Nectar: Urban Cantina

Nectar is not celiac safe. They are very nice, the food is delicious and the wait staff are knowledgeable and reassuring but the last two times I have eaten here I have gotten sick. Both times I communicated I had celiac disease and deliberately asked what was safe.Wait staff understood and made suggestions for gluten free items. Huge bummer, please be aware.

Amazing place! Very knowledgeable. Server was gf as well. Pretty much everything is or can be made gf. The spicy birria taco wasn’t unfortunately bc they make it with beer. Got fried Brussels taco and fish taco. Both amazing. It was so great to be able to eat tortilla chips and dip like a normal person!

I agree with the review to order the queso and chips—really good. I had the chicken fajita bowl. They take making it gluten-free without cross contamination seriously. Great service and food.

So many gluten free options! This is my go to place! They have a dedicated fryer for chips! Only a few things on the menu that I can’t have! These things are obvious like nothing fried or the burrito. Every time we’ve ordered takeout that food has been clearly marked gluten free! They have an allergy button on the online ordering.

Such a good fresh place! I had the harvest salad and was informed it was gluten allergy safe. It was delicious. They also have great coffee, juice and to go snacks.

I had the beef tacos and they were delicious. I skipped the chip as they have panko fried stuff on the menu and didn't asked about the existence of a dedicated fryer.

Run, don’t walk! Delicious food, reasonably priced and celiac safe. They had a fantastic outdoor space to eat, for kids to play and live music. Sad I don’t live closer!

Update 7/20/21. Something has changed. I had chips, salsa, guacamole & tortilla soup. I’ve had these things before but got sick this week after eating. So unfortunate. I will eat at Sunflower cafe instead.

First time at Nectar. Ordered the Carne Asade Tacos. The servers were knowledgeable about celiac, cleaned the cooking space, and changed the gloves. Food came out quickly and tasted amazing. Will definitely come back.

Food was amazing. I loved the chicken taco I had. There are potentials for trace/CC. Chips were not safe, due to shared fryer, from my understanding. I think the waitress had an outside understanding if celiac but she was super careful to check and double check things with me. I did not get sick here and would definitely frequent it if I lived locally.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Absolutely delicious! The parking lot was packed when we got there and they had outdoor seating. We sat inside and the server was knowledgeable and friendly. My 10 year old and I ended up having steak street tacos as some things were out of stock. My fiance had a steak burrito bowl and kept saying every few minutes he was finding a new flavor. It was delicious! The decor was incredibly neat and gave me some inspiration for my own home. We never got sick and that was the biggest plus.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Good food, good service, They do not have a gluten free menu but they are very knowledgeable and can make most of it gluten free.

This place does everything they can to ensure that your food is celiac safe. The manager, David, was amazing! He took the time to talk to us before we ordered. Then he took our drink and food order, retuned and told us that everyone had been told to change gloves, etc. The food was great! But what I appreciate the most, he took me seriously and did all he could to ensure my food was prepared in the best way possible to keep me safe! Will definitely go back when we are back in the area!!

No gf menu, but my waitress was helpful and knowledgeable. Margaritas are gf. Tortilla chips have a separate fryer. I’m dairy free and they put cheese in the salad. That was a little disappointing, but I was able to eat around it

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place is a GF gem! Menu not marked but staff is extremely helpful and knowledgeable. They take extra caution to ensure items are prepared GF.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We ate here for dinner and breakfast. The dinner was fantastic and they were great with it. I got quite sick eating breakfast from here (a few days later). Had a smoothie bowl. They do make their tortillas in house, so there is airborne flour if that is an issue for you.

Dedicated fryer so the chips and salsa are safe. Had a burrito bowl with steak and it was really good. No issues, and the waitress knew her stuff and was very helpful.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Safe tortilla chips, safe migas for brunch. Helpful staff with menu questions, but most everything could be done GF.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Wondering food. Great app when you are traveling

Staff was so helpful, food was amazing! So delicious! Their quest and chips were awesome and my husband said they were the best tacos he has ever had.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I eat here at least once a week and feel very confident each time that they take precautions for me. So much of their menu is GF already, it’s nice to have so many options!

Amazing food! I’m celiac and didn’t get sick. Great options (the nachos were bomb!) and they even have gluten free treats like donuts and cupcakes!

The food was good and the staff was friendly. There is plenty of options and the prices were reasonable.

Celiac friendly?

Excellent nachos and tacos. Save for celiac in the dedicated fryer. Delish!

They know how to do gluten free right. Dedicated fryer for delicious chips,salsa just a little spicy, guacamole was so good! We filled up on chips and shared two tacos, carne asada and pulled pork. So good. Lots of choices. Server knew about gluten and told me which dishes were off limits or how they could make them gluten free. Great place. Wished I lived in the area to go back for more.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff knows all about GF. Excellent bowls and dressings. Very good food.

Celiac friendly?

Olé!! Taco Tuesday!!! Gluten free beer, chips, tacos ( carne asada & grilled fish for me) were delicious. Knowledgeable staff (thank you Cameron) and good deliverer (Michael)

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Tacos were great! Especially the blackened fish tacos. Bartender was friendly and service was quick. Most of menu can be made GF.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place was a great find! Most of their menu is gluten free, so you have plenty of options. The staff is kind and willing to check on items they are unsure of. Not a dedicated restaurant, but they do have a dedicated fryer. Food is yummy and flavorful. Will definitely be back!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They are very aware and educated on celiac disease. They have a dedicated fryer for their chips and almost the entire menu is gluten free! The food is excellent, hip restaurant, great vibe and Taco Tuesdays have live music! Gotta love Nashville!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The waitress was so nice! Went back to the kitchen to check on the tortilla chips because she was unsure. They’re fried in their own fryer, and they’re made of corn tortilla so they’re safe! The marinades for the meat has no gluten and they have corn tacos. They do have a few items on the menu that are flour tortilla based, but you don’t miss them because the tacos are SO GOOD.
