1000/10! If I lived in Tucson, Renee’s would be seeing me ALOT. Lots of Gluten Free options and super yummy! If you’re in Tucson and need a romantic dinner spot this is the one, the vibe was literally perfect!
Wow. I was so excited to try Vero Amore. I was astounded by how much our server hates gluten free and was completely unwilling to even discuss options. I asked about sauces for the pasta and she said, “I don’t know what you are allergic to, the description on the menu tells you what is in it” I wound up with gf penne with crushed tomato sauce and baked chicken. I was told I couldn’t have any cheese as it all had gluten. She was aggressively unwilling to help to the point I had to ask for her to get someone else to help me. I didn’t choose to have celiac disease and I know it can be hard for restaurants. I try to ask reasonable questions to stay safe and have never encountered this level of unwillingness to even try to accommodate. I thought going to a local restaurant with gluten free options on the menu would be fun and it turned out to be embarrassing and uncomfortable for our entire party in a way that I have never experienced. I gave one stars because I didn’t get sick. It was flavorless food and the worst service I have ever experienced. Don’t go here.
Actually, the bar tender was really nice and the drinks were great. The GM was also really nice when we talked with him before our meal.
We were a party of eight for Easter brunch, we ordered the tomato mozzarella drizzled in balsamic vinegar. The tomato was thin and appeared to have been overproduced from Saturday or even Friday a fresh basil leaf would have enlivened the presentation. We also ordered fried mozzarella. The breading was fresh and nicely fried, there was no flavor transfer indicating good fryer discipline. The gluten free mushrooms and cheese pizza enjoyed by my companions was well presented but not distinctive. The Tomato sauce used for the chicken parm and as a basis for the other tomato pasta dishes was flavorful. I noticed all of the pasta dishes were made with linguini. Unfortunately, the pasta appears to have been cooked long past al dente in bulk long ahead of service. NOT cooked to order. I’m not even sure the pasta was rinsed and chilled in ice water because the texture was so starchy because it may not have been cooked in enough water. It may not have been reheated in water but rather brought up to heat in some kind of green congealed creamy sauce with little distinct flavor of pesto no visible arugula or basil leaf entwined in a vibrant pasta pesto. The sunflower seeds were interesting but my northern Italian culinary training pesto is Pinole. When the dish was presented it appeared to have been molded in a bowl and turned onto plate guaranteed to hold its shape. The Service was friendly customer focused and very responsive. Outdoors under the veranda was perfect. Overall we enjoyed each others company
Very great experience. The staff was amazing Phoebe you made my experience that much more for myself and my family. Thank u for your kindness and making us feel as if we were home. The cook-GM you rocked are Pizza. The Godfather Gluten free was to die for and just a regular cheese Gluten free just as good, oh yeah extra marinara sauce topped it off.
Thank u again
This place is the best dang Chinese food I’ve ever had, not only that. They can make gluten free on most their plates. And it taste just as good. Seriously, I could eat this every single night. Me and the hubby love it! We drive across town just to eat there. Lady who owns the place is super sweet also.
Excellent Mexican cuisine...not just the regular dishes, tortilla stuffed chicken and shrimp poblano elegante enchiladas, plus more
Guacamole made table side.
One of the best micheladas I've had.
Almost everything can be gluten free (except burritos) with corn tortillas.
Service is friendly.
Outdoor seating when it's seasonable.
We had four different meals and a dessert and all were fantastic and almost everything on the menu was gluten free. My wife cant have gluten so it was a great surprise that she could order almost anything on the menu instead of just a couple of things.
Never had this kind of flavor.. wine soaked onions and wonderful Angus burger. I got a gluten free bun and it was so amazing. Scratch based kitchen made everything amazing. Gotta try!

I have mixed feelings. When we arrived the service was great & the waitress took an interest in our allergies (gluten, dairy). She told us about cross contamination & was so great.
Two of us were served our sandwiches (which were very good) but our friend did not receive her salad. We ordered a cutlery board & it came 1/2 way through our meal but the hummus was covered in cheese. I had to send it back
We finished our meal & our plates were cleared . A waitress (Shane) came with just a plate of gluten free bread. I explained that I sent hummus cutlery board back because it had cheese & decided to just cancel.
However, I was charged for the hummus cutlery board even though it was never served. When I told her, she seemed upset, grabbed the receipt & said she would have it removed. Crazy experience.
The guy who refilled our drink & cleared out table was super excellent.
Their veggie burger is very good and I’m obsessed with their farm salad. However, their gf bun is not very good. i just had to remove the bun entirely and wrap in the lettuce. Its nice they have the option though, so ant least why made an effort to accommodate gluten sensitivity. Also my most recent order was to-go and I paid $6 for a side of fries and i assumed that would be enough for two people, but it was an individual serving? Maybe they put the wrong size fry in our order? Overall good service, but there is room for improvement
When my girlfriend asked to make a note of her gluten allergy, the women at the drive through mockingly repeated "cAn YoU mAkE a nOtE" and then when we got to the window she was very condescending. Food allergies are serious and should not be mocked. Very rude staff, will not be revisting
I have traveled several countries and eaten many pizza's, but Barro's has the best! I don't know what they do to make it so delicious, but whenever we are in Tucson visiting family, we always look forward to eating there. Perfect balance of flavors. Never too hot. Just 🤌🏻 perfection. I am always pleasantly surprised by the price! Keep it up! They do have gluten free dough! Check out the menu online for more info!
I absolutely love this restaurant! It’s my favorite restaurant in Tucson! Not just the food but also the atmosphere and service. My father and I like to go and I always get the butter chicken and garlic naan. He always gets the shrimp tandoori. The vegetable pakora is great too. My father is gluten and dairy free and he has no issues eating there. The staff is knowledgeable about what items are gluten and dairy free and I have never had a bad experience. I also love that they will customize what level of heat you want in your dish.
Great tamales, great (welcoming, nice, helpful) service. Good vegetarian options, and clear markings for veg vs. vegan and gluten free. Sides are delicious too. Don’t forget some cinnamon crisps to go!
Ate it so fast didn't grab a photo. But absolutely delish. One of our favorite weekend breakfast stops when we're near by. I love the gluten free omelette. The smoked tomato has the perfect extra flavor. It's absolutely yum. I tend to stick to one item once I find it, but my husband has tried many different offerings and never a complaint. Highly recommend stop by and take a try. Not sure the bloody Marys are gluten free, but I drool every time one walks by the table. Give it a try.

The quality of the food has definitely dropped, based on my experience there last night. The egg drop soup used to be rich and flavorful, last night it was thin and bland. The lettuce wraps are now served with ridiculously small lettuce leaves that you can’t make a wrap with, and the peanut sauce tasted like salad dressing. They have also eliminated many gluten free options, a reason I used to enjoy this restaurant. I’d no longer recommend it. The waitstaff were very good, too bad the food wasn’t.
New Delhi Palace has great food options, even Vegan and Gluten Free.
The naan was the size of an 8 inch pizza, so dig in. The Tikka Masala has the right amount of spices. I had mild this time, I’ll go hotter next time.
I took home some Gulab Jamun.
Amazing first experience at Fleming's. They've got a slew of Gluten Free options, and even a separate menu. The petite filet was phenomenal, asparagus and mushrooms super tasty and Joe, our waiter, was absolutely kind and just wonderful! I'd be happy to go back some day!

Both their regular pizzas and gluten free versions are delicious. For those that need a gluten free pizza, the large size is bigger than other pizza joints I've seen that tend to max out at a smaller size.
Great Mexican restaurant! The staff is. Ery friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is very relaxed. Great food, many options and good size portions. There is also keto friendly menu, vegetarian, vegan and gluten free. I recommend it 💯
We used to go here with our daughter when she lived in town, but hadn't been there again until recently. The manager, server, and food were good with the exception of the change in the Gluten Free bun recently to Against the Grain, which has dairy and is like a brick. Please change back to something that isn't so hard and doesn't have dairy in it!!
