Go see Amanda!!!!! She was our server in the bar!!!! Amanda was attentive and detailed and laughed with us even though she was busy. We had the best birthday celebration ever. I never eat desert ever. Amanda recommended this berry crumble with ice cream gluten free! We gobbled it up! Best desert ever. I had no idea Wildfire even had such a thing! Thanks Amanda! You are a gift to those who meet you!!!! Naturally we were there for the killer chicken chopped salads!!!

Yard House in The Glens is a fantastic spot! The location is convenient, and the menu truly stands out with its wide variety of options, including gluten-free and meatless choices—there’s something for everyone. Despite being consistently busy, the service remains top-notch, which is impressive. The food is always delicious, and the atmosphere is perfect for gathering with good company. I highly recommend trying the poke nachos and mini sliders—they’re standout dishes! To top it all off, the happy hour deals are unbeatable. Yard House is definitely a go-to destination for great food, excellent service, and a lively vibe. #yardhousetheglens #yardhouseglenview #yardhouse #theglens #theglenfood #pokenachos #minisliders #glutenfreeoptions #glenviewillinois #movingtosouthflorida #southflorida #movingtosoflo #bocaratonrealestate #soflorealestate #exprealty #gracebucholtz #gracebucholtzexprealty

The strawberry Belgian waffle will always be a favorite here. The apple pancake and Dutch baby are also traditional favorites at certain times of year. The food bloggers and critics out East can only aspire to these recipes. Gluten free options are solid and safe.

This place was wonderful! Food is fantastic, atmosphere is classy, everything is reasonably priced. Our server Michelle was kind, attentive, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about all the items on the menu. THEY HAVE GLUTEN FREE (almost) EVERYTHING! Even their tempura batter is gluten free. And you can’t tell in the flavor because everything is delicious. Their patio is dog friendly and the staff even brought out two bowls of water for them. A wonderful first experience and this will become a regular spot!

I was in chicago for work and decided to grab breakfast before my flight. I stopped by was immediately greeted and taken to a seat. The place looked very busy, we got the pleasure of being served by Laura. She was diligent in taking our order with modifications and ensured that me being celiac that would do their best to help me enjoy the environment. She made recommendations of what to have and made sure we were happy in our visit. I will definitely come back my next time to Chicago!

I wish I had the option to give more than 5 🌟, because this place deserves it. From the quality of foods, to the attention to detail for the service and products, this place is top notch for those that care about ingredients (everyone should) and allergens. I've stopped here during a flight delay and came back next time I had the chance. Can't go wrong with any of the smoothies or bowls. I added spinach to my berries smoothie. I also had the banana bread waffles (gluten free and dairy free) with strawberry, chocolate and honey drizzle. Yum! They have a meal prep service for those that need that and will have some meals on hand to grab. We also got a few containers of the lemon-cashew-maple syrup-coconut balls and they were a hit at the football party. The subtle lemon flavor is refreshing.

My family & I (husband, 13 & 9 yo) LOVE this place! The food is DELICIOUS & the owners are VERY accommodating to gluten & dairy free. I am currently healing my gut and have such a restricted diet and they were very kind and accommodated my needs. This is a great restaurant with nutritious food. We LOVE Riobamba!

Steve Zivalich

service was friendly. food was good. Menu selection is not overwhelming, but seems to have something for most. there are gluten free, vegan options. we had the pub burger, cooked well, fries, crispy. the pork chop dinner was excellent, tender, juicy. the sides added great flavor and went very well. A good place to eat, relaxing.

This place is really nice, the whole menu is vegan, a lot of gluten free and soy free options, and the food is just wonderful!

Went on a Sunday night to celebrate my wife's birthday. Lucky we had reservations because the wait was 90 minutes. As soon as you walk in you feel the California vibe in this upscale Mediterranean restaurant. The interior decor is absolutely beautiful. We were seated immediately and greeted by our server Nathan. He was very informative and helpful since my wife is Gluten free. The nice thing is just about everything is gluten free. They have an extensive wine list and a few specialty craft cocktails but a few of them are pricey. Limited beer selection but they do have some creative Mocktails. We started with the Hummus with Lamb Ragu. It comes with a basket of warm homemade pitas and they brought out homemade chickpea crackers for my wife. It was amazing. Since this is mainly a small plate dining experience,we tried the Sweet Potato Latkes,Chicken Kefta and Spicey Brisket Kefta. Each plate came with a flavorful dipping sauce along with red cabbage,grilled sweet onions and lemon dill rice. Everything was amazing but we did bring food home as the portions were large . For dessert they brought my wife a complimentary Birthday Frozen Yogurt which was a nice sweet ending to a fabulous dinner. Plenty of parking but you do need a reservation if you don't want to wait. We will definitely be back!

Random find to stumble on. Good gluten free options.

Delicious veggie and gluten free options here--We did the plated meals. Love their authentic Armenian-Mediterranean style food, it was all made to order and the hummus is divine! The outdoor patio is a must.

Loads of vegetarian options, a gluten free menu, and the best friend rice we’ve found in Chicagoland. It isn’t heavy and greasy like most. They are careful when we clarify our order is gluten free due to allergen and will check with the cook to make sure food is kept safely gf. This is everything since cross contamination is just as bad as food with gluten where dangerous reaction is concerned. We feel taken care of and confident ordering here and are very grateful for their attention to allergen safety. The sushi is a bit heavy (“wet” rice), but still okay, if not their forte. I recommend all of the fried rice dishes, love their pad-see-ewe cuz it’s loaded with Chinese broccoli and they cook their tofu well, AND the noodles are cooked beautifully. Never gloppy.:) Other gf/veg dishes are good, but the fried rice and wide noodles are the go-to dishes we usually pick.

Love this place!! Come here all the time and had the most amazing food. Their noodles and pasta are from all around the world and have all different flavors. You can also mix and match what you want, or create your own. They also have sides options and appetizers for if you're really hungry, or you are not hungry at all. The workers there are really nice and helpful, and they take very little time to make their noodles. The only thing that annoys me is that their portions are very small. Even though they are small, though, the portions are still pretty filling. I also forgot to mention that at Noodles and Company they sell a healthier option of noodles, if you're going on a diet or just want to eat healthy, called zoodles. It is zucchini swirled into swirls that look like noodles. They also offer gluten free noodles. I love Noodles and Company and you should go try it if you haven't already!

I went for a group event in their party room. Emily, our server was great and she kept up with this large group really well. The food was tasty but the gluten free pizza was a bit bland and floopy

Marla Martin

I am a Chicago native now living in Colorado. While visiting, I needed to find a place that offered both deep dish pizza for my husband and gluten free pizza for me. This was a great choice. My husband was able to order deep dish by the slice and said it was delicious. My GF pizza was yummy with sausage and onion. I don't know what makes Chicago onions on pizza unique, but they just aren't the same anywhere else. The price was reasonable, and the tables outside in the shade were lovely.

Erin Reed

if you are gluten or dairy free everything is meh, not much for selection. steak was way over done for a medium. it came out past well done. but if you want their onion rings or thier burger my family thought they were good, but nothing to rave about

I really enjoy this chain because they have Gluten Free bread but also, the ingredients are really fresh! I've tried other Jersey Mike's in the northeast suburbs and to be honest, their meats, cheese, breads, etc. do not taste as good. I went to one in Milwaukee, WI and they were actually serving spent lettuce (wilted, brown) so it just all depends. With this Illinois Willow Rd. location, the owners take great pride in their store and treat the customers very well ~ no long waits, always super fresh ingredients (turkey, tuna, etc.), and the people stack everything high. The tables and chairs are cleaned thoroughly and they take pride in having a first class place for people to come in. I have been very happy with this group because they are very nice to customers. They're also trained well for gluten-free customers, and clean the work areas very consciously. But if you are tired of places that serve old ingredients, don't keep their places clean, are not kind to their customers ~ this place isn't it. It's the best place in the northern IL suburbs. Don't waste your time going any place else. I go here literally 2-3 times per month. Note: as of 6/11/2024, this comment has received 1,000 Likes! Every time I go over there, they have a nice steady stream of customers. Even the local police go there. The latest demand? They are telling me 'cheese steaks'. They also have daily specials that will save you $$. Try tuna fish salad on Fridays.

I love Greenwood Grill, and either dine-in or carry-out at least twice a week. The best chicken tinga tacos ANYWHERE. The cheese & potato flautas are fabulous! Fantastic homemade soups - so hearty a cup will fill you up. I'm gluten-free (allergy) and have never had a problem with the corn tortillas (tacos or flautas). Everyone who works there is friendly and kind, especially the chef. ♥️

Anna Cienkowski (Ania C'ski)

Absolutely love everything about this spot. The staff is awesome, the food is incredible and the beverages and drinks are great. They even serve alcohol. Their soups & chili, hot sandwiches and pastries are exceptional. The source organic chicken and fresh eggs from from Harrisons; bagels from Kauffman, different dairy and butter from Wagner Farm, pastries from Bennistons and etc. Truly a cool spot to read a book, work on your laptop or just sit with a friend and chat. They get into themed items for holidays and go out to decorate. Also have coordinated events too. Kathy the owner truly knows how to run a great establishment. Very kid friendly and excellent prides for the value of what you get. Plenty of parking and a block from the library, train station and a park. My only grip is that the bathroom need a little more attention. They also have a reward system too eirh gracious cash back and a drive thru. Also have gluten free option. Great variety of fresh items. Truly a gem to have in Glenview.

I ordered a gluten free pepperoni pizza and it was just okay. The pizza didn't have too much flavor to it.

Such an amazing place! The staff is so sweet and friendly the moment you walk in and super helpful with recommendations. I went with one of their açaí bowls and my friend had the anxiety buster smoothie. They have great options whether it’s gluten free or/and organic! Wonderful outside seating and got to meet the owner also! Can’t wait to go back

The grilled octopus was phenomenally cooked. Sooooo tender and flavorful. The hummus it was paired with was also a stand out. They offer gluten free pasta and I could tailor my dish to suit, I couldn’t stop gushing about how flavorful everything was. Would have loved a gluten free dessert option, but will definitely be back!

Went there for lunch with an old college friend this past week. There aren't too many non-fast food places around Willow/Waukegan and we were glad we found this place. My rueben was a standard rueben but the dressing came on the side instead of slathered inside like I prefer. The sweet potato fries were clutch. My friend had a classic burger on their gluten-free bread, so her burger fell apart fast. She said her steamed broccoli (just a moderate sized head of broccoli, not trimmed down or broken apart) was very bland. It looked like it was literally just steamed, no seasoning to be seen. Overall a decent experience, the food was standard American fare with some Greek influences (saganaki was on the menu), the booths comfortable and just private enough. Service was great and the table bread & whipped butter was delicious.
