Ridgway Bar & Grill

No gluten free menu, but our waiter was extremely helpful.. Because of my garlic allergy in addition to celiac and dairy, it’s not always easy to find a meal for me. This was lunch and I chose the crab Louie minus the shrimp (cooked in garlic), we made a 1000 dressing at the table (their dressing had garlic) and it was wonderful! Very busy large restaurant and does not take reservations, but I’d go there again. The staff were helpful, friendly and patient.. I was given several other options they would have adjusted from menu items to accommodate my allergies. NOTE: my apologies.. this review was for a different restaurant. I haven’t eaten here, but it looks very good.

Love the food here, menu items are clearly marked GF, however their gluten free menu is not geared towards celiacs. You can definitely have a safe meal here but it requires some questions first. For example, I ordered their omelet that comes with potatoes and is marked GF. I asked about the potato preparation to find out they are first cooked in a shared fryer before being pan fried. Because of this I opted for a side of fruit instead with my omelet, which was still great! So you can definitely get a safe meal here, but make sure to ask the proper questions even if the menu item is labeled GF.

Great gf options, however no gf bun available for a hamburger? My gluten free son was very disappointed. The fries are not in a dedicated fryer so he could not have those. I was disappointed that they couldn’t pan fry it or find another way to make it work. My son was able to have a steak with salad and a flourless chocolate cake. Other guests that had gf options included grouper and snapper in lemon sauce. The mash potatoes and ratatouille was gf and delish as well. See photos attached.

A bun less hamburger is not a gluten free hamburger. It is a Hamburg patty.

$23 Hamburger is labeled as gluten free but comes without a bun 😂 it is not labeled or written as bun less. my 6 year old was beside himself.

Fries are supposedly gluten free and delicious.

In love with this restaurant, fantastic gluten free options. So many delicious choices. Staff are knowledgeable and accommodating. My child with celiac had steak, mashed potatoes, Caesar salad, and flourless chocolate cake. Excellent.

Waiter was extremely knowledgeable about celiac disease and the differences in preparation protocol between celiac and other gluten allergies. Ordered a Honeycutt salad. Sauces were confirmed gluten free. I omitted the fried tortilla chips just to be safe since the fryer is not dedicated. Great experience and atmosphere, food was just okay.

Has the best first experience there being gluten free. The waitress was very kind and considerate of my situation and pointed out the best entree for my taste buds. She even went above and beyond by getting the chef to add a side homemade gluten free pasta to my entree and and free gluten free desert that both were not on the menu! Will definitely be returning!

The staff was knowledgeable and made me feel safe eating there. Not a separate menu, but the main menu is marked with what can be made gluten free and the majority of the menu can be GF.
