Review of Ebbitt Room

I called ahead and was told they could accommodate a celiac guest. When I received the reservation confirmation, I used their system to confirm celiac and dairy- free.

Upon arriving they said the prix fixe menu was the only option - not full menu like they had said when I made the reservation. I ordered the safest options and told the waiter about being celiac and dairy allergy.

The meal arrived covered in cheese and possibly bread crumbs. I alerted the waiter who brought us a new meal. Then for the dessert option of the prix fixe, there was no safe option. I asked if the sorbet on the regular menu was gfdf and available. The waiter came back with creme brûlée and seemed surprised when I explained it was made from dairy. Finally we got the sorbet.

$200 and my daughter had a stomach ache before we even left the restaurant. So I suspect there was undisclosed gluten somewhere in her meal. Very disappointing.

Celiac friendly?

No
