Great gluten free options.

John Strohm

Great gluten free food. Thoughtful meals inluding both seafood and "not seafood" as the menu puts it.

Many gluten free options. Did not get sick for celiac.

Mia Stevens

Great for gluten free and celiac folks!! Many options plus gf only frier and gf beer! Phone ate last because I was so excited about it!

The cafe is loud and the coffee is very sweet. Personally I did not enjoy my coffee. They also do not have any gluten free bakery options, which was a huge bummer!

Jennifer Quinn

Joshua was our server and he was very helpful as my partner is gluten free and he made sure he knew all the options. Our order was taken and came out fast and was very good. Thanks Joshua!

I ordered gluten free noodles and asked the cashier what was a sauce that contained no gluten and she told me to get the Pad Thai so I did I ordered and I live pretty far so I didn’t notice until I got home but they gave me the regular noodles and there was crunchy stuff in it (I’m assuming contain gluten) the cashier herself had to refer to a sheet of paper for ingredients so I figured I was safe. I have a very high gluten intolerance (not celiac) so I thought this would be a safe place for me to eat. On top of this is took a bit to get me my food. Pretty disappointed.

I had a great experience at Amber Ox! We had a delicious dinner and the service was excellence. We were a group of 4 and one of us had celiacs disease (gluten free) - the staff was very accommodating and made sure everything we ordered was free from any cross contamination. We split the Biscuit Board and Roasted Hickory Carrots as an appetizer. The carrots were perfectly cooked, and I enjoyed the pairing with chimichurri and beet hummus. The highlight was my entree - Seared Chesapeake Bay Rockfish with pea puree, lemon farro, and ramp chimichurri. The salmon was cooked perfectly, and the pairing made a perfect combination. My only let down was the grape-soda radler, which was just a weird flavor combination and tasted too artificial… it would have been better with just sparkling grape juice.

Came in with a toddler and the people up front were so friendly with her it made our short wait so great. I got the gluten free pepperoni pizza….WOW, just wow. So delicious. My bf got the regular pepperoni…he looked over at me in the car and was like…this is some of the best pizza! Too bad we don’t live near here, this would be our go to spot!

Greg MARTIN

Great salads and burgers! Extensive gluten free menu. Service was great. Can't wait to go back.

Izzy Allen

I have celiacs, so going here and having safe GF options is great! I did wish I knew about the GF pastry delivery being at 9am. Other than that, great coffee, vibes, and food.

Jay Lloyd

Have great customer service, great gluten free sub rolls!

David Huss

Excellent. Good gluten free options if that matters to you.

Kathryn Burns

Gluten free bread available!

Dewaine Torregroza

Come here and get the tacos. Albeit expensive this place is delicious and consistent. Expect to spend $25/per person. Take-out sides are very very tiny, that is my only complaint. My kids love the poblano Mac n cheese. Gluten-free friendly, great bar staff and a good beer menu make this the best bbq shop in Williamsburg. Don't eat at busch gardens, go here.

Food was delicious. Staff was very helpful with avoiding foods I'm allergic to. Lots of gluten free and dairy free and vegan combinations. Beautiful patio to eat outside.

I will never ever go to Mooyah again!! This experience was awful! My daughter & I were going to share a burger because she wasn’t that hungry. So I ordered the Build Your Own Single Burger with an outrageous price of $3.50 for a gluten free bun, but what do you do if you are gluten free? You HAVE to pay it. I stated the toppings I wanted, one of them being mayonnaise. The associate (Joseph) repeated it back to me saying mayonnaise. I added the Combo Meal (Personal Sweet Regular Drink and Personal Sweet Fries) and a bottled water. I have always liked their sweet tea (as it says on the drink machine) and was looking forward to getting some. Yuck!!! It was unsweetened tea. Not happy, but what do you do?? Get some sweeteners, right? Wrong! Nothing but sugars and there wasn’t many of them. I went to the counter and asked if they had any sweeteners. He said he would get some. It took a good at least 5 minutes of me waiting near the counter to finally get some when he went into the cabinet under the drink counter. I reluctantly put it in my tea & it tasted awful of course. They finally brought our order in a paper bag to our table. The burger was very small. I paid $7.29 plus $3.50 for this??? Then, as we each took bites of it, we discovered it had mustard on it. I HATE mustard and my daughter is allergic to it. I looked at my receipt and sure enough it said mustard. What could I do? Take it back? My word against theirs? The customer is always right, like the saying goes…not anymore in this day and age. We were screwed. I finished off just the meat part of the burger. Not happy. Never again. Btw, that one burger, fries and 2 drinks came to $22.28. For what? A small burger my daughter couldn’t eat, fries, which I admit were good and 2 drinks, one of which tasted awful, in the garbage.

We reserved one of the dining rooms for our wedding reception dinner. It was a wonderful experience! We had a great time planning and coordinating with Howard who is really helpful and knowledgeable. The food, wine, and desserts were absolutely spectacular. The restaurant is already beautiful so we only added a minimal amount of floral arrangements for an elegant dinner. Service was lovely and our Day of Coordinator worked seamlessly with Le Yaca staff to set up. We definitely recommend ordering plenty of amuse bouche. There were incredible gluten free options for all the courses. The pastry chef made us DELICIOUS cake and dessert options. I really couldn't have asked for anything better. Highly recommend Le Yaca French Restaurant for anything from a formal dinner to a casual lunch. They WILL take care of you.

The food here is really good, and they have gluten free options but I’d like to see more. The outdoor seating is super nice but the inside feels too “fancy” for a midday walk in. But, the staff is so nice that I would feel comfortable doing so.

Maddie

gluten free options! quick and delicious service

I have celiac and love to go here for a yummy and cheap gf bite. Very fast service and delicious food!

This was a fabulous meal and dining experience. It’s not a fine dining place, and it’s not fast food. It is excellent food, and comes quick with great service. We had oysters on the half shell, octopus (which had great flavor, but not texture), a fried whole red snapper, and muscles and lobster. My wife’s Gluten Free and Whole 30 AIP+Fodmap dietary needs were easily accommodated from the menu and waitstaff knowledge of it. Overall, this is a high recommend for your time in Williamsburg. The pricing was also extremely fair for the food and experience.

If I could give more than five stars, I would. From the moment we walked through the doors at Opus 9, we felt like VIPs. Hailey was the highlight of the venue for our family. She was warm, attentive, and had that rare knack for making every guest feel special—honestly, she set the tone for a truly memorable evening. We had a few requests (one of us is gluten-free, another had a birthday), and Hailey handled everything with genuine care and a smile. She anticipated our needs before we even asked, checked in just the right amount (never hovering, always helpful), and even stopped by the table to ask how we were doing. She should be the manager! The food was incredible—best steak in town, hands down—but Hailey’s hospitality is what really made the night. It’s rare to be treated so well in such a bustling, sought-after spot. You can tell she truly loves what she does, and Opus 9 is lucky to have her. If you want your evening to be seamless and feel a little extra special, you can't go wrong with Opus 9. We can’t wait to come back!

They had the best gluten free bun of ever tasted anywhere highly recommend them

I want to thank Melvin the manager , he is so kind, and definitely wants to make the customer happy. Thank you to the owner and Melvin, for making my Mom feel so special, the day before Mother’s Day, she is on a gluten free diet, and the pizza she had was so delicious! Fantastic service and food😊

Beautiful café on the waterfront, fresh produce, locally made desserts (got the red velvet brownie.AMAZING , I love that there was options for gluten free And vegan! Staff was friendly and gave me a complimentary cup of water which was perfect on such a hot day, I did not come prepared, best part was the Sandwich Turkey and Brie for me, although my friends vegan chickpea wrap looked great, the cinnamon bread and Mayo made my sandwich one of the best I’ve ever had at a state/federal park!! My ticket is good for 7 days so I may come back for another turkey Brie and to try some macarons!

Amazing food at a reasonable price. Went with friends that have celiacs disease and the hosts were super accommodating and communicative, which really meant a lot to them. First time being here but I’m definitely returning!

Virginia Payne
