We made a reservation for Sunday night before a show. Reserving online was easy and I noted a gluten free menu was needed. Day of, the hostess picked up immediately when I called to say we were running a few minutes late. We came in and were seated immediately - with one GF menu in hand. Waters were filled, and a server brought a basket off pop overs. Noting the GF menu, she came back with GF breadrolls for my mom. Waiter was nice, helped my mom choose wine. She got the lobster risotto and I had the fresh tortellini. Food was fast, tasty, and delicious. We were given fresh macaroons with our bill, and the server brought my mom a couple more GF rolls for the rode. Such a great experience! Thank you!

We had dinner here with my young son, who has celiac. As soon as I mentioned gluten-free/celiac, the waitress immediately listed all the options available, explained that they have a dedicated gluten-free fryer, and described the procedures they follow. Most dishes could be made gluten-free, and my son chose the nachos. The service and knowledge were excellent!

Ordered ‘shroom burger (amazing), with spicy crinkle cut fries (way too spicy, even for a Korean), and Shake Shack burger with a gluten free bun (the gf bun didn’t fall apart, which is rare!). Lots of seating at this location.

Pictured is their gluten free bread egg and salmon sandwich that waa good. I loved this bakery. It gets very busy during the peak times but the lines seemed to move quickly. Because of how busy they are during peak times, seating can be a bit limited.

This place is incredible. As a gluten-free girl, traveling with her dairy-free friend, food can be a challenge. This place had plenty of options to meet both of our dietary restrictions. I had this zucchini/corn fritter bowl. It was incredible. They also offer specialty coffees, salads, acai, all fresh and beautiful. This is a perfect summer spot for a cool meal. The prices were also strikingly reasonable, especially for Boston. The vibe is also brilliant. The colors are vibrant, and the energy is high. I loved every aspect of Life Alive!

This is our favorite place to order pizza from! Always delicious and the team is SO friendly and considerate. We have dietary restrictions and Union Pizza offers a great dairy and gluten free option. They also go above and beyond to check ingredients, make sure you’re comfortable and make sure you get what you want. Delivery is fresh and hot. Highly recommend!

Seating is limited. Some of the BEST gluten free pizza crust I've had! Can't say what it tastes like the day after though which could change my opinion since most gluten free pizza crusts aren't excellent the day after. I had a side salad which was good. Nothing fancy, typical. I can't remember what pizza options I got but I really liked what is pictured on the right side best but both were delicious. Dirty Water Dough Comment come to the Midwest!

They do have gluten free pasta which is nice, but the sauce wasn’t very good, not worth the price.

Super tasty food with lots of options and reasonable pricing for Boston. They have a build your own bowl that is great for allergies. They gave me a printed handout with labels as to what had certain allergens and most of the mix ins were gluten free.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about this restaurant. Service was absolutely top notch, our server went above and beyond. I asked for cucumber for my Hendricks and tonic, he couldn’t find any so created a sad face with other garnish’s I could use for my drink. But he came through by finding me cucumber! The food, oh so good! They brought out bread for my wife, I passed because I am gluten free and then the server said they had gf bread for me and got it from the warmer. The clam chowder my wife loved. And the mains, amazing! My wife had the crab and lobster ravioli and I had scallops with potato gratin. Both fantastic! If you are visiting Boston in the area it’s a must do!

Abe and Louise’s is one of my favorite restaurants in the city. The bar area is elegant and never disappoints. The staff is super friendly and professional. The food is top quality. I recently when in for lunch and they were very accommodating to my gluten allergy. Definitely one of the best in Boston.

We found our way here because of its gluten free recommendations. And I'm told they did not disappoint. In fact, we went here on back to back days because of its selections and overall freshness of the food. The inside is very aesthetically pleasing + love the exposed white brick walls and the displays of sweets is pretty stunning. We enjoyed sandwiches, desserts, cappuccinos-- everything was delicious. Wishing we had one here in Toronto to be honest! Such a great spot.

A little cramped, but the food is pretty good. I’m celiac and i was so excited to learn they had gluten free cones :). for something gluten free they were very good! i got the yogurt flavor and tiramisu (also gluten free, all the flavors are!!!) and it was soooo good. sad to see all the bad reviews on the staff, it was very busy when i went but everyone who was working was very nice too me. they seem understaffed but as someone in food service they were doing a great job, i think a lot of the reviews come from people who don’t work food service… the guy who helped me (dude with all the piercings) was really sweet and was really nice about my allergy and was very helpful with making me feel like my food would be safe. so hard to find celiac friendly places in boston, totally coming back this summer :)
