Came in for the gluten free cheesesteak as I kept seeing it recommended online. It was a solid sandwich. The GF bread was the best part. The steak and cheese needed a little love, some seasoning, and a little more of it in the sandwich.
My absolute favorite restaurant! The most delicious food, the safest for people with celiac, the kindest staff, the best vibes, most amazing happy hour! I couldn’t recommend a place more!
We have been to Charlie's multiple times and always enjoyed delicious food, great drinks, and awesome service each time. I wanted to specifically highlight that this an amazing place to go for people with food allergies. We went a few weekends ago with my MIL and our family, and we had made a reservation ahead of time that noted my MIL's significant food allergies (corn, gluten, wheat, and dairy). Before we came, they did extra cleaning of the restaurant to avoid cross-contamination and management had briefed the team and our waiter on her allergies. When we arrived they had a special menu prepared for her with all the items she could eat so we didn't have to ask about every one. We ordered lots of food and we all loved our dishes. As each dish came out the waiter noted which had allergens and which didn't so we could easily make sure she got what she needed. She had no reactions and said it was one of the best meals she's ever had. Thank you so much Charlie's for making this so special for us! We will be coming back every time she visits.
They take allergies and celiac very seriously here. Although the menu is not marked, you can ask them what is gluten-free. I'm majority of the entrées are. And they have a dedicated fryer and some of the best fries we have ever had. It is one of our go to places and we feel very safe coming here. They've got great protocols in place.
Went on a Thursday night and sat in the patio. Music was playing. They have happy hour till 7. Great 3 dollar tacos. And a huge portion of the menu is dairy, gluten free or both. Really delicious food
My daughter and I loved everything about this restaurant. The service was terrific. The tables had beautiful, colorful coverings. The food was amazing and almost everything is gluten free! I had an arepa with chicken salad, it comes topped with creamy shredded gouda. She had the chicken empanadas, which were crispy and delicious. I can't wait to return and try more dishes.
Solid burger place and the ice cream is good too, especially the peanut butter flavor. Friendly staff, good service. Just remember: cash only (I can only imagine how many times a day the guy taking the order has to break the news to customers as they stare back with a confused look on their face). Gluten free buns are a big plus!
Luigi’s Pizza Fresca – A Fairmount Gem!
If you're in the Fairmount area, Luigi’s Pizza Fresca is a must-visit! I had the pleasure of trying their Fresca Works pizza as well as a custom-built gluten-free pizza, and I was blown away.
Gluten-free pizza can be hit or miss, but Luigi’s absolutely nails it. The crust is perfectly thin, yet strong enough to hold all the delicious cheese and sauce without getting soggy—a rare find. The Fresca Works pizza is also packed with flavor, a perfect choice if you want something hearty and balanced.
I've tried many gluten-free pizzas, and this one easily ranks among the best. Whether you're gluten-free or not, you’ll find something to love here. Highly recommend giving it a try!
Quaint little restaurant bar atmosphere. The menu is awesome, but very few options for a celiac gal like myself. The curry deviled eggs were amazing. Gluten is a whole vibe there, so those who can, enjoy!
Narrow restaurant with limited seating inside. Line moved quickly and the smell of grilled meat and onions made us hungry.
Ordered Sonny’s loaded cheesesteak with onions mushrooms and peppers with onion rings and fries. The sandwich was stuffed with meat and the provolone was gooey. Excellent sandwich and the rings were thick and crispy
My wife got the gluten free bun and it was excellent. Highly recommended.
We took our sandwiches to a nearby park to eat lunch. My daughter shared her pictures with me for this post
An upscale take on a typical Israeli hummus and skewers restaurant. You'll share a huge number of veggie apps for the table, with as many refills as you want, and then everyone orders a main dish (which you can also share). We were blown away by the fish, but underwhelmed but the cauliflower. Great attention to allergies and lots of gluten free options. Like the apps, dessert is also included with the main course. We ended up spending surprisingly less than expected.
Great service and food. The spicy guacamole is delicious and the dirty veg tacos are great! Our favorite by far though was the mango Panna cotta paired with passionfruit sorbet. Amazing! The outside seating area is lovely! they also have lots of gluten-free options!
Delicious breakfast sandwiches in a fast casual atmosphere. The eggs were fluffy and our sandwiches were ready quickly. Gluten free bread is available for a few extra dollars.
Sometimes, all ya really want is a good ol' gluten free breakfast sandwich, and thankfully, High Street delivers!
Apparently you can order a GF loaf ahead of time as well, in case you were wondering. The man working was super nice 🙂
Also very happy that they have delicious modification options, so my maple sausage, egg + cheese with avocado + caramelized onions was super flavorful and juuust a little bigger than I could finish.
Their pastries and refrigerated sides look super good; only one gf chocolate muffin available.
Small place with enough seating for 4-5 inside and 6 outside.
& the fresh OJ was super fresh!
Food is mediocre at best and definitely overpriced. $20 for TWO scallops. Salads were bland. Service was slow and food wasn’t served as the menu described. The ambiance is weird…it’s like this restaurant can’t decide who they want to be. One section is rustic, another contemporary, another modern farmhouse style, and last but not least, the kitchen area looks like a 1950’s diner. They up charge for everything. If you have a gluten allergy and ask for gluten free bread, be prepared to pay an extra $3 (even though regular bread is complimentary).
So delicious! I have a burger on a GF bun and fries from their dedicated fryer. The server was gluten free herself and was SO helpful. I can’t wait to go back!
This place is a Blast!!! So many games to choose from. It's great to run through a bunch of old classics, or to try a new game before you buy it. When we asked for a particular game they didn't have, they actually went next door to their game shop and opened a brand new game for us! The service really is top notch. And the food! So many amazing comfort food options, and with a huge vegan and gluten free selection too. The drinks are fantastic as well. It's a bit pricey but the fun is worth it and so we keep going back again and again
The online menu isn't super well-labeled, but the staff are extremely knowledgable! I have Celiac Disease, and I accidentally ordered a dish (online) that could not be made gluten-free. The server, Gabby, immediately called me to let me know and suggested a really wonderful gluten-free alternative. The food was ready super quickly and the staff was very friendly.
Ate here after the Liberty tour. Fantastic cheesesteak with an excellent gluten free bun, that believe it or not, was the same size as the regular bun. Loved the Old Bay fries as well. Recommend!!
A wide variety of food from Latin countries. However, I didn't see anything that reflected true Puerto Rican options. That was a disappointment. They have a few gluten free options and only one option for brunch. I'm not a fan of chipotle and wasn't in the mood for nachos for breakfast I just had rice and beans which were like warm not hot. It was almost cold. A huge turn off. I tried the yucca bowl that was good but had more cheese than yucca. The yucca fries were good but lacked a distinct flavor. I would have liked some adobo to give it more taste. Service was great. The environment is nice especially if you can eat outside. I will go back to try other things in the future and specify to warm the food.
We loved the vegan and gluten free options. Some items we didn't enjoy personally, but over all it waa good and a great experience. The canoli and the banana pudding were incredible. We are considering going back for the canoli.
The staff are very knowledgeable about gluten, cross contact, and celiac! (I’ve heard that the owner has celiac.) Great food, lots of GF options, the menu is well-labeled, and the atmosphere is great (indoor and outdoor seating)! They also have delicious GF desserts. This restaurant is my go-to.
Great Happy Hour deals. Wasn't any allergen labeling on the menu, but luckily our awesome server Olivia was GF herself and able to point a few options for me. Had the happy hour chicken satay skewers and they were great (apparently the fried rice could also be made gluten free if you ask)
Thank god for Nipotina! Ive been searching for a proper gluten free roll for a cheesesteak for some time now. Having Celiac can make finding sandwiches hard but this place makes it easy. They even have gluten free cutlets and a dedicated fryer for certain apps. Would recommend! Cant speak to the atmosphere of the place, got delivery!
Very cute place! We’ll definitely be returning. Fairly priced, great service, incredible food. The calamari were amazing as was the caprese salad. We did the tortelloni, ravioli, and mushroom risotto for dinner and all of us were speechless! You can tell how fresh the ingredients are and how thoughtfully they were prepared. If you have celiac disease/are gluten free (or any other dietary restriction), don’t hesitate to make the reservation here; they will take care of you. Thanks for a great experience!

During our recent visit to Pennsylvania, my partner and I had the pleasure of dining at a fantastic spot that truly exceeded expectations. For a very reasonable price of $59, we enjoyed a delicious spread, including tacos with a side of chili, two burgers with fries, tea, and two waters. One of the standout features was that everything on the menu could be made gluten-free, which was a huge plus for us. The buns on the burgers were especially delicious—crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
The atmosphere was just right—not too loud or crowded—creating a relaxed and welcoming vibe. The service was top-notch as well. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout the meal. A nice touch is the digital payment option on the receipt, where you can easily pay and leave a tip with a code.
Overall, the experience was fantastic, and we are definitely looking forward to coming back the next time we’re in the area. If you’re in PA and craving some great food in a comfortable setting, this place is highly recommended! Thank you for such a wonderful experience!
Loved it!! Everything we ordered was amazing especially the steak lamb small plate and the steak frites! Service was great and almost everything could be made gluten free.

We had a wonderful dinner at Via Locusta. We brought our toddler and baby with us and the staff were so accommodating. The food was delicious and they were able to accommodate my mom, who is gluten intolerant and vegetarian. We appreciated being able to enjoy the good vibes and delicious food here.
Went here mainly because they have gluten free buns available for the burgers. They have a good selection of burgers and sides. Overall it was a great atmosphere and one of the best places to eat in Manayunk. One area of improvement would be to put more toppings on the junkyard tots. They were room temperature when they came out, so the cheese was barely melted (although they still tasted delicious).
Amazing restaurant with gluten free options. The cocktails were delicious, and the atmosphere was unbeatable. I would recommend a reservation if you plan to go.
If it is a date night for 2, going forward I would have split the salad with my fiance, but we each got our own and it was delicious. We will be back again in the summer to see that menu.
