Top 50 Gluten-Free Pet-Friendly Spots to Explore in Arlington

Maria Bliznetsova

One of my absolute favourite to go places for breakfast/lunch! I tried almost everything on the menu and quality of food is excellent! Everyone can find something, they have vegan and gluten free options too. But for me, Huevos Rancheros, Summer Cod, Cobb Salad and peach pie are top choices! New location in Arlington also has a big garage parking and easy access as well.

As always, my gluten free vegan pizza was fantastic!!

Favorite lunch spot for bbq. Great gluten free menu and service has always been good.

The food was very tasty. However, I have celiac and despite ordering a gluten free dish and informing the waiter of my allergy, I got sick and believe my food had some cross contamination.

I am a regular Korean BBQ eater. Maybe it's not entirely fair to compare Japanese BBQ to Korean, I know different countries entirely, however, being in Northern Virginia it is hard not to compare a similar concept to KBBQ. The atmosphere is great, the meat was delicious, the sides lacked any flavor because they were just regular veggies (corn, not cheese corn, zucchini and cremini mushrooms), it came with a salad and miso that were flavorful. We ordered the value meal for 2 people with one cocktail $14 and a diet coke the total was $106, after tipping 22% I spent $130.. The meat was perfectly marinated and the quality was high, however the portions were insanely SMALL. I left hungry and wishing I went to Kbbq instead but it was an experience. I also noticed all the marinades and sauces were sweet- the sauces on the table were Ponzu, Sweet Soy Sauce and a Spicy Sauce that was also sweet, I found myself wishing for a more savory sauce to balance out all the sweetness. Our server was super friendly and attentive. For example I had taken the lemon from my gfs cocktail and put it in my diet coke, our server noticed and without me saying anything brought me a refill diet coke with a lemon (this didn't go unnoticed!). I personally don't see myself coming back but glad I gave it a try. Oh and I will add that everything we ordered was gluten and dairy free naturally so that was a huge plus.

The best gluten free chicken sandwich I’ve had. A little serving of fries but overall so DELICIOUS

I had dinner at True Food and it was excellent. Lots of menu variety for gluten free and vegan individuals. Our meatloaf (non gluten free) and burger were tasty, prepared exactly the way we requested. The service and ambience was outstanding. When you go, ask for Fernanda to be your waitress. She’s very customer oriented and kind. Emerson the Manager brought out our food and was very professional and helpful. True Food is a great place to eat!

Goodness. This place is cute! I wanted to come back for wine! Love the atmosphere. I was so pleased to see that gluten free options were available and we tried them all. We did not enjoy them at all. The blueberry buckwheat muffin was so buckwheat forward, the lemon blueberry scone was overpowered by lemon extract (lemon zest would have been better)…no thank you. We are a celiac household so we definitely understand how challenging finding good gluten free flour blends can be. Appreciate the effort and love the cute place.

Gabi was wonderful. Great service and cared about my celiac disease and dairy free .

Kash Arora

I got the lamb hash but gluten free and it was so warm and comforting. Amazing gluten free options, quick service and great options. There might be a line to order but moves pretty quickly!

Renuka C

Terrific food and great service! A go-to for lunch get togethers. LOVE the lunch specials and food is spiced just right. Lots of gluten free options that are clearly marked. DELICIOUS and reasonably priced. Nice ambiance too. Best Thai food around.

We love sushi and chose this place based on the reviews we read. Initially, we sat inside, but we requested to move outside because it was too loud. Although it was a bit dark and hot, we still enjoyed our meal. Everything we ordered was delicious, and the service was excellent; they accommodated all the changes we requested for our meals. It's also worth mentioning that they have a lot of gluten-free options, which is very important for us.

Cozy atmosphere with great food and service. I was excited to see they had a lot of dairy-free and gluten-free options! Seating is a little chaotic so be prepared to be flexible. Great as a working space, too.

Had a fabulous meal here, a quick stop on the way to the airport. The ramen was great and the Jinya bun was a perfect appetizer. My server, Rawles, was so pleasant and helpful and walked me through the menu since it was my first time here. All the staff were extremely polite and gracious and I would definitely recommend this place for a larger group. Gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian options are so nice to see on a menu, even if I didn't take advantage of them this first time.

A Top 5-Star Brunch Experience at Sabores! A group of us organized a birthday brunch for a friend at Sabores, and it was an amazing experience! With a large party of 20, the Sabores team made it all feel effortless, allowing us to fully enjoy the celebration. As someone with celiac disease, dining out can be challenging, but Alex, Carlos, and Ernesto went out of their way to make sure I felt safe and included. They personally prepared a special dish for me—a perfectly cooked steak with a fresh salad—taking every precaution to prevent cross-contamination. They even brought my plate out separately, showing incredible attention to detail. Beyond that, my friends couldn’t stop talking about how delicious the food was. Everything was beautifully prepared, full of flavor, and served with great attention. The staff was attentive, kind, and efficient, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that made the celebration even more special. Sabores offers gluten-free options on their menu, and they are very careful if you let them know about any allergies or dietary restrictions to ensure no cross-contamination. If you’re looking for a place with great food, excellent service, and a fun, inviting vibe, Sabores is definitely worth a visit! Highly recommended!

Great place if you need a gluten free grilled chicken sandwich. Highly recommend!

Trix Lee-Rainwater

The pita bread for appetizers was light and soft. Hummus trio was perfect, especially the spicy hummus. Kibbeh was very filling so maybe don't order it if you plan to order a full entree as well. I especially enjoyed my mouzat (slow cooked lamb leg with spiced rice). It was a lovely meal. Great service, the place is huge so there were many available seats, good food. They have lots of vegetarian and gluten free options. Highly recommended.

Cannot speak more highly of Mejana. Ordered from them for my office’s staff lunch and there were options for everyone: vegetarian, gluten free, and meat. Prices are reasonable and portions are large. Staff is incredibly kind. Ordered from Grubhub for delivery, delivery was never confirmed by the 3rd party service, called the restaurant and they immediately said, “no worries, we will get to cooking and wait for the order to come in and call you when the order comes through and if a driver was assigned.” Mind you, this was Grubhub’s fault, not the restaurant! The hostess asked me to text them my order and texted me when it was ready since Grubhub wasn’t communicating with me. You can’t beat this kind of customer service. Love supporting this local, small-biz!

Delicious, juicy burgers our whole family enjoyed! We were especially happy they offered a gluten free bun for my daughter who needs GF options. Definitely recommend!

Logan Witham

The food was so delicious!! They had Gluten free options and they were able to accommodate me. They have so many options for people!! Just a great place to eat!

Update: April 2024 Ordered burgers on Saturday noon. Burgers were dry with very little sauce on it. Bun was not toasted. We were disappointed. It seems they cannot maintain the quality in busy noon time. Update: April 2024 We went here again on Saturday. Customization order was followed. Burgers were delicious. I changed the review to 5 stars. Original: We received the wrong order today, but the staff member was kind and quickly remade a burger for us. I had ordered a burger with a gluten-free bun, plus added tomato and pickles. Later, we noticed the tomato and pickles were missing. Since the gluten-free bun looks very similar to the regular bun, we began to suspect that we might’ve received the wrong bun as well. It seems likely that the customizations were completely overlooked. If you have dietary restrictions like gluten intolerance, I recommend adding multiple customizations. That way, it’s easier to tell whether the kitchen followed your request and helps verify the order more clearly.

Absolutely delicious and many gluten free options (all 3 of the BBQ sauces are GF). I had the meat sampler with sides of collard greens and Mexican street corn plus deviled eggs as a starter - everything was amazing!

Chris Alex

Solid pizza. We waited for it and ate it there at the only seating inside, a small window bar. Came out super hot. Would like to see a personal size pizza with normal dough, not just gluten free or cauliflower crust as they have now. A few spots out front but mainly street parking only. We had to park a block away at 2 pm on a Saturday. The cheese was good and there was a solid amount of pepperoni. The crust was also good and I liked the sauce. Worth stopping by.

Yummy! There is a separate Gluten Free menu but it is a bit bare. More GF options, more things made w tamari instead of soy sauce would be great. Our server was so nice!

Since I tried the gluten free pizza, I have been addicted and it became my go to on the weekend. I wish they had a bigger size for the family since the small one is kind of pricey and will not be sufficient for a family of three.

This place and the staff are awesome! We got the gluten free strawberry banana crepe and it was so so delicious and refreshing. The owner is so nice! Highly recommend:)
