Staff were very knowledgeable. However, the amount GF items are very limited. I had the beef tenderloin poke. It was well done!

Our daughter’s wedding was at The Malcolm this past summer. We had somewhere around a 100 people and the food was served buffet-style. Everyone seemed to love it and especially those of our guests who, like me, are living with celiac disease. Almost all the dishes were identified as safe without being conspicuous. And cross contamination was avoided by careful placement of the serving dishes. We had hearty eaters (think football players) and they were going for seconds and thirds. The next day we hosted a brunch and again, the staff did a marvelous job for those of us needing safe gluten free food. I think it would be amazing if they had just a few more gluten free items on their regular, non-banquet menus to accommodate the gf crowd.

Symptomatic Celiac

We came here last summer and the options were fairly abundant. They currently only have two safe dishes for celiac. A sirloin poke dish (raw meat) and a salad. Their fryer is cross contaminated. Their menu denotes what is GF and what is GF friendly and likely has cross contamination, so they at least know what they’re talking about. But I’m disappointed in how narrow the menu has become compared to prior visits.

The Stirling restaurant inside this hotel is very good with all allergies and will prepare all your choices gluten free.

Eaten here twice and both times staff was very knowledgeable about Celiac and cross contamination. They prepared all my food in separate pans/plates. And they double checked with the chef on the specially prepared butter. I super appreciated their efforts to make sure my food was safe. The menu was labeled and it's true there were few GF options. But the staff was very willing to prepare most of the dishes on menu to be GF if you just ask. And the food was good!

The food is just okay here - but the service is outstanding. Not a lot of gf or vegetarian options, but our fantastic server (Crazy Amy) went out of her way to find food for our celiac son. Luckily he didn’t mind having four bowls of olives for dinner haha! Recommend for drinks because the service is so good, but not for much else.

This restaurant is in the beautiful Malcolm hotel, and they have a lounge and dining room menu. The only gf option on the lounge menu other than salad or very expensive steak is the butter chicken, although it was good. Nothing fried is safe for celiacs. But the staff was knowledgeable and accommodating, and they mentioned being able to make something else with more advance notice. So if you were staying in this hotel, I would recommend talking to the staff, as I’m sure they would help to find safe and delicious food for you.
