They now have a separate gluten free menu with several choices for appetizers, salads, and mains. Great food, with no reaction, but on the pricier side of Louisville options.

I have celiac disease. I contacted Eddie Merlot's before hand and was assured by the GM, Jeff, that I could eat safely there. Items were called out as gluten free and they could adjust just about everything else except obvious items (with bread, etc.). My husband and I arrived for dinner, were greeted by the GM, and assured of my gluten free dining. The chef actually came out to talk to me, went over some menu items, and assured me again they could feed me safely. The server also understood my diet restrictions. I had a HUGE baked potato and pan roasted sea bass over julienned vegetables. It tasted wonderful, I felt well the next day, and I'd definitely consider going back.

Food was great. Menu labels every GF option with "GF" . I can not speak to cross in the back, but they say they are careful.

lowered to 3 stat from 5 on Oct 2017. They changed the menu and no longer label the GF items. The server was unsure.

They have a GF menu with many different options if you request one. Just let the server know about your allergy. I wanted the lemon Dijon chicken but they were oddly out of chicken. Went for the salmon instead. While it was good, you may wait a long time for your food as the kitchen is pretty slow.

Very aware of gluten containing items and there were many choices. Crab and corn cream chowder! I wish I could eat this every day. Fillet, Bernaise sauce, crème brûlée were all excellent.

From scratch kitchen so they can do anything gluten free. Servers knew what they were doing. Be sure to tell them you are gluten free before sitting down and they will accommodate well.
