Early dinner on a weekday. Restaurant was largely empty but began to fill up after we finished our meal. Really nice seating and bar area. Hostess was friendly and helpful. Service was very good and she was able to provide a lot of information regarding the gluten free menu items. The gluten free menu is pretty extensive which was great! Had the cheese steak spring rolls which were absolutely delicious! Crab cake and fish sandwich were enjoyable. Dessert was upside down pineapple cake which we really liked as well. Drinks were also made well - we had the espresso martini which we would definitely order again! The only issue we encountered was the bathroom soap dispenser was broken so we couldn't wash our hands. That was a little frustrating but they helped resolve the situation. I would definitely return again to try more menu items!

Great food, friendly service, and 100% gluten free. We need more places like this!

Delfi Bourse Martinez

Amazing restaurant with a different menu for gluten free, they are super careful with any type of allergies. the food is delicious I 100% recommend it

Amethyst Smith

They were stellar from the moment we walked in. They had my mind at ease immediately assuring me they don’t even bring gluten into the building. The food was amazing it felt like a 5 star dining experience. The whole menu being gluten free and without worries of cross contamination it was a fantastic experience with food and service. I will be returning for all of my events worth celebrating. Not to mention a full side menu of mocktails 😊

Noah Steege

Not Celiac safe. Went there for lunch yesterday and my wife got glutened by cross contamination.

Maria Bliznetsova

One of my absolute favourite to go places for breakfast/lunch! I tried almost everything on the menu and quality of food is excellent! Everyone can find something, they have vegan and gluten free options too. But for me, Huevos Rancheros, Summer Cod, Cobb Salad and peach pie are top choices! New location in Arlington also has a big garage parking and easy access as well.

We left about ten minutes ago. Eric was our server and I can’t put into words how phenomenal his service was. He knew the ins and outs of the main and gluten free menu and he checked on us often but not too much. Eric’s demeanor was kind and welcoming and service is exactly what we all imagine when we say “They don’t make them like this anymore.” Excellent experience.

Scott Coker

Excellent food and a lot of Gluten free options.

Kari Jackson

Always looked like a fun place when I drove by and finally went a few weeks ago with friends for dinner. It was amazing. Our waitress, Brenda, was incredibly kind and helpful. She talked us through the menu and made great recommendations. We all ended up getting the grilled arepa llanera- a delicious combo of avocado, steak and cheese with a sauce. We also tried different sides- I had the tequenos which were sooo good. For beverages - they had a great happy hour and we got $7 blackberry sangria that was a perfect addition. I think we all enjoyed it. But I will say our overall favorite was their green garlic sauce. They need to bottle it- its that good! Also- almost EVERYTHING was gluten free! Overall it was a great experience. Will definitely go again!

Lindsay Walter

A gluten-free paradise! 99% of their offerings are gluten free and they take everything very seriously. On top of that, the food is DELICIOUS, even my non-gf friends were impressed.

Strange Hood

Great authentic Korean food. And it’s gluten free🤍. The place is super clean and there’s great customer service. Will definitely visit this place again. Thank you Rossy and team.

Steven Wacker

Ynot pizza has our go-to place for years. They take great care in preparing Gluten Free food. We feel safe with their food handling practices.

Danyale Kellogg

The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about celiac disease. We enjoyed the food and had lots of great leftovers.

Tara Ward

I'm in love with this place! As a Celiac, it's SO nice to find excellent food that caters strictly for us and that it's nearby.

Elaine Gawronska

Had to wait a few minutes to get seated as they were busy. Obviously popular so that's good. Lots of gluten free and vegan options which were clearly marked on the menu and much appreciated. The food was delicious and the staff helpful and friendly.

A Lawson

Had an amazing experience last night for our anniversary! I’m newly gluten sensitive and there was so much on this menu I could enjoy and everything was delicious! Waitress was kind and helpful! Drinks were delicious and I will forever be dreaming about the chicken tirokroketes!

K. Ry (K-Ry)

As always, my gluten free vegan pizza was fantastic!!

stella evans

Their gluten free chicken was excellent. The service was outstanding. John Paul went above and beyond to take care of us. We will definitely be back.

lindsey packard

The food was really really good, I got the fried chicken, the crab cakes and we got the chocolate cake. They were all gluten free and delicious. The building though was so old, and it smelled awful, was very dusty and was a bit hard to breath because it was so musky. I’ve been to some restaurants that were in older buildings and none of them have been like that. Then our service was really bad also. So food-5 stars, atmosphere-1 star service-1 star. There is outdoor seating so maybe it’s worth it to sit outside and eat in the fresh air. They had a ton of gluten free options though.

L Miller

Lots of healthy options. I tried their sausage biscuit and Cyprus side salad. The biscuit was good but the salad was stellar! So fresh and delicious. The dressing so light and flavorful. They had lots of gluten free and vegan options. Enjoyed the inside, very warm and inviting.

Sara Kelly

My gluten free family was so happy to find a new gluten free bakery in our travels. Delicious treats (especially the pepperoni rolls) and great prices. We have found our new spot to visit every time we are in the area. 😋 Hopefully next time we can dine in and enjoy the awesome ambience of the restaurant.

Came here on Valentine’s Day. My server Lexi made sure my meals would be shellfish and gluten free. Also love how many gluten free options there are too. I had the devils pass dip which was so flavorful and had the cheeseburger which was good too. Also tried the chocolate decadence which is gluten free too, very rich chocolate flavor

It was my first time visiting cheesetique. I just moved to the neighborhood so I wanted to check it out. For reference this Restaurant has gluten free options but they forgot and served me gluten free bread! I have an autoimmune disease that is sensitive to gluten so hence why I am gluten free. My husband and I ordered gluten free appetizers and he got the pasta. Then my sandwich came and I didnt know if it was GF. The bread looked gf but it tasted different than gf. I began to eat it when the waitress came by 10 mins later to check on us I asked her to confirm if it was GF and she looked at me saying whoops, "no, so sorry." I trusted her given our long convo about gluten free about all our other items. I don't know if she forgot or the chef and kitchen didnt read the notes but we were clear I was GF. The manager came by apologized told us he took off my sandwich but we shared with him if it was more severe someone could have died or gotten more sick... which can be a lawsuit. I told him he should have comped us for the entire meal. It was unacceptable. He then promptly said dont worry about paying. We left a tip for our waitress still but we are very disappointed about our experience and the mistake. This experience occurred on Aug 2nd and 7pm. We left the restaurant with our food items to go at around 8:30pm.

Our waitress was Frances. She was very charismatic and very knowledgeable about gluten free foods. My wife has celiac disease and this her greatest concern when it comes to trying a new food location. It was an amazing experience!

Taylor

Good pasta and gluten free options… the fact that I couldn’t get a Mocktail or alcohol free wine here in 2025 sucked…. Add mocktails asap please!

Victor Bieniek

I especially appreciate that they offer gluten free options of many classic Chinese dishes. This is my go-to restaurant for Chinese.

Michelle Marcet

BEST options for gluten free and dairy free. Sam the sever was very respectful of my allergies and it was truly appreciated.

Richard Durkin

High ceilings and Southwest decor make Sweetwater Tavern a compelling restaurant. Great sandwiches and sides served by an attentive team of wait staff. They have their own beer on tap. The owners understand the needs of customers who have Celiac disease and offer gluten-free menu without being asked. Worth experiencing!

sharon wolfe

Had a fish meal with pomegranate and Quinoa on the Gluten free menu and it was amazing!

Melinda v

I love the food here. It is so flavorful and the portions are nice sized. They are as kids friendly as they can be with the older adult atmosphere. I recommend the burgers. The wine selection is fantastic! They have a great gluten feee menu.

Sanskriti Kant

This cafe is located in Reston near the lake having beautiful view. The ambience is pretty Greek and happy. You can order food from there and enjoy either inside or outside with the beautiful lake view. The pizza was brick oven cooked and was so tasty. They used fresh mozzarella. They have vegan and gluten friendly options too. The staff it’s so friendly. We also had panini that came with chips and pickled cucumber. Its was also nice. They have spicy sauce ketchup and other seasoning too you can use

Joshua Seagrave

Our waiter was incredibly friendly and went out of his way to accommodate my wife's dietary restrictions due to celiac disease. He provided a gluten-free menu and ensured that the kitchen was aware of her needs. He made excellent wine recommendations and checked in on us throughout the meal to ensure we were enjoying our experience. As for the food, we were blown away by how delicious and beautifully presented each dish was. The shishito peppers were perfectly cooked and had just the right amount of salt to complement their savory flavor. The calamari was tender and flavorful. The mussels were plump and juicy, and the broth was rich and flavorful. The scallop ceviche was a standout dish, with fresh, bright flavors and delicate textures. For dessert, we couldn't resist trying the creme de catalan, which was a perfect ending to the meal. We paired it with a scoop of almond and floral ice cream, which was rich and creamy, and a glass of sherry that added a lovely depth of flavor. Despite the restaurant being a bit noisy, it didn't detract from our overall enjoyment of the meal. The restaurant's cozy and intimate atmosphere made for a memorable dining experience, and we look forward to returning. Highly recommend!

My wife and I visited this restaurant for lunch when we arrived in Smithfield, VA. On their menu, there were multiple instances of gluten free options. After we were seated, we told the waitress about my wife being celiac. She immediately told us that, despite having gluten free options, they cannot guarantee there won't any cross-contamination as their kitchen is *not* properly equipped. This was indeed very disappointing. To play it safe, my wife ordered the Greek Salad. However, the salad was dressed with iceberg lettuce instead of the spring mix as advertised. The Club Deluxe and soup that I ordered were delicious. My proposal to management is to *explicitly* state on their menu that cross-contamination is a possibility. We certainly appreciated that the waitress mentioned this to us before we ordered. Of course, adapting their kitchen to provide a gluten free environment would be a preferred option.

Spicee Poet

I was really excited to try this spot and was a little disappointed. Great and extensive menu with gluten-free, vegan, and healthy options. I ordered the pancake combo, and my pancakes were undercooked. They were perfectly brown on the outside, but the inside wasn't cooked through enough. My server was friendly and the restaurants decor matches it's name.

Joe Brognano

Good gluten free pizza

David Dotson

Wonderful vegan & gluten free options Very reasonably priced for tons of delicious food This location had lots of dine-in seating

Albert Chan

Nathaniel Lucas

Best Thai around without a doubt. Always great food and service. If you have any allergies they are very good with adapting the dishes to accommodate. Wife is gluten free and they always get it right. Will continue to come back. Recommend: Pad Thai Gai, LEMONGRASS SOUP-incredible especially when sick.

Elenwin L

They have Gluten Free fried chicken and also GF Fish & Chips. What more can I say? Yum!

Tim Beaver

We were in Williamsburg on vacation and decided to try Antonio’s based on reviews on Find Me Gluen Free. Our two daughters (12 & 14) have Celiac disease. Our older daughter had the GF ravioli and our younger daughter had GF penne with red sauce. We all shared GF calamari as an appetizer and the girls split GF chocolate cake. I had the veal Saltimbocca and my wife had the linguine and clams. The garlic knots were also delicious, but only my wife and I were able to have them. We would highly recommend Antonio’s, especially if you are looking for a GF Italian restaurant.

Kendal Davis

It is hard to put into words how much I love and respect this place. Everything I've had from here is amazing. The first time I popped in was over a year ago- I legit was almost in tears eating a cinnamon roll. And The chicken pie :,) to die for. Even iced coffee is somehow taken to another level- and it was VEGAN! I would have never guessed any of the items I had here were gluten free OR dairy free if I had not known its a dedicated Gluten Free, Dairy Free, & Wheat free kitchen. This place deserves more recognition. I even am able to try new things that I hadn't had even in my years before I was unable to eat gluten- like today I had a sample of minced fruit pie! its like your regular fruit pie on steroids- way more flavor. I love it!!! (Obviously I bought one lol) and also tried the Veggie pizza and Pepperoni pizzas today and they blew my socks off. Ambiance is great- calm french music, place smells amazing when you walk in. Greeted by friendly and knowledgable staff. Keep doin yo thang, guys! Thank you!!!

Elyssa

Favorite lunch spot for bbq. Great gluten free menu and service has always been good.

Jason Miller

They offer delicious Celiac options and take care to avoid cross contamination. Thank you for a great experience!

Laurie Collins

Everything was amazing from start to finish! They have incredible gluten free options and easily accommodated my soy allergy as well. Our server was kind and knowledgeable. He knew a lot about the area.

I am a practicing gastroenterology physician in Richmond. I took my family to this restaurant, explained to the server three times that I have a gluten allergy and placed an order for a gluten free pizza The server appears to have acknowledged and recognized this and reported that she has family members who have a gluten allergy as well. Despite this, she incorrectly placed the order for a pizza for me with a gluten containing crust. Only after I had consumed as substantial amount of this item, did she then return and informed my family members that this was a gluten containing pizza. I asked to speak with the manager. While waiting to speak with the manager, another patron at the restaurant who had overheard the discussion reported to me that a similar situation had happened with him. I explained this to the manager who was completely unfazed. After a brief back-and-forth discussion with the manager, I noted to her that the servers attention to detail was negligent. I asked to speak with the owner. I received no call from the owner. I’m giving this place one out of five stars mainly on the basis of what appears to have been an inadequate response to a negligent server

Ariane Volk

Delicious Thai street food & all the classics. Also high end cocktails. Highly recommend! Excellent gluten free options, as well as vegetarian options, and clearly marked.
