This is one place where I can go to get safe gluten-free pastries and was really disappointed with my last experience. My wife and I went into the shop on 6/28 which is my birthday for me to get a few birthday treats. We were at the bakery counter while the worker was checking out a male customer. The male customer left and two women entered. My wife and I had been waiting at the counter where all the pastries are to order and so the other two women stood on the right hand side of us, closer to the door. The worker with purple hair proceeded to completely disregarded my wife and I and smiled, spoke and attempting to help the two women who had came in after only for them to tell the worker we were they first which the worker already knew and they proceeds to say “oh yes they were” and then comes over to us. This was so off putting and I really appreciate those two women who spoke up. That encounter really shifted the vibe of my day and I will not be returning. Also, the quality of the cupcakes were so poor, they had hardened. There’s no way they were fresh. To the worker, do better. Don’t make people feel small in a place where they are expecting equality. Thank you.

Foo Dog has been my favorite for years for gluten free food deliciousness. As someone with celiac, this place is a dream come true. Everything is so flavorful and unique from anything else around Jax. I try a new dish or app every time and I’m never disappointed. I love introducing this place to others. My only complaint is that wish I could buy their sauces and vegan popcorn by the gallon!

Absolutely love this pizza place! They offer a fantastic gluten-free crust that actually tastes amazing, which is hard to find. The crust is perfectly crispy and holds up well with all the delicious toppings. The staff is always friendly and accommodating, and the variety of pizzas is top-notch. Whether you're gluten-free or not, this place is a must-try. Highly recommend!

This Thai restaurant was fantastic! I ordered the pad thai & we shared fried tofu squares and spring rolls with peanut sauce. Everything was full of flavor & they were super accommodating to my gluten and dairy allergies.

💙 I ate at the Blue Orchid Thai restaurant for the first time this past week with my friend. It captures your attention right away with its beautiful interior and large outdoor eating porch. We decided to sit outside because the weather was so nice. I ordered my fav Thai dish, Drunken Noodles. They are great about taking care of gluten allergies there and the dish tasted very fresh and delicious. My friend got the yellow curry and she loved it. If you love Thai food definitely go The ambiance, food and location are amazing 🤩

Hawker’s was my first stop for my trip to Jacksonville. I sure was craving Asian cuisine and this place is the place to go-to. The decor and atmosphere was very lively and see why it is. The food was fantastic and delightful especially the Roast Duck Bao. The Bao is so simple few ingredients which makes it amazing and always been my favorite. The other dishes Roti, C.K.T, Singapore definitely complement each other and can hold its own. Viet-Spresso was a very good twist to the popular espresso martini but more of kicker going into the veins. As I’m typing this, I can taste all the food once again. *multiple items can be made gluten free such as the Singapore Mei fun and the servers are open to finding alternatives for your restrictions.
