EAT: Table 26, West Palm Beach, FL

West Palm Beach, FL and its summer-like weather in the dead of winter bring people from all over the world to its sunny beaches and plush green golf courses. Table 26 brings global cuisine to the heart of the town for a great fusion of flavors and some food allergy free dining. Located just a few blocks from the Norton Museum of Art, Table 26 offers quaint indoor and outdoor dining with an inviting modern twist. 

Our server, Nicole, was very knowledgeable about the menu, as well as which dishes were gluten and corn free. She excitedly told us that the bread served in the restaurant at the beginning of the meal was gluten free. Made with yucca flour and cheese, the gooey little rolls were really tasty. We even took a couple home for breakfast the next morning!

Nicole went through the menu with us recommending certain dishes and letting us know which ones would be safe or could be modified to be safe. 
I ordered the gluten free 8oz Filet Mignon with Smashed Potatoes and Bernaise Sauce on the side. The filet was cooked to a nice medium and the smashed potatoes were creamy. 
My dinner companion ordered the Grilled Fish of the Day, which was gluen free and consisted of Branzino, a European Sea Bass, with Carrots and Cauliflower topped with Olive Tapenade. Nicole highly recommended the dish. It was pretty flavorful and the Bernaise sauce from the filet complimented it nicely. 
We inquired about the gluten free status of the Truffle and Parmesan Fries as a side item, but found out that they are not fried in a dedicated fryer. Nicole recommended the Spaghetti Squash, so we went with that. Wow, it was delish! Spaghetti Squash with cheese and topped with pesto. Nicole told us that she had to sub the cheese normally in the dish for a cheddar cheese to make the dish gluten free in case we wanted to order it in the future. It was really cool that she was so knowledgable about food allergies and went the extra mile to make sure we had a safe meal.

I have only been to a couple of restaurants in West Palm Beach, but Table 26 tops the list so far. The food was fabulous and the staff was accommodating with our food allergies. If you have a chance to check out the restaurant, be ready to partake in the pre-meal bread and let me know what you think!
