I've dined here a few times and always had good experiences. The waiters have the manager go over your order to be sure everything ordered can be prepared gluten-free. Great, right? I think someone failed to go over the precautions with the people in the kitchen because half way through my salad I bit into a crouton! It seems as if someone in the kitchen said "Ooops - this isn't supposed to have wheat" and then picked the croutons off and missed one instead of just throwing it out and starting over. I was sick for a week and now I'm afraid to eat there again.

They are the most accommodating GF restaurant in my opinion! They make the alligator appetizer blackened for me and it’s amazing!

I would have to disagree with a few of the reviews here. I had a very pleasant experience at this restaurant. I also have a dairy allergy as well as gluten and the manager came out and talked with me several times to make sure they were doing everything they could to accommodate. They prepared what I ordered differently than on menu to ensure as little cross contamination as possible. My meal was fantastic. (Chicken) I was impressed with they way they took care of me. Have not had that happen before. Personally, I would recommend this place. It is expensive but if you let them know that you have an allergy, they will take it seriously, which is what I look for in restaurants. Yes, they do not have GF bread. But their menu has a pretty nice selection (for a GF menu).
Yes
They do have a gluten free menu and offer to alter any meal they can. I wish I had ordered of the menu. I had blackened Costa Rica mahi off the lunch menu. I had to sub white rice instead of grits. Fine. No lump crab with lemon butter sauce. I had less than half the food for $22. Very disappointing. The fish itself was wonderful. Staff tried hard but still a disappointing, very expensive lunch.
Yes
I was disappointed. I expected a better selection. plus, I saw no fried alligator!
Fantastic gluten free menu! The seafood Cobb salad was delicious and they were very careful about making sure my food was gluten free!
Alligator is to die for... My favorite item on the menu.
The measures were not apparent. I had naked Salmon with green beans. The service was excellent!

Good Food , several options, The bread is so good but is not gluten free.
One of the worst dining experiences I’ve ever had! Upon arriving, I was excited that they had a gluten free menu -seemed promising. Although it was limited to mostly salads and steaks, which is fine. I told the waiter I had celiac and ordered the caesar salad with grilled chicken as an appetizer and a steak and baked potato for my entree. The manager came out shortly after to ask about my allergy which I appreciated. She informed me that their grill top is cross-contaminated with gluten and offered to bake my steak instead and give me the salad without chicken. Again, super appreciative of how knowledgeable she was. *This is when it got terrible* The waiter, knowing that I have celiac, put the giant loaf of bread in front of me when there were 6 other people at the table. Okay, not a big deal. Then the salad came out WITH the chicken I was just told I could not eat. The waiter goes back to get me a new salad. The second salad comes out with giant CROUTONS! I again, had to bring the waiter over and tell him. No apologies were given, just an eye roll and took it back. The manager brought out yet another salad and said “third times a charm” and laughed. I’m trying to be nice about it all but I get severely sick with any cross contamination and so it’s not really a joking matter to me.
The waiter was very rude, literally tossing things onto our table and did not seem to care about my allergy request at all. I did not feel comfortable eating here based on getting a SALAD wrong three times. This place was not worth it to me.

I’m in town for business and dead tired after a long day, so my coworker and I wanted to find somewhere close to eat. I figured worst case I could order a salad at Pappadeaux, but when I saw down the waiter asked if there were any allergies he should be aware of. He provided me with a pretty short list, but had a couple steaks, a few fish options, and salads. He also noted that because everything is scratch-made, there were a lot of substitutions possible, so the available GF options would be much more extensive. I ordered the naked trout blackened with brown butter. 1- it was huge! 2- it was delicious! To add to it, the place seems to run like a well-oiled machine, despite many large group tables (10+). They also gave us free dessert (crème brûlée) because we told them we had never been there before. 10/10 would recommend!
