Servers are knowledgeable! Make sure they don’t serve the chips with anything labeled gf, the fryers have cc. The salad trio and potato salad is so yummy! I am super sensitive and had no symptoms. :)

Not a huge selection of choices, unless you have a salad but I had the chicken & grits and loved every bite! We sat on the patio & had a wonderful evening. I also ended the night with their chocolate dessert.

Delightful restaurant with lots of gf options. It’s labeled GF if it’s celiac safe and GF* if it does not contain gluten ingredients but is fried in the same oil as gluten (basically the two appetizers). Almost all the salads are GF and about half the entrees. Sadly no GF bread because they look great. We had the trout and the chicken and grits, both were delicious. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly and I didn’t get sick. The patio are is really gorgeous, too!

The drum was amazing! Great recommendation

The waitress was knowledgeable about celiac and cross contamination. I had the curry and it was yummy. Not too many gluten free and dairy free options.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Chicken and grits was great. I feel great this morning too. Not a huge selection of GF but a few options.

I ordered the pork carnitas and Cobb salad. At my request, the server typed in “gluten allergy” and said they would take good care of me. She came back and told me the tortillas were normally prepared in a shared fryer. They offered to bake them instead, and I was ok with that. Then she returned and told me the head chef had noticed my order, and he said that I shouldn’t get the carnitas because it was prepared with soy sauce. Frustrated and skeptical, I ordered the veggie curry. It was terrible. Just potatoes in a pasty curry sauce. The Cobb salad was fine. I did not get sick. But I would not recommend this place for celiacs because there is very little we can eat. In addition to the gluten confusion, the service was abysmal.

My daughter and I both have Celiac. We both had the Chicken and grits. My daughter also had the potato salad which was very tasty! Not only was it delish, it was gluten free. Neither of us got sick after eating. They don’t have a huge amount of GF items, but what they do have is very good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes
