Berghoff

Very knowledgeable about Celiacs and their options-like to the point it was a little too nervous because it was so easy, haha! But nothing to fear, it was delicious and I did not get glutened. The Sauerbraten and sausage plate were both outstanding, as was the root beer. Service and ambiance were great, as well.

Update: had dinner here a second time (Jan 2020) and got sick from cross contamination. No longer recommended

Decent German food! Very old restaurant with lots of history. There are a few gluten free options marked right on the menu. All staff are knowledgeable and friendly about Celiac's and GF allergies. The flourless chocolate cake at the end was my favorite part!

Excellent food. Server checked with the kitchen to be sure my order was right.

Many GF options and a great awareness by wait staff and the kitchen. I highly recommend The Berghoff, especially if you want a taste of Munich in Chicago.

Excellent! The food was exceptional. The staff wrote down that we needed gluten free. They had ton of options! So much so that my husband ordered a second gluten free entree so I could try his. We had bacon wrapped shrimp with polenta for an appetizer and they had two options for gluten free desserts! I got the caramel cheesecake! I would highly recommend. So impressed. I will definitely be back.

We went for lunch. Totally took care of the celiac in group. She had the roasted chicken and loved it. The others had the goat cheese salad and the beet salad; both good.

So three meals and no one was glutened, but the food was 'uninspired'. Yes it's an institution, worth a visit, but the foods nothing to write home about (except to say it was safe!).

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I had the sauerbraten and it was delicious. The gravy is a bit sweet and the potatoes are a bit bland, but add a little salt and its pretty tastey.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The bacon wrapped shrimp was amazing. Everything tasted good. On the menu it said something along the lines of their kitchen is certified by beyond celiac in preventing cross contamination. Everything tasted good and I had no reactions.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Tried it after speaking to the restaurant via email, reading reviews and discussing at length with waitress. Had the scallops, the zucchini noodles and the bacon wrapped shrimp. Wonderful food but was sick the next day..

Didn't wind up eating there. There was no gluten free beer and no gluten free options on the happy hour menu. The service was very slow and couldn't really answer any questions so we decided to move on and eat somewhere else after the first round of drinks.

Staff knowledgeable. Gluten free items marked on menu. Beef medallions were amazing. Cedar planked salmon very good as well. I would come back again

Had the penne with vodka sauce, didn't have much flavor. Mom gave me her mushrooms from the gf chicken which helped. gf salted Carmel cheesecake is delicious! Thank you! Why can't Cheesecake Factory do that??? Mom didn't lik the texture of what she expected to be mashed potatoes, rice? Ice tea was very good. So was my son's ice cream.

Sauerbraten was excellent. GF Carmel cheesecake was so good!! Lots of GF options to choose from. I'm a celiac and did not get sick. Highly recommend the Berghoff.

This place was definitely celiac friendly but the food was not that great, which is why we give it only three stars. For the price of the food we expected much better flavor and our meals just didn't deliver.

Absolutely delicious. Had the cedar plank salmon, red cabbage, sauerkraut and German potato salad. All amazing. For dessert had the cheesecake and again amazing. A special menu item was mulled red wine, highly recommend.
