Stopped in for a quick bite and ended up staying for dessert too - butter chicken was fire, and that gluten-free cupcake? Unreal. Definitely coming back.

Excellent food and desserts. Entirely vegan and gluten free. Very friendly staff and cute location.

Went off the reviews others left about the gluten-free crust. As someone with celiac, quality GF options are far and few, and this place is now on that list. Yall, the crust is really that good! You don't feel like you're missing out just because you have to eat gluten free! You can order to-go and not get the first and third course.

Cozy Spot with Great Food and Vibes Loved my visit to Golden West Cafe! I had a hot chai latte that really hit the spot, and the High Mesa polenta with chorizo and an egg over easy was delicious. They were super accommodating with my gluten-free needs and brought out corn tortillas without me even asking. The vibe is laid back and comfy—perfect for a relaxing meal. I’ll definitely be back!

I don’t eat gluten or dairy and assumed I’d once again be stuck eating nothing but fruit and bacon, but boy was I wrong! The menu is carefully labeled for the most common allergens, and I had plenty of safe options to choose from! I got the gluten free cinnamon danish pancakes with strawberries instead of the icing drizzle. GF pancakes aren’t usually the tastiest, but I took a chance. Especially since the waitress said they’re even tastier with the cinnamon danish stuff (which is IN the batter), so I took her advice. And OMG, they were delicious!!! Also, a manager came out to check about allergens- apparently the griddle they use for the GF pancakes is completely GF, but they do make chocolate chip GF pancakes so there’s some risk of dairy cross-contact. That’s ok for me, but I was really impressed and grateful she checked. And I think she said the whole kitchen is nut-free, which is pretty cool. My kiddo loved his (full-of-gluten-and-dairy) waffles, and we both really enjoyed our fancy mocktails. All in all, I’m very impressed, and I was so grateful we could safely (and deliciously!) partake in this very quintessential Baltimore institution!

Cypriana was terrific. We had a birthday person with us and they made it special (see Picts), the food was great. Specifically the chef’s hummus was some of the best I’ve ever had! Seriously, I could’ve eaten that alone and been happy. The branzino with lemon was excellent and light. The chicken with lemon potatoes was perfect for my kid, the grilled octopus was nice and tender-had a slight Smokey taste and the portion size was enormous. The grilled eggplant was another lovely dish, although that reduced balsamic drizzle on top was so delish I could’ve used more! The had a gluten free pita which was excellent, and the wood roasted olives was a “to taste” item. I did not care for it but the rest of the table loved it. The service was great, drinks were generous. We had a very good time and will be back!

I’ve been wanting to try Alma Cocina Latina since I moved to the area and last night I was finally able to! 5/25/25. Thank you to Kanae, Mauricio, and Kez! You guys made a great impression and a wonderful experience in addition to a great meal 💜 Shout out to the chefs and line cooks. I can tell that these dishes are carefully thought out and curated. Everything I ate was delicious. Since it was my first visit, and was excited to see so many gluten free items, I wanted to try different dishes! Also, Punch like a lady was soooo good and compliments the food well! I’m a line cook myself and I don’t get to have food cooked for me often, so anytime I’m able to, it’s greatly appreciated. I will be returning, Thank you!

Best chicken fajitas ever and really yummy gluten free options! As a celiac, I have never gotten sick from here in the last 2 years I’ve eaten there!

Gabrielle Rodriguez

Always impressed by the fresh and creative weekly specials! The staff is incredibly friendly and well-versed in dietary restrictions… there’s no shortage of delicious gluten-free options! Mark is the friendliest bartender 🍷, and Luca is a thoughtful owner who ensures every visit outshines the last. A true neighborhood gem! 💎

Best Gluten Free Pizza I’ve eaten

Candace Anderson

I have celiac disease, so finding a restaurant with safe and delicious gluten-free options is always a challenge. I'm thrilled to say that Sobo Cafe has exceeded my expectations every time. Their gluten-free entrées are amazing, and most importantly, I've never gotten sick here. My partner and I went on our first date here back in December, and we've returned twice since then. Tonight was wine Wednesday $25 a bottle. Each visit has been fantastic, from the attentive service to the flavorful dishes. Sobo Cafe is a gem for anyone looking for reliable and tasty gluten-free dining. Highly recommended!

Michael Petrone

They have excellent gluten-free Pizza. Was there last night and we ordered two pizzas, forget to mention we needed gluten free. So they had to make two more and were really cool about not charging extra pizzas we couldn’t eat. It’s also a very beautiful space.

Gina Ciardi

Always receive great service. Love that there is a gluten free alternative pizza crust 🍕

We went here for breakfast on a whim and we were truly pleasantly surprised! It's a cozy little cafe downtown with a varied menu including lots of gluten free options. Our servers were SO NICE, I cannot overstate this. The food was also amazing. Definitely check it out!

Best ice cream in the city, period! Owner makes all flavors himself, sweetened with dates, gluten and soy-free. This is our new fave spot in the city for ice cream

This was the most incredible Indian food we’ve ever had! The service was so attentive and the food was rich in quality and flavor. I am gluten and dairy free and there were tons of options!

Rhonda Hammonds

The absolute best gluten free pizza ever!! My friends had the calzone and they were huge!! The staff is always nice and the place is always clean!! I would highly recommend.

Tiffany

The best pizza ever! My son has celiac disease and the fact they have GF pizza that actually tastes good is a huge plus! Great customer service, Definitely a customer as long as they are in business

Ev Tripolitis

Great experience with good vegan and gluten free (v/gf) options… got the sweet corn and tofu soup and vg fried rice with warm sake! Would recommend.

George Wells

Tasty, Gluten-Free Friendly Spot Had a great meal at Zaatar! I'm gluten free and appreciated the options—I really enjoyed the fresh falafel and the fried cheese (possibly paneer) with a bit of lemon. We shared the mixed grill with rice, which was flavorful and filling. Drinks come in cans, and they use plastic flatware, which isn’t fancy but worked fine for a casual meal. Friendly service and solid food—I'd definitely come back!

Kimberly Jackson

Finally Came here for the first time. Service was nice and quick. Although the written menu isn’t the best to read, I’m glad the cashier was nice enough to partially tell me what was gluten free. She was interrupted by the cook (maybe manager) who let me know what I could have. I got the red lentil and lemon soup. It was nice. It wasn’t hearty like I’d thought it would be, more of a puree soup. Still a nice texture and flavor. The eat in area does need a good sweep and mop on the floors. There’s no trash on the floor but it can feel kind of dirty to sit and eat in a very dusty area

Jan Heirtzler

First time at Sweetgreen, but probably not my last. My salad was delicious and filling, service was quick, and the staff was friendly. Items with gluten are clearly labeled, which is vital for me with celiac

Sara Cohen

One big priority for our wedding day was to find a vegan cake that tasted great. Sarah was so easy to work with, and her cakes were disproportionately better than the others we taste-tested! We ended up ordering a small tiered cake, which Sarah designed beautifully, and many filled mini-cupcakes, all of which were excellent. We got 12 gluten-free almond wedding cake mini cupcakes, which worked especially well. We are very grateful that Sarah helped us meet our guests dietary needs so deliciously! Pricing was also extremely reasonable for the DC metro area.

Hex is a well-lit, charming spot in Charm City. With their own collection of handcrafted kombucha and fermented veggies, which are also featured on their menu, their products can be found all over town at local shops and farmer's markets. But, stopping into their superette is absolutely worthwhile. They have a small market with local goodies from small businesses and a full menu of delightful plates, snacks and beverages (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic). If you eat vegan, vegetarian or gluten-free, there's plenty on the menu for you, as well! The service was very personable, friendly, and I felt well-cared for. I will be back for sure!
