Top 30 Gluten-Free Lunch Spots Across Santa Monica

This restaurant is amazing. We went later in the evening and had dinner. It’s such a cool vibe and the food was amazing. I’m celiac and I let the waiter know. He went over the whole menu and all but 2 items on the dinner menu are gluten free or can be made gluten free. He made notes on everything for my allergy. I would highly recommend you give them a try. The only slight downside is the portion sizes are a little on the smaller side so an appetizer is the way to go.

Great place! Awesome gluten free options if you need that. Some of the best pasta I've ever had and really great service too. Upscale but casual atmosphere. Great prices for the quality, they could probably get away with charging twice as much. Parking is kind of a hassle, I wish they had valet.

Wide array of delicious gluten and dairy free options. The bagel sandwich and doughnut options were top notch. There is a nice place to sit in the ally just to the left of the store.

Found this little cafe on Christmas Eve and we're glad we did. Went for breakfast. The food was very fresh and tasted great. Coffee was also very nice. Plenty of gluten free options so everyone is covered. Service was fast and attentive.

I love Sweetfin! I have celiac so it is such a pleasure to eat at a restaurant where I do not have to worry. Our meal on Sunday was perfect! That being said, this particular location is hit-or-miss on getting the order correct. The Culver City location is my favorite - the manager and the whole team go out of their way to make your meal perfect. The SM is just closer to us.

Tocaya Organica is such a special weekly tradition! Their tacos are healthy and hearty. And a great value on Tuesday ranging from $2.50-$4.00. Lots of options for every dietary need. They have a ton of gluten-free options, including the delicious churro waffles. Thank you to Juliet for always making our family feel so welcome! Pro Tips: - Request your receipt as there are sometimes food errors…give them grace as Tuesday’s are busy! - Prepare to wait a bit for your meal to arrive - Parking can be tough in the area, so plan ahead

Honestly, I don’t think I saw this place at its full potential, but I will give you an overview of my personal experience. Hopefully you can find It useful. Food: I stumbled upon Bru’s Wiffle while looking for a restaurant with French toast. This place has a number of French toast options. I chose the Honey Poppers French Toast. These are bite-size crispy chicken in housemade siracha & louisiana hot sauce. I wasn’t impressed. The French Toast was thin and flimsy. It tasted like It was made on sandwich bread. I should’ve known better than to get chicken poppers. I asked for a of chicken thigh. It was juicy and crunchy. Had I known better, I would’ve chosen this chicken option to begin with. Next, I ordered an avocado toast topped with eggs. The melted cheese is a great addition to this dish. However, I prefer sliced avocado rather than the avocado spread. My partner had the Basil Pesto Crispy Polenta Avocado Toast with egg. This is a gluten free meal. The egg is an add on to both Avocado toast options. Beverage: This place has a Watermelon Mimosa that I’ve been trying to imitate for the last four days. It was sweet and fruity. Payment: Bru’s Wiffle doesn’t accept American Express. As an Amex Gold Member, one of the benefits of the card is the 4X points at restaurants. If this was a quick order to go, I wouldn’t mind. But, on an $150 bill, knowing this sooner would’ve probably impacted my choice to visit. Overall, I think that this restaurant had some options would be pretty tasteful. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to try them during this visit.

This is a long time favorite of mine .. their Spanish latte... Sooooo good .. especially the strong version... Their food is ok... They run out of healthier options pretty early, even at 9.30am, such as breakfast burrito gluten free tortillas... So go there early if you need or prefer certain options...

This was a surprise Gem! Brief & thoughtful menu with gluten free options for me. The space is a little industrial looking, but I guess that’s cool these days? It was a little busy, but it only took a few minutes for I find parking, which was free, and we didn’t wait long to order at the counter or for our food to be delivered to our table. The seating picnic tables outside, which was perfect in a sunny LA day. The table was pretty dirty. Nobody came to clean, so we got napkins and cleaned it ourselves. Everything we ordered was good. They managed to make the cauliflower rice in the grain bowl delicious. The gluten free squash pancakes were heaven. (Ask for another serving of syrup and skip the sweetened avocado). Oh and did I say I’m gluten free? The GF items were thoughtful and intentional…not your average consolation prize plate that they offer at so many places. As we were finishing up, a line had formed and people were waiting for a place to sit. We offered the people hovering over us if they’d like to join us, but they declined. (Maybe it’s not that kind of crowd?)

Absolutely top notch pizza! Had to order gluten-free pizza because of my daughter, but Vito’s gluten-free was as good as their regular.

Gunn is an amazing, thoughtful, and creative chef! I rarely write reviews, but Satdha is absolutely my #1 favorite restaurant in LA, and this place is a must try, especially for vegetarians and gluten free folks. The endive cups, snap pea salad, and beet-dyed noodles are my absolute favorites, though I honestly love all the dishes. They're all so unique, bursting with freshness and vibrant flavors. The names of the dishes may not sound sexy, but I promise you, the taste is truly delightful. Each bite feels like a little celebration, a joyful experience. I just adore and appreciate this restaurant and all the people involved.

Great service. I have come several times and the staff have helped me choose a gluten free item. The breakfast is good and this time I had a more traditional meal and it was flavorful too. They have vegan and gluten free options.

We dined for the first time last evening. We had come to take advantage of Restaurant Week and try out the restaurant. We were disappointed when our server said EVERYONE at our table of four had to participate in the Restaurant Week menu . Our one dining companion has numerous food allergies (gluten, dairy, eggs and yeast) so she was not able to partake. She only wanted the octopus and a side salad. I was disappointed you were not able to accommodate us so we ended spending more money than we needed. Also as a side note the noise level was very high which made it difficult to talk across the table.

The most amazing bread outside of Europe! If you love eating real and healthy bread, come here. They are using Italian flour to make their dough and you can taste the quality! My friend who is allergic to gluten, can eat their country loaf. A must try!!

Julia Kramar

We came with our child who has celiac disease, and they have a dedicated gluten-free fryer — which is a rare and wonderful find. The place was packed, but we discovered a standing area along the bar near the kitchen staff and servers where we could still enjoy our meal. The staff was incredibly kind and attentive, and the food… simply outstanding! It’s clear they care deeply about both the quality of their food and the needs of their guests. Highly recommend — especially for families managing dietary restrictions.

The gentleman that serviced us was very nice. I told him I was allergic to gluten and he was able to recommend the avocado toast. That's what I really wanted, but I didn't think they had gotten free bread. They did! 🤭🥹 This is a cute little place with a vibe. I highly recommend it. They have a bathroom for customers. OMG they even have a doggy treat and water for our four legged friends. 🐕

Ordered a KBBQ Steak Bowl and added mushrooms on UberEats for pickup. Didn't open the bowl until I got home and saw that they added mushrooms, but there was no steak. Scoured the entire bowl for any hint of steak but there was none :( The rest of the bowl was okay, but some protein would've been nice to tie it together. It's nice that a majority of the menu is gluten-free.

Massilia is a French restaurant nestled in Santa Monica near third street promenade, featuring a cozy interior and an intimate patio. Our group ordered the steak frites and lamb shank and both were quite delicious. Unlike most steak frites, the steak was thicker and you were able to select the temperature as well. The fries were perfectly crispy and deliciously seasoned. You have the option to get a chimichurri or bearnaise sauce, both of which are excellent options. The lamb shank is a gluten free meal and was so soft it pulled right off to the bone! In terms of cocktails, La Française was a clear winner. Anything with St. Germain is an obvious choice. Our server was very friendly, also French, and such a delight throughout the meal service. I definitely recommend dining here for modestly priced options with great ambiance. (32/50--2024)

My daughter and I stopped by this place while we were killing time before the Barbie movie began, so we decided this was the spot to sit down and eat dinner. Good decision as the quesadilla and the tacos were really good. I ordered the gluten-free quesadilla and I wish I could have brought the tortilla shell that he used home because that was the best taco shell ever. And I mean ever. Better than gluten, even! The customer service was great, and I don't even know how he did it by himself with all those people in there, but he somehow remained attentive to our table as well. My only complaint is that I wish they weren't so shy with the seasonings, but at least we had the two choices of sauces to fill in the gaps.
