This is a fun place to go with great gluten free options for Italian food. My server had celiac disease and was very knowledgeable. I have been here a few times and not had any problems here.
Holy smokes, Batman!
As someone who often struggles to find great food options (especially gluten-free), Irregardless blew me away.
Our waitress—whose name I regretfully forgot, and it’s not on my receipt—was phenomenal. I told her I was torn between a few choices, and she confidently recommended the Hot Fried Chicken Sandwich (GF). Honestly? One of the best sandwiches I’ve had in over 12 years. Crispy, flavorful, and totally worth the hype.
🌱 They accommodate a ton of dietary restrictions.
🍽️ Portion sizes? Generous.
🌿 Food? Incredibly fresh and delicious.
🏡 Location? Adorable.
🚗 Parking? A bit tricky, but it’s the only “meh” part.
🪑 Inside? Cozy, charming, and quiet enough to actually enjoy a conversation.
If you’re in Raleigh and want something amazing, run—don’t walk—to Irregardless.
Everything was wonderful. They were able to work with our food allergies without issue. They accommodated gluten free, nut free, and even a garlic free guest! Room is beautiful, staff was on top of everything, would definitely recommend.
So I have autoimmune disease called Celiac Disease and that means gluten and me do not get along at all. This place has great gluten free reviews and was super excited coming here. Well now I am about ready to lose my mind. I asked my usual questions concerning gluten free items and preparations for their food/drinks. I ordered a CIDER and got served a BEER without hesitation. This is actually absurd. When somebody asks you about gluten free items and safety precautions and then immediately within 2 minutes get served a gluten containing item, it’s just actually ridiculous. The server was apologetic and kind but not knowing the difference between beer and cider is disheartening.
Food was good. We got their beignets and some breakfast stacker crepes. My Celiac wife forgot to tell them that she was gluten free so they had to remake the dish for her. They were very nice about it. Only reason for lack of star was server wasn’t very attentive and forgot silverware
Celiac friendly. The staff was knowledgeable about cross contamination and were able to highlight everything on the menu that I could eat. Delicious food and good atmosphere.
Love the gluten free options! The specialty lattes are on point. Customer service was great and the ambiance was both comfortable and eclectic. The library is a delight. There are places to work, converse, read and listen to music. Highly recommend!
Service and food were great! My only disappointment is that HQ is changing their menu and taking several items off including one of my favorite gluten free foods…street noodles.
I love popping in to Centro for lunch. Great, quick service, and reliably awesome food. The flautas and tacos are my favorites - and they even have a gluten free fried chicken taco which is so so good!
I’m a vegetarian, and the main menu has almost no meat-free dishes—but Winston’s actually is vegetarian friendly as long as you say something to the waiter. They have a complete alternative menu available: the front lists vegetarian and vegan dishes, and the back has gluten-free dishes. I can’t speak to the gluten-free options, but the vegan and vegetarian choices are excellent!
Love that it’s completely gluten free I have celiac and anxiety when trying new places but my biggest concern was what to eat I chose the khalessi bowl and hot mocha omg soooo gooooo if you like clean juice you will love this my partner had avacado toast and couldn’t tell it was gf wish I lived closer
This was my first visit to Bad Daddy's. I have Celiac disease, so gluten free options are extremely important to me, and it's a real treat for me to have a proper burger-in-a-bun rather than a lettuce wrap, even if it is a GF bun (they tend to fall apart without gluten to hold them together; no fault of the restaurant). My burger was delicious; I'll definitely come back when I need a burger fix. However, my review is mixed because I found the ambience lacking - the music was loud and of what I considered to be an obnoxious selection (personal taste, I know, but hey, it's my review). Also my menu was dirty, which was a real turn-off. A few customer-focused tweaks and it could be a five-star experience for me, but currently it's not.
Laid back, good portions of delicious food, good service. A great variety for multiple tastes. Lots of gluten free, soy free options so I get to *choose* from the menu. That doesn't happen often. I didn't think to take the photo before i ate, but this is the jackfruit biryani which was fabulous!
Enjoyed it again and again. Service and food is still excellent!! 👌 definitely recommend.
Sat on the rooftop again. Have also been inside. Inside is more lively and rooftop day or night is nice and calm more relaxed up there making it more comfortable. Also great for larger parties
Staff: nice, friendly. Good service is super important.
Food: we go here enough and it's always very good. More authentic and flavorful Greek food.
We had this time
The trio of all 3 spreads- comes with alot of pita slices (can get gluten free) which is great.
Dinner : Chicken Mykonos (comes with pasta but substituted for rice) was delicious
Also have had the Souvlaki Platters.
Gluten free: Can substitue the pasta for rice. So if that's your thing you can make it work with many dishes.
Price: for the quality it's worth it. More authentic and better ingredients
Exactly what you would expect from a better experience.
Amazing service with Daniel, he was very attentive, fast, and friendly. Great food as always, cooked well and not a long wait. Great options for gluten free, both mains and sides.
10/10 recommend!!! The food was so good and the staff was exceptionally friendly! I have a gluten intolerance and they were so knowledgeable and accommodating!!
I found my new go-to spot! I'm looking for healthy spots to eat (mainly gluten free and dairy free options). The food at Happy & Hale is not only healthy and meets my dietary needs but it's also SO DELICIOUS! Everyone working at this location is extremely friendly and makes you feel really welcome and at home. I met the owner and he's super friendly as well! Try JP's gluten free desserts - you will not be disappointed!
Brunch is LEGIT, and very reasonable on the price index
, Dinner on the other hand is more fine dining.
However it worth it, especially those with dietary restriction like vegetarian or Gluten free
Abhi and Sophie were amazing!! The food was delicious (tons of gluten free and vegetarian options), and the staff were welcoming and fun to talk to. First time visit and can’t wait to be back!
I am gluten free and the server marked which ones I would not be able to eat
, which was only three. The food all tasted good however it was never hot. Everything was luke warm to almost cold. The atmosphere was trendy and loud. We had to raise our voices to hear each other. Between the two of us, we ordered 6 small plates and it was just enough. The service was on the slow side but overall we had a wonderful night.
The food is delicious and well presented. We appreciate that they have some gluten-free options and that the menu is naturally allergies sensitive. The food is fresh and healthy! Great place to eat!
GLUTEN FREE BUNS! (+$3 for GF bun) EXCELLENT BURGERS! I ordered a build your own with Swiss cheese, sautéed onions, sautéed mushrooms, and garlic mayo and smoked mayo as my two condiments. Everything is just bursting with flavor. I agree with another reviewer, you can taste the quality. Both mayos were delicious, but the garlic mayo stole the show. My family is convinced this is the best burger place in town and it has become our go-to for burgers.
Indoor and outdoor seating, or you can sit at the bar. We usually enjoy the outdoor seating.
I ordered the Works omelet with gluten free toast and the seasoned fresh potatoes and man was it packed with flavor!! It was so delicious and I just hate that I couldn't eat it all. I would definitely eat there again when I'm in town. Customer service was great as well. It was so good that I almost forgot to take a picture.....
I've been here before a year ago or so, the service and atmosphere are wonderful, I really enjoy eating there! I got the smoked salmon frittata and it was delicious! I had to ask for a bit more salad dressing, but our server was very kind and was happy to get me some more. The reason I've given the good a low review isn't because it's bad, but because they've gotten rid of their gluten free/friendly options (still have gf toast though, it was pretty good). I was super excited to go back and even more so when I saw all the delicious Fall options for pancakes, only to find out they no longer had the option to make them gf. I hope to hear they reintroduce that in the future.

Love this place! It’s a perfect spot of girl’s night. You can sit with your friends and leisurely enjoy a great night of food and drinks. One of my friends was also gluten free and they were very diligent on making sure nothing got cross contaminated for her.
Decent cappuccino and breakfast sandwich with gluten free bread was great! Service was very fast! Went in on a Tuesday around 830am. Place was very busy, all tables full, four or five people ahead of me in line and others waiting for orders, and I was still in and out in less than 10 minutes. They had counterculture and black and white coffee available. Roast dates on available whole bean coffee bags were within a week.
We love First Watch! It's a go-to breakfast place for our family of 3. Good service, delicious food, fun specials. Keto and gluten free options for the days we don't want to go carb heavy. Highly recommend!
Good food, but there's no gluten-free bread anymore. We basically went as a family to eat breakfast with gluten-free bread, and they don't serve it anymore. 🥲
I did a catering order from Makus twice now and have received great feedback from my attendees on the food. They were great about dietary restrictions as well, having gluten free and vegetarian options. I love that they're willing to delivery for free and the food costs are reasonable as well. They're also really easy to work with when setting up the order and also setup at the event has gone smoothly both times. Highly recommend!
I have always loved this place they meet gluten and vegetarian digestions. Their menu is short yet diverse and they change it on a regular basis. The quality of food is good. However, the portions can be on the smaller side, but is plenty enough for me not likely to have any to take home
A party of four went right before Christmas. Nice selection of gluten-free options for those who need to be careful. Marked on menu and server was knowledgeable. Had chips and queso (GF), Brick Oven Salmon (GF) and chicken alfredo. All were delicious. Nice atmosphere.
After staying in Raleigh for the weekend, we were able to acclimate to the food climate in the downtown area and overall very impressed with the options.
Our visit to heirloom was for brunch, it is in a nice location with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, as well as bike racks. The Japanese omelet over rice was an incredible dish that satisfied the morning appetite. The sauce was salty and sweet and complemented the kewpie mayo and egg perfectly. Such an incredible dish that is so simple as well. The breakfast baguette was also a hit, great quality bread and the bacon was crispy and flavorful.
Unfortunately, I was in the mood for a donut so I tried the mochi gluten free donut they had. This was the biggest mistake of my trip, it was the worst donut I’ve had the misfortune of putting in my mouth. The texture was so tough and the flavor was even worse. Stick to gluten donuts.
I still give this place 5 stars since the main dishes were that good, cool place and decent price.
Got their unique pork burger with the candied bacon and blueberry ketchup on a gluten free bun. It was absolute perfection and a great size. Gf bun was also good. Not the Udi brand that falls apart. Gf crème brûlée Cheesecake was also good. Thank you!
Overall, good breakfast spot, with nice selection and good staff.
BUT, if pancakes are your thing for breakfast, go somewhere else. The pancakes are tougher than a thick leather belt. I imagine they stir the batter with every single order that goes on the griddle so, by 9am, its just a mass of rubbery gluten.
Bring sharp teeth and a steak knife for the pancakes.
Went here for the first time and wasn’t expecting much but it was GREAT. My spouse is Italian and very picky and also enjoyed it. We’ve tried lots of Italian places in Raleigh area and this is the best. Excited to bring my friends with dietary needs here as well because apparently they also have gluten free options
I’m very picky about my Alfredo (for some reason most restaurants have such bland Alfredo) but their Cajun pasta with Alfredo was very flavorful. The penne vodka is their most popular dish for good reason and also very flavorful. I also enjoyed their steak and cheese during lunch
Ian was such a helpful server!!! Helped so much with gluten free concerns and info. super yummy options for ppl w allergy concerns, great service, great vibe!!
