We really enjoyed our experience at this Fogo de Chao. We were enjoying a day in downtown Fort Lauderdale and decided to stop by for a late lunch. The bar was full of food and the meat was cooked great. The best part of the experience was the attentiveness of the gauchos, but especially Nelson. It almost felt like it was his place and he was excited for us to try the meats he cooked. Fantastic customer service. My fiancé and I are looking forward to our next lunch time at this location. I highly recommend! Ps. They also had some great gluten free options for celiacs.

We visited on a whim on a business trip and had a fantastic visit. Delicious Sushi, Delicious Thai Cuisine, amazing service (I believe her name was Shannon?) she made me feel safe/seen immediately by taking my order and immediately bringing gluten free soy sauce to the table.🩶 it was so good I ordered it to go the next night, saved a roll and ate it on my plane ride home! Definitely worth the stop. Celiac Safe/Gluten Free options available 🥰

I am gluten free and never can find so many options than I could at OL’DAYS. I was so happy with my meal, I felt emotional. I had gluten free avocado toast with scrambled eggs. I also split vegan gluten free banana bread with my husband and we were truly blown away. It was so moist and flavorful. Valentina was a delight to have and added to our wonderful experience.

I had a wonderful time here with my mother. Thank you Anna for dealing with all my modifications and special requests since I am vegan and gluten free. Highly recommend this place and request Anna :)

We stopped by YOLO for a family celebration and it was spot-on from start to finish. The vibe is upbeat and classy, with a menu full of creative dishes and solid gluten-free options, our server knew them all. Definitely recommend making a reservation, this spot’s a South Florida gem!

Chimney house was my best restaurant experience in quite some time. It is located in the quaint and historical Sailboat Bend neighborhood of Fort Lauderdale. The indoor seating has the warm ambiance of a home and the outdoor seating has plenty of natural and fan breeze to keep you comfortable and is covered. The service was warm and efficient. My wife and I each had a beer and an entree and with a 20 percent tip it came to under $60. I ordered the tempeh, (I was impressed that they offered it). It came with rice, black beans, sweet plantains and homemade salsa. The portion was so generous I couldn't even order a second beer or dessert. Everything was fresh and authentic. As a matter of fact I saw an employee leave and return a bit later with boxes of fresh garden vegetables. There were many gluten free offerings. There was a good selection of beer and cocktails. I would give 6 stars but 5 is the highest available. This is one of the few restaurants that I've visited lately that I know I'm going back to.

Despite having reservations, our group of 9 still had a wait of almost 1 hour. No Gluten friendly menu and the poor waiter was not familiar with gluten-free options. Atmosphere is only at the bar otherwise subpar. The food was not worth the wait. Sometimes a name is just that a name.

I ordered a pizza to go. I have a severe gluten allergy. I was so excited to eat this pizza. I was clear that I wanted a gluten free pizza. I was given water and next thing I know the pizza came out very fast. I get home and the pizza was absolutely not gluten free. Not one bit. This is extremely disappointing and unacceptable! I ate this pizza and was extremely sick and will be for days due to the lack of understanding and diligence this establishment showed. Do not eat here!

I came here for a networking event that was in a private room. The service was excellent, before I went into the room the waiter asked me if I wanted something to drink, besides the wine they were serving in the room. They had a nice assortment of food for us, cheese flatbreads, vegan burgers, hamburger sliders, asparagus, sauteed mushrooms, and my favorite gluten-free pizza (which was labeled). The atmosphere always has a happy buz to it.

Nice restaurant overlooking the yachts and boats. Great drinks and dinner specials. Lots of seafood options. Three kinds of lobster. Many items are gluten free or can be adjusted. So glad we could walk to it from our hotel.

First time and definitely going back. Visually it's an elegant place but not stuffy. Our waiter Hernando was personable and profesional. He guided us from the appetizers to the desserts, not one was bad. The 20 oz Ribeye was AMAZING, flavourful and juicey; better than any fine dinning steakhouse. The gluten free blueberry dessert with vanilla ice cream was hands down the best, light and tasteful. .

Great atmosphere and food! Had the shrimp tacos which were delicious. The gluten free dumplings were great as well.
