TL;DR - Substantial drop in food quality and service. I can't imagine myself visiting this location again, and you shouldn't imagine yourself going here either. Pizza Luce has always been a place I could rely on for great food and service, but my most recent visit was incredibly disappointing. During my visit I got a Breggfast pizza to eat there, and Gluten Free Bruscetta to go; both were entirely disappointing. Pizza - I got the Breggfast pizza with their Buffa-Luce sauce... well, at least that's what I ordered. What I got was a pizza crust with some ingredients on it, but no sauce. When I mentioned it to the waiter, he told me it was there. I restated that in fact, no, it was not, and showed him the pizza, and he informed me that I was incorrect and it was there, and then just walked away without another word. So apparently as far as this waiter was concerned, I'm blind and have no taste buds. Gluten Free Bruscetta - Oh, I'm sorry, did I say Bruscetta, I meant the cheapest, most terrible gluten free hamburger buns you can find. Pizza Luce's GF Bruscetta used to be, hands down, the best around. I believe they got the bread from a local bakery and perhaps they aren't around any longer, but if you can't find a good alternative, then just don't have any. If I had to guess, they just use Schar hamburger buns, though that feels like an insult to Shar. These were terrible; they tasted like cardboard and were soggy. Pizza Luce was always a safe bet when I was in the area, for both Pizza and gluten free items, but this visit was a joke, and an expensive one at that.

My favorite place to bring my vegan and gluten free friends. They adore the food and I love seeing them happy. Such a vibey place.

This hole in the wall is an amazing find. The entire menu is gluten-free. They offer several DF dishes as well. You order as the counter, and then they bring it to your table. The service is really good and they provide carafe of water for the table. They are spot on with refills. The only down side is the parking. It's all on street. There is patio and indoor seating. It's rare to find a restaurant that has more than one dish my wife can have with her dietary restrictions. Brim has several. It was great seeing her gitty looking at a menu.

This place is the one place I go to where I feel and know what I’m eating is safe! Tons of options to choose from!

Ben Premack

This Bakery is amazing! Not just the gluten free food, but the great prices and the super friendly staff. They go above and beyond. I live in Minneapolis and spend quite a bit time in the St. Cloud Area. This is my 1st stop when I get to town. This is a great oasis for the gluten free community. I can't wait to visit again. Stop on in. You will not be disappointed! Ben Premack Minneapolis

Melina Lee

They make the best gluten free and vegan breads. The cinnamon rolls are amazing and should definitely be eaten as soon as you can while it’s still warm

Pamela McCurdy

Always the best food. Very large place with a beautiful patio. It is one of my favorite places to go. Everything is always good. Only took a photo of my item last night which was the shroom burger. Beautiful baguette and tasty cheeses to make it the perfect burger. Friends had a poke bowl, Salad and another burger. My friend needed Gluten Free and they were helpful. At the bar they also have THC drinks 🍹 One of my favorite places to get wings. Also one of my favorite appetizers is the Ahi Tuna Crisp. Servers will help you makes choices if you have not been here. Friendly staff! This is a great option in the North Loop.

Gabrielle Kamil

As good as ever, especially the gluten free waffles. How do they make everything taste so great?

Frank and Samantha White

This place is incredible, I wouldn’t even believe it wasn’t 100% gluten free if I didn’t know it already. The eggplant tostada was absolutely incredible! Everything here was perfect.

Chase Kasel

Absolutely wonderful experience overall. They have plenty of options for most, including vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free (vegan/gluten free) being hard to find. The atmosphere and view of the lake were great as well. Very clean, nice bathrooms, friendly staff, book adoption for small price, and a dietary restriction diverse pastry selection too! We will definitely be coming back.

We just visited on our vacation to the North Shore. We were blown away by this great pizza restaurant! We started with the garlic cheese toast. I believe it had cilantro on top which was delicious. There was a hearty serving of marinara included, and it was only $1 to add another marinara. My daughter ordered the spinach salad - it had a great balance of savory and sweet, and was a good-sized portion. I ordered the Hulapeño pizza. I don't like pineapple on pizza, so I requested it removed, however when it showed up at the table it was included. I was really hungry from a full day of hiking, and didn't want to wait for another pizza to be made. It was so delicious with the pineapple! The real star, though, was the Hot Honey - I couldn't get enough of it! Who thought that would be great with pizza?? Such a delicious combo!! I have a vegetarian son, and we were astounded by all of the vegetarian options available! Vegan bacon, sausage, pepperoni, and more. Also there were vegan cheese available and gluten-free options. I felt that the variety was more than any restaurant in the much larger city we're from! The atmosphere inside was great. Lots of outstanding local art on the walls to enjoy and available for purchase. A really cool avocado table for big groups. And you can watch them toss pizza crust while you're sitting at a table, which is always fun. The area outside was the only place I felt a little unsafe on our travels, and I skirted the kids away after one Pokemon Go battle. This restaurant is definitely on my list when we return to Duluth!

Ordered gluten free food here for the first time recently (as a newly diagnosed celiac). The gluten free pasta was alright, but I wouldn't come back for it. Our server seemed a little like we were an inconvenience just for being there. I almost asked him if he was having a bad day or something, but he was pretty short with any communication and looked at us with blank expressions. The atmosphere on the patio was nice with plants though. Our hostess forgot to bring me a gluten free menu after I asked about it while being seated, but she was apologetic when I went back to the front stand to get one. I've been here before, several years ago, back when I could still eat gluten. From vague memory, that experience was a bit better.

Erin A

Great experience here with celiac disease, visiting with a friend who also has celiac. We were both impressed by the confidence of the staff in describing the precautions they take when notified of gluten sensitivity, as well as their overall friendliness. Everything on the menu is gluten free besides the regular buns. Highly recommend!

Chad Stutelberg

Food is always great and service is fantastic. We had vegan, vegetarian, gluten free and dairy free people in our group and the waitress knew all of the dishes and ingredients and was able to create plates that worked for everyone.

Rowan Forrester

So here's the thing, it's a great spot, and if you dine in, the food is pretty good. They hand-pour cherry Coke on request and take pride in their beer offerings, too. Twin Cities natives LOVE them their local Pizza Luce. BUT - and it's a BIG but (sans Sir Mix-a-Lot) - I got nasty food poisoning from their chicken wings last year, and haven't been able to look at chicken wings since. They also have a problem remembering to add extra cheese on their pizza when you order online. Has happened several times when I've ordered delivery as well as pick-up. Both of these issues are specific to the Roseville location. On the other hand, Katie at the Selby location in St Paul is wonderful if you're lucky enough to be in her service. I was there last week with a VERY diverse group of people - there were about 10 of us - and she was great. She was even juggling a late Friday night when the carbonation ran out at the bar, so no carbonated drinks. They also ran out of their summer special pizza (Taco Supreme), and the kitchen dropped one of our orders. Katie was pleasant, kind, generous, on top of it. She handled her business, as we say in NYC, amidst the chaos. Kudos to you, Katie. I hope you -and your corporate boss - see this review, because you're the reason I will continue to recommend Pizza Luce despite clear ops issues. The vegan meatballs are pretty good, and even have a fire-seared flavor to them that's unexpected in vegan products. I happen to be an omnivore, and also tried the meat meatballs, which are also quite good - though I don't recommend mixing and matching. Generally, the pizzas are super yum, but have a thin, crispy crust, fyi. Also important: they have a pretty good gluten-free selection, including the pizzas. I recommend asking about spiciness if you have sensitivity to burning foods, though. Not everything with "kick" is labeled on the menu. So, after all of that, I still go. I still recommend them. Just know that there may be a learning curve, so I also recommend you go with locals the first few times if you're a traveler or a transplant. Cheers

Nora Bengtson

All flavors except 1 were gluten free and they had gluten free waffle cones!!!

David Roberts

The Red Cow has delicious fare and great service. I was part of a group of four. They have a dedicated gluten-free fryer, so all the fried potato dishes (e.g. french fries, sweet potato fries, etc.) can be made gluten-free (and oat-free).

Drew Losure-McDermott

We had a reservation for six; My parents, my wife, my cousin and his husband. It was sort of a "welcome to Minnesota" dinner, as the two of them just moved here from out of state. We consider Andiamo the best Italian restaurant in the South Metro . My cousin and his husband have Coeliac's. So the universal availability of gluten free options was much appreciated. A good experience overall, as we have come to expect.

Michelle Nasvik

Chimborazo continues to be one of my favorite go to restaurants in the cities! Their food is delicious, with unique flavors and just phenomenal Ecuadorian cuisine. I dream about the mahi mahi encocado and ceviche 🤤 I especially appreciate that they have so many options for someone who is gluten free and lots of good pescatarian options too! Their service is always fast and they’re always incredibly kind! Highly recommend.

Jessica McWilliams

Delicious all gluten and dairy free food. Fun environment. Went with four friends. We each ordered something from plant and game section with one of us ordering from the shareable section and we left satisfied. If you’re looking for standard American huge portions, not your place. If you’re looking for a place to try unique dishes and shareable with someone then yes!

Roving Ginger

I would’ve posted pictures of our food but we devoured it. Delicious food, reasonable prices, great for those of us avoiding gluten but not flavor.

Ban Banabhuidseach

Food is fantastic. Gluten Free options available (French Fries for the WIN). Wait staff is wonderful.

Henry Stern

Had a supreme experience at Brasa. Jacob took excellent care of us, including with my food allergies. Labelled on their paper allergen menu are major allergens, gluten, garlic/onion/nightshades/cilantro, and even GMO-free. With my egg and nut allergy, I had the vegetarian curry bowl (which is vegan, in fact) as well as rice and beans. Delicious! And on a quiet Monday, it only took about ten minutes to get the food. Lovely outdoor patio and quick service are a wonderful combination! And we're still raving about how great host Jacob is. Will be back!

Mona Edmonds

Great food. Good service. Gluten free choices are marked clearly and they had a delightful chocolate torte for dessert! Highly recommend!

Minwild G

Best pancakes in the area. Crazy large selection of all kinds of interesting pancake combinations. Wonderful gluten free pancakes that my wife is super crazy about. Makes her happy for the next few days. Super friendly and helpful staff that goes above and beyond in service. Note that they close around 2pm. Parking is OK but can get tight. Highly recommended and we will be back for sure.

Liz Palo

Celiac!

Laura Fredrickson

This unassuming little cafe is SO AMAZING! I travel across town just to eat here. I can't get enough of everything on their Gluten Free Menu - the pancakes are to die for, and I take home at least two of their scones, almond & lemon bars. (yes, they are ALL gluten free!) I am OBSESSED with this place 💖

M. K.

designated gf fryer!!!! one of the owners is gf! Great food!

Wendy Maybury

Brasa is always amazing. They have wonderful gluten free options

Maria Kannankutty

Great food and service and careful preparation for celiacs. They have a separate gluten free menu. They bring gluten free bread and separate butter to start out with which is a nice touch. And they have the best gluten free spinach dip with crostini and flourless cake! We’ve been here many times and enjoyed it every time.

Jennifer Horning

Man, SO good! I'm dairy and gluten free. Haven't had a burger and fries this good in... .dunno, a loooong time. Highly recommend!

McKinsey Hurd

Our server was very friendly, just not super attentive. Sat many times waiting for a drink refill. That being said, as a Gluten Free gal, they have MANY options. The tacos were amazing. My friend got the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich and wasn’t impressed as it tasted more like curry sauce.

lynn b

This was my first visit to Capitol Grille and it was amazing! My friends and I went to celebrate my birthday and everything was great! Our server was super friendly and knowledgeable, answered all of our questions and let us know what was the gluten-free options for my friend who is gluten free. All of the food was super delicious and cooked to perfection, I would definitely recommend a trip to Capital Grille for a night out or to celebrate.

Kasia

Very celiac friendly, the food is very fresh and vibrant. The staff is friendly and helpful. I wish it had a bigger seating area so I could bring everyone I know :)

Jules Carter

Love it!! It’s like a 50s malt shop feel with 80s/90s music and incredible food choices. Picked this place because they have real servers not computer order systems. Shomi was an exceptional server. Family friendly. Gluten Free friendly too. Hugs ;)

Jacoby Price

First time coming here. My fiancée has Celiac Disease and we were thankful for their well marked menu for their GF options! The hosts were very kind, quick and efficient. We were seated fairly quickly at 5pm on a Saturday. Our waitress, Brittany S., was so helpful with the menu’s and was quick to show us their mocktail menu when we told her that we didn’t drink. The food was amazing and also came out quickly! We got their GF chocolate cake to-go because we just couldn’t pass it up. Food presentation, Service, the atmosphere and pricing is all 5 stars and worth it. We will be back :)

Paxton Berger

Great gluten free options, tasty food, and incredibly attentive and knowledgeable service.

Brian Kennedy

Our go to "fast food" spot. Gluten free burgers. Sports Bar atmosphere, not our thing, but it's always.

Nora Bengtson

The servers were knowledge and incredibly helpful. Most of the menu can be made gluten free!

Brenda Wright

Amazing food! I'm gluten free and they took necessary precautions for me. Best fried rice I've ever had. Owners son has food allergies, so he knows! Will definitely go back again!

Amber H

Amazing! Everything on the menu is gluten-free!!! We got tacos and a chicken bowl - DELICIOUS! I was so bummed to learn they were closed on Tuesdays because I wanted to order it one more time on our way out of town. I will be back!

LaShay Oglesby

Gluten Free pizza fixed my way always a win☺️

Allison Erickson

I love this place! My favorite is the Surf Bowl because of all the fresh ground peanut butter on it, but there are many delicious and healthy options. Everything is gluten free and organic.

Gabrielle Kamil

The gluten free waffle cone was properly crisp. The ice cream was shockingly sweet with an aftertaste of St Joseph's baby aspirin.

Nora Bengtson

Dedicated fryer for the fries. Chicken wings can also be made gluten free. Gluten free bun available but had to make sure that the bun did not get toasted in the machine where the regular buns go. Very knowledgeable staff and if they don’t know, they make sure to ask before inputting your order. Just make sure that you advocate for yourself and ask about kitchen and prep practices.
