We stopped in for dinner on Friday between flights. Our server was fairly knowledgeable about what was and wasn’t safe, but still sent over there for manager to chat with me. She checked with the kitchen manager that what I was thinking about ordering (shrimp cocktail, green beans, and white rice) would be safe, then returned with their suggestion of off-menu baked shrimp with the white rice and green beans instead. The food was fine, somewhat overcooked, but I didn’t have any reaction afterward and honestly was really grateful to get a solid meal instead of just snacks I’d packed, especially as our flight out of DFW was delayed by about 4 hours.

Team members are very knowledgeable and accommodating about GF options. Food was great just be careful if you have spice issues.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Guten free menu! The waitress advised that if you are allergic than maybe do not go here.

Had a gluten free menu readily available.

They just have a small gluten free menu, but it was delicious. The manager came by to ask about my allergy and confirmed that my order was gluten free. I don’t know about cross-contamination since I’m not celiac, but I was very pleasantly surprised by how seriously they seemed to take allergies.

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!
