Best Gluten Free Restaurants in Tangletown

We had a wonderful afternoon tea at the Queen Mary with a group of friends celebrating a birthday. It was delicious, as always, and the service was especially good. Kudos to the Queen Mary! I grew up overseas and attended a British boarding school with tea every day, so I have high standards. The QM never disappoints. In fact, I’ve had tea at the Four Seasons in DC and in Seattle, tea at Bouchart Gardens in Victoria, and tea in Hong Kong at the Penninsula (back in the day) and none of them were as good as Seattle’s Queen Mary. It is one of my favorite places.

The food, as always, was wonderful. My o Lu complaint is the timing of the food coming out of the kitchen. Everything came at the same time! We ordered pita and spreads. We thought those would come first and we could enjoy them with our first glass of wine. As it was - everything arrived together. Not ideal. We ordered espresso with our dessert. It came and then we waited and waited for dessert. Espresso was cold by the time it came out. They could work on their timing!

Love the woman chef who runs the kitchen at Conversation! We enjoyed the Bone-in Halibut very much! Good wine list too.

Really good food and excellent service. Our server made very good suggestions which was important since this was our first visit. The only small knock is the cocktail menu. My drink was smallish and just didn’t measure up to the rest of the experience. We had read about the chicken thigh starter and it really was delightful. So was the mushroom side dish. Bang on good. The pork belly was fatty but I think that it was supposed to be. We’ll certainly return.

Really delicious and loved that it was gluten free. We all wanted so many things on the menu. But we had an 8:15 pm reservation and unfortunately a number of things were sold out. Still, a solid place to recommend.
