Review of Little Bird

I visited Littlebird twice on a recent trip to Grand Rapids. Both times the food was excellent, the staff was kind, and I didn’t get sick! When I said I had celiac disease, the server immediately understood and explained which items on the menu were gluten free (already clearly marked) and which ones could be modified and how they would do that. They have a separate, gluten free-only fryer and have separate condiments for gluten free meals. They took great care with my order, and were very happy to answer all of my questions both times.

The staff mentioned having several celiac regulars, and it is clear that you have trained them well!
