We had a great meal at the Engine Room. It was a low key Sunday evening for us. I loved my burger and the gluten free (gf) bun was great. My partner got the fish and chips and said they were delicious too.

Patrick Mallon

Service and menu are exceptional. Gluten free options are plentiful. Delicious entrees and appetizers. Our family looks forward to celebrating many occasions at Elizabeth's.

Olga Rodland

Great gluten free options! Suitable for celiacs!

Gluten free options are excellent.

Barbara O'Marra

Our waiter was Stanley. He was friendly, attentive and polite. As always our food was so good and we safely ate gluten free!

Jewel Okwuosa

I love this place! Exceptional gluten free pizza. I love that the gluten free pizza isn’t too small. It’s a good size to share or greedily eat yourself as well. I love that I can have any pizza on the menu and make it gluten free. The industrial design with a touch of elegance is a great addition to the ambiance. Waiters are professional and provide good service

Perrin Brown

Dedicated fryer and very attentive staff for any and all dietary needs

Kevin

First time they made food which I clearly instructed I am allergic to. Then manager said he'd personally make sure next sandwich was correct. Burger came out with wrong toppings again. No gluten at least. But the burger was so raw that I feel nauseous from taking a few bites of it. Absolutely disgusting

Bill Jameson

The gluten free options have us coming back all the time. Thank you.

Sofia Mariona-Gonzalez

This is the best gluten free pasta I've ever had !! I'm almost afraid it's too good to be true 😅

Claire Robertson

Beautiful place! Really good food including vegan options, gluten-free options, and mocktails. Charming atmosphere and extremely friendly staff.

Enjoyed a nice Valentine’s Day dinner with my Valentine here. Nice atmosphere with a few pretty floral additions and also had a rose for each couple as a parting gift. Very busy with a bit of a line when we were heading out - was happy to have made a reservation on OpenTable. Our server, Jess, was awesome. Super nice with a sense of humor to deftly counter my witty commentary. Since both Sauvignon Blancs in the glass were from New Zealand I wasn’t sure which to choose and Jess was kind enough to bring a taste of each. As we were catching up over a delicious IIPA and a glass of wine from the rather large list (but limited availability for glasses vs bottles), we noticed the music was quite loud - not sure if valentines related or typical. We started with the Farm to Table board which was yummy but should have been called Brussels Sprouts with lots (and lots) of fig jam and a hint of prosciutto. Only a couple thin slices under a mound of fried sprouts. Sprouts were voluminous and tasty but little overdone IMHO. Also needed more salt, pistachios, and burrata. For our mains, we had the Skillet Roasted Salmon and the Nachos. Salmon was very tasty. We ordered medium rare and it was definitely more cooked through. Nice sweetness in the sauce that complimented the unctuousness of the salmon. Could have used a touch more acid and more of the crunch from the pistachios. Toothsome risotto that was very squashy (in a good way)! Nachos were huge with a nice layer of melted cheese and a delicious cheese sauce in addition to the chicken. Definitely a good amount of spice - not sure if in the sauce or only from the peppers. Only criticism was the Arugula. I loves me some peppery lettuce, but just felt like an odd addition on Nachos. Actually, another complaint - Top layer was awesome but you’re left with a pile of baked naked chips underneath. Overall - great atmosphere and good food. Tons of Gluten Free options with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Thumbs up!

I met a friend here for lunch and hadn't been in so long. I forgot how amazing their food is. I got the fried chicken meal and it was to die for. Being gluten sensitive, they are able to accommodate that easily, and have separate fryers. Their food is like southern comfort food. Highly recommend. Food is better than most of the restaurants in West Hartford Center.

We ordered Hawaiian pizza and did not expect it to have pesto, which i usually love, but Sorella's pesto ruined it for the other pesto I've ever had.. like this is how pesto is SUPPOSE to taste like! Their tiramisu also!!! It melted in my mouth.. every single bite was AMAZING!!! And best of all, was my son's pizza. Vegan gluten-free White pizza. He didn't even want a plate! He insisted on eating out of the box! I had a taste of his crust because I thought it looked a bit burnt. Omg! It was delicious.. I'm so happy to find this restaurant and can't wait to try the rest of the menu. Very AUTHENTIC!!!

I have a severe gluten allergy. Two separate servers went through the menu and told me what I could eat, how things were prepped in the back and what I could substitute. They were very knowledgeable. I enjoyed foods I rarely eat as someone with a severe gluten allergy - they subbed baked corn chips on the nachos, corn tortillas for the enchiladas and gave me baked chips with my salsa. They told me everything for an allergy and celiac gets given a big card so everyone is very careful in the back. I felt comfortable ordering and eating here. Great job Sol Toro!

Always a great time! Their food is always excellent. I love their seasonal menus and their gluten free options. I also have small children. They love the food as well.

Michele Bassett

The service can be a tad slow at times, but the food is excellent with amazing gluten-free options.

Lucyna Przywara

The food was so delish!!!. They have a huge menu and were able to cater to my gluten and dairy allergy. The waitress was one of the best I’ve ever had. The restaurant doesn’t look like a five star place but the food is bangin. Me and my husband were really impressed!

Dorothy Boone

Overall, it was a fantastic evening! The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our gluten-free guest. The atmosphere was lively and added to the enjoyment. While the dipping sauces were not traditional, they were still delicious. The chef's performance was outstanding.

Valerie Frost

Our waiter was very knowledgeable about gluten free options and went out of his way for us. I am very grateful for the extra care for our food.

Maureen Palmer-Lavoie

My first time eating here. Overall a great experience. Burger was awesome! They have a separate gluten free menu, so you don't have to wonder what you can have. The kitchen is not GF, so even though they say they take precautions, there's likely cross contamination. The GF bun for my burger was actually really good. They have a pretty good selection of drinks, I had an espresso martini, it was a little pricy, but it was a nice date night out with the hubby.

Robert Christian

Nice spot close to the airport. I was in town and looked up local restaurants in the area. Roberto’s was one. Drink selection is great and Gluten Free options. I had the chicken pacatta which the chicken was tough to cut, however the mash potatoes were delicious with the cappers. Food was ok. The chili was a must have. I should’ve gotten a bowl instead of the cup.

Zoey Bozarjian

I had a wonderful experience at Market Place last night! I have celiac and the bartender Dylan made sure all of my food and drinks were safe! I also ordered a cosmopolitan and it was amazing. Best restaurant and best bartender in town!

PAUL HILL

First time visit over the weekend. A very enjoyable evening for 4(2 couples). Very spacious with plenty of seating. Choice of tables, booths, high tables and very large bar. It you're lucky enough to get the server Krystle(K no A) you will definitely enjoy your evening. She explained ordering process and suggested gluten free items on the menu. The food also didn't disappoint. I highly recommend this establishment.

Ann Wetzel

What a fun place. Reminiscent of Reading Terminal Market with an assortment of restaurant stalls. Large picnic style tables run down the middle. Fun music playing on the speakers. Had a fantastic meal at Flor Do Mar, delicious Brazilian food 100% gluten free. Loved it!

Carrie

Amazing experience. Never have I seen an Italian restaurant with so many gluten free options.

Mya Unknown

The food was amazing with lots of gluten-free options.

Doug Eberle

Inventful menu, EXCELLENT staff, and an overall comfortable atmosphere. Attentive to celiac needs.

Kelly Hennessey

My family recently held my 50TH birthday here. We had 16 people. When I tell you the service was impeccable! It was, and the food was beyond amazing. My plate was still warm when I had to pick it up to package my leftovers. I had 3 meals out of it. Would like to see more gluten-free/dairy free options in the future.

gabrielle rodrigue

red rock is one of my favorite places to go. before finding out i was allergic to gluten and dairy i went there multiple times a week for my lunch or dinner. their chicken cutlet is to die for. get a grinder and you’ll be a very happy person. i am incredibly grateful that i can still go there because they have a good variety of gluten free and dairy free options. you go because you’re hungry but you stay, and keep coming back, because you become a part of the family there.

Katherine Farnham

a hidden gem me and my bf discovered during covid.our go to for every special occasion since 2021! while take out is good highly recommend eating in for best experience!! as an avid pasta ethusiac who is hard to please would highly recommend the bolognese sauce, tiny meatballs, penne alla vodka sauce (not spicy) love their calamari as well for an appetizer. best gluten free pasta too!! can’t even tell. bf loves his cavatelli marco pollo as well :)

Unfortunately after getting sick twice, we went back with my Nima sensor and we have tested several of their items labeled gluten free with our Nima Sensor and all the foods we ordered have come back positive for gluten. We were assured by the waiter that the products themselves were gluten free so there must be cross contamination happening somewhere in the kitchen. They were very understanding of us sending the food back but I wouldn't recommend this restaurant for someone with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease.

Lucas

Seemed like a nice place, but I am not sure what people are talking about when they say they have allergy friendly options. I asked the barista if they have anything gluten free and the answer was no. There was nothing allergy friendly to purchase. Edit: In response to the owner saying they have options. That's great, but the menu has no symbols or mentions of it and the staff specifically told me they had no gluten free options on the menu when I asked if they could do anything for me. I'm used to asking for alterations but I was just told "No, sorry" when asking "do you have anything on the menu that is gluten free?" Sounds like a training issue.

This is the best place to eat delicious gluten free food and bring your furry friend! We always enjoy the service, atmosphere, and food here. One of our favorites in Old Wethersfield. Highly recommend!!

Elizabeth Viau

Went for a birthday. My adult daughter loved the endless sushi boat. The gluten free options were minimal for me. I asked about the veggies included with the fried rice and was told there were asian vegetables in it. I ordered it with chicken and basically it's just a pile of rice with peas and a couple small pcs of grilled chicken. My husband got the general tso chicken (not GF) and he said it was just okay and not very filling. I told them we had a birthday but was not told of anything special they did for that. When I went to the restroom I saw a giant dragon and asked what it was for and they said birthdays. I asked for it, paid $25 for the dragon, a sign, and the dessert, but they said they don't sing. Okay it's a good photo op, but they come over with the sign, say her name, no dragon, so I had to asked the waitress, where is the dragon. So she went and got it a few minutes later. It was underwhelming at that point. The waitress was nice and attentive, it was busy on a Thursday night. It was just okay, I wouldn't go back because I don't eat sushi and that seemed like the only thing that anyone raved about in our group of 4.

Rose W.

Our waitress Brianna was superb. She was super friendly, accommodating to my gluten allergy. Great experience. Food was on par. Will definitely be back!

dana bevenuti

The food was really good. I didn't get sick from the gluten-free stuff this is my second time in I really like the atmosphere in here.

The food was amazing and had great gluten free options.

Amanda Pompa

Website helped me figure out best gluten free options and the wait staff was excellent at making sure/double checking for me to be sure what I saw was accurate. Everything was delicious.

Katharine H

This thai food is absolutely delicious! Beautiful restaurant and atmosphere. Also many gluten free options to choose from.

Nicki Chadwick

We stopped in during a weekend trip to Mystic, it was the best food and drinks we had while in town, as well as fantastic service. Cienna, our server was so awesome, hospitable, knowledgeable of nearby fun and of her menu, and skilled in her craft. The margaritas were the best in Mystic (and trust me, I tried most of them!) and the food was delicious. I am gluten free and they made sure to be careful with my food and I left without even a stomachache.

J Malo

Fantastic gluten-free options. The fish and chips was excellent. The head chef brought my meal down personally so that he could ensure I got the right thing. The older woman at the hostess station was a little rude and condescending but it didn't sour the overall experience

Chris

This was a great stop on the way home for lunch. Our child has Celiac and this restaurant has some good gluten free options. Walking in and smelling the wood burning in the stove set a good tone. The inside was beautiful with rustic touches. Our service was very good thanks to Ramone. The food was delicious. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone in the area looking for a good meal or needing to eat gluten free with confidence.

kathybitterlimurphy

We really enjoyed Trumbull Kitchen. I feel much better eating gluten free and they have many choices for me. Thursday nights are half price bottles of wine… I ordered a simple salad with grilled shrimp and the cauliflower appetizer, FRESH, REASONABLY PRICEE & DELICIOUS!

scott carter

100% recommend this spot. We were fans of Joey Cs in Milford before it closed. Go on Wednesday for $20 lobster roll! Great location hidden behind a warehouse club, but all you see once you enter is he great river and marina views. One of our favorite spots. Great gluten free options as well.

Mike Ruef

The tour/tasting lasts about 20 minutes, was informative and interesting, and included 10 small tasting samples that gave me a little buzz! Tour also includes 1 cocktail which can be enjoyed in the cozy bar area, a cute outdoor patio, or refurbished warehouse area that reminded me of a southern plantation mansion. The vodka and liquors are gluten free and dairy free. They sell snacks (soft pretzels, chips and salsa, bread and butter, gelato) but you can also bring your own food. Plenty of free off street parking. Highly recommend!
