Urban Plates

This was about a year ago. One of the staff plating food moved the bread around with his gloved hand while waiting & did not changed before handling my food ( I had already ordered and asked to make sure my selections were gf. (happened pretty quickly. I just didn't eat the item he touched. ) Their portions are small, so between the 2, I left hungry.

Service was great! Food was great! The only minor complaint that I have is that I ordered gluten-free ribs and when I got it it had a big piece of bread on top, however, they were quick to remedy it and brought me a whole new plate. Other than that, fantastic food.

Delicious, healthy, and they were great at helping me choose what I wanted from the variety of gluten free options on their menu. I was happy to return with a friend! I’m intolerant with a mast cell disease, so I’m not sure how I’ll react each time I’m exposed & carry an epi pen because of this.

The staff (especially the manager) was knowledgeable about gluten free and was extra careful about cross contamination. Lots of good options for simple fast eats. It was nice to be able to watch them make my salad in front of me so I could make sure they were being careful to not cross contaminate things. Only reason why it’s not 5 star is there is still gluten in the facility. I am a celiac and I didn’t have a reaction at all though!

Three great experiences. Say no bread. Lots of options, even dessert options.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Everything is clearly labeled, clean areas, knowledgable staff and delicious food!

Ordered a gluten free item from the menu, and I had no adverse reactions.

Just ordered from them. Despite the GLUTEN FREE checkbox, "No Bread" checkbox, and both GLUTEN FREE and NO BREAD printed on the ticket on the bag, the bag had a baggie of bread, and a cup of croutons, the crouton cup was not sealed well and ajar, the bread bag was just a paper bakery style bag with crumbs escaping all over the bag. I ordered a steak plate with mashed potatoes and no gravy, a side salad (that was two large leaves of lettuce and some onions with a teaspoon of vinaigrette), and a tomatoe soup. I inspected all the containers and it didn't seem any crumbs got inside... Less than 20 min later I'm running to the bathroom. *SIGH*

Celiac friendly?

No

I’m dairy free and vegetarian as well as gluten free. Lots of options on the menu, but it was a cold day, so I made the mistake of getting the tofu curry bowl. The dish was grayish-brown, including the tofu and the few vegetables, and tasted bland at best. On the positive side, the customer service rep came over to ask how our food was, and when he heard I was dissatisfied he immediately offered a replacement dish, which I declined because we were going to the movies and couldn’t wait. Nonetheless, as a gesture of good will, he brought me a cookie, which wasn’t gluten free. (My non-GF friend’s salad was beautiful, and she said it was delicious, but I can’t vouch for how safe it was.)
