Santiago's Bodega

Fantastic service and meal for a Gluten Free and Dairy (cow) free needs. Our server, Julia was careful regarding my needs. Items were marked gluten allergy; patata bravas were baked instead of fried, twice baked for equivalent of fried, and sauce on the side as it would have cross contamination if mixed in kitchen in same bowl. Delicious. Beef tenderloin so yummy and marked gluten allergy as were the brussel sprouts, but to be G-F no pine nuts as listed on G-F menu. And the shrimp bisque is G-F as they use a non-wheat flour thickener.

This place was OK. They are knowledgeable on gluten free and they have a variety of GF items. Potatoes were said to be pan fried in menu, but server indicated that it was not the case and mention that cross contact would be possible. Please double check with server. However I find that most plates left me wanting something more. It almost felt like the chefs were getting lazy and losing pride in their food. They also matched food color to plate color, which made it difficult to see the food. Overall this place is fine but I would not recommend it to other foodies.

This is my favorite restaurant and after good going gluten-free it is still my favorite restaurant. I found their menu to have a good variety and I have not been glutened

This place has gotten to be excellent with GF accommodations. They have many menu items, and they pay attention to the small details (like removing pine nuts from a salad that were processed in a factory that also processes wheat!) such great flavors, and safe!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great place for tapas. They have a separate gluten free menu (in same menu book as the vegetarian options so pay attention to which page it is). They have several options that are gf as is and a few that just need to be ordered without the bread component. I ordered the smoked salmon carpaccio and they offered me cucumber slices in place of the crostini. Drinks are great as well and they have awesome happy hour deals. Just specify you have an allergy and they will take extra steps to ensure your food is safe (may take extra time to cook).

Staff is really knowledgeable. Food is amazing, daily specials change every day and sometimes they are all GF if you’re lucky. There is also a server with celiacs on staff

We LOVE the patatas bravas, beef tenderloin, tuna avocado salad, and flourless chocolate cake! Also, staff is friendly and helpful!

Their gluten free menu is not accurate. Luckily, a manager caught it before the server served me the chorizo tapa, which has a wheat based seasoning. It was on the GF menu but clearly wasn't gluten free. It's a classy atmosphere and they serve tapas. Overall a fun experience but they NEED to update their GF menus and educate their servers. I loved their GF Dates filled with Goat Cheese and wrapped in prosciutto and they had a flour-less chocolate cake.
