The gluten-free lamb burger was delicious. The gluten-free bun was the best I have eaten. Garrett the bartender was knowledgeable about celiac disease and made a delicious old-fashioned!

We LOVE this taco hub! This is one of the only places my husband (who is very allergic to gluten) can find hard taco shells. Laney was our server this time and was fabulous! Everyone we’ve ever had wait on us here has been wonderful. The tacos are second to none. We LOVE love love this restaurant; it’s our favorite here! If you’re on the fence, go! Support local artists (the place is full of local art!) and delightful tacos!

Great vibe, and better food! Kitchen staff was knowledgeable about gluten sensitivity and came out to correct our order out of extra caution to avoid a food that had gluten in it!

Great atmosphere. Friendly, smiling faces greeting and seating. Drink order prompt, nice friendly chat with server to start the order. Food was delivered quickly with everything as ordered. Bathroom was clean and well stocked. I will eat here again and bring my family next time. Wish i had room for dessert because it looked tasty in the pic. A server was at a near by table explaining they offered a gluten free dessert. Go & enjoy some great outback food when you are in knoxville.

Finally got to go for a late lunch. I was not disappointed. I received a gluten feee menu at the front. My server was extremely knowledgeable about gluten free options and when I asked a question he wasn’t 100% sure of, he asked the kitchen staff. I had the steak burger on a gluten free bun (which was delicious) with cheddar mashed potatoes and a gluten free brownie with a kahlua chocolate sauce. It was delicious. The staff was great, the atmosphere was laid back and easy and the food was extremely good. A new safe go to place for me!

Fantastic food and friendly staff. I have a gluten allergy, and before they served us, they realized they added potatoes that were cooked in a fryer with food containing gluten. They apologize and re-cooked a complete new meal. They could have simply removed the contaminated food, but we're kind enough to make sure it was safe. It's definitely one of our favorite Knoxville restaurants.

Always love their Salmon but they have a gluten free menu and a few times now when getting the salmon off the gluten free menu, I have had bad belly issues. So if you are gluten free make sure they prepare away from the gluten

Frank Haviland

Really enjoyable steakhouse here in the Knoxville area. Offers a lot of different entrees, appetizers, unique proteins, and hardy sides. Healthy list of wines, spirits, and unique mixed cocktails. They are able to accommodate allergies, with a knowledgeable staff that can help you navigate the menu. One of our favorite dishes was the Wagyu. They are specifically able to accommodate gluten allergies and cross contamination concerns.

If you’re looking for the best tacos in downtown Knoxville, you have to come here. Compared to Chivo and soccer taco, this is the best. We really love the fish tacos, dip trio and the Cuban. Portion sizes are really good. Our vegetarian friends love the black bean burger. I even have gluten-free friends that can enjoy a meal here. Their margaritas are the best downtown. I highly recommend the blood orange margarita. The atmosphere is quirky and fun, which matches their neon sign, paying homage to the name. It’s always lively, and there are some days you can catch live music. Prices are fair and good for what you’re getting. Portion size is filling. Since they’ve come under new ownership a few years ago, it has greatly improved. Previously, I would not go here. But now it’s become one of my favorites. I have even brought out of town clients here for dinner who have enjoyed it. It is a laid-back atmosphere. The service has always been excellent, and the staff has always been attentive. You can tell that people enjoy it there. I do recommend getting a reservation here if you are looking for outdoor seating or having a large party 6+, especially during their busy time at dinner. The patio feels quickly in the warmer months, so if you want that space get a reservation. Their back door leads to Marble Alley’s upstairs bar, which is a great place to go after you’ve had your fill for games, or to enjoy the bowling alley.

Great venue. Excited to see a gluten free bun option on their menu as well.

Jordan was amazing! So sweet and always helpful. She checks on us a great amount and helped me figure out what was gluten free that I could eat. Would come back!
