We were in Chicago for business. My friend has severe allergies, gluten, nuts, strawberries, eggs. We selected Mon Ami Gabi based on options for gluten free. We made reservation and arrived about 20 minutes early. Entrance to the hotel is gorgeous. Front desk was friendly and helpful. Making sure we parked at the correct valet location (there's 2 one for residence one for restaurant. They brought us to the bar while we waited for seating. Barkeep was very friendly and very efficient. We didn't wait more then 20 minutes for our table. We were seated and we ensured they were aware of the concerns for gluten and other allergens. Waiter already was aware thanks to OpenTable reservation, I'd added a comment so they'd know ahead. They were extremely considerate pointed out the dishes that are GF. We skipped an appetizer and ordered dinner. The wait staff were friendly without being overly. Food was delivered quickly and cooked to perfection. I ordered medium rare beef and my friend ordered salmon almondine(without the almonds). Food was flavorful and delicious. Not only was our server attentive but the other staff ensured we were comfortable, well taken care of, and had everything we needed. They cleared dishes and glasses quietly while you ate without being distributive and made sure the water glasses were always full. I'd highly recommend the restaurant if you're in the area. For a Thursday the place was Busy. Reservations highly recommended. A mixture of date nights, family dinners (with younger kids) special occasions. Some folks were dressed up others in flannels and it all worked.

Great tapas restaurant with a marked gluten-free menu. Just check with your server about cross contact issues. I love the brussel sprout salad and the chirizo wrapped dates!

I am so happy we stopped here for dinner. The staff were knowledgeable and so kind to me when I told them of my gluten and dairy allergies. Service was amazing and the food was sublime. I missed eating Italian for fear of cross contamination but they reassured me pasta were cooked separately. What a lovely place! I will be revisiting when I'm back in town. Edit: Forgot to add, my husband got an Amaretto sour and he said it was the BEST one he's had.

If your after a really good, quick, counter-service Mediterranean bowl or falafel that is healthy and much better than garbage fast food, this is a great place. Lots of gluten free options including a pita bread. The food was fresh, the hummus tasty, and sauces flavorful (tahini my fav). Lots of yummy rainbow veggie spectrum sides. We will go back often when looking for something fast and delicious. Update 6/12/23: We are here at least once a week!

Went with our adult kids for birthday celebrations. Delighted that all the appetizers that needed bread were enjoyed by all with their toasted gluten free bread brought alongside the naan and sourdough. Even the delicious Truffle Bucatini was prepared with gluten free pasta. The Chicken Tikka Masala and Steak & Ale Pot Pies were amazing. Service was attentive and friendly. Wish we could have had a table in the small room next to the bar area instead of being right by the bar but it the end we thoroughly enjoyed our meals

Quite pricey for very simple dishes (some of which were only just okay). There were a few standouts that I would definitely go back for though! My boyfriend who has celiac disease (gluten free) was able to eat here without an issue. Small menu with only a few gluten free options, but our server was very helpful and careful about his situation.

Ordered to go and pleased with the over the phone service and suggestions. The gluten free arancini were our favorite and had perfect texture. The ceviche was less convincing. Was disappointed that it wasn’t served with a chip of some kind and the best part was the oyster mushrooms but they were just a couple big piece’s on top of the beets rather than incorporated evenly. Dates were good, so was the caesar salad although a little wet. The strawberry cheesecake was disappointing. It tasted as if it was made with a puree rather than fresh strawberries and was okay at best texture/flavor wise. The restaurant looked really inviting inside and I would go back to try other items on the menu.

Just had their plant-based Pulled BBQ made from hibiscus flowers - DELICIOUS!!!! I love the flavor and texture and the whole combination is just amazing! Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about gluten free. They are trying to work on a gluten free empanada dough that can freeze and thaw well - I really hope they can come up with something. Smoothies and drinks look good. Plan on coming back for their other bowls (wish they had more than just 3 options).

I truly have an addiction to sweetgreen! It’s very clear what is gluten free and the staff is very knowledgeable about ingredients. My favorite is the harvest bowl!
