GF waffle was meh. I have celiac so I am judging in comparison to GF foods purely. The cheese had a crust on it like it was American cheese that had been overcooked and the peppers were cooked somehow such that the skin was still super tough but the meat was mush. The service was also quite slow. The savory choice didn't work out. I do not appear to have been glutened however, so a star is earned back for that.

Wonderful dinner and service. We were so happy that the heat broke and we were able to eat outside. Our server kept our water glasses full which was very appreciated since it was still warm. I am Gluten, Dairy and soy free so I always worry what I'll be able to eat. The server helped me pick and I got the brussel sprouts over grits with chicken. I also had a few cocktails, My husband had the salmon burger The Ego Boost is a really nice cocktail, I would recommend it if you like bourbon. We finished the night with the GF almond and olive oil cake that was to die for. Excellent dinner and experience overall.

Great service, understandings and considerate! We were visiting from Maryland, and my fiance can't cast gluten as it makes her extremely ill. We ordered and the server made a note for the kitchen but, her food came out with bread (gluten) on the plate, so we had to send it back immediately. They were so accommodating, took it back and bright out a new plate that was perfect. The food here is delicious and I'll definitely be back!

I really loved the fact that the menu had plenty of vegan and gluten free options. I would recommend the black pepper tofu and broccoli. Cozy, lively atmosphere and our waitress was such a sweetheart. Would definitely eat here again.

Service was so friendly! There is a variety of options for vegans, gluten free, vegetarian, and people who can eat about anything. Everything was delicious from the Thai iced tea to the Crying Tiger and pad Thai. Monsoon Siam is located on the downtown mall in Charlottesville. Great spot to go for a work lunch, night with friends, or a date!

Delightful place and great food! Tofu balls were gluten free and the sauce was delicious. *Provided Tamari sauce which is a huge plus as I am extremely wheat intolerant.

Eat here now!! Just find a place to park an and walk on over! Great vegetarian options, even delicious without the bread!! I was a little sad that it is all sandwiches, but the fried green tomato on greens was amazing!! So even if you're GF or reducing gluten, this is the spot. The lovely and attentive waiter informed me that they have a separate fryer for GF! So thoughtful. I'm excited to come back and try more deliciousness. I was sad to see blue grass grill close, but this is actually amazing and I'm glad they're here ♥️
