Top 19 Gluten-Free Kid-Friendly Spots to Explore in Germantown

Bri Howard

I went here for dinner tonight with my partner. The restaurant was clean, the ambiance was nice, and they were playing chill music. I am gluten free and felt there were a decent amount of options for me and that the menu was well marked. They have probiotic sodas and alcoholic kombucha, which I find to be pretty rare at a restaurant. The food came out pretty quickly, the portions were satisfactory, and everything was quite flavorful. The only complaint I had about the entire experience was that we felt very rushed and uncomfortable at the end. The server came up to us and asked if we needed anything else because they were “closing”. This combined with her hurrying us to give her our card after she dropped off the check and turning off the music made us think it was past 9, so we got up and left..but it was 8:30 when she started nudging us to leave.

Was listed as a gluten free friendly place. Really they have gluten free shells you can replace any dish with. But the only thing I could have was the pad Thai without the egg and im so used to it coming with protein I forgot to add it seperatly and it just barley hit the spot for me. But it was allergen safe I believe. But I would not go back. Gf selection very limited.

This is my first time ordering from Ledo Pizza in Germantown and I can definitely say that it will not be my last. I ordered for a group lunch today and the staff was so friendly and helpful. Everyone enjoyed the pizza and wings! I will be back to try a gluten-free pizza.

I love &pizza Germantown. Tevon is always kind, friendly, helpful, and makes my pizza perfectly! I really appreciate him for using extra precaution for my gluten allergy. The rest of the staff are friendly as well. I’ve never had a bad experience at this &pizza location. Everything is always great every time!

My gluten free pasta was not fully cooked. I had to pour the seasoned olive oil on it to have flavor. My husband's 7 gummy, undercooked wings were $13 and $5 side of fries had 20(we counted) fries. Over priced and under delivered.

Great BBQ, ultra clean restaurant and kitchen, friendly staff and management. Excellent gluten free options and they take care not to cross contaminate. Just be sure to mention any dietary restrictions when ordering. A+

I regularly order from here and the sushi, nigiri, and appetizers are always fresh, superb, and tasty. As someone with celiac disease, I’ve never encountered any issues with the food nor have gotten sick as some places do add wheat or crunch to sushi rolls. I always request rolls without, and Zane always delivers. The octopus salad is my recommendation for our more adventurous eaters and the fried tofu appetizer is terrific as a delicious vegan side. I’ve had a variety of their rolls and each is absolutely delicious! I’ve not dined in yet, but the takeout quality is so on point. I really recommend trying Zane.

Fantastic experience last night at this location. Chris, our waiter, was very knowledgeable. We have a gluten allergy and mussel allergy and he made sure the food was safe and even asked the owner when he wasn’t sure. The food was delicious and the service was FAST. One of the best KBBQ and hot pot experiences I’ve had.

We are from the Smoky Mountains close to parkway in North Carolina and our biece that was with us is from Kentucky. We found Mama Lena's off google search after visiting DC. We don't know how we got in, especially when you have to have a reservation a week or so in advance. It was the absolute best food, atmosphere and service we've EVER experienced!! Rick explained everything to us and helped really wet our appetites. Since we are gluten intolerant, not celiac, we found we can eat non GMO european flour without getting sick. Everything here is homemade. From the bread in your basket, to the pasta and the sauces, its all from Mama Lena herself. We were happy that we got to meet Mama Lena and family! It was by far, the best Italian food we've ever had! We can't recommend anything, in particular, because everything was good. We only suggest to order it all. We took home 5 containers of food! If we're ever this way again, we know where we're headed!!! Thank you to all at Mama Lena's!!!

This bistro is fabulous and I like good food. The chef created special dishes for my gluten free and dairy free daughter. The food was excellent. We had 2 appetizers that the chef suggested and they were delicious. We had escargot, and a cheese app. For our main courses we had lamb chops, filet au puovie, duck breast, and steak frittata. All were finger licking good. For dessert we had chocolate moose, rice pudding, and a fruit with sauce on it. Highly recommend this wonderful yet affordable restaurant. Great for a special occasion or just for a great dinner.

Came for breakfast and this is one of the better run locations I've been to. Service was fast and and friendly. Pablano eggs Benedict was a surprising option for an American chain. Had some heat. Gluten free and vegetarian options listed on menu. They list oatmilk as an option for coffee but we're out during my visit.
