Café de la Rotonde

Had a terrible experience here at lunch. After telling our waiter in french that I have Celiac disease and cannot eat gluten, he replied in English that “gluten free is different over here, everything has gluten.” I again asked if anything on the menu was gluten free and he just said, “I don’t know. You would know better than I would.” So we ended up leaving.

— Not at all

Even though the restaurant isn’t a dedicated gluten-free establishment, it is one of the safest places to eat at in Paris. The fries are cooked in separate fryers, the ice cream is gluten free, the food is mainly steak, fish based, very french cuisine. The waiters and very friendly and informed, so any questions one might have about the food, they are able to answer confidently.
