Absolutely loved this place! If you live around the area or happen to be in town this bakery is definitely a go to! I am 100% gluten free with celiac and when I tell you this is the best tasting baked goods I’ve had since I started my journey! I got the cinnamon rollup, beignet donuts, donut holes, muffin (berries), and quiche! Donuts were my fav! It is a little bit pricey but if you’re celiac you already know the drill! Definitely worth it especially when you get a little bit of everything!

We found this place on the Happy Cow app and are all happy that we did. It was a really good find that all 3 of us were able to eat a good meal and enjoy the atmosphere. I ran across the GM, Cookie, upon arrival and he was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. He answered all of my questions regarding gluten free and vegan options and told me how they work. He suggested a few cider options for me to try since they don't have any gluten reduced beers on site. I tried their tropical cider and wasn't disappointed. They also hand Florida Seltzer, which was an added bonus. Two of us got the Beyond Burger for dinner. I got mine with no bun, since it's not vegan, and one of my kids got the gluten free bun. We both got fries also, but decided to try their Louisiana fries instead of just plain for one of the orders. They were really good, but definitely have a kick!! My other kid got a Caesar Salad and bacon cheeseburger (sensing a theme here!). She said both were great. She rated this Burger at the top of her list from all 3 she's had on the trip. So that's a big win! Overall, great atmosphere, service, food and beverages. So if you haven't stopped by here yet and are in the area, you definitely should give them a shot!

Best gluten free Nutella banana bread muffin!! I loved it! Would come back just for that alone. I also ordered a Cortado and asked for a side of sparkling water to pair it. They were very accommodating and the cashier was super welcoming. Only downside is parking kinda far especially when it rains 🥲 it’s worth it though.

They are very accommodating for food allergies and have gluten-free pasta. Also, the service and atmosphere were both great. However, I have a few complaints: the pasta needed more salt and/or seasoning and was a very small portion for what we paid and we left still feeling hungry. Typical for a fancy restaurant I suppose though. Another complaint is that my wine tasted stale like it came from a bottle they opened a week ago.

We discovered this place by a coincidence. It was a great coincidence! Fully vegan fully delicious. We took a quick lunch to go, the staff is extremely helpful with your order, friendly and skillful. We got the goddess bowl and sandwich. There are nice gluten-free options and it's good to mention that they do a lot of stuff such as sauces or seitan homemade, which is awesome. We enjoyed it all!

Accommodates all of my allergies [gluten\wheat and shellfish]. But Impossible to reach when your online order is wrong. And it has been wrong multiple times, so I'm leaving a comment. I order the same thing every time. Sometimes it's the wrong item[s] and sometimes stuff is just plain missing. I check my order each time to make sure I did nothing wrong

Visited tonight to celebrate a friend’s birthday. I’m gluten free and it can be hard to find a really good gluten free bread— their bread basket was amazing! I also got to try two different pasta dishes, the classic Tagliatelle alla Bolognese and the Carrot Infused Pappardelle with Tuscan Rabbit Ragout (the actual pasta for gluten free was exchanged for a penne). They were such different dishes, and both were very well done, with great textures and flavors— the rabbit ragout may have been my favorite of the two. Also had a great drink- the Negroni Conte— the Earl Grey infused Campari was really lovely and complimentary. Would definitely recommend!

Celiac’s Review: We felt safe here for gluten free sushi. A lot of places have so much fried sushi that they go as far to say that all of their rolls are not celiac safe. And the prices are not bad at all for having a front and center OTR view. They also let us bring our own gluten free cake to celebrate a birthday!

Another fantastic meal at Nolia - I had the chicken gizzards, carrots, cornbread skillet and the duck and they were all outstanding. Great cocktails too. The ambiance is also great - nolia has somehow managed to create a bustling atmosphere that you can still have a conversation in, which is really important as most restaurants are too noisy, imo. Good gluten free options as well!

Our favorite special occasion restaurant! My fiancé has extreme allergies to gluten, dairy, egg and nuts and this place has never failed him. I’ve tried a variety of menu items and highly recommend the filet (not the same but pretty dang close to rubys), the Mac and cheese, the eggplant Parmesan, focaccia, French porked Parmesan, and butter cake. The only thing I wasn’t super impressed with was the steak and frites. Service is always outstanding. The always give us little cards when we go for birthdays. Sitting outside isn’t terrible when it’s chilly because they have heaters, however no fans for the summer. The Expresso martini is my favorite of anywhere, however I do prefer the cocktail menu at their sister restaurant Five on Vine and wish they would change up their cocktail menu a bit. I also wish they would remove the credit card hold for reservations but luckily I haven’t ran into an emergency where I’d need to cancel yet. I also think you could just reschedule to a different time to avoid the fee.

One of our favorite special occasion restaurants. They do a great job of handling my fiancés severe gluten/dairy/nut allergies. Service is always great. I recommend the fried green tomatoes, truffle fettuccine, vodka rigatoni, and five fries. The only dish I’ve tried that I did not enjoy/think was worth the money is the grilled artichoke. Kind of messy and wasteful. The drinks are pricy but amazing. I tried the white margarita to see why it was so expensive and it genuinely was one of the best margaritas I’ve ever had. The espresso martini is good, but I prefer their sister restaurant , losantis. I would recommend going with as many people as you can get so you can share/try more dishes. Would recommend a reservation the later you go/bigger the group you have.

This review is specific to catering - if you haven't had a Bagelry bagel yet, you need to run immediately to either location to try 1 or an entire dozen. And then, you need to plan a catering drop off for your next office gathering or party. The Premium Breakfast Buffet that we just had with meats, cheese, eggs, bagels and fruit was stellar. It's a great set-up (and hot!), best quality and a good price for what you are getting. And now with their gluten free option, the menu is in inclusive and awesome for all. Thanks, Bagelry!

The best brownies you'll ever find. In particular, the salted caramel pretzel brownies are divine. We ordered from here for our wedding reception. Jillian, the owner, was communicative, helpful, and so wonderful to work with. We got 2 trays of brownies and 1 tray of cookies for about 50 people. They were a huge hit and we had just enough left over to enjoy the following week. Jillian was also very helpful in accommodating for our guests with dietary restrictions - individually wrapped gluten-free brownies and dairy-free cookies.
