Everything was wonderful. They were able to work with our food allergies without issue. They accommodated gluten free, nut free, and even a garlic free guest! Room is beautiful, staff was on top of everything, would definitely recommend.

So I have autoimmune disease called Celiac Disease and that means gluten and me do not get along at all. This place has great gluten free reviews and was super excited coming here. Well now I am about ready to lose my mind. I asked my usual questions concerning gluten free items and preparations for their food/drinks. I ordered a CIDER and got served a BEER without hesitation. This is actually absurd. When somebody asks you about gluten free items and safety precautions and then immediately within 2 minutes get served a gluten containing item, it’s just actually ridiculous. The server was apologetic and kind but not knowing the difference between beer and cider is disheartening.

We dined at Barcelona Wine Bar for Independence Day and were served by Ashley and Conner. We called early in the afternoon to check on reservations, but were assured we could probably walk in with no wait. The patio quickly filled after we were seated by a manager. Service was attentive and courteous throughout. We enjoyed burrata, lamb chops, chicken thigh, haricot verts and the Branzino entree. Each dish was rich with flavor and beautifully presented. As a celiac, it means a lot that our servers were versed on proper protocol. Pesto for the burrata was served on the side, as it was cross contaminated with the bread previously on the flat-top, for example. We were warned at the beginning of service that entrees would take a little while. Our wait between tapas and entrees must have been longer than usual for the establishment. We were asked if there were any other tapas we would like while the Branzino was being prepared. Taken by complete surprise managers comped both our hericot verts and the entree. Although we would have no complaints paying for both as we understand from the FOH perspective. Fantastic job by all! We will be back!

Service and food were great! My only disappointment is that HQ is changing their menu and taking several items off including one of my favorite gluten free foods…street noodles.

I love popping in to Centro for lunch. Great, quick service, and reliably awesome food. The flautas and tacos are my favorites - and they even have a gluten free fried chicken taco which is so so good!

Enjoyed it again and again. Service and food is still excellent!! 👌 definitely recommend. Sat on the rooftop again. Have also been inside. Inside is more lively and rooftop day or night is nice and calm more relaxed up there making it more comfortable. Also great for larger parties Staff: nice, friendly. Good service is super important. Food: we go here enough and it's always very good. More authentic and flavorful Greek food. We had this time The trio of all 3 spreads- comes with alot of pita slices (can get gluten free) which is great. Dinner : Chicken Mykonos (comes with pasta but substituted for rice) was delicious Also have had the Souvlaki Platters. Gluten free: Can substitue the pasta for rice. So if that's your thing you can make it work with many dishes. Price: for the quality it's worth it. More authentic and better ingredients Exactly what you would expect from a better experience.

I found my new go-to spot! I'm looking for healthy spots to eat (mainly gluten free and dairy free options). The food at Happy & Hale is not only healthy and meets my dietary needs but it's also SO DELICIOUS! Everyone working at this location is extremely friendly and makes you feel really welcome and at home. I met the owner and he's super friendly as well! Try JP's gluten free desserts - you will not be disappointed!

Joesph was absolutely amazing! I am gluten free and he was able to assure me that everything I ordered was safe for me to eat. He also just had a great vibe and made sure our group had a great night. 10/10 experience. Will definitely be back :)

A party of four went right before Christmas. Nice selection of gluten-free options for those who need to be careful. Marked on menu and server was knowledgeable. Had chips and queso (GF), Brick Oven Salmon (GF) and chicken alfredo. All were delicious. Nice atmosphere.

Absolutely love this spot for weekend brunches! So glad that the triangle a restaurant where most menu items can be made vegan. And their vegan and gluten free buckwheat crepes are stellar! Highly recommend!

After staying in Raleigh for the weekend, we were able to acclimate to the food climate in the downtown area and overall very impressed with the options. Our visit to heirloom was for brunch, it is in a nice location with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, as well as bike racks. The Japanese omelet over rice was an incredible dish that satisfied the morning appetite. The sauce was salty and sweet and complemented the kewpie mayo and egg perfectly. Such an incredible dish that is so simple as well. The breakfast baguette was also a hit, great quality bread and the bacon was crispy and flavorful. Unfortunately, I was in the mood for a donut so I tried the mochi gluten free donut they had. This was the biggest mistake of my trip, it was the worst donut I’ve had the misfortune of putting in my mouth. The texture was so tough and the flavor was even worse. Stick to gluten donuts. I still give this place 5 stars since the main dishes were that good, cool place and decent price.

The front of house staff were very friendly but unfortunately there were hardly any gluten free options. The fryer (and all apps except one) were cross contaminated, and few entrees were exclusively gluten free even with modifications. Ended up with a burger (which was delicious), but no fries etc.

Ate with my sister, Madison was the absolute best! She helped my sister out with her gluten allergy. Everything was amazing!

Everyone here was super hospitable and the vibe was very romantic. We were seated immediately with our reservation, our server was so attentive and the chef brought us an apple swan, which was so sweet! The sushi rolls were so fresh and beautifully presented! I’m gluten free and they made sure to bring gluten free soy sauce! We had a wonderful experience:) Would recommend for a date night!

Service and food are always top tier here. Took a group of folks here around new years and they still talk about it - hummingbird has become their fav restaurant in raleigh. They have good gluten free options too. I’ve had huevos rancheros, the salmon gravlax, and the fish sandwich. Their potatoes also come with the most amazing sauce, it’s worth ordering on the side.
