This was my first time visiting the restaurant. I was in town for a wedding and googled. Having celiac and egg allergy it not always easy to find a good place with good options, but I was amazed by the food here. I went back a couple time's before leaving. This is going to be my to go spot always when in SA. Staff were great, atmosphere is very cute and friendly and did I mention the food ....it was AMAZING, so delicious, great variety , it made me like a normal person enjoying food actual regular food and not having to worry about getting sick!!! A definite win!!!
We came here to celebrate our son's 23rd birthday as well as his upcoming graduation from The Culinary Institute of America, and it was well worth every cent!
We did the tasting menu and shared everything family style. The food is dairy and gluten free as well as plant-forward. That said, the braised shirt ribs did not disappoint. We left full and happy.
If you're dining with someone who doesn't like vegetables, bring them here to change their mind.
What a treat to have vegetarian and gluten free! The food was delicious! And the agua fresca was sweet and refreshing. There were so many yummy sounding choices it was hard to pick, I’ll have to come back.
The food was delicious, I was able to have chicken fried steak and gravy gluten free!
The waiter was very knowledgeable about their gluten free options as well as gluten allergy/ Celiac. There is not a separate gluten free menu however almost everything on the menu can be made gluten free and they have a separate prep area/ fryer. My only issue was it was kinda expensive, very yummy though!
We absolutely love this restaurant and eat there at least once a month.
One of the big draws from me ore. Originally, choosing this restaurant was the delicious gluten-free menu. Any authentic food.
Server Mary was exceptional! Very kind and informative regarding menu items. One of the individual’s in our party had a gluten allergy.
Food was great and atmosphere was good. Was hoping to sit outside but wasn’t able during this experience, but Mary made up for it!!!!
So there I was, minding my own business, headed toward a totally different restaurant when—bam!—Miss Chickpeas Cafetel on Callaghan Road in San Antonio popped up like a delightful little plot twist in my lunch plans. The name alone caught my eye, and I figured, hey, why not shake things up?
The moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the staff, which already made this detour feel like a good decision. The vibe? Super cute, cozy, and definitely a place with regulars (always a good sign). And while I’ll be honest—I was a little skeptical about vegan food (I mean, can it really compete with the meaty classics?)—that hesitation melted the second I laid eyes on their baked goods case. Vegan and gluten-friendly treats that looked like they just stepped off a dessert runway? Yes, please.
Before I even touched a menu, I was already halfway sold. I chatted with the friendly staff, and one of them enthusiastically recommended the Breakfast Sammy. Throwing caution—and my meat-loving instincts—to the wind, I ordered it along with a German chocolate cupcake that was practically whispering sweet nothings from the dessert case.
When the food came out, it looked great. The vegan bacon threw me for a second—it definitely looked different—but once I took a bite, I was pleasantly surprised. Not your traditional bacon texture, but flavorful and satisfying in its own right. The ciabatta roll was soft with just the right amount of chew, and the whole sandwich worked really well together.
What made the experience even better? The staff came to check on me, genuinely interested in how I was enjoying my first dive into their menu. We chatted a bit, and they let me know their baked goods come from their local bakery right here in San Antonio. Major bonus points for supporting local.
All in all, Miss Chickpeas Cafetel was a refreshing, feel-good surprise. It’s a great lighter option when you want something satisfying but not heavy. I’ll definitely be back to explore more of their breakfast offerings—and probably sneak in another cupcake (or two).
If you’ve ever been curious about vegan food but hesitant to try, let Miss Chickpeas be your gateway. It was mine—and I'm glad I took the chance.
Service is always top notch! The food was excellent, the creme brulee and drinks were awesome! I love the fact that they have so many gluten free options. Definitely will be back!
This is the perfect spot for those with sensitivities to gluten/dairy! Dairy free pancakes are especially hard to find & did not disappoint😍the syrup was enough for me, but if you like to drench your pancakes I would get extra. I also got a dirty chai latte which was also pretty good. It’s a cute spot & most of all I love that they have scripture inside☺️✝️❣️Elana was so nice & food came out fast! Highly recommend!!!
Very pleasant experience. The waitress told me “we take allergies very seriously here. We don’t have a seperate GF menu because the majority can be made GF”.
We waited 45min for party of 4 to actually be sat inside for walk-in even though requested outside seating. Had to ask for server to order food cause we may have been forgotten. Food was good although gluten tortillas debatable. Recommend if you can sit outside
Jonathan was amazing, so hospitable and knowledgeable! Gluten free options and omg was it amazing. To get a Primavera, grilled chicken, GF and to be so flavorful! The entire experience was 5 stars!
This is one of my favorite restaurants because of the gluten-free options. My order was slightly made wrong so I went back to get it corrected. Not only did they redo my burger they let me keep the other one and gave us free drinks! Julie was the shift-manager, thank you Julie!

My fiancé and I were visiting San Antonio in April for the eclipse and had dinner at Fogo de Chao for the first time. Staff were wonderful and welcoming from the moment we walked in. The servers treated all of the tables as their own. A special thank you to the manager who was kind enough to bring me the allergen list and go through item by item with me as I have celiac disease. Avoiding gluten while eating out can be daunting but she made me feel confident and safe. The food was delicious, the salad bar had multiple options and there was never a shortage of meat coming to the table. We felt very special at the end when we were surprised with a crème brûlée. We would 10/10 recommend and hope to go back someday.
Gluten-free options! The one with yogurt for me was delicious (not too sweet). The mimosa was a little strong in order to feel the lavender flavor, but it was still good. The place is so beautiful and they have a very friendly staff.

Nicolas M was absolutely amazing! He recommended the octopus, bistro steak and more. He made sure that all our questions were answered. If we had any questions at anytime just to flag him down. He never left our table without us being confident in what we were asking/ordering. I am gluten free so finding a place that accommodates and understands can be difficult at times but this place understands. They are also veteran owned! He even brought my leftovers out after being left behind! He went above and beyond! You definitely won’t be disappointed coming here!
We went to BellaGreen today for my birthday and really enjoyed everything. Don’t let the buildings facelift deter you, parking in the garage is validated as well. They also cater, including gluten free options.
We had: the OG pizza, a huge salad honey fried goat cheese and arugula, honey garlic cauliflower wings Gluten free, and kids pasta with Alfredo. For dessert the gluten free carrot cake and the apple crumble. Impressed with the gluten free options, overall restaurant cleanliness and great service. we will definitely be back.
Worth the wait!
I did the “build your own pasta” with the gluten free pasta & parmesan cheese sauce, which was delicious - being able to mix & match their pasta options to all be GF was great. Husband got the chicken parm & absolutely loved it too. Portion sizes were very generous!
We chose 4/5 as for an Italian restaurant, we were hoping for a bread appetizer that most restaurants offer, but we didn’t have that. And we do agree with the other reviewers that it is a little slow, but it’s absolutely worth the wait. Staff were all very kind & personable!
Cafe de ollo was delicious! Great spot for brunch. Very attentive staff. Seating indoor and outdoor available. Paid parking was available in the lot next door for $10. Was able to handle dietary restrictions like vegetarian, vegan and gluten free.
The food was amazing!! We got the chicken and waffles, the Crunchwrap, and the Ghost Love combo. Y’all, we were crying it’s that good (if you’re gluten free/vegan). My partner is newly gluten free and normally eats meat and said the chicken and waffles tasted like the real thing! Shout out to Michael who chatted with us and helped with recommendations. If we lived closer, we’d be back often!!
Absolutely love the their gluten free pizza! Fantastic!! Pepperoni, jalapeños and onions!! Bartenders Jasmine and Marie can pour you an exceptional drink with a top off if you like, and yes, I do! Manager Julio and kitchen manager Adrian fantastic and salt of the earth! Highly Recommend Parry’s South Rim, San Antonio. It does not disappoint!!
First time customer and was super impressed!! The food was absolutely delicious! Such a treat for people who are vegan and gluten free, I'm sure non vegans would love it too. Service was great as well. Can't wait to return soon.
Sooo delicious!! Our group came here on a Saturday afternoon for a late lunch after a rough morning. Mare e Monte did not disappoint! I had no expectation for gluten free options but yes there are some options. The service was excellent and the staff very accommodating. Everyone really enjoyed their food. All our dishes were savory yet fresh and bright. A very lovely dining experience that made our day.
Picture 1- Pollo di Piccata (made gluten sensitive)
Picture 2- Gluten sensitive bread
Picture 3- Fettuccine di Parma with chicken
Picture 4- side of zucchini & carrots
Not pictured were the amazing salads we had, ate them too fast!
This is an excellent restaurant. My wife cannot have gluten, and they serve great gluten-free options. My favorite is the chicken quesadilla with corn tortillas or the 1lb grilled chicken platter for 2. Delicious, and I am looking forward to going again.
Was in town visiting and was told by a local to try this place. Got 3 pizzas to-go for the family (1 with a gluten free crust). All were delish! Definitely recommend for take out.
Just a great place off the Riverwalk. Food is wonderful, and they don't play around when you order, fast service and hot. They do have vegetarian and gluten free.
Food- Had the candied bacon, feta, and cranberry burger. Was so good, burger was cooked and seasoned very well and nice and juicy. Came with a side of fries that were nice and crisp. Also had ordered an app of the onion rings, highly recommend.
Price for value- Burgers were definitely on the higher side of what I pay for a burger, but the quality and topping definitely offsets paying a bit more.
Allergies- They do offer gluten free buns.
Service- It was busy so had to wait a few extra minute for items, waiter was attentive as he could be.
Atmosphere- Nice larger beer garden, and plenty of fans outside too which is nice. Fun vibe.
Update
1/10/25 Daniel was our server tonight and he was excellent in word and action. He was exceptionally polite and inviting. The food was great!
Peyton was the best waiter! He was attentive to several tables and kept everyone happy. He was personable and friendly. We enjoyed our evening celebrating our son's birthday. The food was delicious and came out quickly. Peyton paid attention to details and kept the drinks (root beer) flowing, and the table cleared of empty plates and glasses. We were pleased with the service.
The manager even offered to bring out samples of prime rib for my husband to choose which one he preferred. It was cooked to perfection and had great flavor. My gluten free burger and salad were delicious. The gluten free pazookie and ice cream were also yummy.
Not recommended if you have celiac disease. Stated they are gluten free on the phone how ever came in and they said they actually aren’t really gluten free and there is a lot of cross contamination.
Absolutely Delicious and Timely!
We were passing through on the way back from Hill Country and ordered two pizzas from the road.
Sofia's recommendations were spot-on, and her time-estimate exact!
We stopped right in, picked up the pizzas, and hit the road again. The Gluten-Free pizzas are larger than you'd think, and so tasty!
Thanks again!
They have a gluten free menu you just have to ask! Most sides can be gluten free, just make sure to specify an allergy—ask for corn tortillas and no chips(shared fryer). I am extremely symptomatic and have had no issues here. Brushfire is my fave with poblano ranch!
Server was very good at his job. We split the pizza and Caesar salad. Both were excellent. The sauce was chunky rather than blended. Just the right amount too. Finished with the gluten free cookie with vanilla ice cream. Would have been 5 stars but didn't have the gluten free beer I was looking forward to. While I understand that not many people order it, so probably not something you're going to have in stock, I was looking forward to it though :(
We had a family dinner of 5. A young child who was ready to eat, and our wonderful server Joel was right on it & got her order immediately. Followed through with each of us & our food was perfection. Including a gluten free dinner. Will definitely return.
We got a table on short notice and were given a wam greeting a seated immediately. My wife must be gluten free and our waiter was extremely well versed in what the kitchen could and could not do for her. We split a rack of lamb and it was cooked perfectly. I had an order of cornbread that was delicious. For dessert the chef prepared a gluten free Grand Marnier Vanilla Soufflé that my wife said was the absolute best dessert she has had in 30 years!!
This is one of my favorite restaurants in San Antonio! The ambiance is fabulous and the food is incredibly delicious. When people are visiting, I bring them here because it feels elevated and unique. I love the boba cocktails and gluten free options. There's something for everyone! The noodles are a top favorite, but it's good to go with others so you can share and try different things. It's a perfect place for a date or celebration. Make sure to support this spot so it stays for a long time!
Seasons 52 offers a polished yet approachable dining experience centered around seasonal, fresh ingredients. Located at the Alamo Quarry Market, this upscale grill and wine bar is a favorite for both casual meals and special occasions.

Popular menu items include the Cedar Plank-Roasted Salmon, Caramelized Sea Scallops, and Wood-Grilled Filet Mignon.

Overall:
Seasons 52 blends quality, flavor, and wellness in a beautiful setting. It’s a solid pick for those looking for a fresh, lighter alternative to traditional upscale dining. Reservations recommended for peak hours.
It's rare for me to review a place where the server first AND the food are the star! We came for Sunday brunch and we were lucky to get Jessie as our server. We had a member in our group who has a gluten allergy and we chose this place because they have gluten friendly options. Since we have an allergy, we usually have to ask questions. Not only was Jessie well versed in gf options, he still went back to the kitchen at least 4 or 5 times to ensure our order. He went over the top and it was very much appreciated. And he did it with a huge, warm smile! The food and drinks were fantastic! The ambiance and music were top notch! Highly recommend!!
The food is a-MAZ-ing!! Even had gluten-free options that were simply fantastic! We had the Shrimp & Grits and the Bay of Fundy Salmon to share so we could sample each other's food. Mom got the Vice cake and the flavors in it were awesome. Can't wait to come back!!
Wait staff ignorant about food allergies and what's on their menu--led to illness. Despite my asking specifically for a gf menu (which they don't have one for their Sunday's menu) I made sure waitress knew I was allergic to gluten and dairy. She didn't know at all what on the Sunday menu could be made gf, which surprised me, so manager had to come over to let me know. I then ordered from waitress based on manager's info and specified vegan cheese on my migas and lots of extra vegan cheese. Asked the corn tortillas be extra crispy, too. Very specific. Instead got lots of real cheese and didn't realize it til half way done eating it and after asking the manager if it was real cheese which she confirmed it was. I rarely have real cheese so I'm not used to the taste and had to make sure and ask. Also, apparently when you order crispy migas without the vegetables...they give you plain corn tortillas rolled up in aluminum foil on the side instead of cutting them up and cooking them with the eggs. I mean, seriously???? I basically had scrambled eggs w cheese and paid for cold corn tortillas on the side. Had to take benadryl, lactose pills and IB right then and now an hour later my head predictably aches and my face is still hot. Hoping I don't get the usual migraine from dairy. Great way to start a Sunday. Oh, and waitress ignored us completely from then on: no apology, no trying to make it right, no clearing table, no refilling waters-- she just waited on tables all around and ignored us entirely. We had to get up to ask for all above and even to ask for the check from manager. Before leaving I told manager she's the worst waitress I've ever had (shes got dark brown hair with purple colored ends), is dangerous to customers, and since I used to wait tables in college I know what it takes. The manager apologized and tried to make it right by removing my meal from the order and offering a gf cupcake to go (which is only reason for the high 2 stars rating), but she confirmed the waitress is NOT new. In summary, Sunday menu needs to be updated with gf info and staff needs some serious retraining on what their menu is made up of, what good customer service looks like, and the seriousness of food allergies and sensitivities. Place is dangerous until they do.
