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.

Get here early as it fills up FAST! Great food and service. Highly recommend Hashbrown rancheros. Gluten free bread is house made and tasty!

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.

Molly Vielhauer

absolutely love their gluten free pastas!

Molly Vielhauer

almost the entire menu can be modified to gluten free!

Rebecca Martz

We came on a weekday for lunch and it wasn't crowded at all. The outdoor semi-covered patio in the back was super nice and the food was wonderful. Gluten friendly items are clearly marked on the menu, and there is cross contamination. Buffalo cauliflower and vegan ranch was to die for! I also had the curry with cauliflower rice and chicken and it was super tasty.

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.

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

Melissa Grant

Love love love this place! Amazingly good! The garlic cheese bread is the best ever! The pizza’s are soooo good! They did a wonderful job on the gluten free crust! The atmosphere is adorable and we had the best server ever!

Shylo Benz

Best breakfast I’ve EVER had. I got the Scromble of The Day. Tomatoes and Chimichurri *chefs kiss* I’m gluten free and the GF English muffins were great.. I got TWO with my breakfast. My dad got the breakfast burrito and he loved it! Super cool spot to check out in downtown Minneapolis.

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!

DM B

I’m celiac and finding safe places to eat when I travel is hard. This place was amazing. At first I was skeptical but the young man that was my waiter was knowledgeable and the items are marked on the menu. Food was outstanding! His service was great. He was very kind and attentive.

Very good place if you have allergies or dietary restrictions, they are a very clean and careful kitchen, and the one place that never makes me sick! Wish I could get larger gluten free pizzas for both cost reasons and so i could share or have left overs, especially since I like eating out with friends who also have celiacs!

Kerrissa Keymer

Yummy, unusual pizzas, all available gluten-free. 😋 Great mocktails and real cocktails. Secret door is in the alley to get into the speakeasy. Super hip. Super cool. Fab vibes. 👌

Ella B.

Lovely little shop. They had a lot more unique teas than what I’ve seen at other places along with interesting coffee specials such as a squash latte for fall. They serve all sorts of gluten free items such as pastries and ice cream.

Cora Brown

We love Red Cow! Excellent food and atmosphere. Tons of gluten free options.

Abby Collins

Breakfast sandwich is amazing..oh my god!!! I love the gluten free options! I would love the option to select no cheese when ordering online ;)

Andie C

So so good! I celebrated my birthday here and had such a great experience. I’m gluten & dairy free and they were SO accommodating to my allergens and I felt super safe eating here - not to mention I could eat quite a few things off the menu which isn’t always the case. Our server was very knowledgeable and friendly and the restaurant itself is stunning. Highly recommend!

Scott Miller

Good food & lots of GF options available. My wife is celiac. Very casual atmosphere, not fancy at all. Short wait on a Saturday night.

Margaret Dick

First time visiting today. This is such a great spot—very lively and full of people chatting and working and playing. It feels like visiting a coffee shop in the pre-smart phone era. Haven’t felt this good about a coffee shop since I left NYC a few years ago. They also have gluten free pasties which is awesome :) And delicious coffee!! Will certainly return.

claire

server was knowledgeable about gluten free options, shared most can be modified to be gluten free and they will cook it in a separate skillet instead of on the griddle :) great patio experience!

Amanda J.

Our entire dinner experience was excellent, but our favorite part of the meal was the potato cherros. They had a gluten-free menu as well, which was extremely helpful for me. We really enjoyed ourselves.

Breya Hoeppner

The gluten free options for this restaurant was the best part of the experience my boyfriend and I had. Although the food was decent, the staff were extremely loud, at some points rude to my boyfriend and I when ordering and asking questions, and also just not being respectful of guests in the restaurant.

S Hamill

Bittersweet dinner at ie as it is closing! 😭 Tremendous food, great gluten free options, and super service. Hope the owner changes his mind... We will miss ie!

Megan Relson

Great breakfast (and lunch) sandwhiches and pastries including gluten free and vegan options. High quality crafted espresso and coffee drinks. Highly recommend for both food and drink options.

Neil Toering

Great place to grab food. They have a gluten free menu as well as a dedicated fryer.

Alex Van

My wife can’t eat gluten and loves the crust they got for her! I just do takeout and can whole heartedly say as much as I love Little Caesar’s Detroit Style, this one is a little better.

Krystil Rose

Partygoers were floored that these cupcakes were egg and dairy free, and some gluten free on top of that! Everyone had wonderful things to say. I had the cookie dough, and it did indeed taste just like a whipped scoop of cookie dough on top! Thanks Vegan East 💚

Reggie Lamptey

So 49ER Day party at Crave Rooftop was a lot of fun and the food was delicious. I was pretty surprised at how extensive their menu was. Oftentimes, when restaurants have a lot of items and different types and styles, it isn't always good. But when I tell you my bison burger and wings were very tasty. There was lots of flavor and made just the way I wanted. I don't like my wings swimming in sauce, so I asked for light sauce on my wings, and they listened, and it was just how I like. Their menu even has a gluten sensitive menu as well as a plant based menu. I was impressed with their options. If you find yourself in downtown Minneapolis, you should definitely check them out. You will not be disappointed!

Kathy Shepherd

Annie was very pleasant and makes a great cocktail. My daughter has Celiac Disease and she was very knowledgeable about gluten free options for her to have. The pasta was fantastic. Thank you for a great lunch!

veda

Such a cute place! Went to have breakfast with a friend and we both loved our food, Great place if you’re gluten intolerant. Very friendly service as well!

Karen Vano-reynolds

Awesome gluten free pastries

Mikayla Soltis

Awesome vibe- shoutout to server Jamie! Was able to have gluten free waffles here and also make accommodations/substitutions for my lactose intolerant friend :) no wait on a Sunday

Sarah Clark

This place is great. Love all the dog art. Food is great with unique options. Menu also is super veg friendly and gluten free bread is available! They don't even mind fake-etarians like me who don't eat beef but want real bacon with their Beyond burger 😆 Jen and Lisa were awesome!! We'll be back!!

Ze'ev O'Rourke

Was actually able to keep it gluten free by just splitting the generous charcuterie board and sausage sampler with a couple of friends (obv I just didn't eat the crackers) and checking out their hard cider menue - lots of selections. Great spot even if you're celiac

Tim H

I very rarely write a review regarding a place I frequent as often as I do, May Day, but I felt like it was important to voice my thoughts. To offer gluten free (GF) items is a wonderful thing and something I have appreciated every time I've visited. Today, they had nothing in their inventory of baked goods to offer their celiac customers. Mind you it’s 8 AM on a Saturday. If you are going to offer GF, be consistent.

Jennifer Kroll

Celiacs can’t eat here. I was so excited to see that they advertise so many gluten free options. Paid $3.50 fee to get cash bc they don’t take card and then when I got up to the counter to order I was told they couldn’t accommodate me because of cross contamination. Please don’t say things are gf if you can’t prepare them gf. It’s really demoralizing to people with food allergies to show up and be refused service.

A Google User

The absolute kindest staff I've met on my trip and were super helpful when I asked about gluten free options.

Taylor Moone

Chili with gluten free cornbread is heavenly. Being from the south, it’s hard to find good cornbread. Reminded me of my granny’s. Also, best gluten free brownie I have had in my life. I was full ages ago, but scarfed everything down. I will be back!

Kena Schlenker

Menu is marked with gluten free or gluten free modification. Dedicated fryer. Knowledgeable staff

Lexi Damm

Amazing spot, I love the gluten free option as well! Great product, I could eat this daily!

Daniel Gerland

Very tasty food and classic diner atmosphere. The waiter was friendly. Always good to see gluten free bread on the menu! I hope to return soon to try more of their offerings.

Stephanie May

Stanley’s has a pretty consistent menu, and while they offer some good vegetarian options, they have been careless with the gluten-friendly side of it. Was poisoned twice, first time they gave me a non-GF bun instead of a GF one like I specified, second time the bartender gave me a random beer instead of cider. Had to forcibly make myself puke in the bathroom from said beer, and the bartender still made me pay for his mistake. A friend of mine who is also celiac was poisoned with a GF bun on a separate occasion. I understand there are risks to eating out with allergies, etc., but this place is way too risky and has made too many mistakes to go back. Last time I went in for a salad they changed the menu and I noticed there are things listed on their menu as “GF” which are in fact not gluten-friendly at all, even with bun/bread substitutes. If you have allergies or are celiac, be very mindful of what you are getting and double check everything if you’re willing to take the risk.

Alisa Forpahl

Great food. Generous sizes. I'm celiac and didn't have any issues. Missed having pita but the chicken was so so good ;)

Stacey Davis

What a fantastic neighborhood coffee shop and eatery! I ordered a lavender latte made with house-made lavender syrup, paired with a breakfast quesadilla - breakfast options are served all day. The menu is straightforward, offering homemade soups, salads, burritos, wraps and sandwiches. If I had to choose a word or two to describe the food offerings, it would be QUALITY INGREDIENTS. The bakery case is filled with tempting pastries, from scones to coconut macarons, including gluten-free options. They also offer a selection of wine and local beers, along with drinks like kombucha and coconut water, house made lemonade and teas and of course, espresso-based drinks with a few house espresso based specialty drinks like an orange blossom latte. The quality of the coffee and espresso is excellent—it's fair trade, carbon negative, and truly embodies the F.R.C. ethos: Fresh, Local, Independent, with a "tiny footprint." The café also supports local artists, featuring a monthly rotating exhibit on the walls, with pieces available for purchase directly from the baristas. They offer a great selection of merch, including t-shirts, coffee mugs, and retail coffee, house made granola as well as artisan-made candles and earrings from locals. The seasonal patio is a delightful spot to enjoy your meal, play a little foosball, or just relax. The staff is warm and welcoming, making this Longfellow neighborhood treasure a must-visit. Five stars for this inclusive gem!
