They have plenty of gf options that are decent. Hardly any gf+vegan options though. Last time I got the veggie burger which was one of the driest things I’ve ever tried to eat.

We stopped in for lunch yesterday and I had a really hard time deciding what to order--basically everything on the menu is or can be made GF! Their soup of the day was a rockfish chowder, which I hadn't had before, so I tried a cup of that with the Thai chicken salad. Both were really good! We'll definitely be back!

This is the best place to eat if you are celiac! I'm super sensitive and they are very knowledgeable, friendly, and the food is AMAZING!

I've eaten here many times and had pasta, pizza, chicken, etc and it's all good!

This is a Celiac's dream come true. The owner has gluten issues of some sort, so the menu is very GF friendly. Don't pass this one up.

This was hands down THE BEST gluten free pizza I’ve ever had. I just finished dinner, so I guess we’ll see later if it’s safe, but OMG so good. Their drink menu was very out of date and they only serve one brand of wine by the glass. They lose a star for the drink snafus.

Very Celiac knowledgable and plenty of GF options. They carry Udi bread and pizza crusts. My server stated that they use dedicated screens for cooking the GF pizza. Soups are made using rice flour so almost all are GF. Menu items are clearly marked when GF. Awesome.

I informed the waiter that I am Celiac and require special handling of the food. He assured me that staff would wipe down areas, change gloves, etc. I had the special, which was steelhead trout. The meal was amazing, and I did not get sick.

I chose this place based on an email I sent to them, asking if their gluten free food was actually gluten free. They replied that they do take gluten free serious. So if you actually have an allergy, this is a safe place to eat.

I have not eaten there, but am looking at menus for Celiac options and they list several items with blue cheese crumbles as gluten free. I do not believe they are gluten free.

We are here with my daughter who had celiac. They had great gluten free pizzas, which they assured us were cooked on a separate pan and made carefully, and she was so happy to have a pizza. No issues with cross contamination here!

Great pizza, but the servers aren't always knowledgeable about celiac disease and GF options beyond the pizza. Some of their salad dressings are not GF. You have to be a little careful and ask questions, but overall a very good pizza place.

Great GF menu, wide variety of food and (very tasty) , wonderful desserts,( you just have to get there before they run out), nice atmosphere, and good service. The cost is shown as $$$ and Bobs Burgers and Brew is shown as $. We went to Bobs Burgers and dinner cost just as much as at Fat Olives and completely sucked in comparison. Everything you get at this restaurant Fat Olives, is well worth the cost. Which obviously we cannot say for Bobs Burgers and Brew.

We will definitely be going back to Fat olives again and again!!! And no we won't be going back to Bobs Burgers and Brew.
