I had Rigatoni. It was delicious. The scenery is very pretty and formal. Service is very nice but it took us a while to get our food. Definitely not a quick bite. The truffle fries are delicious as well. Clearly label vegetarian, vegan and gluten free dishes.

Heather Neuman

Food was amazing. Great atmosphere, rapid service. We dined in. I do not recommend if Gluten Free for actual allergy as I did get ill shortly after leaving as I do with cross contamination. They are spot on with gluten friendly.

The best brunch buffet I’ve ever had!! Loved visiting Adele’s for my bachelorette. Had a couple of friends with dietary restrictions including celiac, and the staff were so happy to accommodate. Special shoutouts to Megan, the most incredible and friendly waitress ever, and the amazing chef Jerry! Would recommend to anyone visiting Nashville! 💕

An invite from our friend @thetipjarnash took us to @sundanewasian for one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in Nashville. Its name is a nod to the Southeast Asian continental shelf underlying the region inspiring the myriad of flavors highlighted by the array of cuisine from founder @billydec and executive chef @mike_sunda From Dim Sum to sushi rolls, main courses and “new Asian creations,” there is truly something on the menu for everyone. As always, we’ve posted a guide to our “reel” menu below in case you want to say, “I want what they had” (and we’re pretty sure you will.) 🍹: Grass Tiger & Strawberry Fields 🍣: Signature Crispy Rice {Wagyu & Spicy Tuna} 🥗: Crispy Brussels Sprouts 🍱: Sweet Potato Caterpillar & Island Maki 🐟: Tom Yum Sea Bass 🥮: Bibingka* Also of note: Kevin our waiter was incredibly kind and knowledgeable - he elevated the entire dining experience and we’d definitely recommend requesting seating in his section. Also a huge thanks to Matt for his hospitality and attention. Thank you Sunda for a top-notch experience from food to service, start to finish. *Bibingka was an off-menu dessert item that you absolutely should ask for. If you happen to have a gluten sensitivity, bonus points that this cake is made with rice flour! In fact, many items on the menu are friendly to dairy, gluten and other allergies or sensitivities. Also of note, most of their cocktails can be served as mocktails without sacrificing any flavor so you can still drink decadently without imbibing!

This place had great service and very good atmosphere. We were on the patio a group of 12. This is higher end and designed for sharing. The portion sizes were bigger than they said (tri tip easily feed 4 of us). You get what you pay for, it was high quality and great tasting food, and priced accordingly. Also has a great whiskey collection and one of the best gluten free menus.

Paige was amazing! So sweet and knowledgeable about the gluten free items!

Shannon Farthing

Emmy Squared was amazing! We chose this restaurant bc of the gluten free crust option! This was the best pizza, you would never know it was gluten free. Hands down a win!

Chloe H

Great selection of gluten-free meals on the menu and servers were very knowledgeable and understanding of my allergy. Food was really yummy and the coffee was the best we had whilst visiting nashville. I will be back again next time I'm in Nashville without a doubt.

Alexi James

Jessica was the best server! We waited at the bar for a few minutes while our table was getting cleaned. Dinner was amazing, service was amazing, and we really enjoyed our dessert. Our server, Jessica, was sensitive to my husband’s gluten allergy. She let us know all the menu options that were available to him and all the ones that could be available to him with adjustments. We LOVED The Magi live music group!! We will definitely be back!

Emma Hill

Incredible food and incredible service! They have lots of gluten free options, even biscuits! Our server was so friendly and attentive. A must go for a delicious Nashville breakfast.

Moshe Sananes

The food was just ok, not great. Wait time and service are pretty long. Not really worth the wait. But they have gluten-free options, which we need.

Daniel Norris

This place was kind of a cluster. The good: My wife got the aztec bowl & that was pretty good. And the baked fries that came with my burger were really good. The bad: They served up a Cesar salad to our friend without any dressing, and had a hard time finding the dressing when asked for some. The Shitake Teriyaki burger was just a smear of mushroom, cabbage, and sauce on a bun and looked nothing like the picture on the menu. The ugly: They tried to convince me that a whole wheat bun was gluten free. It took a few minutes, but they eventually checked the packaging from the buns and re-made the burger on a small GF bagle. They didn't actually have any GF buns despite it being on the menu, and it sounded like their cook didn't know what GF meant. This could result in someone with ceilac getting really sick from their food. I expect better from a restaurant like this.

Adriene Essex Williams

A classic with delicious food and amazing staff. Love that they have gluten free pancakes!

Steven Clark

Many good options. We found celiac friendly options. The atmosphere was similar to an Asian style Hawker market, but much less haggard.

Jill Swisher

I appreciate that they had plenty of gluten free options!

Lisa Mayberry

Many gluten-free options as shared plates, entrée, and dessert. I had a wonderful birthday dinner here with the topper being the gluten-free cherry cheesecake.

Julia

Great place! Fantastic menu, great for gluten free choices. Prices match the quality and the service was great. Definitely give this place a visit.

Serena M

This restaurant has great variety. Our group had two vegans, a meat and potatoes guy, and someone avoiding gluten. We all had great options that were delicious! I would highly recommend the oat cakes!

Brynna Hower

Kiara E was our server and she was amazing! I’m gluten free (celiac) and when I mentioned this to Kiara, she told me she’s gluten free as well and gave me tons of recommendations and put my mind at ease when ordering. And the food was seriously perfect.

Yousaf Khan

Had the veggie breakfast sandwich, corn bread blueberry muffin and some gluten free cookie…all phenomenal…would love to visit again

Krista Seifert

Great service and atmosphere. Best food I’ve had in a long time. Plus I am gluten free and they have many great options!

Great place to eat. Gluten-free is always a challenge but we found a few things on the menu to make it work.

Ashlea was such an amzing server. Lovely personality. Food was great and the atmosphere was lovely. And their gluten free menu was very accommodating and gave many options.

Liv Oaxaca

Great for gluten free! Jesse was very helpful.

I was there with some friends this Saturday. Everyone had a different sandwich to be able to try different things from the menu. The Brie and fig was original and the brisket sandwich was really as well but for me the best was the pimento cheese with Mac n cheese sandwich, it’s definitely my favorite and the pimento cheese and the Mac combo match really well it’s a 10/10 for this melt. Overall great experience, the service was quick and their gluten free options allowed my friend who has celiac to eat with us. I also wan to mention that they have vegan and vegetarian options, a very complete menu.

Crystal

Gluten free pancakes!!!!!! Yummy Loved listening to Johny Cash while sitting in this cute diner

Paola Hegedus

DELISH!!!! This was probably one of the best smash burgers I’ve ever had (ordered without a bun bc I’m gluten free) AND I didn’t expect this but the chef made sure my order was cooked separately from anything with gluten!!! So sweet of them! Eat here!!

Amy Bolan

Impossible Burger and gluten free buns available. Waffle fries regular and sweet potato are very good.

Molly Murtagh

I ordered the GF pizza that came up as “Gluten Free Pizza Spot” on DoorDash. I hoped if they’re advertising GF it would be good. Instead it was rubbery and a little slimy.

RULES! So many rules. No cash, cannot bring in your starbucks coffee, etc.. but food was really good. I had the cheeseburger well done (not today, E.Coli) but it was very dry. They must use very lean meat.. but it was still very tasty. We had a person in out party who was very gluten allergic, and they took excellent care in preparation of her food. So definitely give this place a try!

Elizabeth Morgan

Their gluten free hot honey avocado toast is so heavenly. :)

Nicole Kelley

Really good food and great gluten free pancakes 🥞 😋

Let's start with parking....there isn't any to speak of around the building. The few spots available are always taken. The parking lot in the back of the building is for chefs and the likes. Parking garages are within 5 minutes of walking, and Whole Foods validates if you make a purchase (we did). We had made a reservation, so being seated was fast. The wait staff was pleasant enough and helpful in making menu selections. Follow-up could have been better. The atmosphere was outdated and lacking. The floors looked worn and in need of better maintenance. I ordered gluten-free vegan and was impressed by the corn tortillas. The plate lacked freshness and color (personal opinion). Didn't eat much off my plate. My companion ordered a dish with potatoes, and they were "frosted" with salt. I always check the restroom for cleanliness, and it was well-taken care of. Check out the porcelain units in the restroom as they are interesting (not a complaint). I really expected more from a food celebrity (if your name is associated with the restaurant, you own the praise or criticism) on a well-known food network, and for these reasons, we had to ch*p you.

I came in a few days ago with a group of friends for a birthday. We were sat with Trey. From the start he was a vibrate human who took care of everyone's needs. I appreciated that he asked if there were any allergy concerns as my friend has celiac. He was able to put together food options for her. He also recommended a beautiful bottle of Chardonnay to go with all of our meals. Bethany the restaurant manager stopped by our table to wish us a Happy Birthday and to make sure our time and service was exceptional. As a local -- this place is somewhere I would absolutely return. Trey also let us know about their happy hour specials they offer. As someone who likes a good cocktail & oyster selection, it was much appreciated. Thank you everyone!!!

Can’t say enough about our server Sarah. She was a delight . Friendly , smart , attentive and she made accommodations for my husband who has gluten restrictions . The chef made steak sauce from scratch and Sarah made it happen for me to make a full meal out of my favorite appetizer shrimp scampi . Plus the shrimp was very fresh . If I could give 20 stars , I would . Exceptional experience after a tiring long day of graduation . Class act all the way . Highly recommend this place .

Maria Fernanda

I paid $30 for the egg plate. Im gluten free so I asked to replace the biscuit with something else. Any option I picked I had to pay for the side extra. It was $4.50 for the salad on the picture. This place does not accomodate for gluten free allergies.

Chloe Kampe

The food was excellent! Tried their winter menu creations and were blown away! Jazmine our server was very accommodating with my celiac disease in finding foods to have. The only part that I wasn’t a huge fan of was the very loud music.

True Renew

This restaurant is incredible. We ordered 3 incredible gluten free vegan pizzas from Serenity Pizza (in the same location) and a beautiful Cobb salad from Copper Branch. The gf pizza crust was perfect. Not the cardboard gf pizza crust we have had elsewhere. Our kids absolutely loved it, especially our daughter who has a wheat and egg allergy. And our 6 year old wiped out on the sidewalk, and the very present woman who served us got out her first aid kit and gloves and dressed his wounds. They gave us ice and comfort. The “park ambassador” Patricia across the street came with bandaids too and even got our son a vegan cookie. Wow. So grateful we found this place. They really care.

Hello Darling

Gluten free dreams come true here! Great service, incredible ambiance and vibe! Steak tartar was delicious, filet mignon was perfect and juicy sauce! Best gluten free dessert I have ever had in my life, went back the following day to get the dessert again, they just weren’t serving it at the time I went it! Will be making a trip back just to eat here✨

Reece McDevitt

Nice and gluten free bread!

Lexi Persons

Had such a wonderful experience here! Food, staff, ambiance, and everything was outstanding. Our waitress Beth made our time there even more enjoyable! I have a gluten allergy and they were able to easily accommodate. Highly recommend!

Kat H.
