Unbelievably tasty crispy pillowy chewy gluten-free pizza crust I’ve ever tried. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️My go-to so far is the ‘Sofia’ with mushrooms, artichoke & Italian ham. Superb service. Take your date, your mum, or heck yourself, here for a treat!

Great 100% gluten free spot! It is also raw and vegan, so it does not have the most traditional meals and desserts but they are still very yummy. I enjoyed the various raw desserts we ordered and my cashew cheese quesadilla.

Evolution is a true gem for anyone seeking exceptional plant-based cuisine. As someone who values both vegan and gluten-free options, I was glad to discover this restaurant that offers both. The kitchen clearly takes pride in making everything fresh from scratch, and you can absolutely taste the difference in every bite. While the interior seating is limited, the atmosphere actually adds to the charm of the dining experience. The staff are knowledgeable about the ingredients and care about ensuring every guest has a great meal. Don’t skip dessert! Their gluten-free vegan desserts are absolutely divine and prove that dietary restrictions don’t mean sacrificing your indulgences. Evolution has mastered the art of creating delicious, wholesome food that happens to be vegan. Highly recommend for vegans, those with gluten sensitivities, and really anyone who appreciates freshly prepared food. I plan to be returning soon!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Enjoy eating more plant based foods.

This place is fantastic. I have celiac and a wheat/oat allergy and the staff was knowledgeable about all allergens for menu items. I had no bad reactions to the food afterward. The food is delicious too - I'm an omnivore who eats vegan/vegetarian a decent amount. It stands amongst some of my favorite restaurants ever (non vegan included). Did not think it being vegan detracted from flavor whatsoever. Highly recommend, especially if you have gluten sensitivity.

First time here after seeing many positive reviews for celiac diners who have to eat gluten free. I also need to be dairy free and egg free and that had a generous selection of vegan items so I had high hopes for a good experience. They met my expectations! The sever made me feel comfortable right away when I let him know my needs. He directed me to the 2 gf pasta choices and the vegan sauces. They even had bread I could eat with their amazing tomato sauce. It’s been years since I’ve been able to have bread in a restaurant with my family. The pasta even held up to being reheated for leftovers without falling apart- bravo!!!

We've been here dozens of times and it's always a hit with my young boys. Fresh frosted cookies has been one of the only things I can't find since my kids have been gluten free. I've looked extensively over the last 7 years, I've tried mail order, everywhere. The blueberry muffins and rice krispie treats are also a favorite for them. Coco & Jules has made cookies and cupcakes for my son's birthday, holidays, and parties. It's always perfect and delicious. Coco & Jules is our favorite place for gluten free treats. We travel all over and most gf things can't match the quality & freshness of Coco & Jules. The staff is always wonderful and so welcoming.

Wow. Just wow. We just had an absolutely elite meal here. It's an unassuming spot, with a casual but cozy ambiance. Great for a date, celebration, or really any time you want a delicious plate of pasta. If they have the mushroom flan, start with that. It was savory, and flavorful. We had the gluten free version, but I'm sure the normal is excellent as well. I was impressed with the range of gluten free options, which is always appreciated for me (celiac). My partner had the crab and shrimp cream sauce with lemon linguini pasta, and she raved about it. I had the same linguini, but with the sausage saffron sauce, and loved it. The dessert menu had a number of decadent sounding options, we settled for thr ugly chocolate cake and the GF tiaramisu. The tiaramisu was so creamy it was almost a pudding - tasty, and melt in your mouth smooth. The ugly chocolate cake (that's what they call it) was lighter than I expected, rich, but kinda airy like a soufflé. Anyway, I can't say enough about this spot. It's a gem. If you want good pasta, this place delivers in spades.

Omg An’s Gelato is AMAZING. They start off by taking you on a “flavor tour” where you sample all of their flavors (about 6. They rotate their flavors every couple of weeks). Most flavors are gluten free, but let them know you have an allergy because they do have an occasional flavor that isn't GF. The staff is very knowledgeable. They even make their own GF waffle cones and occasionally GF cookies and breads that they mix into their flavors. I'm not kidding when I say that you will get HOOKED on this place. The first time I tasted their Canvas flavor (olive oil and rosemary with black salt- i know it sounds weird, but TRUST ME) it transported me to another dimension of complete bliss and euphoria with no worries in the world. It's no surprise that this place was awarded #1 Best Gelato/ ice cream in the country. The lines are always long- so expect to wait over 30 minutes on any given day. But it is worth the wait. They also have a location in Del Mar called An’s Hatmakers, and a location inside Petco Park called An's Athletic Field Services.

TLDR: celiac friendly My celiac friend and I stopped by to try out their gluten free flatbread and she took half of hers to go which is highly uncommon. Most gf breads are like cardboard or rubbery but this flatbread tasted just like gluten bread! She didn't get sick so there was definitely no gluten in it but whatever it was, it was amazing! I ordered gluten full tortellini which looked and tasted like it was made in house and I was completely satisfied with my meal. We stopped by just as happy hour was ending and our waiter was quick to help us get some happy hour wine orders in before it was too late. The bathroom... it an experience. Like many cities, some locations work within their confines and RoVino got very clever. The restroom is a short walk outside the restaurant which at first seems so strange because they have someone walk you down to it. At the end of the block, tucked away you'll find a very clean little walk to a door with their logo. Type in the code and you enter a 1 stall restroom. It was so random but well done, I'll be talking about that little experience for a while.

I think it's very nice that they have gluten free options here, and all of the workers seemed very polite except one. The worker checking me out had such an attitude. He had short brown hair and when i politely asked for the gluten free creme brulee he gave me such a rude look and said "your confusing me, look in the case that's all we have right now" in a very rude tone. While i'm not upset that they were limited on the gluten free options that day, i am upset that the worker had to be disrespectful to a customer trying to find a gluten free option. It was confusing as online they had a long list of gluten free options but only 2 available things in store.

Several items in the bakery display were labelled gluten free, but when went to eat them, we discovered they weren't actually gluten free. The panna cotta was atop a wheat cake, for example. The lack of care for these details means I'd recommend anyone with dietary restrictions to avoid this establishment

I sought this place out during a short trip to San Diego because it’s seed-oil free, is committed to using organic and whole ingredients, and has lots of gluten-free options. Parakeet Café did not disappoint. I ordered their eggs and salmon w/ gluten free toast, and the acai bowl….they were both so good that I went I ordered the exact same thing at the Coronado location later that day. The staff were also nice.

Update: We went to try their brunch. The food was great, we tried the salmon and the steak eggs Benedict. We also tried an eggplant dish. The appetizer salad was amazing, very fresh and flavourful. There was one huge issue though, we had two people in our group with a food allergy and A.R. dropped the ball on providing a safe and allergy friendly experience.They brought out regular bread instead of gluten free. A bite was eaten off the bread before we realized it was not allergen friendly, it was regular bread. The manager came over and said that they would compensate our meal completely. She even encouraged we get dessert. She also informed us that the staffed was educated on the importance of being careful when serving people with allergies. We were satisfied with the resolution. However, when we asked for the original total of our check, so we can tip on the original amount, she informed us that we would have to pay for two of the entrees. We don't mind paying and never expected to get credited for the whole meal prior to her offering to do so, but it was something she offered and said would happen. It was off putting, why even offer it. My suggestion is to see if that is something you can do BEFORE offering to take care of the whole check. Old review: The food is great 90 percent of the time. They experiment with ingredients and have different dishes depending on the season. Usually, the dishes they serve are great. Some are fails but they make it right. Drinks are good too, my favorite is the paloma. They are wonderful with allergies and always accommodate my wheat allergy. They even have gluten-free biscuits! They go well with the charcuterie board. The customer service is always on point, that's what keeps us coming back. Free valet parking out front of the hotel.

We enjoyed the food. I have celiac and I’m trying have less sugar. The prices are high but I should expect that for such a specific type of food. I felt like the baller bread was my favorite. We had a few donuts and the peanut butter cup. I’d love for them to work more with monk fruit or stevia rather than erythritol but I enjoyed it. The guy working there was also very nice and helpful. I’d love if the prices were a bit more visible and easy to find. But we were very happy and the bread was wonderful.

The food was wonderful. It's hard to find a restaurant that has good gluten free options that the kids and adults will all like. Our waiter wasn't the friendliest, but when there was an issue with some chicken that had been ordered, handled it quickly and notified the manager who was very quick to resolve this issue. Would definitely recommend.

I visited this cafe while on vacation with my girlfriend & I wish I could take it home with me! The menu was creative. The london fog is finished with charcoal. They offered a lot of gluten free items. I had the most delicious gluten free pastries here. The coffee was great & the cafe itself is very chic. The patrons were fun to listen to & mesh with. There were a lot of regulars. We ordered the flower child & the encinitas on gluten free bread. The bread was dense & dry, but overall okay for gf bread. I would like to try more of their menu next time. We will definitely visit when we come back to San Diego!

Went here for lunch today. I usually avoid popular restaurants like this because of the long wait times. But, today a Thursday around 3PM wasn't bad--there was no wait. I usually try to avoid pastas but decided to give one a try today. I usually go for Alfredo because they are safe. I ordered the Da Vinci which is a creamy mushroom pasta with chicken. It was very savory and good I would recommend it. Got dessert had to get a cheesecake. You can't go wrong with any of the flavors today I had a chocolate one but I want to go back for a lime coconut one. They did have 2 no sugar added lower calorie options for the cheesecake which is great for people who are trying to eat less sugar. "Low-Licious Cheesecake. Low Carb, No Sugar Added and Gluten Free Cheesecake."

Our waiter Luca, didn't give us the full experience. Sadly I heard another waitress doing her job with such class and enthusiasm. No specials were said, the other waitress greeted her table with the specials. Apparently we weren't special. My husband's meal was lacking flavor and chicken. 3 small bits of chicken with his penne pasta. My daughters Alfredo, sauce was bland and this Mama never adds salt to ANYTHING, but this NEEDED it. It was great after I added some flavor. My tortellini fungi was amazing. My son's pizza and my mother gluten free pizza(yes they have gluten free pasta and pizza)was tasty. Never did we just get drink refills, we had to ask. Sadly I wished our waiter made our first experience here a nicer one. Don't think hubby will want to come back. 😢

Asked for gluten free and vegan options, staff was not helpful. They just stated they were out of gluten free/vegan cookies without offering other options. Got a scoop of mint chip it tasted like the main ingredient is butter or fake vanilla. Will not be returning, literally the worst ice cream I've had in my life.

So you want/need a place with spacious, calming ambiance inside seating, as well as outside seating? You need to bring 15 friends?, well, they got you with plenty of room! ~Or maybe you meet one friend but have three hour’s worth of catching up to do? ~This is The Place! ~Where they have amazing vegan, gluten free donuts with chocolate frosting that tastes like a 5 star Michelin Bakery, haha!! Or maybe a beyond perfect raspberry square with a light buttery shortbread dough and perfection on the crumble topping which is not overly sweet that would please your Scottish Grandmom? How about awesome sandwiches, great toasted and cream cheese bagels, or Topo Chico if you don’t want coffee or tea?? AND Kind and cheerful waitstaff~Yes! We have been to many, many coffee shops/cafes around SD! So many seem to get their baked goods from Bread and Cie, which is ok, but super repetitive! I cannot say enough about this place. It is That Great! You will not be disappointed! Lastly there is a super cool little plant nursery that has wonderful succulent plants among others! There are also nice art cards and a small selection of gifts offered there! Enjoy!!

It was our 21st anniversary so the wife and I decided to go someplace with a nice view that was a bit more expensive FOR US, than normal. I was a bit annoyed to start when all the parking was taken while the valet spots had many many spots available. I realize it’s only $10 plus tip but when you save for a fancy meal, you should anticipate that. The staff let me know that rarely happens. But it did happen to me. Once we got to our seats it was worth it. The view is gorgeous. The food was pretty good in that our carne asada was extremely tender. Must’ve been a great cut of meat. Upscale Mexican is not quite the same for me when we live by so many good Mexican places. But for a tourist, I’m sure it’s perfect. Beyond the view I felt our waiter was the best part of the meal. His name was Matthew. He was patient with us and very helpful with the gluten free items since I have celiac disease. (I didn’t get sick btw) He was nice and as talkative as we wanted. We never felt rushed and we actually appreciated how he went out of his way to assure us to tarry. Our dessert was nice and the cafe moto coffees were excellent. If I were a bit more wealthy and not a pastor, we would probably visit even more.

This is a great spot for fast, tasty food—whether you’re craving a burger, chicken sandwich, or even a veggie option. They’ve also got gluten-free buns and lettuce wraps, which is always a plus. Since it’s Pride Month 🏳️‍🌈, they’re offering colorful rainbow sprinkles on your shake to support GLAAD, which we love! I tried the Banana Pudding shake, and it was pretty good—loaded with crumbled vanilla wafers and fresh bananas. Other limited-time shakes include the Oreo Cookie Funnel Cake and Campfire S’mores—definitely worth stopping in while they’re still available! Ordering is quick and easy—they have kiosks inside, or you can order ahead online or through the app. There’s plenty of seating both indoors and out, and they even have a parking lot (a rare find in Little Italy!) It’s a solid stop for a quick, satisfying meal—and now’s a great time to go grab a shake and show some Pride! 🌈🥤💛

I ordered a chocolate cake for my birthday and it was amazing! My friends couldn’t even tell it was a gluten free and dairy free cake. It’s so rich so a little goes a long way! I can’t wait to order again :)

Upon ordering, I asked if the dressing in the salad was gluten free. The employee was very helpful, went back to check and even showed me a picture of the ingredients. When the salad came, there were 2 slices of bread on it. The bread was not listed as being included in the salad. I advised the server who was apologetic and said he would notify the kitchen. When the salad was delivered again, at this point my dining companion was nearly done eating, the grilled chicken that I ordered was not on the salad. Again, I waited for the grilled chicken. When it arrived, my companion was finished with their meal. Overall, was not a pleasant dining experience.

This is such a cute shop! The gentleman serving us today was really friendly and welcoming. All the desserts looked amazing! The macarons were really good, and gluten-free! They also had a nice variety of chocolates, cake things, and a gelato counter. Great spot to satisfy a sweet tooth!
