Top 50 Gluten-Free Lunch Spots Across Chicago

BEST GF BREAD EVER!!! Unfortunately it is very expensive thought

Nancy Ramos

First time ordering delivery for a Gluten Free pizza. The pizza was delicious and came in Gluten Free box as expected. Based on reviews pizza did not affect Celiac individuals. Based on reviews items are kept separate to avoid cross contamination. I hope it stays true to this so we can keep ordering it for our family. Thank you!

Charlotte Skolnick

I have Celiac and this place was outstanding. I immediately let the server know I have Celiac and asked about the dedicated fryer and cross contact and she confirmed and said everything can be made gluten free except for the mushroom 'escargot'. The food was absolutely incredible. We got the slow cheetah drink, sweet corn hummus, moroccan onion dip, Big Eye Tuna & Summer Melon, Feta & Olives, Crispy Potatoes, and Lamb & Beef Kefta. All amazing, and I think our favorite of the lot was the moroccan onion dip. They have house made gluten free crackers for the hummus dips that were very delicious and crunchy. I always wait to write my reviews until the next day when I know I'm not sick from being glutened, and can confirm I did not get glutened here. Wish I took more pics of the food!

We got two small deepdish one of them glutenfree. Delicious and hearty! The crust tasted like a proper bakery pie that could be your breakfast. Service was a bit off, our host would take his time just taking our order and gave the impression that he was stonex

I could rant and rave about this pizza for hours. Their gluten free, stuffed deep dish is rediculously good. Dont even get me started on the gluten free calzones 😭 I've ordered delivery from here like 3 times this week, it's just so good!

Sylvia Smith

Excellent gluten free options, including blueberry pancakes!

Ryan Wantland

Pretty good pizza, great service, a little overhyped. 30-45 minute wait on a Saturday evening without reservations…not bad. We were served small samples while we waited which was much appreciated. We shared the Salsiccia e broccoletti to start which was absolutely delicious. The Italian sausage was full of flavor and rapini was excellent. My Cafona pizza was pretty underwhelming. Tomato sauce was too watery which soaked through most of the undercooked crust. My partner loved their gluten free Fiorentina! Good GF crust is hard to find.

Heather Taibl

My boyfriend’s son has severe peanut and tree nut allergies as well as Celiacs. We called the day before and the manager, Jennifer, walked through the meticulous precautions they take to make sure he can eat safely. She went out of her way to watch for and make a note on our reservation. From the moment we stepped in the restaurant everyone was aware of his allergies and they even have a dedicated gluten-fee menu. Jennifer checked in with us and made sure we were doing well. The food was phenomenal, the service was phenomenal, and we were so grateful to be able to dine somewhere that truly understood his allergies. Highly recommend this restaurant! Thank you!

Emmy Johnson

Not the best experience. Our waitress gave us indifferent answers about how the gluten free food is prepared. We ended up having to talk to the manager (which is something I hate asking for). The food ended up being okay and I didn’t have any reaction. It was nice to have gluten free mac and cheese! I think our experience would’ve been much better if we had a more educated waitress

Pasta. Fancy dinner.

Nicholas Sanchez

Very bed establishment. Very accommodating to my celiac girlfriend, and food was delicious as always.

Raj Joshi

We thoroughly enjoyed the gluten-free fish and chips, asparagus dip, and drinks. The ambiance was wonderful, and the service was friendly and attentive. I’ve been craving fish and chips for a while now, and I finally found a place that satisfies my craving.

Mary Bohn

As a celiac girlie, idk if I would go here again. I didn't get a huge feeling of confidence that my food was handled with care. The restaurant is more of a burn & turn style brewery. The bacon wrapped shrimp & triple sausage plates were amazing, I just can't speak to how safe they were. They do not have a dedicated fryer. They do have the Glutenberg GF beer and GF desserts. I didn't try any of the desserts though

Giselle Ballesteros

Dedicated Gluten Free kitchen, and the food was delicious! Raspberry mojito was amazing. Alligator dip was so good with amazing baquette toast, hard to beleive it was gluten free, the texture of the baguette was amazing. The gumbo had perfect amount of spice. The chicken wings were the best. The fettucine had such great texture for a gluten free pasta, totally nailed it. Loved chatting with Chesa! The atmosphere, decor, music, waitstaff, food were all wonderful.

Sarah W

Dedicated GF restaurant with the best bowls! I love the fan favorite.

Michelle Raclaw

Chase was amazing! Made my sister’s bday dinner special & gave special attention to the gluten-free choices to make sure the dishes were gluten-free. 10/10! Highly recommend Aba!

Sarah W

Great tapas restaurant with a marked gluten-free menu. Just check with your server about cross contact issues. I love the brussel sprout salad and the chirizo wrapped dates!

We were in Chicago for business. My friend has severe allergies, gluten, nuts, strawberries, eggs. We selected Mon Ami Gabi based on options for gluten free. We made reservation and arrived about 20 minutes early. Entrance to the hotel is gorgeous. Front desk was friendly and helpful. Making sure we parked at the correct valet location (there's 2 one for residence one for restaurant. They brought us to the bar while we waited for seating. Barkeep was very friendly and very efficient. We didn't wait more then 20 minutes for our table. We were seated and we ensured they were aware of the concerns for gluten and other allergens. Waiter already was aware thanks to OpenTable reservation, I'd added a comment so they'd know ahead. They were extremely considerate pointed out the dishes that are GF. We skipped an appetizer and ordered dinner. The wait staff were friendly without being overly. Food was delivered quickly and cooked to perfection. I ordered medium rare beef and my friend ordered salmon almondine(without the almonds). Food was flavorful and delicious. Not only was our server attentive but the other staff ensured we were comfortable, well taken care of, and had everything we needed. They cleared dishes and glasses quietly while you ate without being distributive and made sure the water glasses were always full. I'd highly recommend the restaurant if you're in the area. For a Thursday the place was Busy. Reservations highly recommended. A mixture of date nights, family dinners (with younger kids) special occasions. Some folks were dressed up others in flannels and it all worked.

Went back-to-back mornings, delicious GF breakfasts, separate GF menu, food and beverages were excellent. We had Jack as our server both mornings and he was excellent, provided great options and understood gluten allergy options well.

Nicole Boelkins

The best gluten free pizza I have ever had!!! The drinks are also very good, and the service is good too. They have good mocktails as well! Will be coming back!

Grace Dransfield

Unbelievable, have a wine whilst you shop. Incredible selection, love love love. Bellissimo

Rachel Mandelker

100% Gluten free and so so good! You can bring home taquitos frozen or they can heat them up for you - loved it!!

Liv G

Very cautious with allergies. Fries made in dedicated fryer. Gluten free bun or lettuce wrap available.

Laura McKee

Great gluten free, vegan, and delicious food. Kind people. Nice space

C. Lor

I am so happy we stopped here for dinner. The staff were knowledgeable and so kind to me when I told them of my gluten and dairy allergies. Service was amazing and the food was sublime. I missed eating Italian for fear of cross contamination but they reassured me pasta were cooked separately. What a lovely place! I will be revisiting when I'm back in town. Edit: Forgot to add, my husband got an Amaretto sour and he said it was the BEST one he's had.

Gary Young

Great food and shrimp with grits gluten free especially tasty

Michael Baron

Rice noodles and knowledgeable on gluten free broth and other items

Kris Hamacher

Food is excellent, lots of gluten free options suitable for someone with celiac. Service is great, but it's very loud and overly crowded. Tables are extremely close and people are often yelling at each other, which isn't how I like to brunch. If you go early it's not as bad.

Hailey Yetman

Best airport food experience ever. I have celiac and as soon as I mentioned it they changed gloves and used new utensils to get food from new containers, which is above and beyond and so appreciated. Food is so good. Wish it was at every airport!!!!!

kristina dang

Maggiano was great! Not only was the food delicious, the service was excellent. I had the chicken saltimbocca. When seated, the waiter asked about if anyone had any food sensitivities and I’m severely gluten intolerant. He then invited the chef to come out to talk to me about my allergies/ sensitivity which was pleasantly surprising. Most chefs never do that. Overall, my boyfriend and I had a great time eating here. I’ll definitely come back again the next time I get to visit Chicago.

Isabella Dourigan

amazing donuts best gf ive had

Nicholas Padiak

Best gluten-free pizza in the city

Derek Dirks

Absolutely love this place! The gluten free pizza crust is amazing. Highly recommended!

Caitlin McAllister

Best gluten free dining experience I ever had

Steven Polokonis

The dosas, idli, sambar, ice cream… it’s all so wonderfully delicious and perfect for anyone anytime, whether you’re vegan, vegetarian, gluten free or not. It’s worth a trip into the city by itself for sure and I’m sure I’ll be back soon.

Eva Gandhi

I had a great friend share these with me so cannot speak to the price but OMG best gluten free “baked” dessert I’ve had. I feel so good after eating it and it’s still sweet. Truly perfect. I think the best flavors are the date one and the banana bread cup. And it’s vegan, yay!

Angela Zeigerbacher

I was blown away by how friendly and accommodating they were here. My husband, myself and my 4 year old daughter came in and they were immediately very accommodating to our family. I have celiac and they walked through the only 2 items that cannot be prepared gluten-free and then noted it's a dedicated fryer and they take care to keep those few items away from the other prep spaces to avoid cross contamination. They assured me I would be safe eating there which was so incredibly kind. Now onto the food! We had fried plantains, panuchos and flautas. All very flavorful and fresh. We also ordered the horchata and a margarita which were both great as well. I look forward to coming back and trying more of the menu!

Hailey Weeg

Food was amazing! Great gluten free options

Rachel Dawes

Excellent authentic Viatnamese. Entire a-la-carte menu is GF. Ordered the Bún Chả Hanoi with spring rolls, delicious!

TLC 2

Great experience at Pizzeria Uno. Medium deep dish easily feeds 2 people. Numero Uno pizza was delicious. All the toppings were cooked perfectly and were so fresh. We ordered bbq chicken pizza with gluten free crust and the gluten free crust is thinner than the regular deep dish.

D T

I'm gluten free and they took my restriction very seriously and were so thoughtful and kind! There's gluten free pasta and plenty of dishes to choose from. Customer service was 10/10!!

Matthew Foster

Delicious food. One of the most flavorful fast food places I have tried in a long time. Made fresh to order, delivered quickly and accurately, and great service made the visit enjoyable. Also, a completely Gluten-Free restaurant. I had the Sweet BBQ bowl with chicken, and would gladly order it again.

Phil Cole

Rock music, best burger I've ever had and Gluten free buns, fries and wings!!! Go you won't regret it!

Katie McKee

Amazing food - I dream about the meal I’ve had here. The servers are always well informed and I’ve never felt weird about asking for celiac safe food!

Sasha rodriguez

Absolutely delicious! Celiac/Gluten Free friendly. I appreciate the customer service, fresh ingredients, and gluten free sauce options. The space is clean and welcoming atmosphere. Excited to go back soon!

Alexys Kelsey

Cool date night spot. Options for everyone! I am gluten free (intolerance not allergy) and had no issues. I really loved Madai and I always love me some Chicago RAW. It was really nice to have the greenhouse-like glass roof above us, but I felt like some nice ambient music would have been a good addition. The service is was very polite and speedy.

Jane Wilberding

I LOVE this place. The space is super large, clean and open. The service is great. And the ciders are solid. I like that they are constantly rotating and trying new ones out. But if and when they are too weird for me, they always keep some on the menu permanently (the pedestrian cider is a fav). I have celiac and there are plenty of GF options and staff are always helpful in making sure nothing is cross contaminated.
