This is an amazing restaurant! Great for a date night! They offer gluten-free pizza cooked in a separate oven and GF pasta cooked in separate water. We got the prosciutto board with gluten-free bread and the Spicy Soppressata pizza. It was absolutely amazing!!!

All pizza is prepared in flour, I asked if they could make it on tin foil and she said all surfaces are covered in flour there would be cross contamination. Disappointed. No good for true celiac allergy.

Went for dinner with a group of friends while visiting Charleston. We ordered a lot of different items - all were flavorful and paced well so we didn’t have too many plates on the table at once. The service was fantastic. The gluten free dessert was surprisingly delicious. Off street parking was a plus.

if you’re looking for the best chips and guacamole in town, you gotta check this place out! The guacamole is incredibly fresh and packed with flavor, and the warm, crispy chips are perfect. Honestly, it is the best I have ever had. While I am not sure where they source their ingredients, you can truly taste the quality. The owner is a total sweetheart, making the whole atmosphere of the place very welcoming. You can tell she genuinely cares about her customers, which is so nice. Do not skip the tacos—they are just as amazing and definitely worth a try! They are also extremely considerate of dietary restrictions. My friend with celiac found plenty of options, making it very easy for us to order. They have a fantastic selection of nonalcoholic beverages that pairs perfectly with the food. All in all, this spot has won me over, and I cannot wait to go back for more deliciousness. Highly recommended!

We stopped here on a weekday night during a roadtrip and the food was DELICIOUS! We sat outside and felt really welcomed by the staff with our two kids. I am dairy and gluten free and the waiter was very helpful helping us pick out what to order. We ordered a newer fish dish with pork rinds and peanuts that was an absolute must. I’ll be dreaming of that dish!! We also enjoyed a beef stir fry. It was perfectly smoky and they used their spices and garnishes so well. Highly recommend and hope we find ourselves back here to dine again!

They accommodate gluten free! Their grouper cheeks entree was probably some of the best, fresh, and filling thing I’ve had in a very long time dinning out. Staff was amazing and friendly.

What a great little casual spot to grab a quick bite! Fresh veggies, meat, and plenty of gluten free options—without trying to do too much. The staff were friendly and responsive and the food came quickly. The toasted banh mi with five spice pork was especially delicious on a cooler day.

First and probably last time I'll go. Sushi was decent and elote was good. But all the other Mexican food felt very off, crazy salty and all seasoned exactly the same way. I appreciated the various gluten free options, but for the price and frustration of a small place with loud music, probably not a place I'll frequent.

Amazing food!!! The owner was so sweet and we got to try a free sample of vegan lasagna. The sandwich was amazing, it was a spin off of porchetta, they serve it on focaccia but I got mine on gluten free bread! It’s mostly a grab and go place but we were able to eat at a small bistro table there.

Just picked up our take out order and I had to provide feedback. The hostess greeted me very politely and immediately went to the kitchen to check on my order. She came back to me and said I’m sorry, we don’t have any gluten free buns for the burger and offered a substitute. 9/10 times we experience the restaurant throwing a regular bun on the burger and pushing the order out without saying anything. Thank you for this level of service, it seems so small and minor but really meant a lot to me and family. Btw the food was excellent! Grouper fish tacos, (2) single burgers, nachos and queso. Thank you Fuel team!

The staff was extremely rude with my allergy restrictions. I simply asked if something had gluten in it (because if I consumed gluten I would end up in the hospital) and they laughed at me and said “I don’t know” and walked away, went to another worker and they literally laughed again. Absolutely disgusting behavior. Terrible service and awful people working here
