They no longer have a separate menu with gf choices, but the waitress went through everything with me. Most dishes are gf anyway. All the pasta can be made gf. We went for our anniversary and had a great meal. I got the bolognese and then crème brûlée for dessert. Pricey but a nice option for a special occasion.

Unusual to find a restaurant with a dedicated gluten-free fryer. GREAT gluten free bread for appetizers or entrees. Wide choice of appetizers, which is also unusual. We go often and NEVER have to worry about having issues. Wait staff is extremely knowledgeable. Specials also include choices gluten-free. Favorites include Calamari Frite appetizer with rice flour, crispy brussels, truffle fries. I love, love their sweet and spicy burger because the GF bread is so good. Steak Frites and whatever fish special they have --- you can't go wrong.

Waitress was very helpful. She said to pick anything off of the menu and they would make it GF. Fries were cooked in a fryer dedicated for GF cooking. Chef came out of the kitchen to make sure everything was all right.

One of my most favorite restaurants. Lots of homemade items. A few GF options or things can be substituted to make an entree GF. Have GF pasta and bread for sandwiches when you ask for it. Wish they had GF rolls. I also avoid dairy and they are very accommodating. Menu changes seasonally so GF options may be limited sometimes.

Probably the most Celiac- Friendly place I’ve ever been to. They are extremely safe in the kitchen, have a separate gluten free fryer, gluten free bread, gluten free pasta, and can make almost everything on the menu gluten free. This is also the only place I’ve been to that has gluten free calamari. Staff is extremely understanding and kind, I’ve been there for every birthday since I found out I had celiac and will continue doing so!

I found Thea at Findmeglutenfree.com. My wife is gluten-free, dairy free and intolerant to garlic and onions. The chef was so accommodating and willing to work with her dietary restrictions. The meal was amazing and both my wife and I are thoroughly happy with the overall experience. This place is highly recommended for people with food allergies.

The menu marks where items can be made GF, and there are many options. The server noted that the fries are fried in the same oil so those are not safe, which made me feel confident in their knowledge of cross contamination.

There were so many options and they all seemed great! I had a hard time choosing.

Their staff was great and the meals for everyone - both gluten free and not - were so good! Everyone loved it.

Very clean and contemporary restaurant with a lengthy lunch and dinner menu. I had a crab salad sandwich which was delicious. The bread was good, but broke apart like many gluten-free breads do. I would definitely come back for dinner. Enjoy!

Thea was delicious. The owners own the Sophia restaurants as well and take caution with gluten free/celiacs. They had gluten free bread from a bakery in Philly and several options for lunch. We will definitely be back for dinner!
