Almost the entire menu can be made gluten free, they have a dedicated fryer. It’s good but a little overpriced for what you get. I ordered the carne asada tacos ($28 for 3 of them with no sides) and they barely had any meat and the tortillas were falling apart. They put a lot of other stuff in them to make them seem full but it was just filler. I would go again based on how safe it was though.

10 out of 10 isn’t a high enough rating for the food, the service, the variety of options! I couldn’t decide, so I ordered waaay too much and am not ashamed! I couldn’t decide between a pizza or a chicken Sandwhich so I picked both! Aaaand the cheesy puff bread rolls are like Brazilian bites but they’re huge! You must must must come here if you were in the Las vegas area! This is a dream place for celiacs!

Phenomenal experience here. My food came out with allergy sticks and waitress was super knowledgeable. Almost entire menu can be made gluten free. The cookie counter in the front has amazing GF brownies on a separate plate so no cross contamination. We will definitely eat here again!

I’ve eaten here several times now and always had a good experience. They inquire about allergies every time and can modify the majority of menu items to be gluten free if they aren’t already gluten free. The steak frites is great and probably what I’ve enjoyed the most. The rigatoni alla vodka tasted like Spaghettio’s to me, but honestly I wasn’t mad about it since it was a nostalgic childhood flavor I can’t get gluten free. I’ve also had the cheesy dream puffs, guacamole, grilled avocado, and the caramelized brussel sprouts… all tasty and fresh. It’s so nice to have a restaurant where almost the entire menu is accessible to someone who needs to eat gluten free.

Had such a great experience at Summer house. I almost cried over the warm cheese puff appetizer…the texture and flakey-ness reminded me of a croissant which is my most missed food. I haven’t had one in 4+ years. The pizza was delicious too. Almost the entire menu can be made gluten free.

Can’t say enough good things! They can make almost anything on the menu gluten free - excluded items were meatballs, crab cakes, and just a few others. Said that chicken fingers & fish and chips are in gluten free breading. I had the pasta in vodka sauce and I swear it was homemade gf rigatoni, it was way too good. Can’t wait to go back.

I thought the food was great here. Even though it is in the durango casino, it was close to the entrance. Almost everything could be made gf. It has a nice bright atmosphere during the lunch hours. I could see it being a good brunch spot too. My server was knowledgeable about celiacs and not cross contaminating. She had many recommendations. The brownie alamode was fantastic to share with my husband who is not gf. The artichoke was amazing. Good for both gf and not gf.

Fantastic place. Definitely know how to do gluten free right. Separate fryer for cross contamination. Everything properly labeled when it game out and came out separate from non gluten free food.

I had breakfast eggs bacon and my celiac son had noodles and French fries. My other two sons are non celiac and there were no issues.

Will definitely be back.!

Only request is I wish they had a menu or had items labeled on the menu. But otherwise fantastic experience!

The server was so knowledgeable about allergies and made sure to tell me what could and couldn’t be made gluten free (everything but soy sauce had a GF option). All breading on fried food is gluten free and pizzas can be made with cauliflower crust. She even deconstructed a shared Caesar salad so the croutons and cheese were on the side. My entree plate was marked with an allergy toothpick. She also brought serving spoons for shared apps to limit cross contact. I felt so confident that my food was safe, highly recommend.

Great experience. Almost everything is gluten free. Everything fried is gluten free so no need to worry about contamination. We had the guacamole/chips appetizer and margarita pizza. Both were fantastic and my gluten eating husband liked it too. He even ate the rest of the pizza for lunch the next day! Summer House is located in the Durango Casino but super easy to get to, right inside the door and didn’t smell like cigarette smoke at all:)

After hearing nothing but great reviews - had to try the place and was not disappointed.

The ambiance of the restaurant is like being at a resort. But lets discuss the food of which there was a nice variety. Whether you want chicken, fish, pizza, pasta or more - they have it. And the vast majority of the items start out completely gluten free or can be made such.

I had the fried chicken (all GF to start with) and it came with fries (dedicated fryer). They do have a GF bun but I opted not to have one. Others in the group who don't need to eat GF got pizza and the tacos and everyone really enjoyed their food.

They have plenty of appetizers that are GF and I recommend them all - especially the cheesy dream puffs. The dough used is GF and it's so nice to have bread before my meal (or with it).

The staff was extremely knowledgeable which is so appreciative. Definitely will go back!!

Wonderful celiac friendly place! Almost everything can be customized to gluten free. We have the Cheesy Dream Puffs (the best), deviled eggs, artichoke, Brussels sprout salad, and the famous chicken paillard. Fantastic! Will definitely be back in the future.

This place was so beautiful and very celiac friendly!! They said that everything that goes into their fryer is gluten free which made a lot of the menu gluten free! The only slightly confusing thing is they don’t have any GF or allergy labels on the menu itself so you do have to ask about each thing…but there were so many options and our waiter was more than willing to clarify with the kitchen, so me and my GF friend didn’t feel burdensome asking. I had the steak and frites and it was amazing.

Definitely the best restaurant we had ever eaten at in Vegas!! The server was great & I had the best breaded chicken breast ever, it's naturally a gluten free breading with a dedicated gf fryer. The kids meals were decently sized & everything on it can be made gluten free upon request. There is also an option of a gluten free bun and gluten free brownies are available for dessert in the bakery at the entrance or you can order it at your table as well. There is not a dedicated gf menu but the server walked us through what was gluten free and what wasn't. Most of the food was however. 5 STARS!!! ⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great place for lunch. Their whole menu can be made gluten free and they have separate fryer. Only two things on menu can’t be made GF. We tried cheesy dream puffs that are made from tapioca flour and were like popovers (so good). I had the costa mesa salad and would order again. My husband had kale salad, and it was just ok.

Excellent GF ability on everything on the menu except for the cornbread & the meatballs.

Server was very knowledgeable & attentive - first time I've ever had someone note my comment in the online reservation about needing GF!

Fully dedictated GF deep fryer!!! Coating on chicken & fish that is fried is GF!

Food came marked w a GF "stick" and the delivery person (not server) knew I was the GF needing person at the table.

Only minor suggestion... I wish they broadcast this celiac super friendly ability!

Otherwise, restaurant is very nice, light, bright, and perfect for either a business or social meal.

So many gluten free options but our server was not knowledgeable so make sure to speak with someone you know is knowledgeable! Our server was so busy and just guessed that the fryer was not dedicated gluten free. We tested his theory and he came back to notify us that everything in the fryer is GF!!! Amazing. Got the chicken fingers and 12 hours later no bad reactions. Will be back and hopefully have a more knowledgeable server :)

The staff is ready to help you manage the menu as a celiac eater. I wish they had a gf marker on their menu especially if thry are so open to the hf community. We had lavender haze and truffle fries in the dedicated fryer. Wood grilled artichoke a d Brussel sprouts to start. We were all in for more until we saw how big the portions are. We got sunk with appetizers and are not mad. We will be back for fish and chips and steak frtes. Excited to have options. Let's get a gf menu at Summer House for the gf and celaic community!!

As a Celiac, I legitimately LOVE Summer House in Las Vegas at the new Durango Resort that opened in December 2023. I've already eaten here multiple times! It's a gorgeous restaurant.

I have had the fish and chips (x2) $35.95, the steak frites $38.95, the picnic fried chicken basket $22.95, the 2 Tickets to Paradise cocktail $18, the potato salad deviled eggs $9.95 for 3 halves (delicious but too pricey) and the shishito peppers for $12.95. I've also had the $3.95 gluten-free chocolate chip cookie and brownie from their bakery bar in the front.

According to our first awesome waitress, Shelby, they don't have a marked menu but they have a dedicated fryer! The batter on the fish and the chicken is gluten-free! I already contacted them via survey to let them know how important it is to mark their menu because this is an incredible selling point.

I get it, some people are weird about seeing "gluten-free" on a menu and won't order those items. So don't mark it on the regular menu. What is important is to at least have a separate menu so that people who care can ask, "do you have a gluten-free menu" and can find it online or in the restaurant. (BJ'S Brewhouse also doesn't mark "GF" on their regular menus, but has a separate stand alone menu with items that can be amended to be gluten-free.)

--- I'll say it a zillion times - not advertising that you have gluten-free options or a separate gluten-free menu is LEAVING MONEY ON THE TABLE. I have to research restaurants before I go to see if they accommodate me. If there is no indication that you can serve me, I'm not going to necessarily call every restaurant and ask for a host to talk to a chef and get back to me.

--- As a Celiac, Las Vegas casino resorts generally do not have microwaves in their rooms and almost none have mini refrigerators. If you have a medical dietary restriction, not only can you not bring your own fresh food to your room because there's no way to store or heat it, the restaurants on property can't accommodate you either! Summer House, you can and have accommodated me. Rather than eating a protein bar in a hotel room, I want other celiacs to patronize your business. At least have an online menu for "allergens."

--- Celiacs, people with wheat allergies, EoE, Crohn's, Hashimoto's, and rheumatoid arthritis all need to follow a gluten-free diet. Nevermind the amount of people without a diagnosis that are actively seeking foods that don't contain gluten (it takes on average 7 years to finally get a diagnosis of Celiac.) There are so many of us that want to spend our money at restaurants like Summer House but we have no idea that you exist if I can only find out by talking to our waiter once I'm already there. I only found this place on a fluke because my initial visit was during a mock service before opening.

--- Lettuce Entertain You Group, Help us spend money at your restaurants by at least having a separate menu with marked, gluten-free options! I don't care if it's just a QR code. I told my gluten-free online groups about this place and gluten-free people are so excited!
