The food and wine are delicious, but the entrees are definitely overpriced for the amount of food you receive. If you’re hungry, order a pasta dish. I had the medallions, and the portions were small. I do appreciate that they bring out a GF bun while you’re waiting. My daughter loved the bun. They also have a separate GF menu and the server was knowledgeable about celiac.

Update2023- Still good just make sure you tell them clearly about celiac, needing gf, theres a green gf menu. Update sept 2020 some of their ingredients have changed. I have soy allergy and now have very few gf items I can have so sad Update Aug 2020- loveeee parmesan crusted chicken and Mexican drunken shrimp may 2020- Doing Delivery and pu limited menu. Make sure you get gluten free menu and explain u have celiac. If you have more allergies then ask for gluten free allergen menu. They are not very up to date with what has soy. I have gone many times in the past year and ask for that menu as well as Ingredients. My servers have been wonderful. Love the wine and wine tastings. 2019-The food was ok. I wouldnt get the fish again. It took along time to get our food. Its a very pretty place. Update May 2019 I had great service and wonderful lunch

The personal loaf of GF bread alone should make you want to come here. The bread is slightly sweet (maybe honey?) and has a nice texture. The best part is that it’s a normal size unlike most GF rolls. The items that can be made GF are marked on the menu. I had the chicken piccata. The chicken was enjoyable. I’m not a big fan of the side options that are GF, so I went with the mashed potatoes. If you like mashies, you’ll enjoy them.

This restaurant is one of the top gluten-free/friendly facilities I have eaten at over the last 6 years of being gluten-free. They have separate gluten free bread that tastes like the real thing and their gnocchi was to die for. It’s rare to find a gluten-free meal that is this satisfying! They also have a gluten-free dessert menu that we were too full to try but it’s nice knowing every course of the meal can be gluten-free! 10/10 recommend!

Great experience. They even had gluten free bread to bring out before dinner. Lots of their menu options are gluten free. The wine and sparkling wine was all amazing!

The managers and kitchen staff are notified IMMEDIATELY for allergens and Celiac. They bring out separate utensils and bread options at the beginning of the interaction. The staff was notified of my gluten-free needs throughout ALL the courses in my meal. The server was very knowledgeable and understood the severity of my condition and was informed of the menu.

The food was delicious! The complimentary bread was homemade and excellent. I am HIGHLY sensitive to cross-contamination and had no issues throughout my meal. The few things I did order were able to easily be modified by leaving off a garnish or had a delicious substitute. So many choices, high quality food, highly recommend!

This is a quality fine dinning experience catered to every customers needs. The staff is well informed and very accommodating. Very peasant, memorable dining experience!

Extensive GF menu and servers are very knowledgeable about the dishes. Warm GF roll with butter was a nice touch. All the food we had was very tasty and the place has a fun vibe. Free tasting of the barrel reserve wine. Will definitely go back.

Cooper's Hawk has an extensive gluten free menu including appetizers and dessert! They have amazing wine to order by the glass, bottle, or flight at the table. They have wine tastings at the front of restaurant and they're always amazing! I've yet to get sick at a Cooper's Hawk (I frequently went to the Kansas City and St. Louis locations prior to moving to the east coast).

I have eaten at Cooper’s Hawk Annapolis many times over the years. I just ate there for the second time since my celiac diagnosis. The menu is extensive, and their recommended wine pairings are helpful. There is an actual physical gf menu. It has a number of good offerings. Last time the salad I ordered came out with croutons by mistake. The server was very embarrassed and said she threw it out herself and spoke with the chef. I appreciated the server’s concern. It was a good meal and evening.

Fortunately this time there weren’t any hiccups. The server said she marked my order “gluten allergy”, which would mean it would be cooked separately. The server brought me warm gf bread, a good Cabernet S., a kale caesar side salad and, for the main course, a Black and Bleu cheeseburger, grilled squash and fresh fruit. It was all delicious. I may join their wine club.
