Top 2 Gluten-Free Spots Across Downtown Cleveland

Victor Segarra

It was my first time visiting this restaurant and the experience was very good. I was lucky that the waitress spoke Spanish. If you don't eat gluten it's a good place to come because the sauces are gluten-free and they have gluten-free bread. I hadn't had a sandwich in a restaurant for years. The food was exquisite. I tried the Big Pig Sandwich and the fries. When I return to Cleveland I definitely have to go back.

I ordered the gluten free bun. I understand that gluten free tends to be “dry”, and crumbly. What I discovered is that eating the burger upside down worked better because the bottom is too thin and fell apart. Overall very good burger and the service was and restaurant was👍.

Very cute place, I would love to hang out there but I was just moving through and grabbed a cinnamon sugar cookie that happened to be gluten free. If they make a cookie that dope, I figure I need to come back for some coffee!! It was THAT good! Thanks y’all ❤️❤️🙏

We were in Cleveland for a quick trip and needed a good restaurant for gluten-free food. I googled restaurants on our path, and this restaurant was suggested. We arrived about 1pm and did not have to wait to be seated. Our server, Bianka, immediately came to take care of us. She very thoroughly went over gluten-free options and even checked with the kitchen to make sure what we wanted was gluten-free. We did have to wait a bit for our food, but when we got it, we understood. This was hands down the best lunch we have ever had. My mom had the burger and fries. She said they were the best fries she had ever had. I had the lamb stew, and I was in food heaven. Overall, this was an amazing experience. We lived the atmosphere, our server, and the food. We will be back.

A Flavorful Finale to a Beautiful Weekend – Agave & Rye, Cleveland, OH After an unforgettable weekend at the Lithuanian Song Festival in Cleveland, our stomachs reminded us it was time to eat—and fast. With a long drive back to New Jersey ahead of us, we needed something quick but satisfying. That’s when we discovered Agave & Rye, a spot that had great reviews and a creative taco menu that caught our attention. Though we wished we had time to sit and soak in the atmosphere of the restaurant, we had to settle for takeout. Still, the experience didn’t disappoint. Since it was our first time, we weren’t quite sure what to get—so we played it safe and went with variety: Taco Flight (3) x4 Chips & Queso Lemonade Buzz Box As I waited, Yavonne, one of the staff members, came over to let me know they were out of lemonade but could offer virgin margaritas instead—made in-house with their own mix. It sounded fun and refreshing, so I said yes. Not only was it a great call, but Yavonne even helped me carry our order to the car, where my wife and kids were waiting. Talk about service! The food? Absolutely out of this world. These were hands-down some of the best tacos we’ve ever had. Bold flavors, creative combos, fresh ingredients—and bonus: they offer gluten-free taco options! The virgin margaritas were a hit with everyone, especially the kids. It turned out to be a highlight of the trip 😄 Yvonne said they make their own margarita mix and it was really good, wishing I could have had a real margarita but it was refreshing especially went well with the tacos. If you’re ever in Cleveland and even remotely hungry, Agave & Rye is a must-visit. Whether you dine in or take out, you're in for something special.

I love this place! The food here is extremely healthy and very accommodating to my dietary restrictions including gluten and dairy. The staff is so welcoming and nice and made the entire experience so much better. 10/10 would come back.

I absolutely LOVE it here. My husband and I just recently discovered 27 Club after picking up the latest copy of Scene Magazine. Due to medical conditions, I frustratingly have to avoid both gluten and dairy. This limits my options at most restaurants & cafes. When I saw the menu here, I was stunned. We got a Margherita pizza with vegan cheese and gluten free crust…it was the best I’ve ever had! My husband, who does NOT have dietary restrictions, said he couldn’t even tell that it was gluten free or dairy free. The drinks are gorgeous. I highly recommend the pink milk latte with oat milk! Make sure you pick up some merch and do not miss the vegan + gluten free desserts that are on the counter, off to the side. We tried the donuts and not only were they tasty, but they weren’t too heavy. I left feeling great. This is a must-visit for the sensitive stomach girlies! Parking is surprisingly decent for the location. Atmosphere is social media worthy and very on brand for MGK. Already looking forward to going back.

Good selection of German cuisine. Excellent beer selection. Excellent waitstaff. Slightly overpriced for what you get but near to Playhouse Square so not unexpected. Surprising amount of gluten-free items if that is your need or preference.

Everything here was exceptional! The food , the service, and the atmosphere. The kitchen and staff went above and beyond to accommodate my gluten allergy and even prepared GF bread to accompany my salad. Definitely recommend and hope to return soon

Love this place & the atmosphere. Always such a great time, love the energy the owners bring! The food is delicious & I love that they offer gluten free 🥰

An absolute gem in Cleveland and my husband’s and my new favorite spot! The restaurant was so accommodating to our party of four, and the decor and ambiance were incredible (even down to the details of the bathroom). We tried the Saz-Who drink, Caesar tartare, JoJos, pimento cheese, burger box, and the fried ice cream Almond Joy dessert (so delicious!). As someone with a less adventurous palate, I was a little reluctant at first, but everything was AMAZING. We even plan to come back with my MIL who is gluten-free because they seem accommodating to GF folks. I love that everything is locally sourced—it’s such a cool touch. Our server, Zaq (sp?), was incredibly personable, attentive, and really knowledgeable about the menu. You can tell by his enthusiasm that he had a passion for the place, that is energy you don't usually see when you go out to dinner. You can tell that so much heart and soul has been put into this place, and we’re so lucky to have it here in our city.

Came here for our 1 year anniversary & it was awesome! Great staff, incredible food, elegant atmosphere. Everything was 10/10. Our waitress was very nice & helpful. We got free rolls to start, a limoncello spritz, marble room chop salad, fish-n-chips sushi roll, Delmonico steak with asparagus. My wife got the filet mignon 6oz with pommes frites (fries). The hostess were super nice. It’s on the more expensive side but for a special occasion, it’s well worth it. The cotton candy was a nice free gift from our waitress too :) Only downside is they don’t have a lot of gluten free/dairy free options for people with dietary restrictions. But we still had an AMAZING TIME!

Went on Saturday night before a show and had an outstanding experience. Our server, Dorothy, was on it! She was helpful and knowledgeable about the menu, especially the gluten-free options. Everything was delicious! Calamari appetizer was outstanding. So happy with the experience, can't wait to go back and try more on the menu. It's always great when you have dietary restrictions, to have a hard time deciding on what to order because there are so many great options available. Well done, District!
