Worked with Gluten Intolerance Group on their gluten-free menu. Special training is required for staff.
100%safe I have a wheat allergy, I felt like I was in heaven when I told Melissa that I am gluten free she brought all my items gluten free the cookies and even the bread that didn’t taste like cardboard. The brownies were delicious the peppered steak was my favorite. It was great having Melissa very knowledgeable with gluten free. This was the best place we ate at for our anniversary!!

Not much was done to be careful after I told the hostess and the waiter my son and I both had celiac. The waiter brought out teriyaki on the sauces tray and told me to “avoid it” when it shouldn’t have even been on the tray in the first place. When dessert came out, he ended up bringing out a platter for us that all contained gluten, and upon setting it on the table, he had realized after analyzing my facial expression that he brought out the wrong thing and said “oh right, gluten free”. He was mindful of the nuts that could have cross contamination and left them off, but then brought out multiple things with gluten on them. It felt like minimal effort was put in and I didn’t feel safe eating there, even after multiple confirmations that it was safe and they take precautions with celiac. For how much I spent here, I really was not amused that we weren’t taken more seriously with our allergy.

Went here today, and was nervous trying it first time post diagnosis! The menu was clearly labeled and the waitress, Katie, was amazing. The food was fine and decent quality. Nice to have a date night option!

This was hands down the best dining experience I have had since going gluten free. I felt so comfortable with everything (because my server was great, but they also prepare everything at the table so I knew everything that was going into my meal). Food was amazing. The gluten free options were to die for! I actually asked for the recipe (jokingly), it was that good. Wish I had one close to where I live! Will definitely return!

I’ve been here three times in the last two years and the first two times I thought the servers were very knowledgeable and careful but this last time I had to dodge many mistakes and did end up getting sick despite having one dedicated GF burner with my family. Served veggies with a floured potsticker on top and all the desserts came next to each other— stacked potstickers next to meats, etc etc.

One of the best GF dinners I have had in the last 8+ years. The whole menu is GF minus a few sauces and meat options. Everything is labeled on the menu and the servers are very knowledgeable. They have GF bread and brownies. Even the drink menu had GF labels.

This was a great dining experience. The staff was very knowledge of the restrictions that come with celiac. They even had a bread alternative for dipping in the cheese! GF desserts to dip as well. Definitely pricey but, expected with this place. Highly recommend. No reaction other than feeling stuffed from the 4 course meal! Will definitely be back :)

I cannot even begin to express how incredible my experience was! It’s not the first time I’ve dined here, but it was the first time I had been since becoming gluten intolerant. They absolutely catered to me! Paige and Allie went above and beyond to ensure I knew what I could and couldn’t have, and were incredibly attentive to our every need! Plus the wheelchair accessible table was perfect! Thank you!

All I can say is WOW!! This was our first time eating here and decided to go to celebrate our anniversary. We made reservations for 7pm and were seated as soon as we arrived. We tried to take a selfie outside the restaurant on our “date night” and the man opening doors came out and offered to take our picture. Our waitress/cook was Raven. She was absolutely AMAZING! Literally the best service we had the whole week! My husband has celiac so we ate together. Raven was very knowledgeable about GF options. We got the 4 course meal. We started with the Fiesta Cheese Fondue with Redbridge beer base. WOW!! I could have made this my whole meal! Next came our house salads. Again, the freshest salad I had eaten all week! Our main course was filet, sirloin, and dry rub pork. So tender and delicious! Last, but certainly not least, we got the dark chocolate fondue. It came with strawberries, marshmallow,s gf cake bites and gf brownie bites. THE. BEST. MEAL. EVER! Not only was the meal wonderful, our waitress was amazing and answered all of our questions and concerns. Highly recommend and will be returning!
I went with a party of 4 and they originally put us at a table with one burner. When they found out I had celiac they moved us to two tables of 4 and pushed them together for us so we could be together but the other two didn’t have to order according to my diet. That was above what any other restaurant would do so it was really appreciated. They had all the same options for bread and desserts they give the gluten eaters so I didn’t feel left out. It was a good experience.

The food was fine, the restaurant is dated but fine. My main issue is that the server wasn’t even remotely trained on gluten free practices. I barely ate anything - didn’t feel very comfortable at all. Two main issues:
1.) the server offered to bring out gluten items with the gluten free items and didn’t realize at all that it would be an issue to put them in the same pot and then kept accidentally bringing gluten + gluten free items.
2.) he also brought out the wrong dessert and dusted graham crackers all over the table, my plate and everything else before I could stop him so I wasn’t able to eat dessert.
It’s only been about 20 mins and I’m not feeling great.

This was a great experience. We were a group of eight, and we called ahead and asked for GF meals for all. The server was friendly and asked us questions about our preferences and comfort level every step of the way, and explained how everything was prepared. Once he even brought out a bottle of seasoning to show us the ingredients and let us choose if we wanted it. The server brought paper straws to the table and we gave feedback that paper straws often have wheat paste. The server notified the rest of the staff, and a little while later he remarked that half the staff was standing in the kitchen doing research on the safety of their paper straws! It was great to see their investment in their GF safety. FYI that two of us are Celiac and one has a peanut allergy. Whole family eats GF in solidarity when together. Everyone loved the food.

Avoid this place at all costs!!! they do not care much about the gluten free aspect. i told them i am celiac and for every course they brought out the gluten one and said “let me go grab the gluten free one real quick” did not feel safe at all eating any of the food. asked for just fruit with the chocolate and the strawberries had crumbs of something on it. super disappointed and will never ever be coming back. i do not think they should have the GIG certification.

I loved this place. My boyfriend and I came here for our 3 year anniversary and they brought us a little card that the staff had signed. They were very accommodating to my gluten sensitivity and they had a large variety of gluten options to pick from. The gluten free brownies and snickerdoodles taste just like gluten ones. Would 100% come back.

We were super excited for date night here without the kiddos and we were super impressed to see all the gluten free and dairy free options. Our server was educated and did all she could for us HOWEVER, something labeled GF isn’t. My boyfriend puked in the bathroom before we left after we got through our entree. We’re assuming the gluten has something to do with an entree. Thankfully it was our last day on vacation so he was only miserable the last night. The manager did come out and talk to us to see what we thought it was so they could fix it for future and gave us 50% off our meal and offered to send us home with the dessert portion. Just be very cautious when eating here.

My husband and I ate here and loved it. Everything we ordered was gluten free just to keep it all safe. We got the 4 course meal starting with the cheese appetizer of spinach articoke dip, which came with some veggies and gluten free bread. Then we had salads, and then the Big Night Out proteins substituting the terriaki and ravioli out for extra filet. For dessert we got the flaming turtle which was served with amazing gf brownies and snickerdoodle cookies. Our server was very knowledgeable about gf items and even mentioned that the gf items were kept in a separate area. We would definitely go back!

They were really good about letting us know what we could and couldn’t eat. We also can’t have dairy and even though gluten containing items are clearly listed on the menu dairy items are not. But our server was excellent and knowledgeable and checked with the chef when he didn’t know. We felt totally safe here. When making a reservation just make sure to ask for a table with two burners if some of your party will be eating gluten so you can get separate pots.

This is a certified gluten free restaurant at which we had dined safely before. However, last week after confirming MANY times on both my reservation and with waitress that my child needed to eat gluten free, and after confirming twice that the food put on our table was gluten free, the waitress came back 10 minutes into eating to say that there was a “mix up” and our fondue had gluten. Nothing but a “sorry” was offered. My child was very sick. I would avoid if you have celiac or a gluten allergy.

Just about everything on the menu is gluten free with a few exceptions - most obvious like the bread, anything with teriyaki, and a few other dipping options. They gave me both gluten free bread (which was some of the best I have ever had) and 2 other gluten free desert dipping substitutes, put things on my own platters to the side, and were overall very helpful and cautious. If you are sharing a pot with someone just have them share something gluten free or avoid cross contamination by scooping out the cheese/chocolate with their own spoon to pour on top of the dipping items with gluten. It was some of the best gluten free food I have ever had - I felt very safe and always love my experience here.

My partner was glutened here after TRIPLE CHECKING with the server.
After asking for a gf version of a dish that said gluten free with substitution, it was brought out with two suspicious items. We asked if those items had gluten, and they brought a new dish with one of them removed but said the other one was gluten free.
The next day, my partner felt like she had been glutened. We called the restaurant, and it was confirmed that they served her gluten EVEN AFTER CHECKING THREE TIMES!
They assured me this issue should be resolved, but please be careful if you go. The dish was The Garden Pot, and the items that contain gluten were the pasta (obviously), the veggie bratwurst, and the beyond meat.

Took my daughter for the first time and was blown away with their gluten free selection and knowledge. I spent dinner saying “we can’t eat that” and always got the reply “it’s gluten free”. Menu is clearly marked. We are also vegetarian usually making gluten free eating tricky. Not here. Best dining experience in a long time! I cannot wait to do it again. The Melting Pot will be our new go to restaurant!

They have an extensive number of gluten free options. And their staff tries really hard but it is just not safe, especially if you have other allergies as well. If you are very vigilant and know what to look out for, you can usually advocate for yourself and might end up with a safe meal. But after tonight we have permanently crossed this place off the list. My daughter ended up in the hospital twice and tonight could lead to the same.

Made from scratch fondue experience that you cook at your table. Items on the menu where clearly marked GF or they listed GF alternate ingredients. They have GF bread and dessert trays.
Most importantly, you may ask for a table with two burners. So others in your party of order dishes with gluten and not worry about cross contamination.
The staff is knowledgeable and will work with you.
The drinks are pretty good too!

Went last night, waiter kept forgetting I was Celiac. Brought out regular bread, luckily I checked and he fixed that but I don’t think he used a new plate. Brought out sauces with gluten in it even though he said he was going to get a different one. Ended up getting sick. I gave it 3 stars as the food was good (stupid expensive but good) and I think i got sick from a bad waiter and not so much the restaurants fault.
