Early dinner on a weekday. Restaurant was largely empty but began to fill up after we finished our meal. Really nice seating and bar area. Hostess was friendly and helpful. Service was very good and she was able to provide a lot of information regarding the gluten free menu items. The gluten free menu is pretty extensive which was great! Had the cheese steak spring rolls which were absolutely delicious! Crab cake and fish sandwich were enjoyable. Dessert was upside down pineapple cake which we really liked as well. Drinks were also made well - we had the espresso martini which we would definitely order again! The only issue we encountered was the bathroom soap dispenser was broken so we couldn't wash our hands. That was a little frustrating but they helped resolve the situation. I would definitely return again to try more menu items!

First of all—absolutely adorable place! Whether you’re dining in or grabbing takeout, this spot is a win. The people are some of the friendliest you’ll ever meet. And the best part? Everything—yes, everything—is 100% gluten-free. From appetizers to desserts, and it all tastes flipping amazing! Portion sizes range from generous to large, prices are spot-on, and the flavors? Out. Of. This. World. Whether you’re celiac or just appreciate incredible food, this is a must-visit. Bonus: they also offer dairy-free options, so everyone at the table is covered!Q

Best gluten free meals and options in the US. Amazing service and terrific food.

Noah Steege

Not Celiac safe. Went there for lunch yesterday and my wife got glutened by cross contamination.

Melissa Johnson

As someone with a gluten allergy I am grateful to have a food stop where I don’t have to worry about anything on the menu. Been multiple times and everything is fresh and consistently good.

Michael McCartney

This is the only safe place to eat if you have any sort of allergy or intolerance to gluten. There is never any cross-contamination and the food is always absolutely delicious. The brownies and cinnamon roll cake are my favorite but you can't forget the paninis. Ms Donna is kind and will take care of you no matter what

Katelyn Neumann

I appreciate having a bakery in this area that makes gluten-free foods. However, most of the items I've ordered have been disappointing and not worth the high cost. The biscuits are too dense, dry, and salty. The everything bagels are tough and salty. I wouldn't order either again. The cupcakes are okay. I do love the chocolate croissant, though. Get it heated. It is sweet, chocolately, and delightful. I will order it again. Please note this is not somewhere you can sit and eat. There is room for about 2-3 customers to enter, order, and exit.

Maria Bliznetsova

One of my absolute favourite to go places for breakfast/lunch! I tried almost everything on the menu and quality of food is excellent! Everyone can find something, they have vegan and gluten free options too. But for me, Huevos Rancheros, Summer Cod, Cobb Salad and peach pie are top choices! New location in Arlington also has a big garage parking and easy access as well.

We left about ten minutes ago. Eric was our server and I can’t put into words how phenomenal his service was. He knew the ins and outs of the main and gluten free menu and he checked on us often but not too much. Eric’s demeanor was kind and welcoming and service is exactly what we all imagine when we say “They don’t make them like this anymore.” Excellent experience.

Scott Coker

Excellent food and a lot of Gluten free options.

Kari Jackson

Always looked like a fun place when I drove by and finally went a few weeks ago with friends for dinner. It was amazing. Our waitress, Brenda, was incredibly kind and helpful. She talked us through the menu and made great recommendations. We all ended up getting the grilled arepa llanera- a delicious combo of avocado, steak and cheese with a sauce. We also tried different sides- I had the tequenos which were sooo good. For beverages - they had a great happy hour and we got $7 blackberry sangria that was a perfect addition. I think we all enjoyed it. But I will say our overall favorite was their green garlic sauce. They need to bottle it- its that good! Also- almost EVERYTHING was gluten free! Overall it was a great experience. Will definitely go again!

Krystalyn Weaver

Disappointed. Hangry Burger has been a staple for us but quality has taken a turn. Maybe there’s new management? About 3 times out of 4 our order is wrong or something is missing. This time the sides all tasted like they were sitting out for hours and my burger was so greasy that the bun was inedible. Really sad because I loved having a great option for gluten free takeout. But when a fast casual meal for two adults and a toddler is over $50, quality needs to be more consistent.

Strange Hood

Great authentic Korean food. And it’s gluten free🤍. The place is super clean and there’s great customer service. Will definitely visit this place again. Thank you Rossy and team.

Tara Ward

I'm in love with this place! As a Celiac, it's SO nice to find excellent food that caters strictly for us and that it's nearby.

Danyale Kellogg

The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about celiac disease. We enjoyed the food and had lots of great leftovers.

Steven Wacker

Ynot pizza has our go-to place for years. They take great care in preparing Gluten Free food. We feel safe with their food handling practices.

Elaine Gawronska

Had to wait a few minutes to get seated as they were busy. Obviously popular so that's good. Lots of gluten free and vegan options which were clearly marked on the menu and much appreciated. The food was delicious and the staff helpful and friendly.

Lauren Miller-Mazzant

The food was just as amazing as the service! Everything was delicious, and I had the best French toast I’ve ever tasted. The staff were all friendly and accommodating. Gluten free options were also available here!

Tish Baird

my wallet will be taking a hit. the menu is right up my alley for taste. the staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. you can see partly in to the kitchen. well worth the visit.

K. Ry (K-Ry)

As always, my gluten free vegan pizza was fantastic!!

stella evans

Their gluten free chicken was excellent. The service was outstanding. John Paul went above and beyond to take care of us. We will definitely be back.

lindsey packard

The food was really really good, I got the fried chicken, the crab cakes and we got the chocolate cake. They were all gluten free and delicious. The building though was so old, and it smelled awful, was very dusty and was a bit hard to breath because it was so musky. I’ve been to some restaurants that were in older buildings and none of them have been like that. Then our service was really bad also. So food-5 stars, atmosphere-1 star service-1 star. There is outdoor seating so maybe it’s worth it to sit outside and eat in the fresh air. They had a ton of gluten free options though.

L Miller

Lots of healthy options. I tried their sausage biscuit and Cyprus side salad. The biscuit was good but the salad was stellar! So fresh and delicious. The dressing so light and flavorful. They had lots of gluten free and vegan options. Enjoyed the inside, very warm and inviting.

Sara Kelly

My gluten free family was so happy to find a new gluten free bakery in our travels. Delicious treats (especially the pepperoni rolls) and great prices. We have found our new spot to visit every time we are in the area. 😋 Hopefully next time we can dine in and enjoy the awesome ambience of the restaurant.

Gluten free

This place was so good we came back the next day because we couldn’t stop thinking about it. I have celiac and the celiac waffle was incredible. My husband loved the paffles! The owners were so friendly and welcoming. Definitely going to be a tradition on our next trips to Charlottesville!

J F

Came here on Valentine’s Day. My server Lexi made sure my meals would be shellfish and gluten free. Also love how many gluten free options there are too. I had the devils pass dip which was so flavorful and had the cheeseburger which was good too. Also tried the chocolate decadence which is gluten free too, very rich chocolate flavor

Our waitress was Frances. She was very charismatic and very knowledgeable about gluten free foods. My wife has celiac disease and this her greatest concern when it comes to trying a new food location. It was an amazing experience!

Taylor

Good pasta and gluten free options… the fact that I couldn’t get a Mocktail or alcohol free wine here in 2025 sucked…. Add mocktails asap please!

Victor Bieniek

I especially appreciate that they offer gluten free options of many classic Chinese dishes. This is my go-to restaurant for Chinese.

Michelle Marcet

BEST options for gluten free and dairy free. Sam the sever was very respectful of my allergies and it was truly appreciated.

Alexis Taylor

We got our wedding cake here and it was phenomenal! I have a ton of allergies, wheat and dairy being my biggest triggers. Finding a vegan gluten free wedding cake that still tasted good was really important to me. WPA Bakery nailed it. It was beautiful and delicious!

Richard Durkin

High ceilings and Southwest decor make Sweetwater Tavern a compelling restaurant. Great sandwiches and sides served by an attentive team of wait staff. They have their own beer on tap. The owners understand the needs of customers who have Celiac disease and offer gluten-free menu without being asked. Worth experiencing!

sharon wolfe

Had a fish meal with pomegranate and Quinoa on the Gluten free menu and it was amazing!

Melinda v

I love the food here. It is so flavorful and the portions are nice sized. They are as kids friendly as they can be with the older adult atmosphere. I recommend the burgers. The wine selection is fantastic! They have a great gluten feee menu.

Sanskriti Kant

This cafe is located in Reston near the lake having beautiful view. The ambience is pretty Greek and happy. You can order food from there and enjoy either inside or outside with the beautiful lake view. The pizza was brick oven cooked and was so tasty. They used fresh mozzarella. They have vegan and gluten friendly options too. The staff it’s so friendly. We also had panini that came with chips and pickled cucumber. Its was also nice. They have spicy sauce ketchup and other seasoning too you can use

My wife and I visited this restaurant for lunch when we arrived in Smithfield, VA. On their menu, there were multiple instances of gluten free options. After we were seated, we told the waitress about my wife being celiac. She immediately told us that, despite having gluten free options, they cannot guarantee there won't any cross-contamination as their kitchen is *not* properly equipped. This was indeed very disappointing. To play it safe, my wife ordered the Greek Salad. However, the salad was dressed with iceberg lettuce instead of the spring mix as advertised. The Club Deluxe and soup that I ordered were delicious. My proposal to management is to *explicitly* state on their menu that cross-contamination is a possibility. We certainly appreciated that the waitress mentioned this to us before we ordered. Of course, adapting their kitchen to provide a gluten free environment would be a preferred option.

I was really excited to try this spot and was a little disappointed. Great and extensive menu with gluten-free, vegan, and healthy options. I ordered the pancake combo, and my pancakes were undercooked. They were perfectly brown on the outside, but the inside wasn't cooked through enough. My server was friendly and the restaurants decor matches it's name.

Joe Brognano

Good gluten free pizza

Brandy Pollard

We have been to the bakery twice now and bought the bakery items from Good Foods Grocery and Elwood and Thompson. We have had the take and bake cinnamon rolls, brownies, cupcakes, and more! Today we tried the strawberry shortcake and it was really good! The cupcakes are my daughter’s favorite. I have a soy allergy and gluten intolerance. My daughter has peanut, most tree nuts , and egg allergies. It’s so nice to be able to walk in and be able to let her have a choice. Thank you!

Best Thai around without a doubt. Always great food and service. If you have any allergies they are very good with adapting the dishes to accommodate. Wife is gluten free and they always get it right. Will continue to come back. Recommend: Pad Thai Gai, LEMONGRASS SOUP-incredible especially when sick.

Tim Beaver

We were in Williamsburg on vacation and decided to try Antonio’s based on reviews on Find Me Gluen Free. Our two daughters (12 & 14) have Celiac disease. Our older daughter had the GF ravioli and our younger daughter had GF penne with red sauce. We all shared GF calamari as an appetizer and the girls split GF chocolate cake. I had the veal Saltimbocca and my wife had the linguine and clams. The garlic knots were also delicious, but only my wife and I were able to have them. We would highly recommend Antonio’s, especially if you are looking for a GF Italian restaurant.

Elenwin L

They have Gluten Free fried chicken and also GF Fish & Chips. What more can I say? Yum!
