Brasserie Liberté

We've been here a couple times and both were great experiences! GF items are marked on the menu. I can't speak to the safety of the French fries as I ordered entrees both times that didn't have fries (a beef dish and the salmon dish). Also got the creme brulee. All were delicious and the wine is quite good too. Service was excellent and the ambience is lovely. Will definitely come back.

Super super good. Every single thing from appetizers to desserts was delicious. Went with a group so we all tried each other’s food. Most of the hors d’œuvres are gf if you leave off the bread. Croquettes were great; not greasy or heavy. Gf options were clearly marked and the waiter was knowledgeable. The coq au vin was probably the best dish on the table. I had an excellent tuna niçoise with perfectly seared tuna. Great wine, desserts, and espresso too.

Well I wanted to love it but no. The menu and server were so confusing, my daughters ran to CVS for activated charcoal in the middle of dinner. The fries and croquettes say gluten free. Celiac daughter orders burger with GF bun and specifies celiac. We order the croquettes for the table. Croquettes came out first and my two celiac daughters ate them. But then the burger and fries came out but with a salad instead of fries. The server said she requested a salad cause the fries aren’t gluten free, fried in a shared frier with gluten. So we freaked out and they left their meal on the table and went to buy activated charcoal, as they had just eaten the fried croquettes. We questioned the GF label on the menu and the server told us that sometimes the fries are fried in shared oil and sometimes they aren’t. But the croquettes are always in their own frier without gluten. She decided on her own to request a salad instead of asking the kitchen to use the gluten free frier for the fries. So while my daughter didn’t get sick, she ate a cold burger, no fries and spent 20 min mid-meal going to get activated charcoal in case she was glutened. The server could have, at the very least, offered to bring her some GF fries. But no. So the $20 burger was a huge disappointment. Also, I ordered a GF bun and mine was brought with a regular bun. Luckily it’s so obvious to me that I immediately noticed and sent mine back. 15 min later mine arrived. After the rest of my party ate.

Staff was knowledgeable and let the kitchen know I had celiac. The beet salad was delicious. Coq au Vin was good. Disappointed that the GF bread was white sandwich bread. Why not serve GF baguette?!

Beautiful place with great food! Attentive service and a good amount of GF options. If you’re looking for parking, there’s a paid deck right down the street.

Handles celiac requests and gluten free needs well; patio waitress was quite knowledgeable. Menu items labeled as GF—enough options, though not more than 50% of menu, and the egg based brunch dishes are unfortunately not labeled GF (didn’t ask about modifying to make GF). Fries are GF and in GF fryer! They brought GF bread as starter with separate butter. Good food!

I got the butternut squash soup which was the best butternut squash soup I’ve ever had, but I was not super confident about going to a French restaurant for gluten free food. I feel like I got away with one here by not getting sick. When I asked about getting gluten free food for a celiac, I didn’t get much of a rundown of the precautions that they take, but I figure that soup is usually a good bet for gluten freeness since it’s typically not done a ‘a la minute’ (made to order) which would mean it isn’t handled by as many hands or multi-use utensils.

This is my local neighborhood spot! They have a fryer dedicated to their French fries which are gluten free so that’s safe for celiacs! It’s hit or miss on how knowledgeable your server is on celiacs. Their menu denotes GF items and they’re very accommodating.

Great meal during DC Rest. Week. Had the waitress ask the chef about my meal to make sure everything was celiac safe. They did swap out one dressing so be careful and always ask for the chef. Waitress was helpful and i didn’t get sick at all. Got the pear salad with house dressing swapped in, trout and sorbet
