Top 18 Gluten-Free Accommodating Spots to Enjoy in Golden Oak, Orlando

k

I’ve been a loyal customer of Sofrito because their food is undeniably excellent, and they offer great gluten-free options—a rarity that I appreciate. However, my recent experiences with their service and attention to detail have been increasingly disappointing, to the point where I can no longer support this establishment. Over the course of my last three orders, there have been consistent issues. On one occasion, the chimichurri was so excessively salty that it was completely inedible. On another order, I received salad but no salad dressing; most recently, my order didn’t include a salad at all. These might seem like small issues independently, but together, they point to a pattern of carelessness that’s hard to overlook, especially considering the cost of dining here. My dish alone was over $36—at that price point, I expect the details to matter. What’s even more frustrating is how poorly the management handled these issues. When I called after the chimichurri incident, I spoke to a manager who dismissed my concerns and did nothing to resolve the problem. More recently, when I called about the missing salad, they informed me that they had just started omitting salads—something a customer shouldn’t have to find out after the fact. To make matters worse, when I called again to address these repeated problems, the manager offered only a 20% credit, claiming that they couldn’t do more because they “didn’t have the item in front of them.” This response came across as dismissive and gave the impression that the manager either didn’t believe me or didn’t care to make things right. Had we been dining in the restaurant, these issues could have been corrected immediately. But as takeout customers, we’ve been left feeling disregarded and undervalued. It’s incredibly disappointing to see such a great restaurant fail so miserably at customer service and consistency. While we gave them multiple opportunities to address our concerns, nothing was adequately resolved. Unfortunately, this will be the last time we dine at Sofrito. Excellent food can only make up for so much when the service falls so short.

Had lunch today at space 220. Our waiter Jonathan was fantastic and very helpful with our gluten allergies. He got everything prepared exactly how we wanted and it was a pleasure eating here. The food was great, the service was even better. Thank you Jonathan for making our honeymoon as special as it could be.

Lots of options for gluten free and they will bring you food not from buffet to avoid cross contamination. Personally got bacon, eggs, fruit, gf mickey waffles, Mac and cheese, shrimp, cheddar potato hash. Bacon eggs, shrimp fruit and waffles were good. Mac and cheese was not great neither was hash. Very expensive for what the food was to be honest. 60 something a person. That being said our son loved meeting the characters from the 100 acre woods.

Excellent gluten free selections. We got a Belgian waffle and it was delish. These people understand gluten free. Highly recommended. The place was crowded when we went. But the wait was short. The omelette called for American cheese which is nasty stuff. We got pepper jack as a replacement. It was fine.

All our food was fabulous from appetizers to steaks and sides! Our celiac daughter also loved it, and they did an amazing job of accommodating her special needs. They even had gluten free bread to start her meal! Justin was an amazing server who kept our food coming at just the perfect times and had us well supplied on drinks! His recommendations were also spot on. My family and I highly recommend, and we will definitely be back!

One of our favorite Disney restaurants. Get the Cheese Bread (gluten free) and the Jungle Bird

Chicken nachos are as advertised, chicken and nachos. Uninspired. If you have gluten allergy or celiac, eat somewhere else. The rolls are dry and coarse.

Vane for the gluten free pizza. It's not for celiacs or people with gluten allergy. There's cross contamination and menus specifically points that out as a disclaimer.

Diego Ascanio

The service is very good, the food not so much, I ordered gluten free pasta with marinara sauce and shrimp, the shrimp were burnt, the pasta was hard, the marinara was acceptable but nothing special

Vanessa Becker

This definitely felt like a fun storybook meal. The decor and ambiance was lovely. Food was good, My sister has celiacs disease, which can't have any possible cross contamination with gluten. Disney is always great at accommodating allergies. She was brought slightly different versions of the food I was brought. Character interactions were great, all the characters came to our table except the Queen, who summons you to her at her discretion. It was worth it for our experience.

Justin Rupp

Great gluten free options. I have celiac disease and all gluten free options on the menu were clearly marked. The staff was all very knowledgeable about gluten free options as well as knowing what cross contamination occured. I was upset I couldn't have the chips or the chicarrones because they were fried in the same oil, but was glad the staff was knowledgeable. The service was a bit slow, but everyone was very friendly and we weren't in a rush, so we didn't mind. I got the 3 tacos meal with carne asada, alambre asada, and al pastor. The food was all delicious and each taco had a distinct flavor. Will definitely be eating here again if we are in the area.

This has to be one of the best dining experiences I’ve had - not just in Disney but in my life. Make an 8:30pm reservation to enjoy dinner, a firework intermission, and finish with the key lime pie for dessert. Everything was delicious (the gluten free calamari is amazing) and our server Paul was so incredibly cool and kind. Made our final night of our honeymoon one to remember forever! This is a truly special spot!

Anna Olson

Seriously the best steaks we’ve ever had! I’m gluten free and was very impressed with how seriously the restaurant took my allergy. GF rolls, GF poutine (so, so wonderful) and then I got the filet with risotto. Service was impeccable. It’s pricey, but was well worth it!

Emily Logan

Great for accommodating gluten free! Ahead of the experience, you speak to the chef about your needs and he went over what would be substituted. They came out with everything marked, gluten free cornbread, ribs, MAC & CHEESE, and strawberry shortcake. It’s family style but the gluten free items were separate.
