What a wonderful experience! The staff is knowledgeable and helpful and there are many GF options available. The pizzas cannot be made GF, so don’t go there for that.
For appetizer, they modified the Obstinate Flatbread to be the butter bean purée with crudite rather than a flatbread and it was awesome! We also had the Low country Frites which I love. I had a fish of the day which a little too salty for my taste, but perfectly safe to eat. For dessert they offered an affogato!

This place has been really great every time I’ve been, their gf pasta is amazing and the server is always really knowledgeable. There’s no gf menu/markings but the servers always know exactly what I can and can’t have. In the past I haven’t been able to get fried items like the polenta frites due to cross contamination, but last night the server informed me that there’s only really cross contamination when they have something fried with gluten on the seasonal/specials menu, but at the moment they did not have anything other than gf items on their menu that go into the fryer. So going forward I’ll be asking to see if I can get fried things or not!

This is by far one of my favorite places for dinner. While there is not a GF menu there are many options and your server can help make adjustments as needed. My meal was even brought out with a mention of it being GF which I appreciated. I had the grouper and OMG it was the best thing that my table of 6 ordered.

This wasn’t my best experience on our trip. The menu has no GF items marked. When I asked the waiter did tell me of a few options I could choose from. While they do have GF pasta I didn’t feel confident in that option. I think the reviews are a little misleading for a GF restaurant option. I ended up having the Farro Chicken and it was good.

One of my favorite spots in the area. The menu isn’t marked, but every time I’ve been the staff has been happy to review the menu on what is GF. Very knowledgeable and kind. They have a GF pasta and multiple small plates that are GF. The sausage pasta (can’t recall the name) is incredible. Sometimes it’s difficult to get a table, but the bar is fun if you can find a spot.

Been going to OB when we are on the coast ever since it opened. Great confidence in their gluten free handling of our food. Delicious and symptom free.

So many gf options in the menu. Told my server I had celiac and she pointed out tons of items on the menu that would be safe. No pizzas are gf but almost every pasta was. We thought we were full but went down stairs to their gelato shop and in the freezer case were two types of GF cookie/ice cream sandwiches!!!! I got the gf oatmeal cookie and vanilla. AMAZING!

Our server was very knowledgeable about GF and went through the entire menu with us explaining which items could be made GF. The food was amazing! We will definitely be going back.

Not much on menu but they do have gluten free pasta. Be sure to tell them to use clean water. They have learned to be more careful now. When it’s cooked thru, it is tasty.
Gf pasta cooked in glutenized pasta water. You can ask them to make it separately and after saying no.... or it will take an hour to make safely..... they finally agree to do it safely. And it tastes like cardboard after all that fighting to make it safe. It’s such an unpleasant experience for someone with celiac. The apple salad is good. That’s the only positive thing I can say. I will never come back again.

Very knowledgeable about GF. Cute restaurant and fun experience, particularly when coupled with their sister gelato restaurant downstairs.

GF pasta options with pasta cooked in separate water... very good! Waitress was open about how they can’t make GF pizza due to the small kitchen. GF pasta is worth it
Yes
Yes
All of the pasta dishes except for one can be made GF by substituting gf noodles. There were other items on the Small Plates that could be gf, but we ordered pasta dishes. Both were wonderful. Staff was great... when the food was brought to our table by a different staff member he even named both dishes as he sat them down and said that the noodles were gf. (I appreciate not having to ask over and over like a crazy person!)
The wait staff are very educated on food allergies and cross contamination issues. We had the roasted beets appetizer which is amazing and the gf penne pasta Short rib ragu. The flavors are an allergy person dream! You will not be disappointed!
Yes
It isn’t on the menu, but there is gluten free pasta that is substitutable for regular pasta. The staff knew about cross-contamination, and most dishes could be made gluten free besides the pizza. It just isn’t easy to tell from the menu but the servers are very helpful. There is also a gelato place connected that had lots of gluten free options!
Yes
NOT CELIAC FRIENDLY! The food looked good but this is not GF.
They said they had great options for GF but all it was , was taking off things from the plate-like bread- but it COST THE SAME. They take off your sides and serve you a sandwich without bread on more lettuce, but charge the same. not fair for those with celiac.
and all their food is fried in the same oil and the GF pasta is cooked in the same water as the regular. I left and would not risk it.
No
My husband and I had a fantastic meal here. I got the local lettuce and we had the chefs special shishito peppers with a spicy aioli. They use gf penne for their pasta, nothing special about that... but they definitely accommodate for allergies!
They also didn't have a lot to choose from with the dessert menu. So, we went downstairs to the gelato shop and shared that! Which has allergens listed on the glass!
I would definitely recommend Obstinate Daughter!!The atmosphere was my favorite part.
Delicious and the server was very helpful about what was it could be gf. One of my favorite meals while visiting Charleston.
They have gluten free pasta- but they cook it right next to where they throw the pizza dough. And the kitchen is very small.
They were happy to accommodate- but with my other allergies ( soy. Whey) there wasn't anything I could eat on the menu.
They were done and I didn't get sick- but it was really a headache.
No
Server knowledgable about gluten free. Had gluten free penne and gluten free red velvet cake...all delicious! did not get sick at all afterwards
