Leigh Houston

This diner is a godsend for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivities! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about safe preparation and the food is solid. Highly recommend!

Guemallia Laurent

The only thing I credit them for is the impeccable service but I think the food could be better. I wish they offered more gluten free options.

Catherine M

Gluten free tricolor cake and black & white cookies!

Veronica

The food was great. It was quick. It’s a nice atmosphere and the service is excellent. It is cash only and in spite of the sign as you’re walking up, it is not gluten-free.

Susan W

Amazing gf food with gf kitchen

Anthony Gerber

Best gluten free sandwich I've ever had!!! They use Two Fields Italian rolls which is the only edible gluten-free bread in my opinion. I was skeptical to try because of how much I disliked other gluten-free sandwiches such as the warm have a Jersey Mike's. I was pleasantly surprised! I'll definitely be going back.

Natalie Tremitiedi

100% gluten free and food it’s organic !!! Such a good experience and the food is amazing !

Rachel

Almost killed our friend with celiac. Got there at 6:30, didn’t receive food until 8:00. Food received was cold and not appetizing. Never came over to tell us what the issue was and left us hungry.

Sam Griff

We got gluten free pretzels for my wedding and they were amazing!

Meghan Kosequat

One of my favorite spots. I’m celiac so I’m extra thankful for places like this. I’m not always in the area but when I am I stop in twice! KITCH muffin for breakfast with citrus black and turkey club with sparkling lemonade for lunch are my favorite and my kids love sitting in there sweet garden area to eat. I recommend ordering online first even if going to sit and eat there. Love the atmosphere and the staff. Small space but warm and inviting.

This is our go to place to eat safely! I have never gotten sick from eating here

Maja Conforti

I love that it caters to guests on a gluten free diet. Delicious food, caring owner, great ambiance. My husband and friends, who have no dietary restrictions, enjoyed it very much as well. We all went back another time.

Melanin Essence

It’s very difficult to find restaurants with gluten-free items. It’s much appreciative that they have gluten-free waffles and pancakes on the food was good.

Lauren Gedeon

Great place for a quick brunch! Many gluten free options, and the food is not greasy at all.

Hadas Gold

Ate here twice during our weekend. it’s a fun spot with so many different hot dog options. For us the best part was how awesome they are with allergies - our son is wheat free/gluten free so the fact he could get essentially anything on the menu was so exciting. Chili dog with cheese? Sure. Mac n cheese! Or a brownie ! They’re super careful here. And “Tommy” is so lovely, fun, considerate and clearly enjoys his shop! I wish more places made the same effort for allergy folks!

Jen D

Love true foods ! Waitress was very accommodating for my daughter order who just wanted a gluten free pizza with red sauce and vegan cheese . Love the lavender matcha ! I always order that and so many vegan options. First time trying the vegan cookie and ice cream was delish !

Upon arriving, we received a not very warm welcome which set a not nice tone for the evening. However, things quickly became a bit disappointing. When being seated, the host mentioned he saw the Resy notes indicating someone in our party was plant-based and gluten-free and asked if we’d like that menu. If it was already noted in the reservation, it would’ve made sense to have those menus ready at the table or automatically offered. Otherwise — what’s the point of specifying it ahead of time? Our server, Mary, unfortunately wasn’t very knowledgeable about the plant-based, vegan, or gluten-free options. She seemed unsure of the menu, had to double-check multiple times, and lacked confidence in answering basic questions about ingredients and modifications. It’s frustrating as a guest when you take the time to add dietary preferences in advance specifically to avoid situations like this. The veggie soup was far too salty and unenjoyable, though the eggplant parmesan was actually pretty good. The Saratoga still water isn’t a personal favorite and it was the only option, so I had to add several lemon wedges just to make it palatable. The most disappointing moment was when I asked about plant-based desserts. Mary seemed confused by the request until my mom clarified by saying “vegan dessert,” which then prompted her to bring over a tray of pre-made dessert shooters to choose from. Honestly, that felt off-putting. Who knows how long those had been sitting out or how many tables they’d been to that night. It just wasn’t an appealing or thoughtful presentation, especially for a restaurant that prides itself on seasonal and fresh offerings. The restaurant was nearly empty given it was the 4th of July, so it would’ve been an ideal opportunity for attentive service. I’m hoping this was just an off night, perhaps due to holiday staffing. I might give them another try on a regular evening to see if it was an isolated issue — but based on this visit, it definitely missed the mark.

I’ve eaten here safely 4 times with celiac (very sensitive to cc) I love the wings, fries, and fried Brussels! Can be a longer wait for a table but worth it for the extensive gf menu and safe prep.

Jessica Baltadonis

Brigantine is such a cute town to get away from when staying in AC. I love coming here because they have a wide range of things to eat for breakfast to dinner, and they’re accommodating to gluten free diners. They also allowed my pup outside and brought her chicken breast that I ordered in a doggy bowl. It definitely feels like a homey locals spot and I always look forward to visiting!

Michael Carroll

Best gluten free bakery we have found over the years .

Chathura Wijesinghe

Merey Venezuelan Cuisine offers an authentic and flavorful taste of Venezuela in a cozy, welcoming environment. The food is consistently delicious—whether you’re diving into a loaded arepa, sampling cachapas, or enjoying gluten-free goodies. With personable service and meticulous allergy care, it’s a top pick for a comforting, vibrant dining experience in Highland Park.

My experience here was definitely average; 2.5 stars seems more accurate that 2. It looked nice from the outside and and the menu offerings looked good when we previewed online, FOOD: my gluten free buttermilk chicken sandwich and gluten free fries were good. However, my husband ordered the coffee (not good) and the cheesesteak sandwich, which he said tasted like steak ums. (So quality for the price was a mixed bag for us.) SERVICE: A major plus was the hostess and busser. The hostess was super friendly and gracious, and the busser (who also appeared to refill water) was observant and quick to take care. The server was knowledgeable of the menu (I’m gluten free, so that’s important to me), but her quality of service completely paled in comparison to the other staff. ATMOSPHERE: I really thought it would be great (and loved this antique cash register at the hostess stand!) But the vibe felt pretentious and put-on; plus, the place was unexpectedly loud. Like the acoustics of the place weren’t set well or sound didn’t absorb well; every sound seemed magnified. I don’t usually write such long reviews, but this experience was so strange to me. Overall, I’d order gluten free takeout from there, but that’s about it. When we choose to go out to eat, we want to love the experience; this review probably makes me seem like a “Karen”, but I’ve had a lot of serving experience and am pretty understanding. Blue Plate just didn’t meet the expectations that they set with the way they present themselves as an establishment.

Spanish and English: I had the vegan cachapa, the apple pie panda, which were really good, and the veggie empanada was just right. The vibe in the place was very chill but busy. There were plenty of options to choose from if you are gluten-free. They were accommodating. The person at the register didn't really know the ingredients well. They got part of my order wrong, so just be mindful to repeat what you are ordering to the person at the register a couple of times. Their food was delicious. I would go again. There is indoor seating. Very quaint with lots of Hispanic-inspired artwork. There is not a lot of seating.

Gluten free and celiac

Alana Hoffert

I have celiac disease and this place was great! I chose it because of that, but they had a whole gluten free menu. I haven’t had fried food in a long time, but they have a dedicated fryer and the mozerella sticks are great! Highly recommend.

kerry buckman

Best food, fresh and amazing for Celiacs! The nachos are so delicious!!! Highly recommend!

Bernadette Delaney

RUN here if you have celiac or other GF needs. They have fried donuts that don't taste like dry cake. SO GOOD. The marscapone donut was my favorite. The Nutella bites were good, but not as good as I hyped them up in my mind. If this place was around the corner from me I'd be here daily.

Catherine M

Amazing short rib tacos, dedicated fryer, knowledgeable staff

will krupka

Johnette Mannato

Susana Abad

This place is my favorite place ever! Best gluten free options and best Italian food in general. Vicky was very helpful and attentive, would always recommend

Rachel Kaczor

This place is amazing! I have celiac disease and have a hard time finding safe places to eat. I had the gluten free chicken tender platter and chocolate chip cookies, which were both unbelievable. The wait staff was incredibly kind and attentive and explained that everything was prepared separately using a dedicated fryer. My gluten consuming family also loved their food. My husband said it was the best pastrami he’s ever had and my son had an “extra cheesy” grilled cheese. The owner visited our table and introduced himself. Cannot recommend this place enough!

Kelcey Rojas

It's hard to find good gluten free doughnuts especially with alot of different toppings and options..which they have a ton of options here...and these are fresh and taste amazing!

Andrea Marie

Visiting the area from Pennsylvania and LOVED eating here! Gluten Free menu options! TONS of choices! Decent pricing, extremely fast service, attentive service, friendly & comfortable atmosphere!

Karla Yatckoske

I ordered from Busy Bee on UberEats and was very pleased with my order! The breakfast burrito was so tasty and filling; that plus a slice of banana bread made two meals for me! I really appreciated that the sauce is dairy free! The gluten free tortilla was tasty and did not fall apart. The granola and banana bread were both very tasty as well! I'm gluten free, dairy free, and pescatarian, and I'm so happy to have found this restaurant that has tasty and nourishing options!

Nolan Albrecht

Excellent Mexican food with great service. Staff was very knowledgeable about my party’s food allergies(gluten, nut) and was able to prepare the food safely. 10/10 would eat here again.

Raul Colina

First time. Definitely, I will save this place for next time. They have gluten-free food for real.

Wonderful lunch 2 days in row while in the area. They offer gluten free burgers and fries and even have dairy free oat based cheese for those with sensitivities.

Jhon Pineda

Bareburger has a variety of options for people with dietary restrictions, like gluten-free buns and vegan patties. A great choice for anyone with specific needs. My wife has celiac and Ashley, our server, made sure everything was safe and helped us understand the allergy chart they provide.

Sabrina K

Separate fryer for fries. gF buns toasted in separate toaster and prep area. Very allergy aware and celiac friendly

Stephanie Garcia

Spanish and English: I’ve had to eat at Tacoria 10+ times… just make sure you communicate your allergies clearly. There are some tasty options that are gluten/dairy/nut free. My favorite is the Brussels sprout tacos. Wow, I’ve dreamed about these. That is how good they are. The food is so flavorful. You can also get the burrito box, which is essentially a bowl. Rice, beans, and your protein. Fantastic. Especially with their spicy sauce. My non-vegan friends love this place too! // Spanish I’ve had to eat at Tacoria more than ten times.
