This place is exceptional! For a careful eater like myself, Tina made it so easy to substitute the gluten & dairy free preferences. The food was delicious. I had a phenomenal lunch.
The manager of this restaurant does a phenomenal job with customers. Their pizza is delicious and they offer great gluten-free crust. I’m a fan of the build-your-own salads. There are multiple options for just about anyone (including kids) and any diet (gluten free, vegan, keto, and many others). I frequent this restaurant often and love coming back.
For chain pizza it's one of my favorites. The pretzels are amazing and they have a really good gluten free option for my wife. Never disappointed at Tuscaloosa's mellow mushroom
Great option for those that are gluten-free and on a budget. Build-your own options are great, as well as the pre-made available items. Parking is tough, but there are options around the back. Not a great place for parties over 6 or 8.
SO SO GOOD!! My family all has a gluten allergy including my celiacs for some of us. The food was delicious! It would be nice if they had gf bread especially for those biscuits they bring out but everything we ate was very good! The waitress helped me figure out how to order from the kids menu since nothing was gf. Meat was all delicious. I got brisket, husband got smoked wings, one kid got smoked turkey and others got the bbq chicken.
Many options available gluten free. They said even more at dinner. They were very conscious and double checked my plate after bringing it. Food was great.
Very accommodating of my gluten allergy. Friendly staff. My wife and I both enjoyed our meals of salmon and filet mignon. And the creme brulee dessert was very yummy.
This is our second time going in the afternoon and there was no wait. This time the service was much better. I had the chips and queso for an appetizer and Hicks Chicken Philly and sweet potato fries for my main dish. The queso was not very warm so it did not stay melted for long. It had a yummy flavor though it was sticky. The sandwich was good, but the sweet potato fries were overdone which was disappointing. Even my husband who loves them said they weren't that good. I will say I was thankful for the choice of a GLUTEN FREE bun. All in all both times have been a 4 star experience.
I was impressed that after the lunch rush, a worker came along to change out the utensils in every salad bar item! Nice variety of choices. My husband had no difficulty in eating gluten-free. My adult daughter gave the tomato-basil soup a B+. And you can't beat the free ice cream!
Love this restaurant, come here at least once a week. Affordable for a college student and great food. I’m gluten free and the staff is very understanding.
The establishment boasts a chic, upscale atmosphere with outdoor seating available, making it a potentially perfect spot for dinner or dessert. The restaurant is known for its seafood, sushi, and gluten-free options, promising an appealing dining experience for a variety of tastes.
The service was commendable; the staff was patient and provided excellent recommendations, which I greatly appreciated. However, parking was a bit of a challenge due to the restaurant's popular location, which is something to keep in mind if you're planning a visit.
Great coffee and great staff. I am celiac and ordered a byob and didn’t realize it included granola. When I got my food I told the staff I didn’t order granola and that I am celiac and they quickly offered to remake it for me. As someone with this disease I greatly appreciate companies that understand how serious it is for me and they were so fast and friendly to accommodate! I will be back for sure!
A bit pricey. A friend with celiac got two different responses about gluten in their bolognese sauce. Why is there gluten in there?
Good portions. Good flavors. Tiramisu could be improved. Can be a bit noisy.
Beautiful restaurant with great food. If you're looking for delicious vegan options they have lots and even some gluten free. The staff was very helpful and informative.
I am celiac so it is it extremely difficult to find restaurants who can manage my food allergy. I have ordered this for pick-up and got the eggs Benedict (without the English muffin) and it is absolutely delicious! I will continue to be a customer as I know this food is safe for me to eat without any reaction. They have a good understanding of celiac/ gluten allergies.
As a white girl who has eaten a lot of Indian food I was so happy to try this place and taste such wonderful food. I also have a gluten allergy and was very impressed as how knowledgeable they were and could see with fresh ingredients and all the information listed it’s easy to navigate allergies or diets. A lot of the fried items use alternative flour and are fried in a separate fryer. It costs but is worth it and fyi it’s not Tuscaloosa spicy it’s authentic spicy so order accordingly. Staff was kind and helpful.
After a long day of traveling and moving our daughter into her new apartment, we were hungry and tired. We decided to eat at Metro Diner on Sunday evening as they had wheat-free options that my daughter could eat as well as vegetarian options for her friend. We arrived at 7:25, and they close at 8:00. There were just 2-3 other tables with people there, and they were not at all busy. We were told that they'd go ahead and seat us, but next time, if we were to arrive so late, then we should order ahead. It was clear they weren't happy to serve us at that time, so we just left. If a restaurant isn't accepting new customers during business hours, they should just lock their doors. This was especially frustrating since it's difficult to find a restaurant that has options to eat gluten-free (other than always having a salad). It can be pretty limiting for those who can't eat wheat. We thought we'd found a place that could accommodate us, but, sadly, they were not at all interested in serving us.
Great food! The gluten free pasta and sauce combo was so good! I couldn’t find any information on it anywhere on the internet, so I had to go in a little blind. But I was not disappointed what so ever. Order it!! Sooooo yummy!! The bartender who waited on us in the bar area at the booths was super friendly! I can’t remember her name... but it was a female, and we sat at the booths in the bar area on a Saturday night! She was great and they were busy! She gave us extra mints! Score! We would be back but we were there from out of town. Anyways, food was perfect and server was on point! 5 stars all around! Good job OHHHH GEEEE!! Still a fan!
I have to eat gluten free, so it is very difficult to find a place that has good gluten free options. I ordered the BBQ and potato cakes. It was very nicely played and tasted fabulous! Will definitely be back.
Cozy up to a wonderfully comfy window bench seat and take in the view of passersby while the owner of this establishment warms you up with her friendly demeanor & smile mailing you feel.like you're a guest in her home. Meanwhile, your veganish vittles are being
artfully composed in the kitchen using some surprisingly vegan ingredients.
The owner has really done her homework on the best dairy, gluten & meat free options while still offering a few meats for those who aren't ready for the plant based plunge! I don't know how she uses such high quality ingredients for the prices she charges.
P.S. Whatever you do, don't order the Strawberry Smoothie. It's the yummiest I have EVER and I don't want you to order them all !
Funky place that met this yankee’s pent-up need for catfish and greens. Yup, the cashier had just the right level of sass, but they understood our gluten-free needs, and gave us a good chuckle now and then.
Leaving the same review I left on Yelp!
Met friends here after the Bama/AU game. We were afraid there would be a wait, but thankfully word had not spread on how good this place is! Y’all need to get there! So thankful they offer gluten free pasta! Everything was delicious and full of flavor. Our only issue, the pizzas weren’t strong enough for the sauce and toppings! I guess that’s a good problem to have? The outside edges of the crust were nice and crispy, but the underneath was pretty flimsy. Not sure if the heat needed to be higher or they needed to cook longer. Also, seasoned dipping oil for the bread would have been nice. The Cannolis and Black Forest Cheesecake were so good!
Overall, we had a great experience when we went. Don’t sleep on this place!
Unique vibe - it's in converted church - sets this restaurant and bar apart. High ceilings, sound-absorbing drapes, mood lighting, upholstered booths, eclectic decor with royal and art deco flourishes. For those who remember 301 in Tuscaloosa, it's a bit of that, only more cavernous. Cute back patio with a lawn and a small stage, in addition to a performance stage in the main indoor dining area. Massive screen above the bar for watching the big game. Whether this place is good for a classy date night or an over-decorated sports bar depends on how often that screen gets used.
The tapas style small dishes provide variety and accommodates vegetarian and gluten free diets. Two of us split the bacon wrapped dates, street corn dip, fried cauliflower, croquettes, and sausage stuffed mushrooms. Very good but not top-tier elite cuisine. Terrific cocktails, not outrageously expensive. Good location that's set back from crowded downtown but not too remote. Definitely worth a try!
Celiac friendly
