I wish I lived closer bc this place is amazing! They can make basically anything off menu gluten free. They are aware of cross-contact and did it well. They had some interesting dishes I’ve never heard of like a burrito with pistachios and portabellas in with the chicken (my mom had in a corn tortilla). I had enchiladas without shells and they were great. I ate cactus for the first time as a side and it was yummy! I’m sensitive and had no reactions. They were so incredibly fast. I went to the bathroom after we ordered and the food was at the table when I came back!! Good portions and decent price. They were friendly, good with the kids and came out and sang for my son’s bday when we mentioned it. Loved this place.
Went here for the first time. When I first called to ask a question, the guy that answered could’ve been more friendly. I got 2 gluten free crust pizzas (only comes in 10”, so they’re small) and both had crust so burnt that they were very hard to chew. Not worth the $34.29
It was nice to have so many gluten free options available. The food had good flavor. The crab rangoons are my favorite - delicious! Our server was great. Very attentive.
🌹I stopped in today around lunchtime and ordered papadeli -Not sure if I spelled that right, but it was absolutely nectar of the gods.
🌿 I ordered it with gluten-free noodles since IM gluten sensitive. I must say the whole dish was absolutely over the top sensational.
Black out good as Anthony Bourdain used to say!! Ekkk - ahhh!🔥
Thank you Conner - Always 100% professional always 100% delicious ….great food great people great experience. I would highly recommend Carmellas.
Can’t wait to return …. I feel so lucky to have Carmela‘s in Appleton. This place is six stars baby. See you all pronto!!! 🌟Ciao! 🐦🔥
Our first time here and NOT at all disappointed. The atmosphere is calm and collected. Definitely modern. Dark with a lot of natural light The menu is vast, and there are many options for a few different diet restrictions, gluten-free being one of them. The portion sizes were much larger than we anticipated they would be. Well worth the prices associated. I had the Greek Bowl, and my husband had the Cubano Panini. We both very much enjoyed our meals.
They have a large coctail/wine menu and also have NA options. PepsiCo is the soda company they use.
We will absolutely be back again, and absolutely recommend.
Beautiful location with indoor and outdoor dining areas. The food we ordered was very good, from the turbot to the salmon and the ravioli. Portion sizes were appropriate. Our server was amiable and attentive. We would come here again the next time we're in Appleton!
Gluten free and vegetarian dishes are offered, though we didn't try any of them. Varied wine and beer menu. Nice dessert offerings—the Ciocolatto Fiorentino was just right.
The food is always good & the staff is always so friendly. Went through drive thru today as we were headed home to Wisconsin Rapids & as I was about to get on the highway, we noticed they messed up our order (gave us regular chicken nuggets instead of the grilled we ordered, as I have a gluten allergy) & went back right away to tell them. They all apologized & fixed the problem right away! Always worth the drive for their great food & excellent guest service!
Stopped for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. Spacious dining area and windows allowing for plenty of natural light. Gluten free options were clearly marked on the menu, although they do not have a dedicated fryer for sides. Our waitress, Katie H, was very friendly, knowledgeable about the menu and made me comfortable that my meal would be prepared safely. The Morning Madness burger on a gluten free bun was excellent. The Nut Job and Wacky Mac burgers, and snickerdoodle and chocolate chip Kookies (not GF) got rave reviews from my husband and son, too. Thanks for the attentive service, great food and gluten free options. We’ll be back!
Amazing drinks and food. Waitress was incredibly knowledgeable on gluten free options. Scallops were amazing, highly recommend! May be the best food in town! Call ahead for reservations.
My last two orders asking for gluten free noodles have failed to use gluten free noodles. The ticket clearly says use gluten free and allergy aware. This is very disappointing.
Friendly staff, fast service, and good food. The onion rings are good and my mom says the turkey burger was amazing. Gluten free buns looked good, too - nice and fluffy.
I have a gluten allergy. I ordered a burger with a GF bun. My husband decided he wanted to make it a meal and get cheese curds for himself (he doesn’t have an allergy). The nice lady who took our order kindly let us know the cheese curds are not gluten free. It is so nice of them to not only care but be knowledgeable about this allergy. A second nice employee (I think her name is Emma) came out to our car and asked if the gluten free burger was due to an allergy, and let us know again that the cheese curds are not GF. Thank you! ❤️
I’m so happy with this restaurant! I can not tell you how much I appreciate their concern! I was so impressed with the way the handled it. And they always package the gluten free food is a different bag than the food with gluten. Great job taking care of your customers!
I'm positively biased when it comes to Denny's 😁. With that said, this location is always awesome, clean & welcoming. It's always a good time! And the food, yes. I usually get the bourbon chicken platter or sizzling skillet minus cheese. With a gluten-free bun on the side since my life is lame and I can't eat regular bread 😩
Doing real time, service to start was very solid. Got a couple appetizers. First one is delicious. Lady with me has gluten issues, they have been great about it. I'm personally pro-gluten. She needs to toughen up a bit....
Healthy clean food served with such friendly employees. They are especially helpful and very carefull with customers that are dealing with gluten allergies.
I have Celiac and was very unsure about eating here. They give u a special bowl and alert the grill who then cleans a special spot for when you're ready. They did an amazing job! Things were marked as far as sauces so I knew what was safe for me, but they do have an allergy menu for reference. Cross contamination is possible on the buffet(where u get your ingredients), im super sensitive and did not leave sick! We will definitely go back. Thanks for accommodating people with diet restrictions it really means alot to us when you really so great care and concern when we eat at you're establishment.
The Citrus Shrimp Mac was superb! It was my first time at MACS and I'm thoroughly impressed, and hopefully, you'll be too! I love that there are pork-free & gluten-free options available!
Always a positive experience! I’ve been here many times and enjoy the menu, the fact that they offer gluten free options, and the cozy aesthetic. It’s definitely on my list of favorite places to grab lunch in Appleton.
Tempest offers delicious coffee brewed by highly skilled baristas, a rotating menu rich with locally sourced ingredients, and a relaxed modern environment where everyone is welcome to express themselves.
Espresso, when prepared the right way, can transform any boring workday into a fantastically productive workday- every visit to Tempest has helped to produce some of my very best work. If you’ve never had a coffee that makes you do a little happy dance in your seat, I highly suggest you stop at Tempest to find out how happy dance-worthy coffee tastes.
The menu rotates seasonally, allowing for the freshest and best tasting local produce to shine. There are options for nearly all dietary restrictions. Gluten free, Vegan, as well as selective GFV. All in-house bakery is vegan. They use a high quality sourdough that some gluten-sensitive folks, like myself, are able to enjoy.
There’s ample parking nearby, As a regular, I highly suggest, parking in the first lot on the left or right rather than hoping for a spot down the hill and having to do a five-point turn-around.
The interior is modern and clean, with local art featured year-round. It can get a bit loud at peak hours but, off hours are wonderful for reading or simply enjoying the beautiful view of the river. Outdoor seating is available when weather permits.
Whether eating inside or outside, please note, there are two dish return bins on either end of the bar.
No matter the time of day or time of week, you can expect to have an amazing experience at Tempest.
Great visit to Seth’s today, our first time. The menu was really great considering I’m gluten free, lots of options. I had probably the best GF sandwich I’ve ever had! Also had the red pepper and tomato soup which was delightful! Highly recommend.
Staff was very friendly! Very cute place. Lots of seating. The perfect diner! Food was good. Grilled chicken wrap, pancakes, corn beef hash, all tasty! They also had great gluten free pancakes and toast!
My boyfriend and I eat here alot because it’s one of the few places we can order gluten free. However, lately everytime we order something is messed up. I ask for extra veggies, I get none. Another time the peppers were sliced SO big, like literally I had slices that were half the size of a full pepper. Forgetting beans, not adding sauce etc etc
We also usually do pick up, so we don’t notice until we’re home. I called once but the lady was rude. Overall the food is good, but I’d def check your order before leaving.
Usually order for pick up, always enjoy the good food, recently moved back and still delicious as ever. They forgot my Bang Bang Shrimp sauce once but I ordered two other items plain, and I bet they thought it meant the shrimp too, but it was still delicious without the sauce 😁. Always look forward to ordering the Steak Sandwich or getting that Bang Bang Shrimp. Thanks for delicious meals and the friendly staff. One suggestion, if you could get the Cole Slaw to be Gluten Free that would be awesome, Parent has restrictions and would be great to get a couple sides that she can enjoy too. Always a favorite destination.
Our server Kevin was very good. I have to be gluten free and he asked the kitchen if they could make my fish that way. The chef did a very good job with my haddock.
Celiac friendly
