If you have celiac disease or any food allergies, don’t come here! I visited for lunch and ordered the gluten free shady sticks and the crispy cauliflower tacos with a gluten free tortilla. The waitress didn't inform me that there was a breading on the cauliflower and I probably should have asked but I thought it was fine because the menu didn’t say it was breaded :( We waited for a really long time for our drinks and then once we ordered and received the drinks, she didn’t come back to check on us or refill drinks until after we received our appetizers and food from a different waitress. Our waters were never refilled and both of my friends had their orders messed up. One got the wrong side and the other got bacon in their burger when they asked for no bacon. The waitress didn’t write any of our order down when she took it and she clearly needed to. My friend also got the wrong mule. This was a Tuesday afternoon so there were hardly any people in the restaurant and she only had one other table. I ended up eating a taco before I realized the cauliflower was breaded and when I asked if it was gluten free she said no. I had her just take it back and didn’t order anything else because I knew I was about to get really sick since I have celiac disease. Although I should’ve been more diligent when ordering, it doesn’t excuse the service we received. The servers should be more thorough and clarify when guests are ordering all gluten free menu items.

Dined here for the gluten free options. The wait staff shared what was gluten free and I believe it was gluten free. We still got sick from cross contamination. It's too bad really as the food was delicious.

Pittsburgh friends turned us on to Paris 66 Bistro while visiting, and the four of us went for dinner. And it's a gem. The food was excellent. There were accommodations for my husband's gluten allergy. There's something for nearly everyone, including vegetarian and gluten-free options or adaptations. (There will likely be off-menu specials, too.) We enjoyed a full dinner, appetizers, wine, and dessert. Meal prices align with better restaurants with items at various price points. We received full attention from our servers without it feeling overbearing. The atmosphere is lovely. We felt like we were in France and even got to practice a little French with the owner, who is French (though French isn't needed). There is a parking garage near, beside/behind the restaurant, and street parking. As a closing note, we're a gay couple who felt welcome. I highly recommend considering Paris 66 Bistro.

Thai burrito with shrimp was great. All but one item on the menu can be prepared gluten free. All of the staff was proactive and well informed.

This is my favorite cafe in Pittsburgh!! The atmosphere is unbeatable, the music is always great, Kim and Al and the rest of the folks who work there are absolutely lovely, and the coffee is top notch. The vegan/gluten free snacks are also to die for. 12/10!

It's a big, tasty yes. Everything was delicious, they also have good gluten free knowledge. We tried the calamri&rock shrimp, swordfish, pork chop, ravioli, Crème Brûlée, cake and ice cream (all desserts). Happy with every choice, amazing Crème Brûlée won the dessert match!
