Top 11 Gluten-Free Late-Night Spots to Enjoy in Bethesda

I am so excited to have found this place! My youngest daughter is diagnosed Celiac Disease and so cannot have even the slightest bit of cross contamination in her food or she'll be sick. On Christmas Eve I called to see if they had a dedicated gluten free fryer (my girl loves fries!). I was told no but the man, Jason, who turned out to be the GM, encouraged us to go anyway because they have such an extensive gluten free menu. I'm glad we gave it a try! When I arrived Jason told me he decided to make a gluten free dedicated fryer in his kitchen and had already started it up to be ready for my daughter's fries! On top of that, the staff were all lovely and the food was *amazing*! Jason, if you see this, thank you again! It's rough for a 13 yr old with Celiac Disease; your kindness made a difference! We will be back!!

This restaurant had been on my list for a while, and I’m glad I finally visited with friends. It’s always packed when I walk by, and now I see why. The hostess and staff, including Partner, who was kind, funny, and brought our wine, made us feel welcome. Our server, Crystal, provided excellent service with helpful recommendations that suited my picky eating. The menu included a few great options for my gluten-free and vegan friends, and the food met all our expectations. The desserts, especially the crème brûlée and pistachio brownie, were outstanding. I look forward to returning to try more seasonal offerings. Thank you, Silver, for a wonderful dining experience!

We love coming back to this restaurant year after year for their delicious food and exceptional service! The staff are so friendly and helpful. Everything is made fresh and delicious and there are some unique dishes to pick form. There is gluten free pasta available for the pasta dishes. Really great quality food. Portion sizes were very reasonable for a dish, nothing too crazy. Definitely get a dessert! The chicken piccata was very well made, the risotto was a Greta vegetarian dish, and the pasta are all incredible.

I tried their birria quesadillas made with corn shells. The meat had great flavor. The birria broth had a touch too much cinnamon for my taste, but it was still good. They were very accommodating with my gluten allergy. The waiter was able to tell me what was gluten-free and what I should avoid. I really appreciate it when the wait staff can answer my questions regarding allergens. It was a busy night. All the tables inside were full. The hostess opened the enclosed patio (with heaters), so I didn't have to wait, which I was totally fine with. Inside was very loud with people talking over the music and other people, so I was grateful to sit on the patio and enjoy my dinner.

Great gluten free pizza. Not for celiac folks though. Baked in same oven as wheat pizzas but great if GF is your preference.

The cheesecake factory is always a great place to go eat. They have a huge menu with all kinds of options, including low-calorie and gluten-free the turkey avocado sandwich that I had this time was delicious with the side salad. The service was great. The atmosphere was enjoyable, and it was conveniently located inside the mall.

True diner vibes here, and some great pricing to boot! I recently got very sick and in the middle of a celiac/gluten diagnosis and they were great today. I mentioned I was gluten free and I heard her expressly tell the cooks I was celiac, no toast or bread etc. Got me some slice tomato and had some amazing eggs! A new spot for me for sure

Food is back up to the level it used to be at this location. Had the steak fajitas, and they came out of the kitchen as ordered. A member of our party was able to modify a bowl so that it was gluten and dairy free - a plus.

I went here on a Saturday right before rush hour seemed to hit. It was not crowded until much later into our meal. I found the seats comfortable and staff friendly and attentive. Beer: This has a much greater range of options that anyplace that isn't a beer specialty restaurant. They also have seasonal and specials (being October there was some pumpkin flavors, gross). They serve in several sizes the largest being 25oz. Which lasted me an entire meal and for only $7.50 I felt I got my moneys worth out of it compared to a cocktail. I recommend knowing what you like or asking for a sample tasting before getting a giant beer. For price and variety of flavors and sizes this was excellent. Food: You'll find the classic American style of options but also some extra options you wouldn't expect. I ended up with a Mac N cheese with chicken and bacon mixed in. This was excellent, and they have a separate gluten free menu. However it should be noted that the menu is "gluten sensitive" and may not be for people with Celiac's. I would inform the server of your allergy to double check they prepare it safely. Serve went very well and I know not everyone will have the same experience. But hopefully the resturant will make amends for your issue. For the few times I've been I found this to be a pleasant experience and a price point to match.
