Topside Bar & Grill

Really bummed, I drove for 45 minutes to get lunch & it was closed. Nothing on their website or online indicated it was outside their normal hours, noon on a Monday ?!

Although they marked several items on the menu as”gluten free”, many are not!

The waitstaff and cooks are not knowledgeable about gluten or Celiacs.

For example, the teriyaki bowl is gluten free?! When I asked about ingredients, they weren’t sure. After a few back-and-forths, they conceded and said it shouldn’t be gluten free since the sauce has wheat/gluten. Same story for many other items… example including fries - the oil is unsafe for celiacs since breaded items are cooked in it.

We randomly happened upon this hidden gem. Amazing view of the south sound. Loved their food! They have a bunch of GF options and are very careful with dietary needs. The staff are delightful. Our server was great. New favorite restaurant!

The Topside Grille is my favorite place to eat! The staff knows what gluten is, and which items do not contain Gluten. Not an extensive menu, but the items on it, are yummy! The also have gluten free buns for their burgers. The view from the deck is incredible!
