Friendly diner with extensive GF menu. GF buns were really good! Wait staff was also knowledgeable and conscientious about other allergens.

Ordered gluten free, informed them I have celiac and cross contamination is a serious issue. Was reassured that all gluten free meals were treated as an allergy and prepared in separate areas. Well I got extremely sick, almost went to ER. Was out of town due to family at hospital so was looking for a place safe to eat. I never eat out for this exact reason.

I've eaten here four times with my family and never gotten sick (always got salads tho). They have a separate gf menu and seem to be really good about cross contact. If a server can't answer your question, a manager comes and answers. It's always been very pleasant.

They had a substantial gluten free menu. I asked the waitress if she had written down that I had to eat gluten free and she indicated she had. They brought out my food separately. Seemed to be aware and careful. Food was very good. Didn't have any gf desserts.

Best GF meal I’ve ever had while eating out! I’m super sensitive, and I had no reaction at all after eating here! I had the blackened catfish, fried corn, and mashed potatoes with brown gravy (the host said that since their gluten-free menu was printed, the brown gravy is now made gluten free, but not the white gravy.) Friendly staff, excellent service.

With a dedicated gf menu, and lots of choices, it's easy to order what you want! The gf bun was one of the few I've had that didn't crumble away as I was eating. We will be back!

Oh my goodness!!!! My husband and I have been gluten and dairy free (a medical necessity) for 9 years. The only time I have ever felt more safe eating in a restaurant was in a completely allergen-free restaurant in Canada. Ramsey's asks you to rate the severity of your reaction to gluten and then they go out of their way to ensure you have a wonderful meal. We are here for dinner last night and couldn't wait to get back for breakfast. They deep fried our breakfast potatoes in a separate pan instead of just saying we couldn't have them as many restaurants would. My omelette was loaded with delicious veggies and the bacon was fabulous. Last night's dinner was just as good. Great southern cooking (lots of bacon and bacon grease lol) and a very large variety to choose from. I'm driving back soon (and I live 4 hours away.)

They have a great GF menu and 2 members of the staff asked me if I had Celiac. They know about true GF which is refreshing. Just diagnosed in July so trying to find places to eat has been a challenge. Ramsey's is my new favorite place!

The service here was excellent.They do a number scale, 1-5, for gluten sensitivity with 5 being celiac disease. The food was good , gluten free,AND reasonably priced. We will be coming back here again and again. Also, they have wonderful catfish and gf buns for sandwiches!

As a sensitive celiac, I figured I'd be eating from a cooler while in Kentucky. I was excited to find that Ramsey's had a gluten free menu with a number of interesting items - but no gf hot brown :( The server assured me that they are very careful about cross contamination. I got a Reuben sandwich and the sweet picked beets - incredible! Absolutely no gluten reaction the next day.

Have a great gluten-free menu, food is great, however, you have to be really careful eating there quite a bit of cross-contamination happens in the kitchen. I’ve been cross-contaminated there multiple times. unfortunately, when the server puts gluten-free on the ticket, the cooks in the back do not always follow it so you have to be extremely careful and let the server know that you have celiac disease… for gluten sensitivity people it is great. For celiac disease you have extremely careful eating there..
