Top 30 Gluten-Free Spots to Explore After Dark in Columbia

Great gluten free options.

A great build your own pizza restaurant that offers an extensive variety of toppings and 5 types of crust including gluten free, cauliflower and keto. The way it works is you pick your crust and then you have the option to add as many toppings as you like. Your pizza is then baked for you in about 5 minutes. I have been to similar pics restaurants, but I find Blaze to be the best I've tried so far, mainly for the topping selection and price. This location also offers outdoor seating. I find that the main drawback to this location is that it is always very noisy in the dining room. The service had been quick and friendly when I visited. I will return here again.

I chose this restaurant while I was in town specifically because I have celiac disease and they had items on their menu that were clearly labeled as gluten free. What I was able to eat was delicious, but their gluten free labelling on the menu is incredibly misleading. I asked our server if the tortilla chips (labelled gluten free) on the menu were fried in a fryer that also fried foods that contained gluten and was told they are. So not gluten free. I asked if their corn tortillas for the tacos were warmed on the same surface as their flour tortillas and was told they were. So they're not gluten free. This sounds like an insane distinction if you aren't familiar with celiac disease, but I have had tacos make me sick this way in the past. Our server asked the kitchen to warm them differently and it was fine. And again, my tacos were delicious. I appreciated that the server communicated with the kitchen to warm my tacos. But if I had trusted the menu (or I guess just ASKED if things were gluten free vs asking specifics about how items were made) I would have spent tonight very ill.

They took our group of 20 elementary school kids and 6 adults without a reservation. The food came incredibly fast, tasted good and the waitress was amazing. She worked around the kids, gluten intolerance, and food allergies like a pro

Jeremy was a fantastic server! We have a gluten allergy and they did their best to help us with any questions we had and notified the kitchen of the allergy. We will definitely be back!

Cantina is always my go to restaurant especially in the city! The roasted chicken tacos are always my favorite! They have so many gluten free options too! The service at the bar or if you are sitting at a table is always amazing! The manager was very informative on higher shelf tequila and helped our group out tremendously! I will always recommended cantina! Can’t wait to visit again!

Food was hot and fresh; a little peppery. My burger was supposed to be lettuce wrapped since they were out of the gluten free wrap. Nice atmosphere.

Robert was the BEST server I’ve had in a long time! He took very good care of our table of Celiacs and also took a second to train another new employee about allergies! A true treasure!

Karen Hall

Our server Samya D at the Forest Dr location was wonderful!!! She knew her menu , checked back several times and was so pleasant!! I am a gluten free person so I had their gluten free menu to view… she made sure our table needed nothing!!! Servers all over need to take notes from Samya… thank you for a job well done! We’ll be back and ask for her again!!! Better keep this server Bonefish!!!!

Very tasty BBQ in vibrant Five Points Columbia! Nice selection of sides. Some meats and sides were out during our visit. Good drinks and wonderful service. Took our gluten and onion allergies seriously. Loved having a huge selection of sauces right on the table. Free onsite parking. Lots of food and shopping nearby. Safe area with lots of activity.

Was really impressed with how serious they took me having celiac, advised what was/ was not GF/ Cross contaminated. The GF bun for the burgers was pretty good!

I tried this restaurant after recently learning of my gluten allergy. The gluten free burger I got was pink. My husbands burger was pink and we sent it back twice. They obviously cook the burgers too fast with the heat too high. The gluten bread was hard and the fries were dark and hard also. We asked for more fries twice with the same outcome. The staff were nice and friendly & discounted our meal but they need to re evaluate how they cook well done burgers.

This is my favorite restaurant in Columbia. They have gluten free options and southern options too good to pass up! And the martinis 🍸❤️

Excellent food but very long wait. Our server, Jonathan, was very entertaining. The parking lot is small, but there is overflow parking if you need it. Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options are available.

Well! I stopped by this location recently with the children I nanny. They were exhausted and famished from our car ride back from the Hamptons (winter home) and desperately needed a bite to eat. I hoped and prayed that this Sonic would be the right place to stop, and I soon realized my prayers had been answered. Upon arrival I met the guardian angels of this Sonic location, Katie and Ginny. These girls catered to the children as if they were their own, answered our questions regarding dietary requirements (the children are gluten and nut free) and soothed their nerves until the food arrived. I highly recommend anyone visit this Sonic, and I highly recommend that these girls receive the highest raise possible because they are the highest caliber employees I have ever encountered at any fast food establishment. When I take the children to their summer home (Maldives), we will certainly stop back by and can only hope to see Katie and Ginny’s beautiful and helpful faces once again.

Went 1st time last night. Love the atmosphere... they were playing Sinatra, soft jazz, etc when we got there. Bumped up to more contemporary, but not too loud, which was great for conversation. We ordered the 1lb mussels w/Thai chili...YUM! And Beef Borganion...good but could've used more wine. Tuesdays are 25% off bottles of wine. Nice surprise. I do wish there was a goat dish on the menu! The duck tacos were fabulous (& Gluten free if matters for you). We will be going back! OP (or Opie?) the owner and Johanna or server were very gracious!

Katelyn kelly-morris
