The best gluten free pizza I've ever had! I've been let down so many times by both local and chain pizza places. Most gluten free pizzas are too dense, taste like vegetables (when there aren't any in the pizza), and/or too thin which is usually burnt. Pizza Wizard offers a thick and fluffy gluten free pizza crust that my pizza loving, non-gluten free partner even thought was great! Highly recommend.
When family and friends visit us in Rochester, we typically go to the Owl House because it offers so many dietary options. We have vegans, vegetarians, gluten-free, and meat eaters. No matter who we take, we always leave super satisfied, bellies full of amazing food and drinks. Even though we've visited The Owl House at least 6 or 7 times in the two years since we've moved to the Roc, this is the first time I knew I HAD to leave a review. We've always had great service, but Willow is by far one of, if not THE best server I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I was a server for years, and game recognizes game. She was funny, her timing was perfect, but her suggestions? I typically order steaks, pasta, or seafood dishes. This girl had me ordering pork chops for dinner, and it was the best pork chop I've ever had! Absolutely amazing! She made our evening out with our PA family perfect. I highly recommend checking this place out if you haven't already, the atmosphere, the food, the service, the menu options...it's all there.
Love this place! I’m a vegetarian, and my spouse is vegetarian and has a gluten allergy, and the Red Fern was able to accommodate with no issue whatsoever. We even had our choice of bakery items to choose from, which is practically unheard of. Only downfall is the staircase to enter, so it’s not particularly accessible, but they do have plenty of outdoor seating on the ground level.
My husband and I have been coming here for brunch every weekend for a few years now. The food is always delicious and the staff is incredible! Lots of options for different dietary restrictions (one happy vegetarian/gluten free gal here- and celiac safe!) and we never leave disappointed. His favorite go-to meal is the mad hatter plate and I love the garden scramble and potatoes with the rabbits way hollandaise sauce. Highly recommend it here! No reservations so be prepared for a wait time but it is WORTH IT!

I just cannot say enough good things about this place, it’s one of the best tasting restaurants we have been too. The burrata small plate was amazing, the home cut fries were so good, everything was great. The staff was super friendly, the atmosphere was so cute. We are so glad we picked this restaurant, a definite must try. Also they had a wide variety of gluten free options which was super nice for our son.
What an awesome place. Ordered their catering for an early Christmas Party. The food was phenomenal. And with the help of Anthony I was even able to accommodate a couple of Gluten sensitive guests. Really pleased with everything. Thanks very much.
I love this place. It's been several years since they opened and the pizza is still as good as it was then. My go to pizza: white sauce, feta, mozzarella, spinach, chicken, artichoke, roasted tomatoes, with a basil herb after bake is so yummy. They even have gluten free pizza. Highly recommend!
Had Salenas delivered for dinner and it was delicious. So fresh and tasty. It was so easy to find food I could eat (gluten free dairy free) and it tastes amazing. I also love being able to order margaritas to go!! 5 stars!
Highly recommend, particularly for anyone with food allergies or Celiac Disease. Our little one has Celiac and a milk protein allergy. The first thing the server asks you when you are seated is if anyone has food allergies. They have separate gluten-free prep and cook areas, and a separate fryer, so there's no cross-contamination. All of our son's food was brought out by a manager who oversaw everything and had a wooden "allergy" flag sticking out of the food. The food and service were great too! We'll be coming back!
I have Celiac disease and this is a restaurant I have not gotten sick from eating at. They are super knowledgeable and every server can tell you what’s safe and what’s not.
It’s one of the few places I feel safe eating at!!
Lento is one of our absolute favorite restaurants in the area. The food is incredible, the service is stellar, and we have always left happy with our experience. I also appreciate they have gluten free options as I have an autoimmune condition.
They have a HUGE selection of fresh homemade bagels and flavors of cream cheese!! It was overwhelming trying to choose what to get! For $3.75 I got a toasted French toast bagel with raspberry jalapeño cream cheese. She agreed to put butter on it first and then cream cheese! my fav 😋 The bagel was fresh and slightly cinnamony, and the raspberry jalapeño cream cheese was delightfully sweet with a mild kick of an aftertaste. I didn’t get any menu pictures but oh boy I gotta go back to try the other flavors. Maple bacon?? Pumpkin? Salmon? Yes pls. They also have gluten free bagels and vegan cream cheese and pastries!
Quaint little child-friendly spot offering good drinks and good food. However, if you plan on ordering food, you better have some time on your hands. It is not uncommon, from our experience, for food orders to take upwards to 50-60 minutes. Last time we ordered, it took 48 minutes for us to get two wraps that didnt even require any ingredients to be cooked. No explanation, no apology. The gluten-free wrap was in pieces and required a knife and fork (see image). Once again, everything is always delicious, but the speed of service is occasionally mind-boggling.

Our FAVORITE BRUNCH PLACE IN ROCHESTER HANDS DOWN!
I have a severe gluten allergy and they always accommodate even when the menu has changed .
The servers are amazing!!!! Everytime!!! Food never misses!!!
Dinner was fantastic. We had a change of dinner plans for a group of 9, and they sat us in 15 minutes. The service was excellent; our waitress took such good care of us, and we got our food quickly. We also needed gluten-free options and were very impressed with how knowledgeable the staff was in accommodating our needs. Highly recommend this place for both the service and the food quality!

Tapas 177 is such an incredible restaurant in every single way from food to drinks to service to the vibe. This review is about catering!! We worked with Chris Z who is an absolutely phenomenal person. Chris helped us pick out our menu and coordinated everything with us — all the way down to mentioning changes in texture from our usual restaurant experience to general effects of transport/time! Everything was delivered on time and set up perfectly. Even better, it was DELICIOUS and EVERYONE was extremely happy with the options!!! One thing Tapas 177 does exceptionally well is dietary restrictions. They’re very clear about risks with shared fryers but also take great care to label things. The variety on the menu allowed for us to cater gluten free and vegan without settling for things we weren’t interested in. Variety!!! So sorry to my future children but eating a mountain of Tapas 177 spring rolls with my wife on our wedding day is impossible to top. Thank y’all so much!!!!!
Id give 5 but they run out of gluten-free stuff and that's the main reason we go Joanna and Brianna are great wait staff they pamper my 92 year old Dad. The food is usually great too.
My family and I went there today, we got the nacho extreme, the pretzel, french onion soup and the gluten free meal. Amazing is the only thing I could say !
I used to have the most amazing experiences here, never had any issues. However I went here for Valentine’s Day and my pasta definitely tasted like regular pasta (if you know, you know). I asked the waitress to check with the cook and since we were sitting right by the kitchen, we saw the chef get mad because they had just closed the kitchen and he didn’t want to make a new meal and said to “just tell her it’s gluten free”. I brought this up to management with no response, so I won’t be returning here sadly.
I'm so boring- I've been getting the exact same thing here for the past 5+ years lol. Gluten free pad thai w/ tofu (with sriracha on the side). Sooooo yummy :)
Loved this place the first time I went. I went to order a chicken bowl online and I have Celiac Disease, meaning I cannot have anything with gluten, which pita has. Unbeknownst to be, their chicken bowls have pita on them without the menu on their website saying so. Will not be coming back if they can't even list all the items on their menu properly.
The food was good, and I'm glad they have gluten-free bread as an option without additional charge. nice soda machine, lots of sauces! One star removed on atmosphere because the place was freezing cold!
Truffle Mac and cheese along with a white chocolate almond cake (gluten free) was amazing. Most of their menu is gluten free, but would have enjoyed if there were more vegetarian options. Overall, great ambience and hospitality!
It was awesome. The food was delicious and they didn't skimp on the portion size at at all. The menu was huge and they have lots of gluten free options. Our waitress was super nice. I would love to go again sometime.
I'd give them higher stars but today they changed their Mac and cheese from gluten free to gluten-rich without posting anything or sharing any information about it and now my celiac friend is super sick. They just made the switch, so if you're celiac or can't tolerate gluten, be warned !!!
This place has been on my local restaurants to try for awhile now. It did not disappoint. I went with a couple of my girlfriends, one of which is gluten free. This place was perfect because they have several gluten free and also vegan options for anyone looking for those dietary choices. I started off with the duck wings, which were so much larger than I expected, perfectly crunchy with a somewhat sweet sauce (reminded me of country sweet sauce) which really married the flavors. I chose to have the gnocchi with peas, large thick pieces of fresh pancetta, mushrooms, in a light cream sauce with parmigiana shavings. I needed to add some more seasoning and parmigiana, but ultimately it was good considering it was listed as gluten free. This place is worth a try. It is perfect to go with friends, a romantic dinner, or also great for double dates.
Great food and gluten-free options never been ill from eating there. Great liquor selections as well would give it a 5 but parking is a little difficult and stairs
Great food, generous portion, and really kind owner! I called asking if they had gluten free injera and they were able to make it specially to order. I ordered takeout on a Friday evening (vegetarian combo) and not only was it ready quickly, the owner was incredibly sweet and lovely to talk to. Definitely will be back!
A cute coffee shop with quirky wall art. They have a good variety of food to choose from (we both got the BLT with egg and yogurt parfaits), and when we specified a gluten allergy, they offered to clean the griddle to reduce any cross contamination. It wasn't necessary for our needs, but it was thoughtful of them to offer despite how busy they were. The lattes were delicious, and the staff was very friendly and patient while we placed our order.
Silo Brunch Bar is a fantastic and refreshing brunch spot in Greece - definitely not your grandma’s diner. Silo outshines any other brunch we’ve had in the Rochester area.
Plenty of vegetarian options make it a win, and I can personally recommend the Veggie Omelet, Pancakes, and Caprese. My meat-loving daughter-in-law devoured the Silo Reuben and loved every bite. Bonus: If you need gluten-free bread, they’ve got you covered!
For a brunch that’s anything but ordinary, Silo is a must-visit. Oh and the hashbrowns! Just bury me now! YUM!
No complaints about the customer service but multiple times in a row now where I received the wrong order or wrong portion. Ordered a 12 piece grilled chicken nugget and only received the 8 piece. For $3 more dollars it would be nice to have the correct order. And then today I received fried chicken nuggets instead of the grilled chicken nuggets I ordered. I have Celiacs disease, and so I had to throw the whole order away as the food was contaminated with gluten. It would be nice if they actually protected those with allergies. Put me in danger and wasted $10 on dinner.
I should start by saying I am reluctantly gluten-free.
There were still customers in the lobby, so I tried to go in first, and it was about 5 min before the lobby closed for the night. I told them l just wanted to grab a take out real quick and didn't want to go through the drive thru with my trailer the girls washing windows told me I couldn't and gave me some sass. I would have just left normally, but it was the last place open with a gluten-free option, and I had a 1½ hour drive home.
☆They did have a gluten-free bun and have gluten-free grilled chicken.
☆They didn't serve it as it was supposed to be topping in a box and bun individually packaged in plastic. ☆They overcharged me $2 for the initial meal. I ordered an original extra pickles gluten-free, so with the prepackaged bun and grilled instead of fried chicken(I miss fried chicken) ☆They put in a deluxe with baccon meal so it cost the extra $2 then of course I was charged for the bun which I expected why does gluten free have to be so hard everywhere. The long and the short of it, the chicken sandwich was okay. The bun was meh, and the service was awful. Next time, I'll go without if I can't go to AURTHOR JAXON'S THE FOOD IS AMAZING AND THEY DON'T HASSEL YOU OVER GLUTEN-FREE!!!
Good Italian restaurant with a great selection of items on the menu. The prices are reasonable and the food is plentiful. Our server was very nice and refilled our drinks, ice tea, without being told. They also have gluten free upon request.
In town for a long weekend and found this place. I had a gluten free personal veggie pizza with dairy free cheese, and it was delicious. My husband ordered a burger and fries. The fries were crispy and so good. My kids got meatball subs and an order of cinnamon sticks. They had something for everyone, a great spot to have lunch.
As a part of my Rochester Coffee Crawl, I tried Hydra Coffee. I got the bananas foster latte (iced with almond milk) and it was really good! The merch and the vibes of this place is adorable. I loved the atmosphere and the fact that they had an upstairs area as well.
I’m a sucker for cold foam and creative/artsy lattes but this latte was definitely doable! It was all of the requirements of what you need in an authentic latte. When I come back to Rochester I could definitely see myself coming back to get some coffee!
Of course, I didn’t leave without grabbing a gluten free strawberry jam bar (which was absolutely excellent) and a sweatshirt! The staff was so kind here as well and gave me great recommendations on what to get and what they like from the menu!
The sign out front says "fine food" our conversation centered on it should be "fine, food" or more so "food that's fine". The three of us left with what felt like a pit of grease in our stomach. I had the spicy pasta and chicken, I couldn't finish because the pasta was in a pool at the bottom. The two burgers were much of the same.
Our server, Amilyn, was friendly and helpful as we navigated for gluten free needs. She's what got this to 3*

Excellent service. The food was awesome. Had the blackened shrimp with cheese grits. Done to perfection. Lots of vegetarian and gluten free options without sacrificing taste!
We tried going on a Saturday evening for dinner but the wait time was an hour and 30 minutes for a table inside and outside. They don’t take reservations, so be prepared to wait if you want to go on a Friday or Saturday night! So instead, we went the next day at 11am when they first opened. I’m so glad we did because we got a seat on the balcony overlooking the falls. Service was very friendly and accommodating! I got the veggie burger on a gluten free bun with a side of chips. My group tried the pretzel appetizer and they said it was amazing. The Mac and cheese was also a huge hit for my friends!
Celiac friendly
