Washington Avenue Grill

Got “glutened” here and thus was sick for a week. I’m vegan though and so my options were limited, the kitchen didn’t know what to make and said it was gluten free but it wasn’t.

The food here is very good though.

I went yesterday and asked the server which items were celiac friendly, and was told all the ones with the “GF” label next to it. Most of these items were fried, but that happens sometimes on a menu and know not to order as celiac. I ordered the fish tacos (which didn’t state the fish was fried) but when I got the meal the fish had definitely had been fried. I asked the server just to double check, and they felt really bad. They fixed my meal right away, pan fried the fish, I did not get sick. I don’t think this was a kitchen issue, I think that maybe the server just didn’t take the precautions needed. I do think they learned though, I ate my meal, and did not get sick. I would come back, just with a bit more caution.
