My kids and I love this place. I've been missing some crispy fresh nuggets for a decade now. I've been gluten free since 2012. Frozen hasn't cut it and I'm not great at making breaded food. I love stopping here on a busy night. Always clean. Everyone is nice. Food is great. I never have to be the weirdo that asks if they have a dedicated fryer because it's clearly labeled and safe.

One of my favorite go to spots in Willow Glen. They offer gluten free pasta and pizza. And Wednesdays are half off bottles of wine! Great deal.

Stephanie Snow

My husband and I have been coming to this restaurant for the several years. We love the unique flavors and the delicious gluten free injera (teff bread) - we get the vegetarian combo plate. Had a nice chat with the owner tonight - he was friendly and obviously cares a lot about running a good restaurant. The place was packed but he and one other server attended to customers efficiently and our dinner tasted great as always!

Sam Boland

Staff was extremely knowledgeable about celiac disease, felt very safe eating here. Great food too!

Paula Kirkland

Soooooo good! I do ladies brunch there often (churros, bunuelos, basically any breakfast item is amazing) and we did dinner/happy hour and everything was mouth watering! Gluten free options too! Almost everything is gluten free!

Lydia Goorman

Best gluten free pizza crust I’ve had in a long time! Absolutely delicious kale salad and Margherita pizza. Their lemonade was also fresh squeezed, too! The blackberry thyme one was great.

Jeff Evey

I live Crepevine, I’ve gotten the gluten free Philly crepe for years and I don’t even want to try anything else, although I have and other stuff is good too.

Cory Wilson

Really tasty and Gluten free! I loved the variety of sides and the beef and sauces were amazing!

Kat

Got pick up and have gluten allergies and very happy they have a separate fryer and GF tortilla and had a shredded chicken chimichanga for the 1st time in years since being diagnosed. My son had a chicken plate and he loved it. Will be back again!! Delicious!!!

Ryan McDonald

This is a great spot with great food! I came here because I have a gluten allergy. They are very accommodating and have a dedicated frier and space in the kitchen for those with gluten allergies.

Vishal Surana

One of the best in the bay area for Vegan and Gluten Free options. Food was reasonable priced. Desserts were great, may be touch pricy still great

Victoria Partida

I went for a company lunch. They had penne gluten free pasta which was great! It tasted super good and our server was great too.

Dominic Butaitis

In n Out never disappoints. They always make a great burger, that is gluten free.

Sherie Hatton

Please get them some help!! We had to go in dining room to find a waiter to get us seated—no one at front! Waiter was very knowledgeable about gluten free menu but clearly overwhelmed trying to cover multiple jobs! Restroom had trash spilling over can and badly needed attention but the poor wait staff could barely keep up with dining room! Not their fault!! Management needs to get them some help!

Love this place, also great for Celiac family member with lots of good options for gluten free

Annora Borden and Ben Mandler

Best Ethiopian food we’ve had in the Bay Area. 100% teff injera only (and damn good too, not at all brittle or thin like it can be some places), so good for the gluten free among us.

Debbie Bernhardt

Gluten free food sold here

Vicolas

Delicious gluten free food!!! The pick-up was neat!

Hedieh YS

Friendly service, overall good experience, though nothing was outstanding. Vegetarian choices were very limited. The drinks were flavorful but not very strong. The pasta dish was very tasty, made with gluten-free pasta. The duck was just ok.

April Giesbrecht

I love their food! Always so helpful and kind with my gluten allergy.Thanks a lot.

Gremnir Graham

Bella and Gabby take excellent care of me as a regular at Urban Plates Santana Row. I highly recommend their grilled chicken sandwich from the 12 under 12 menu and a gluten free chocolate cookie

Barbara Lopez

My newest favorite restuarant. Only have done takeout. Want to dine in soon. Pleasant staff. Food is outstanding. Chicken lettuce cups, fiery vegatables, basil chicken, fried gluten free calamari, fish soup, coconut rice. Everything we have ordered has been very good to outstanding. Can't recommend this place enough. Good glutten free options for my GF.

Melissa McGee

Gluten free classic Mac & cheese and Gluten free chicken pesto Mac, absolutely fabulous! It’s at the end of the terminal but very worth it!!! Bar with great service!

Daniel Martin

Friendly, helpful staff. Hearty food. When I told them I had Celiacs they changed their gloves and knives, wiped down the counter, and made mage the most delicious gluten free Reuben sandwich!!

Racheal Dias

Nice laid back spot for brunch (up to 2pm), lunch (up to 4pm) and dinner! Lots of variety in their menu and quite reasonably priced. We took Monterey Omelette and Meatloaf! They have a nice bar, and many fancy cocktails in their menu. It’s in the same parking lot of the Westgate Center. Took us 10 mins to be seated. Good service and will definitely visit again. Highlight - They offered Gluten free toast along with the Omelette!

Katarina C.

We’ve ordered here at least 5 times. I liked the food and especially because the meat is gluten-free! The burnt ends are a favorite. The meat is good, but it really needs some kind of sauce with it, they offer many kinds. This place was kind of run down feeling and I think it could use a few updates at this point. Nice new parking lot made it easy to stop by

I highly recommend the food and service from Pizza My Heart on Blossom Hill Road in San Jose. The food was delicious and the service was above and beyond. I do not, however, recommend using the on-line order form. The online order form is controlled by a third-party called ezCater. EzCater company sent our large order for a party to a location that was NOT the closest to our event. When we went in the restaurant to ask a couple of minor questions, we discovered that they didn’t have a record of our order. It was because ezCater sent the order to the wrong restaurant. When I asked ezCater to redirect the order to the restaurant that was close to our event, they did so but they left out the gluten free pizzas. The manager at Pizza My Heart Blossom Hill worked hard to make it right and expedited the gluten free pizzas. We felt he went above and beyond. I will absolutely order from Pizza My Heart again, but I’ll never use the ezCater online order form again. By the way nobody at the party even noticed that the gluten free pizzas were delivered later than the rest of the food. The food was really good, the salads were fantastic, as was the pizza and chicken wings and bread sticks. Way to go Pizza My Heart for making it right so quickly.

First time, asked if they had gluten free granola, they advised they do. When I received bowl it has cereal on it, a mix of rice krispies and Corn puffs...it may be gluten free but not its not granola. The base of bliss bowl was good but removed much of it due to cereal in bowl. Never come across this before.

Wow-Gojo Ethiopian Delivers-the best!!.. I had/needed Vegan (and gluten free) food and was recommended the Combo Injeera and picked, cooked, and pickled lil’ dishes assortment. The server Moumoud (pardon, close?!!) was a pleasant experience himself in providing the choices and being a beacon of gentle, prompt, attentive, and kindly, jovial service. I felt like I was being served by family-in his mentioning of his cherished veggie dishes for me-that were… simply AMAZING..and were light, sweet, slightly spicy, and cooling as well. And…the injeeera here-may be the best injeera in NorCal-serious. Lightest, and most firm-absolutely teff-and delicious w/all the assortment! You can also tell of the humble pride of Ethiopia here-in the decor, both western and Ethiopian. I imagine they have both lots of Ethiopians and westerners in groups on a solid dining evening! I didn’t try the meat dishes-they looked delectable-aside of my preference-in that they were very special dishes-go to this place w/a few friends or family who is daring or likes Ethiopian-it’s an awesome group experience in a place like this-in sharing!! You’ll love the variety of your friend’s, neighbor’s, or mom in law! If you are in San Jose or on your way to/from Santa Cruz-definitely stop by for a small bite or a solid meal! What an early dinner/afternoon delight! And if you see Moumoud-you’ll know-because he has a glowing smile for his food! Ask him about a recommendation for you!!

High quality sandwich shop. The breads we tried were a very nice texture, even the sourdough and gluten free, which could be chewy, were instead perfect. My family all enjoyed what they ordered and we'll definitely be back soon. I know people think it's cute, but I don't care for the complicated sandwich names. It does not make it easier with large orders. Perhaps it's the changes in some names too, adding to the confusion. I'm hoping for more places to offer options to order online, but pay with cash at pickup. I'm fine with a CC being on file for the orders.

Small selection of gluten free items but they are very tasty. Comfortable easy atmosphere. Great service.

I know it’s sacrilegious to order gluten free pizza but I did and it was amazing. But that’s not really why I’m writing a review. My wife called the order in and I went to pick it up. I had my 3 year old in the car with me and any parent can tell you how much it sucks to have to get them out of the car and put back in their seat after a super quick errand like picking up a to-go order. So I called Bibo’s on my way there and asked if they wouldn’t mind brining the order out to my car when I got there. They were super nice and when I pulled up they came out with the pizzas. It might seem like a small thing, but when a small business is staffed by great people, it really makes a difference. Can’t recommend these guys enough. And again, the cauliflower crust pizza was incredible.

McNibbler

The go-to spot for Ethiopian for my wife and I. Food is insanely tasty and filling, and the service is always friendly, informative, and flexible. The location isn't glamorous, but the restaurant itself is nice on the inside and the experience is hard to beat. Great food for both meat eaters and vegetarians alike. One thing we love is that they offer 100% teff-flour injeras, which are perfect for my wife with Celiac, or anyone else who eats gluten free. I can't guarantee they don't cross-contaminate, but my wife never reported any problems.

Fantastic! Such a great experience. The gin and tonic was wonderful and not at all a standard g&t. The lobster with kimchi mayo was wonderful. Just a hint of spice to compliment the sweetness of the lobster. The tomato sauce with beef tounge was great. Such a fantastic texture. And the sauce was wonderful. Lots of gluten free options. The grilled veggies were flavorful, sand a great side to the meats.

Fancy and amazing food, gorgeous, romantic, but very expensive. GLUTEN -FREE PASTA! A great place to take a date. Especially since it was attached to a hotel. Parking issues though.

Elizabeth Bernhardt

Incredible gluten free pizza!! I got the “City” toppings (minus olives). My husband and son got regular crust pizza and they were “filling” with “fresh ingredients” and “savory.” Choices of both thin and traditional New York thick crust. Atmosphere: We used to live in NYC and this took me right back there, in the middle of California. It felt so authentic I almost got teary eyed.

Emilio Jiménez

Save yourself a visit to the ER, and go to a different location! I ordered a gluten free sandwich with no cheese, and explicitly told them of my allergies. But when I received my meal it had everything I asked to be substituted! I tried to call to ask the staff how many things they forgot to remove but they would answer the phone after two rings and hang up purposely so I would stop calling. This is dangerous! I didn't know which of my medicine to take since they refused to tell me what allergens they had exposed me to!

Vanessa Figone

If you are gluten free, vegan, or dairy free, they have a menu for designed for each, just ask. Obviously, swirls are delicious and strong. Been coming here for years. Only 1 time my hubby got food poisoning from a chicken burrito. The chicken actually tasted bad. But after a year hiatus we came back. We missed the food too much and decided to try again. We have had no issues, only the one time. Favorites are the taquitos, flautas, and Thai chicken burrito.

Donald Clark

Always good food at affordable prices. This one is well placed for San Jose suburbs and generally clean and staffed with humans / close to humans! You can get good Gluten Free options here - just ask for the bowl. All other ingredients are safe. You can also ask the server to change gloves in case they have been handling flour tortillas recently. App works well for pickup.

It's wonderful to find a sushi place that has designated gluten free sushi. Will be coming back for sure. We ordered via door dash and had it delivered to our hotel. We were impressed with the flavor and unique gluten free options. Unfortunately we were not given any gluten free soy sauce with our order so we had to eat the sushi plain. That wasn't our expectation or intention so can't say that was enjoyable for the high price of the food. Had they given GF soy sauce, it would be a 5 star review, for sure!

Jonathan Varela

This was our first time here, and we really liked it. My wife has a gluten-free diet, and she enjoyed her hamburger!!

Went to pick up an order with Well Bowlls, discovered this efficient ghost kitchen with 26 eateries under its belt. Lots of parking. You reach there (order 15 minutes before), enter your name and pop opens a cupboard with your take away. Diverse options (Keto, Gluten free, Vegan, Indian, etc) include Ben’s Fast Food, Moonbowls, Idly Express, Umami Express, F#ck Carbs, F#ck Gluten, Ketiza, Once Upon a Dosa and more. Best for take away, though they have 2-3 tables outside. Now I have 26 reasons to visit it again.

Brynn Schor

Delicious food, incredible service. We were warmly greeted and our food came quickly. I had the veggie combo which was fantastic and my partner had lamb timbs. The injera was perfect (and gluten free!) And we had plenty to finish our meal. Portions were large- I even had leftovers to take home- and prices were very reasonable. It's a small place and a few people were gathered to watch the soccer game. Made it feel like a neighborhood place. We'll be going back!

Eddie Conley

Great tasting pizza with good gluten free crust

Jim Wynia
