Top 13 Gluten-Free Destinations Across Golden Oak, Orlando

k

I’ve been a loyal customer of Sofrito because their food is undeniably excellent, and they offer great gluten-free options—a rarity that I appreciate. However, my recent experiences with their service and attention to detail have been increasingly disappointing, to the point where I can no longer support this establishment. Over the course of my last three orders, there have been consistent issues. On one occasion, the chimichurri was so excessively salty that it was completely inedible. On another order, I received salad but no salad dressing; most recently, my order didn’t include a salad at all. These might seem like small issues independently, but together, they point to a pattern of carelessness that’s hard to overlook, especially considering the cost of dining here. My dish alone was over $36—at that price point, I expect the details to matter. What’s even more frustrating is how poorly the management handled these issues. When I called after the chimichurri incident, I spoke to a manager who dismissed my concerns and did nothing to resolve the problem. More recently, when I called about the missing salad, they informed me that they had just started omitting salads—something a customer shouldn’t have to find out after the fact. To make matters worse, when I called again to address these repeated problems, the manager offered only a 20% credit, claiming that they couldn’t do more because they “didn’t have the item in front of them.” This response came across as dismissive and gave the impression that the manager either didn’t believe me or didn’t care to make things right. Had we been dining in the restaurant, these issues could have been corrected immediately. But as takeout customers, we’ve been left feeling disregarded and undervalued. It’s incredibly disappointing to see such a great restaurant fail so miserably at customer service and consistency. While we gave them multiple opportunities to address our concerns, nothing was adequately resolved. Unfortunately, this will be the last time we dine at Sofrito. Excellent food can only make up for so much when the service falls so short.

I have celiac’s disease and haven’t had a decent gluten free pizza in years. This was seriously the best pizza I’ve ever had!!! Great service and quick too!!

Michael Pain

Had lunch today at space 220. Our waiter Jonathan was fantastic and very helpful with our gluten allergies. He got everything prepared exactly how we wanted and it was a pleasure eating here. The food was great, the service was even better. Thank you Jonathan for making our honeymoon as special as it could be.

One of my favorite sit down all you can enjoy gluten-free feast.

Katherine Naccari

Megan Veirun

Great service! Staff was very on top of allergies and they have a lot of gluten free options, including amazing dinner rolls.

Chef Mickeys was our first breakfast of the trip and it was good. Service was excellent, my cup was never half empty with Pog juice. My spouse has a gluten allergy so we were provided a gluten-free menu and the chef came to the table to verify the options and provided a plate with gluten-free waffles, doughnuts, and a muffin. The atmosphere was Disney esq, with Characters roaming around with the monorail zooming above. The meal was a full buffet and well worth the price. Must try on your stop at Disney World.

Went to Tony’s on 05.06.25. This used to be my favorite restaurant. I grew up going to Disney every other year, and I always made sure we went to Tony’s 1 to 2 times each trip. So, I have been to Tony’s at least seven or so times, but this will probably be my last time. They used to have amazing gluten-free bread and pasta, but they have changed it. I did not make it through the bread, which was cold, dry, and tasteless, nor did I eat much of the pasta. I got the Gluten-free Fettucine shrimp, which was sub-par at best. I did not make it halfway through; the shrimp was overcooked, and a few looked off. My sister, who was with me, said Olive Garden was better than Tony’s. I was incredibly disappointed with the downgrade in the gluten-free options here, and I'm sad to say that Tony’s is no longer my favorite restaurant.

Lots of options for gluten free and they will bring you food not from buffet to avoid cross contamination. Personally got bacon, eggs, fruit, gf mickey waffles, Mac and cheese, shrimp, cheddar potato hash. Bacon eggs, shrimp fruit and waffles were good. Mac and cheese was not great neither was hash. Very expensive for what the food was to be honest. 60 something a person. That being said our son loved meeting the characters from the 100 acre woods.

Michael Schwager

Excellent gluten free selections. We got a Belgian waffle and it was delish. These people understand gluten free. Highly recommended. The place was crowded when we went. But the wait was short. The omelette called for American cheese which is nasty stuff. We got pepper jack as a replacement. It was fine.

David Clements

All our food was fabulous from appetizers to steaks and sides! Our celiac daughter also loved it, and they did an amazing job of accommodating her special needs. They even had gluten free bread to start her meal! Justin was an amazing server who kept our food coming at just the perfect times and had us well supplied on drinks! His recommendations were also spot on. My family and I highly recommend, and we will definitely be back!

Michael Granger

May be the best sit down brunch I have had! Beautiful setting, and five star Disney service! The fruit salad was amazing! Chicken and Vanilla French toast (not on menu 😉) were yummy. My wife had the classic Mickey waffle! 🐭 Had a nice little treat for my birthday as well. Even had many gluten free options for our daughter. A must-do for brunch!

carl kellgren

Chicken nachos are as advertised, chicken and nachos. Uninspired. If you have gluten allergy or celiac, eat somewhere else. The rolls are dry and coarse.

Will Guerin

So grateful of this restaurant. It was Christmas Eve and my wife who had celiac disease / gluten allergy was very hungry. I called and asked if they could do gluten free pizzas. They said yes and was so understanding when I explained the allergy saying they had a different area to prepare gluten free pizzas and were very nice about it. Pizza and salad were great and caused no allergic reaction at all. Thank you so much!

Nellie Kashura

I had Matthieu S as my waiter and he was absolutely fantastic. He provided wonderful service and paid attention to detail. We had a group member with a nut and gluten allergy and he went above and beyond to ensure that there was no contamination. He took the time to go over the menu specifically with that person about their options. He was so attentive and provided excellent service. Please give this man a raise Disney. Thanks Matthieu!

Carrie Enriquez

Maggie was friendly and helpful. She met my gluten- friendly needs. We had a great dinner!

Vane for the gluten free pizza. It's not for celiacs or people with gluten allergy. There's cross contamination and menus specifically points that out as a disclaimer.

Veronica Nuñez

I wanted to try a cauliflower pizza but wasn't sure about it here because not everyone knows how to make them. I’ve tried their regular pizza and lasagna, and they’re delicious, but I can hardly consume gluten. Today, I gave the cauliflower pizza a shot, and it's the best cauliflower pizza I've ever had! The key to a good pizza is the sauce and cheese, and when it's cauliflower-based, it has to be well-toasted so it doesn't get soggy. Honestly, this one was incredible! The sauce is simply homemade; it feels so natural, and the cheese is amazing! I highly recommend it.

Diego Ascanio

The service is very good, the food not so much, I ordered gluten free pasta with marinara sauce and shrimp, the shrimp were burnt, the pasta was hard, the marinara was acceptable but nothing special

Bobbert Mung

Good prices for quality of very flavorful food and cleanliness of establishment. Fresh fruit, in-house made sauces, and seasonal menu give a great variety of options from decadent to healthy and vegan/gluten free. Booze available as well.

Russel Weich

If you need gluten free this is the place!! My wife cannot eat gluten and when they told me they had a separate gluten free kitchen I was sold for her. The chicken sandwich came disassembled and gave her no issues through the day! The fries were great as well. I had gluten filled chicken tenders and fries and it was good as well. Very fresh and seemed much more affordable than other locations in and around the park. Friend staff as well!

Vanessa Becker

This definitely felt like a fun storybook meal. The decor and ambiance was lovely. Food was good, My sister has celiacs disease, which can't have any possible cross contamination with gluten. Disney is always great at accommodating allergies. She was brought slightly different versions of the food I was brought. Character interactions were great, all the characters came to our table except the Queen, who summons you to her at her discretion. It was worth it for our experience.

Justin Rupp

Great gluten free options. I have celiac disease and all gluten free options on the menu were clearly marked. The staff was all very knowledgeable about gluten free options as well as knowing what cross contamination occured. I was upset I couldn't have the chips or the chicarrones because they were fried in the same oil, but was glad the staff was knowledgeable. The service was a bit slow, but everyone was very friendly and we weren't in a rush, so we didn't mind. I got the 3 tacos meal with carne asada, alambre asada, and al pastor. The food was all delicious and each taco had a distinct flavor. Will definitely be eating here again if we are in the area.

Mareen

Beautiful place. The food was very good. I can't eat gluten, and they had a special menu for me with plenty of choices. The waitress was very nice. The cheesecake was not only delicious but also looked simply adorable. :)

This has to be one of the best dining experiences I’ve had - not just in Disney but in my life. Make an 8:30pm reservation to enjoy dinner, a firework intermission, and finish with the key lime pie for dessert. Everything was delicious (the gluten free calamari is amazing) and our server Paul was so incredibly cool and kind. Made our final night of our honeymoon one to remember forever! This is a truly special spot!

S J Flemick

We had a great meal at Pizza Hut - in Oz there arent many dine in Pizza Huts, so this was a real treat. We has a traditional and a Gluten Free pizza (which was really delicious). The staff were really friendly and work well as a team. We used our Eat n Play Orlando app for the discount but then able to tip the benefit

Seriously the best steaks we’ve ever had! I’m gluten free and was very impressed with how seriously the restaurant took my allergy. GF rolls, GF poutine (so, so wonderful) and then I got the filet with risotto. Service was impeccable. It’s pricey, but was well worth it!

Great for accommodating gluten free! Ahead of the experience, you speak to the chef about your needs and he went over what would be substituted. They came out with everything marked, gluten free cornbread, ribs, MAC & CHEESE, and strawberry shortcake. It’s family style but the gluten free items were separate.
