The Oak Barrel

Valley View

I much enjoyed lunch yesterday at The Oak Barrel.  They have an extensive gluten free menu and the server was very knowledgeable and made several trips to the kitchen confirming french fries were gluten free, but the house made blue corn chips were not made in a dedicated fryer.  They do not have GF bread, so you would have to byob (bring your own bun) for a burger.  I had the Yucatan BBQ Pork taco, sans shell, and the tender well-flavored pork was served platter style with a bowl of tasty slaw.  I did not miss the shell.  I also tried the Chef’s Garden Pickled Vegetables and was treated to a nice selection of pickled radish, carrot and rutabaga slices in addition to the expected cucumber.  There are a number of vegetarian friendly menu items.  The server said the restaurant would soon announce a Sunday brunch menu and promised it would have gluten free options.

Thanks, Jennifer, for the information about  Moosehead Saloon.

They list the gluten-free options on the opening page of their plastic menu! It only has 5 items and everything is bun-less, but the food was good! I had a grilled chicken sandwich off the regular menu. Yum. The waitress when asking if I wanted a side said “one of our staff (can’t remember the guy’s exact title) is GF and doesn’t do the usual chips. Would you like something else?” They don’t have GF desert yet, but are thinking about it.
