I’ve heard such amazing things about this place so I was really excited to try it. I ordered my food on Uber eats so that may have made the difference with dine out. The pizza was OK, I didn’t love the cheese and there wasn’t a lot of sauce. However, the bread was great especially gluten-free. The fries were a little bit cold so that might be why they weren’t so good but I wasn’t in love. And the mac & cheese was OK. It was probably the best thing out of all three items that I tried. I just wish it had more cheese. I would definitely try it again, but would try different items or in person this time.
A beautiful ambience and some very supportive staff. Unfortunately though they have limited gluten free and low-FODMAP options. So, folks with food sensitivities- this lovely place ain't for you.
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!
I went there after I dropped my bags at the hotel nearby. Starving after the long flight. So awesome to find an anti-inflammatory restaurant that had so much I could choose from. I had their yummy turkey burger that swapped out lettuce for the bread and a sweet potato hash. With a side of an amazing Kale, cucumber ginger, fresh green drink, and I got a gluten-free chocolate chip cookie to go. The staff were knowledgeable, friendly, and the manager went above and beyond, helping me out with something. Can’t say enough a good things about this place I’ll be back. I’m in town for a week. This will be my go to Place.
Top notch food. Quick and friendly service, Corey was attentive and helpful with modifications. Especially great spot for those with restrictions, options for vegan AND gluten free needs. New favorite: hibiscus green iced tea 🍵🧊
Everything was wonderful. They were able to work with our food allergies without issue. They accommodated gluten free, nut free, and even a garlic free guest! Room is beautiful, staff was on top of everything, would definitely recommend.
True Food Kitchen is at the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace. The ambiance feels like a calm escape from the busy Las Vegas Strip, with a bar and a comfortable dining area.
I chose to eat here as the menu focuses on healthy American cuisine with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. I ordered tuna poke bowl in black rice. It was very flavorful. Tuna poke was fresh. They also serve salmon bowl, avocado toast, and vegan items like the Teriyaki Quinoa Bowl.
Staff is friendly, attentive, and welcoming and will go out of their way to make guests feel special. Prices are reasonable for the quality, especially considering the location. Most entrees are under $30, and portions are generous.

First time coming to ‘El five’, my partner and I were first sat in a very awkward table on the edge of the restaurant- thankfully they were accommodating to moving us out to the patio. We were initially asked if we had any allergies (my partner has a gluten allergy and another allergy as well- any consumption of either causes severe debilitating migraines, blacking out, and loss of appetite for at least a week) we were made aware of which options were gluten free- the server was more than knowledgeable about the ingredients and advised us of the fact that they use the same fryer for both gluten and gluten free options. If you have celiac, I would avoid getting food here.
We initially were looking to get the eggplant fries which say they’re “gluten free” but yet are not guaranteed. Our server gave us a recommendation based on allergy preference. When the food came out we weren’t sure what we had ordered since we had to switch our initial pick so we were not dealing with any cross contamination. They ended up bringing out the wrong dish to the wrong table and unfortunately my partner consumed a good majority before we were made aware the mistake happened.
If you are gluten free or have any sort of allergy definitely be weary of ordering and double check before consuming. They ended up not charging us for our meals thankfully- unfortunately that doesn’t change the mistake made but the gesture was appreciated.
On the bright side, the drinks were good and the people working at there were very nice- just be cautious and ask twice.
** Update- definitely a major concern for anyone with celiac, not worth it for the price or the possibility of being served food containing an allergen without them triple checking that they’re doing everything right. Our bill totaled $160 for two people. The only reason we went here was for the abundance of gluten free menu items advertised, which they clearly cannot truly provide. You would think they could afford to have a separate fryer to actually accommodate the allergies that are LABELED MENU ITEMS LISTED AS GF.
I hope someone within management/ownership realizes the detrimental effect that this caused and will make changes to the way they prepare/serve food. I have been to restaurants with no gluten free options that were able to accommodate us no problems and no worries after the fact.
Don’t waste your time or money.

This place did not disappoint. Had the Margherita pizza and Buffalo e prosciutto. Amazing. For dairy free peeps, I can tolerate buffalo mozzarella. I found this out in Italy.
GLUTEN FREE OPTIONS
Food was delicious !
Service was excellent and our server was knowledgeable about gluten free options.
Sadly the only option for dessert was the Frozen Yoghurt was gluten free. I didn’t end up getting it because i was too cold to eat something cold since we sat in the patio area.
Freekeh is a hidden gem in SF and strikes that rare combination of amazing food, service, and ambiance.
We ordered a house sampler to try their various spreads and could not decide which one was our favorite- they were all that good, though the muhammara is a must-try! I am gluten intolerant and they happily accommodated me with homemade GF lavash-esque chips to go with the spreads.
We also got the cauliflower and three different skewers - would highly recommend the kufta and shish tawook (chicken); each came paired with different sauces and were incredibly well marinated and tender. We tried two desserts and loved the halawa o buza- creamy, nutty, and the perfect amount of sweet.
Our dining experience was complemented by the owner and waitress, who took great care of our table and simply radiated kindness and warmth. It was such a pleasure to dine here and we can’t wait to come back!
Accidentally gave me gluten free bread with my hummus, which was a better gluten free option than most, but still a far cry from the pita pocket I ordered. Chicken shawarma, humus is decent but not stand out, the real pita was pretty good, but apparently a roulette.
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!
hidden gem!! cute diner with tons of gluten free options. I let the server know of my gluten allergy, the staff were very knowledgeable. the buckwheat chocolate chip pancakes were delicious- even my non gluten free husband loved! definitely recommend making a pit stop here

BEWARE. The Gluten Free (GF) Labels on the menu mean GF options available for that dish, NOT that the dish is gluten free. Talk to your server about your order.
I was excited when seeing the GF labels all over the menu, especially when seeing that most of those dishes involved pita bread. Sadly after talking to the bartender I learned that their pita is (obviously) not GF. Their rice pilaf also has soy sauce in it, so do not just assume the dish is GF even though they are labeled GF. Service was great and the food was good. Pricey, but normal for the gaslamp area and it was very tasty.
This was such a cute place. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Loved the vibe inside. Absolutely loved the food. Lots of gluten free options including freshly made gluten free pita. Which was so so good!
Food was delicious and waiters attentive. My mom loved the coffee. They have Gluten Free options including GF bread. Getting a table for two is much quicker (10 minute wait) than it is for a larger party. We went for brunch.
Gluten free options. Bakery and food. Had the vegan gf Buddha bowl salad. Everything was delicious. Will be back. Took home some baked gluten free bread.
Excellent seared duck breast. The French onion soup was good but unremarkable. We couldn't figure out what was "wrong" with the focaccia bread until we realized it was gluten free - dry and dense. Desserts were excellent. On the whole, a good dining experience and worth another shot
I was so excited to try Mediterranean food and was super lucky to find they had gluten free options. The owner’s son has gluten intolerance so they are very knowledgeable. The food was so good and the staff was absolutely lovely.
Had an amazing experience last night for our anniversary! I’m newly gluten sensitive and there was so much on this menu I could enjoy and everything was delicious! Waitress was kind and helpful! Drinks were delicious and I will forever be dreaming about the chicken tirokroketes!
Great experience. Best tomato soup I’ve ever had. Turkey burger is delicious, and I’m not normally a turkey burger fan. Pearson provided great service. Many healthy options on the menu - gluten free, vegan/vegetarian. Pizzas are tasty and salads are creative. Recommend.
I was recommended this restaurant due to their gluten free selection. Loved the cauliflower as well as the mint tea. Thank you, Nathan, for being a fantastic server!
Amazing dairy free and gluten free options! They answered all my questions regarding the contents of the sauces (my allergies are pretty bad, and I am always so happy when people know what they are talking about.) I left feeling amazing & full! I got the rio bowl & their blueberry lavender kombucha.
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!
As a long time customer of True Food Kitchen - for more than 4 years - what initially interested us was the healthy non GMO, Gluten Free menu that does not use unhealthy seed oils (like Canola/Rapeseed Oil) in its food preparation. Since then, True Food has made some slight changes to its menus, including the use of controversial Vital Farms products as well as changes to its gluten friendly pizza dough and hamburger buns, however the one thing that has NOT changed - and is the best part of the restaurant: its employees. Ask for Chantal, Yuyu or Aaron - those are three of the best restaurant professionals you will ever meet! Their can do attitude, combined with their amazing ability to connect with customers is the REAL secret weapon at True Food Kitchen on PostOak. My family can eat at any restaurant in Houston, but we choose to eat at True Food Kitchen on Post Oak because we are always given excellent service and shown kindness when we eat there. Every restaurant should figure out how those three team members work, and copy it exactly - as a customer you leave having had a good meal, and GREAT service. Kindness, always served with a smile - and if there is any problem at all with your order, they are always quick to rectify the situation. You will never sit around with an empty glass of tea if you are being served by Aaron, Chantal or Yuyu. They always put the customer first - which is why, as long as they are working at TrueFood, we will always eat there! Give it a try - and ask to sit in their sections - you will have the best dining experience ever! Thank you Chantal, Yuyu and Aaron!!
Jay was the most knowledgeable, attentive and kind server! He graciously helps you navigate the large menu by giving sincere recommendations. I have celiac and need extra reassurance that my meal will be prepared gluten free. He made the experience excellent and we will be back thanks to him!
