Love this place! There are very few gluten containing things, so cross contamination is not a big worry. The servers are really knowledgeable too!
Absolutely delicious and almost everything gluten free including yummy cheese rolls on the table. They shared a detailed allergen list that provided info I needed to feel safe and fully enjoy my meal.
Fantastic! Ask for the allergen menu just to double check, but most things are gf, including the yummy pao de queijo (cheese bread) they bring to the table.

They brought me the allergen menu- which was a lot to read as I went through the buffet and as the meats came around. There wasn’t anything that I wanted that wasn’t GF. I had all of the meat that I wanted to try, the Brazilian rolls, and veggies from the bar. A large selection of their menu was GF - excellent service .
Almost everything GF. Cheese bread is GF and delicious.
Food was fantastic my bread loving celiac daughter was thrilled and pleasantly surprised that she got gf bread on the table and got to enjoy so much stuff! Definitely worth the money
My 8yr old daughter has celiac and we went here on vacation. The staff was amazing!! Most all food was safe and she loved it!!
Amazing food and excellent customer service. Almost everything is GF including the cheese rolls. Yum. Remember to order the grilled pineapple for dessert... if you have room!!!
Awesome service. So great options, tapioca cheese bread, fried polenta and mashed potatoes, all sides g-free. The salad bar is most gf, besides the chicken and pasta salad that are next to the bread. No contaminations there' very recommendable for celiacs
*Almost* everything in the place is gluten free. When I told the server I had a gluten allergy he had the manager come over to speak to me. She (the manager) showed me the two meats that were not gluten free due to a marinade or rub (the sausage and the bacon wrapped chicken leg and filet) and walked me through the salad bar to show me what was not gluten free. Several of the salad dressings she could not guarantee were safe due to label concerns, but there was a selection of oils and vinegars so it really didn't matter to me. The sides and table bread are also gluten free - mashed potatoes, fried bananas and fried polenta sticks. The bread is traditional Brazilian Pao de Queso, which is made with cassava flour (naturally gluten free). I should warn you, though - that bread is highly addictive. They also have Mexican Coca Cola (made with real cane sugar) in a glass bottle.

I came here for lunch and had the gaucho lunch, which is just the market table and feijoada bar without all the carved meats. I asked if they had an allergen menu and the waitress brought me a several page print out of their allergy table for everything they serve - super helpful! It was an amazing spread and I was able to eat almost everything, which was wonderful (and so refreshing!).
Pretty much everything is gluten free, so arguably one of the safest places to eat in the area. It's pricey though.
I'm not sure about all the bad experiences others had. Ours was perfect. I made a reservation with open table and put that we had a gluten allergy on it. As soon as we were greeted by the host she immediately acknowledged my gluten allergy and said everything on the market table except one bread is gluten free and all the meats. It was the easiest place to eat in a long time. No reaction. Service was amazing!!!
I asked about GF options and the waitstaff told me pretty much everything is GF except for the obvious stuff like bread, and sausage (less obvious). The website also has a section on GF options. Did not get glutened!
Had an excellent experience here! All meats are gf (they used to use regular beer to make their chicken legs but they no longer do). And almost everything on the market bar is gf … I just had the manager walk me through it and show me what I couldn’t eat. Love their fried polenta (I have them leave off the cheese on top) and fried bananas. They also have gf cheese bread if you can eat dairy. This place is pretty small in comparison to their other locations (like Vegas), so I suggest getting a reservation. Highly recommend! You won’t be disappointed and you’ll leave stuffed. It’s right across the street from Modern Bagel. This is a fun place as the servers come around with skewers of different meats.
