Our family is traveling and I was so worried not knowing where was safe to eat. So I got this app recommended by an IG influencer and I am SO glad I did! This place is in Nashville TN and it was amazing! We all loved everything we got. The staff are very knowledgeable about to allergies and made me feel so safe and cared for! The GF bun is delicious! I got the grilled chicken sandwich, mayo and grilled pineapple! It was beyond delicious! The sweet potato fries were delicious also! I highly recommend for gluten and dairy allergies but would also say this they accommodate to a long list of allergies!

Was informed that the gluten free pizza isn’t gluten free based on being celiac safe. They cook pizza in shared oven with no pan underneath. Everything else on the menu not sure.

FANTASTIC pizza and wings! I am a complete cocktail snob and thoroughly enjoyed both cocktails. Fourth time in, and many, many more to go. Hugely recommend if gluten free, baked wings and gluten free pizza are amazing in their own respect and compared to nongluten free

Angel is the best part of coming to Mellow Mushroom ! She is very accommodating to our food needs as we can’t do garlic or onions ! The salads with champagne apple vinaigrette is the best ever My Gluten Free pizza was Yummy !😎

Mr. Crepe literally made our trip to Nashville. It's a rarity to find gluten-free (allergy) sweet treats that aren't ice cream or gross, dense cakes. The staff was so friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. They cleaned off the surfaces and made us fresh gluten free crepes. And they were AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS. thank you Mr. Crepe for the great experience! We'd love to come back and try the savory crepes too.

Great customer service. The food was absolutely delicious!! They have a gluten free pasta available and it was great. Can't wait to visit again!

I have Celiac Disease and first time checking out this bakery while 🛍 in Downtown Franklin...Got several gluten-free options and to my surprise, what YUMMY desserts! I personally got to ENJOY each of them with NO issues later, which is a HUGE win! Their Peanut Butter Chocolate Bomb was such a delight that it was the 💣 as left me wanting more! 😋 I will definitely be back and highly recommend to check out this gem! 👌

Elliott Franklin

Hogwood BBQ is a gem! Their commitment to quality shines through with no HFCS and gluten-free options. The flavors are outstanding, and their homemade BBQ sauces (both spicy and sweet) are a must-try. The friendly service makes every visit enjoyable, and we even trusted them with our Thanksgiving turkey – it was incredible! Highly recommend for any BBQ lover!

Taylor Gumm

Dinner at Puckett’s was awesome. I have celiac and they have a gluten free menu and clearly label what is fried in a shares fryer. Our server, Brian was super kind and helpful with me being gluten free as well. Thank you Brian and Pucketts team!

Daniel

Their gluten free options are great!

DR C

Went (with another couple) to this restaurant for the first time. Imaginative, delicious menu. The Caribbean patties (think empanadas) and Trini Roti Wrap were fantastic! The Lobster Pasta and Island Burger were also good. Their food is seed oil-free and fresh, with many gluten free options. Highly recommend!

Victoria Grace

Disappointed and underwhelmed. I was really looking forward to dining at Perry’s, but unfortunately, the experience just didn’t live up to the hype. I ordered the Chicken Primavera and was shocked when it arrived without any chicken—just spaghetti squash and vegetables. No explanation, no heads-up—just missing the main part of the dish. I’m also gluten-free and was told they’d be bringing out a gluten-free loaf, which sounded great... until a single slice of toasted white bread showed up. One slice. The service also left a lot to be desired. Our server was inattentive and hard to find throughout the meal, which just added to the overall frustration. For the price and reputation, I expected so much more. Definitely not the experience I was hoping for.

James Patton

This place is underrated and a hidden gem. The cowboy arepa was excellent, meat was perfect, flavor was phenomenal, and unlike some arepas I’ve had in the past, this one was not too greasy My wife got the empanada plate and absolutely loved it; they can also accommodate gluten free/celiac We will for sure be back here!

Nicole Rodgers

My gluten free meal was not prepared correctly. Luckily, I double checked fir eating and they remade.

Zoltan V

A hidden gem. Almost everything is dedicated gluten free minus the naan bread (check other random bread items)

Vickie Meseke

Love that they are so attune to dietary needs! Gluten Free@

Cheryl Jones

Apparently the focus is on profit over quality. One of my favorite items was the liver pate’ which was served in a jar with a side of pickled veggies and toast. Now it’s the equivalent of one chicken liver spread on 4 pieces of bread. If you are not into eating mostly cheap gluten carbs ie pizza, pasta, bread choose a better restaurant. So sad to loose another restaurant to budget cuts & unhealthy options. Italian doesn’t have to be only empty carbs. However,Alex was awesome!

Deborah Sarason

I tried this restaurant about a week ago when a woman's group met there. They have great martinis and a wonderful wine list by the glass. I was really impressed that they have a full gluten-free menu. Most restaurants have none. The service was good considering we had about 18 people there arriving at various times. I had a salmon Cesar and the salmon was cooked perfectly! And the Kim Crawford wine was excellent. Something I rarely see on menus. Portions were large and pricing was reasonable. Try it!

Ashley Broussard

Food and service was great. Coffee selections were plentiful. Gluten free bread/toast was excellent.

Wayne Jones

Great location and excellent attention to detail for Celiac, gluten free patrons

Tamra Peet

I got a medium Gluten free pizza and they let my friend and I make it half and half! The crust was amazing! I will definitely be going again!

Karen Corn

A huge shout out to our waiter, Victor! I have a lot of food allergies and he checked recipes and ingredients for me so thoroughly. When I declined biscuits because my husband and I are gluten free, he realized that my husband had ordered an entree which contained gluten and returned with a gluten free menu. Eating out can be very frustrating for someone with food allergies. Victor made our experience at Franklin Chop House a very pleasant one!

Ruby Jenkins

Great atmosphere and a wide variety of food that was all delicious. They offer Gluten Free and Vegan options as well. We really enjoyed our dinner.

Just ordered gluten free roti for parcel and it was very hard when ready to eat it after 15 mins … Not soft at all and broken….

Rosamargarita Mendoza

Exceptional experience! Tyler, the manager, went above and beyond to accommodate my gluten and dairy intolerance. His assistance in navigating the menu was invaluable. The French toast with gluten-free bread became my new favorite. Outstanding service and delicious options – definitely a 5-star experience!

Matt Smalley

The chicken was on point. A couple of people I ate lunch with asked about gluten/allergen information and the staff was very knowledgable while explaining the processes used in the restaurant for those diners with food allergies. Overall, great food and great service.

Emily Ames

Friendly owner, clean, and great healthy gluten free options. Asked if I wanted my smoothie in an allergy free container.

Tim Tarwater

Wow it was great and had options for my wife who is gluten intolerant

Redonda Homesley

Their food was really good! I ordered my burger on the gluten-free bun, it came out warm and soft.

They made a mistake when I ordered and didn’t realize they were out of what I wanted, but were so graceful in getting me another meal on them and refunded me immediately. 10/10 customer service, great food and gluten free options, super cute inside and out. Awesome casual atmosphere but are professional and efficient.

Rebecca Ramey

Salmon was AMAZING and gluten free!!

jim Johnston

Our first visit to North Italia today was fantastic. They are now in our "return soon and potential favorites" column. They are right on our way home from church in Middle Tennessee. I had the best avocado toast I've ever eaten, hands down. Factoring in, "you get what you pay for" and this toast was 50% higher in cost than any previous avocado toast I've eaten, I would expect it to be better. Counter balance the cost with experiencing a perfectly smoked slab of salmon on the avocado toast for the first time and i know that this is a delicious meal worth repeating. Alyce loved her salad. North Italia clearly gives a great deal of thought into their recipes and presentation. At least they did for the two entrees we had. I told Alyce that it's too bad we couldn't share these entrees the next time we come because I enjoyed the creative variety of flavors in her salad, but Alyce can't stand fish of any sort. Having a new confidence in their salads, she suggested that we should try another kind of salad and their gluten free pizza to share next time. Looking forward to that. It takes two or three outstanding meals over a relatively short period of time (a year or so) for us to add any restaurant to our personal favorites.

Didn't start off on the right foot when we had 6pm reservations and they didn't have a table ready for us until 40 minutes later. Had a drink at the bar and the cocktails were fantastic. They made up for the wait quickly by having appetizers come out immediately on the house. My steak was cooked perfectly and the salad was delicious. The menu has gluten sensitive items marked beside them.

Samantha Brady

Thanks to Trevor he saved me from eating gluten tonight! He did his due diligence and double checked the menu to avoid a total disaster for me later! He made a great recommendation on the tomato basil soup though. Thanks !

If there are endless stars ⭐️ I would make. This is by far the best ever First Watch and healthy restaurant ever. I have never written a review, but when you see how fantastic and dedicated the staff are, you must take the time to thank and appreciate. The staff is not only once or twice nice, they are constantly amazing, attentive and super motivated to get your order just perfect. I have both gluten and diary allergies, they cook my dish is special part of the kitchen. It tastes amazing 🤩 This is the best First Watch restaurant ever, I have tried Brentwood (horrible service) and Smyrna (good). Please give this restaurant and the staff a big applause 👏 thank you so much for being so kind and gentle. We love you guys and will be coming every Saturdays and Sundays 😘❤️😘👋 you make our weekend full of happiness and positive energy.

I am officially obsessed with this place. I went to a wreath making class a few days ago and fell in love with the owners, concept, and the lovely location. I had the best chocolate chip cookies I've ever had in my life, and I believe they were gluten-free! Even the drip coffee was yummy! I can't wait to go back.

Katie Goodman

I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich with a gluten free bun. I received a grilled chicken sandwich and with a normal bun. I am highly allergic to gluten and had to throw it out because cross contamination even makes me very sick. Please be more careful about this.

Kathy Ward

This is a fun place with good food. Marie is always our server and does A fantastic job! I have dietary restrictions and she always puts together a good gluten-free, dairy, free dish for me. I recommend it and ask for Marie!

Nancy Little

The ONLY thing good here was the pizza. The trashcan by the front door was overflowing! We came at 11 am so there is no reason for this! Walking into the foyer the mat has not been vaccumed in days! There was no employee to greet us nor a sign directing to seat ourselves. The menu was beyond sticky. They have done away with the lunch special so I was stuck paying the dinner price! Went to the restroom and after I washed my hands I found out they had no paper towels! STAY AWAY! Apparently they have stopped caring! And very little Gluten Free choices so my husband just skipped eating .

Mike Lenda

Definitely our favorite burger. Always fresh, friendly and clean. Fries are also just awesome - my favorite is the lettuce wrapped, perfect for those of us who are gluten-free.

Janet Duncan

I eat healthy Vegan, gluten-free and organic with very little sugar, BrickTop was accommodating for me. The service was excellent!

John Corn

Our favorite restaurant, period. Great gluten free and dietary sensitivity, wonderful dishes, good atmosphere. Handles larger families well. Unfortunately this time the appetiser and entrees were served almost simultaneously making enjoying the appetiser difficult. Truffle fries are exquisite.

Anna Hughes

As a gluten-free person, I loved The Honeysuckle! They were well informed, and made sure my dinner was safe and delicious. The flour-less crab cake made me want to lick the plate, and the steak I had was cooked perfectly. I'd go back again for sure.

Rachel Nienow

Everything about this place is 5 stars. I randomly discovered it this year and have probably stopped by once a week at minimum since then. Coffee and hot beverages are delicious but my FAVORITE thing is the baked goods! As a someone who lives that gluten free life, finding baked goods, never mind DELICIOUS ones, that fit into my restrictions is nearly impossible. So this place is a lifesaver. My only wish is that it stayed open later! Also everyone who works there is super kind and sweet and friendly which makes the whole experience even better! I definitely recommend it.

These sandwiches are nothing to joke about. They have always left me satisfied and smiling. Gluten free bread is always a plus, too!

Gresham Hill

Blue Coast provides our family with lots of gluten and dairy free options; a requirement due to our diverse food issues. We love the pineapple salsa and the self serve drinks and salsa bar.

David Arvin

Amazing food. Very conscious of my sons gluten allergy.

This is where I go whenever I'm craving a burger. It's fast and delicious. The gluten-free buns are some of the best, and don't crumble away to nothing. Thank you!
