NorthStar Tavern

Our family if 4 has been to this restaurant twice now. Great both times! First time we shared a few things. Salads, fries, nachos all GF and completely delish! Pretty sure they were the best nachos I’ve had! Second time we got burgers. The two who have celiac one Of them had a different looking bun from the other. I asked the server, she immediately asked if it was ok to switch if to a GF bun or if she should ask the kitchen to remake it. She knew about CC and had it remade with no issues. I told her I appreciated asking me, and not just throwing it on a GF bun. Great server.

I have dined here several times with coworkers and not gotten sick. They have several items gluten free including a dedicated gluten-free fryer and gluten-free buns. I always confirm that their fryer is still gluten-free when ordering. They seem well prepared and accommodate for the food allergy. They have lots of variety of options for you and your group. I have had trouble getting a gluten-free salad when ordering takeout however. They always give it to me with croutons.

The server was not knowledgeable but very willing to check on gluten content. I had the chicken tacos in the starters menu. They were very good.

Dedicated fryer. Items are marked with GF on the regular menu. Server was able to answer my questions with confidence. I ordered the grilled salmon sandwich prepared with herbed cream cheese on a gluten free bun with French fries. My husband had the zoodles and tofu pad thai. Both were excellent, and my gluten eating kids had the Mac n cheese which was homemade. I’m only docking one star because I thought the prices were a little high for the quantity of food. They weren’t huge portions - just right.

Yes

Knowledgeable and great with avoiding cross contamination!! I had artichoke dip and nachos. Then had a birthday dessert....layered cake!!

As delicious and as safe as a restaurant can be.

Clearly marked menu with several GF and V options, including Beyond Burger, falafel, GF buns, GF pizza, tacos, several GF apps like artichoke dip, rotating GF entrees like pad thai with zoodles, and a dedicated fryer. Outdoor patio, great daily happy hour, craft cocktails, wine & craft beer (although not always a GF option). Friendly, casual neighborhood place with good food.
