Foo Dog has been my favorite for years for gluten free food deliciousness. As someone with celiac, this place is a dream come true. Everything is so flavorful and unique from anything else around Jax. I try a new dish or app every time and I’m never disappointed. I love introducing this place to others. My only complaint is that wish I could buy their sauces and vegan popcorn by the gallon!

I'm not a big chain restaurant fan, however, True Food kitchen is an exception. It really is whole food. I appreciate that there are several vegan and gluten-free options. The butternut squash soup and the hot tulsi ginger and tea are somethings I always look forward to.

Tiffany Sweeney

Our order was ready and the food was good! Our burgers were not well done as we had requested BUT the staff was great and took care of it right away! That always makes up for any errors in my book! We appreciate the high quality food and gluten free and vegetarian options.

The Kings Sandwich was most definitely my favorite! It’s a for sure crowd pleaser and a taste of everything! Fries come out hot, fresh, seasoned well, and crispy! Both the regular and the waffle cut sweet potato fries. Sauces were on the table to try at your discretion and the sides are mostly included in everything. The lean brisket was good and next time I’d like to get it more fatty. All the meats and all the sauces (minus one) were gluten free. Come in between 3-6pm for happy hour 10 for 10 wings. I had to get some to go and I was told that they DON’T disappoint! Try it and be satisfied! You can trust me b/c I DON’T play about my food!!!!

I have reviewed this exact location before and gave it five stars but I need to update it. It’s only worth three. Food wasn’t nearly half as good as it was last time. The sausage was dried out. The pancakes were average. I got the peach ones that were on special this month. My wife had gluten pre-pancakes, which were OK for gluten-free. Let’s be real here. But the waiter was rude. He was normally rude to us. He was rude to other people and they may be shortstaffed, but there’s no excuse to treat people like that. They need to be knocked down a notch accordingly.

Wings were a little under done but the pizza was right on. My wife has celiac disease and they offer a gluten free pizza as well. Nice job V Pizza! We love it!

Marc Sing

Great place as always. A little sad they don’t have a dedicated area to cook for gluten free as my wife has celiac. Flavors were great and price is right!

April Roberts

I have a gluten intolerance and I was pleased with the options at Maggiano’s. Noah was our server and he did an outstanding job taking care of us. The chef came over to our table to answer any questions about my food options. My husband and I enjoyed our meal.

Tonight, my party at 4 went to Rodrigo's Craft Pizza for dinner. Our experience was nothing short of outstanding. My daughter ordered a gluten-free calzone. (If you've ever made gluten-free anything, you know that it's tricky, at best.) Rodrigo's nailed the GF recipe without a doubt. It was extremely good. We also ordered two Margaritas and the Georgio. The pizza crust was perfect, crispy, and crunchy. All the ingredients were fresh and not overwhelming. My compliments to the kitchen. They know what they're doing. As a bonus, I was able to speak to the owner and to the person making the pizzas. These guys are a class act... personable and knowledgeable. The crowd was buzzing with excitement, and there was only one table unoccupied. The overall experience was very pleasant. I'll be back, that's for sure. (Maybe even tomorrow) I love pizza, and if you do too, I highly recommend this pizzeria. You won't be disappointed.

I like that they have gluten free crust. And they ask if they need to change gloves to avoid cross contamination.

Kreston lee

Great views of the water, the fried shrimp and cod were great and the halibut and salmon were perfect. Knowledgeable staff for food allergies. A family member has Celiac and our server talked through cross contamination and ingredient concerns. The gluten free fried batter is one of the best we have had. Above and beyond service: my toddler dropped a toy and a staff member picked it up before I could see where it went.

Caroline Clements

Very happy to have stumbled upon this gem. We visited after the GA FL Game & were sat immediately after given options for different tables. We ordered and our drinks and food were brought out quickly and fresh. I have celiac (non-reactive) and had a fantastic gluten free pizza. I got the Laura and it was delicious. Others in my party got a meat lovers pizza & sandwiches and all were great. We were checked on frequently and offered to go drinks. All around fantastic & we hope to be back next year.

BB's is consistently exceptional. I have never had anything short of an amazing experience at this restaurant. The food is always outstanding, with each dish hitting the mark. The service is top-notch, and the atmosphere creates the perfect setting for a delightful brunch, lunch, or dinner experience. Let's talk about their desserts – they are absolute dream-inducers. On two separate Sundays, I invited friends to join me for lunch after Sunday service, introducing them to BB's for the first time. Without fail, each person left impressed and became a lifelong customer. Even I wonder if I'll be included in their return visits, as BB's continues to live up to its reputation. As someone who requires gluten-free options, I am delighted that BB's offers an array of choices for me. On this visit, I relished the warm goat salad without the croutons, a truly delicious dish. In the past, I have also enjoyed their dangerously good gluten-free pizza. But the highlight was the GF caramel brownie, served with a generous scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. I attempted to practice self-control and only eat half, but the treat was too irresistible to resist. Before I knew it, I had devoured the entire bowl. So, a piece of advice: if you plan to indulge in their desserts, do so with caution. One bite or half of a serving will surely not be enough once you start. In addition to their delectable menu, BB's boasts a full bar and a skilled bartender who concocts drinks that are simply exceptional. The overall experience at BB's is perfect for a girls' night out, a romantic date night, or even a small party celebration. Just be mindful of indulging too much, as stopping yourself from eating the entire dessert might prove to be a challenge. I highly recommend BB's as a dining destination. The consistently great food, excellent service, and overall ambiance make it an ideal choice for any occasion. But I must warn you, proceed with caution – the temptations at BB's can be quite irresistible!

My Mom and I love coming to Vale Foods!! They have many gluten and dairy free options!! My favorite bowl is sweet potato noodles, broccoli sweet potatoes, vale sauce, avocado, and vale sauce!! The employees are so friendly and nice!!

Elizabeth Riegel

🍕 The Loop in San Marco is like stepping into a culinary time loop of awesome vibes and gluten-free pizza perfection. The atmosphere? Cooler than a polar bear's toenails (in a good way). And let's talk about that GF pizza—it's not just good, it's "I'd fight a velociraptor for the last slice" good. The employees? They're nicer than a grandma on Christmas morning. Seriously, they make you feel like you've just found the pizza oasis in a desert of ordinary eateries. Next time you're in Jax, skip the norm and loop into The Loop—you won't regret it!

Jeanne Sutton

Corn tortillas FTW. As a gluten free person, it was great to see that corn tortillas were everywhere on the menu. I had a chicken quesadilla and the Al Pastor taco. Everything was delicious 😋 I started with a Classic Margarita and it was meh so the next round I got the Sangrarita which was lovely.

Brian Walsh

They have the best eggs Benedict around! Everything I've tried is amazing. I was shocked that I think I liked their gluten free pancakes better than their regular ones!

Abby Landreth

Charles is amazing!!! He took care of my allergies as well as my mother’s(gluten&dairy)! He is upbeat and was always super happy when he checked on us!! Woo! Thank you so much!! Also, the chips are gluten safe!

Courtney Rhodes

We hired Biscottis for our brunch wedding and everything was perfect! The food was amazing and hot! They handled our small 42 person wedding with ease. They easily accommodated our vegan, gluten free guests and they made sure we got all our leftovers. We were able to enjoy it the next day with some of our out of town guests before they left! It was great! My only comment would be there were some times that the buffet wasn't being managed well (according to our planner having to step in a few times). Other than that we felt like they were the perfect option for our brunch wedding.

First off, always exceptional service, no matter who is running the register. They seem excited to be at work, happy to share their knowledge of the menu and work hard to make sure exactly what you want. Parking can be an issue, so if you’re meeting someone you may want to show up a little early because there will be parking, but it may not be right in front or behind the storefront. Don’t let that scare you, there is plenty of parking in that area, just not in front of The King. But you really want to know about the food: Plantains – really good but a very small portion for an appetizer but the sauce with it is AMAZING. Fried Cheese - bigger portion but served with the same amazing sauce. Rice bowl - rice bowls are similar to the sandwiches, just without the bread. So if you’re gluten-free, rice bowls are a good option. Pork sandwich - this is what they do best, juicy marinated pork, serve with pickled onions, and fresh bread is an absolute fantastic sandwich. I don’t know why I don’t head over to Chancho King more, well I do know because it is not near my work anymore. When I have time and don’t mind driving a little bit, The King is where to go

I fell in love with both the neighborhood and the restaurant. Their food is so good, and I can order almost anything I like due to the gluten free friendly substitutions. Instead of breaded chickun they grilled my soy curls unbreaded, substituted their house patty that has gluten for a Beyond burger, and served me both on GF buns. I was ecstatic!!! A restaurant where I can enjoy Plant-Based Comfort Food, then enjoy the fantastic nearby shops (I’ll share in upcoming posts) is everything my heart desires. 🥰 FYI: I caution anyone with Celiac’s disease that cross contamination is possible, and the fryer/grill are shared. Gluten Free Fried Pickles: This was the #1 reason I wanted to eat here. Yes, their menu is amazing, but I wasn’t sure I could enjoy much even with a gluten free bun as an option. However, fried pickles have long been a favorite that I haven’t enjoyed in almost a decade, and this is the first restaurant I’ve seen that has them. They were so good, I would order them, even if they didn’t have anything else I could eat. But, thankfully, they do! I had these as a side for the Buffalo Ranch Chickun, specifically prepared to be gluten friendly, per my request. It was absolutely delicious, and I cannot wait to eat it again! I'm also looking forward to another Black Cherry Tarragon Stubborn Soda because it was delicious. Murray Hillbilly has a laid-back atmosphere with books to read and games to play while you wait for your food. There’s even a small assortment of items to buy including t-shirts, hand-crafted hats, and a variety of eco-friendly items. I had to try on the crochet hats. They were absolutely adorable, and for those who don’t know I used to not be able to wear hats because I had too much hair. 😆 I loved that each one was different not just in color but in style, and it was neat to see how they each looked on me. Perhaps next time I’ll leave with one.

Melissa Davis

Excellent meal as always. Very accommodating towards gluten free. Our waiter was wonderful. Helped my mom pick out the perfect sandwich. Plenty of meat on our sandwiches, too. We had a corner table, nice and clean. Love the bakery selection l and vintage candies. Always a great time here.

Julie Wilhite

One of my favorite places to go to eat!! They have many gluten free options and the bread is actually just cheese and is gluten free as well! Service is always top notch and everyone I've ever spoke with there has been extremely helpful and absolutely wonderful! My favorite place to eat in Jacksonville!

Jimmy Tanner

We love the old ice cream parlor feel and the friendly faces . They have original flavors along with a wide variety of dairy free, sugar-free, and gluten-free, plus soft serve you will definitely find several favorites that will keep you coming back for more. Come support this small business.

Angel n

Prices are a bit high but they had a gluten-free menu. My dad says crab cakes had way too much breading and he could not taste the crab at all.

Susan Weakley

We often come here if we want delicious food in an unhurried atmosphere. Great drinks from teas and coffee drinks to mimosas. Lots of tables and study/chat areas inside and out. They usually have GF baked goods(at least one option) and they have gluten free options on the menu.

Annette Harris

We stopped by another Broken Egg Café on a whim one morning. My gluten-free pancakes were very light and fluffy; I would definitely order those again. The sausage and eggs were also very tasty. However, the city grits were quite loose and more watery than I expected, so I probably wouldn’t choose those again. We also tried the spiked coffee, which was a bit strong; I think a little less alcohol would have improved it, as it was barely drinkable. We mentioned this to the waitress, and she noted that she tends to pour heavily, so if you enjoy a stronger drink, the spiked coffee might be for you. All in all, it was a good breakfast for a quick bite.

Robert Sanders

My go to when me and my wife cant decide on what we want. If you need gluten-free noodles, use the pad thai noodles.

LilMissPerfct Dessie

It was the best BlackBerry jam and cheese danish ive ever had and my mom couldn't stop raving about her gluten free vegan orange muffin.

Natalie Densmore

My husband has celiac and Tazikis is very accommodating. They've even called to clarify my order to make sure they were preparing it safely. The food is fresh and delicious as well! Highly recommend.

Eva Pitsoulakis

This Thai restaurant was fantastic! I ordered the pad thai & we shared fried tofu squares and spring rolls with peanut sauce. Everything was full of flavor & they were super accommodating to my gluten and dairy allergies.

Ashlyn Rose

great pizza reminds me of new york pizza!!!! i have celiac so their gluten free pizza is amazing every time!!!!!! service is phenomenal and super fast.

Izzie Titberidze

The food was incredibly delicious. I'm gluten-free, so I got a potato bowl. You can build your own breakfast and add whatever you'd like. They do not have gluten-free bread on the menu, but their bowls were much better than a sandwich. Coffee was delicious, too.

Diana Ramos

Was able to get a gluten-free dairy free pizza that was really good. Great service, nice vibe.

Caryn Jones

It's rare for upscale restaurants to offer a designated gluten-free menu. I was pleasantly surprised that Iguana on Park not only has a GF menu and the choices are absolutely delicious!

Rachel Goodman

Gluten free burgers

Stephanie Fahey

Love me some Culver’s butter burger and fries! Always get the honey mustard to dip them in and they also have gluten free buns that are amazing!

Antonio Arriaga

Brooklyn was our server. She was incredible. Knowledgeable on the menu and very quick to recommend alternatives for my wife who has celiacs disease.

Shari Mohrman

Probably some of the yummiest ice cream I’ve ever eaten! Maybe because are grass fed and genuinely happy. We enjoyed butter pecan and cookies and cream in a waffle cone. Plentiful in the pecans and generous with the cookies! We detected cinnamon in the waffle cone, we decided the cone smelled and tasted a bit like a snicker doodle. Millie’s is relatively small and parking is not easy as it located downtown San Marco but that the joy of ice cream…walking around, talking and enjoying the moments. The staff were very friendly. Enjoy pints, cold brews, floats, sundaes, shakes and gelato. Vegan, gluten and dairy free options.

Lauren Hatcher

We came in with a group of 5 adults and 3 kids and were welcomed and seated right away. Our server Emma took great care of our group and went the extra mile for one of our group with gluten intolerance. Excellent service and food!

Karissa Hagemeister

💙 I ate at the Blue Orchid Thai restaurant for the first time this past week with my friend. It captures your attention right away with its beautiful interior and large outdoor eating porch. We decided to sit outside because the weather was so nice. I ordered my fav Thai dish, Drunken Noodles. They are great about taking care of gluten allergies there and the dish tasted very fresh and delicious. My friend got the yellow curry and she loved it. If you love Thai food definitely go The ambiance, food and location are amazing 🤩

Amanda Suter

Mia was especially helpful when we were choosing our beverages. She also gave a great gluten free option!

Alexis Britt

Our second visit. We drive an hour to come eat here. We love the menu has gluten free and dairy free options. I have celiacs disease (severe gluten allergy) and a dairy allergy. The food is absolutely delicious and the atmosphere is great. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable of the menu.

Madelyn Rubin

We have been to Mandolas at least three times. The first time I ordered the eggplant sandwich but the eggplant was not well done. They gave me a free meal for it. The next time the eggplant was excellent. The last time, yesterday, I ordered spaghetti, gluten-free, well done. It was not well done so I returned it and they offered chicken with vegetables. The chicken was tasty but dry and tough. When I told one manager, he disappeared. The other manager was kind enough to give us our entire meals for free, however I only wanted consideration for my meal, not for my husband's meal. He was happy with his. The place is always full during lunch and dinner so I'm sure a lot of people are happy with their food. Being gluten free, it's more challenging for me to get a good meal.

Tonya Deines

Kailene was an excellent server. I'm gluten free, can't have cream sauce or lemon and she helped us find something great to eat. We have a hard time deciding what to eat and she was patient with us so we could take our time deciding without feeling pressured. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Madison Smith

Dropped in for lunch after flying into Jax, and we had a great time. Our server (Brandon) went above and beyond to help my mom navigate the menu with her allergies. Gluten and dairy allergies are a tough combo, but he found something that worked for her. Food was fresh and came out quick. Beer was solid, and there was plenty of options to choose from. Thanks Brandon for starting our vacation off on the right foot!!

Melanie Van Ert

Staff was rude when cross contamination of gluten was explained to them. Said "Well I'm not wasting a gluten free wrap." And placed another GF tortilla on a contaminated hot press. If you have allergies beware, they don't seem to be trained on how to handle them.

Kirsten Peterson

This is one of those places that becomes a go-to spot. The food was excellent, and the service was accommodating and so friendly! The manager was very kind. I love that they had gluten free indications on the menu, also.
