great place to go if you are celiac! Tons of options and you get delicious spoon bread while you wait for your food.

My 7 year old daughter is a celiac. It’s not so easy to find glutenfree food for a celiac kid. Bit we were happy to find this place: my daughter took the glutenfree fried chicken with glutenfree waffles. She really liked the waffles also the chicken but it was a little bit to spicy for her. I took a glutenfree seafood Po boy and really enjoyed it. Even though I‘m not celiac the Po boy was delicious

This was my first time visiting this establishment, and I have to say my experience was absolutely incredible from start to finish. The service was warm and attentive, and the food? Simply amazing. Every dish had such bold, unique flavors, and I really appreciated the wide variety of vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options on the menu. I ordered the Crab Scramble with vegan eggs, which was packed with flavor. I also got a side of the bison sausage it was my first time trying bison. While I personally prefer chicken or seafood over red meat, the sausage was still well-seasoned and tasty, with subtle notes of onion and bell pepper (not sure if that was intentional, but it worked!). My mom ordered the Shrimp and Grits, and I got to try a bite and wow. It was a flavor explosion. I've never tasted anything quite like it before rich, savory, and perfectly balanced. We all shared the Bananas Foster Pancakes, which were sweet but not overpowering, with a unique flavor that really stood out. I also tried their Iced Matcha Latte delicious and classic in taste. If you're looking for a traditional, less-sweet matcha, this is the one for you. My cousin ordered the Cat Daddy Biscuit, and once again great flavors, perfectly cooked, and the sauce was on point. My aunt went with the Bearcat Breakfast, a more traditional option, but she swapped in the bison sausage, and it paired beautifully with the eggs and potatoes. The only downside? Parking can be a bit tricky, and there might be a wait ours was about an hour. But trust me, it’s absolutely worth it. Next time I'm in New Orleans, I’ll be back without a doubt!

I was hoping for a good meal away from the French Quarter, but we got so much more. The entrees were SOOO good, they truly took us by surprise. I’ll remember the chicken and the shrimp dishes for a while. I rarely order dessert, but after an entree that good, I needed to see what dessert offered. The Salted Peanut Pie was delicious. Only thing of mention was about the lack of gluten free dessert options - typical ice cream and sorbet offering.

Caroline Trettin

I ordered the Vegan Lover Pizza, which I’ve gotten several times before, only to have a different employee tell me that it’s not actually vegan unless you order it with the gluten-free crust??? Wildly misleading! Apparently, the regular crust has butter in it. I am so thankful that other employee let me know. Sad and deceived.

Upon returning from the swamp to where we were all hungry, so we had the bus drop us off on canal street. We dined at Olde Nola Cookery a family-owned gem nestled right on Bourbon Street in the heart of the French Quarter. Its motto—“Cooked by Locals, Spiced with History”—captures the spirit of the place perfectly, they also accommodate gluten-free which is an added bonus! The menu is a celebration of classic New Orleans fare: think Cajun and Creole staples and their much-loved gator bites. Seafood is a standout there, we had dishes like blackened alligator salad, gluten free crab cakes, tender half rack pork ribs and shrimp po’boys. They also offer vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options, which is a thoughtful touch for a city not always known for dietary flexibility. The atmosphere is quintessentially French Quarter—colorful, a little rowdy, and full of character. With three dining rooms and a balcony overlooking Bourbon Street, it’s a great spot for people-watching or soaking in the sounds of the city while enjoying a meal If you’re ever in the mood for a meal that feels like a love letter to New Orleans—bold, soulful, and just a little indulgent—Olde Nola Cookery might be your spot.

There aren’t many gluten free options. It’s kinda our fault since we thought a seafood restaurant would have more fish options that weren’t shellfish. The service was great and welcoming. It was really really loud inside though there were few people dining at the time. It was $20 for a standard burger with a bag of chips. I kinda think that it was overpriced.

Laura Foster

I am gluten free but the others with me were not. The charbroiled and raw oysters are amazing! And they're gluten-free except you have to ask for bread on the side. I probably did not order the right thing, but I had the grillled shrimp which were meh and the fries that were nice. for gluten full people, the beignets were a hit and also the gumbo and bisque

Finally got to find a nice good place for gluten free delicious food... Very nice and friendly people and workers..

Kendall Richey

Stopped here on a drive from New Orleans to Houston because of the gluten free fried seafood options which is rare. We ate at the bar and had fried shrimp and catfish, fries, and onion rings all of which were gluten free and safe from cross contamination. The bartender was also very knowledgeable and friendly.

Lindsay Metzger

I had such a wonderful experience, here! I love being able to have fried things and know it isn't going to bother me, as I need gluten free. I shared truffle Parmesan Brussels, green chili queso Brussels, and the hot honey and sage sweet potato fries. All were stellar, though I might ask for no additional salt at the end at future visits. I ordered the magic shroom burger and was intrigued by their GF bun. It had a nice whole grain flavor, and wasn't TOO crumbly.

Becca Chapman

best gf fried chicken and fries ever! and wonderful cocktails 😁 I have celiac and I am always safe here

Erin Carriel

We wanted Fabulous local food and Sylvain’s did not disappoint! We had the Pappardelle Bolognese and Striped Bass which were both delicious, we also had the Fried Cauliflower which was a wonderful surprise!! Our server Chris was knowledgeable, efficient, and friendly. They were able to accommodate my gluten free restrictions, including dessert…a coconut crème brûlée! The ambiance was intimate and beautiful, we loved everything about this restaurant and highly recommend it!

Rhys James

The gluten free menu was great and had plenty of options. I had seen there used to be gluten free gumbo however there isn’t anymore. I had jumbalaya instead which was okay, but slightly bland. It’s also quite noisy inside and the AC was on high so it was cold. I think the outside patio looked lovely and would recommend sitting out there. Otherwise service was fine and lots of good food options.

Alexandra Babin

Delicious and safe for celiacs.

Katy Garzotto

Excellent quality for the price. My husband and I particularly love the curbside pickup option. Best of all, they have a gluten free pasta option for me and my fellow gluten sensitive people!

Maxwell Reitman

Excellent food, the fish and grits was perfect and the maduros really elevated the dish. Finding a place down here with a nearly fully gluten free menu can be tricky, but Besame's careful menu planning makes it so your celiac friends don't have to choose between deliciousness and safety.

Sydney Bonner

We went here for dinner during a bachelorette and it was lovely!! It was a great location- close to anything we wanted to do. It has options for your gluten free, vegan, or vegetarian friends as well. Tyrique was a great server. The team responsible for interior design did amazing!! It is such a cute restaurant. 🤩 The wine was a great price as well. Highly recommend the moscato. Favorite appetizers on menu: truffle fries and cheese dip!

Kristy Morgan

A celiac/gluten-free person's dream! I had the blueberry pancakes and tried the biscuit. Both were amazing.

Cory McClendon

Great gluten free options! It's hard to find restaurants when traveling that have knowledgeable staff or owners that know off the top of their heads what on their menu is gluten free and this place was awesome, well done and if we ever go through this area again we will definitely visit!

Mindi Keith

Stopped in after work with a friend for a late lunch and had the best tuna salad sandwich *chefs kiss* My friend couldn’t stop raving about her food also. Server was fantastic and funny. Menu features gluten free options for those of us with dietary restrictions. Hope to go again!

David Gaunt

Really good food, carter's well for gluten intolerant

Mitzi Starkweather

What a beautiful, delicious, cozy experience. The shrimp and grits were phenomenal, and they have gluten free options noted on the menu! The staff was kind and welcoming and gave us space but served us well. We we will definitely be back!

Oh man, I had a great solo meal today at BJ's. Gluten-free pizza! Phoebe and Brooke are the best 2 waiters/Servers/Bartenders evah. Eating out is challenging for me, but these two made it so easy. I feel geat! No cramps, no pain at all. I could not have asked for a better experience. Thanks Phorbe and Brooke', y'all rock! See ya soon!:)

Jana Miskarova

This place was recommended to me, though my friends were one of the best places to go . I can admit that it was truly one of the best ! They have gluten-free, including cornflower crust, which was delicious. Also, they have vegan cheese 🧀 😋 ale that was highlight of my day as i am lactose-free too, and it's extremely hard to find such a place. Also, you can choose any topping so my pizza was really rich 😂😂 They offer sorbet, this is true gem 💎

We waited 40mn for a table for a late dinner. The person at the reception wasnt the friendliest but we were hungry. BIG SHOUT-OUT to Paul on the merch side to be kind enough to talk to us while we waited! We finally got a table and ended up waiting 15/20 mn to get a server. Wasnt too thrilled about that. Server was nice and informative on food allergies though. They have a gluten free menu available, but the seasoned fries weren't gluten free, needs updated. We got a burger and a pulled pork sandwich with green beans sub for fries. Overall wasnt impressed with the food specially for the price. Manager came to check on us and we ended up talking about music and tattoos! Memorabilia was interesting on the walls.

Yum! Went here twice on our vacation, so good! Gluten free waffles were perfect. Customer service was excellent!

Robin Cobb

Top local place to go for gluten free and vegan!

Priscilla Nichols

I go for the Gluten free blueberry drops. Wish there were more flavor options and they weren't quite as sweet but the blueberry is pretty tasty.

Bri

Absolutely amazing, great food amazing gluten free options, even onion rings can be made gluten free! All fried food is battered with corn meal. Possibly one of the best gluten free seafood restaurants I’ve ever been to! (im from Arizona) would definitely go again

Jake Bowers

If you've recently lost a loved one (egg, milk, gluten) then this is the place you need to try. They work magic. I don't know how they make brioche or pastry cream without eggs or dairy but they did it excellently.

I cannot have gluten or seed oils due to severe allergies, and this restaurant was very accommodating with their steak and working with me on sides because it's very difficult to eat out sometimes. The New York strip was cooked. Absolutely perfectly service was fantastic and the restaurant was very clean.

Matt Turner

Outstanding vegan and gluten free options. You MUST try a king cake and the hot breakfasts!

Christopher Brown

The food was very tasty with good sized portions -- I had the cheese enchiladas and my partner had the street tacos in jerk chicken and adobo. The jerk chicken was incredible. The music was super loud, which I wasn't a fan of, and the servers were laid back, which I don't mind but some people don't like. There were a lot of drink specials and an abundance of vegetarian options on the menu, and eating gluten free was very easy. We'll definitely be back.

Definitely was a really good experience. Sushi was good. The server was amazing. They really honored my gluten intolerance and I felt safe. The only reason that I did not give 5 stars was because the fried rice and the teriyaki wasn't the best. But the restaurant is fully worth a visit

Haley Andrews

10/10 !!! Amazing options for vegans and gluten free. The flavors are beautiful

Tori Emrie

A hidden gem on Royal Street. The staff were so friendly and went above and beyond to make my birthday celebration special. The food was sublime. They were so accommodating with my gluten allergy and presented me with a cotton candy birthday dessert. If you’re in New Orleans you must dine here, it’s a truly magnificent experience.

Really cool place with an eclectic food & drinks menu! Great choice for Celiacs- lots of options.
