Silver City Restaurant & Ale House

I have celiac and I am very sensitive to cross contamination. I was impressed by how many gluten free options were available, and each item was clearly noted in the menu. My server was knowledgeable as well. I had the fish tacos and they were excellent. I will definitely eat here again in the future.

Have eaten here a few times, and the staff is always very accommodating. I’ve had a couple waiters who were not knowledgeable about cross-contamination, but they always spoke with management and the kitchen about cross-contamination. I have always felt taken care of. They will change gloves and prepare burgers and gluten-free in a clean pan if you request it. The gf burgers are delicious. Fries and pizza cannot be made without risk of cross-contamination, but I just substitute the fries for a side salad. Once another waiter other than our assigned waiter brought out the food and the side salad had croutons, which was an oversight when they were slammed. Waiter immediately checked on us and brought me a new salad immediately. Also, the waiters always have helped me find a gf cider. So they’re not a gold standard for gf, but I’ve always felt like my food concerns are taken seriously and the service is good. I am really reactive to small amounts of cross-contamination, but I’ve NEVER gotten sick here.

I went there because someone told me there was a lot of gluten free stuff on the menu. When i got there they told me that the only thing that would be safe for me to eat was a plain salad, and they couldn't prepare any other food in the menu without cross contaminating it. They said the don't even cook the gluten free items in different pans than the gluten stuff. I left because i didn't feel safe eating there.

I’ve had the gluten free pizzas several times with no issues and they were very tasty.

I also had a gluten free option from one of their chicken dishes. It was good but I started to feel sick before we even got home.

Only a hand full of options, mainly would stick the the alcohol. They only have one type of Gf beer. Fires are in a non dedicated fryer, very high cross contamination rate. They can make the bun without the bread but even the grill is not safe.

Had the salmon BLT on a gluten free bun that was one of the better gluten free buns I've had in a long time. It was moist, chewy (in a good way) and like regular bread. The chef did an excellent job of putting lettuce, bacon, tomato and then salmon so the warm meat was not melting away the bun. It's the small details that matters.

My 11 year old daughter has Celiac and has had the burger without any issues. They DO NOT have a dedicated fryer so fries are not available. Today she ordered GF penne pasta with a Garlic butter sauce (not on the menu) with GF bread. The server patiently explained how they prepare the food to minimize risk of cross contamination. Like any restaurant I think it is important to clearly communicate that Celiac isn’t a preference for GF, it is a medical issue. Ask as many questions as you need to to feel comfortable. This restaurant understands what GF is about for those with Celiac.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

There are a good handful of menu items labeled gluten free, but I always ask. I ordered a pizza on a gluten free crust, and the waitress was kind enough to have the kitchen staff go check the packaging for the sausage on it to ensure it was also gluten free. without prompting she told me she would have the staff change their gloves and cutting board before preparing my food, and also warned me that cross contamination was still possible. I appreciated how aware she was, and she never acted like my asking was a burden. my pizza was great and I did not get sick. EDIT: Some items labeled gluten free are not! At another visit I was considering an item labeled gluten free that featured chips they make in-house. The chips are made in the same fryer as their breaded items!

I have been here and had great food and no issues many times. last night I ate there and had the GF pizza and got very ill. I guess you really really have to communicate your issue if you eat here. I might very cautiously attempt again in the future, but am very dissapointed.

Celiac friendly?

No

Best GF pizza I have had. Can't even tell it's GF.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I ordered the ribs and corn dip appetizer, which are both labeled "gluten free" on the menu. The waitress was very conscientious and knowledgeable. I was surprised when she came back and told me that the chef had just told her that one of the rib sauces actually has wheat in it, but "just a little bit". She acknowledged that there is no such thing as "just a little" gluten for a celiac and stated that no one understood why the menu was labeled like that. Thank goodness she took the time to check, and I am grateful for that. Unfortunately, while I of course cancelled the ribs, I ate my appetizer (which was also labeled GF) and STILL got sick. I will never go here again.

I had the Greek pizza with gluten free crust. it was amazing!

Good gluten free menu. Great food, great service. --- Ask for Casey - very knowledgable!!!

Not many options :-/ mostly items without buns or plain salads. Disappointing and not worth the high cost.

I'm sure it was the waitress I had, because she messed up with a lot on our order. However I was given a regular pizza when I had asked for a gluten free crust. She was very apologetic but we still had to pay for the pizza when I feel it should have been free.

Celiac friendly?

No

Their ribs are amazing. Great service, a bit more pricey but large portions and good food.
