Cotton Hollow Kitchen

By far the best restaurant I have ever been to. I completely forgot to take pics of my steak and salmon cakes. I went there for Thanksgiving dinner and had salmon cakes, yum so good but the best thing was the main course! I had these little potatoes that melt in your mouth, I've never tasted anything like them, I asked why they were so good and found out it was Duck fat! I've never wanted to try Duck before but it is on my bucket list now 😁 and My steak O M G! Melted in my mouth 🤤
You have got to go to Cotton Hollow Kitchen! I promise you will not be disappointed!

I don’t often leave reviews this detailed, but the experience we had with Andrew at Cotton Hollow Kitchen absolutely warrants it.

Our group came in for a meal immediately following a wake for a family member. As you can imagine, spirits were low, and we were emotionally drained. From the moment Andrew approached our table, he was extraordinary. Serving a grieving family can be a delicate balance, but Andrew’s intuition was flawless. He was deeply professional and respectful, yet he brought a warmth and caring energy that genuinely helped lift the weight of the afternoon. He didn't just serve us food; he provided a much-needed respite.

Beyond his incredible empathy, his technical skills as a server were impeccable. He was attentive without being intrusive, anticipating our needs before we even had to ask. He also whipped up some of the most amazing drinks we’ve had in a long time—he clearly knows his way around a cocktail!

On a lighter note, it certainly didn’t hurt that Andrew is very easy on the eyes. His magnetic personality, brought a smile to our faces when we really needed one.

If you are management reading this: Andrew is a gem. If you are a customer looking for a table: ask for Andrew. He turned a difficult day into a comforting, memorable experience, and we can’t thank him enough.

Terrible dining experience on so many levels. Seated late even with reservation, waitress clearly running from table to table, no drinks offered, no accommodations for diet restrictions, rude aggressive manager (definitely made everything worse) and food average.

Never coming back again, the man who I believed to be the manager was very confrontational and aggressive when we asked simply questions about the allergies within certain foods. He made us feel extremely uncomfortable and unwelcome, the other staff was knowledgeable but not very helpful. They may make a large amount of gluten free items but they will be absolutely in shambles if you have a diary allergy or need other changes to your meal.

Cotton Hollow Kitchen was an absolute pleasure from start to finish! The restaurant is inviting, extremely clean and set up in such a way that it allows for a comfortable, private dining experience ( I loathe those restaurants that squeeze in as many tables as possible so that you are practically sitting on top of each other ). Service was simply stellar. We were greeted immediately, our server was very attentive, knowledgeable, professional and pleasant. The menu was a delight for one of the members of our party who is gluten-free and was so excited to have an entire menu of GF options for not only lunch, but dessert as well. The tea menu was also a big hit with our party.

The food was delicious, cooked perfectly and since the menu options were so unique and diverse, we had fun trying a bit of each other's meals as well. Dessert was simply divine. We had the apple cheesecake, the brownie sundae and took a pumpkin whoopie pie home - each one absolutely delicious. Little details such as an adorable brown bag book sale set up on a table at the entrance or that the bathrooms have individual cloth washcloths with which to dry your hands just add to the overall ambiance and uniqueness of this restaurant. It's an inviting place and they deliver a special experience alongside delicious food and drink. Highly recommend Cotton Hollow Kitchen ( and if it's the right season and direction - take the ferry over too )!

This place is amazing! We went here to celebrate my birthday! It was totally worth the 1hr drive. The food was delicious and they have plenty of gluten-free options if you need them. The staff was so kind and when they heard I was celebrating my birthday they gave me a card and brought out my dessert with a candle on it. They have hand towels in the bathroom to reduce waste, but there are multiple. You use it and drop it in the bin on the floor for them to wash. They had live music and she was awesome. The staff and servers were all extremely kind and welcoming. My husband and I really enjoyed ourselves and we look forward ro coming back!

My wife and I got engaged here in February 2024 and returned recently as a married couple to treat our officiant. The ownership and management here are actively involved in customer satisfaction. A+ service. My only negative critique is that the gluten free selection doesn't taste all that great, but it's edible. As is the case with most gluten free food. My wife loves the regular (non GF) food

Semi casual spot with a full gluten free menu. I’ve had several burgers and pasta dishes and all have been good. Service can be on the slower side so I wouldn’t come if you’re in a rush. They have a big bar and great beer selection of local breweries.

Cotton Hollow Kitchen was such a magical find! It’s truly one of the most gluten-free friendly restaurants we’ve come across in a very long time, and it absolutely exceeded our expectations. We even had the chance to meet the owner, who was so warm and welcoming, and shared the heartfelt history behind why the restaurant is so committed to being GF friendly.

The atmosphere is inviting and relaxed, the staff couldn’t have been kinder, and the food, was simply 5 stars across the board. Every dish felt thoughtfully crafted and safe for those of us who are gluten-free, without ever compromising on flavor.

If you’re looking for a place that truly “gets it” when it comes to gluten-free dining, look no further. Cotton Hollow Kitchen is a gem!

First time for us at Cotton Hollow and it was really good! Outdoor patio is very nice and service was exceptional. I loved the veggie burger--best one I have ever had. We also loved the fries. Truffle fries were amazing! We will definitely be back
