Bandanas in Cape does an excellent job making sure my family who is all gluten intolerant can eat with no reactions. On one of our first visits there the cook accidentally put bread on our plates. The sever came to ask if we were gluten free just something we did or if it was medical. We replied medical as who would do this for fun. She said oh I am so sorry but we messed up we will have to remake as your meals. We said that was fine. The chef came out to appologize too. We said that was fine We were just so excited he told usThat alone deserves an exceptional review but the story continues. We have gotten take out more than I can say and everytime our order is perfect They always give us another side instead of bread at no extra cost. I love this. So may times a restauant takes off the bread and gives you nothing else but charges you the same not at Bandanas. Wonderful staff and they get it.

Our server was very helpful, asking to be sure about GF bbq sauce. The menu is marked with "GF". The foods were basic, tasty and safe.

Food was excellent, service was great! Unfortunately, I did get sick. Not a horrible reaction, clearly just a little cross-contamination.

My hope is they may be able to make some small changes and avoid this. It’s really as simple as moving the bread out of the kitchen. It’s too easy for bread to be added to the wrong plate, and then removed immediately without realizing the ramifications.

The other problem is using the same gloves, at most BBQ places I have to request that they change their gloves, to prevent handling bread and then meat. Simply moving the bread out to be added by waitstaff eliminates this and lessens the chances of a mistake being made.

I know it seem like a lot of effort to cater to a few people, but the reality is that once you get on our radar as a safe place to eat, you’ll see a lot more of us!

Terrific BBQ here, and all of their meats and sauces are gluten free. Some of the sides are GF too. Our server seemed fairly knowledgeable about GF issues, and seemed genuinely concerned about keeping me safe.

I am celiac and eat here every time I am at the lake. I have never had a problem. They are conscientious about cross contamination and really accommodating. They have a gluten free menu and you can order online.
