10/10. Can’t wait to go back for lunch. I felt safe eating here and consider GG’s celiac safe. They took excellent care to prepare wonderful safe and vegetarian gluten free food for me.
The menu doesn’t say anything about gluten-free, but the waiter assured me that there was a dedicated fryer and that everything in the menu could be made with tweaks to be gluten-free. He also said that the manager would be notified that I had celiac, as well as the kitchen. The chef delivered my meal separately and it was incredibly delicious. My partner did not need gluten-free and he said it was one of the best Mexican dishes he had ever had. I felt very safe and cared for!
This place is amazing…if you don’t have celiac. I ate here prior to my diagnosis. I spoke with them this past year and they said there is flour everywhere and would not consider their place celiac safe. There are a couple of celiac safe restaurants in Laguna, Nicks Mexican and another one and the same building complex. Both make delicious celiac safe gluten free food.
I’m not sure there is a better pizza around. The flour is imported from Italy and can be eaten by my celiac wife. To top it off all the staff here are kind, friendly and attentive. Prices are fair and wine is delicious.

Yummy brunch spot in downtown Laguna! Has everything you’d want to eat for brunch and great gluten free options. I got the Mediterranean plate & loved it!
A Taste of Paris without flying there!
Indulge in Macarons, made by French Pastry Chefs at Le Macaron in Laguna Beach. Enjoy up to 26 delectable flavors, made with almond flour (all gluten-free). The perfect texture - a delicate crisp shell with a soft and chewy center. My favorites were the Sicilian Pistachio, Red Velvet, Lemon Cream, Orange Blossom, Columbian Coffee and Lavender White Chocolate!! Can’t wait to try more flavors!
Try their Macaron Gelato Sandwich - the best of both worlds!! Their French Gelato is so creamy and thick, more indulgent than Italian gelato! My favorite was the Salted Caramel! They also have French Sorbets as well!!
They have LavAzza Coffee, flavored syrups and other drinks like Orangina, Apple Juice, French Soda and Coconut Water. I tried the Iced Matcha Latte with a little Pistachio syrup- fantastic! Not overly sweet! My new favorite!! Grab a fresh made croissant or other pastries.
Their Macarons and Gourmet chocolates make the perfect gift! They also offer catering as well! Jenia and Michael had the most friendly and helpful customer service!!
What I love about this location is that the beach is RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET!! The perfect spot to enjoy your sweet treats!!
Delicious food and incredibly friendly service. I also found a new favorite tea there (Coconutea), which they offer through a local tea maker. Highly recommended spot! Gluten-free friendly.
Great selection of sushi! Fresh and tasty. They have tons of gluten free options and take precautions for cross contamination. I have celiac and felt comfortable eating here and didn’t get sick. Loved it so much we ordered takeout the next day.
Not celiac-friendly, as the menu might have you believe. Though the menu offers multiple items that claim they can be "prepared gluten free upon request," this statement is false because items labeled GF are cooked in the same oil/fryer as foods containing gluten. Additionally, items on the menu that come with bread or toast are made GF by simply removing the bread with no alternative grain replacement.
We recently took a trip to Laguna Beach and had the pleasure of dining at Coyote Grill for an evening dinner with our family. The ocean views from the restaurant were simply breathtaking, and the food was delectable. They were also accommodating to gluten-free dietary needs, adding to our satisfaction. The margaritas served as the perfect extra touch to our dining experience, enhancing our memorable evening out while visiting Laguna.
So yummy and healthy (Delicious and nutritious):). Grass fed, vegan friendly, keto friendly, gluten free. Seed oil free. Such great service- it’s like a community feeling in this place.
I'm rating this a 5 because it's very rare to find dairy free gluten free dessert! I get the chocolate and vanilla combo with some toppings. Place could be cleaner. The toppings are do it yourself so it's a little messy. The chocolate chips looked wet? The yogurt is pay by the lb (including toppings) Not alot of space inside to sit. Some tables outside.
Delicious food, fresh ingredients and options for allergies
If gluten free (gf) the corn tortillas and tortilla chips are not safe due to cross contamination. The burrito bowl is safe and is delicious.
The staff takes allergies seriously and cares about their customers.
The restaurant is conveniently located across from public lot 5 and has street parking.
So this place can do a ton of gluten sensitive items, like gluten free buns and a good amount of the appetizers can be gluten free. The coconut fried shrimp was amazing, got the grilled chicken sandwich, comes with swiss, bacon, tomato, and a garlic parmesean aoil, with sweet potato fries. Super good. The Steak taquitos are gf as well, very good. Ask for Gavin!
Favorite place to chill and eat in Southern California. Good food, draft beer along with view and SoCal vibes is hard to beat!
Highly recommend the fish tacos and ceviche along with whatever draft beef they have.
Also for my wife they had some gluten free options including gluten free buns for her burger. Very knowledgeable on the topic.
Gluten-free options I had the salmon it was delicious. And the presentation was beautiful! Our server was knowledgeable about gluten-free options
Hands down, it was the best meal I had on my entire vacation from Palm Desert to Laguna Beach. Thank you for a wonderful experience and most of all for making my dietary restrictions feel normal.
First I will say I never write reviews, but after my dinning experience at Maro, I must. From the first sip of my house made sangria, which was the best I've ever had, to the amazing wood fire grilled appetizers, delicious entres and decadent desert, this was hands down the best dinning experience I have had in, I can't even remember. We were greeted and served by Chris, who couldn't have been more welcoming and knowledgeable about the abundant variety of fresh 100% organic ingredients, gluten free and vegetarian options for me and meat and seafood options for my partner. The food was excellent, and cooked to perfection in their wood fire grill...very tasty. The fire grilled artichoke appetizer and mushroom soup entree are a must! The service was outstanding, and the ambience including the Bossa Nova music made for a romantic yet cool and refreshing top notch dining experience. Can't wait to go back. Thank you to Chris and all the Maro staff, such a pleasure!
One of the best dining experiences my family has had! The food and the staff were incredible. I have a gluten allergy and they took great care of me and keeping me safe while still delivering amazing food. I would HIGHLY recommend.
They advertise GF pasta, we called and made reservations where we told them about our party's gluten allergy, then we get there and they basically refused to serve us. "We're too busy" was the excuse. You can either accommodate gluten issues or you can't. Don't go here if you have celiac.
Delicious! My wife and I were in town for 3 days and ate here twice. I need to eat gluten free and they were very accommodating (they have a gf soy sauce and can alter a variety of dishes). I enjoyed the orange chicken and my wife loved the shrimp, bok choi, and mushrooms. Highly recommend!!
Food was excellent
My wife got the steak, no sauce. She is gluten free and can't have Teri Sauce.
I got the Salmon with Mac Salad, and side Salad. Was good. The salmon was buttery and the Mac salad was hot. Yum.
Took a minute for our server to take our order and bring us drinks.
Kind and knowledgeable staff- we absolutely loved our waiter. I have a gluten/dairy allergy and they were attentive to both. And the view is spectacular.
