Top 30 Gluten-Free Dinner Spots to Enjoy in Fort Myers

Ms. Jade Alexis

First time I’m downtown Ft. Myers and I ordered the gluten free cheese pizza and it did NOT disappoint! I imagined being gluten free it would taste mediocre boy was I wrong. If I could give 10stars I would. The waitress however was lackluster. She got my drink order wrong. I asked for Mezcal and she brought me a glass of Moscato. After the mixup she advised Mezcal is only served on certain days 🤔. I ordered an Old fashioned and it was garbage. I waited 40 minutes for my food and only saw her 3 times. Once to take my drink order, once to take my food order and then to bring the check. It was a Thursday night and the tables were pretty empty so it wasn’t due to the crowd. I still would go again for the amazing tasting pizza and stick with a glass of wine! 🍕

Would rate a 20/10 This restaurant had absolutely delicious food! We went 3 times while on our vacation because Salty Papas has the ABSOLUTE BEST customer service. I have never felt more safe as a celiac while dining. The staff were extremely knowledgeable and they go out of their way to make you feel safe about ordering fried foods. Amy and Stacy D were our servers and gave the BEST customer service. In today’s world customer service is few and far between but this place is DIALED IN!! I would recommended this to anyone—-food allergies or not! They make you feel like you’re at home!

Gluten free vegan options are even really great

Great food. Meatballs were so good. Not a big selection of Gluten Free. The atmosphere was perfect for 1 year anniversary. Wine selection amazing. Come early for their wine tasting.

Just like New York pizza! Plus, they have gluten-free pizza crust and gluten-free brownies 😋!!!

Our kids are picky eaters and they absolutely loved the pizza here. We got gluten free pizza bases with vegan cheese and it was all lovely! The kids were chatting with the staff who were great with them and very accommodating. We loved the food and service and will definitely return any time we are in the Fort Myers area!

I try to eat healthier and here I can enjoy pizza with no guilt. They even offer gluten free options .... other than salad. Really great pizza and sides.

Rachel Baker

Great experience, staff was great with working with us (and our two year old). Love that everything can be made gluten free!

Excellent experience here. I have Celiac disease and while they don’t have a designated gluten-free menu, they have gluten-free items marked on their regular menu. I had a cheeseburger on a gluten free bun with mashed potatoes and broccoli (wanted to avoid fries since they likely are in a shared fryer). It was a really good burger. My husband loved his burger too. Our kids were also happy with their meals. Very cool decor on the inside. There is limited street parking, but there is a parking ramp just around the block. Located in Downtown Fort Myers. Would love if they added gluten-free appetizers like a shrimp cocktail or something.

PF Chang's has some gluten free options that are tasty! Teelra, our waitress, was wonderful working with our special order and was very knowledgeable about allergens.

First time at the Fort Myers location. Great food and service. Kylie was so helpful explaining menu options, offered us tasting samples and made us feel so welcome accommodating me with gluten free options. We'll be back for sure!!! Linda & Brian B.

I agree with the other reviewers who felt this is one of the better Italian restaurants in the area. Had the House Favorite with Sausage which was excellent. I appreciate they offer Gluten Free pasta and pizza since that expands my options. Portions were big and prices very reasonable. Server checked on us often. Looking forward to going back.

Kimberly Maggert

Hidden gem, but worth the drive back by top golf. Kylie, Byan, and Kevin were very inviting and gave great service. The roast beef 3 way is a must try. THEY EVEN HAVE A GLUTEN FREE BUN!! Kids loved the mac and cheese bites and kids chicken tenders are big and juicy. Great value♡ quiet and clean. Soft serve Icecream was very a nice treat too!

The waitresses/waiters are always so nice! However we HARDLY EVER eat out due to gluten/dairy allergies. My oldest daughter wanted BJ’s for her birthday so we went. We stressed my twins allergies and made sure our waitress knew as soon as we ordered. She’s said she completely understood because her mom also had celiac. Her knowing the severity and us stressing I thought it would be ok. We ordered from the Gluten Free menu stressing that version no toppings. My 12 year old didn’t catch the butter that was on the salmon. Within 2 bites was instantly sick. These issues carry over and wreck her body for the entire day! Anyone who has celiac knows the danger! It was served to her at the normal recipe throwing her into a painful evening. I knew better than to eat out. We don’t for this exact reason but wanted to for our oldest. Next time we’ll pack her own food to make sure. I’m only leaving this review to help anyone who may be ordering specialty menu items. Allergies are NOT taken seriously. Inspect your food first! Cross contamination or food allergies may be ignored! It’s not worth the evening that follows! The rest of the food and service was wonderful! I didn’t say anything while we were there until after we paid. Our bill was over $200 we weren’t wanting anything off and understand accidents happen. As a mama who couldn’t help my child from the aftermath I felt I needed to warn others that may have allergies!

The food was fantastic. Possibly one of the best Caesar salads I've ever had. Our Ribeye and Prime Rib were cooked to perfection. The only thing that could have topped the food was the excellent service. Matthew was attentive, he made sure I had a gluten free menu when I informed him of my allergy, and he was patient whilst I was ordering and answered all my questions. Will be back 👌

Vivian Reeves

Awesome spot, delicious pizza. Will definitely order again! The gluten free was a bit pricey ($17 or $18 for a 10”, compared to the other normal pizzas), but hey what can you do. I loved their red pizza sauce, so delicious! Only thing better would be if they can do keto/ pizza bowls or crustless pizza, then I bet I’d order weekly, lol! Definitely blew my carb count today! Friendly people and great place to bring small kids to play while you enjoy a slice. Will certainly be getting take out from there again soon!

When the gluten-free pizza hit the table, I felt like I’d been sucker-punched by good intentions gone wrong. The crust wasn’t just bad—it was a culinary crime scene. Dull brown, spongy, and so undercooked it could’ve doubled as a prop in a zombie flick, it sat there under a blanket of melted cheese and toppings like a secret the kitchen was desperate to hide. If it weren’t for that cheese, stringy and forgiving, you’d swear this thing never saw the inside of an oven. I wanted to love it, I really did. But this crust? It’s the kind of thing that makes you question why you left the house.

Great place to eat pizza if you’re in a hurry!!! They serve it within 5-10 minutes and it’s delicious. You can customize it. Gluten free options. Great customer service and lots of space, indoor and outdoor.

I recently visited Shrimp Shack, and it was an absolutely lovely experience. The servers were prompt, accurate, and incredibly attentive, making sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive. I was super excited to see their extensive gluten-free selection, which made my ordering a breeze. I ordered the shrimp scampi with mashed potatoes, both were absolutely delicious. The outdoor seating area had a lovely, laid-back vibe, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a meal after a long day. Overall, a great dining experience with excellent service and fantastic food! I would 100% recommend this place to anyone with gluten sensitivities/allergies.

We are vacationing from Ft. Lauderdale and heard about this famous diner. It was incredible!. From the moment we walked in we were welcomed by the best hostess who was very happy to meet us. She introduced us to our server, Cody, who went above and beyond to making sure our first experience would be a memorable one. Their famous fish sandwich was perfect and Cody made sure I would have gluten free bread. Cody is outstanding and I was not surprised to hear customers return and request for his service. Will definitely return on our next visit. I wish I knew the blonde hostess’ name who made sure she said goodbye Fort Lauderdale as we were leaving. The friendliest people, service and delicious food A++!

We had the sweetest server tonight and the best slring sangria ever. Its always a pleasure! Mind you we are a couple where one is vegan and one is gluten free and we always eat so well here

Great place to go to eat at. Everything is just perfect about this restaurant, its food(which is more than likely gonna fill you up), its atmosphere, and its service(kudos Zachary), .If you have anybody that has lactose and gluten intolerants (like my son), they have pasta and probably more that you can eat.You just need to ask the waiter.Again ,this is just an over all awesome place to eat at. If you go there, you’ll definitely have a great time. “ buon cibo”

Great 12” gluten-free pizza! We loved the sauce!

Carol A Kemp

I checked reviews before leaving home & found this place. Everything down to Boba Milk Teas are made from scratch as to sugar free Option. We enjoyed gluten free Pad Thai & ordered a gluten free Italian sandwich for brunch tomorrow when we board Key West Ferry. Lenny at counter is amazing. Hard to tell if he is an owner or manager.

This place always delights. The menu is so immense and varied. It's like doing a food tour around the world. Even if you're not an adventurous eater, you will find something you like. The prices are super reasonable for the amount of food you get. The food is abundant and served hot and tasty. You will leave with leftovers. They are great at accommodating dietary restrictions like gluten, dairy, vegan, etc. Service was great and we didn't feel rushed. And try the desserts if you have room! You won't be disappointed!

Feeding the Hangry and the Heroic So there I was—lunchless, hungry, and dangerously close to turning into the kind of person who snaps at motivational work posters. Despite my well-documented aversion to unsolicited human interaction, I found myself at McGregor Pizza & Deli, where society and carbs collide in the best possible way. Why? Because my operating dojo was teeming with surgical tech ninjas—dedicated, scrappy, potentially hormonal, and suspiciously eager to stay after hours for more practice. Or hazing. Depends on the lighting and legal definitions. I needed to feed them before their inner beasts turned on me, so I ordered seven assorted pizzas. Seven. Because apparently I enjoy lifting pizza boxes with a back that served three tours when there was an actual war. Enter McGregor’s staff: fast, friendly, and blessedly unbothered by my general disdain for small talk. Not only did they whip up pizzas that could make a gluten-free monk reconsider their life choices, they also noticed my service-connected Marine Corps-certified spine and kindly carried the pies to my vehicle. Actual heroes in a world of people who still ask if I want to sign up for their rewards program, and I did. And the pizza? Hot, cheesy, meaty, and appropriately sacrificial—each slice laid down its life to tame the dojo beasts. Flavors? Bold. Crust? The right balance of crunch and chew. Sauce? A righteous splash of tangy salvation. Bottom line: McGregor Pizza & Deli is the unsung MVP of hunger emergencies and late-night practice sustenance. If you’re antisocial, hangry, heroic, or just in desperate need of seven pizzas and a little human decency—this is your spot. Five stars. Would return. Preferably with fewer ninjas next time. Full-grown adults get expensive!

Had gluten free fried rice and they have gluten free soy sauce. Very good sticky thai fried rice.
