Review of Dalie's Smokehouse

Don’t get me wrong- the food here is AMAZING! The people are friendly and helpful- love the establishment for normies. As far as GF safety though, there is a false sense of of it. They will tell you most of the meats and sides (with obvious exceptions) are GF. All sauces except Voodoo are GF. BUT, there must be hella cross contamination. I’m very sensitive and every single time I have eaten here (a good half dozen times), I have had a reaction. I have had the potato salad (typical safe choice), brisket, turkey, and their original sauce in very small amounts. Even without sauce, there has always been a reaction. I do NOT recommend for celiacs. If you’re super sensitive and want to live with the cross contamination consequences, that’s up to you.

I will say- in the same plaza you have The Corner Pub (bar & grill), The Shack (brunch), and The Tavern (seafood/steakhouse)- all are owned by the same family whose daughter is celiac and those restaurants DO have GF menus and other special menus, dedicated prep areas and fryers, and knowledgeable staff.
