Vegan Scoops is a game-changer! The owner was incredibly friendly, generously offering samples to me, my husband, and our kids. We chose Chocolate Chip, Choquito, and Cookies—hands-down the best vegan ice cream I’ve ever had! Creamy, flavorful, and 100% plant-based, these scoops were a hit with the whole family. The owner’s passion for vegan, gluten-free treats made our visit special. A must-try in Orlando!

One of my favorite restaurants in Orlando. I have a gluten allergy and they always take wonderful care of me. Everything is delicious although I LOVE the crispy chicken. The salsa is also out of this world.
They purposely put a noodle in my Gluten Free steamed edamame after I chose it off of the gluten free menu online. I just got out of the hospital and had a major abdominal surgery. I literally just wanted to eat some safe real food without vomiting it back up or having full body pain and histamine reactions. I have celiac disease and a wheat allergy; I dont know if they thought it would be funny to hide a noodle in the GF edamame, but if I have to go back to the hospital, I promise it will not be funny for them. I have eaten here previously and been fine but the employees on shift today, 5/9/25, around noon did not take the gluten free protocols seriously.
This is the BEST priced pizza that's also really delicious! Some places trade one for the other. Either good price and meh pizza or great pizza at a meh price. I had a half and half 13-inch pizza for 9.96 before tax that was super tasty. I also tried their Stromboli that was super cheesy with light pepperoni, and it was great! They also have gluten-free options as well. The only downside is that there are no 2 liters for drinks, but its not a deal breaker considering all the beverage options they do have. You watch them make your food right in front of you, and the toppings are almost endless and moderately priced. The location is great. It's right near the water and close to the library and publix. There's even outdoor seating. Bathrooms are clean, and the staff is super friendly! I would definitely recommend anyone who even likes pizza a little bit to come visit here. This may be my favorite spot in Orlando!
This place was amazing! The food was amazingly fresh and flavorful!! (staff said it was house made pastas) very cute atmosphere as well and our server Nicole was very knowledgeable, cautious, and aware of making sure our allergies were taken care of:)) (gluten, dairy, tree nuts)
Have been to this place twice in the past 6 months and their service and food is the same. The food tastes really good, there are a lot of vegetarian options and even a gluten free menu. The drinks are reasonably priced. Yesterday, I was served by the waitress named Maya, even if it was closing time she was patient and friendly, explaining the vegetarian menu very clearly to me, so I don't end up eating any meat. Overall, I highly recommend this place if you're looking for tasty Asian street food.
Visited in November 2023 for dinner. Experience was fabulous overall. Drinks were solid, I had a couple sangria, and my wife had a variations a Moscow Mule.
Food, we had an Argentinian Chorizo appetizer (that came out after our dinners), that was very tasty. Wife had a trout dish with asparagus, she said it was VERY good. I had the lasagna, and i exaggerate NOT when I say it was the BEST lasagna I have ever had in my life!! It was rather moderately priced too, added bonus.
Restaurant is in a quiet residential area, lo-key unique surroundings. We actually could walk to restaurant from where we stayed, but it didn’t look like parking would be difficult.
Dessert was a very unique looking and tasting pumpkin crème brule. Wife really liked it, I was a bit ambivalent towards it.
Also, someone on staff has a good music ear because they play some solid music while you dine.
My wife is gluten free, and while they did have a couple of options on the menu, it would have been nice to see more.
Would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone.
I had the best experience, so safe for those with allergies! I have gluten and lactose intolerances. They have an extensive allergen chart online, as well the menu is clearly marked GF. Their own website says to please ask to speak to a manager about allergies, which I did. His name is Jerry and he kept an eye on my ticket himself, and knew everything about the menu. I had a mixed green salad with cilantro vinaigrette, salted baked potato (so good!), and a NY strip steak (one of the best I’ve ever had). Being lactose intolerant, the typical steak was not safe for me because of the marinade/shared wood grill, so Jerry had them sear my steak separately, simply seasoned, and finished in the convection oven. I was worried it wouldn’t be great, but I was so wrong! I will definitely be back. Sometimes the servers aren’t super knowledgeable, so always ask for the manager and you’ll be fine.
It's alright, pretty expensive for some average tacos. Not many gluten free or vegan options. "Asian fusion" part was alright I guess. Recommend getting a burrito if you want the price to be worth it. Yuca fries were dense, felt like they were just air fried from the freezer
Wow. We started our clean eating journey in February and while it's easy when I cook at home it can be challenging to eat out, especially at vegan places. Vegan restaurants are reliably dairy free, but their menus tend to have a lot of starches, gluten, sugar - all things I have to watch. The minute we walked in and Luc greeted us with her sunny smile we knew Earthy Picks was going to be different.
I told Luc what I needed and she recommended the All Day Breakfast Burrito as a bowl. I don't know how to describe just how incredibly delicious this dish is. The expertly massaged kale was covered with a generous amount of warm Colombian style tofu perico (scrambled with tomato & green onion). It was so flavorful and so eggy we had to remind ourselves it was vegan. Just delicious. As we dug further - past the yummy pink sauce, the warm tofu, the tender kale - we discovered a plentiful schmear of black bean puree. It was just fantastic.
Earthy Picks is now on our “must do” list for whenever we visit Orlando.
Our server Elvis was great and knowledgeable about the menu and allergies.
I do think it’s strange that gluten free noodles are offered but none of the broths are gluten free. At least one gluten free broth would suffice.
The only gluten free options are edamame and white rice.
If you have gluten free Japanese vodka, it’s possible to make a broth.
We visited this place for the first time yesterday and were pleasantly surprised to find all their gluten free options very well labeled inside their display case + when we asked we learned that all items not explicitly listing wheat in the description are gluten free - which is nearly everything. I only wish they'd mentioned that more clearly online, because we would have visited sooner. It's a rare gem to find so many options both vegan and gluten free, it was hard to choose!
We ordered the veggie & tofu pho, Banh Canh pho with udon noodles, Bun Bi amazing veggie vermicelli noodles, and Hu Tieu Xao sweet potato noodle stir fry + several items from the display case. Everything was beautifully made, fresh, delicious, and reasonably priced. We will definitely visit again!
This place was great! Vibes were there for sure. Had many milk alternatives for no extra cost, which is amazing. I had a con leche, with macadamia, from Milkademia, which is a favorite. The baristas were nice and knowledgeable. My husband had a siphon coffee, which was both interesting and delicious. He even got to choose between a variety of beans. Gluten-free and vegan options for food as well. Tons of local artists' art available for purchase. House made syrups were awesome and had a couple for sale. Craft sodas. Komcucha. Loose leaf teas. Hot cocoa. Food available from local Buttermilk Bakery. No one turned away for lack of funds. Everyone should be able to afford a good cup of coffee, just ask the staff. Please don't abuse this great system!

The food wasn’t bad. I had the duck, but man it was salty. She has the salmon and she said it was very good. Unfortunately they DO NOT have gluten free pasta. They’ll give you some options but then you get tasteless red potatoes. NO gluten free dessert. Their smoked old fashion was very good. It’d be nicer if the waiter would leave the lid on my drink that way, I would have had time to take a cool picture.
Drinks were amazing and cheap, and service was quick! Our server Meralyz was amazing - she not only noticed our burger wasn’t prepared right, but went ahead and took initiative to fix it, gave us a discount on the burger for the mistake, and even was thorough enough to notice we’d been upcharged for a gluten free bun when we didn’t get one, so she removed it without being asked. I’ve rarely had a server so attentive to detail - thank you, Meralyz! I wish I could have afforded to tip you $50!
Great place! I went this weekend and they were testing out a new gluten free crust - it was incredible!! The waitress was lovely in helping us with what was gluten free. The pistachio panacatta dessert was also so good - creamy and delicious!
My office recently had an event here with more than 25 people in attendance. The wait staff was excellent and patient with so many people. The food was DELICIOUS and the Margarita I had was also outstanding. The waiter took his time with each person, rather than working as quickly as possible, and incredibly, our food came out all at the same time and everyone loved it. My gluten allergy was carefully considered, and they have a gluten friendly menu which is always helpful.
I will absolutely be going back.
Really unique and fun ice cream spot. Came in for my daughter’s birthday and the staff was super friendly and attentive. They have a small but nice selection of arcade games and an air hockey table that are all free. We weren’t able to stay long but in the short time we were there the guy working checked on us multiple times to make sure we enjoyed our treats and we’re having fun.
Other than they have some vegan and gluten free options I don’t know what else to say other than I will definitely be back and hopefully with more time to spare.
Finally got to try the @throwsomeshadeorl it’s such a cute place. I love @eatdrinkthriveorl and was anxious to try. I prefer the food options for gluten free at Thrive but lamp and shade do have some decent options. Not noted on the menu but the server was very helpful. My hope is they can use a gf gochujang and make some more options like they have at thrive. 💕💕🙏🙏 So appreciated. Go check them out. We sat in the lounge area bc there were no tables available but it was quite comfy there! Good times. 💕
I put a pick up order in for 3:30pm and it was not made yet. The guy said he needed to make it so it’s crispy when I got it. The gluten free was very squishy. Waited until 3:50 for the pizza.
Super friendly. This is one of the only places I can go to get a beer that’s gluten free, which is a fun treat. Drinking an IPA like a normal human - a truly novel experience.
This was a suggestion when we asked where to go for celiac dishes.. and they did not disappoint. Shane was wonderful, and he was training a new server. Food came out in a timely manner, and the service was impeccable!! Great place will recommend !!!!
I have Celiac disease and was able to speak to the owner/chef. Everyone was so nice to help me know all of the ingredients. I was able to find many gluten free options. I ordered the pulled pork, cabbage slaw, and green beans with no corn bread. It was all DELICIOUS! Five stars for sure!
Empty yet you couldn’t get a table, their online menu showed lots of gluten free options but the servers were unaware of any. Avoid if you have allergies.
Great place to eat! you better get a reservation in advance because this place is popular! Friendly staff, solid menu, great cocktails. Several gluten free options.
