This place is amazing! Haven’t had anything bad but the bbq burger was extra good and you’ve got to have the fried Oreos.

El barrio is one of Birminghams restaurants. You can expect to wait on friday and saturday evenings due to the high demand for delicious food at a reasonable price. The servers work harmoniously during busy times and have a streamlined process so that you have the best dining experience. They are gracious about accommodating dietary needs and restrictions which is so welcome due to the Birmingham food scene largely lacking that. The only things that could make them better is gluten free churros on the menu. Try the queso!

I’m from New York and on the way to the airport, I wanted to find a nice brunch spot somewhere near. I saw the reviews and pictures of this place and thought it would be a great place to try. The moment I come in, I already love the vibe of this place. Not only that but our server was very nice and friendly. We got the Farm Breakfast, Smash Burger, and the Royale Sandwich as our mains, along with the gluten-free blueberry muffin. And let me tell you they were absolutely delicious!! We also ordered a Matcha Latte with oat milk and the Golden Monkey Latte, and the drinks were phenomenal. They were so concentrated and the flavours were so rich, it made me love Matcha. Overall as a person who just was looking for something light to eat on the way back home, this was amazing! Anyone near this area must try this place out! I definitely recommend getting the dishes we got but if you wanna try something else I’m probably sure it won’t disappoint. If I am ever back in town I will definitely be coming back!

Billie Jo was an excellent my server and our breakfast was very good. I have celiac and must eat gluten free so I love knowing this is a place I can go and not have to worry about a reaction.

My daughter has Celiac Disease and we told our waiter that she had to have only gluten free food. We even asked if the fries were fried in a separate fryer from the breaded chicken, and he assured us that the fries were fried separately. He led us to believe that he notated the order to make sure no gluten contact could happen. She was up all night sick throwing up, so she clearly was fed gluten. The bill was $93.12 for three people, and wasn’t even that good. It is very disheartening to pay almost $100 for food then be up all night throwing up. I will definitely never return to another Cheesecake Factory and definitely encourage anyone with Celiac Disease never trust eating at one.

This is one of my favorite spots in B'ham. As someone who's gluten free, I love the wings and Buffalo cauliflower bites. Service could be better, but it's definitely not a deterrent. You can park across the street at Avondale Park. The atmosphere is laid back and enjoyable.

I have been a loyal Red Cat customer for many years. My wife who is gluten-free has always loved the pumpkin chocolate chip muffins. Recently those gluten-free muffins have been reduced to a third of the original size that they were a month ago. But the price is the same. This is shrink-flation at its most ridiculous level. This is not fair to any of your customers, you could at least try to reduce the price a little bit.

Disclaimer: I am gluten free, but not celiac, and do not have immediate reactions to gluten exposure. I am giving my experience based on taste and service. As always, how "safe" the food is for other gluten free people may vary depending on your sensitivity. I love eating here. The staff is always so friendly and try to help even if things (like issues with the app) are outside of their control. If anything has ever been amiss, they are always eager to fix the situation. I go here for gluten free pizzas and some of the best gluten free bread buns I've ever had. Always tastes super fresh, and the bread doesn't fall apart immediately like other gf bread buns. They have also been knowledgeable about things when I've asked them about menu items being gluten free. I also like that it's not outrageous to make an item gluten free here, so I'm not feeling bad about having to pay way more. Environment-wise, I always ordered togo, so I'm not sure how clean or nice the restaurant itself is to eat in, but food-wise my experience has been 10/10. Pictured: Turkey Bacon Club on gluten free bun. So good!

It was our first time going here and the staff was very helpful and explained the menu wonderfully. Gluten free options! The host even advised against certain dishes that seemed like they were gluten free but weren't 💓 10/10 would go again! Food was delicious!!!

When I saw this place for the first time, I knew it would be special! The staff here treat everyone so kindly! One young host named Kelly brought us to our table, and I was shocked that she knew so much about the menu & gluten free options even though she wasn't a waiter! She even checked on us to make sure we liked what she recommended! We ordered a chopped chicken salad (gluten free) and the Rainbow trout! So good! All the unique flavors that they incorporate into their dishes blend so well together! We enjoyed being able to see into the kitchen!! Can't wait to come back!!

We have never been to this place and actually never heard of it. Saw it because I was there to visit another business. I am so glad we stumbled upon this gem of a restaurant. They are a heavy brunch geared eatery, and I love brunch. So many choices of items and the place was alive and vibrant. Our waitress ( I didn't recall her name) was amazing and on top of every need we had. We came in with a 4 top 3 adults and a kid and got out of there for less than 70$. To me that is a great deal considering the portion sizes and just the general ambiance of the place. We definitely recommend going and checking this place out, if not making it your full time brunch spot. I was also surprised at the vegan and gluten free options! You are missing out not trying at least once!!!

What a great experience! I stopped to pick up breakfast for my family and myself and because I found out that there was a gluten free option for my daughter-in-law I went inside to order to make sure I ordered correctly. The sweet lady taking the order was so sweet and very helpful but I was especially impressed with the young lady getting the items to place in the bag! Olivia watched the person making our order and immediately corrected mistakes made in touching the gluten free order with the same gloves used to make the regular items. The person in the kitchen must have been new and still didn’t quit grasp how important it is to keep gluten free items from contamination. Olivia to the rescue! She was on it and with patience and a smile!! Thank you Chick-fil-A 5 Points for a very tasty hot meal and a big thank you to Olivia for looking out for my daughter-in-law and helping your co-workers! Wendy Smith
