Delicious vegan and gluten-free food and drinks that leave you feeling good! (The greenfields salad/dressing is my personal favorite) Friendly and personable staff.
Delicious surf & turf burger! Our server was helpful and patient with my questions about the menu re: gluten-free options. Sweet potato fries were awesome!
Management was friendly and wonderful. Burger was dry this time. But they did get my gluten-free order correct, and that's more important. The banzai Burger without teriyaki sauce on a gf bun is where it's at. So good.
Wow!!! Now I know why everyone raves about this place. The food was delicious and the bakery was incredible! They have Gluten Free peanut butter cookies to die for along with GF cupcakes and regular bakery items that i wanted to take home and eat all of them!!
Excellent selection of Mediterranean dishes. Wine and beer selection (ask for off-menu items and specials) are great as well. Highly recommend the veggie/meat dolmades, samplers, Mediterranean chicken, and beef shawarma. Bacon wrapped dates are great and they offer gluten and dairy free options–including GF naan!
Mireyah at Belle Estani and her whole team are the sweetest most personable wedding vendors. They make SO MANY yummy treats your biggest problem will be too many choices. Everything I have tried is amazing. She also is super accommodating to dietary restrictions and made my daughter gluten free options for her birthday which is hard to find around here. She goes above and beyond for her clients and customers.
I had ordered a gluten-free small cake for a first year anniversary dinner. It was decorated beautifully. We couldn’t wait to eat. We cut it and served it. It was the worst tasting cake ever. Don’t know if it was missing ingredients or that’s what gluten-free taste like there. Not one person at the table could eat it. No one liked it. And we had to throw the entire cake for $55 in the garbage. So I would ask to taste gluten-free there before you would order it. Never again when I order gluten-free from there
I know this is in the fast food genre BUT I was hoping that the food they serve was healthier. Well I finally took a look at the ingredients and I'm incredibly disheartened. Look at the ingredients just in the burger buns. It's poison. All these chemicals hurt your body and make you sick. I'm so frustrated that our FDA allows this. I copied straight from their website. The staff here are always kind and amazing. But I'm sad that nothing is safe to eat from a restaurant. Look at the cheese!!!! It's not even real cheese since they added so much to it and they charge SO MUCH for it too! *Elbow Macaroni Pasta: Water, Enriched Durum Semolina (Durum Semolina Wheat Flour, Niacin, Ferrous Sulfate, Thiamine Mononitrate, Riboflavin, Folic Acid).

We had our wedding reception at Peddlers in September. Carolyn was very accommodating with our requests and easy to work with! The food was fantastic (several pizza varieties including gluten free along with wings and appetizers), and the team running the bar was quick and stayed within our budget! I can’t recommend them enough for large gatherings.
I got gluten free panini. It wasn’t a panini. I learned if you order gluten free the bread is like sandwich size and it’s smaller than regular sandwich bread. It’s a cute little finger sandwich but not a panini. For 13 dollars, I’ll do the regular bread next time( panini bread) Taste was good.
Great place with a great staff. The food is excellent and offers both vegetarian and gluten free options. The drinks are unique but very good. There is outdoor seating if you want to sit outside. Definitely recommend this place if you are in the area.
Gelsosomo's was a fairly good pizza place for my taste. I am a NY style pizza fan and this is more a midwest style, which is fine but not my first choice type of pie. Fresh ingredients served hot with decent service. I was, however, impressed with their gluten free crust. Well worth a try even for those not needing gluten free.
The beer selections are good with choices of draft, bottled domestic, imports and crafts.
Amazing amazing amazing place to eat! We came in Mother’s Day with 8 people WITHOUT a reservation. We had to wait for about 2 hours, but this was understandable due to the high volume. Fortunately, they have a great coffee bar where we could hang out and chat while we waited for a table. Half of our party has gluten allergies, but the staff was super knowledgeable and we had no concerns or issues eating the food. The omelettes are HUGE and the prices are fair for how much food you get. I will certainly be back over some of the other breakfast spots in valpo.
We had dinner at Pesto’s tonight and Lauren S. was our server. She was absolutely incredible handling my Celiac diagnosis and necessity to eat gluten free. She went above and beyond to ensure the kitchen was aware of my dietary restrictions. Thank you for a great experience, especially since it can be challenging to eat out!
Best gluten free meal I've ever had! If you're not gluten free, you're still in for amazing flavors, big portions, great drinks, and incredible service.
If you’re looking for a safe bet, Chipotle is always a good choice, especially if you’re looking for meatless options. This time around, I ordered the sofritas (which is a tofu based protein) in a burrito, loaded with fajita veggies, corn salsa, beans, etc.
A solid choice if you’re vegan.
Also worth noting that if you’re avoiding gluten, their burrito bowls are a great choice.
I love Furin! The sushi is delicious, and my boyfriend loves the noodle bowls. They also have a gluten free menu, I need to eat gluten free and have never had an issue here. I definitely recommend this place, if you have never tried it, you should!

Quality has really gone down. Food was only ok. Staff not knowledgeable on gluten free alternatives anymore, that is frustrating when you need to know what a safe option is.
Such a wonderful family owned and operated establishment! I'm on a medical diet and tried their gluten free crust and couldn't tell the difference. It tasted delicious and the toppings were fresh. I was happy to be able to have a pizza without the worry!!! Thank You Uncle Menny!!
I always have an amazing experience at Fazolis! I am obsessed with their breadsticks, and their gluten-free pastas are so delicious. Great food, great environment, and even greater crew! Also, shout out to the manager, Kyle, for patiently answering all of my questions!
Dream date night!!! We had pizza which was gluten free and perfect! Then played goofy golf, laser tag which was incredibly FUN! Go karts which was a blast then video games and after we were good and wore out we went to sit and listen to live music. This place is great for any occasion and group at any age. They also had batting cages and a child's amusement ride. My new favorite place!
Our waitress Madison D, was one of the best servers we've ever had. Secondly as someone who can't have gluten ... AMAZING options. Thirdly the drinks and food are out of this world! We can't wait to come back EVERY TIME we are in the area !
Ordered a gluten-free pizza and a large pepperoni pizza both with extra cheese for $3.02 each for that extra cheese, and there was barely any cheese on them. I called, and the guy said he made the pizza, so he knows there was extra cheese on it. If there was extra cheese on them, it was one little piece. It was ridiculous. Never going to that Domino's again.
It's a little nicer than a hole in the wall with all the flavor and large portions you would expect from a hole in the wall. Serranos is a gem and has the best Mexican food I've tasted anywhere in Porter County, let alone Valparaiso.
They also have gluten free, vegetarian, and Gluten Free AND vegetarian options!
It seems like it's never so busy that you can't get a table, but it is a smaller place so beware of that.
The wait staff are insanely friendly, too.
If you're in northern Valparaiso, you're better off coming here than La Cabana... In fact, if you're in southern Valparaiso, you're better off making the trip up here for Serranos.
Lunch was delicious today. I ordered Pad Thai with chicken. Pad Thai with rice noodles which is great for gluten free diet choices. There are other lunch Thai lunch special choices which includes many curry entrees. Soon they will offer sushi. Just ask. Staff is super nice. They serve two veggie egg rolls came with your lunch entree. scrumptious! Cozy lunch. They serve dinner too. Yes you can order carryout, by phone or person or on their website & click the online on the top right of website. Register and you're ready to order. Plenty of parking. Located north of the Beef Mart. ●● Please support this small business. ●●
Need to expand lunch menu and offer more gluten free items to menu. Otherwise the lunch was good the restaurant is beautiful and clean and the service is good. Can't wait to try the dinner menu. Wish they were open on Sundays in summer.
