Top 50 Gluten-Free Places Across Illinois

BEST GF BREAD EVER!!! Unfortunately it is very expensive thought

Susanna

they support the queer community and their pastries are phenomenal, especially the lemon bars 😉

Grace Dransfield

Thoroughly enjoyed my donut, wonderful + friendly service - I do wish there was more of a range for GF but very grateful and impressed with the bounce and taste. Could barely tell the difference from when I could eat gluten! 💕

First time ordering delivery for a Gluten Free pizza. The pizza was delicious and came in Gluten Free box as expected. Based on reviews pizza did not affect Celiac individuals. Based on reviews items are kept separate to avoid cross contamination. I hope it stays true to this so we can keep ordering it for our family. Thank you!

We recently used Sweet Ali for food to keep a celiac bridesmaid safe for an entire weekend. They also helped us with sweets for our vegan guests. Definitely recommend!

Charlotte Skolnick

I have Celiac and this place was outstanding. I immediately let the server know I have Celiac and asked about the dedicated fryer and cross contact and she confirmed and said everything can be made gluten free except for the mushroom 'escargot'. The food was absolutely incredible. We got the slow cheetah drink, sweet corn hummus, moroccan onion dip, Big Eye Tuna & Summer Melon, Feta & Olives, Crispy Potatoes, and Lamb & Beef Kefta. All amazing, and I think our favorite of the lot was the moroccan onion dip. They have house made gluten free crackers for the hummus dips that were very delicious and crunchy. I always wait to write my reviews until the next day when I know I'm not sick from being glutened, and can confirm I did not get glutened here. Wish I took more pics of the food!

We got two small deepdish one of them glutenfree. Delicious and hearty! The crust tasted like a proper bakery pie that could be your breakfast. Service was a bit off, our host would take his time just taking our order and gave the impression that he was stonex

I could rant and rave about this pizza for hours. Their gluten free, stuffed deep dish is rediculously good. Dont even get me started on the gluten free calzones 😭 I've ordered delivery from here like 3 times this week, it's just so good!

Sylvia Smith

Excellent gluten free options, including blueberry pancakes!

Ryan Wantland

Pretty good pizza, great service, a little overhyped. 30-45 minute wait on a Saturday evening without reservations…not bad. We were served small samples while we waited which was much appreciated. We shared the Salsiccia e broccoletti to start which was absolutely delicious. The Italian sausage was full of flavor and rapini was excellent. My Cafona pizza was pretty underwhelming. Tomato sauce was too watery which soaked through most of the undercooked crust. My partner loved their gluten free Fiorentina! Good GF crust is hard to find.

Heather Taibl

My boyfriend’s son has severe peanut and tree nut allergies as well as Celiacs. We called the day before and the manager, Jennifer, walked through the meticulous precautions they take to make sure he can eat safely. She went out of her way to watch for and make a note on our reservation. From the moment we stepped in the restaurant everyone was aware of his allergies and they even have a dedicated gluten-fee menu. Jennifer checked in with us and made sure we were doing well. The food was phenomenal, the service was phenomenal, and we were so grateful to be able to dine somewhere that truly understood his allergies. Highly recommend this restaurant! Thank you!

Emmy Johnson

Not the best experience. Our waitress gave us indifferent answers about how the gluten free food is prepared. We ended up having to talk to the manager (which is something I hate asking for). The food ended up being okay and I didn’t have any reaction. It was nice to have gluten free mac and cheese! I think our experience would’ve been much better if we had a more educated waitress

We remain Chicago’s most gluten-conscious restaurant, and our team is committed to keeping plenty of delicious, fully gluten-free options that everyone can enjoy.”

Pasta. Fancy dinner.

Nicholas Sanchez

Very bed establishment. Very accommodating to my celiac girlfriend, and food was delicious as always.

Raj Joshi

We thoroughly enjoyed the gluten-free fish and chips, asparagus dip, and drinks. The ambiance was wonderful, and the service was friendly and attentive. I’ve been craving fish and chips for a while now, and I finally found a place that satisfies my craving.

Mary Bohn

As a celiac girlie, idk if I would go here again. I didn't get a huge feeling of confidence that my food was handled with care. The restaurant is more of a burn & turn style brewery. The bacon wrapped shrimp & triple sausage plates were amazing, I just can't speak to how safe they were. They do not have a dedicated fryer. They do have the Glutenberg GF beer and GF desserts. I didn't try any of the desserts though

Irena Savic

Delicious gluten-free burgers! Knowledgeable and family-owned.

Giselle Ballesteros

Dedicated Gluten Free kitchen, and the food was delicious! Raspberry mojito was amazing. Alligator dip was so good with amazing baquette toast, hard to beleive it was gluten free, the texture of the baguette was amazing. The gumbo had perfect amount of spice. The chicken wings were the best. The fettucine had such great texture for a gluten free pasta, totally nailed it. Loved chatting with Chesa! The atmosphere, decor, music, waitstaff, food were all wonderful.

Lauren DiSandro

Their “gluten free” donuts are actually advertised as “gluten less”. If you are celiac be aware they are fried in the same oil as the regular gluten containing. My work got these for me thinking they were gluten free bc of how they are advertised. They made me very sick.

Sarah W

Dedicated GF restaurant with the best bowls! I love the fan favorite.

Michelle Raclaw

Chase was amazing! Made my sister’s bday dinner special & gave special attention to the gluten-free choices to make sure the dishes were gluten-free. 10/10! Highly recommend Aba!

Sarah W

Great tapas restaurant with a marked gluten-free menu. Just check with your server about cross contact issues. I love the brussel sprout salad and the chirizo wrapped dates!

We were in Chicago for business. My friend has severe allergies, gluten, nuts, strawberries, eggs. We selected Mon Ami Gabi based on options for gluten free. We made reservation and arrived about 20 minutes early. Entrance to the hotel is gorgeous. Front desk was friendly and helpful. Making sure we parked at the correct valet location (there's 2 one for residence one for restaurant. They brought us to the bar while we waited for seating. Barkeep was very friendly and very efficient. We didn't wait more then 20 minutes for our table. We were seated and we ensured they were aware of the concerns for gluten and other allergens. Waiter already was aware thanks to OpenTable reservation, I'd added a comment so they'd know ahead. They were extremely considerate pointed out the dishes that are GF. We skipped an appetizer and ordered dinner. The wait staff were friendly without being overly. Food was delivered quickly and cooked to perfection. I ordered medium rare beef and my friend ordered salmon almondine(without the almonds). Food was flavorful and delicious. Not only was our server attentive but the other staff ensured we were comfortable, well taken care of, and had everything we needed. They cleared dishes and glasses quietly while you ate without being distributive and made sure the water glasses were always full. I'd highly recommend the restaurant if you're in the area. For a Thursday the place was Busy. Reservations highly recommended. A mixture of date nights, family dinners (with younger kids) special occasions. Some folks were dressed up others in flannels and it all worked.

Went back-to-back mornings, delicious GF breakfasts, separate GF menu, food and beverages were excellent. We had Jack as our server both mornings and he was excellent, provided great options and understood gluten allergy options well.

Maria Hirst

Our server, Nicki, was great. The gluten free pizza was delicious. I ordered the Chicago classic.

Kurt Hill

Love this place! They have gluten free, covered pretty well also. Food is excellent and the owner is usually hanging around enjoying his customers. Will definitely be back.

Nicole Boelkins

The best gluten free pizza I have ever had!!! The drinks are also very good, and the service is good too. They have good mocktails as well! Will be coming back!

Grace Dransfield

Unbelievable, have a wine whilst you shop. Incredible selection, love love love. Bellissimo

Rachel Mandelker

100% Gluten free and so so good! You can bring home taquitos frozen or they can heat them up for you - loved it!!

Lise

Absolutely the BEST GLUTEN FREE meal! From meatballs & onion rings to pasta and then topped off with the gooey chocolate chip cookie for dessert!

April Henry

My celiac family stops here whenever we visit the zoo. ☺️

Angela Spaeth

The entire bakery is gluten free & they take precautions with other allergies as well. Everything is AMAZING! Every time I go I usually get 1 of everything thats dairy free/vegan (and gf of course) and I am never disappointed. The owner/head pastry chef, Lorena is so sweet! She will make your vision come to life for custom orders!

Liv G

Very cautious with allergies. Fries made in dedicated fryer. Gluten free bun or lettuce wrap available.

Ella Patino

Fantastic GF options - so accommodating!! Food was very good!! Will be going back

Wayne Partington

Fabulous gem of a restaurant in the Fulton Market area. Croatian theme cuisine and excellent cocktails. Great vib. Shrimp scampi, charred green beans, risotto with carrots, pork ribs and branzino were amazing! Gluten free and egg free menus also.

Laura McKee

Great gluten free, vegan, and delicious food. Kind people. Nice space

Letty Terrazas

Great GF Pizza. Dough is soft and has a wonderful taste. Staff is really nice. Worth the 45min drive.

Katherine Glass

As someone with celiac, this was a very good experience. The food and service were excellent and $20 gets you more than enough per person. The flatbreads were gluten free and just as good as the gluten kind. It was also a very clean and quiet environment.

I am so happy we stopped here for dinner. The staff were knowledgeable and so kind to me when I told them of my gluten and dairy allergies. Service was amazing and the food was sublime. I missed eating Italian for fear of cross contamination but they reassured me pasta were cooked separately. What a lovely place! I will be revisiting when I'm back in town. Edit: Forgot to add, my husband got an Amaretto sour and he said it was the BEST one he's had.

Gary Young

Great food and shrimp with grits gluten free especially tasty

Michael Baron

Rice noodles and knowledgeable on gluten free broth and other items

Kris Hamacher

Food is excellent, lots of gluten free options suitable for someone with celiac. Service is great, but it's very loud and overly crowded. Tables are extremely close and people are often yelling at each other, which isn't how I like to brunch. If you go early it's not as bad.

Hannah McGinty

The food was absolutely delicious. My group of 6 people had food allergies (shrimp and gluten) and our server, Chyane, was very kind and made sure that the kitchen was informed of our allergies. She answered all of our questions and made sure we had everything we needed. Chyane is awesome!

Hailey Yetman

Best airport food experience ever. I have celiac and as soon as I mentioned it they changed gloves and used new utensils to get food from new containers, which is above and beyond and so appreciated. Food is so good. Wish it was at every airport!!!!!

Chicken pot pie GF is to die for. My family has been ordering from this place weekly for almost a year now since we found it.
