhea, but may have been from just eating too much!) They had the turkey sandwich with mashed potatoes (no gravy!) and the Pho (daughter said this was the most delicious thing she's ever had). Also had several bites of my GF bacon wrapped filet which was amazing, especially for $30.

Cheesecakes, lava cakes, etc. All safe and all absolutely delicious. Definitely coming back here again!

Sent out tuna sandwich with gluten bread instead of GF. Confirmed at the table when set down it was GF. I noticed it looked the same as the gluten sandwich and they said they made a mistake. ! Took it off our bill, which was nice, but our son did take a bite. :( Also the portions were very small. I had a gf turkey sandwich which came with a tiny cup of coleslaw and tiny gf bun. I felt hungry afterward and feel a bit ripped off.

Staff is knowledgeable about gluten free options for celiac. The menu contains easily 20 gluten free optional items. They have a seperate prep space in the kitchen where they handle meal where a customer states allergies. My celiac food came out on a different colored plate than the rest of the table. While it was a little obvious that my food was different and I could see that embaressing someone, it reassured me that they actually took care and remembered.
