Not sure why someone said there was no gluten free menu. They have a large amount of GF sushi (just ask your server) and they have a large separate GF menu. In the numerous times I’ve been there, I’ve had their GF edamame, sushi (Mexican rolls, Tuna 2 Times, Veggie roll all made GF), pad Thai noodles, chicken pesto flatbread, and their delicious GF cake. It’s a great place for a date night or a fun night out. Highly recommended!

On 2/21/20, I went to dinner at Crave and was very excited they had a gluten-free menu (with a warning about possible cross-contamination). I ordered a steak salad gluten and dairy free and was upset upon learning, with one bite of salad remaining, that it had dairy on it. They did not pay close enough attention to my dietary needs and I will not trust them again. They did comp my meal and drink, but still...very scary.

Celiac friendly?

No

Ate here tonight for the first time. Gluten free menu but no dedicated fryer. Had the lemon garlic chicken with mashed potatoes and Brussels sprouts. Very good and no gluten per my Nima.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great service & dedicated part of the menu!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I’ve spoken to multiple managers and they were very knowledgeable and reassuring. Their GF menu has a special character to show when an element of a dish is prepared in the mixed-use fryer so you can substitute it for something safe.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I asked for their gluten free soy sauce. Thinking they the right one, I found out after having quite a bit that they brought the wrong one. Their gluten free options are great!

I informed server I was celiac. She told me I'd have no issues with the rice noodles. Should have read the reviews posted here. I've been very sick as they cook rice noodles in same water they cook their other wheat pasta.

Celiac friendly?

No

Staff was very knowledgeable. They have an extensive GF menu. Even on the rooftop, they allowed me to order from the full menu. #GFTCMN

We went for the Mother's Day buffet and it was great! Staff was very knowledgeable and food was great! Lots of variety and options. They even had a special bottle of gluten free soy sauce for me!

They have a separate gluten sensitive menu. I have eaten there weekly as I am in the area for business and never get sick. Their gluten sensitive menu is very extensive. My favorite is a grilled chicken sandwich on gluten free bun with bacon. Delicious! They have lots of salads and entrees and everyone is very nice about it.

Our server was knowledgable about gluten free options. Pointed out items that would be cross contaminated as they don’t have a dedicated fryer. Some items could be baked instead. Would definitely go back.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Big GF menu. I am DF too, so I needed the waiters help to sub in different potatoes. He double checked on all the DF requests with the kitchen. The meal was good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They waiter told me the rice noodles were cooked on same water as other noodles, so I picked the scallops and shrimp sauté and a cauliflower crust flatbread. They brought out wrong order flatbread which contained gluten. They quickly fixed that and the flatbread (caprese) was delicious! The main dish came out and it was mixed with fettuccine noodles. The menu said nothing of pasta but manager assured me it was safe and the noodles were not cooked in same water. It left me uneasy. I won’t go there again.

Gluten SENSITIVE menu NOT gluten free. Servers are very knowledgeable though and did well advising what was safe for celiac versus sensitive.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The wait staff was very celiac knowledgeable, but my celiac boyfriend got extremely ill. I’m thinking they used non gf soy sauce in the edamame - even though we asked several times.

Celiac friendly?

No

Staff is knowledgeable and food is great for people with celiac! Nice to have different types of food to order out.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

NO gluten-free menu. The server suggested I get a salad.

Celiac friendly?

No

Their is a gf menu but they specifically say it is not celiac safe. The waiter also just was trying to say if things were gf based on what it was called and didn’t check with the kitchen.

Celiac friendly?

No

I have had the gluten free pasta a few times and been fine. However the last time I had it I got very sick.

Went here with a large group for a business dinner. They were very accommodating to prepare a custom salmon entree for me. They also had a GF chocolate dessert. Good experience!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Need to make sure they understand you have celiac but they are very careful

My GF meal was delicious and the GF menu was lengthy. I will return!

salmon dish was very bland, and there must of been some cross contamination, because i got sick 30 minutes later

Food was very tasty and I didn't get sick. However, the chef saved me from ordering an item on the gluten free menu that actually had some flour in it. Don't order the creamy chicken and mushroom entire, the sauce has wheat flour in it. They should take that off the gluten free menu.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Drinks good, food ok but 45 minutes to get the meals is a bit much.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Went for a private party buffet. Was told the California rolls were gluten free. Nope! The server suggested a burger with no bun and must have expected me to remove the bun myself. I had to special order it and explain that my daughter can't eat it if it touched gluten. I give one star only because the waitress did ask about ingredients and safe options and had a burger prepared sans bun. My daughter got sick after eating "gluten free" options.

Celiac friendly?

No

First time eating here and thankful to have a knowledgeable server. I ordered the bunless turkey burger and fries off of the 'gluten sensitive' menu...only to learn that they do not have a dedicated fryer and there is panko breading in the turkey burger. Disappointing to say the least.

Eaten here many times with no issues! Servers always have appeared knowledgeable and been willing to accommodate! Good gluten free selection for lunch and dinner!

CLOSED! I need 22 more characterzzzzzzz

Server thought Corona was gluten free/enough said. Steak was safe and didn't make me sick but wouldn't trust much else.

Celiac friendly?

No

Fantastic! Staff is patient and sensitive to food allergies. Food is fantastic! Can get gluten free sushi, soy sauce, beer, burgers, salads (that are more than just ice berg lettuce). Our new favorite place to eat when celebrating:)

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Called before going ,explained that my wife and son both have celiac, I was told that they have an extensive gluten free menu.NOTHING COULD BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH. THIS PLACE IS AWFUL THIS SERVICE IS AWFUL AND THE FOOD IS GLUTEN FREE WHEN THEY REMOVE EVERY SPICE AND SIDE DISH. TRULY THE WORST DINING EXPERIENCE WE HAVE EVER HAD.

Celiac friendly?

No

My daughter is celiac and was served a full gluten meal! She got sick 2 hours later and was up all night. The staff had no idea what was gluten free in sushi and served her pasta!! I use to live Crave but after thus awful experience won't be back!

Gluten free menu was available, although staff knowledge was lacking. The menu itself is kind of "meh". There are bunless burgers and some pasta dishes, but the pasta was not worth $18. Atmosphere is wonderful though, and the edamame was delicious!

pasta dish had no taste. Sent it back for a salad. would not return to eat here again. Service was terrible and slow.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

food was very good. service was horribly slow. not much for gf desert

Absolutely not celiac friendly. There is a GF menu but none of the staff was educated in it (not even the manager). The server was unfamiliar with the menu, the manager was rude and also uneducated to GF needs, and the kitchen prepared everything with gluten. I do not recommend this restaurant at all. So disappointed.

Celiac friendly?

No

Separate gluten free menu with good selections like pasta with rice noodles,etc

Wonderful experience , waiter/waitress knew what celiac disease is and precautions needed with preparing and cooking my meal. Will definitely eat here again. Would have like more meal options.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Overpriced for what you get and a hit-or-miss staff. They have several gluten-free options, though, and my chicken dish was good. No issues with gluten, either.

Had the Crave salad ...awesome !! Had the Mahi that was also awesome!! Lots of options for gluten free dinning....order a cappuccino creme brulee w/o the biscotti for a dessert......Orlando has a knowledgeable staff.....thanks TJ for great meal.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Very nice restaurant, nice atmosphere, and good food! My wife was able to get a pasta dish which was very delicious. There was a salted caramel mousse and a cappuccino crème brûlée, Both of them gluten-free. Both of them very good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

a lot of gluten free options, plus they are more than happy to make you something not on the menu the food and service are great

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great experience and always gluten free. I was able to eat here and not get ill. It has been great over and over again.

They have a Thanksgiving Meal (at St. Louis Park locations) free for those who are low income. I am happy to pay more for a meal that is safe and to a restaurant that supports low income families.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I had cross contamination here. I threw up and got sick to my stomach.

Celiac friendly?

No

Went for their Easter brunch. Chef came out and walked me through the buffet. If a gf item was in a bin with a nongf item I didn't eat it. Still plenty of options. Overall very nice experience.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great food, items that can be prepared GF are marked right on menu. We were there for lunch and had a waiter who seemed to understand my concerns on cross contamination. Have been here three times without getting sick, will definitely go back.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Menu is marked with items that can be made gluten free, but you have to tell them you want it prepared that way (they modify the original dish)! Multiple good options, but as always, be aware - I did have one server bring me pita bread with an appetizer even after asking for gluten free but she was great about taking it back and even getting a new serving plate. All the other times I have eaten here with no issues.

Totally server dependent. Our most recent server disappeared for 15 minutes after I asked about any gluten-free sushi options and came back later asking what we wanted and when I asked about gluten-free sushi he clearly bluffed his way through, just recommending against poké sauces and not even considering tempura rolls. Order from GF menu with care. Also, variable w/requests for no dairy.

Celiac friendly?

No
