Review of Le Diplomate

I’ve been coming here for years when I come to DC. Never been glutened before, always had an amazing experience.

I haven’t been back since the start of the pandemic till last night.

Usually our servers are outstanding. Our server this time seemed very dismissive of my celiac issues and when I asked then double checked whether the fryer was still dedicated GF, he assured me it was.

I spent the night feverish (a symptom of being glutened) with acid reflux (another symptom of me getting glutened. I felt awful and barely slept.

I went back on Find Me GF and see another person reported their fryer isn’t GF anymore. I’m calling management today to report the server not taking my food allergy seriously.

Very dissatisfied with my experience. Spent a load of money to be sickened.

I do trust they can do GF but clearly stay away from the fryer and ask to speak to a manager as you can’t rely on your server to care or be knowledgeable.
