I love ovenbird! They come to the table and cross out what isn’t gluten free on the menu. All but 5 or so items were gluten free. Go often and have had no issues!

The food was delicious but the menu wasn’t marked at all. After reading other reviews I figured our server would be trained. He seemed to know but we got food with gluten on it. I ordered market fish and deviled eggs. The server told us he would inform the kitchen but the meal came with bread crumbs all over it. They took away the food and made me fresh right away with no bread crumbs. It was a very busy night so maybe the establishment would be better on a slower night.

When I asked about GF, the waitress borrowed my menu and returned it with all of the GF items highlighted, although in several instances a non-GF item had to be crossed out. She was also very knowledgeable— for example, the grits were deemed non-GF because they were made in a factory that produced wheat and thus they couldn’t guarantee absence of cross-contamination. My only criticism, and I almost gave it four stars, was there did not seem to be a willingness to substitute out non-GF items.
Overall, safe place. Food was very good and has unique offerings.

An awesome option for someone who has Celiac!!! Most of the items on the menu are gluten free. Waitress extremely knowledgable about the allergy and made great suggestions. This is a tapas/small-plates restaurant and the portions are a little smaller so you will want to try several dishes. We tried the Shishito Peppers, Vegetable Paella, Pork Shoulder, and Octopus (trust me it's delicious). I had the Flan for dessert--that was ok--consistency a little different and would have preferred a creme brûlée, but still a great dessert option. I rated this a 4-star only because I wish they had GF bread and more dessert options. Incredible cocktails, high-quality food, wonderful atmosphere, professional waitstaff -- overall this a FABULOUS choice and a Chef Hastings jewel, and new favorite of ours!! Try it!!!
