This is a fun place to go with great gluten free options for Italian food. My server had celiac disease and was very knowledgeable. I have been here a few times and not had any problems here.
Holy smokes, Batman!
As someone who often struggles to find great food options (especially gluten-free), Irregardless blew me away.
Our waitress—whose name I regretfully forgot, and it’s not on my receipt—was phenomenal. I told her I was torn between a few choices, and she confidently recommended the Hot Fried Chicken Sandwich (GF). Honestly? One of the best sandwiches I’ve had in over 12 years. Crispy, flavorful, and totally worth the hype.
🌱 They accommodate a ton of dietary restrictions.
🍽️ Portion sizes? Generous.
🌿 Food? Incredibly fresh and delicious.
🏡 Location? Adorable.
🚗 Parking? A bit tricky, but it’s the only “meh” part.
🪑 Inside? Cozy, charming, and quiet enough to actually enjoy a conversation.
If you’re in Raleigh and want something amazing, run—don’t walk—to Irregardless.
English and Spanish: I have been to this restaurant several times and have loved it every time! They are allergy-friendly, 100% gluten-free, and are willing to make accommodations. They have this vegan cilantro sauce that is phenomenal. I’ve gotten the vegan beyond arepa with avacados, lettuce, and Fritos.
The rice and beans (the beans depend on who is making it; there have been some inconsistencies there), but everything else is good. I also love their fresh juices. The passionfruit one is my favorite.

So I have autoimmune disease called Celiac Disease and that means gluten and me do not get along at all. This place has great gluten free reviews and was super excited coming here. Well now I am about ready to lose my mind. I asked my usual questions concerning gluten free items and preparations for their food/drinks. I ordered a CIDER and got served a BEER without hesitation. This is actually absurd. When somebody asks you about gluten free items and safety precautions and then immediately within 2 minutes get served a gluten containing item, it’s just actually ridiculous. The server was apologetic and kind but not knowing the difference between beer and cider is disheartening.
Hands down my favorite place for gluten free pizza!
They are very accommodating to gluten free customers. Not only do they have gluten free pizza crust but they also have vegan cheese 😍 They have specific pizzas that can be prepared certified gluten free as shown on the menu. Some ingredients vary by location so be sure to double check. Sometimes I venture out and build my own pizza but I always verify which ingredients are safe. They also have individually wrapped gluten free brownies for dessert!
Celiac friendly. The staff was knowledgeable about cross contamination and were able to highlight everything on the menu that I could eat. Delicious food and good atmosphere.
There aren't enough words to say how fantastic this local grocery store is! Not only do they do their best to source locally, but they have a ton of Gluten Free and Plant-Based Vegan options to choose from.
They have a juice bar in the back, as well as a decent dog section. The brands that they carry for pet food is top notch. And they carry local Fox Farms & Forage mushrooms to boot.
I got lucky enough to end up being one of the owners and she is highly knowledgeable and friendly. All of the staff that I ran across in the store were the same. When it comes to grocery shopping, this is definitely going to be one of my regular go-to's, even though it's not as close to me. If you haven't checked this place out yet, you are definitely missing out!
Love the gluten free options! The specialty lattes are on point. Customer service was great and the ambiance was both comfortable and eclectic. The library is a delight. There are places to work, converse, read and listen to music. Highly recommend!
Service and food were great! My only disappointment is that HQ is changing their menu and taking several items off including one of my favorite gluten free foods…street noodles.
Yikes. Don’t even know where to start. Long story short - don’t come here. We waited over an hour and a half for our food and after that we walked out. Never typically leave reviews for restaurants but this was an exception because it was so bad. I mean the worst restaurant experience I’ve ever had. We kept getting different excuses from the waiter and the manager. At one point it was that “gluten free pizza takes longer” (which has never been a hold up in the past at Mellow), another time it was “the kitchen made your orders wrong,” and the third time it was “the kitchen lost your ticket and your order hasn’t been made.” After over an hour and a half of waiting and the server asking us our order again and getting the order wrong on the ticket, we decided to leave. Manager and waiter never seemed to care that we had been waiting over an hour and a half, there was no sympathy or apologies, and they were rude. Exceptionally bad customer service. Other tables were waiting for their food and the food pick up section had a large amount of people waiting a long time too. So don’t count on pick up being timely either. Understand delays can happen because of staff shortage and busy hours, but the restaurant was half empty and tons of servers standing around. None of our group will be coming back. Highly recommend you don’t go here or if you really want Mellow Mushroom to visit the Cary or Durham location.
Love that it’s completely gluten free I have celiac and anxiety when trying new places but my biggest concern was what to eat I chose the khalessi bowl and hot mocha omg soooo gooooo if you like clean juice you will love this my partner had avacado toast and couldn’t tell it was gf wish I lived closer
This was my first visit to Bad Daddy's. I have Celiac disease, so gluten free options are extremely important to me, and it's a real treat for me to have a proper burger-in-a-bun rather than a lettuce wrap, even if it is a GF bun (they tend to fall apart without gluten to hold them together; no fault of the restaurant). My burger was delicious; I'll definitely come back when I need a burger fix. However, my review is mixed because I found the ambience lacking - the music was loud and of what I considered to be an obnoxious selection (personal taste, I know, but hey, it's my review). Also my menu was dirty, which was a real turn-off. A few customer-focused tweaks and it could be a five-star experience for me, but currently it's not.

Very good burgers, with gluten free options both for buns and for sides. The medium rare beef burger just melts in your mouth, and the gluten free chicken tenders and tater tots are crispy on the outside, soft on the inside.
The wait is also quick, we've been here twice and got our food within 10 minutes.
We ate our food before I could remember to take photos, so here's the clean plate club.
They also have a rewards club that offers free burgers and such, if you like app/rewards clubs.
It saddens me to write a negative review. My husband and I order all the time. How are the past two times there’s been issues. I have a gluten allergy, therefore always have to order the gluten-free pizzette. It’s one of my favorites in Raleigh! The past two times it’s come on the normal pita. The store was very kind on fixing the issue the first time. However, tonight I called and everything else came fine and normal except for mine. I called back and explained the situation and thanked them that we at least had the gluten-free pita. I spoke to a very sweet woman who then transferred me to this man. I am only assuming he Is the manager And if he is, I’m so sorry. All he kept saying was it was not his fault it was DoorDash’s fault and that I was being rude. I was crying. I just had surgery and my emotions are everywhere but the one thing I wanted was my gluten-free fig mint pizzette and this guy was just telling me I was being rude and hurting his feelings. I don’t know when crying and getting upset was being rude. If it is, I apologize. However, I will think twice before ordering or going to Sassool
LOVE this place! The pizza is so good and there’s so many gluten free options. This place has the best gluten free pizza I’ve ever had! The drinks are cheap and the staff is always friendly. My only complaint is I don’t think the restaurant is very clean (referring to bathrooms and dining room) , but I like the food so much that I’m still giving 5 stars.
I found my new go-to spot! I'm looking for healthy spots to eat (mainly gluten free and dairy free options). The food at Happy & Hale is not only healthy and meets my dietary needs but it's also SO DELICIOUS! Everyone working at this location is extremely friendly and makes you feel really welcome and at home. I met the owner and he's super friendly as well! Try JP's gluten free desserts - you will not be disappointed!
Go to spot for lunch. Food is always fresh and a great way for me to eat healthy and feel full after! Plenty of vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options.
Review in English + Spanish
This bakery was such a gem to find! The inside is super cute, and they offer a nice variety of products—including some vegan, gluten-free, and nut-free options. Usually, they have about 1 to 3 flavors available that meet those needs, but they can sell out quickly, so I recommend ordering ahead or stopping by earlier in the day.
My favorite is their vegan, gluten-free strawberry cupcake—it tastes like there's real jam mixed into the frosting. You can really taste the strawberry throughout, and it's just the right balance of sweetness.
That said, one thing to note: they store the gluten-free cupcakes on the top shelf of the display with non-gluten-free items, which could be an issue for people with celiac disease or serious cross-contamination concerns. Also, there have been a couple of times when the cupcake quality wasn't consistent, which was disappointing—but most of the time, they taste great.
The frosting is on the sweeter side and very generously applied. If you're not big on sweet frosting, I actually recommend saving some to spread on other baked goods (I do that!) or sandwiching the cupcake by cutting it in half.
I've also had coffee from here, and I've never had a bad reaction to any of their drinks or baked goods. Just a heads-up: there's limited street parking nearby, and it's paid—so plan ahead if you're driving.
Overall, a lovely spot worth checking out—with just a few things to keep in mind if you have dietary restrictions.

Finding this bakery was a gem! The interior is gorgeous, and they offer a wide variety of products, including vegan, gluten-free, and nut-free options.

My favorite is their vegan and gluten-free strawberry cupcake—it tastes like it has real jam mixed into the frosting. You can taste the strawberry flavor throughout the cupcake, and it has the perfect balance of sweetness.
That said, one thing to note: they store the gluten-free cupcakes on the top shelf of the display case alongside the gluten-free ones, which could be an issue for people with celiac disease or serious cross-contamination issues. Also, there have been a couple of occasions where the quality of the cupcakes has been inconsistent, which was disappointing, but most of the time, they are delicious.
The frosting is quite sweet and applied very well. If you're not a big fan of sweet frosting, I recommend saving some to spread on other cakes (I do!) or cutting the cupcake in half.
I've also gotten coffee from here and have never had a negative reaction to any of their drinks or pastries. A warning: street parking nearby is limited and paid, so plan ahead if you're driving.
In short, a lovely place worth visiting, with a few things to keep in mind if you have dietary restrictions.

10/10 recommend!!! The food was so good and the staff was exceptionally friendly! I have a gluten intolerance and they were so knowledgeable and accommodating!!
Laid back, good portions of delicious food, good service. A great variety for multiple tastes. Lots of gluten free, soy free options so I get to *choose* from the menu. That doesn't happen often. I didn't think to take the photo before i ate, but this is the jackfruit biryani which was fabulous!
Always good food and such reasonable prices omg! Lots of clearly marked options for gluten free (and vegan) with apps, entrees and desserts. Love it here!
Abhi and Sophie were amazing!! The food was delicious (tons of gluten free and vegetarian options), and the staff were welcoming and fun to talk to. First time visit and can’t wait to be back!
Decent cappuccino and breakfast sandwich with gluten free bread was great! Service was very fast! Went in on a Tuesday around 830am. Place was very busy, all tables full, four or five people ahead of me in line and others waiting for orders, and I was still in and out in less than 10 minutes. They had counterculture and black and white coffee available. Roast dates on available whole bean coffee bags were within a week.
Vegan, lactose free, and gluten-free menu: ask for it
Overall, above average; could use some improvement ( seating is a bit tight ( we can hear the full conversation sometimes) )

Love this place! It’s a perfect spot of girl’s night. You can sit with your friends and leisurely enjoy a great night of food and drinks. One of my friends was also gluten free and they were very diligent on making sure nothing got cross contaminated for her.
If you’re on the hunt for the ultimate pizza experience, look no further than V Pizza in Brier Creek, Raleigh, NC! This place is a slice of heaven that has taken my taste buds on a thrilling ride, and I can’t recommend it highly enough!
Let’s start with the pizza. Oh my goodness, where do I even begin? Tastes like it was made with love in a secret Italian kitchen. Each bite is a celebration of flavor that had me dancing on the table. And for gluten-free friends, fear not! They’ve got gluten-free options that are so good, you might find yourself questioning your commitment to gluten altogether!
V Pizza has this cozy, welcoming vibe that makes you feel right at home. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring you have everything you need to enjoy your meal. It’s the kind of place where you can kick back, let your hair down, and indulge in some serious pizza bliss.
But wait! The adventure doesn’t end with the pizza. Right next door is Flask, the cocktail lounge that’s basically the cherry on top of this pizza sundae. After savoring every cheesy bite, I strolled over to Flask, and let me tell you, it’s like stepping into a chic speakeasy! The cocktail menu is impressive, with inventive drinks that are as delicious as they are stunning. Every drink is rich, flavorful, and sophisticated. The bartenders are true mixologists who pour their heart and soul into every drink.
The best part? You can order from Flask and enjoy your cocktails right at V Pizza! Or vice versa! So, if you’re feeling fancy, you can sip on a delightful cocktail while devouring your pizza. Talk about a winning combination!
In conclusion, V Pizza in Brier Creek is an absolute must-visit for anyone in the Raleigh area. With amazing pizza, a fabulous cocktail lounge next door, and a vibe that makes you feel like family, it’s the perfect spot for date nights, family outings, or just treating yourself. I can’t wait to go back for more pizza and cocktails! 🍕🍹✨
Food was so fresh and flavorful! We got the Nafkot Combo (vegetarian)and hubby got Bonza Shero (beef stew) and it was just as great!
Ask them for the spice powder on the side it was a pop of flavor!
Our server was so kind and sweet her name was Zenebe! She explained it all to us!
It was all gluten free!
Decor was festive and beautiful ❤️
I've been here a few times (and done an in-depth review that Google has decided doesn't exist anymore for some reason) and really like it.
They have a lot of gluten free and vegan options, especially as taco fillings. They offer vegan cheese, sour cream, rice and beans also.
The menu is well labeled. I would've taken more pictures of it, but they were on my last review that has now mysteriously disappeared. So I'll have to add more menu pics when I go back again.
Overall, I really like the food and the atmosphere there. Good choices for everyone in your party, no matter the dietary restrictions. So this is a place I'd highly suggest checking out if you're in the area.
***Update 5/22/25***
I took my daughter here for her birthday and we both really enjoyed it. I got the Red Chilaquiles with the vegan chicken, vegan cheese and vegan sour cream. I was told that this time, the only vegan meats that weren't gluten free were the carnitas and the beef. But it can change, depending on the sourcing, so make sure you ask each time if you require gluten free.
My daughter got a chicken quesadilla and a beef taco. She really liked the beef in the taco and the quesadilla overall, except for the chicken. So are says next time she'll just get a beef quesadilla and combine the best of both worlds.
I have celiac disease which means I’m severely allergic to gluten and any cross contamination with gluten will cause a bad reaction for me. This specific jersey mikes is the best at accommodating for me. When I ask for gluten free bread they always ask if it’s preference or allergy. When I let them know I have an allergy they immediately clean everything off, change gloves, and use a separate knife. At this point I visit so frequently that some workers remember my exact order when I walk through the door and always clean everything off for me. I feel so safe eating here and I’ve never felt sick after. Today the lady working made me feel so safe as she cleaned everything off and let me know she didn’t wan’t me to feel sick!
This restaurant is exceptional. My husband loves the biscuits and apple butter. I can't eat them since I have a gluten allergy. I love the vegan collard greens and moon dusted potatoes. The wait was long on Saturday, but well worth it. Our waitress was superb also. Can't wait to go back again!
This place is incredible! If you’re in downtown Raleigh, you need to come check it out. The food is on point and it has a really cool vibe.
Also, They have a good bit of gluten-free options.
