Top 50 Gluten-Free Accommodating Spots to Enjoy in Scottsdale

We have been here many times now, each time the food tastes as good as it looks, which is mouth watering! The staff works very hard and efficient even though they seem a tiny bit under staffed. They’ve always been upbeat, compassionate and professional. I love their gluten free and vegetarian options since that’s what my partner is restricted in eating. It’s refreshing to have food in a restaurant that cares about how healthy and customizable their food is. I’ve tried just about every bowl they are all incredible. The sweet potatoes are yummy! You can’t go wrong ordering anything here, safe part of the neighborhood and beautiful atmosphere sitting outside or in

We had the very first issue ever today. I ordered what we have eaten many times, pancakes (gluten free), bacon and hash browns and my husband gets an omelet meal. We eat here 1-2 times a week. But I will never go back. We called in because the pancakes we got today had a weird sweet after taste possibly too much vanilla. Whatever it was we called in and talked with a manager named Molly. Molly was combative saying she just tried the pancakes and no one else has complained. I have never been treated so poorly by a manager especially if I have a legitimate issue. Her only option was to come back immediately to have them remake. I didn’t have time and said so, she said that was all she could do. She made it clear she didn’t believe me either. She also said she didn’t mind us never coming back. If their customer service is like this I will never go back. Which is sad because this was our favorite restaurant. Molly you tried to make me feel small and instead you just lost a customer for life!

Malee’s Thai is located in the heart of old town Scottsdale. The food is authentic and prices are reasonable. They can make many dishes vegan or gluten free and the portion sizes are generous. I have a decent bar with many options. I would highly recommend trying it!

This place just landed on my son’s “favorite food place of all time” list 🤣 The employees are all cheery, kind, and helpful. The ingredients for the bowls are all fresh and abundant and for any fellow gluten free eaters the sauces and noodles are all labeled! They make home made ice cream and change the flavors regularly. Tonights flavor is horchata and it is to die for! The vegetable soup is so good, too! There are also fresh brewed loose leaf teas to drink! What a wonderful place. This reminds me of a Mongolian bar b q in Puerto Penasco l. I’m wondering if it’s the same owners? Thanks guys, we can’t wait to come back!

The best gluten free pancakes we’ve eaten. Also, highly recommend the waffle. The service was outstanding!

Brandon was our server and he did AMAZING! It was a Saturday night though not very busy inside dining, yet the door dash and other deliveries are slamming the restaurant and it felt like he was virtually running the whole front of the restaurant by himself, making drinks for people, serving us very well, and assuring my girlfriend with her gluten free and vegetarian options as well as ensuring I was able to customize my order which tasted beyond what I’ve eaten before. I’ve had a lot of carne asada but their burrito customized with the carne asada is immaculate! We love the area and we can’t pass on such incredible service from Brandon and the quality of the food! Great atmosphere and gluten free / vegetarian options!

Love this place. 90% of the menu is gluten-free.

Sarita D.

I ordered a gluten-free pizza. I wish more care had been taken to add the toppings evenly.

Diane Ecker

Large menu with many vegetarian & gluten free options. Have eaten there multiple times.

graciela montes

It’s a great place with all types of food such as protein based, vegan, gluten free and even drinks! Fantastic place.

Alix Naber

Delicious food and amazing gluten free/ vegan options! The mocktails were fantastic also! Would absolutely come back.

Troy Aberle

PBJ burger with gluten free bun was 13/10!

julia jones

Great experience. The restaurant is under construction but it didn’t detract from the experience. Both the managers Eddie and Rachel were fabulous and visited with us. Laura, our waitress kept the sides coming for my gluten free husband. We couldn’t have asked for a better anniversary lunch!

This place is really cute! They have a gift shop in the lobby, with some eclectic items. The people are super-friendly; and the southern recipes are well prepared. I was, however, kind of disappointed with what I chose, which was the biscuits and gravy. I felt sick to my stomach, afterwards, for hours after, average biscuits were more like the consistency of a pre-packaged, British-style crumpet/scone consistency, plus the gravy tasted really processed with no flavor, OTHER than poor-grade , bulk seasoning mix. My roommate’s selection, though (which she let me try) was good, though, which was a scramble which had spinach, feta cheese and tasted really fresh, and didn’t disappoint in freshness and flavor. If I go back in the future. I’ll be ordering it for brunch! I also got a desert to go from the counter, which was a chocolate peanut butter ganache cupcake that was out of this world! They source their baked goods from small, local vendors in the area, and have many gluten free and vegan options!

This place is the exact home vibe you want for breakfast! They have a gluten free and vegan menu as well. Not to mention their drinks are amazing. The flights are full sized and will leave you wanting to come again!

Britaney Parks

The smoothie bowls here are my favorite lunch!!!! I am gluten free and vegan and they have quite a few options! As a massage therapist I have to be mindful of what I eat for lunch and these are perfect! No tummy sounds in the treatment room 🤣 The people here are alway so friendly and kind! 100% recommend

Bobby Olander

One of the good gluten-free italian options around us. It's a little pricy, but for my wife to be able to eat her favorite foods again... it's worth it.

John Halpern

I love this place. Being vegan and gluten free, this was a find. Great food, great drinks, amazing deal for the money. Wonderful staff that really take care of you. A must go.

Thanks to some recommendations I found on Eat Gluten Free AZ on Instagram, we stopped at Diego Pops near our hotel in Old Town Scottsdale for happy hour where all apps and margaritas are half off. They have a marked gluten free menu which is important to me as a Celiac. I was told that their fryer is dedicated but flour tortillas are stored near it, so to avoid potential cross contamination, avoid the fried foods. After being put on a 15 minute wait list, we were seated outside. The weather was fantastic so it was very comfortable in the outdoor dining area next to the bar. On the table are 6 different sauces. Try them all - my favs were the pink one and the light green serrano one. We got a frozen house blue raspberry margarita, 2 Diego (house) margaritas, a cheese quesadilla (not GF, but my husband loved it), elote (great), a bowl of tortilla soup (12/10 it was delicious), a corn cheese dip (fine) with tortillas rather than chips to avoid potential gluten cross contamination, and a pineapple pork bowl with coconut rice (not a fan.) Between ordering our drinks and when our food came out, it was like maybe 40 minutes. We didn't mind because the weather was good and we were chatting and had our drinks, but our waitress kept updating us that she was on the kitchen to bring out our stuff. We were like, "it's fine." She came out 2 more times and said the kitchen had lost our ticket. Whatever, we were in no rush. Stuff happens. She was super apologetic even though we didn't complain and the manager came over and gave us vouchers for 6 free tacos and comped our entire meal!!! We told them it wasn't necessary and we could pay but the waitress said it was thanks for being so nice and understanding. That made me feel sad that they clearly deal with a lot of rude, unreasonable people. It wasn't necessary to comp our meal or give us free taco vouchers. We did tip her in cash an amount that would have been 1/3 of the original bill. Please don't go expecting free food but if you're in Scottsdale, please go check out the food at Diego Pops and get the tortilla soup for sure.

Such a fun find! Breakfast was delicious and they had REAL gluten free options. It was also very reasonably priced and the staff was fun and quick even on a busy Sunday morning.

Great place for family fun and/or family events. Also, was very helpful when asking for gluten free options! Staff is so much fun and helpful!

Lindsay Walsh

Great gluten free options including breakfast sandwiches 🥪

They have gluten free options! I got french toast (and didn't get cross contaminated) and sampled the coffee flight. It was all delicious and we were in and out quickly.

Makenzie Renee

Good gluten free buns

Mindy Pyle

We traveled from out of town and chose this place because they had gluten free options. The staff were attentive and the food and margaritas were delicious. During our visit, we also had an unexpected medical issue with my daughter and all of the staff that was able to help were ready to assist. Their actions show that they truly care about the well-being of their customers and the experience you have while dining there.

Chelsea

Had a lovely dinner here a few weeks ago. We got the NY strip, sautéed corn, Mac and cheese, Brussels sprouts, sugar snap peas as well as a couple drinks. Everything was delicious and the service was top notch. Really appreciate how many options they have for gluten-free and the waiters were super accommodating with other allergens as well. Two of us had extensive food allergies and we still had a lot of variety of food with a couple small adjustments by the staff. Will definitely be back.

Emily Kehner

Happy to find a spot with a few vegan options for breakfast. We enjoyed the crispy polenta tacos, tempeh breakfast bowl, and a modified avocado toast (subbed sourdough for the egg bread, subbed tempeh for the bacon/egg, and added sliced tomato) A few vegan side options as well, like the crispy polenta, breakfast potatoes, fresh fruit, beans and rice. Not the *most delicious* food we’ve ever had but we were so glad to go somewhere with real vegan options and something for the whole family (including kids, gluten free, and vegans)

Gluten free selection/dish was lovely!

This place was so good we ordered from here 4 times while on vacation. Incredibly grateful they had amazing gluten free options. I think Naperville, IL would be a great spot to open a location… ;)

Jeff Wheeler

Such a wonderful experience and their gluten free options are amazing. I highly recommend this place, high quality food and service!

Isaac Korff

Great food!! I wish the had more Gluten free options but I know it’s hard and it always tastes horrible so this place gets it!! Lol. Regardless this place puts food before people have some decency 😂

Delicious, consistent, great for my vegan and gluten free bestie :^)

I have celiac. We discussed the issue extensively with the server who assured me I was in a good spot and all would be fine. Unfortunately, it wasn’t. They messed up the order and brought out a wonton taco plated with the corn taco and the server advised the entire plate was gluten free. Only after eating the wonton did I discover the issue. The server apologized and contacted a manager. That’s where things took a bad turn. The manager, a very young blonde female, who clearly couldn’t be bothered with severe food allergies, came out, referred to the situation as a “small issue”, proceeded to blame me, and then offered three separate excuses for why this happened. Setting aside that each excuse was unsatisfactory, it was abundantly clear neither she, or the restaurant, took food allergies seriously. My valentines date/dinner was entirely ruined, not to mention a very expensive trip to Arizona, for which I am only on day 1 and will inevitably spend the rest of the trip in the hotel bathroom. Despite being celiac, I’m a foodie and eat in some of the best restaurants across the country. This may be some of the worst service, and particularly management, I’ve ever seen.

Absolutely the best experience, everyone for the hostess to the waiter were extremely friendly and the gluten free pancakes are delicious!!!

Cathleen

Love their skinny menu. More gluten free options please.

Loren French

Really great gluten free pizza!

NOONLIT SAGE

I enjoyed the fact that this cafe had gluten free crepe options! It's hard to find, and so it made everything all the better. Lovely staff, super clean and vibrant atmosphere. Would come back.

Tons of gluten free options. Will also give sliced cucumbers in addition to the pita bread served at the table. The whole restaurant is filled with unbelievably delicious spices. Is very authentic in atmosphere and food. Went with a Persian friend who commented that everything reminded her of her Grandmother’s cooking. Will for sure be back. Always order the Mast-o-musir, it is the Persian “ranch” especially for the rice. It is the best sauce you will ever taste.

Always make me happy and feel included and like I’m not missing out as a Dairy Free and Gluten Free person. I get Barros Special on GF Crust and No Cheese however that do have DF cheese! I got a GF and DF Sub this time for a meal the next day and the bread they use is amazing.

Staff here are so sweet! It was really nice to have gluten free options as a celiac. Prices are up there, but I guess that’s par for the course in 2025 and as a GF option. If I was a local I would return!
