Charlotte, NC 28277
From the owner

Contemporary American restaurant known for premium food, gluten-free menu in Charlotte Blakeney & warm hospitality.

On safety—Burtons Grill takes many precautions in safely serving gluten-free guests. Hosts ask if anyone in the party needs a gluten-free menu before seating. Servers inquire about food allergies or dietary restrictions when greeting the table. Cooks wash their hands & change gloves before starting any allergy meal. Special sets of purple cutting boards, chef knives & utensils are set aside in the kitchen to prepare only gluten-free food & they are washed/sanitized in between every use. There are three separate fryers in the kitchen, two of which are always dedicated gluten-free. Gluten does not touch the charbroiler. All gluten-free/allergy food is served on square plates to designate them as such & they are delivered to the table by a manager or certified allergy specialist.

The extensive gluten free menu is perfect for my husband who is gluten intolerant. He ordered the Maxx burger gluten free with truffle french fries. I had the crab topped haddock with garlic mashed potatoes and green beans. Our server Chris was very knowledgeable about the menu and helped me pick out a nice glass of chardonnay. We will definitely be back. Mahalo Nui Loa, Nicole Vasiliki Rorie

A full, normal sized GF menu available. It is almost identical to the normal menu! With vegetarian options available, and GF beer. We had a veggie burger with truffle fries, crab cakes with mash potato and sprouts, and their chocolate cake. Everything was delicious! Lots of measures taken to reduce cross contamination, and GF food comes out on specific plates. I can always depend on the staff to be knowledgeable, and the food to be safe for me to eat. Thank you Burton's!

Very great experience. GF menu and waiter was knowledgable. Ensured me that the square plates indicate an allergy and circle plates were "regular items". Got the bolonesase pasta and cheesecake for dessert. Husband got the seven layer chocolate cake and said it was very good for being gluten free. Desserts are made in house and they are very good!

This restaurant is our go to restaurant. The food is delicious! The servers are are great with food allergies. We have family members with nut allergies and that are dairy free and gluten free. We love that they have a whole gluten free menu and a dedicated gluten free kitchen! Amazing!! This is a great restaurant concept for those that are gluten free and with Celiac. We have not had any issues eating here. Thank you Burton’s Grill for your excellent food and service!

After being recently diagnosed as Celiac, it has been a challenge to be comfortable with the idea of going out to eat. After reading about Burton's Grill's commitment to taking food restrictions seriously and seeing that their founder has Celiac disease, I decided to go out for the first time in awhile. We told the server at the front that I am Celiac, and she grabbed the gluten free menus for us (which are the size of a regular menu!). As we sat down, the waitress asked if we had been there before (we hadn't), and explained that they are known for customizable menu options as their founder is Celiac. The food was great albeit a little pricey, but worth it to experience a safe and "normal" dinner out. Highly recommend the General Tso's Cauliflower appetizer!

Owner has celiac and culinary trained. Pretty much everything but the key lime pie is gluten free. Many options-appetizers, burgers and main courses with a few desserts. Ate lunch there. Food good, bun grilled a bit too much and fries while good a little colder than like. Super conscious of food allergies. Rewards program too.

The food was wonderful! Two of us have celiac and we had the burger, filet, Mac and cheese and bread service. The staff was great….so kind and helpful with the menu. Neither of us had any reaction to the food. Great experience and we will visit again.

Everyone who has recommended this place is right—such a safe feeling celiac dining experience. Food is served in a different shape of plate to differentiate from the gluten containing foods, but the options are largely the same between the two menus. We got an order of onion rings—the first I’ve had since my diagnosis—and they were so crispy and delicious that it is worth a trip there for those alone! The service was great, with everyone from hostess to server asking about allergies and explaining the menu. Already planning to come back the next time I’m in Charlotte!

This place was amazing. They have gf menu but my husband had regular menu and they were almost identical. My husband had the gf fried haddock sandwich and I had crab crusted haddock with Mac and cheese. Everything tasted great. Lots of appetizers, main menu food and a chocolate cake that I got to go because I was to full but looks wonderful.

I am blown away by my experience here! The hostess asked if anyone needed a GF menu before we were even seated. There was a blurb on the menu about how seriously they take accommodating dietary restrictions. My food was delivered to the table separately by gloved hand with confirmation that it was gluten free. Celiac can be so isolating sometimes, especially in restaurants, but Burtons gave me a sense of normalcy and inclusivity. Great job Burtons!

I've eaten here several times and have never gotten sick. They are knowledgeable and always happy to accommodate my diet. The gluten-free menu is extensive. I love their burgers and how their buns don't get mushy or fall apart like so many others do. This is the only restaurant I've ever been to that offers a gluten-free bread service (although it is an extra cost) - the focaccia is delicious. Usually I don't have room for dessert, but I did try the cheesecake one time and it was amazing, creamy and decadent. I wish I lived in town so I could go here all the time.
