Top 33 Gluten-Free Allergen-Friendly Spots Across Rhode Island

Liz Purvis

We were in the area and looking for somewhere tasty to go for lunch, and after seeing the reviews, we decided we wanted to come to blackies! Even though we were a walk in, they were able to accommodate us and accommodate us, they did. Most of the menu can be made GF, and there are pages, upon pages to this menu. Not only did I enjoy my meal (I got the French Onion Cheesesteak with Fries and it was SUPERB 🤌🏽), but my gluten eating family also had a meal. My Dad even said it was the BEST Ruben he's ever had (and he loves a ruben). Since it was our first time there, our wonderful server was able to field all of my GF/Celiac-related questions with ease. The restaurant is owned by two lovely women: one of whom has Celiac. They have dedicated fryers, AND they have separate kitchen tools (knives, utensils, cutting boards, aprons, etc.) for the preparation of GF meals. On top of all that, my food was brought out FIRST and SEPARATELY. Our server even brought out a new bottle of ketchup with my food so that there wasn't any CC. I felt so well taken care of by the staff, and so safe while we were there, it was a new level of Celiac-care in this dining experience. I cannot more highly recommend blackies if you're ever in RI/Providence!!!

100% dedicated gluten free. Local family with Italian roots, also has some dairy free. Cookies, cupcakes, fried donuts, assorted bread and rolls.

Great (gluten free!) food, great atmosphere, and even better bartender! Max’s service was 10/10 and he makes a killer aperol spritz. We will definitely be back!

When I found out this bakery was close to where I was staying I was incredibly excited! As a gluten and dairy free gal its so hard to find baked goods that are both. When I first read the reviews for A&J I wasn’t sure if it would be a flop or not. I called ahead to see what they had for options for a gf & and df girl and I was soo excited! The filling in the eclair was top notch and the pastry was the perfect texture! Places like these make me a feel a little less isolated for the food world. thank you.

This was the best dining experience I have had in a long time. Since being diagnosed with Celiac, it is really hard to enjoy eating out without fear of “being glutened”. After reading tons of reviews and the allergy safety protocols on their website, we decided to give this place a shot. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with nothing but assurance and the staff were so incredibly kind. There is a food safety coordinator certificate on the hostess stand that is also really impressive. On OpenTable you can say if you’re celebrating something at the time of your reservation, and while I have filled this out before, no restaurant has ever acknowledged it. I mentioned in my reservation that we were celebrating our anniversary and as soon as we walked in the Food Safety coordinator who I also think is the owner told us happy anniversary, followed by the woman who walked us to our table and our waitress. At the end of our meal we were gifted a surprise gluten free crème brûlée with a candle in it! It was just the most special night with the most incredible food. Everyone was so kind. I can’t sing their praises enough.

Great service and extensive Gluten Free Menu - even desserts!

Leslie Gluten Free Finds

Separate gluten-free menu, many options, great procedures, bring gluten-free food out separately. A really fun atmosphere and a great dining experience.

My family went to Rhode Roots for the first time yesterday and were very impressed. A++ all around. My wife has celiac disease and finding gluten free safe restaurants with such an extensive menu can be challenging. We tried the clam cakes and chowder and and they were delicious. The staff was also very friendly and helpful. We can’t wait to go back and try some other items on the menu.

Sophia La Pietra

We had a phenomenal time at the moorings! The food was impeccable, and the service by our server Allie and the manager on the floor tonight was fantastic. I have gluten and dairy allergies so finding places to eat that can accommodate both allergies can be pretty difficult – especially when you are looking for something as specific as a gluten and dairy free lobster roll. This was my first time to Rhode Island and I had my heart set on having a phenomenal lobster roll bit wasn’t sure of the feasibility…the mooring did not disappoint. We will 100% be back!

Julie Young

I had an incredible lunch here yesterday! I was pretty nervous since I haven't had pizza from a restaurant since my Celiac Disease diagnosis 4.5 years ago, but our server John was fantastic. He answered all my questions, double checked things when I asked, and put me totally at ease. He reassured me they take allergens very seriously, including a separate prep area AND a separate oven for GF pizzas! I had a 1/2 pesto margherita and 1/2 chicken bacon ranch pizza, both sides were equally delicious.

Ron Baker

A large selection of gluten-free foods.

Allie Bartlett

We had Toni, and if you want an amazing, relatable waitress that will go above and beyond for you every step of the way, REQUEST TONI. This is my go-to gluten free and allergen-safe restaurant. Did I mention that the ENTIRE MENU can be made gluten free? THANK YOU TONI AND 110 GRILL for the best birthday! We WILL be back and requesting TONI. <3

I have been to TwoTen Oyster Bar and Grill in South Kingstown, RI multiple times and have always enjoyed my experience. The atmosphere is absolutely beautiful, with a stunning view overlooking the water and ample outdoor seating. The food is mostly delicious, with fresh oysters and a fantastic crab dip that I highly recommend. They also have an extensive gluten free menu and even offer sushi. However, the service can be a bit hit or miss. During my last visit, there were very long wait times despite it not being crowded and being during the week. There was also conflicting information regarding happy hour ordering times, and our waitress messed up the billing and thought she lost my credit card after giving it to her. The lobster roll was a bit disappointing as it was supposed to be hot with butter but was room temp with no butter and a bit rubbery with a soggy bun. The under seasoned fries were also a letdown. Drinks took 45 mins to arrive and the ice in the cocktail was melted already upon arrival. Overall, I would still recommend TwoTen Oyster Bar and Grill for its beautiful atmosphere and mostly delicious food. It's a step above casual dining and perfect for a fun summer meal. Just be prepared for some drawbacks in terms of service and food quality. I wouldn't hesitate to return for another visit.

The lobster nachos are outstanding!!

Tree Ferran

Had a great quick lunch at Drift. Gluten free options and allergy accommodation. Highly recommend “island time”!

Chad Wetmore

Wow! The staff at this bakery is incredibly friendly and polite. The store itself is spotless and well-maintained. I tried the Cupcake of the Day, which was a Pineapple Dolewhip flavor, and it was absolutely delicious. It tasted like summer in a cupcake! They have a wide variety of flavors to choose from, including gluten-free options. I will definitely be returning to try more of their cupcakes.

First time and ice cream is delicious and the service is incredible! They also have gluten free ice cream! Amazing!

The RI Food Dude

Really impressed by Legal Seafoods. They should have a higher rating than 3.3 on Yelp for sure. I know they have a lot of locations which is I didn’t have the highest hopes coming in. The quality of the food was terrific and the service was excellent. Great portions as well. It started with the hot/fresh rolls when we sat down. We all split the calamari - original style- which was fried nicely. However, this was the only dish that had a disappointing portion size. For close to $20, I expected more pieces. I ordered the blackened yellowfin tuna ($41). It was cooked perfectly with nice flavor. However, my favorite part of the dish was the two sides I got with it. The curried vegetable medley was tasty, but the pad Thai style quinoa was out of this world! It had that typical pad Thai taste, and the amount given was super generous. My mom ordered the crispy fish sandwich ($19). They were extremely considerate allowing her to sub out fries and coleslaw for other sides which more expensive. The fish sandwich was delicious as I had a few bites, but it could’ve used more fish itself. I also had some of my Dad’s Anna’s Baked Haddock ($28.5). The piece was enormous. It must’ve taken up half of the plate and probably weigh a pound. The buttered crumb topping was delicious and the oven roasted broccoli was cooked very well. We finished with the chocolate pudding cake ($12). It was incredibly moist and melts in your mouth. The texture was unbelievable. The molten center was fantastic and I wanted another after I finished. And I can’t believe it was gluten free. We had an amazing waitress and she really knew how to do her job well. I think her name was Madison, she’s been working there over a year. It’s very clean inside with a chill atmosphere and a huge bar in the middle. Prices are on the higher side, but not too bad for a seafood centered restaurant.

Omg I loved this restaurant so much! They are so accommodating because my mom and I couldn’t have gluten, rice, beans, or corn so they let us know what everything we thought about ordering had before we ordered it. The oysters are the BEST, and I had the king crab which was so good and so filling. My mom ordered the blackened yellowfin tuna which was also so good. Delicious food and great service 10/10. Many servers came over to check on us to see if everything was okay. There are a few places to sit: under the tent, sun room, bar, upstairs. Nice view from each seat but mostly the sun room. Definitely will be coming back when I’m in Rhode Island again.

Kathy Danis

Nearly all items on the extensive menu can be made gluten free. I had fish and chips! Which was excellent. The fish was so fresh and tender, the chips were chip/French fries. I also got a little loaf of gluten free bread! Also amazing with the cinnamon maple butter. And if you are so fortunate enough to have the server Julianne, your whole experience will be made better. You will leave feeling happier and know she truly cared about your food and dining experience. Her knowledge about gluten free food, caring attitude and willingness to go above and beyond should well be noted. I love, love love everything about this restaurant and can't wait to go back, and hope that Julianne will be working. A++++

I LOVE Yama Fuji! I have celiac disease and they have the most variety for gluten free options than any other place around. The food is always consistent and delicious and the owners are great people.

Steps User567972

They have a gluten free fryer and we were asked if we had celiac when asking about gluten-free so felt they were very aware.

Danielle Harbour

Felicia was an outstanding waitress. She was very knowledgeable on gluten-free options. Very attentive with our table as well. She was honestly one of the best servers we’ve ever had. The food was excellent! Best fish and chips I’ve ever had. My husband loved the cod sandwich and calamari. The atmosphere has a great vibe and beautiful views. We will definitely be back.

Jacquelyn Mello

I’ve never written a review on here- that’s how much I love this restaurant. The food is amazing every time I go there, also it’s the only place where I’ll move out of my comfort zone and try new things because he’s that good. I love the family oriented staff, their hospitality and authentic genuine personalities. I eat healthy and gluten free food and they go above and beyond to offer beautiful options. I just wanted to leave this review to show my appreciation for them. Thank you for taking care of my family and infusing your food/art with so much love 🙏❤️

Came to Red Robin because they were very gluten friendly. Not any more. The menu no longer lists gluten free items. No gluten free buns. Fries were burnt stale and cold

Steps User567972

They have a dedicated toaster, gluten free bread and bagels, gluten free granola for açaí bowls!

Jeanne Cherry

This is the only chain where my friend with a gluten allergy has never (knock on wood) had an issue with cross-contamination. No matter which location we have gone to, the food is always good and the staff is always friendly. Highly recommend.

Jeffrey Whittaker

Great food, plenty of gluten free options… staff very knowledgeable… but always ask is it gluten free anywhere you go

April van Es

The Indian receptionist at our hotel recommended this restaurant and with good reason. Plenty of gluten-free options like Potato Dosa appetiser and lots of vegetarian curries, like the aubergine one I ordered. Brown and pillau rice, and an interesting chickpea bread. Large portions of delicious, slightly spicy food. Very nice Lime Shrimp.

Janet Houle

Atmosphere was absurdly gorgeous 😍. Loved every minute of it! We sat outside and by one of the fires 🔥! The best of both worlds. They do alot for gluten free people.

Olivia Hannon

They were so accommodating and safe. They even got me a gluten free cheese empanada so I could have something while the rest of the table had the bread basket! They assured me of safe cooking in the kitchen to avoid any Cross contamination!
