Mad Minnow Bar & Kitchen

I had my usual salad with salmon and it was the best salad with salmon. Long wait for a table bc it’s a small place. But good is safe and worth it.

Update: last summer the bill started to be irregular. Let’s say a salad is $10 / the bill would be like 10.67. And then there would be tax and a kitchen fee on top of it. Kinda off putting. Plates also got smaller. I eat like a bird and salad with a protein is always enough. Went home for a second dinner. Will try again in summer of 2024. Nice people. It is packed - so if they need to up the prices, just up the prices. Don’t give me some crazy check and send me home hungry.

Mad Minnow has a separate menu to show you what is gluten free on the regular menu. Many of the appetizers and entrees are naturally gluten free or they make slight modifications. For instance the salmon curry came without the fried eggplant but it was still delicious! Even for kids menu, they can offer gluten free pasta with butter or marinara sauce. The food is very good and they are accommodating of gluten “allergy”.

Great creative menu! I had Cod Risotto which was delicious. They cooked the Cod in a light parmesan crust and it was excellent. Family friendly, but check the menu first if you have picky kiddos. Mine (not GF) ended up eating sweet potato tots for dinner!

Seems very new, the only issue for us was that they don’t have a changing table in the men’s or women’s room so we had to change our daughter in the car. Otherwise the food and service were great. Super accommodating, I have celiac and explained the precautions needed, we were 100% aligned.

Went here last night. Many items available including gluten free buns and pasta, but nothing is marked on the menus really. Servers were happy to check with the chef on a few questions and seemed fairly knowledgeable overall. Food was excellent even though prices were quite high.

We had a great experience here. They had a color coded menu of what was GF, what could be modified, and what not to eat. Waiter was very helpful. Loved this place fir adults and kids. Adult menu was a nice change from typical family style restaurants.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Although the staff were friendly and knowledgeable, after waiting an hour for a table, we were notified that they do not have a dedicated fryer. The items we wanted to eat are fried and therefore not truly gluten free. It was very disappointing so we left. 😢

Knowledgeable and concerned staff, went above and beyond to prepare a safe dish. I don't eat seafood, I had a wonderful pasta dish. Highly recommend.

Great food. Very caring to gluten issues. Had the Cod pan seared with asparagus and greens. For an appetizer they prepared the crab cake tater-tots pan seared instead of fried. Delicious.

We sat at the bar and our bartender was VERY knowledgeable. I had their sparkling sangria and their burger. The fries are cooked next to a pan that contains gluten, so they suggested I avoid them just in case.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious food! GF not a problem! Great place; friendly staff

Absolutely delicious meal that they changed around to make gluten , MSG, and nitrate free. I am so allergic to any of these even in natural form and the manager and other staff was so caring even while very busy. This was a great find.

Amazing! I asked if their clam chowder was gluten free, and they said they would make a batch just for me. Waiters were very knowledgeable and the cook came out and talked to me. I would definitely recommend this place!

Only open a month. One of owners' mom and father-in-law celiac so they totally get it. Closed Tues. Went for Monday brunch w/2 celiac kids, no soy, no milk. Waiter was very knowledgeable and very nice about my 8000 questions, happy to sub and make recommendations. Had GF buns, dedicated fryer was down today but usually have one. Food was delicious, EVERYONE happy, this never happens! Also have cider, Omission beer, full bar.
