Top 50 Gluten-Free American Spots to Enjoy in Indianapolis

NJT Trip

Pro’s: Great options for Celiac Disease + good GF bread. Coffee keeps flowing, it’s $5 for unlimited self serve. Central location next to Capitol. Con’s: Slightly underwhelming portions. Lox bagel does not come with cream cheese. Not a ton of unique / strong flavor for an $18 meal. It generally felt like a restaurant that used to be charming in its origins but has commercialized.

Visited here for a birthday dinner the night before a Fever game. Amazing dining experience, top notch service. The staff were very accommodating with my gluten free and dairy free needs.

Was in the area, and looked up gluten free options, and this place came up. When I walked in, I was able to sit at the bar (which had a ton of seats) and immediately got served by Leah, the amazing bartender working today. They had a ton of different burger options and had gluten free buns available, which can be hard to come by. The burger was made to order, and the one I got had an interesting flavor. It had a basil aoli, mushrooms, onions, and goat cheese (of all things). The bourbon based drink is ordered was tastefully made, and overall I enjoyed my experience. All of the staff were nice and attentive; you could tell that they all worked well together.

Excellent! We enjoyed this cafe so much that we ate their twice over the weekend and brought another family with us the second time. Between all of us, I think we tried almost everything on their menu and we were not disappointed! Their food is made with care, well priced compared to other gluten free places, and the staff was wonderful. Great experience by both families!

I am an admitted Cafe Patachou addict... but I swear their chicken salad sandwich has restorative powers! And only place in town I know of you can get gluten free waffles!! 💙

Dan Pete

The roasted brussels sprout appetizer is amazing! Also, pair your meal with one of the CH house wines. We chose a smooth merlot with our dinner and will do so again, it was that good. Our server was very attentive and professional, very knowledgeable on the menu and wines. He insured that my meal was prepared gluten-free which I greatly appreciated. Reservations are recommended on the weekends.

We make this a usual stop about once every 3 months. Service was far better this time than last. My wife has to be gluten free and she hasn't had any issues when eating here! The tacos are fantastic!

An update after my visit: despite noting that I have an allergy and needed the gluten-free pancakes, I was served pancakes with gluten. Through sheer luck, I commented on a separate allergy-related issue, and a new staff member (not the one who took my order) got confused and asked "You do realize these have gluten, right?". They prepared a new, safe, order quickly, but it was concerning. I recommend that those with allergies place their order through a manager, and have the manager double-check with the kitchen that they read the order correctly. I haven't even been here yet, but I already love them due to their commitment to safe gluten-free food for those with Celiac and other severe medical responses to gluten. I'll update this review after I eat there this weekend

Good food, great beverages. I was pleasantly surprised by the gluten sensitivity section of the menu

Melody Carroll

So, as a person with Celiac, when I found this place, I was so excited. I have been going there for quite a bit of time. Sometimes, twice a week. Sadly, I will not continue going there or recommending it. When I come into a restaurant, which is very rare because of my Celiac, I don't want politics or a political agenda to hit me in the face. Today, there is a flag hanging behind the welcome desk that I do not believe in, and I am sure others would say the same. I know everyone is welcome to their own opinion, but I wonder if they would hang an American Flag or a Christian Flag as quickly behind their welcome desk? Like professional sports, restaurants should not use their restaurant as a political platform. It actually made me sad that one of the only places I can eat, is no longer a choice.

As someone with Celiac Disease, I was floored that the fried chicken can be completely gluten free. The servers are knowledgeable and happy to accommodate with gluten free needs. Food was incredibly fresh and delicious. There are so several sides and appetizers that are also gluten free. There are a gluten free option for dessert too! I will be back for the food and the amazing service! Highly recommend!

Alicia Mendoza

Sam P was a great server! Abundant gluten free options. Will be back again!

Candy Kuhl

The gluten-free cheeseburger was delicious! Although the French fries are not gluten-free, I opted for a side salad instead. Overall, it was a very satisfying meal.

Amy Lathrop

Went to Seasons 52 for a work dinner and was very impressed with the service our waitress Dominque provided. I have a gluten restriction and when the company ordered apps, I asked if one was GF. She checked for me and explained it wasn't but went above and beyond by bringing me out some gluten free bread to munch on. Which by the way was delicious. She then proceeded to bring out a GF menu for me and when it came time for dessert, she educated me on what my options were. Having food restrictions can sometimes make eating out less enjoyable however Dominque's service made my experience a breeze.

Sarah Chidister

Brittani was our server today and she was really lovely! The food as always was amazing and I love the gluten friendly options they have available.

Shalyse Ise

Food was very good. Our server Alyssa was very nice. Lots of vegan and vegetarian options as well as gluten free

Deborah Richardson

Allison Henderson

Delicious food and great service! There were lots of gluten free options. Our server, Scott, was so helpful and professional!

Barbara Payton

I love that they have Gluten free bread and buns too. Molly was the best server. Our food was so good. We live this place.

Sarah is amazing! Gluten-free, YES PLEASE! So many Gluten-free options! Ive never been anywhere with more Gluten-free choices!!!

Edward Klasky

The chicken tender meal was over cooked and seemed like it came out of a frozen bag! I got a plate of tail end fries and the waitress forgot my cup of chili. Thankful now! The double smash burger was dripping wet in grease if you like that kind of thing YUK! The gluten free bun was dry and just fell apart. Now I understand why nobody was in the place. First and last time here!

Kimberly Wiselogle

Amazing service. Extremely through and safe with a Gluten Allergy. Highly recommend the Metro Diner and Casey as a server. 😊

Richard Spartan

I loved everything I ate. Portion for cost is fair. I wish the gluten free option wasn’t so strict with using corn on corn.

Abigail Van Houten

Get experience, friendly staff, delicious food, and so many choices. I very much appreciate the gluten-free options. I recommend 100%

Richard Nussle

Great restaurant close to downtown. The service is great and the servers are knowledgeable about the menu and wine. They always have a vegan and gluten free entree. When you first sit down you get a small glass of champagne which is a nice touch. On our last visit we got the smoked carrots and they were shockingly good. The carrot soup was excellent and then for entrees I got long trumpet mushrooms and my wife got the Sacchetoni en Brodo. She said hers was good. The peanut parfait is amazing and a must get to finish the meal. It is on the pricier side but it is with it in my opinion.

Angela Eck

Delicious food, wonderful service, and comfortable atmosphere. I will be coming back for sure. I had a steak, salad, and baked potato, all of which were delicious. If you need to eat gluten free, be sure to ask for no croutons on your salad.

Scott Kelly

Extra thick cut, 98% fat free, and cured well. Best of all, it's gluten free for a person with celiac disease like me. What am I talking about? It's Kirkland's Signature Premium Extra Thick Steak Strips, of course! You can't go wrong with this food package for a car trip to a city like Indianapolis for a convention you've been looking forward to attending for over six years. It especially hits the spot after you've been waiting over 3 hours for food at a restaurant that, once delivered, wasn't cooked properly and didn't match your order nor met your dietary restrictions that you asked about (and which was never answered by staff). But don't worry, Kirkland's Steak Strips won't put you in the hospital - they're already cooked, ready and safe to eat. Kirkland's Steak Strips are so good even at 10pm, after a long evening of waiting for an order that actually got cancelled by an inept Liquid Death-chugging manager after yourself and your friends expressed concerns over your wait countless times, being told again and again that it would just be 5 more minutes until your food arrived. But you know what you don't have to wait for? Kirkland's Steak Strips. They're always ready for you, sealed in that snazzy black bag and packed with a blast of flavorful protein. Costco is there for those who care about what they eat and want to have a good time chowing down. For everyone else - especially in Indianapolis - there's Punch Bowl Social, where you can go to play a tournament of Exploding Kittens at your table and eat... well, as it turned out for me, absolutely nothing!

If healthy, gluten-free food options are important to you, then you will want to try Flower child. On my first visit, I found the menu to be confusing, but the staff was incredibly helpful in explaining how to order. Portions are a good size, and the items are very flavorful. I haven't found anything there to disappoint me yet. Flower Child is located in a high traffic area, but parking is very accommodating, and there was no issue finding a seat. Give it a try, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised!

Mesh is yet another Cunningham restaurant with excellent food, service, and ambiance. Had the coravina and peanut butter pie, both of which were exquisite. The coravina was a delightful blend of curry, pineapple, and coconut flavors balanced with savory and perfectly fried rice and roasted carrots. The peanut butter pie also was delicious, and the heavy flavor of the peanut butter was well balanced with cream. I also appreciate their range of gluten-free , vegetarian, and vegan options. Will definitely be coming here again!

We were in town to have dinner with daughter and her husband and their two high school children before we went to hear Dr. Tyson talk. The food was tasty the service was what made the evening so special. Took care of our people with gluten issues with the minimum of fanfare. It was the perfect place to have a meal with 3 generations in attendance. We had fun and everyone got their hearts desire to eat. Thank you all for making our meal together memorable.

Ellen

Thank you to the hostess who served us for outside with our dog! She went out of her way to let me order a great gluten-free salad. Amazing!
