Top 5 Gluten-Free Mediterranean Spots to Delight in Savannah

Kristen Phelps

We came to Olympia Cafe for dinner on our quick weekend getaway to Savannah, and I am so glad we did!! It’s in a nice building right in front of the river, and both the atmosphere and food were wonderful. My husband is Gluten Free, so the menu being clearly marked was a major plus for us. I am not, however, and the bread they brought out to start was delicious!! My husband had the lemon chicken and he said it was phenomenal! We both had a great time and experience, I also loved the mints they gave at the end of the meal.

Very easy to order online and get gluten sensitive options; got the grilled chicken parmigiana that was so delicious!

I absolutely love this restaurant. When we go to savannah and want something quick and healthy, we stop by SHUK. To me, the restaurant isn't expensive at all ($15.00 approx) for food that will benefit you in the long run. ( I mean, have you seen the prices at cava. You will definitely spend more at cava) . The lattes are pretty good made with simple ingredients ( I just wish it were served a little hotter, especially on cold days), but nevertheless, still a good latte. I totally recommend this restaurant to anyone with dietary restrictions ( dairy alternatives and gluten-free options are available. I'm not sure if someone with celiac would be safe here, but I'm sure the friendly staff can help you navigate through the menu with no problem) If you prefer your food on the salty side, the restaurant provides salt and pepper shakers for customers. I think the balance of sharwama seasoning and pickled onions taste just fine with no extra salt needed. Also, if you are a sauce person, try the amba sauce with your food. I gave this restaurant 5 stars through and through.

We had a double date here in Valentine's Day. What appeared to be a little while I'm the wall establishment knocked my socks off. The staff was spectacular. Our waitress, Codie (?), was excellent. She said she has worked there for two years and her bonds with the owners and other employees clearly show. The food was AMAZING! Limited menu of specials for Valentine's Day but they were excellent. My wife is gluten free and the server clearly knew her products as she explained what was available and what could be adjusted. Appetizers, Sangria, four main dishes, and two desserts were all well prepared, perfectly temped, and deliciously presented. We will be back!
