We thoroughly enjoyed the gluten-free fish and chips, asparagus dip, and drinks. The ambiance was wonderful, and the service was friendly and attentive. I’ve been craving fish and chips for a while now, and I finally found a place that satisfies my craving.
I LOVE this place. The space is super large, clean and open. The service is great. And the ciders are solid. I like that they are constantly rotating and trying new ones out. But if and when they are too weird for me, they always keep some on the menu permanently (the pedestrian cider is a fav).
I have celiac and there are plenty of GF options and staff are always helpful in making sure nothing is cross contaminated.

There was a 2 hour wait to get into Au Cheval; and many people we talked to highly recommended we go there. They said it was an amazing burger, and we needed to try it out.
So... we waited our two hours and wandered other establishments, wondering what this burger would be like.
Firstly, hype is a dangerous thing, especially in the food industry, and when we were finally allowed to enter and eat we noticed that the menu was down to Earth and there wasn't anything too crazy or unique...
But.... I tell you what, it was a delicious hamburger, and the place reminded me of a nostalgic diner feel with a modern hipster take; it was highly enjoyable to be there and to just experience your meal with whoever you chose to share it with.
They took their food and their reputation very seriously; they paid attention to every detail, and they were highly aware of food allergies and how to navigate the menu for people with Gluten Allergies like myself.
The hamburger was delcious... complimented with their in-house "Dijonaise" sauce.
The coffee was amazing... but what made our experience even better was when my buddy asked for some real cream for his coffee.
Our waitress proceeded to go into the kitchen and to make a fresh blend of milk and cream to ensure that he could thoroughly enjoy his meal and coffee.
The food was tasty, the staff was great, and you could tell that everyone who worked there cared about the customer experience and the reputation of the restaurant.
Highly recommend you grab a bite when you can.
Allergy friendly options are available.
Great spot — highly recommend!
Beautiful decor and ambiance with solid drinks and food to match.
What we ordered:
Whipped feta with truffle honey — delicious
Feta pistachio pesto
Gluten-free spiced beluga lentils
Drinks were great too. If you’re into something on the sweeter side, try the Lavender Knees Bees.
All around, 10/10
More than half the menu is gluten free. They use separate fryers and prep space for the gluten free items. Everything is vegan. Soy free options too. Very yummy!!
A really cute vibe inside, food was varied and all very safely marked for gluten free or veg. Service was great as well. I got the veg platter special for Lunar New Year and my partner got the chickpea curry and loved it. The appam was very fresh and fluffy, and the yucca bites for an appetizer were great. We got ice cream and the rice cake for dessert because it looked so good, even though we were full. It was delicious! We'll definitely be back!
Had a work lunch here last week, and was happy to see there is a separate gluten free menu available, so I didn't get my hopes up about something I couldn't actually have. My dish came out with a little flag indicating "allergy" so there was no confusion at the table. Most importantly, the food was very good!
I attended a baby shower held in the private back room of The Range. A delicious gluten free brunch buffet was served. Everything was hot and tasty. Especially loved the turnip omelets. I love trying new dishes. The service was spot on.
My sister has celiac and hasn’t had fried chicken in over 20 years. She ordered it and was absolutely blown away at how delicious it was. The executive chef came to our table to ask how the meal was for her. The manager spoke with us and was very friendly attentive. She sent us a gluten free dessert to enjoy. This was one of the most enjoyable meals and experience we have ever had. The staff are exceptional.

The food was delicious. And the atmosphere was just what I would want from an upscale pub. The one issue was I had to do my order 3 times. Once with the original waitress, once bc of a gluten sensitivity which I had explained to the waitresses and once to the person serving it bc there was no Cheese on my cheese burger. Otherwise great.
Avli is a beautiful place with great food and good atmosphere. My wife and I are both gluten free and our server, Jen, was knowledgeable about our dietary restrictions.
We began with hummus and tzatziki with gluten free pita which was a real treat, followed by grilled octopus. All of the above were delicious.
We split the lamb chops with broccoli and roasted potatoes. The chops were tender and flavorful. My only complaint was the roasted potatoes were heavy on lemon for my taste but but, honestly, reminiscent of yaya’s.
Special shoutout to Jen our server who was professional and personable adding to our entire experience.
Highly recommended.
Our waitress Emily was an angel ! Took my gluten allergy into consideration and provided great recommendations. I feel she was often described as a pleasure to have in class. Will be coming back soon!
I reserved a table here online for my anniversary and they reached out to ask what my partner's name was - they ended up giving us customized menus with a congratulatory message on them, and also gave us a free creme brulee. Food was good, decent gluten free options (vegetarian options were present but somewhat lacking, my partner got a pasta without the chicken). Cocktail variety and taste was also good according to my partner. They had a nicely decorated interior and a patio, we sat inside but I'm sure the patio would be lovely too on a nice night, it's a relatively quiet neighborhood. Overall enjoyable experience and would return again for a future celebration.
I don't quite understand how, but every time we come back here, it's better than the last. Go immediately.
Many different types of dishes, and around half of them are gluten free.
Classic Chicago experience with wonderful GF food! I spoke to the manager who assured me that all their meats and sauces are gluten free. They have a dedicated fryer so I was able to enjoy the delicious fries. I also got the coleslaw and beans as a side! Really great experience.
Celiac friendly
