Best Gluten Free Restaurants in Brookland / Brentwood

We met friends from out of town at True Food, as they were staying at a nearby hotel. We thought we were booking a brunch reservation. Somehow, the reality that brunch is only served on weekends wasn't clear when I made the reservation, so I was a bit disappointed that brunch foods weren't available on a Friday. The food we ordered was tasty, however, & the service was friendly & efficient. The squash pizza was especially good & perfect for splitting. One of the diners was not enthusiastic about his burger (He said it was rather dry...), but we all appreciated being able to sit, eat slowly, & chat eagerly without being rushed by the server.

You can’t go wrong with this location. It’s our go to spot for many dinners, celebrations and impromptu events! The food was DELICIOUS and Dan rendered phenomenal service!! Ask for him! Enjoy and thank me later.

We had a GORGEOUS dinner with my in-laws the night before Thanksgiving. We've heard great things about Iron Gate, but truly everything from the service, to the items we ordered (and multiple little extras the chef sent out) were extraordinary. The chocolate dessert, we all agreed, was one of the best of our lives. Truly a hospitality-driven experience and we can't wait for an excuse to head back.

Both the sign-in crew at the entryway podium as well as the wait staff in the dining room were exceptionally helpful and accommodating to me when I came very early for my reservation. And, then, once my guest arrived, the wait staff continued to go above and beyond. Many menu options tempted us and we were pleased with our choices -- good looking and delicious!

Very warm and welcoming service. Excellent food. A lovely and interesting space, with visual and tactile treats. And—in warmer weather—a great space upstairs that is open to the outdoors.
