Great experience. Manager walked us through the salad bar and indicated the items we were to avoid as well as the one meat to exclude. Great taste, expensive but were cared for well by management.

Honestly had a great dinner. The waiter didn’t know much, but their website has an amazing allergen menu that tells you exactly what you can and can’t have. Including cocktails! At at the salad bar, had the majority of the meats that came around, got a drink and a dessert and did not get sick!

We asked the a manager to walk us through the salad bar and sides that were gluten free. She started giving us a list which included cheese, deli meats, potato salad and asparagus for the salad bar. Then they brought hot sides to the table and we had to ask her to come back and tell us about those. She told us the rice, French fries and cheese bread was gluten free. I questioned the fries and asked what else was fries in the same oil. She said nothing. My boys (both with celiac disease) spared no time and dug in. About 5 minutes later she came back and told us the fries were not gluten free. We left with a $200 bill and 2 sick kids.

The food here was terrible and overpriced! With the facade of a fancy restaurant, they served canned beans, bland cheese, and raw vegetables. Definitely not vegetarian friendly, but they have a lot of meat —which we didn’t try because the salad buffet was terrible so we didn’t feel like paying double to eat meat. There are gluten free options, but the food is simply not worth paying for. I don’t understand the hype at all!!

I ate there and it was delicious. Didn’t get glutened. However, the staff did not walk me through the salad bar. My waitress gave me a sheet of the GF options but the salad bar items were not labeled. A manager went through the salad bar with me once I asked.

The tabbouleh contains gluten and it was next to the GF mozzarella balls. I found pieces of tabbouleh in the mozzarella for example. I’m a new Celiac so I’m sure this is very common.

The meat is GF and the fried bananas and cheese bread. I ate a lot of those ;)

Free cheesy bread when you sit down which is gluten free, amazing salad bar filled with mostly gf options, all meats are gf as well. Pricey but a cool experience, worth it for a nice dinner out in Detroit.

I told the servers that I have celiac, they neglected to tell me the mashed potatoes have flour in them. When I told the manager what happened, he only took $20 off the bill

Such a great and wonderful experience! Most all of the menu is gluten free and what little isn't, you would never miss with all the options they have.

The salad bar is amazing with salad, charcuterie, shrimp, salmon, potato salad, asparagus and much more!

All the meats are gf, and they were all so delicious!

Definitely a GO-TO choice!

One of my more disappointing experiences at a Texas de Brazil. The meat (which I asked for as rare to medium rare) kept coming out medium well. Then, I finally got something the correct doneness, only to find out it wasn't gluten free. My waiter was informed of my allergy, but he didn't tell the manager, so I wasn't warned one of their steaks is not GF. Where I normally go, in another state, has said all the hot meats are GF.

I was unimpressed with how the lack of information was handled also.
