I want to preface this by saying I LOVE Cooper’s Hawk, I’ve had a wine membership for years and have never once (until now) had a problem eating at any of the 3 locations I’ve been to. They’ve always been very knowledgeable and accommodating. I always tell my server I have celiac disease when I order, even with the gluten free menu because I have significant symptoms, and they’ve always been wonderful about it.
That being said, I found a piece of gnocchi in my risotto there tonight and consequently am now in one of the worst symptom flares I’ve been in. I alerted my server to the issue right away and she and the manager were very apologetic and comped my meal. They even helped wheel me out to my car because I have POTS as well and gluten always triggers syncopal episodes for me.
I‘ve worked in restaurants before, and I know there’s no way to guarantee no cross contamination with a shared kitchen, so I don’t really fault Cooper’s Hawk. I’d still recommend them to anyone gluten free, celiac or not. Just wanted to make sure anyone else with intense symptoms knows this happened so they can use their best judgement the next time they go 🤍

Love their chicken parm and shrimp appetizer. Eat here often without any issues. The manager has to double check your plate before it is served.

Dedicated GF side of kitchen. Best bread at beginning of the meal (it makes a horrible soggy bun for the burger though lol)
I eat here several times a month due to their food safety and wine.

Review
Hubs and I went on a date!
They had a fully gluten free menu. Our waitress was amazing. She asked about everything. I told her I had celiacs. She wrote it down, that they need to wipe down and change gloves.
Comes back with a fully gluten free bread for me...that was delicious.
She even gave me 2 full gluten free loaves free of charge to take home.
Best experience I've had so far since being diagnosed
No issues next day!

I’ve been there a few times and have never gotten sick! They have a ton of gf options and it’s a scratch kitchen, so their gf prevention measures are supposed to be good

Our server and the manager were extremely knowledgeable about gluten free. They said they take cross contamination very seriously. The have an extensive menu for gluten free with sandwiches and pasta available. I am highly sensitive and had no reaction. The bread that they bring for the table is just an udis hamburger bun.

We were excited to find this restaurant, because they seemed to take many precautions and were very knowledgeable about GF options. Our daughter was happy because it tasted good, however, it was obviously not GF, because she was sick for hours.

Review
I did not ask questions about dedicated fryers or space, and I am celiac, so make sure if you are super sensitive you check first. They use Barilla GF pasta and it was great. I had chicken carbonara and it was fantastic. Also flourless chocolate cake. And they brought out a warm GF bread with butter which was delish. They have buns as well but didn’t specify the brand, I don’t like any GF buns so far, but I asked if the warm loaf of bread could be the bun and he said sure...so I would eat a burger there with that as the bun. The menu was a completely separate one you have to ask your server for.

This was a great experience for my don. They brought out gluten free bread for him while we were eating our bread. He ate the entire roll; he said it was good. He was provided a gluten free menu. He ordered the gluten free burger and was pleased. The food was great and they wanted to assure us that they were sensitive to allergies.

This is the second location of Cooper's Hawk that we have tried and it was just as good as the location in Miami. I think Cooper's Hawk has the largest and most diverse gluten free menu that I have ever seen and the food is very delicious. I had a parmesan crusted chicken breast (fried) with mashed potatoes and green beans and loved every bite. The GF bread that was brought out before the meals is the best I have had anywhere.

Super expansive, delicious gluten free menu. My pasta dish was a perfect al dente, and the Caesar salad’s dressing was creamy and delicious.
