It's really hard to eat out when you have Celiac Disease but this place has a dedicated gluten-free waffle maker and they are cautious about cross-contamination. The food was amazing and the customer service was above and beyond! My new favorite place!

We had a private dinner in the back room for a work event with about 25 people, many from out of the state. Billy was fabulous to work with while planning the event and Caitlin our waitress was fantastic. I would highly recommend Room 38 to anyone who needs a casual and fun space to get together. Food was great and drinks even better! I have celiacs, so I am unable to eat gluten, and the staff answered all of my questions and I felt very safe eating here. I will be back next time I visit Columbia for sure!

Hoo boy. My French toast was moldy, my hash browns had black stuff from a dirty grill, and my second round of hash browns was bitter. My wife ordered off the gluten free menu and explained to the waitress that she was Celiac. The waitress, who had no idea what Celiac was said "it's ok, I accept you!" She was brought bacon that had been fried in a fryer with gluten, and was clearly hours old. Edit: after we told the manager (one of three present) about the moldy French toast, she said the mold was just a blueberry. At least one of the three managers should have been keeping an eye on the dirty grill, the moldy food, and the gluten cross contamination. The manager didn't charge us for our food and offered us $5 off coupons for the next time. We're not coming back.

Our server was great and helpful. They have gluten free options for those with celiac. The fries are cooked in the same fryer as breaded things so the fries are off limits unfortunately, but there’s plenty to choose from.

Ozark Mountain Biscuit and Bar has fast become a family favorite—with something for everyone. The salads are fresh and delicious, and the chicken sandwich is so good. It’s hard to choose what to order! I love the attention to detail on the homemade condiments and extras, and the gluten-free cornbread is amazing. A local treasure! Edited to add that the burger gets the distinction of “one of the best burgers I’ve ever had” from a teenager who is somewhat of a burger connoisseur.

So much unique food, so tasty, so beautiful! The food is always exactly as pictured. It's fresh, quality ingredients. I love getting the Salmon Lover Bowl, but I like getting the nachos too when I'm feeling bad. Sushi Burritos and Rolled Ice Cream?! How cool is that. A great gluten free place because almost nothing has gluten in it!

We went to Panera after a long afternoon at the hospital and cancer associates. I hadn't had lunch, and was feeling weak and hungry. They had a delicious "warm bowl" that was just what the doctor ordered. I was grateful to find something I could eat, because I have multiple food allergies, including gluten, tomatoes, and yeast. I'd give it 5 stars if there had been more choices I wasn't allergic to.

This is currently my favorite restaurant in Columbia. The food is delicious, and the people are so friendly and helpful. There are lots of vegetarian options and dishes made with rice or rice noodles for folks who need to avoid gluten. The ingredients are fresh and of good quality, and the food is well-packaged (doesn’t leak, and they don’t package in styrofoam anymore, so even very hot food doesn’t melt it). I really can’t say enough good things about this place. PS The tofu soup is one of the most amazingly delicious soups I’ve ever had.
