Pro’s: Great options for Celiac Disease + good GF bread. Coffee keeps flowing, it’s $5 for unlimited self serve. Central location next to Capitol.
Con’s: Slightly underwhelming portions. Lox bagel does not come with cream cheese. Not a ton of unique / strong flavor for an $18 meal.
It generally felt like a restaurant that used to be charming in its origins but has commercialized.
Visited here for a birthday dinner the night before a Fever game. Amazing dining experience, top notch service. The staff were very accommodating with my gluten free and dairy free needs.
Was in the area, and looked up gluten free options, and this place came up. When I walked in, I was able to sit at the bar (which had a ton of seats) and immediately got served by Leah, the amazing bartender working today. They had a ton of different burger options and had gluten free buns available, which can be hard to come by. The burger was made to order, and the one I got had an interesting flavor. It had a basil aoli, mushrooms, onions, and goat cheese (of all things). The bourbon based drink is ordered was tastefully made, and overall I enjoyed my experience. All of the staff were nice and attentive; you could tell that they all worked well together.
I am an admitted Cafe Patachou addict... but I swear their chicken salad sandwich has restorative powers! And only place in town I know of you can get gluten free waffles!! 💙
The roasted brussels sprout appetizer is amazing! Also, pair your meal with one of the CH house wines. We chose a smooth merlot with our dinner and will do so again, it was that good.
Our server was very attentive and professional, very knowledgeable on the menu and wines. He insured that my meal was prepared gluten-free which I greatly appreciated.
Reservations are recommended on the weekends.

We make this a usual stop about once every 3 months. Service was far better this time than last. My wife has to be gluten free and she hasn't had any issues when eating here! The tacos are fantastic!
An update after my visit: despite noting that I have an allergy and needed the gluten-free pancakes, I was served pancakes with gluten. Through sheer luck, I commented on a separate allergy-related issue, and a new staff member (not the one who took my order) got confused and asked "You do realize these have gluten, right?". They prepared a new, safe, order quickly, but it was concerning. I recommend that those with allergies place their order through a manager, and have the manager double-check with the kitchen that they read the order correctly.
I haven't even been here yet, but I already love them due to their commitment to safe gluten-free food for those with Celiac and other severe medical responses to gluten. I'll update this review after I eat there this weekend
So, as a person with Celiac, when I found this place, I was so excited. I have been going there for quite a bit of time. Sometimes, twice a week. Sadly, I will not continue going there or recommending it. When I come into a restaurant, which is very rare because of my Celiac, I don't want politics or a political agenda to hit me in the face. Today, there is a flag hanging behind the welcome desk that I do not believe in, and I am sure others would say the same. I know everyone is welcome to their own opinion, but I wonder if they would hang an American Flag or a Christian Flag as quickly behind their welcome desk? Like professional sports, restaurants should not use their restaurant as a political platform. It actually made me sad that one of the only places I can eat, is no longer a choice.
As someone with Celiac Disease, I was floored that the fried chicken can be completely gluten free. The servers are knowledgeable and happy to accommodate with gluten free needs. Food was incredibly fresh and delicious. There are so several sides and appetizers that are also gluten free. There are a gluten free option for dessert too! I will be back for the food and the amazing service! Highly recommend!

The gluten-free cheeseburger was delicious! Although the French fries are not gluten-free, I opted for a side salad instead. Overall, it was a very satisfying meal.
Went to Seasons 52 for a work dinner and was very impressed with the service our waitress Dominque provided. I have a gluten restriction and when the company ordered apps, I asked if one was GF. She checked for me and explained it wasn't but went above and beyond by bringing me out some gluten free bread to munch on. Which by the way was delicious. She then proceeded to bring out a GF menu for me and when it came time for dessert, she educated me on what my options were. Having food restrictions can sometimes make eating out less enjoyable however Dominque's service made my experience a breeze.

Absolutely amazing! The staff were very friendly, accommodating and careful with my Celiac / gluten intolerance, and the food was delicious. I attached a photo of my Rainbow Trout with chimichurri (I wrote "FISH" with my rice, which was an excellent addition to the meal)
The chicken tender meal was over cooked and seemed like it came out of a frozen bag! I got a plate of tail end fries and the waitress forgot my cup of chili. Thankful now! The double smash burger was dripping wet in grease if you like that kind of thing YUK! The gluten free bun was dry and just fell apart. Now I understand why nobody was in the place. First and last time here!
Great restaurant close to downtown. The service is great and the servers are knowledgeable about the menu and wine. They always have a vegan and gluten free entree.
When you first sit down you get a small glass of champagne which is a nice touch.
On our last visit we got the smoked carrots and they were shockingly good. The carrot soup was excellent and then for entrees I got long trumpet mushrooms and my wife got the Sacchetoni en Brodo. She said hers was good.
The peanut parfait is amazing and a must get to finish the meal.
It is on the pricier side but it is with it in my opinion.

Extra thick cut, 98% fat free, and cured well. Best of all, it's gluten free for a person with celiac disease like me. What am I talking about? It's Kirkland's Signature Premium Extra Thick Steak Strips, of course! You can't go wrong with this food package for a car trip to a city like Indianapolis for a convention you've been looking forward to attending for over six years.
It especially hits the spot after you've been waiting over 3 hours for food at a restaurant that, once delivered, wasn't cooked properly and didn't match your order nor met your dietary restrictions that you asked about (and which was never answered by staff). But don't worry, Kirkland's Steak Strips won't put you in the hospital - they're already cooked, ready and safe to eat. Kirkland's Steak Strips are so good even at 10pm, after a long evening of waiting for an order that actually got cancelled by an inept Liquid Death-chugging manager after yourself and your friends expressed concerns over your wait countless times, being told again and again that it would just be 5 more minutes until your food arrived.
But you know what you don't have to wait for? Kirkland's Steak Strips. They're always ready for you, sealed in that snazzy black bag and packed with a blast of flavorful protein. Costco is there for those who care about what they eat and want to have a good time chowing down. For everyone else - especially in Indianapolis - there's Punch Bowl Social, where you can go to play a tournament of Exploding Kittens at your table and eat... well, as it turned out for me, absolutely nothing!
Delicious food, wonderful service, and comfortable atmosphere. I will be coming back for sure. I had a steak, salad, and baked potato, all of which were delicious. If you need to eat gluten free, be sure to ask for no croutons on your salad.
I'm from out of the area. We came in for a wedding so there were daily obligations. I'm always gun shy with restaurants in general, so especially so with fast food because I have mild celiac's and other food sensitivities. I was blown away by this late night take out spot. I got a gluten free bun for my daughter's cheeseburger and I am still (2 weeks later) grateful for the salad I got that night. Not to mention the stellar ice cream. It was real ice cream! Not like the frozen vegetable oil foam you get at other fast food restaurants. I almost polished off the whole pint my daughter insisted she'd share with me, then refused when the time came. Hahaha. Kids.
Mesh is yet another Cunningham restaurant with excellent food, service, and ambiance. Had the coravina and peanut butter pie, both of which were exquisite. The coravina was a delightful blend of curry, pineapple, and coconut flavors balanced with savory and perfectly fried rice and roasted carrots. The peanut butter pie also was delicious, and the heavy flavor of the peanut butter was well balanced with cream. I also appreciate their range of gluten-free , vegetarian, and vegan options. Will definitely be coming here again!
It was Thanksgiving night when my husband and myself met some friends for dinner. I am gluten free and have a sensitive stomach so finding good breakfast food can be quite challenging at times. I got scrambled eggs which were heavenly! My husband got their dulce de leche pancakes and said they were very tasty! Our friend got berry pancakes with eggs and hashbrowns and bacon. His wife got the grand slam breakfast combo, pancakes, scrambled eggs with cheese, bacon and hashbrowns. They both really enjoyed their food. Our server was busy but made sure to check on us several times. The staff seemed to be working quickly but effectively. I really enjoyed my visit and can't wait to go back!
They have gluten free muffins, turkey bacon, and eggs. The waitress has been there for 20+ yrs, excellent. 🤗..losing benefits?
I heard they were recently sold, not sure what to expect..seeing new people, no longer offering Denny punch cards.😥
Decent experience. Went for lunch and seemed like most of the crowd were seniors. No problem with that, just surprised me. Food was decent, but a little challenging to eat gluten free. But they’ll help you figure it out. You just have limited options.
I require a gluten free bun on my sandwich as I'm celiac, so I appreciate the caution that they convey on cook orders and customer receipt. Even the employee that brings out the order to the car rereads the order back to you even though you are assigned a identity sticker they put on your driver's side mirror.
Food was excellent. Would have given 5 stars for service for waitress but host that sat us was a bit rude. My wife has celiac had she did not have any reaction after choosing allergy friendly items. She said best shrimp she's had in indy- doesn't compare to Gulf Coast fare. I had best ribeye in awhile. They really haven't raised prices a lot compared to elsewhere. They were already a little high to begin with. If they had proportionately raised prices according to inflation it would be too expensive. Really enjoyed our dinner.
We were in town to have dinner with daughter and her husband and their two high school children before we went to hear Dr. Tyson talk. The food was tasty the service was what made the evening so special. Took care of our people with gluten issues with the minimum of fanfare. It was the perfect place to have a meal with 3 generations in attendance. We had fun and everyone got their hearts desire to eat. Thank you all for making our meal together memorable.
Wish there were more gluten-free options. It would be easy with the tacos to offer a corn tortilla. Heck, regular customers might prefer it too!

If healthy, gluten-free food options are important to you, then you will want to try Flower child. On my first visit, I found the menu to be confusing, but the staff was incredibly helpful in explaining how to order. Portions are a good size, and the items are very flavorful. I haven't found anything there to disappoint me yet. Flower Child is located in a high traffic area, but parking is very accommodating, and there was no issue finding a seat. Give it a try, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised!
Never knew this place was here. Great food! Gluten free items were not marked on menu but servers are well trained. They have gluten free flours but it's a shared frier. They do have gluten free buns though. I'll DEFINITELY go back (also try the chili potato skins!)

My husband and I dined here for dinner and will definitely be back! First off, our waiter was so nice and attentive and communicated with us so well throughout the meal, on how much time it would be, etc. We started with the Gluten (bread) plate and Brussels and Burrata (which comes served over polenta), and hands down the brussels are the best appetizer I've ever had. Then, I had the flat iron which was cooked perfectly and had tons of flavor. My husband had the Short Rib Spacatelli which was also incredible and had plenty of meat with handmade pasta. We finished with the chocolate pot de creme and there wasn't a drop left, it was so delicious. Definitely a great experience all around!
