This place is awesome! the gluten free bolognese is incredible and they made a dairy free substitution for my allergies!!

A true Charlotte institution. It never gets old and the atmosphere is dreamy. The burgers are elevated. There are lots of fresh foods to choose from and they also have a variety of vegan and gluten free options. Maybe the best restaurant in Charlotte!

Delicious safe gluten free food. Burger had THE BEST GF bun I have ever had. Alexis who helped us order was knowledgeable and went out of her way to make sure I had a safe dining experience.

I have found myself here multiple times since I found this place. Not only are the employees and service wonderful, if you have to be gluten free this place is the jackpot! It allows you to enjoy a burger without missing gluten in the slightest. The gluten free buns are soft and delicious and they made sure to tell me the fries are not gluten free as well. Would 100% recommend this place to anyone looking to enjoy a burger and milkshake!

The Gluten Free pizza is phenomenal. Probably top 3 in Charlotte, if not, number 1. With that being said, the service was very bad. We arrived at 5:15 and the hostess was very nice and seated us and made room for our baby. About a minute later, our server, Anthony came to the table. He asked if we wanted anything to drink and we just said water and he said he would come back. Well 25 minutes later my wife had to get up to find him so that we could order. Once we placed the order it took another 30 for the food to come out. We chose to eat before 5:30 since we were out with a baby and it was empty at that time. We never got an apology or anything. You can’t deny how great the pizza is, but the service was terrible this time.

Best burger and gluten free bun!

Had a delicious burger and slaw for lunch. They offer gluten free buns. They do not have a dedicated fryer, so no fried foods are safe. Gluten free sushi is marked on the menu or you can crate your own.

What a cool spot! The sandwich was perfectly made, loved the flavor and crunch combination and I couldn't tell it was gluten free, best bun I've had in a while! The place is a bit loud but the design is amazing and so unique 😍

Legion Brewing South Park location has a whole gluten free menu. The southwest salad and bbq sandwich are my favorites for lunch + dinner. They make an amazing monte cristo & always have a lot of local ingredients. We bring all guests who come in town here because of the variety of options and knowledgeable staff.

I was told that a bread was gluten free that they used on a burger, that it was from a bakery in town. I looked up the bakery and found that they are not really gluten free. Then when I asked further, found out it's sourdough with gluten free starter (I had already had the sandwich with what I thought was gluten free bread). I was told by the manager that if I have celiac I shouldn't eat it but if I'm sensitive to gluten it's ok. That doesn't make sense if indeed there is white flour in the bread. I am sensitive to gluten and have to go to the emergency room if I eat gluten. If the item is not gluten free, please don't tell people it's gluten free. By definition gluten free is wheat (including all purpose), rye and barley. They could not tell me what the ingredients are in the bread. Please see the following I got off the internet about "gluten starter": "While the natural bacteria may make it easier to digest, it doesn't render it gluten-free. If you have celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, be sure that you use gluten-free flour for the starter and gluten-free ingredients for all of the baked goods you plan to use your gluten-free sourdough starter in." I took an gluten free enzyme pill when I got home. Hope it works. It didn't work. I am sensitive to gluten and got very sick. Had to be in the emergency room. BEWARE GLUTEN SENSITIVE OR CELIAC, THEY ARE CLAIMING A BREAD IS GLUTEN FREE AND IT IS NOT. THE MANAGER WOULDN"T EVEN LISTEN TO ME

The food was ok. Burger was very tasty but not very big. Was happy to get a burger on a gluten free bun! Staff were great.

Looking for a specialty burger and pub restaurant with indoor outdoor seating and great service in an exclusive area in Ballantyne? Boom. Recommend the signature items but you can build your own too! From pancake covered bacon to gluten free or meat optional items, get the Angus beef or Buffalo burgers for outstanding deliciousness. The banana pudding is Devine, the fried pickles are full slices with perfect breading and the sliders are yummilicious. Expect great service and to wait for a table since its always busy.

I recently had the chance to experience Ted’s Montana Grill in Waverly as a hosted guest, and this scratch-made kitchen delivers on flavor. Ted’s is a smaller national chain with about 38 locations, but they focus on quality ingredients and an elevated take on American comfort food. Bison is the star of the show. I started with a tasting of several appetizers and complementary house pickles. While Ted’s isn’t a seafood spot, they still served up a solid St. Phillip’s Island Crab Cake. It had minimal filler, which I appreciated, but I prefer a lumpier texture and a bigger portion. That said, this is a meat restaurant, so let them shine with their strengths. The Bison Nachos were dangerously good. They are gluten-free and absolutely smothered in cheese and bison meat. I had to pace myself because I knew more food was coming, but these could easily be a meal on their own. The Grilled Shrimp on Ciabatta was another great starter. The shrimp were plump and juicy, seasoned with Ted’s proprietary blend, and served on garlic-toasted ciabatta with lemon compound butter. I normally do not like cauliflower, but the Cauliflower Fritters completely won me over. These cheesy, crispy bites were incredibly addicting. I kept going back for more. This dish is a chef’s special, so it is not always on the menu, but if you see it, order it. Ted’s is known for its bison burgers, so I had to try a couple. The Smash Burger is a limited-time chef’s special available until March 16, 2025. It comes with American cheese, spicy pickles, and a scratch-made ranch onion dip. The flavor was spot on, but I prefer a little more caramelization and crispy edges on my smash burgers. I would still order it again. The Canyon Creek Burger takes things up a notch with cheddar cheese, bacon, jalapeño, blackberry jam, and a fried egg. The combination of smoky, sweet, and spicy flavors worked well together. The onion rings that came with it were some of the best I have had. Ted’s excels in bison dishes, and the Bison Short Ribs were a standout. The bones slid out clean, and the meat was incredibly tender. It came with mashed potatoes, broccoli, and a house roll for the perfect comfort meal. The Bison Filet was another highlight. I ordered it medium rare, and it was cooked perfectly. Bison has a richer, slightly sweeter taste than beef, and this filet was exceptionally tender. I paired it with carrots and asparagus, which balanced the richness nicely. I always save room for dessert, the Kahlua Fudge Brownie which was served hot from the oven with vanilla ice cream. I could have eaten five of these. No notes, just perfection. I was also told to try the Apple Pecan Crisp which was full of warm spiced fall flavors, with a buttery oat and pecan topping over tart Granny Smith apples. If you love cozy desserts, get this before it rotates off the menu for strawberry season. Ted’s Montana Grill has something for everyone. They are great at accommodating allergies, so let your server know and they will work directly with the chef. They also offer mocktails and non-alcoholic beverages, which is a nice touch. Next time you are in Waverly, you will probably find me at Ted’s.

I’m gluten free and they handle it perfectly. When one of my party members ordered a regular and everybody else ordered gluten free they came out and made sure there wasn’t a typo. Then when we were handed our food they put the gluten free and regular in different bags and told us. Best Customer Service EVER.

We only had 2 slices of cheese, but it was divine! The gluten-free with strawberries had half the calories and was so good! My husband had the upside down pineapple 🍍 and it was as tall as the to go container. Calories twice as much as the gluten-free.

Always a good experience. GF notation on menu, gf bun offered with burger that comes out separate with the other food. They minimize cross contamination as much as possible. Fries are noted gf…I have never had an issue eating them. Been told they have dedicated frier but they do offer fried chicken so not 100%.

André Schleich

I Must eat gluten free. Thats why I Took the Cheeseburger with the glutenfree bun. Taste was good and I had no reaction:)

Amber Easterling

They do offer GF buns for the burgers, but there is a high risk of cross contamination and the fries are cooked in the same fryer as other foods. Its hard to even talk to someone about your order because you order from a screen.

Lauren Welch

amazing food and great atmosphere! our waiter was unfortunately rude and said he would accept our coupon but didn’t apply it after we asked twice. loved the gluten free options!

Curtis B

Had gluten free buns!!!

Jeanne M

Best lunch/brunch in the area! The grilled chicken & halloumi was fabulous. Lots of gluten free options to boot. Sarah sat us quickly in exactly the table we wanted. Coco was a wonderfully helpful and friendly server. We will definitely be back!

These guys are great! First, we had a 2 hour flight delay and were a little frazzled. We decided to try them even the there was alarge line. Totally worth it! My wife forgot to specify gluten free bum and we didn't realize our mistake until after 5 minutes. When I let them know they jumped all over it to make sure my wife was safe. The food was great!! I really appreciate the extra effort they made for usa Also, dedicated fryer for their delicious smash fries! Really helped turn a bad situation around for us!

Amber Easterling

Great gluten free options!! Everything GF is noted on their menu, but most of their sandwiches can also be made GF with their delicious gluten free bread!
