My sis is gluten-free, and for the first time in a long time, she was able to select things she normally would not be able to select. Plus the food was great! We will definitely visit Erie Street Kitchen again!

Delicious food. Great portion size. And the Mac and cheese was so good it made me take a nap after. I had been wanting to try this place for a long time, my fiancee has celiac so it's hard to find a lot of places that have good variety for her to eat. This place was amazing and so good. I'm so glad we finally got the chance to try it and we'll definitely be back.

I took my client here and the food was so speedy even though they were full up. I had the bartender serve me and it was great! I’m always there for the gluten free :) and those sweet potato tots! And sorry I can’t seem to find my photos for here but yum!

I told her I wanted a burger wrapped in lettuce for a gluten allergy and she was so nice and made sure the cooks knew and they put that burger in a separate bag to ensure there wasn't any contamination :)

This is my first google review! *This is for anyone wondering about food allergies/accommodations.* My boyfriend and I visited Bell Tower last night. We usually don’t eat out due to his allergies/food preferences. In the past I’ve gone out here with my family and we love it. My boyfriend has a severe peanut allergy, along with legumes, and is an egg-free vegetarian. We ordered a veggie wrap and asked for no chickpeas/falafel. When it was served, it had falafel in the wrap. I quickly asked the bartender and they remade it beautifully! The manager on duty (who was spectacular) took it off the bill along with my side of French fries. He also gave us a heart felt apology and promised they’d do better next time. We said it’s alright and we understood mistakes happen. I’ve worked in many food service jobs, so I have a lot of understanding for people in the front and back of house. :) My boyfriend LOVED the veggie wrap, it was filling, and we really enjoyed our time. If you are in need of a friendly place for gluten free, vegan, vegetarian, they have plenty of options! In Kent, it’s hard to find places to accommodate and Bell Tower exceeded our expectations ❤️. Thank you again guys!!!

Had dinner on a Saturday night and the food came out very quickly. The goyza and tempura appetizers were delicious. Our favorite dinner is the chicken rendang which is a delicious coconut milk based curry that is gluten and dairy-free. gluten-free soy sauce is available just ask for it.

I have nothing but great things to say about this place. We came in 30 before close and ordered Mac with gluten free noodles. They were happy to accommodate but warned us it would take a bit longer to prep them. We chatted while we waited and the staff was so sweet. We got all of our groups food right before close and we thanked them for giving us such good service so late. They insured us that they were open till close for a reason and thanked us for coming in. Then we took the food home and may I say it is some of the best food I’ve had in a while. It’s so rich and flavorful and the meat is cooked so well. The servings are generous and I was so stuffed I almost couldn’t finish. It was so good I’m debating going back again today. If you haven’t given this place a try yet please do!
