Shela Mazza

The gluten free and butter free chocolate chip cookie was phenomenal. Hard to find good GF bakery options but this one was great!

Sam Richardson

Great experience. Best tomato soup I’ve ever had. Turkey burger is delicious, and I’m not normally a turkey burger fan. Pearson provided great service. Many healthy options on the menu - gluten free, vegan/vegetarian. Pizzas are tasty and salads are creative. Recommend.

Trevor Long

So good and for gluten free - just ask for protein style

FABIOLA SAJA

Small but characteristic atmosphere, a little slow due to the fact that there is always a lot of people, very good hamburger even gluten-free

OMG! DELICIOUS!! We ordered different things so we could taste it all! Cornbread…are you kidding me? Shrimp and grits…so deliciously creamy. Oxtail tacos…flavor burst! Fried green tomatoes…so good!

Oh wait….gotta go…my gluten free peach cobbler is coming!! Trust me….eat here!!!

Absolutely top tier gluten free breakfast burritos. The Mediterranean flavors of the Hiho wrap were awesome and everything was super fresh and well made. Pretty much everything can be made GF here so I highly recommend for anyone with celiacs.

Swingers in Hollywood isn’t just a diner—it’s a slice of LA history with a side of sass and really good fries. This place has been serving up late-night eats and early-morning recoveries since the days when indie bands and studio execs shared booths. It’s got that lived-in cool without ever trying too hard: checkerboard floors, jukebox charm, and the low hum of a city that never quite sleeps. The food? Way above the curve for diner fare. Think golden pancakes with just the right chew, fresh arugula tucked into a breakfast burrito, wild-caught tuna melts that taste like someone in the kitchen actually cares. Whether you’re vegan, gluten-free, or just hungover and looking for comfort, they’ve got something legit—and made with better ingredients than you’d expect at 2am on Sunset. What really pulls it all together is the staff. Engaged, sharp, always game for a little banter if you are, or just genuinely attentive if you’re flying solo. They know their regulars, but they’re just as warm to first-timers. Swingers is the kind of place that keeps its edge without losing its heart. A diner that feels like home—if your home had really good huevos rancheros and cooler people hanging around.

Unique drinks, gluten free everything, neat atmosphere

Never had a bad meal here! Excellent GF options for breakfast and lunch. Paty’s is a tried and true classic!

I did not have any expectations coming into this restaurant, but little did I know that I was going to have a spectacular brunch at this fine place! Not only was the service amazing because of our server who was attentive and bubbly, but the food which was fantastic. I tried the hazelnut latte and Minted matcha iced latte which were both very delicious. The matcha had a subtle sweetness, tartness and was just so smooth and rich. Aside from the drinks, the appetizers were jaw dropping. The grilled cheese dippers was inexplicably delectable, there was so much flavor and the garlic aioli added such a beautiful essence to the dish. Grilled cheese done the right way! The pumpkin chai hotcakes were vegan and gluten free, tasted sweet and felt like autumn with each bite. It was a very enjoyable item and I highly recommend it if you enjoy a sweet treat. Lastly was the rustic wagyu steak sandwich. I was a bit weary about it since i'm not a big blue cheese person, but I was truly astonished by how much the flavors were enhanced by the sour taste of the cheese! It really turned out to be such a flavorful experience. I had such a great experience here and I would definitely suggest trying this place if you haven't already!

Safe for coeliacs. Most of the menu is gluten free.

Charlotte Thompson

Gluten free waffles aren’t coeliac safe, not cooked on a separate fryer

Julieta Rodriguez Groves

The best? They have a gluten-free menu. But I don't know how to find it in the main menu, you have to scan a QR or ask the waiter.

The food is delicious, and place itself is awesome, they have board games that we can play while waiting for the food, and they also have gluten free food.

Such good food! They have a gluten free menu that clearly states which items have cross contamination, soy sauce or malt vinegar. There were a decent number of celiac safe options. The corn was my favorite, but honorable mentions to the beet salad, lamb curry and the farmers market margarita. It’s a nice restaurant with great service. We will be coming back!

Yvonne Romero

I traveled from Houston seeking a diner offering gluten-free choices. My husband raved about the burritos, and I greatly appreciated the customized gluten-free cinnamon swirl pancakes. The bacon and sausage were also delicious. The establishment provided options for all diners and fostered a welcoming atmosphere.

In & Out Burgers NEVER disappoint. Consistent flavor and freshness..sweet serving-crew..super popular place. My favorite burger. Best burger wrapped with lettuce for those who are gluten or dairy intolerant..tell them and they gladly accommodate.

Andreea Florescu

Happy to see they offer gluten-free fries (and they’re so good!). The management really goes out of their way to make sure you’re taken care of—super friendly and attentive. Highly recommend if you’re in Venice and craving something satisfying and well done. Will definitely be back!

Daniel Ball

Bestb meal ever. Burger. Sea bass sprouts. Gluten free. Dairy free. Gorgeous. creative. I'll be back soon.

Tayla was patient and answered any question I asked about the food especially with my allergies. I appreciate her asking the kitchen why things weren't gluten free and to see if there was any substitutes for my dish. I especially liked how Tayla was helpful and sweet. Thank you Tayla :)

The food is expensive, they do have bottomless fries, chips with your meal. Very noisy, busy, people bring kids and families. The wait staff are nice and helpful. The dinning areas need upgrades. The place is looking a bit worn down. I am gluten free, they make separate fries and have gluten free buns but we pay extra. I got the turkey burger, very good, their signature sauce is a bit spicy but good. They give plenty of dipping sauces. They clean the tables pretty well.

I was on my own and wanted an outdoor table. There were no open tables so they sat me at the bar. Hannah behind the bar was amazing! Great energy and SO knowledgeable about the food. I had the ocean trout and it was beautifully presented, light and so flavorful. The gluten free chocolate hazelnut cake was delicious. Highly recommend.

Food was delicious, gluten free bun was great!

Wurstkuche is one of the restaurants I’d recommend to anyone visiting LA. I’ve been going here for years now and have always had the most amazing experiences. They accommodate my gluten allergy so well here, simply making my sausage without a bun and also wrapped in foil so no cross contamination occurs. I love the kielbasa and have yet to try anything too out there, but they have some very interesting and exotic sausages such as the rattlesnake & rabbit one! Not sure if I’ll ever be adventurous enough to try that one! There tends to be a line every time I go, but there’s always enough room to sit, as they have a large front patio and plenty of seats indoors that’s free seating. I love how there are crayons and you can color on the tables! Parking is pretty terrible as this is a busy area in the Arts District, so I’d recommend ubering if possible, although I did get lucky and find parking right away this time around! Definitely check this place out as they are super accommodating, the atmosphere is great and the food is delicious!

Historic upscale dinner spot. Highly recommend if you are looking for a great steak in the heart of Hollywood. Food is good, especially the steaks which they are known for. Escargot and Veal are must haves, if that's what you're into. Sorbet trio is a refreshing, unique dessert that really completes your meal. There was a note about gluten free options available. Service is attentive and highly professional. The atmosphere is old-fashioned, classic Hollywood vibes. You may recognize the bar or booths from various TV shows and movies. They do have Valet, with a back entrance, or you can try your luck with metered street parking. They validate if you valet. Buon Appetito, Piatto Pulito 😋

Absolutely loved this place. Went with a big group and got most of the appetizers and everything was amazing 🤩 Loved the pear salad, the steaks, and they had this gluten free cheesy bread like starter that was so good. Most of the menu was gluten free or adaptable which was helpful for me.

The food is incredible , I had the gluten-free flatbread, and it was one of the best meals I’ve ever had. Honestly, I’ve never had anything here I didn’t like. Everything is consistently delicious, the service is always friendly and on point, and the atmosphere? Just amazing. The music took me back ,it reminded me of home in the best way. There’s something about this place that just feels warm, welcoming, and real. If you’re looking for great food, great service, and a cozy, nostalgic vibe , this is the spot. Don’t miss it!
