The waiter was awesome he not only help me pick something out that was Gluten free he also ask the Chef about the spices in the food. So I did not worry and just enjoyed eating. I am also allergic to beef, beans and tomatoes. I had the Shrimp Effitee and sweet tea. They have a menu with several options for Gluten free on the menu with GF in front of it. You can also ask and they can make other items Gluten free. We will be going back.

I was hesitant to go here after reading the reviews. However, I had a wonderful experience! Our server was quite pleasant and knowledgeable! I had the grilled blackened catfish with potatoes and veges. It was all terrific! Hardly a crumb left behind.

The food tasted great but I got extremely sick afterwards. Would not recommend. I had the Bayou platter that was red beans, jambalaya, and a shrimp stew of some kind. It was all marked gluten free, but when I clarified with my server he did not seem to have any idea what gluten free meant. It should have been a sign, but I was excited to have something authentic and gluten free. If you do want to try eating here, I would avoid anything that you wouldn't be certain is gluten free. Not worth it in my opinion.

Tips


No longer has a gluten free menu. Many items are probably naturally gluten free but are not designated as such. Minimal options for a GF vegetarian but the family said the oysters and crawfish were really good

This restaurant felt like having a meal at home with mom. I had the grilled tuna steak and it was amazing.

No gluten free options on menu. Ordered a plain salad with chicken and took 40 minutes to prepare and the chicken came out looking like it had breading on it. I did not eat it. I would not recommend this to anyone with food sensitivities.

Had gluten free options marked on the menu on the door, however no gluten free menu inside (so maybe take a picture before entering). Furthermore, the waitress was able to assist me to through the gluten free options and I got a grilled salmon with vegetables.

They no longer have gluten-free items marked on their menu, nor do they have a gluten free menu. The sever did not know what gluten free meant, but did go ask whether the crawfish boil was gluten free. It was not and I decided to go with oysters just to be safe.

The waiter wasn't very friendly. But the hostess was very sweet. They have gluten free options right on the regular menu marked with a G. Very nice upstairs area but closes before 7. The price is a little high, but its new Orleans and that's to be expecte . They even have choices for those who don't like seafood, though the smell is potent.

Happened to be there when it was not crowded. I suspect if you are there when crowded, it could be a bad experience. They had a few traditional dishes available and they were tasty.
