I’m tried all pizza places in Oceanside and Carlsbad and the pizza here is my favorite. The flavor is so good, it’s the best. We also ordered a gluten free/vegan crust and it’s the best I’ve ever had.
The chilequilles had outstanding flavor and freshly made tortilla chips. My wife likes chilequilles, and I don't usually prefer them because I don't like soggy chips... However, these chips seemed fresh and crispy despite being in the green sauce.
The Lemon Ricotta pancakes (opted for gluten free) were really good especially for being gluten free!
There are so many menu options that sounds so good that we definitely have to come back to try them all.
The service is great and fast.
We dined on the patio with our fur baby where they provided blankets and heaters so we were very comfortable out there.
Gregorio's is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, the cozy Italian villa ambiance set the perfect tone for a memorable evening. We visited on a Saturday night without a reservation and were pleasantly surprised to be seated immediately!
The handmade pizzas were a hit at our table — absolutely delicious — and the gluten-free pasta was hands down one of the best I've ever had. My husband loved the gnocchi. Everyone was raving about their meals!
Our server was an absolute queen — charismatic, attentive, and made our night so much fun. She truly elevated the whole experience. The wine selection was fantastic as well, perfectly complementing the flavorful dishes.
If you're craving authentic Italian cuisine with great vibes and exceptional service, Gregorio's is the place to go! Can't wait to return.
We loved coming here and eating here until today. Was told the gluten free bun had no egg, after the cashier went to the back and checked. Took it home, ate half of it, got a stomach ache, and then called to find out that the buns actually had egg whites. The response I got was that they had just switched over to using new buns, and the old ones didn’t have egg in it. All I was told after that was “my apologies” and the phone hung up. Allergies are clearly not taken seriously.
I was told the food and shakes are terrific!
Meh.
Service was great, but I wasn't impressed by the burgers, and the fries are not recommended.
Pricey for the quality. They offer a gluten-free (GF) bun, which is one reason for our visit, but it's a big, dry bun that I can't recommend.
We live nearby, but probably won't frequent this place.
45 min wait, got to talk to 2 other travelers from AZ. Heard there story while at a picnic table that we shared. Beer was awesome, pizza was worth the wait! Well done! Great experience :) plus they have gluten free!
This place used to be good. Unfortunately a friend of mine came in 6 months ago with me and this restaurant messed up on my gluten free pizza 3x in a row and at the time i was sick with pneumonia and couldn’t talk. My friend was defending me of the food not being made right and unfortunately the restaurant will not serve my friend or i anymore. Somewhere in the conversation it came out that my last name is Russian Jewish , what a shame this location is antisemitic , my fear is for my kids sports teams that frequent the location. …. What a shame ,
My server, Juliane, was so attentive and gave us such amazing service. As someone who has a gluten allergy, she paid extra attention to how my food was prepared. She truly deserves a raise!
264 Fresco is an absolute gem! We had the pleasure of sitting upstairs on the deck, and the views of the ocean were simply breathtaking. The ambiance was perfect—elegant, bright, and inviting, with a mix of stylish and homey accents that made us feel right at home. The service was impeccable, with the staff being attentive and knowledgeable in gluten free options, making our experience even more special.
The food was outstanding! As an Italian restaurant, Fresco 264 truly knows how to deliver. The wood-fired dishes were bursting with flavor! We also had a fantastic selection of appetizers, try the beef carpaccio and the meatballs! The drinks were on point, with a great variety of options to choose from.
Whether you're looking for a cozy night out or a special occasion, Fresco 264 is the place to go. A note for families, the deck is always 21+ highly recommend!
We are staying at a local hotel evacuated from the airport fire. We hadn't eaten much in 48 hours and needed something good. Also having diet restrictions ( my husband and I are Gluten free) we are cautious about where we eat. This place was clean, inviting, and had gluten free options. We got the meat lovers pizza and the meatsauce gluten free pasta. I'm a baker/cook for 30 plus yrs and this place did not disappoint! Thank you for a delicious meal and friendly service 💜 you guys rocked it!
Every time I go to Urban Plates I leave extremely satisfied with the food and the service! Delicious healthy food and I soooo appreciate that they label their menu items (gluten free, vegan , etc. for us people who cannot eat certain things).
The beet salad with salmon is my favorite!
We came for Christmas Eve dinner which was a prefix menu. There were several choices per course with gluten free and vegetarian options. The food, drinks, and service were excellent. It's a hotel restaurant that is off the lobby so the ambiance doesn't quite match the quality of everything else but it didn't detract from our experience.
"Wow, just wow. We went to Vigilucci's while we were visiting family, and it was an amazing dining experience. From the moment we walked, the ambience was elevated.
The food? Forget about it. I had the risotto, which is gluten free, and it was clear it was homemade – like, seriously delicious. My son went for a steak, and it came out very undercooked so we unfortunately had to send it back. My husband had the sea scallops and raved about it all night.
The view? Wow again. We timed it perfectly for sunset, and watching the sun dip into the ocean while we ate was just magical.
It wasn't stuffy or anything, even though it's clearly a fancy place. It just felt…comfortable and celebratory. You can tell they really care about the little things, like how the table was set and how attentive our server was.
I also heard they're adding a new patio next year with even better ocean views, as if it could get any better. If you're looking for a place to make a special memory, or just want an amazing meal with a killer view, you HAVE to try Vigilucci's!
I love this place and the food actually is really good. But it’s SO freaking expensive. I came here for lunch with my five-year-old and I got a bowl of lobster bisque and a chicken Caesar salad with gluten-free bread and an iced tea. With tip it was $64! That’s just crazy. I feel like I got ripped off.
I recently planned a bachelorette trip and made a reservation for a sunset dinner at Chandler’s Oceanfront Dining. Unfortunately, the experience fell short of expectations, especially given the price point.
From the start, communication was a struggle. It took weeks to receive responses from their team, which should have been my first red flag. Despite emailing multiple times about dietary restrictions, our waitress had no record of it. We had gluten-free guests, including the bride, and when she requested a side of fries (as there were no gluten-free starters available), they arrived breaded—with gluten-containing ingredients. A server at a restaurant of this caliber should be aware of allergens and dietary concerns, or at the very least, be willing to check and inform the guest.
Beyond that, our waitress seemed irritated by simple requests, which made the experience feel unwelcoming. For the amount of money spent, I expected a higher level of professionalism and attention to detail. While the oceanfront view is beautiful, the poor service and lack of care for dietary needs left us disappointed. I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant for special occasions.
It was our first time eating here and we sat at the bar. There was a graduation party going on and live music inside. The music was good, but a little loud inside for how small the restaurant was. It took forever for us to be greeted or asked for drinks at the bar. They weren’t busy either. We waited a good 15 minutes before we ordered our drinks. We knew what we wanted to eat by that time, so we ordered food as well. When our food finally came out, my order was wrong. I have a gluten sensitivity and ordered GF pasta. The pasta came out and I knew right away it wasn’t GF. It took a few minutes to get the bartenders attention. I ended up grabbing someone else to ask for them to fix my order. It came out and my husband was halfway done with his meal at that point. The food was good, tho. We asked for our check and weren’t even compensated for the wrong meal. Can’t say I was impressed with the service. Not sure if we will be back.
Service was 10/10, food was delicious, and it was an all around great experience. The server even took into account our gluten free allergies and was very understanding. I 100% recommend this restaurant.
They serve a handmade Gluten free rigatoni made with spinach and lentil. It has a great taste but it is a strong spinach. It worked perfect with the sausage I added to it.
The server was great and very friendly. The location is a bit hidden in the top back of a parking lot. But that didn't hinder the restaurant from filling up by 6pm on a weekday! The owner is Italian, the only downside, no gluten free dessert! :(
The food was gourmet style delicious 🤗 the beer selection was a full selection for everyone's needs, plenty of gluten free drink options. We will go again
First of all, the newly renovated restaurant is stunning. Everything looks really high-end and modern without being pretentious. Perfect for a golf club-type dining experience.
The lunch menu is a bit limited but everything we had was delightful. The salmon was super tender and moist, the fish tacos were yummy, and the wagyu burger and ahi sandwiches were great. The spicy ketchup was a notable hit too. The cherry pie looked really good too. And prices were very fair for the quality and portions. The new chef seems great and the menu was well-balanced and lots of reasonably healthy options. And it’s an easy menu for people with gluten allergies.
The service was spotty. Our main server was not around much and so 3 other servers ended up rotating through our table during service to both serve dishes and clear plates. And drinks were rarely refilled even if empty for a long while. Not a big deal to me personally, but for a practically empty restaurant at lunch and at this price point, that was a tad disappointing. However, all the staff were very friendly and welcoming, especially the hostess.
Our son has horrible allergies to wheat and dairy. We are able to come here and have gluten free options that the staff ensures is safe for our son. It’s priceless knowing he’s safe and your staff truly cares!
SKC is a nice place to stop for breakfast if you have your dogs with you and are looking for a gluten-free meal.
Our short rib and hashbrown cakes was very good, perfectly flavored on the mild-side, and a filling portion to enjoy.
Our Monterey omelet was missing something, we cannot figure out what should be added or left out. The bacon was great, but we lost the rest of the flavoring.
Decent ramen for gluten free noodles...not great if you have celiac as most of the ramen broths have soy in them, to my understanding. They do have menu items like sushi so maybe other options. Great service and atmosphere though. Warning...the prices are a little steep, you might BeShocked about them. Still overall good experience and ambiance, didn't get her name but had a superstar server... attentive and on her game...who was training another guy who was also great.
Great gluten free choices and amazing poke salad! The restaurant is also family friendly. The kids really enjoyed their lunches. Everyone enjoyed their meals because of the variety of sushi, grilled, salad and noodle options.
The best location around (I’ve been to at least 3 other nearby locations). They’re super good about ensuring gluten allergies are handled appropriately (alerting the kitchen and changing gloves) and their food is fresh and isn’t over cooked.
Great location, my family had been coming here upon arrival in Carlsbad for 18 years. But this was the first time they wouldn't allow a dietary restricted adult to order a kids meals. Asked for the manager to see if we could have an exception no one came out. Waitress was rude about it, a very noticeable eye roll was given to me when i asked to substitute an item to a gluten free item. Finally a nice gentleman with a cute accent helped me get some food. But the rest of the crew on a Sunday night was horriable and didnt care about helping. It's sad to not get the customer service we've had for the last 10+ years. DO NOT GO IF YOU NEED ANYTHING SPECIAL, not a gluten free friendly place or staff
Usually Crust makes the best gluten free pizza, Not last night. Seems they were short of people so it looks like they had someone who never made pizza before make it... It was the worst I have ever seen or tasted. Opening the box all I saw was a flood of cheese. I could not even see the pizza. If this is what they do just to get your money, I will not dine there again. Who knows what they may do next.
Unassuming crepe and fro-yo shop...had been in a few times and didn't realize we were missing out! We had a vegan and gluten free Nutella, blueberry and lemon crepe and planned to take it to go but "had a bite first" and ended up eating the whole thing!
I love me some jersey mike's but this location is NOT IT. Wonder who owns this & if they give a you know what?? There is always an issue, staff unexplainably lacks general knowledge, according to employee they ran out of gluten free bread a while ago yet did not thaw the frozen stack in the back. Night & day from other locations we prefer.
