Top 25 Gluten-Free Dinner Spots to Delight in Sterling

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!

Fairly decent selection of gluten-free dishes, including desserts. The fish plate was cooked perfectly and the staff was extremely professional. It's a moderately fancy/casual establishment, which leaves the menu a little pricey but is nonetheless absolutely worth the cost.

Cafesano serves up Mediterranean and Italian food and has options for vegetarian and gluten free food options. This is more of a fast food style place where you order, grab any available table and the food will be brought to your table by the server. Not knowing the place was this style, I had called them couple times in attempt to make reservations but no one called back at all - would have been great customer service to call back and inform no reservations was needed. The place looked good and food was fine. I got the falafel wrap with side salad, which was ok. My friends had a gluten free wrap, and a pasta dish and bruschetta.

We had a great cheese Neapolitan pizza! There are so many toppings available. Chicken wings with mumbo sauce as an appetizer! The best part is Dogs are allowed on the patio! They even have a doggie menu! They are new owners and not connected with Fireworks pizza. They have replaced the ovens and have vegan/gluten free options. They have a kids menu and have happy hour specials. The new owner is Alex and checks to make sure the customers are happy!

This might actually be the worst pizza I've ever had. The dough was severely undercooked and made for a soft, floppy, disgusting pizza. The "Tre Formaggio" in particular was so unbelievable doughy that one of my co-workers actually gagged when it turned into a cheesy, gluten ball of chewing gum in his mouth. But the "Marco" was pretty bad too. Two doughy, undercooked pizzas aren't a mistake; It's a failure. Making pizza like this in America is frankly borderline treasonous. What's going on here Emilio? Is your "brick oven" unable to get above 150°F? And the sauce and toppings. Fresh? Yeah, I believe so. It tasted okay and I liked the options and combinations you offer. But are you allergic to putting the toppings on the pizza? Or do you think a tablespoon of cheese is enough to cover a whole large pizza? When you make pizza that has crust the size of your forearm, maybe it's time to re-examine your business strategy and go into something else, like stand-up comedy so you can tell your jokes using words instead of food. You also made zero attempt to cut the pizza in any kind of reasonable way, leaving some slices pencil thin, and others a full quarter of the pizza. Do I have to break out the Pythagorean theorem to share this pie with my co-workers? But that wouldn't really be much of an issue if the pizza was cut at all. It seems like they were content with lazily rolling a dull knife over our pie to draw a couple lines. It's totally possible that Emilio likes to do right by the community and only hire blind artists that weigh 70lbs to cut the pizzas, but I think it's far more likely that they don't care. I'd even like to give you more leeway on the price, but $25 per pie?! For these pies?! Honestly, I feel robbed. I'd rather eat a week-old pizza from Pizza Hut off of one of their toilet seats than ever go near your restaurant again. I'd probably save some money too. Buyer beware: there's a crook in town that say's they're selling pizza, but in reality, they peddle room-temperature Frisbees made of soft garbage. Their food causes suffering and regret, and their name is Emilio.

We ordered several dishes. For starters we had veggie samosa and paneer pakora. The samosa was excellent but didn’t really like the paneer pakora — it lacked taste, too much batter and the consistency of the paneer was too soft. The main dishes were excellent: Punjabi Kadi Pakora and Malabar Fish Curry; both were flavorful with the perfect spice level. Portion sizes are very generous. The service is excellent—including the owner who is very friendly and accommodated my modifications as a gluten free vegetarian. He even went out of his way to make a chick pea based roti which was outstanding. Highly recommend Mehfil for the food and service!
