Hadn't been to Uncle Maddios in a while. I built my own pizza for lunch on a wheat crust. As always there's fresh veggies gluten free crust & other healthy options. I don't like the fact that u can't call in an order for lunch. Management said the reason is so they can focus on the customers in the store. I agree but think they should accept call in orders b/c everyone else does it & some people don't have an hour to eat.

Absolutely amazing! Introduced my son to French cuisine and oysters for the first time. Everything we tried was delicious, fresh and perfectly seasoned. We also appreciated the gluten free offerings, including pastries. I’ll add that the service was wonderful-we felt cared for and welcomed and my son enjoyed the staff sharing about different oyster types and asking about his experience. What a treat to repeat! Already planning our return…

Only giving 4 stars instead of 5 because I ordered my burger without cheese and still ended up receiving a burger with cheese on it. The burger itself was great besides the stomach pain due to the cheese. Didn't realize order was incorrect till we got back to our hotel. Despite this, I was very satisfied with the gluten free bun. The sweet potato tots were the best part of my meal by far, and I'm not even a huge fan of sweet potato. If you're on the fence about trying them, just do it!

Nice restaurant inside the downtown Marriott. For those who need to eat gluten-free, quite a few options and the server we had was very knowledgeable. Open air concept next to a rather large bar. Food is sourced directly from local farms. Foid portions and quality very good and extremely convenient if going to an event at the Spectrum Center. Our server ended up being monopolized by another patron -- lots of chatter about personal history -- to the point that there was an extreme drop off in service to our table - drinks went dry, dirty dishes not removed,a very long wait to get our check. We would go back, but hope the service is better.

Delicious, fast, friendly, gluten free options too. It's on the downstairs level of a larger building, the signs on the upper floor don't really point you in the direction.

First time here and had such a lovely experience. Our waiter Carlos (I believe was his name) was amazing! I had to restrict myself from gluten and dairy and he made sure none of my food had that stuff. We enjoyed the scallops and the branzino.

Great service, nice atmosphere. Wagyu steak medium well was incredibly tender but not very flavorful. Everything else was delicious including the gluten free bread.
