We had my dad’s celebration of life luncheon at Sam’s and they did a fantastic job! The food was plentiful and delicious and many of those in attendance complimented us on the venue. They even had gluten free options for those who requested it.

Many pizzas to choose from. Old enviroment from the 20's gives it a unique atmosphere. Good service, gluten free options , dessert and drinks. Don't sit in from of the door if it's wintertime.

Amber at Red Robin in Rockford IL gave excellent service and helped us with gluten free allergy food and and we were impressed.

Kataryna Beatty

We have gluten allergies and this place was a dream to accommodate!

Robyn Michelle

Food is delicious. I don't typically eat sugar and sweets but one thing I very occasionally make an exception for is the Chocolate Thunder from Down Under! I have Celiac and love that it's gluten free! Plus a very decent gluten free menu. The manager, James, made sure the staff handled my meal properly and it's great when the manager goes above and beyond. Definitely appreciated and will be back!

Second visit and I love their sandwiches. Also love that I can get gluten free bread, not an allergy just a preference. The meats and veggies are really fresh, the service is very nice. Great stop for a fresh deli sandwich. Nicely packaged as a to go order also!

On a scale from 1 to 5 Stockholm rates a 10 with me!!!! FIRST of all you haven't seen these prices ANYWHERE, EVEN BEFORE COVID!!! Let me start by saying this I, was totally FLABBERGASTED when I seen the size of my GLUTEN-FREE PANCAKES, yes not only do they offer a number of gluten-free options, you just have to ask for them because you will not see them on the menu, but all of their foods was in very good proportion sizes!!! During a time when everybody is giving you less, and making you pay more, that's not true here at Stockholm inn!!! So come in an empty stomach, and wobble your way out especially on the weekends, and bring the whole family!!! They have an ALL YOU CAN EAT BUFFET!!! Oh my goodness even though it's a small buffet, you will be pleased with the options, and you will also be very satisfied with the service even on the weekends when they are bombarded because of the buffet the staff is so very nice and accommodating I have no problem with giving them a 25% tip!!! I can't say much about the atmosphere because all I saw was food and people!!! I was too busy looking at other people's plates, and all the food that they had on them!!! So much deliciousness that my eyes were taking in, and again the prices are very affordable, and not just on weekdays!!! If you choose to eat from the menu on the weekends you have plenty of affordable options!!! Once you see that buffet tho, you will not choose the menu, I thought I HAD TO CHOOSE FROM THE MENU until I found out from one of the wonderful waitresses, I can eat what I want from the buffet LIKE THE BACON, SAUSAGE, EGGS, ECT. and ask for the GLUTEN FREE BUTTERMILK PANCAKES TO BE COOKED! When the waitress brought out my gluten free pancakes they totally covered my plate!!! I couldn't believe I had these two huge pancakes sitting on this plate and thought I was going to ask for more because they were so good!!! They were not falling apart, and they were well cooked!!! They also have gluten-free swedish pancakes!!! 💝💝💝

Love the variety of options to customize your pizza, including gluten-free choices! The staff is friendly. Will definitely be returning!

Rikki Dahl

First time eating here after passing it probably 1000 times. Really tasty food. Love that they have gluten free options. Had a gluten wrap with potato wedges. My only dislike was the potatoes needed more salt but luckily there was a shaker on the table :p

Valerie Breneman

Great place and lots of gluten-free options!!!!

Chris Olsen

Very friendly service, pretty high quality food. Fries were okay but the cheese sauce was worth it. Milkshakes were rich and delicious. And I appreciated the gluten-free bun option for my son who has Celiac. Worth a stop, I wish I had one closer to home.

Tyler Fancher

Great service with even better food! Our waitress Grace was amazing at her job, knew the menu very well. Made it a point to make sure my girlfriend who is gluten-free got exactly what she wanted and needed. The portion sizes are massive and the food is great! Would recommend to anyone and we will absolutely be back!

Debbie Giardini

Great food. Healthy options and a menu that works for a vegetarian and vegan. Gluten-free options too

Duane Wendtland

We went to Tavern on Clark for the 1st time tonight. The food was excellent! My girlfriend has a gluten allergy, and the waitstaff was very helpful and knowledgeable regarding that, which does not seem to be the case in most restaurants in the area. The waitstaff were totally on point, not missing a beat, regarding our entire dining experience. They have a good variety of selections to choose from, which can be from reasonably priced to higher end choices. All in all, we were totally satisfied and would highly recommend this as a spot to go to.

Elise Doody-Jones

Gluten free buns available and whatever brand they use tastes like bread and holds together well (GF people know what I’m talking about). I had a roast beef with cheese on a GF bun and no detectable cross-contamination! Thank you it’s so appreciated to have tasty food that doesn’t make me sick. Staff were nice and considerate. Partner had not GF foods…bacon cheeseburger, fries and salted caramel shake and says the shake was WOW good and everything else was good. Overall very happy to have tried Beef A Roo. Look forward to traveling to the area and stopping again.

Michelle Miler

So me and my girlfriend came in to the restaurant today. I had to explain to the waitress that I had a severe gluten allergy and that nothing involving gluten could touch my food. she insured me that she would tell the cook. Needless to say within 20 minutes of leaving the restaurant I had a severe allergic reaction because of the food. Along with the horrible service that was provided by the waitress I will never ever go back to this restaurant again due to the simple fact that I ended up in the emergency room because people don’t listen

Stephanie

Gluten free options and the manager was so helpful about my questions

Alex Vermeersch

Delicious gluten free pad Thai!

Very sad they got rid of the gluten free buns and server was very rude this was are go to place time to find somewhere new

Eric F

Very good gluten free pizza. Friendly staff and the order online works very well.

Rosa Vasquez (iamamiwhoami)

This place has been fabulous the last 3 times I went (Cafe & grill side). They accommodated my gluten allergy, which was fantastic! I've enjoyed everything I've had so far here.

Juliana

Possibly one of my favorite rockford restaurants. The service was excellent. They had a qr code menu which is not my favorite but they gave a paper menu when i asked, and they were very helpful in making up a mocktail when my friend couldn't drink alcoholic beverages but thought they looked nice. The appetizers were good and I had the best chicken meal I've had in a restaurant. My friend really enjoyed their pasta as well, I think it's their favorite. The menu also conveniently labels things based on whether they're vegetarian , gluten free, dairy free, etc, if you have dietary restrictions

Marcy Turek

Excellent! Very accommodating to my gluten-free request. Service and atmosphere were most pleasant! Thank you!

chris loring

Suzanne she is the number one server here. I’ve been here many times, but this girl is the best and I love her and I want to continue only coming back here with her serving me. The food is also great here and very accommodating to my gluten allergy !

Manuel Salgado

Thw pizza and saladbis always fire. This time we even tried the gluten free crust and it was actually really really good. The atmosphere seems a bit cold but would still give this place a 9.5 out of ten!

Christopher W

Tasty food, lots of gluten free options!

Jasmine Nears

I love the staff here. Super friendly, patient and quick. They brought my mom a gluten free menu. It's also very family friendly. I see families with strollers and young children on the regular.

Carol Youmans

Always a place for a great lunch in a relaxing atmosphere by the fireplaces. The food is delish. Being celiac, they have gluten-free options. I have never had any issues.

Peggy Daughenbaugh

Very surprised they had gluten-free items on the menu. Dinner was delicious.

Jasmine Nears

It's really the service and atmosphere for me. Love the gardens and being able to breathe in the sights and air. Enjoy that during the right season there's indoor and outdoor seating. The food has some great hits like the sliders, burgers, salmon tacos, and most of the breakfast items. I wasn't a fan of the lobster roll or the crab cake sandwich. They also have some gluten free options and fresh squeezed juice. It's a great option for romance, brunch, or just a fancier friendly lunch. It fits all those requirements. Make sure to check out the gardens which is separate and costs about $24 dollars a ticket.

Our daughter and son in law got married on 04/13/2019. They had the ceremony and reception at Franchesco's Ristorante in Rockford Illinois. Kim Salamone and her husband Benny(owners) and daughters Andrea & Michelle were absolutely delightful to work with. Many months before the nuptials they have a tasting for the bride and groom/family .Rachel & Rick chose the Boursin Filet/Chicken Madeira/Gnocchi Basilico, the food was outstanding!!! Also to let you know the head chef is a delight to work with as I had a celiac/3 gluten sensitives a dairy allergy and a sulfite allergy and he absolutely accomodated us as to have no allergic reactions and that was such a relief! Also, as I am the one with the sulfite allergy they ran special to a local store to get unsulfited sundried tomatoes so that I could enjoy the sauce on the Boursin Filet (it just shows you the level of care/detail they put into making everything enjoyable)! We chose the Platinum package which included amazing Hors d' oeurves and 4 hours of open bar. They customize the timing of how you want the event to go. We used the entire room for the ceremony which was beautiful and in 45 minutes they converted the room into our vision for the reception eg. flowers /touches for the head table/lanterns moved to new areas/wedding favor table etc..So if you have a daughter or son who is about to be married do not hesitate to have both the ceremony .and reception at this venue as it was outstanding and exceeded our expectations!! Kim, also made the most beautiful wedding cake and Gluten free cupcakes for those with allergies. Again, outstanding place but more importantly stellar people who made the wedding beautiful and so memorable!!!

Becky Carlson

Gluten free!!!!!! Just started this week. Beef and cheese and basil. Yummmmmm! Hope they offer more flavors in gluten free.

Sarah Gesiakowski

They are conscientious for food allergies. I am gluten free and nightshade free which really limits my options at Portillos...but the kids wanted Portillos.

Ian Storck

Great brunch experience. Awesome food and Bloody Mary. Gluten free substitutions available for some dishes.

Trey Mowder

Unique, high-quality, and delicious plant-based and gluten free offerings made from scratch. An absolute must visit food truck for anyone in the Rockford area!

Lynne

Fun place. Had live music. Sat outside. Food was yummy. I had the Caribbean Shrimp tacos. My friend had a delicious pizza. They had lots of gluten free options too.
