GLUTEN FREE PANCAKES!!!!!!

Kollen Marchant

The environment was cool. The art is for sale (kind of expensive) the waiter was great. They have gluten free options.

Hemingway's has been safe for me to eat at. They have limited (think Well seasoned chicken skewers, lentil soup, and blackened fish of the day) gluten free options, but being Celiac in Melbourne makes any place with quality cuisine a repeat.

We went here for our anniversary and the small touches to make it special, did make it special. Kacey was our waitress and she was just amazing, really appreciated her attentiveness in general, and with all my gluten related questions (they have a great GF menu). All around excellent evening with a great atmosphere and amazing food, we could not be more happy with our first time experience at the Chart House.

They have a nice weather protected outdoor area. I can bring the dogs to. The food is great, all kinds of regular diner offerings with a nice twist. Very easy to eat gluten-free.

I have my daughter and her friend here for spring break and Sunday we headed to Backwater for brunch! We sat outside on a cute patio and Chelsea was our waitress. She was very attentive made great suggestions on what we may like for food and for drinks. My daughter is gluten-free so she ordered the pancakes and said they were absolutely delicious. I had the breakfast sandwich on the Cuban garlic bread that Chelsea had suggested and it was absolutely mouthwatering. When the gal came out to deliver it to me, she said you’re going to fall in love and she was right. It was exactly what we needed to kick off their visit to Florida. I will definitely be going back and trying some of the other menu items that look delicious. If you’re in the neighborhood, you’ll definitely have to stop by for a fantastic dining experience.

Waited an hour for our food and our order wasn't right. I have a gluten allergy and this could have been bad if my celiac was really bad. Was very disappointed in the service because the food is really good and our first experience was good but not this time around. Very unhappy and the waitress couldn't reach her manager. Not good.

Tina Travels

Limited gluten free options (I also can't eat eggs) but the quinoa bowl was pretty tasty (minus the egg topper). The atmosphere is like most chain restaurants, nothing to write home about. The patio is a nice option. Our waitress was absent most of the time, too the point another server noticed and checked on us, but that can happen anywhere.

Regina Vogt

Decided to try this for father's day since hubs fav food is pizza and we r all about local. Staff is friendly but... I had to ask for kids water, refills of water, beer and wine, after actually ordering. No crayons for child, so he was disappointed. I am gluten intolerant, Checked website b4 we made plans. Get there, no gf options, Very disappointing as everyone in family was ok, but me. Ordered smores pizza, after 15 min, baby was getting restless, walked around, seen pizza setting there, waited, waited, finally asked if I could just deliver myself. There were at least 6 employees, 4 tables max when we came in. 2 hrs for our experience. Not happy, don't want to bash, but none of us will return. Sad bc we really wanted to support this family.the flavor of pizza was great, other than chic alfredo, no one liked the chicken

Lisa Day

Excellent food! I ordered a corned beef sandwich on a gluten free bun. It came with sauerkraut,stone ground mustard and coleslaw. I also ordered an iced tea. It was the first time I was there and I hope to go back

My husband and I just discovered this place. The ambiance is beautiful. Al fresco at its best! Food was delicious. Our server was warm, friendly, sharp, and attentive. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because of the french fries. My husband said said they were definitely frozen and overprocessed and tasted like plastic. He loves fries and he did not eat them.The fries do not match up with the freshness and wonderful quality of the rest of the food or the upscale ambiance. Hopefully, they are working on serving a much better product. I was also very appreciative that they can accommodate gluten free diets as I am gluten intolerant. Great place to eat, but we do not recommend the fries.

Candace E

The food was delicious. They even had a small and medium gluten free pizza option (not its obviously cooked in the same kitchen with everything else so not entirely safe for those with celiac but it was great to see the choice). Service was fast and friendly. Two people at our table got wings and said they were delicious (plain and sweet chili).

Nancy Jacobson

Sea bass was very good ... chef accommodated my food allergies ... would love for them to offer a gluten free pasta!!

Kristine R

Laurie was very attentive to my gluten sensitivity, I appreciated the gf options., And the bbq brisket burger my husband ordered was fabulous thanks to her suggestion to swap in the bison burger! Great food and great service overall! I just wish Florida was warmer tonight so we could fully enjoy the patio.

Roseann Cryer

I was bummed after going here. It looked fun and the food looked good. It was so loude I could not even talk and could not hear the waitress. I kept asking her to speak again. The food was good but not what the menu said it was. The waitress said everything is made in house. I am Gluten free so when she returned I asked if the GF Buns are made in house since most commercially made are no good. She then tells me none of the bread is made in house. When 5 minutes before she told me everything is made in the kitchen. Sadly we will not return. I was very disappointed.

Jess P

Food was delicious! Plenty of gluten free options. Prices are a bit high, and I can’t find an updated menu online. Definitely organic, fresh, & delicious food, very healthy.

Joel McDaniel

Great staff. Food came out quick. Wife was able to have a gluten free sandwich!!

Veronica “Vee” Dee

I haven't been to an IHOP in more than a decade because I have a gluten sensitivity. My friend wanted IHOP so I figured I'd have to watch him eat pancakes. Our incredible server, Stewart (yes that's the correct spelling) told me that IHOP HAS GLUTEN FREE PANCAKES! They are cooked on the same grill but it's a dry grill and they will wipe it down. I cannot tell you how happy I am! I got to have fluffy, tasty pancakes that did not cause a reaction. And Stewart was the best waiter I've had in a long time. He was attentive without being annoying, he was just as sweet as he could be and anticipated our needs at every turn. He should be working at a fine dining restaurant but he's just so damn personable I don't know that I would want to let him go. Breakfast was exactly how I asked for it with dry scrambled eggs, everything was spot on, Delivered timely and again, Stewart is an absolute treasure. This location is at the entrance of the Brevard Zoo so stop by, have brekkie AND ASK TO SIT IN STEWART'S SECTION

Alanna Dixon

We had a fantastic experience! Our waitress was incredibly patient and understanding when it came to accommodating our gluten-free dietary needs. She took the time to ensure everything was safe and even made recommendations. On top of that, the food was absolutely delicious! Highly recommend for anyone looking for great food and excellent service!

D Rich

Excellent place with breathtaking views of the water. You can get great views sitting inside or outside. Gluten/soy/dairy free items for me and tasty meat dishes for the hubs. Changing table in the women’s bathroom. One of our fav places for lunch or dinner.

Sergio Duarte

My kids love this place, and my wife has a gluten allergy, so they acomodate her needs.

delphine geraci

Oysters on the half shelf were so-so. Mojito too sweet. Staff very friendly. No gluten free or vegan options. Wondering what the key in the ceiling is for.

Jennifer M Santos

Food was okay. Called to see about shellfish allergy options. I was assured I could eat from their gluten-free menu, when I arrived and read the gluten free menu there is a disclaimer stating they can not guarantee there isn’t cross contamination. Thankfully, no reaction but was a little disappointed about the potential risk.

R P

Their (naturally gluten-free) macarons are out-of-this-world amazing! I might have to take up exercising just so I can keep eating them! Their other two GF options included meringue cookies and creme brûlée, which also looked delicious!

Marc Sing

Love this place!!!! Food and service are both great!!!! My wife has Celiac and had no reaction! Ate the chips, salsa, guacamole, queso and the arroz con pollo

Laura

Apocalypse has amazing coffee and a super cool space and atmosphere. Their coffee is some of the best in Brevard County. Their food hasn’t super blown me away but it’s still pretty good and I really appreciate the variety, as well as the gluten free options. The employees are always nice. The only issue is the lack of parking during busy times and lack of seating inside, but I suppose it’s a testament to their popularity. Regardless I love this place and can’t wait for their new location to open up!

Megan Meeks

We had Mother’s Day tea with a group of 6. We booked last minute and they were able to accommodate. They were so kind and fun and the food was great. They easily accommodated my 7 year old niece and my gluten free sister. The tea was actually amazing and it was so relaxing. Can’t wait to go back for lunch! If parking is hard, there’s a lot behind the Henegar center about 3 minute walk.

Breckard Ulstrand

Went as part of a party with 8 people for lunch. The place was clean and the service was friendly. The menu ranged from $13 or $15 for sandwiches (including burgers and chicken) to $30ish for steaks and some of the higher end fish dishes. The salads looked good and the other dishes I saw looked good too. There were gluten free options on the menu, and there was the option to exchange any protien with beyond meats. I had the Buffalo chicken sandwich. The Buffalo sauce was delicious, it was sweet with enough heat that didn't over power the other flavors. The fries were good and crisp. The chicken in the sandwich wasn't rubbery. Overall, I liked it. Would go again.

Fishing around? This place is right on the water. You can walk the dock and look at boats, sit outside, or enjoy the huge oval bar inside. My friend has a gluten tolerance. The server took her time and went over multiple items that would be gluten friendly. We sat outside ordered fish dip (not GF) and scallops and bacon (GF). Meal was Jack Daniels salmon. I had the sauce put on the side since it contains gluten. Food was excellent, presentation was great. Overall good experience. Also this is the actual menu.

PATRICIA TORSIELLO

Great service and food and Gluten Free!!

Andrew Calloway

Jonathan Meyer

Great food and service. Harley was amazing. Also, it has great gluten free options. They even have a dedicated fryer. A++

I had the trophy wife out for a shopping spree downtown and we needed to refresh the engines with some gluten free fuel. We had heard about Fiesta and decided to grab lunch there. We were greeted warmly by Sam and seated quickly. Sam did a great job explaining the menu for us and filling us in on how all the food is handmade and same for their sauces. I got the fish bowl with yum sauce on the side. My wife got the steak bowl with mango curry lime sauce on top. The bowls have generous portions and we brought home leftovers! Try the orange mojito too!

Jeff L

Killer vegan grilled cheese with tomato on gluten free bread. If you get bored of the limited vegan options you find out there try their amazing vegan grilled cheese. Perfectly melted vegan cheese was just amazing. I also saw a vegan chili on the menu to try next time. They grilled the gluten free bread I chose perfectly. Mix it up and try this place out. Highly recommend.

Updated allergy menu means daughter can now eat breakfast here. Manager even came out to doublecheck allergies (gluten and dairy free). Server was great.

Bj

My friend and I were very impressed with this restaurant. Our server recommended an appetizer that was so delicious (fried rice balls, stuffed with cheesy broccoli). We also tried one of their gluten-free flatbreads, which was fantastic. The salmon that we added to our Caesar salad, was cooked to perfection. We thought the prices were reasonable.

Judi Shell

Great breakfast food. Even had a menu for me that was gluten free. Coffee is the best!! Service staff was friendly and efficient! 🎄❤️

Ben Hough

Buffet and all you can eat style eatery. There is a hot grill, home style food, a sandwich bar, salad bar and pleanty of desserts and ice cream with all the toppings. Best of all it is open to the public! Also on select Thursdays throughout the school year they do an international dinner and tonight happens to be Africa. Always something new and different. There are also vegetarian and gluten free options. I have never had anything bad. Include it in a night out.

Mike Lopez

Stopped in for breakfast looking for a smoothie. Ended up with a gluten free wrap (breakfast burrito) that was delicious. Will definitely be back.

Laura Buchan

Beautiful waterfront restaurant and bar overlooking the river. We visited for Sunday brunch and sat out on the deck. My husband ordered the burger topped with a crab cake, and I had a breakfast skillet (modified to suit gluten-free requirements). Both were so delicious, we washed them down with some cocktails. The service was exceptional, and we're excited to return and try out their dinner menu. Great local spot!

stephen kishel

Gluten free buckwheat crepes are perfect

L Mo

The menu and a sign at the cashier boldly state that gluten-free wraps are available. When I asked two staff what they were made of, they didn’t know. They DID say there was flour in them. When I said if they have flour, then they’re not gluten-free, they stared at me blankly. A friend ordered an egg sandwich in the “gluten-free wrap” and it was a tiny portion, maybe enough food for a small child. I had an iced matcha latte which was not strong enough. The chairs are rock hard, certainly not made for hanging out. 2 small couches in the back.
