We had an amazing evening at The Firefly: the food was just amazing and the staff super nice! Thank you for providing a safe gluten free environment. We cannot recommend more this place

Dominique Martin

I cannot praise them enough!! It is such a relief to know that everything is gluten free but also soooooo delicious!! I love the music and ambiance as well. It is always an amazing meal, even before my gluten issues I would have come here all of the time if I knew. Also... The donut holes will change your life, and the coffee is out of this world! Just try it already lol

Tiffany Alco

The food here is delicious and the whole place is super cute. Highly recommend the lemon blueberry pancakes 🥞. Also, everything at this location is gluten free and is vegan (unless you get eggs).

James Rodriguez

Great chicken! Gluten free options available! Hella 💣 gluten free beer too..

John Keszler

Amazing burger, very allergy friendly, gluten free options were incredible. Services was also incredible.

I’ve heard such amazing things about this place so I was really excited to try it. I ordered my food on Uber eats so that may have made the difference with dine out. The pizza was OK, I didn’t love the cheese and there wasn’t a lot of sauce. However, the bread was great especially gluten-free. The fries were a little bit cold so that might be why they weren’t so good but I wasn’t in love. And the mac & cheese was OK. It was probably the best thing out of all three items that I tried. I just wish it had more cheese. I would definitely try it again, but would try different items or in person this time.

A fully gluten free kitchen with a variety of options for dairy, vegan and Paleo diets. The line is long and moves very slowly (especially on weekends).

My friend, who is severely celiac, got very sick here. They say all the food is gluten free, but that’s obviously not true. We looked up everything about this restaurant after she got sick and saw the review of some other person on this site who also got sick. They sell a lot of oats, so that’s probably why she got sick. Cross contamination. Watch out!!! For the not celiac’s, the food is good it just isn’t totally gluten free.

Awesome place to eat first time here in San Francisco, and being a gluten free celiac, they did the best gluten free double burger with lettuce buns I have ever had. Their fryer is also GF and the potatoes are cut on site.

Natalie Bauer

401k food and wine bar is a dedicated gluten free restaurant. They have delicious food that is so good my gluten eating husband kept asking if I was sure the food was safe for me. We had the Caesar salad, arugula salad, calamari, chicken and waffles, mini churros, and bread pudding. The servers were delightful, energetic, friendly, and gave great food recommendations. I can’t wait to visit again. It’s such relief to know everything is safe and to have such a great meal.

House bread with garlic butter, hot shrooms (star of the show), and Caesar salad were excellent. I think I would return just for those three things. Joey was an excellent server. I knocked off a couple stars because although our appetizers came out quickly, we waited an extremely long time for our entrées and the pesto fusilli came out room temperature, nearly cold. They accidentally served us a gluten-free widow pizza, and shortly after brought us one with the regular crust. The smoked date purée on the widow sounded intriguing, and although it was tasty, there was way too much slathered onto the pizza. I would not go so heavy handed with that covering the pizza. So overall, the entrees were meh, but the appetizers excellent!

Donna Wong

Great food!! Ordered the eggplant, spicy noodles, pad Thai and pineapple fried rice. We finished everything, it was so yummy. Finished with the gluten free chocolate cake, definitely decadent. Will return when we're in town. Service was quick and friendly. Love this place.

Incredible bowl of noodles! I have a gluten-free diet so it can be hard to find good pho/ramen. And the photo speaks for itself on how much I liked my bowl of rice noodles! Perfectly cooked and seasoned meat, rich broth, and just the right amount. I loved having the extras on the side so that I could personalize the flavoring. As for the atmosphere, I loved the Disco music softly playing but the chairs were a little uncomfortable.

Mmmm! 💗 The Dough Room! My pizza was so tasty 🍕 I’ve been to a few pizza places with gluten free and this spot had a delicious gluten free crust! 🤤 I topped my pizza with alot of tasty toppings like, Olive oil Crème fraiche Onion Broccolini Garlic Mushrooms Black olives Arugula Herbs Basil SOOO GOOD I ate it for dinner & breakfast 😄😄

Emily Ou

Food was ok, came out quickly and service was great but it was busy and relatively loud while we were dining. The ramen was the most disappointing to me- noodles seemed borderline overcooked and the broth was just salty but with little actual flavour. I found it to be some of the more blah vegan dishes I’ve had in a while. It was either super spicy or just tasted like rice. The vegan cream cheese seemed a little off to be honest but that’s on me for not saying anything. I will say they’re great at accommodating allergies as I’ve heard they’ve accommodated gluten free + avocado allergy.

Tori Morrison

Loved this spot! Highlights: ambiance is a yes, pizza is a full fak YES. Their pizzas are a tribute to their own favorite pizzas from all over. Isn’t that the cutest and most inventive thing ever? Order: focaccia and burrata (just do it), enough pizzas to share, and some good drinks. We loved the tribute to the old Costco pizza and the meat lovers. Deep dish pizzas also looked to die for! Also, I’m gluten-free and LOVED their gluten-free pizza (usually I’m left feeling very disappointed but not here)! Great for: date night, friend hangs, family dinners, and casual solo pizza nights out with your dog (they have two patios for dogs to sit). Kids are welcome too! Make sure you make a reservation and try and carpool as parking around here is tough on a busy Friday/Saturday night.

These pupusas are too good! Literally had to come back the next day to get more after my first time trying them. I particularly love the large number of vegetarian options that they provide! Great gluten free place for those in your life as well! Tip on the tamales: the corn is fine, but the chicken is AMAZING. Just be careful of serving sizes because they do not shy away from large portions!

Patricia F

Such a tasty cozy brunch spot. We got a spot outside as this place tends to have a long wait time. They provided us blankets as it was chilly day. Make sure to get their biscuit - the gluten was well worth it as I'm a lil intolerant.

I was so excited to come here and try this fully gluten free restaurant but me and my boyfriend ended up very disappointed with our experience. When we entered the restaurant we were sat at a table about 1 foot away from another couple in the middle of the room. This felt very strange since there were other tables open but they chose to sit us directly next to another couple, so close that it felt like we were in their conversation. The next issue was the food timing. We waited about 50 minutes for our food to come. The entire dining experience is supposed to be 1 hour and 30 minutes but 50 of that was taken up by waiting. This was extremely frustrating too because we could see couples who got to the restaurant after us getting the same things that we ordered first. Once the food got to our table it was very disappointing. The pasta was overcooked and had a hole going through the middle which made it feel like I was eating a long macaroni noodle with my sausage pasta. We also ordered a ravioli and short rib. The ravioli was so heavy and the sauce on it was so thick we barely could eat it. The short rib was extremely overcooked and dry and not what you would expect for 50 dollars. Another note to add is that this restaurant does not have a bathroom. When you pay for such an expensive meal you hope that the restaurant you go to at least has a bathroom for their customers. But no, customers are expected to walk down to the Main Street and use a communal bathroom with a code. This is not what you would expect for a fine dining restaurant. Overall, I do not recommend coming here. As a celiac, I have had far better pasta from the box. After spending 200 dollars here we feel very disappointed and almost scammed out of our money. Super disappointed with this place and if you are a celiac and seeing this excited that there is a fully gf restaurant near you, please spend your money elsewhere. It is not worth the money or the time.

My sister and I will stop by here just to grab their Buffalo Cauliflower Bites *Drooling* and we absolutely refuse to share we have to get our own order. The vibe is anywhere from casual and relaxing on the patio to romantic and fine dining inside. The menu is constantly evolving with the seasons. I have tried many of their burgers as a lettuce wrap and with the gluten free bun, pumpkin doughnut holes, asparagus risotto, and peach pie! Revolution never disappoints. They share a parking lot with Temple Coffee & a :10 second walk to the Coop or Pushkin Bakery!

Clarissa Maloney

So good! As someone with celiac disease (gluten), this place was phenomenal! I had bruschetta and pasta!!! It's so amazing. I will be coming back. Loved this place. Separate GF menu, options on menu say "sub gluten free pasta / crust," for example.

Kim Simmons

This place is amazing such a treat to have so many options. I had the chicken sandwich is was crispy and the brioche bun was incredible. The absolute best gluten free food I’ve ever had.

Kristy Muir

Great to eat stress free as a coeliac in San Fransisco, a place where I struggled to find GF safe places to eat. Thanks for an excellent Mexican meal!

The Hoff Nation

Vegan cheese, gluten free options 😍

Jayme Thomas

I absolutely love EAT. Their vegan and gluten free donuts are a game changer - I go just for the donuts often. Good coffee and very kind service. Great vegan and GF options across the board.

Shelley Oleachea-Caufield

It’s 100% gluten free. We ate here twice and had two different meals each was delicious!

Tammy Marq.

Fantastic gluten free chicken sandwich and a dairy free chocolate shake! Heaven 😊

kimberly kruge

Cora, the manager at this Culver City location, is awesome. I have a severe food allergy and Cora checked ingredients thoroughly before I ordered. And there was an issue with the payment terminal when I went to pay and Cora resolved the issue super professionally and kindly --- honestly just an experience that made my day. Highly recommend MOD as an affordable, yummy for anyone with a gluten allergy.

Arabella Redmond

Amazing vegan find in La Jolla, it was on a rooftop so it was so pretty and it was just an 11 min walk from the beach. We got desserts and both were amazing, we got the brownie and the carrot cake and both were soooo good. We couldn’t even tell the brownie was gluten free. They had so much food we wish we could’ve stayed for dinner.

Emma C Siegel

Fantastic food and very lively energy! I have celiac disease and I was so excited to find gluten free options here and our server was knowledgeable about allergies. Every dish is made to order so they're able to make customizations based on dietary needs. Cocktails were awesome too. Super excited to have found this spot, looking forward to coming back soon.

Michael Mahnke

The gluten-free pasta with pesto was amazing! The pesto was to die for! I wanted a second order just for the pesto!

I come here on Mondays when my gluten free friend comes to Sac & most of the fav gf restaurants are closed. Some of the gf macaroni & cheese dishes are great & served hot in a cast iron dish. Some macs are not great & served in a regular dish that arrived cold, back to oven for 5 mins, came back cold & in a fresh, cold dish. Nice salads. Seems like seasonal dishes? Really expensive for what is served. Nice staff. Clean, cool place.

Teddy A

I ate here more than a few times a week while in school. It’s delicious and gf.

Joanna Kay

Eating here elicits uncontrolled, primal noises of enthusiasm. The flavors and textures are things I will dream about. And it's food you can morally feel good about eating if that's something you think about. Amazing crunchy fried mushrooms that were also gluten free!! It's hard to find GF fried things that are amazing and yet here we are. I fear that as time passes I will be confused as to whether my memory of this experience was real life, or if it was instead, a dream. Ordered: N5 - Pad thai E23 - Crispy Mushroom E11 - Spicy lemongrass Deluxe (This review is not hyperbolic - I'm just that jazzed.)

Amelie Anna

10 stars! 50! All of the stars! The food is incredible. So so so good, and fresh and fast! We had the ricotta pancakes and the gluten free pancakes - geeeeez they were AMAZING!!!!! The folks in the kitchen and the two people waiting tables are working incredibly hard and treat everyone with the utmost respect and professionalism. While we were there, they had to deal with some rather special customers and they kept their absolute cool and treated them with kindness despite the entitlement they were being dealt. The bathroom is clean. The vibe of the place has aspects of a New York diner, if you I know what I mean :) so charming. We loved it! We’ll come again!!!

Sam Boland

Staff was extremely knowledgeable about celiac disease, felt very safe eating here. Great food too!

Beth Parsons

Great gluten free options!

Dominick Smith

Lulu

Great gluten free options 😁 the food was pretty good. I would come here again . The staff were very knowledgeable about if things were dairy-free as well which is another allergy I have a long with gluten.

Lisa Amnotte

Very busy but worth the standing in line for! Great place for dedicated GF! Delicious Blue Corn Waffles both sweet and savory and special sauce yum! I bought the flour and the sauce.

Leah Rusche

First time visiting, now my favorite breakfast place in East Sac/Midtown area. The gluten free blueberry cornmeal pancakes were delicious, and the breakfast burrito was huge and one of the tastiest we've had. Our server was delightful. Friendly and very helpful navigating our food allergies.

Gary Standke

Went for dinner here after a show at the Honda Center. Lots of seating at 6pm on a Saturday night. Lots of gluten free options. Had the shrimp tacos which were 3 hughe tacos packed with shrimp. Fantastic flavor and all gluten free. Free parking.

Sven Pedersen

Cute cafe with great food that caters to dietary restrictions like gluten free, vegan and vegetarian.
