Great food. friendly server. accommodating for gluten allergy. JP was great, only concern was the pigeons in the indoor dinning area

We had an amazing experience on Wed, 3/19/25, with server Max. It did take a bit of time to get items, like the table side guacamole. Our cart sat while he attended other tables before he made our guac. I asked if the tortilla chips were fried in a seperate or shared fryer. He immediately asked "do you have Celiac?". I do & he made sure everything was safe for me. I really appreciated that, I never felt like I was a bother because of my Celiac. The food & drinks were delicious, though on the pricier side. Max was very personable, he made the experience so great.

My fiancé and I were visiting San Antonio in April for the eclipse and had dinner at Fogo de Chao for the first time. Staff were wonderful and welcoming from the moment we walked in. The servers treated all of the tables as their own. A special thank you to the manager who was kind enough to bring me the allergen list and go through item by item with me as I have celiac disease. Avoiding gluten while eating out can be daunting but she made me feel confident and safe. The food was delicious, the salad bar had multiple options and there was never a shortage of meat coming to the table. We felt very special at the end when we were surprised with a crème brûlée. We would 10/10 recommend and hope to go back someday.

Worth the wait! I did the “build your own pasta” with the gluten free pasta & parmesan cheese sauce, which was delicious - being able to mix & match their pasta options to all be GF was great. Husband got the chicken parm & absolutely loved it too. Portion sizes were very generous! We chose 4/5 as for an Italian restaurant, we were hoping for a bread appetizer that most restaurants offer, but we didn’t have that. And we do agree with the other reviewers that it is a little slow, but it’s absolutely worth the wait. Staff were all very kind & personable!

I came in from out of town on a business trip and naturally, had to check out riverwalk & grab a bite to eat on the water ! Here's the catch- I have severeeeeee celiac disease. Like, cross contamination sensitive. It makes finding safe eateries while traveling a...challenge to say the least. That being said, I found Paesano's via a Google search and saw immediately they had a huge gluten free menu...I called and spoke to the staff before I decided to catch an Uber there..and they made me feel so safe. Understood the allergen protocol. I get to the restaurant and I'm seated immediately- during peak dinner hours. I get a cozy little spot right on the riverwalk, perfect for people watching as I dine solo. My server, Rudy** was such a pleasure - kind , attentive and understood the assignment right away when i explained my allergen needs. He assured me multiple times before food was dropped that he spoke to Chef Raul** and told me their cross contamination precautions. Wow did I feel safe. It means so much to us allergy folks when places just GET IT. And they GET IT . Lovely vibes, personable and friendly service even during peak dinner ! For a solo dining guest ! I am happy to report I have a safe spot to visit next time I'm here in SAT.

everything on menu is gluten free! The chicken tenders are amazing! The breading holds well and doesn’t fall apart ! 10/10

R Sebeck

Multiple gluten free and vegan options on the menu, very good price, good atmosphere! Very much enjoyed my bbq chicken salad even though I was eyeing up the gluten free sandwiches! They have a tangible gluten free menu rather than leaving you to decipher the main menu and our server was very knowledgeable. I am very sensitive to cross contact with gluten and I did not have a reaction. All of my gluten eating friends at the table also thoroughly enjoyed their meals :)

Phyllis Vaughan

We came across this wonderful Pizza place tucked in off the River Walk and I am so very glad we did! We sat at the bar and Kayla and her crew were such a pleasure to be around! Great service, wonderful conversation and the Gluten Free Pizza absolutely Delicious! We will be back!

Rebecca Sheeder

I recommend this place if you’re gluten sensitive! The GF crust was pretty good. Corbin provided excellent service!

Jennifer King

Food was good and hot. Had the gluten free bun on a burger and it was excellent. Top.shelf margarita was okay but deemed to lack alcohol. They have a dedicated fryer for gluten free fries. Sweet potato fries were good.

Julia Kottarathil

They have a separate gluten-sensitive menu. Really delicious!! I had the New York Strip with Garlic Mashed Potatoes.

Batu Raja

We got a table on short notice and were given a wam greeting a seated immediately. My wife must be gluten free and our waiter was extremely well versed in what the kitchen could and could not do for her. We split a rack of lamb and it was cooked perfectly. I had an order of cornbread that was delicious. For dessert the chef prepared a gluten free Grand Marnier Vanilla Soufflé that my wife said was the absolute best dessert she has had in 30 years!!

Paige Frantz

Felt confident with my gluten free request! The photographer was 10/10, so patient with our big group and created a great memory for us to look back on!

Ray Flores

Amazing food & service was outstanding. This was our first time visiting as we were headed to the Tobin Center for an event. Pizza took around 15-20 minutes, and the gluten-free crust was outstanding. All in all, highly recommended 👌 !

Eda Özsoy Onaran

We ate at the bar as we found a place at the last minute, but our bartender welcomed us perfectly. I wanted the meat to be very well cooked, so it was slightly burnt. Our chef prepared a special gluten-free sauce for me. I expected a little more truffle flavor in the truffle fries. But overall I liked it very much. Thanks

Samantha

First time going there, was a surprise from my hubby. I also have a food allergy, and our waiter was very informative about that I could eat. I have celiac disease, and I actually could eat a lot! Felt like I didn't have to worry about getting contaminated, it was so nice! And the food is amazing! Would highly recommend!

Deanie Whittemore

Delicious breakfast tacos! Great restaurant with gluten free and dairy free options, wonderful juices, and good coffee.

Haley Griffin

Wonderful experience! Food was great and even offered some Gluten Free options. They really are a hidden gem. (They are on the Riverwalk, but hidden). Manager Fazia and Server Filiberto were wonderful and made the experience even better!

Kole Lutz

We waited 45min for party of 4 to actually be sat inside for walk-in even though requested outside seating. Had to ask for server to order food cause we may have been forgotten. Food was good although gluten tortillas debatable. Recommend if you can sit outside

Kristina

I had the best lamb here! It was juicy and had a great taste. I also got the grits with jalapeño cheese and that was sooo good. They have good gluten free options for my partner who has celiacs. They had really great drinks too! I love the environment here. The chef was also walking around talking to people which was really nice. Overall an amazing experience.

Christina Kahn

We’ve been coming to Tre periodically for over ten years. It is THAT good. Last night we went to celebrate a couple of birthdays, and the pulled mozzarella, Rainbow Trout, and Bolognese (both normal and gluten free) were on point! The “foodie” in our group raved about the crispy rainbow trout, and he is not easily impressed. The house Italian salad was also wonderful and fresh, though perhaps just a tad heavy on the dressing for my personal preference. The restaurant is tucked back behind SAMA and overlooks the river (shaded). This place delights, we will continue to go back!

Lizzy Rose

Love this place! I have celiac disease and it was hard to find a good place on the river walk with gluten free options, lone star had a gluten free bun so i got a delicious cheeseburger, staff were very well informed about allergies. Penny was a great waitress :-)

Christina Foor

Great bbq, just a bit pricey. Most things are gluten free and the vibe is nice. Food runs out by 8/830pm.

Iris Gonzalez

The gluten free buns are really good!! Service was great!!

Autumn Bo

They do not in fact have gf croissants and in fact the staff member laughed at me when I asked. They have very few options that are gluten free and not very respectful of questions regarding cross contact of the eggs.

Kelly Perryman

Started of pretty quiet during our reservation, then progressively loud as more people came in. Anthony our server was great. Food was great and I was very happy with the gluten free menu.

Marla villarreal

Superb! The service team is super friendly and kind. Kat (the service team member who helped us) helped us find what to order. She was familiar with the menu items and helped me identify whether there were any foods I’m allergic to in what I wanted to order. And she told us there is gluten free bread!! It was super delicious!! Also, their homemade rootbeer is incredible. ☺️

Vanessa Weber

What a unique spot!! The smells and beautiful pastries that greet you when you open the door are such a treat!! Unfortunately- no gf options and cross contamination would be an issue. But everyone who can eat gluten said their pastries were the best! Coffee was super good.

Salvatore Pacilio

Great DJ, good vibes, awesome spot. I checked it out on a Friday night and they had fire dancing and acrobatics. The DJ played a great mix of dance, trance, pop, and electronic. Basic food menu. No exciting nonalcoholic or virgin bev options (they don’t really have a bar—they just sell canned or bottled drinks and frozen drinks). Basic burger, sandwich, and fries food menu, limited gluten free options. No gf buns. An overall great hangout 👍

Charity IreneLee

The food was okay and I am super grateful for vegan and gluten free places because I can’t eat out without them. I however think they charged way too much for what we got and it should have had more veggies on the tacos at least cilantro tomato spinach. There was none on mine. I was not highly impressed especially for what I paid for 2 people spent $80 with tip! I didn’t take pictures but I should have

Teresa Byrd

My husband and I ate here for our 15 yr anniversary. We both had steak. Our steaks were cooked to perfection. Juicy and delicious. We both had the red potatoes and veggies. Everything was great. My husband had the ice cream dessert and I had the key lime. Both were mouth watering. I have a gluten sensitivity and the waitress was very helpful with those modifications. I drank a prickly pear margarita and it was delicious. 100% recommend!

Payton Schwarz

Ben made dining in so much fun! I have a gluten allergy and he made sure we were well taken care of the whole night! such a great experience

Peter Angelos

A quick stop for quality, traditional Mexican food. The flavors and service are always solid. Gluten Free options, but if you have Celiac cross-contact concerns, take all usual care & precautions. I've not had a reaction.

Alicia Colon

Superior customer service. Bobby and Brandon went above and beyond to take care of our large group. I have celiac and need strictly gluten free and they took it very seriously, verified my order with the chef to ensure safety and I didn't get sick at all. I ordered the paella. Great atmosphere too.

Lauren Wicker

Wonderful dinner at Ostra on the Riverwalk. Great location with wonderful and attentive staff, Jorge was a great server- 5 stars from me! I had the mahi mahi, delish! Gluten free options suited my needs as well as other good vegetarian/DF/GF options.

Brittany Rosenthal

EET UP is delicious! Many tasty burger options, including a veggie burger, and a chicken sandwich option. Not to mention, great gluten-free options. Definitely planning to return!

Carissa Rone

Our waitress, jessi was so nice, attentive, and super cute! With celiac disease, I have to be extra cautious of gluten. She catered to my needs and even brought out the kitchen manager for my order. She also checked on us at least every 10 minutes!

Samantha

Was such a delicious option for lunch. I had gluten free gumbo with fish and my daughter had cheesy noodles with chicken. It tasted amazing and the wonderful ladies who helped us, Drea and Zion, were so fun and hospitable! Highly recommend.

Juan Andres Reynoso-Mazoy

Very good options for gluten free folks. Celiacs might enjoy Thai Bird (dedicated gluten free food).

Bridget Baker

Had bunch today at the Sugar factory. They have a great range of food and drink, and a gorgeous view over the riverwalk. Was delighted that they have gluten free options too. Ashley the manager and Tanya her amazing waitress were both so lovely. I’d highly recommend checking it out.

Allison

Right on the Riverwalk, gluten friendly options, the BEST queso I’ve ever had with great service and a seat right near the River. We really enjoyed our meal!

Gloria Jones

INCREDIBLE experience!!! From when I called to see the wait time, to when we were leaving. Just in awe! When we called the hostess she was very warm and friendly and accommodated us. We sat right in front of the chefs making the nigiri and it was so fun. Drew was our waiter and he made our experience awesome. He was very knowledgeable and gave his recommendations and they were 100! The sushi is the most fresh and best tasting sushi we have ever had. The atmosphere is chill and calm. Very clean. Modern and sophisticated. My husband is gluten free and Drew went out of his way to accommodate and present options that were safe for him. Hands down recommend 1000%! We will definitely be back! I’m sorry my photos aren’t the best. We were so anxious to eat.

BDG

I went in for breakfast and decided to have the buffet where both of my children were free (only if you order buffet). I have Celiac Disease so I can't have gluten. The server, Daniel was very accommodating and he went to ask the chef if he didn't know if something had gluten in it. My boys enjoyed the food. Will be going back in tomorrow.

William Forber

This place rocks, best food in the food hall, and not too expensive either, great for gluten free and vegan options, too.

Chutney Montañero

VEGAN & GLUTEN FREE FRIENDLY! I have Celiacs and my partner and I are vegan. Brandi and her team were so hospitable, knowledgeable and accommodating for our special needs and sensitivities. Clean hands, new gloves, and uncontaminated supply from the back. Special cleaned and handled trays for the shared brick oven too! Amazingly, I had no reaction and we are so grateful for this place. 🙏 Even the vegan pepperoni is GF, y'all!!! 💜 🍕 Plus: did I mention it's delicious!!! 🤤And white claws avail too. 👏 Cheers! "Come and take it." 🤠

Ana

A restaurant that I recommend to go with children. The atmosphere-design is great. You are in a jungle with scenery and moving gorillas or elephants....The service and treatment of the staff was very good. They have gluten-free children's menus.
