Mercat a la Planxa

We were not so lucky as the other reviewer; our server/the kitchen didn't know that flour contains wheat. We ordered drinks and opted to leave without eating. The drink was rather tasty, though.

Is there a gluten-free menu?

— Gluten-free items are marked on the main menu

Mercat is a tapas restaurant inside a hotel near Millenium Park. The server was very aware of gluten allergies and asked if I was celiac. For gluten allergies anything in oil they prepare separately. They’re very attentive. I watched them deliver the same tapas dishes to other tables and when iI asked the server about certain removed items she went into detail why the item was removed.
