South City Kitchen Midtown

I was told by the hostess who was gluten intolerant that she was fine eating here, but she wouldn’t recommend it for people who have celiac or are sensitive.

Servers kept a list of GF options and the chef came out to talk to me about what I had ordered.

Great food, amazing experience. No idea why people put 3 hearts for safety on this one (people seem to do this in general for some reason, even though they don’t experience problems?).

Amazing place for celiac! Items marked gluten free or can be made gluten free, they even offer gluten free bread as a free starter. The shrimp and grits is amazing and they even have banana pudding with gluten free wafers made in house and delicious. So many options and delicious! I’ve been to several locations one of my favorite places!

They were very accommodating. Chose veggies: collards, spaghetti squash with brussel sprouts, and cauliflower. All were excellent. My niece was ok with having the grilled chicken instead of fried. We all enjoyed our dishes. Will definitely go there again.

Fair amount of GF items. Some additional are listed MGF-made gluten free. Server asked if I was celiac and offered to have it prepared separately. Overall, I was very impressed with food quality and care given to celiac.

Several items on the menu listed as MGF, or can be modified to be gluten free. The fried chicken on the menu listed MGF but the modification is to give you a grilled chicken breast. Several other places in town do GF fried chicken and this was the main reason we came, and obviously left disappointed. Allergy wasn't taken seriously, smoked salmon appetizer served for two with toasted bagel slices. Even the cornbread has wheat in their recipe so that was off limits. They offered gluten free bread which was toasted gluten free burger buns. To be fair, they were tasty, but with such limited choices and a misleading menu (fried chicken shouldn't be listed as MGF, grilled chicken is a whole different dish) we won't be back.

Celiac friendly?

No

GF menu with lots of GF available options. Had the shrimp and grits. So good

Very good! Not a ton of choices, but enough & things were labeled gf (gluten free)or mgf (could be made gluten free). They were knowledgeable about replacing my chips with a salad because the chips were fried in the same fryer as gluten containing items! I would definitely recommend them!

Knowledgeable staff, excellent options, tasty food. Note: Fried chicken not celiac safe.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff was knowledgeable and helpful when picking menu items. They do list many gluten FRIENDLY options. They have a lot of items listed a gluten free that are really not. For example, I wanted the grilled apple salad but it turns out the apples are grilled on the same grill as bread. Also, it is topped with pecan ham which is flash fried in the same fryer as gluten food but it is labeled as GF. I had the mixed greens (aka plain lettuce) because it was the only safe celiac friendly option. The waiter was extremely helpful, I even had some ice cream dessert. But just wanted it to be known that it is not a celiac safe restaurant unless you want to eat lettuce. The salad was good and so was the ice cream so that is why I gave it two stars. I just get frustrated when things are labeled gluten-free when they technically have ingredients that are cooked/fried in the same fryer as something with gluten so therefore it is not really gluten-free

Fabulous gluten-friendly food, great atmosphere, and wonderful service. White bean chili, grilled apple spinach salad, grilled chicken livers with onions and bruleed banana pudding. All g-friendly! 10 stars if I could. Sure a little pricey but worth it.

Waiter was knowledgeable. Plenty of gluten free options.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This was incredible food, and the staff was knowledgeable and didn’t bat an eye with the gluten-free thing. Their gluten-free rolls are delicious, especially with a ton of butter and that apricot jam. Highly recommended.

Got glutened off of the GF menu items :(

Fantastic atmosphere! Went with my wife and 2yr old son, along with friends. Or server was great and made sure that everything I had was safe, including a gluten free bun.

We didn't have reservations but we're able to get a table out on the patio which was nice. Unfortunately, parking is very limited along the street (around $2 hour) so we had to park in city parking across the street ($15 flat fee - ouch!). Our server was sweet and helpful giving me a gluten free menu to order from. I picked the grilled chicken with potatoes, collard greens, and au jus gravy - very good!

Yummy gf pulled pork sand which

Delicious, gluten free menu, trained staff. I've eaten there only once, so too early to determine celiac friendliness. Will update.

This midtown hotspot serves up gourmet Southern themed dishes including pan-fried chicken livers, shrimp and grits and a catfi sh Reuben sandwich. Brunch favorites include housemade pecan granola and BBQ pork benedict. The brunch, lunch and dinner "gluten-friendly" menus list dishes made with non-gluten ingredients which are prepared as safely as possible in a mixed use kitchen. South City Kitchen Vinings offers slightly different selections.

Tried the burgers and (amazing) bbq sandwich. Best bbq Ive had here.They use a great bread thats gf. It reminds me of a french style sour dough. STAY AWAY FROM FRIES THEY HAVE GLUTEN. They brought me a salad instead.

Gluten free menu with lots of options. Had a couple appetizers, then shrimp and grits. The food was amazing!
