More gluten free choices and knowledgeable staff. A lot can be made GF. Dedicated fryer for French fries and gluten free baguette and other GF bread. Had terrific mussels, scallops, steak frites and lobster.

Very accommodating. GF noted on menu. Felt safe here. Food is great too.
Yes
The food here is very good but be careful - they don’t have a dedicated fryer (anymore? Maybe never did?). Still a pretty good GF selection though
They take a different approach. Tell them you're GF, they check with the chef for that day's menu, you choose and they make it gluten-free They can make almost any c their proteins GF and have many salads & sides that are GF. Lost one star because like do many places they have very few GF desserts. But what they have is spectacular.

The staff were amazing! All four of us are Gluten Free, three are celiac. The menu is labeled but they are willing and able to adapt other items as well. They have a dedicated fryer and the fries w their garlic aioli were fabulous. We had the carnitas tacos - so yummy and flavorful. Also a burger on gf bun that was so soft and delicious. The mussels were flavorful and perfect with gf bun to dip in the broth. The steak frites were cooked perfectly too. They also have cider. Perfect lunch for our family after walking miles on college visiting tours. Clyde’s has been around forever (it was a favorite 25 years ago when I was a student in DC) it’s great to see they’ve kept up with the times and are committed to feeding us safely.

Had a good experience even on a really busy night. They don't have a gluten free menu but the waitress asked the chef what they can make GF. I had the cod (baked) and the market salad. Very good! Didn't get sick.
I have not had the experience of the other reviewers. The few times I have been, the servers were not particularly helpful and I was not made aware that any menu item could be gf. We have stopped going to Clydes due to the lack of gf menu item options. Maybe one day we will try it again.
As a place for GF dining, Clyde's should earn more than three stars. My server and waitress were trained perfectly, asked me all the right questions and answered mine with all the right answers. Salad and ice cream dessert were lovely, and house wine was a good value, and you can't beat the view or ambiance. I just wish their somewhat pricey main courses tasted better. This was an issue for everyone at my table, not just my GF self.
Yes
Good variety of GF food. I really liked the Chicken #1 burger and their GF bun.

Best GF restaurant experience I’ve ever had! GF items marked on the menu, service staff asked about any allergies before I even said anything, he confirmed with the chef that they would avoid any cross contamination, and there were even separate food runners for my dish so it wouldn’t come in contact with anyone’s at my table. I had the meatloaf, and it was delicious!
