Always visit a few times a week when we are on the island. Always knowledgeable and the entire family enjoys while keeping our family member safe.

Great place for a quick breakfast! Crepes were fresh and delicious! Gluten free (Yay) buckwheat! Super friendly staff and clean.

Brooks and Christine Waddle

This is one of the best gluten-free bakeries we’ve ever gone to. The donuts, bundt cake, and cupcakes are all awesome. My son said 10 stars if it were possible. We got cinnamon rolls to take home too. Can’t wait to try them

Absolutely great for gluten free food. Lots of options on the menu and my food came out marked with an allergy flag. I got the portobello mushroom sandwich and sweet potato fries. Both were excellent. However I am knocking off one star due to the fact the GF buns are awful. The texture isn't good and it started falling apart within a few bites. Switch to a better GF bun and this place would be 5 star. Definitely sit outside if you can as the atmosphere is entertaining (we had a cellist set up and play during our dinner!) Would eat here again without hesitation.

First visit to Southern Olive Oil Company but won't be our last. Clara was so informative about the olive oils and balsamic vinegars. We bought several so we can make homemade salad dressing and try out some new recipes with chicken, fish, & vegetables. They also have a lot of local products and if you are gluten free, this is your place! It also has a bakery & wine bar. A lot of options!

If you are gluten free and vegan (or one or the other) this place is phenomenal. I got the chicken and waffles and the flavors were spot on! Their pimento is delicious here too. The servings are quite large, so you will definitely have leftovers if you don't spilt your meal.

David Liberto

Awesome place. Especially for celiacs. A little pricey—but the food was worth it. Excellent customer service. Great tasting and fresh food. Will come again. Recommend it. (Sad we didn’t do the karaoke.)

My Husband is Gluten Free and this came up on the internet. Was perfect opens at 5.00pm and after walking miles around this glorious town we were ready for an early supper. Welcome excellent, lovely table in the window. Small menu but well thought out. We both had the Salmon bowl. Oh my the tastes exploded on your tongue. Waitress excellent. This restaurant is excellent.

Heather Foster

Amazing gluten free buns, burgers and chicken straps all delicious. Whole family loved! Highly recommend.

Cara M

Gluten free paradise! Totally celiac safe crepes and 100% delicious! I wish I could take this whole restaurant home with me. You should eat here!

kenzie crissman

Highly recommend! The manager personally takes allergy orders and notes them on a large red slip, making sure they’re handled with care. There are so many gluten-free options available, way more than you’d typically find at most places. And did not get sick. These are the (small) nachos with grilled chicken. Super yummy.

Tracy Johnson

As someone with Celiac Disease, eating out is VERY limited! I am grateful for Grill Marks. Been to Greenville and Columbia multiple times over the past decade. I have never had an issue with gluten cross-contamination here! I appreciate the fries, etc are also dedicated gluten free. My burger is always cooked as ordered. For the price, the value of food quality and service level are completely on par. I will continue to return and if I have a singular experience below the norm, I will still give them another shot!

Destine Spells

Absolutely amazing, everything taste good. I got a variety of things because I do not live there but I am certainly glad I did. If I could order online I would an have it right to my door all the time ! All the gluten free items are yummyyyy

Winnberg Family

We specifically ordered a gluten free Mediterranean pizza, which was clearly labeled on the menu. Our server let us know that he would also let the kitchen know. My daughter was extremely sick for over 4 hours after her meal, and it took hours beyond that to fully recover. I called and spoke with the owner who told me very matter of factly that it was the gyro meat on the pizza - that it needs a binder. No idea why it’s on the gf menu. Complete negligence.

Kate MacDonald

I love Creole dishes and rarely get to enjoy them since being gluten free due to health reasons. We found Madisons on the gluten free app and are so grateful we did! Madison’s has a very expansive menu of gluten free options including their breaded items (hello crab cakes!). We had a fabulous meal with both the service and food quality being top notch. Madison’s brought so much joy back to dining and was a highlight of our trip to the Beaufort area. Highly recommend!

Becky Huss

I called to place a take out order. I was told that they did not take orders over the phone and was instructed to use ChowNow app. When looking on the app, I did not see Gluten Free pancakes option. Asking asking the employee on the phone where to locate it on the app and letting her know I was not seeing the same thing she saw on the app, she hung up on me. When I tried to call back they would not answer. I have eaten at this location while in town at least 2-3 times a year for over the last 10 years. I've never had an issue. If a customer is having difficulty with the technology that the restaurant insist on the customer using, i would hope that hanging up on that customer is not the service they would continue to provide. So I ended up ordering at another breakfast restaurant and service there was excellent.

Amalia Andujar

I have Celiac disease. Best gluten free pizza I have ever had. 👏👏

Kyle Holmes

An all around spectacular meal. First the service was first class from the greeting and seating to the table service. Every single dish was fantastic but the Beef Carpaccio and BBQ Tuna really stood out. Great selection of Gluten Free options on the menu, very accommodating. Thank you for the wonderful visit, can't wait to return.

Jeanette Nichols

The gluten free pancake was delicious. Very friendly & prompt service.

Lindsy Brunhouse

I love that the flavors continually change, that it's locally made, and they have so many gluten-free and dairy-free options! I have not found any dairy-free ice cream at a parlor that is better than this!

Bonnie Hahn

As someone with celiac disease i love going somewhere where I can enjoy a good meal with family and friends

Jordan

Food is excellent with great gluten free options as well - great variety in coffee and really friendly staff. A must stop for any one!

David Jacobson

Sumptuous desserts (including many gluten-free options, marked with hearts in the display case) and coffee served in a relaxed cafe. Open late. We frequently enjoy a 10pm or 11pm dessert at Old Europe after a performance at the Peace Center.

Out late on a late night date w the hubs in his hometown and looking to NOSH!! This place was recommended by our rickshaw driver strolling down King street. This place is SUPER CUTE!! We actually had passed by it and didn’t even notice!! 😵‍💫 Accross from the Apple Store; with kitschy-modern vibes we loved it as soon as we walked in! 90s tunes wash over us as we enter and we are taken back to simpler days; when we were young and without the cares of kids and adulting. Our server Katie greets us as we sit down at our cozy little booth - she is Super Cute and upbeat! We love her energy! And she knows her Sh*%#! She thoroughly explains how things work in her world, and we know exactly what to expect and respect how much she loves what she does! She educates us on the freshness of the E back bar ingredients? As well as that we should expect the highest of quality Ingredients in the tacos and such as well! We also love that these tacos are served street tacos style and explains that each will be 2-3 bites. This is very helpful in Gauging how many we should order! We decide to get a little of everything! The cucumber salad and sliced cucumbers came first. Then came the Korean Beef Bulgogi Bowl - The Baja fish tacos - in CA they are usually grilled. But here they are fried. I was skeptical but when I added the jalapeño sauce and took a bite MAN!! So lite and flaky!! Fish was tender and the batter was melt in your mouth! Not at All great! And not breast either! Katie explained later that it is a tempera rice batter and that it’s gluten free. Super lite and DELISH!! The addition of the slaw gives it just the right vinegar mayo kick as well YUM 🤤 The mushroom taco is very light and mild. Bits of mushroom; they tasted like shiitake or even just an umami mix including some king mushrooms even had a very mild and meaty texture and mild flavor. I added the rojo sauce for a bit of a kick. The given tortilla adding the perfect nuttiness. The crispy shrimp taco uses the same lite tempura batter. This batter has a little kick to it. Not sure if they add something else to the batter to make it slightly different than the fish but it’s slightly spicier. Which I Loved. We eat a lot of spicy foods and I loved this one. I ate this with the cucumber salad as well for more of a crunch factor. The pork belly taco had a bit of a crunchy pork skin bite to it, and the porky goodness that you can ONLY get from pork belly!!! This one was next level taco yumminess!!! We ate this one with the Happy Habanero sauce and let me tell you - NO. This one you hafta taste for yourself to believe!!! PORK BELLY. NEED I SAY MORE??? Now we had also ordered the Seared Ahi Tuna Taco but we had forgotten about it and the kitchen had also forgotten about it , so by the time they brought it out we were so stuffed we didn’t get to try it before my review. I’ll try to update this tho once I try it! It looked awesome, and I will include the picture! The only thing the hubs wasn’t too impressed with was the bulgogi bowl. The bees was sliced too thinly he said and was a bit dry. He expected more juiciness. Especially for bulgogi and I hafta agree on that - having had a LOT of bulgogi in my lifetime lol. I LOVED the kimchi and spinach in the bowl tho and helped him to polish those off. 😝 Oh!!! We also tried some agua fresca - the Berry Colada which was FANTASMIC I cannot say this enough. This drink tasted of fresh coconut water, blueberries and fresh squeezed grapefruit juice. Not sure if that’s the mix but that’s what it tasted like to me. It was so refreshing and didn’t make me feel light headed like fruit juice normally does. The hubs has a Tito’s n Grapefruit juice which he absolutely LOVED. We were really impressed with Bartaco! Late night nosh as its finest! And Thanks again Ms Katie!

They are the definition of happiness and service!! We stopped for coffee and smoothies. It was such a great, for once, to walk in a coffee shop and have a couple of yummy gluten free options. The GF BlackBerry lemon scone was delicious and so was my match. The staff was hustling, so efficient, nobody standing around starting at the ceiling and they were just so friendly and happy!!! We are from out of town, but this is how my new favorite spot when visiting Mount Pleasant SC

Becky Templeton

Great meal, excellent service and fair price. Everyone in our part of 6 LOVED their meals! 1 member is Gluten Free and said the stuffed cabbage with veggies and saurkraut was excellent and really appreciated on their extensive dessert menu there was a GF dessert :)

Chloe Daun

Stopped into beach hippie one of our favorite spots as locals. My fiance was reading the label of the gluten free donuts when an older lady from behind the counter snapped at him for holding the donuts up and reading the label. He has celiac disease and reading ingredients are important to him. She then gave him a label to read and he said thank you and made a comment that if you don’t want anyone to pick the donuts up to read the label to put the label on top of the container or on the counter. She then grabbed the donuts smacked a label on top of the container and slammed it down in front of him. He was just making an honest suggestion. That was no way to treat what used to be loyal customers.

DEDICATED FRYER!!! That should say enough for you to get over there! But, their bang bang shrimp (crispy gluten free tempura battered, fried in a dedicated fryer) was delicious! With a sweet Thai chili and spicy mayo drizzle. The fish tacos (gf battered, fried fish - or can be grilled) with a creamy slaw and corn tortillas served with crispy fry/chips were awesome! I had seen a review talking about lack of flavor - don’t listen to that. Could it use a pinch more salt? Sure. But it was incredibly flavorful, hot and so deliciously crispy, GF fried fish and shrimp! Wonderful experience! I recommend putting in a reservation to sit on the deck to make sure you get a spot outside!

Kate MacDonald

We were on a mission to try She Crab soup while visiting the Charleston area and found Halls! I am gluten free and we struggled to find any restaurants that had authentic GF She Crab soup. We ate at the bar as we were not up for a full meal. Our service was very attentive, the environment was great and the soup and drinks were top notch. If you are looking for high quality food and service and have any dietary restrictions I definitely recommend visiting Halls!

Venture Studio Arts

Absolutely Wonderful food with gluten-free options. Considerate of allergens and crossing proteins

Shawnette Graham

Great food. Beautiful spot. I just wish Charleston would catch on to more gluten friendly options

Second night in Charleston celebrating our tenth anniversary. Hanks definitely met the high expectations we had of good seafood in Charleston! I ordered the flounder and the flavor was out of this world! My husband ordered the oysters casino as an appetizer which were a “ decadent delight” as he described them. For his entree he ordered the grouper which was a tender but meaty and delicious entree! Our server, Drew, was very attentive and pleasant. There was a separate gluten free menu with many options. Both of our main entrees were GF.

Stopped in on Sunday on the way home from camping. We ordered 6 gluten free donuts to go. The box seriously was so heavy which I should have thought something was off from that. The donuts were cold and were completely dense and rock hard. They crumbled like sand. Worse gf donuts I’ve ever experienced. We’ve been to a different location and they were good so I’m not sure what went wrong here.

Danielle Strawser

Busy place but was well worth the wait and great gluten free choices

Lauren Drakulic

A wonderful breakfast experience! The gluten free French toast was delicious!! All food was great. Very accommodating to GF, will be back.

Sarah Mikowski

Joe was great! We have a gluten allergy and he worked with us and was knowledgeable about the process!

Tootsie Roll Patrol

Doughnuts were so tasty. This is doughnuts made while you wait! Toppings are super clever and creative. This is a perfect morning breakfast stop or an anytime-I-need-a-doughnut stop. They also have gluten free doughnuts for you poor souls who can't eat the good stuff.

Ashley Peeples

We looked up gluten-free restaurants in the area. This is the first one that popped up. I would say the food was good. Service took a while since it’s a small indoor only restaurant.

Andrea Moeller

This place is so special. I love that there are gluten free options in addition to regular. Something for everyone! Each time we try new things, and we're never disappointed! So yummy!!!

laura bailey

I got a breakfast sandwich to go with gluten free bread. I made it clear it wasn’t severe and just needed the product gluten free. My brother who ordered with me received his pancakes within 10 minutes. 25 minutes later I checked up on my order and when the woman said she would check up on it she instead went to eat a bite of her snack and then came back and said “they’re working on it”. After waiting for a total of 35 minutes they said they had accidentally put the sausage in the fryer and asked me if that was okay in which I said it’s fine. I get home to eat my breakfast to find all that they put on my sandwich was the egg. I paid almost $20 for a Diet Coke, two pieces of bread and an egg. Not to mention the $9 entrance fee to get onto the grounds. To add no one even apologized about the wait.

Elliott Roberts

GLUTEN FREE WAFFLES!!! They are delicious, light and fluffy. We had the banana peanut butter and prosciutto which was great to swap with my wife, sweet and savory. We will be back for sure!!

Antonio Gutiérrez

We enjoyed the spectacular food of this restaurant today. Everything on the menu is original and handmade, prepared with love and quality ingredients, With vegan and gluten-free options. We tried the hout bay salmon and the harbour road shrimp and it has been a great surprise. An explosion of delicious flavors. The atmosphere in the place is very pleasant and quiet, with a decoration that relaxes body and mind. The people who attended us made us feel at home. Overall, a great experience. A must try.

Courtney Sprayberry

Love this place! And a haven for Gluten Free folks, as they have dedicated fryers for the empanadas. The salsas are incredible and they’re always so friendly. 5 stars all around!

First time to Trio. The food was delicious, and the service was great. Lots of gluten-free and vegetarian options. Definitely will be back regularly.

Michele Pridgen

First time having lunch here and having a gluten free menu option and the waiters knowledge of celiac disease was reassuring. Looking forward to my next visit! Mahi mahi and shrimp were delicious🤤

Jodi Stum

We love stopping at Crazy Mason when we visit Myrtle Beach. I have Celiac and they even offer Gluten Free options. They do have Dairy Free as well. We took a friend a long with us last night to experience what this place is all about. Max, our server was very pleasant and answered any questions we had. Our friend said that she will definitely need to return. Keep up the good work!

Michael

The Pineapple Hut is a great little food truck in Folly Beach that serves up pineapple-flavored dole whip (as well as other flavors) in creative ways! You can even get your dole whip served in a pineapple - check people’s pictures in their reviews!! It’s dairy-free, gluten-free, low-cholesterol, vegan, and it still tastes great!! This means it’s actually very low-calorie, healthy, and a perfect place to take your kids without feeling the guilt of giving them an unhealthy dessert. It’s right off the main road, very reasonably-priced, and totally worth your time. Check this place out next time you’re in Folly Beach!!

Leila Airhart

Best burgers! Gluten free buns!
