The house was amazing! And I got two gluten free which were so so good, the Maui and the Shiitake, out of all 3 I think the Holy Shiitake was a must try especially for gluten free vegetarian options, the garlic aioli and truffle was so delicious.

Ms. Rose’s Fine Food is a treat in Charleston! The food was absolutely delicious—highly recommend the avocado burger with the gluten-free bun, which was sturdy, flavorful, and a perfect match. The meatloaf with mashed potatoes and green beans was another standout. Don’t leave without trying the brisket fries—mouthwatering! The restaurant is spacious, the staff is warm and welcoming, and our waitress Raven gave top-notch service with great recommendations for us first-timers. We’ll definitely be back!

Always a fabulous meal. Lots of gluten free options, and they’re clearly marked on the menu. The dishes are continually changing, and I love that they update the menu for the day on their website by noon. It’s a very homey and relaxed atmosphere. It’s small enough that you don’t feel crowded and you don’t have to yell to the others at the table to converse. We’ve been several times, and will definitely continue to go.

They mark GF items on their menu, but not all are celiac safe. Their chips and fries are cooked in the same fryer as the breaded onion rings, so are not safe if you have celiac, but may be ok if you’re gluten intolerant. Most tacos can be made GF by substituting corn tortillas. And their birria tacos can be made without being fried or they can pan fry them if you ask. Burritos can be made into bowls. I honestly had an amazing lunch here and would come back. Just sad I couldn’t have their chips and salsa.

“Big salad” is a must to try. I was obsessed with their green olives on salad. For pizza I ordered mushroom with added bacon. Tasted so good. Next time I would ask them to do gluten free crust maybe which is thinner. I love thin crust. The only downfall of the pizza was excessive amount of grease which I think came from bacon and caramelized onion. Other than that, it was just perfect. Definitely try your own favorite pizza. You will love it.

The food was fresh, delicious, and there were great healthy options for vegetarians, vegans, and those with gluten sensitivities. The prices were great as well. The only complaints to be had were that it seemed a little small and cramped (though really not that bad) and that the frozen margaritas weren't really frozen margaritas...more like a margarita on the rocks with some ice slush swirled in. Still good, just not your typical frozen marg!

This has to be the worst experience I have had in Charleston and we eat out A LOT. I honestly rarely write reviews but this has really stuck with me and I don’t want someone else to waste their money like we did. This place is close to home and we wanted to grab something quick. It was also a Monday and a lot of places are closed, which is how/why we wound up deciding to try No Bull. First of all, the service was beyond terrible. I asked how the chicken fingers were, hoping to get some feedback to help me decide what to order and her response was “I don’t know, I’m gluten free and never tried them”. I was in the service industry for yearssss, so I was hoping she could at least let me know if they’re popular or if people tend to like them. Second, my boyfriend asked if he could change something on his burger (which was an easy change), and she said, “I’m not sure, I’ll ask”. She never got back to us about it, and when we got home to eat it, the change was never made. Lastly in regards to the service, after we gave her our card to close out, she came back and said that she closed out our tab on someone else’s card that had already left and asked if we would mind paying their tab so that she could close it out. Meanwhile, she didn’t give us an itemized receipt, and we definitely wound up paying a more expensive tab than we would have if it was our own tab. It was so odd. By the way, she literally only had 2 tables the whole time we were there. Us, and the other table we paid for. At that point, we just wanted to leave. Now for the food. We eat out at least 5 nights a week, and this was the worst food I’ve had yet in Charleston. The chicken fingers were quite literally flavorless and all of the breading was falling off. The fries were the worst fries I have ever had and we even tried putting them in our air fryer to make them better. Didn’t work. My boyfriend, who will even eat McDonald’s, couldn’t even finish his burger and wound up heating up leftovers we had in our fridge. Needless to say, we won’t be going back and I’m just all around frustrated by the whole experience.

The staff here is amazing. They want you to have the best experience possible. If you are gluten free just tell the staff and they will make it easy for you. The quality of the sushi is fresh. I will say I was disappointed that for sashimi you have to pay $0.75 per piece. The Nigiri pieces were very small fish to rice ratio (besides the egg) so that was not worth it at all. But there were plenty of roll options to choose from which was exciting and they had amazing egg drop soup. Be prepared for a pretty long wait for each order you have. But that is pretty typical. Overall, it was a very nice experience.

We weren't sure what to expect, but the space was big enough to not feel crowded and we were seated right away despite being pretty full. The menu is huge and has gluten-friendly (for obvious reasons, they can't ensure gluten-free, but my dietary restrictions aren't that strict) items clearly marked, plus a separate section for vegetarian options. Lindsey did a great job taking care of us and everyone was friendly. We will definitely be repeat customers.
