Will ask you when you walk in if you need a GF menu. Owner has celiac. Has separate kitchen space. Large menu. Everything is delicious

Brent Warner

Rad Italian place reminiscent of the Midwest. Service was great, large portions, and tons and tons of gluten free options (never seen this many before). Excellent. Worth a try if you’re in Rochester.

Michelle Wolf

A clean convenient location for lunch or dinner with a variety of food options and excellent service. Gluten sensitive and healthier options are available, and we were told they use a dedicated gluten sensitive fryer. We liked the gluten sensitive options so much we forgot to take a picture when we first got them :). Sorry!

4.4 total stars for this great American restaurant. They had issues seating us out of the sun which was frustrating but they eventually were able to accommodate. 5 stars for our server Ephraim! He was so accommodating and knowledgeable about the dietary restrictions. They have many gluten sensitive and plant based/ vegan options and accommodated various requests for us. Lots of variety in the menu so anyone can eat here. 4 stars for the quality of the food it wasn’t outstanding but good. We had the: Blueberry mocktail- nice that they have many alcohol free options but this drink was just okay Gluten free truffle Parmesan fries- very good garlic aioli hit the spot Gluten free rainbow roll- okay Plant based mushroom fettuccini with gluten free pasta and chicken- delicious! Bison burger of gluten free bread- decent, amazing Gf bread GF Cookies and cream cake - excellent I do recommend for a group that needs variety and has dietary restrictions. It’s a nice atmosphere on the casual side.

TL;DR: Discovered Purple Goat on a gluten free FB page. Good food & knowledgeable staff. We were in town over the weekend coming from the Twin Cities, and we stopped in on the way to our hotel, about an hour & a half before close. We hadn't eaten since that morning and were excited to try the menu. We ordered drinks, the pork nachos as an app, and a pair of burgers. Our server April very patiently answered all my questions about the gluten free menu & was very helpful. I had quite a few questions because the menu has a little message about gluten free options posted on a corner of the menu, but none of the individual items are labeled "GF/GS" The nachos were great, and I even ordered extra of the avocado verde salsa. Our burgers were good, juicy & flavorful. The fries they came with were also great. Overall we had a good experience, and would love to come back when we're in town again. We would definitely order the pork nachos again and work our way through the menu. I think the only thing I would love to see is a gluten free dessert option.

Always a pleasant experience at Smoak. They offer a variety of quality & affordable BBQ items. All of which are delicious. They even have gluten free options so my wife can enjoy barbecue again. Highly recommended.

Lisa Bromley

Gluten friendly. Burger cooked to perfection on a gluten free bun. Had gluten free beer/hard ciders. Great service

Heather Rose Morris

Consistent and reliable. I have a dairy allergy and can have a plain burger with the Udi's gluten free bun and fries with no issues. Service is pretty good, beer selection is pretty good, and there is a good selection of unique burgers for all of my boys. Nice family friendly bar atmosphere. We get in and out relatively quickly. Medium priced eat in restaurant that serves alcohol. We come back to this place over and over cause I can eat here with my allergy and there's something good for everyone else too. A Rochester staple.

We have gone to Broadway Pizza for years because of their gluten free cheese bread and pizza. I’ve also recommended others go there. Unfortunately, the food has changed. The gf cheese bread is now on a thin slice of gf bread and is horrible, gf pizza just ok. Service was wonderful and have always loved the atmosphere. I feel sad that it is no longer a place we will frequent.

My wife and I stopped by for breakfast this morning on a whim. We were pleasantly surprised to have an outstanding experience. My wife suffers from a whole host of food allergies and as a result it is difficult to find a restaurant that can accommodate all of them. Chief among them being gluten (celiacs disease) and cross contamination from gluten. The staff did just that. From the top notch service provided by our waitress (thank you again, Amber B.) to the kitchen staff that prepared our food exactly the way it was ordered including all of our special requests. Our meals were made with top quality ingredients that came thru in both the taste and texture. It is also worth noting, that my wife did not suffer a reaction from any errors made in the preparation of our meals. The whole experience exceeded all of our our expectations. We will definitely be coming back again. To all those that read this, quality service deserves to be rewarded and lauded. Not just with gratuity but also thru reviews such as these.

Rosemed Miami

4.7 stars for this delicious lovely gem 💎 The atmosphere is beautiful and on the upscale side. Highly recommend the Grenache rose to go with the oysters which are on the Briney side but great if you like that sort of thing. Asparagus app and beet app are smothered in cheese so not great for my taste but loved by others. Bison meatloaf and scallops were the best dishes. Cabbage rolls were good but the tofu inside is the best part. Pork was also good. The 16 layer crepe cake was amazing as well as the chocolate torte that’s also gluten free which is a big plus. The server was very helpful in determining the gluten free dishes and options. All the staff were kind and helpful. Overall a great restaurant highly recommended!

Chris Dokken

Very good food, and they have gluten free pizza crust which is very nice since both my dad and sister have Celiac's disease. They also had the wild on which is always a bonus

Randi Menk

Time for date night and restaurant roulette with the significant other? The one who can’t make up their mind and certainty not feeling what you are suggesting? Well, look no further. With four eateries like Julio’s Tacos offering tacos, nachos, quesadillas, chips and salsa. Murdoch Place has your burgers, dogs, toasties and appetizers. Looking for something with chicken? Well, Birdie’s is the place. Chicken sandwiches, popcorn chicken and strips, salads and sides, chicken n’ waffles and even a couple pork sandwiches. Last chance to persuade them that this is the place to be is Reid’s pizza. Classic or signature pies in Detroit Style thick crust, Minnesota Style Thin Crust or Gluten Free Thin Crust. The Workshop Bar for those libation leanings of midwestern brews, domestics, craft and seasonal cocktails, mocktails, and the Geez Louis. Libby’s Sweet Shop for confection cravings of shakes, malts, cheesecake, mini-donuts, cookies and churros. Dating back to the 1930s this historical building was the workshop for the canning factory and the iconic corncob water tower across the street. Originally owned and operated by Reid, Murdoch & Co. Beautifully restored, repurposed and simply decorated with a Minnesota theme. Large interior with brick walls, cement floor, open industrial ceiling, tables and chairs, padded booths and dividers. A barbershop is available during normal business hours and an outdoor patio is serving you and your furry companion. The pooch burger is available at Murdoch’s Place. Once inside claim a table or booth with something insignificant or a friend that is significant, scan the QR code on the table for menu options and head to the order counter of your choice. Overhead menus are also available at each individual counter. Pay and wait and the food is brought right to your table. Easy peasy. My blushing bride had her mind made up and in no time we were enjoying Reid’s thin crust, classic Supreme. Football shaped pizza nicely topped with ample amount of pepperoni, sausage, bell peppers, onion, black olives, mozzarella cheese baked to a crispy thin crust perfection. Good food, comfortable atmosphere and friendly service.

We stopped here on a whim and the food did not disappoint! It was very easy to modify things on the menu to ensure it would be gluten free. The outdoor space was nice, I recommend using it if you’re there in a sunny MN day!

Aubrey Amundson

I've been here several times over the years and it's always a fabulous experience. Excellent food, excellent service. Lovely family experience. And great options if you need to eat gluten free. There are even GF cookies and other deserts.

Elizabeth Sloan

I am gluten free, always a great experience.

Nicole Chai Britson

So delicious!! 10/10 would come back anytime! We started with pork dumplings and fried tofu. My group is still talking about how mind-blowingly delicious the dumplings were (being gluten intolerant I was not able to partake). The fried tofu comes with a generous serving and was also delicious. The kitchen nailed the slightly crispy exterior and soft interior that makes fried tofu most delicious. We also enjoyed the soju and other drink options. For the meal we had 2 types of Bibimbap, Bulgogi, and Japchae and we all had food left over. We’ve just left but I’m super looking forward to leftovers already. All orders come with complimentary Banchan (small shareable plates), and several entrees include Banchan also. Banchan rotates and depends on what the kitchen has available. The menu has some options for gluten friendly and vegetarian alternatives for specific dishes. I am gluten sensitive and pregnant and the server was very attentive to my dietary restrictions and needs. She made sure the Banchan that came with my meal were options that I could have and asked the kitchen to thoroughly cook the egg that came with my Bibimbap. We were impressed with the level of general noise of the restaurant. There was quiet, pleasant music playing in the background and you could easily hear each other talk without having to raise your voice. We did sit near a side entrance door which left us a bit chilly before our drinks and hot food hit our systems.

Lisa Papenfus

I requested gluten free bread for my order, which was delicious, by the way. They were very careful when they made my sandwich. I have Celiac disease so it is extremely important that there is no cross contamination. I haven't had any issues with that at Erbert & Gerbert's!

claire

Robin Komay

Gluten free options..thank you!!

Sarah G.

Zen Fusion Hibachi was delicious, and the service was top notch. Corinne was delightful and kind, cheerful and knowledgeable. Chef B was entertaining and charming, the best hibachi chef I've ever experienced. Everyone was very careful about a gluten allergy in our group, and they were very accommodating for every personality and need.

Darlene Vincent

LOVE the atmosphere here! Always clean and decorated nicely. Food is great! Had the "naked burrito" because I am gluten free. Excellent!

Mary eggermont

Great, interesting salads, all gluten free. I had the Tex Mex bowl. Yummy!

Teresa Schott

This place is great. I called and ordered 2 gluten free pizzas. The taste was amazing. Delivery was fast, the driver was friendly. Definitely recommend!

Corey Wondra

Hashbrowns were extremely dry and difficult to eat, almost stale. Was disappointing because I haven't been to Perkins in some time and remember a much better hashbrown. Omelette was good, waitress attempted to assist with my gluten allergy but I was still made sick by my meal which was a meat and potato omelette substituted tots for hashbrowns.

Donna Lawson

Great breakfast! Would be nice to have gluten free bread and sugar free syrup for us on specialty diets. Billy is a wonderful server

Sheila Holt

My Granddaughter is on a strict gluten free diet and says this is the best glutin free pepperoni pizza she has ever had! Our whole family loves Godfather's!

Keegan Brumbaugh

Burgers are fantastic and Celiac friendly! 10/10 recommend
