Pappadeaux

I've dined here a few times and always had good experiences. The waiters have the manager go over your order to be sure everything ordered can be prepared gluten-free. Great, right? I think someone failed to go over the precautions with the people in the kitchen because half way through my salad I bit into a crouton! It seems as if someone in the kitchen said "Ooops - this isn't supposed to have wheat" and then picked the croutons off and missed one instead of just throwing it out and starting over. I was sick for a week and now I'm afraid to eat there again.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I would have to disagree with a few of the reviews here. I had a very pleasant experience at this restaurant. I also have a dairy allergy as well as gluten and the manager came out and talked with me several times to make sure they were doing everything they could to accommodate. They prepared what I ordered differently than on menu to ensure as little cross contamination as possible. My meal was fantastic. (Chicken) I was impressed with they way they took care of me. Have not had that happen before. Personally, I would recommend this place. It is expensive but if you let them know that you have an allergy, they will take it seriously, which is what I look for in restaurants. Yes, they do not have GF bread. But their menu has a pretty nice selection (for a GF menu).

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They do have a gluten free menu and offer to alter any meal they can. I wish I had ordered of the menu. I had blackened Costa Rica mahi off the lunch menu. I had to sub white rice instead of grits. Fine. No lump crab with lemon butter sauce. I had less than half the food for $22. Very disappointing. The fish itself was wonderful. Staff tried hard but still a disappointing, very expensive lunch.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I was disappointed. I expected a better selection. plus, I saw no fried alligator!

Fantastic gluten free menu! The seafood Cobb salad was delicious and they were very careful about making sure my food was gluten free!

Alligator is to die for... My favorite item on the menu.

Server was extremely knowledgeable and the manager came in to ensure all items were celiac safe. Very well handled and tasted amazing even came with a little wooden stick that says prepared GF

It was a terrible experience unfortunately. When we sat down I asked for the gluten free menu and let the waitress know of my intolerance/allergy. She assured me they would be cautious in the kitchen and sent the manager over to assure us we’d be well taken care of. After ordering they brought out my food with the fish I asked for but with the dirty rice. The dirty rice is not what I ordered nor was it even on the gluten free menu. The manager came over and I explained to him how my plate was mistaken and he then said “so you want broccoli not the rice” and I told him that it’s not the mistake of the order it’s the fact that it’s clearly not gluten free. They then sent my new plate 25 mins later which I understand maybe they were understaffed but when someone comes with an allergy I thought it would’ve been a priority and I would expect the manager to be informed with this kind of thing.

They just have a small gluten free menu, but it was delicious. The manager came by to ask about my allergy and confirmed that my order was gluten free. I don’t know about cross-contamination since I’m not celiac, but I was very pleasantly surprised by how seriously they seemed to take allergies.
