Happy Dog

Lakewood/Cleveland border

Jane shares:

It’s my favorite GF spot.

They offer a GF menu in-house.  All their Dogs are served on GF buns; they
offer a vegan field dog (which I believe is GF but you’ll want to
double-check before endorsing it); they have 50 toppings to choose from,
many of which are GF; and they offer at least one GF beer.  I wouldn’t
recommend using the online menu on their site; it’s not the current menu
and the toppings and beer offerings regularly change.  Note: their mac and
cheese is NOT made with GF pasta, one time I made a poor (inebriated) choice.

Diane adds: I called Happy Dog and the women with whom I spoke said that they do NOT have GF buns and that most GF patrons just order without a bun. Please double check when you visit and let us know about your experience.

We ate at Deagan’s Kitchen in Lakewood last night. They have a regular menu on which they hi- lighted GF items in green. The ones I chose turned out to be quite bland – a crab and avocado salad plus a vegetarian curry. Their fried items are done in a shared fryer so definitely not an option for celiacs. It was busy and had a huge, younger adult bar crowd. I might return if in the area but would not make it a destination restaurant as it is just too bland for me. However, I do appreciate that the owners have identified potentially GF options and the waitress recognized the difference between folks who must follow GF dining versus those who just choose it for whatever reason. This is a good choice for younger adults with celiac who want a sports bar type atmosphere to hang out with friends.

GF Menu?: No

What did you order?: Pork

Was the server knowledgeable?: Marginally

Comments: I was very disappointed in Fahrenheit. There was no gluten-free menu, and only three options on the entire menu (no desserts) were gluten free. If you go, you’d better like pork, because two of the three were pork. The server seemed uncertain about my needs–recommending a gluten-filled dessert in spite of my careful explanation of what I needed.

I had lunch this week at the B Spot on Chagrin at Eton.  A manager came to the table to explain my options – bunless burger or chicken.  All toppings were ok, except grilled onions.  No fries, as onion rings are made in the same oil.  Condiments and sauces are on the table and a pickle bar, with pickled tomatoes and onions, in addition to 2 kinds of cucumbers, is located in the center of the restaurant. The manager brought out a dish of the very delicious Coffee BBQ sauce and an assortment of fantastic pickled veggies at my request. One note:  In the service of our large table of mostly gluten eaters, my chicken arrived with a fry on the plate.  The server immediately returned the dish to the kitchen and the manager hand carried a newly made serving to me.

Well, I will not be blogging happy comments about this place. Despite the “it’s no problem to do GF” that I was told yesterday, it was a problem.  I had a lentil soup and fresh salad but everyone else had wonderful hors d’oeuvres and entrées and desserts. Part of the problem was our waitress and part was the restaurant was packed and very noisy.  (And to add insult, the waitress divided the others’ hors d’oeuvres among all 5 of us and then charged me double.  So not only did I not get to eat it, I was charged twice the amount!)  I will not be returning to give them a second chance – there are so many places I really enjoy with excellent service and menus.

So, I do not suggest going to Spice if you are in the Gordon Square/Detroit Shoreway neighborhood.  I recommend Luxe down the street.
