Top 13 Gluten-Free Bars to Unwind in Palm Springs

Really good

Sammy G’s was quite a fancy looking spot although when I went everything seemed to be in some defunct stage, waiting for parties later on. My guests were sat on a patio lined with cheesy St Patrick’s day decorations and I sipped on a “Blue Lady” while contemplating the cultural meaning of the giant blow-up rainbow flowing into a pot of gold lined with shamrocks, towering above our table. Surrounding us on all the lamp posts were tasteless metallic green four leaf clovers with confetti script cheering on the event. These symbols mean next to nothing to me or anyone else out here, nor is Sammy’s culturally related to the Irish whatsoever. It’s seems to be just weirdly branded nonsense reason to drink a lot at this point. Does anyone even know who Saint Patrick was? For one, Saint Patrick wasn’t even named Patrick. His name was Maewyn Succat and he was a Christian missionary who brought religion to the Irish pagans. He effectively brainwashed a culture of beautiful pagan beliefs just as Christian missionaries did to most nearly every culture on this planet. And legend has it that he did so by teaching the Holy Trinity using a 3 leaf clover. Notice all the celebratory symbolism on this fake holiday represents 4 leaf clovers, leprechauns, rainbows, and pots of gold, all of which have nothing to do with the saint who eradicated these types of Irish myths and beliefs. Seeing this beautiful Italian restaurant decorated with gaudy junk representing a bizarre holiday truly took away from the experience. The pasta and pizzas offered gluten free options which was amazing. And when I was finished with the Blue Lady, I had the Red Lady. I recommend sticking with Blue. I’ve always wondered why there isn’t an option to rate the drinks. There’s only the option to rate food. But they were decent, not the best. Still, I’d come back for the bolognese. Incredible.

What an amazing experience!! Every detail was thoughtfully executed. Our party had a dairy & gluten allergy and our waiter Jeff was impeccable with his knowledge and helpful advice. Our wine was amazing and each dish, we were excited to share only one bite with each other! Dessert was delish and the after dinner drinks were wonderful. If I could give 6 stars I would!!! Thank you Jeff … until next time!! xoxo

Celiac friendly with a separate gluten free fryer! Great options and very accommodating! Highly recommend!

The staff was great, the food was OK. Not a great place for celiac. Non celiac hubby liked his burger but fries (krinkle cut) were left uneaten. My salad was just ok, iceberg lettuce.

Our first visit to Copley’s was a pleasant surprise. We sat outside in January surrounded by heaters, plants and people. I did wish I had dressed a little warmer. Our server was efficient, helpful and even a little fun. The food was fantastic. Imagine my gluten-free delight when the Caesar Salad came with croutons made out of pineapple (« traces of tropical »). As the former home of Cary Grant, the inside is filled with different nooks and crannies. Overall a very special evening.

Excellent food, very aware of gluten-free options and considerate of celiac members of our dining party.

I can't thank Trio Restaurant enough for catering our family Christmas celebration! They did an absolutely incredible job, and it was one of the highlights of our entire week. We had 19 people in our group, and Trio took care of every detail. Night one featured a delicious spaghetti dinner with mushroom ravioli, and night two was a spectacular three-course meal, including braised short ribs and Scottish salmon. What truly stood out was how accommodating they were—offering gluten-free, vegan, and dairy-free options for some of our family members without any hassle. A special thank you to Josh and KC, who not only cooked but also served us with such warmth and professionalism. So many family members came up to me after dinner saying it was the best meal they’d ever had! Your staff was incredibly kind, courteous, and professional, exceeding all expectations. I’m so grateful for all your help throughout the year as we planned this event. Your flexibility, guidance, and commitment to making our celebration perfect truly made a difference. The meal was unforgettable, and we’ll be talking about it for years to come!

Smokin burgers is open until 12 am which is highly convenient. Menu has a lot of items ,vegan & gluten free options are slim. Burger sliders were amazing for what they're priced at. Fries are (identical to McDonald's fries ( which I personally like) I didn't know about this I was shocked as well. The chicken tacos are well prepared & delicious. Both dishes came out hot & in a timely manner , our coca cola was freshly squeezed from the gun. Sauces are premium, they taste very well. ( I wouldn't say home made though (maybe) Salad was okay ( to little Parmesan for my taste however this was a side salad for $10) portion was okay. Our waiter was great, highly attentive at all times. We had Dessert which I didn't get a picture of , make sure to ask for a dessert menu ( they have really good desserts that come out warm with a vanilla scoop of ice cream. We had a warm butter cake with ice cream & hit the spot after the mains , I highly recommend it. If you sit indoors be ready it might get obnoxiously loud (have in mind it is a bar as well)

Some of our dishes were delicious! This review is more about the claim that they PRIDE themselves on gluten free. This would be ok if you just preferred to not eat gluten. But as one member of our party had a celiac allergy we were excited to eat here based on their website and claims. Unfortunately, the only gluten free option was GF bread, and they do not have a separate fryer or grill for fries or bread. There were only a few possible items that were truly gluten free and the server, tho very understanding, wasn’t sure about some of the sauces and food items. In conclusion: this place had yummy options for non-celiac people. Myself and the other person in our group enjoyed our food. But it was disappointing to expect more options based on their website and reviews and show up to having to carefully select and not be able to have the freedom of a carefree brunch.

We just had dinner there last night and everything was wonderful. Josiah our served was fantastic, great recommendations and super knowledgable. Restaurant can be a bit boisterous during prime time but otherwise great. We ordered the schnitzel, deviled eggs and steak. Gluten free friendly as well.
