Not Celiac safe. Went there for lunch yesterday and my wife got glutened by cross contamination.

The food was really really good, I got the fried chicken, the crab cakes and we got the chocolate cake. They were all gluten free and delicious. The building though was so old, and it smelled awful, was very dusty and was a bit hard to breath because it was so musky. I’ve been to some restaurants that were in older buildings and none of them have been like that. Then our service was really bad also. So food-5 stars, atmosphere-1 star service-1 star. There is outdoor seating so maybe it’s worth it to sit outside and eat in the fresh air. They had a ton of gluten free options though.

The silver diner is a great restaurant, offering a variety of foods vegan as well as all gluten-free, many of choices. You can ask for breakfast, also can have lunch or dinner our during breakfast hours. Sebastian was our server today he has a great personality, quick server and very polite. I would recommend the silver diner if you’re in the Fairfax area.

A little loud, but phenomenal spot. Tons of gluten free options. Fast service and extremely affordable. The app to order makes splitting checks way less awkward. I recommend if you are ordering for you and your partner, sit next to them if you are in a group. It makes it way easier to know what’s yours.

Met up with a friend here since it was a mid-way point between DC and Manassas and she needed gluten free options. Hadn't been here since pre-COVID, but it is still awesome! Service was great, food options are plentiful, and all the dog-named menu items are always fun. Melted Brie on sandwiches are sooo good. And my friend said the GF crust on her pizza was the best she's had. (BTW, if we could get a Prince William County location that would be GREAT)

In its "glory days" it was ranked in 2017 & 2020 as the "Best Food Allergy Champion" for their extensive allergy menus and their preparation for making food safely. These are proudly listed on their website too. In fact it used to be a safe go-to place for me as GD had many Gluten Free options. I could even get loaded fries that were safe! Due to the change in ownership the company as a whole has gotten rid of the dedicated fryers and significantly reduced the GF menu. Big bummer and crumby of the company to disregard so many of their customers. I've had several worsening experiences but this takes the cake. The grilled wings continuously come out charred and inedible. Spending $53 and 19 out of my 24 wings ordered were charred to a crisp...

4 stars because before I became gluten free for health reasons, tony’s was my favorite pizza place. unfortunately it was the worst gluten free pizza i’ve ever had. the crust was crumbly and chewy, not crispy and fresh like their regular pizza crust. I couldn’t even get through 2 pieces. it was not good, please consider trying a new gf crust.

Afternoon Tea at Mazadar is a wonderful, delicious experience!! Ida provided warm hospitality to me and my mom and sister, with a beautiful and abundant spread of sandwiches, fruits, veggies, cheese, and more. The dips, served with pita, were tasty and unique. The homemade scones and jam were phenomenal!! We enjoyed a pot of their house-mixed black tea and then the honey ginger lemon tea - both wonderful! The ambiance at Mazadar is also comfortable and charming. I was especially impressed and grateful that Ida was able to adjust the menu for my sister’s gluten free and dairy free diet, providing her with a plate of GF / DF sandwiches so she could enjoy the experience equally with no concern about the menu. Ida was so kind and wonderful to work with in booking the reservation and hosting our tea party. We will definitely come back!! Hopefully for another tea party but I would also love to try the regular dining at Mazadar as well.

Fantastically pleasant staff and a wonderful selection of gluten-free options! Absolutely recommended and well worth every penny.

Thank you so much for the amazing food at our end of year teacher luncheon last week. Truly, something for everyone! Our school staff is a mix of carnivores, vegetarians, vegans, gluten intolerant, and picky eaters ( that's me!) So many of us went back for seconds. I am planning on coming to your restaurant with my husband soon. The four stars for atmosphere, is ONLY because our luncheon was held in OUR elemtary school cafeteria.

The best burgers I've ever had! I'm gluten free so I was so excited to eat a burger on a bun! The service was a bit slow, but we were a large group so I can't hold this against them. The young man who waited on us was delightful. He checked on us numerous times between waiting on other customers and cleaning tables. The music was a bit loud for my taste, but I'm sure it suits a younger clientele. During our short stay in Fairfax we went back a second time, which says a lot. Overall, it is a bit pricey but a super great burger! Update: I read some reviews mentioning the ordering kiosk. There is one there and you are encouraged to use it, but I was with some older people who wanted to order the old-fashioned way, with a human. 😄 The young man working the floor said he understood and gladly took our orders.

Cute coffee shop. They have gluten free options! Cubano was very good ;)

We went to Ocean Paradise tonight for a celebration and loved it! Katie, the waitress, was so incredibly sweet. We had a lot of questions, and she was extremely patient with us and answered all of them! Everyone in our party also really enjoyed their food! I had the lobster pasta (gluten free) - the lobster was one of the best I have had especially in this area. The lobster was so sweet and tender and cooked to perfection! The gluten free pasta was cooked perfectly-which most places do not know how to do! My husband had the Connecticut style lobster roll, and he agreed the lobster was amazing. My daughter had the seafood platter, and she really enjoyed her meal as well. We had key lime pie for desert and loved it! Believe the reviews on this one-I am extremely picky.

I get Roots at least once a week and it is consistently delicious and service is top notch! I have a few dietary restrictions and it is very gluten free friendly. The key differentiators of Roots to other fast casual restaurants is that they ALWAYS give great portions and the staff is so, so notably friendly! Yesterday, we went an hour before closing and there was definitely enough chicken for my bowl, but it was the last bit. Instead of giving me this, they made a new batch which was so unexpected and nice. I will always come back!

Absolutely amazing! I can’t have gluten and they went out of their way to make sure I wasn’t going to have any issues with cross contamination, kept me informed of all of the options available to me, and just generally made it a wonderful experience. The manager is fantastic and I will be going back
