Gluten-Free Restaurant Week Dinner Menu

January 7, 2025

At Celeste, we are committed to providing exceptional dining experiences for all guests, including those with gluten sensitivities. This Chicago Restaurant Week, we invite you to indulge in a specially curated gluten-free dinner menu for just $45. This three-course meal blends classic flavors with modern twists. By making a few simple adjustments to our regular menu, we ensure that gluten-free diners can fully enjoy every course without compromise.

First Course – Our Gluten-Free Starter

For the first course for Restaurant Week, guests can enjoy a light, refreshing salad crafted to be naturally gluten-free by omitting the lavash accompaniment:

Arugula Salad – Peppery arugula paired with chickpea aioli, red onion, and confit garlic. This dish is rich in flavor yet light and crisp, offering the perfect gluten-free start to your meal. (Lavash omitted to ensure it is gluten-free.)

Second Course – Hearty Gluten-Free Entrees

For the second course, guests can choose between two hearty and satisfying dishes. Both options have been adjusted to provide gluten-free alternatives without sacrificing flavor:

Rigatoni (GF Pasta Substitute) – A comforting pasta dish made with zucchini, summer squash, pequillo marinara, leek cream, and topped with parmesan. By substituting gluten-free pasta, this dish maintains its rich, creamy texture and bold flavors.

Honey Braised Short Ribs – Tender, fall-apart short ribs served with demi-glace, scallion whipped potatoes, and pickled red onion. (Crispy leeks omitted to ensure this dish is gluten-free.) This indulgent dish highlights deep, savory flavors with a touch of sweetness.

Dessert – Sweet Gluten-Free Endings

End your dining experience with a simple yet satisfying gluten-free dessert option:

Vanilla Bean Gelato – A classic, smooth, and creamy dessert that offers a light yet indulgent finish to your meal. Perfectly refreshing and free from gluten.
