Disappointing Experience Despite High Hopes
As someone with a gluten intolerance, I was genuinely excited to try Grapevine Café due to their extensive gluten-free menu. Unfortunately, the experience fell far short of expectations, and we won’t be returning.
We arrived early on a Sunday (around 7:15 a.m.) when the restaurant was less than half full, so we expected prompt service. Our server, who never introduced herself, took our drink order (hot tea, smoothie, Diet Coke), which took about 10 minutes to arrive. After placing our food order, we waited another 25 minutes for our meals.
The food itself was underwhelming—my potatoes were cold and completely unseasoned. Unfortunately, I never had the chance to address it with our server, as she never returned to check on us. Dirty dishes remained on our table, and I had to go to the host stand to request the check since our server had vanished entirely.
With so many great breakfast options in town, I recommend exploring those instead. Grapevine Café might look promising, but the poor service and lackluster food made for a truly disappointing visit.

My family and I had a wonderful time here. The wait staff was very kind and accommodating to some of us needing gluten free options. They even had their own gluten free menu which made it very easy to find what we wanted to eat.
My wife is not gluten free and loved the bread. Not to mention, all pasta and pizza dough is made from scratch every morning. I love the idea of knowing my food hasn’t been sitting for days in a fridge.
When I’m back in South Padre, I would dine here again.

Grabbed take out and it was super easy to order online and grab to go. Ordered the gluten free crust and both pizzas were phenomenal! Would get again.

Everyone enjoyed their meals, great atmosphere and our server, Meagan was fantastic! She was friendly, helpful and very nice. Definitely the best server in SPI.
The burger was cooked perfectly, the fries had a great crisp and they have gluten free buns!
Seriously, if you visit Tom and Jerry's for dinner, ask for Meagan!

Amazing food and service! Very good gluten free options, they even have real maple syrup on request and gluten free bread and spices. My dad has celiac and eating gluten results in food poisoning symptoms. It’s great to have such a wonderful option!

My family and I dined here several days ago during our vacation in South Padre. The restaurant esthetically is pleasing, or at least isn’t a bore. It’s on the water, so many customers have that view available to them.
The food was neither great, nor horrible. Unfortunately though the service we received from our waiter was off-putting and rude.
Many in my family eat gluten-free, and Jimmy, our waiter, was not accommodating with our diet restriction. He seemed to scoff at our questions about the menu, like he was annoyed by our curiosity. He seemed impatient with us struggling to find something we wanted from their menu.
This lively spot offers a family-friendly atmosphere with both energetic indoor seating and quieter outdoor areas perfect for relaxing. They thoughtfully accommodate gluten-free needs, featuring options like cauliflower crust pizza and vegan cheese, ensuring an inclusive dining experience.

My husband and I went in here and when we spoke to the waitress we told her several times that my husband is allergic to gluten because he has celiac disease. So when we ordered we asked if there was any breading or if it’s cooked on the same area that anything containing gluten is cooked and she said she will be sure to tell the kitchen. She said they usually give some bread with the meal my husband ordered and I said they cannot put the bread on there or he will get sick. She said okay I’ll tell them. My husband gets his food and it has bread on it. This is not okay. Especially since we told the waitress multiple times that he cannot have bread. The food became cross contaminated. I don’t recommend this restaurant if you have allergies since they can’t follow something as simple as not putting bread on the plate.

If I could give zero stars for service, I would. We placed an order on the phone hours in advanced. We went to get our pizzas- they haven’t been made yet. We ordered a gluten free pizza because I have celiacs. They didn’t have a gluten free pizza on our receipt. We asked if they charged us for one and when they said no- we asked them to switch it to gluten free since they hadn’t made the pizza yet. They told us no. Roman made us pay for the pizza that wasn’t gluten free (even though it hadn’t even been made yet) and then a gluten free pizza. It was literally the worst service ever. Which is so sad because we’ve owned a place on the island for years and have frequented the original Gabriella’s for years with no problems. Then on top of that- we waited OVER an hour for our pizzas. Worst service ever. Roman provided the worst service- was rude, disrespectful and even though he messed up the order (when I have a hereditary dietary issue) made no strides to make it better. Instead he made us pay for a whole other pizza that hadn’t been made. Oh and our pizza was cold when we got it.
