I had an allergic reaction at this Chart House two years ago and had to go straight to the hospital about four bites in. I ordered hummus from the gluten free menu and asked for the appropriate modifications for gluten free, but when the plate came, there was pita on it. I caught it before eating anything on the plate and sent it back, and although they said the new plate had been fully re-made with no pita, an anaphylactic reaction occurred after a few bites in and I was rushed to the hospital. I hope the allergy-friendly service has improved since then, but I am too afraid to return.

Based on other reviews, the level of staff knowledge here seems to vary a lot. I went for happy hour and the server didn’t know what was gf: we had to ask about each individual item we were interested in, and then she’d go back and ask the chef. I ended up getting the hummus (sub extra taro chips for pita) and the fish tacos (they’re grilled, on corn tortillas). Both were good, especially the tacos, and I didn’t get sick.

I went here for happy hour and was going to stay for dinner. Once we were sat the waiter was not helpful. I asked what options they had that were gluten free. He said “tell me what sounds good and I’ll see what we can do”. This is a nice restaurant I expected more from them or maybe a manager to walk over and talk to our table. I called the host and they were unsure if they had any GF options. For the price they need to do better.

Highly recommend it. Gluten free menu and knowledgeable staff. Manager specifically checked in to ensure we knew how important they took allergies.

Very pleasant dining experience! We ate lunch here and had a great time. Our server Michael took great precautions to make sure that our multiple allergies were taken into account before our order was placed. A manager stopped by our table to verify the order as well. Small GF menu but the food was good. I give 4 stars because I would have liked to perhaps see a few more GF selections on the menu. We all had the grilled chicken and asparagus.

I have eaten here a few times and always get special treatment here since I have to eat gluten free and have other food allergies on top of it (bone fish being one of them, ironically). They do have a decent but small gluten free menu with a great chef salad (I suggest adding some grilled shrimp to it- yum!). And the best part is it appears to me that some of the items on the GF menu are actually lunch items, so they cost less at dinner, ha ha!

I have been here 3 times in 1 month! I love their grilled Mahi, mashed potatoes, and Caesar salad. The staff is very helpful and accommodating.

The food was excellent, with a good variety of fresh foods, meats and fish. But I was more impressed with the staff. I felt very safe there and all my questions were answered immediately, with knowledge and experience. It was pricey but would do again.

Would not recommend for celiac individuals. The wait staff was kind, however they were not knowledgeable about their products. When asked if an item was gf, they said “I would assume so,” indicating a lack of certainty. I did eat one raw oyster and was fine, but didn’t want to risk eating anything else there!

What a great place for a date night. It was very easy for me to eat here. The server showed me which items on the menu were gf (or could be made gf for me), and there were many options. I ended up having oysters, sushi, salad and a gf creme brûlée flight of sorts. The server coordinated with the chef more than once about avoiding cross-contamination for my meal. Chart House is a beautiful, classic restaurant on the water. I will go back often.

Chose Chart House for a birthday celebration on the recommendation of a gluten-intolerant friend, and had a wonderful experience. Upon learning that I have celiac, our waiter took special care to bring me the gluten-free menu, and confidently answered my questions.

I had the shrimp+mango+avocado stack as an appetizer, and the grilled chicken+asparagus with a side of mashed garlic potatoes as a main; all three were delicious.
