Top 50 Gluten-Free American Spots to Enjoy in Indianapolis

Hannah Christian

My husband and I visited for breakfast. Very nice atmosphere. The staff was kind and helpful. The food was delicious. Gluten free options, including some gluten free waffles and coconut cake. Delicious!

As someone with celiac disease (gluten intolerance), it is always a challenge for me to find a restaurant where I can eat without worries. I was completely thrilled at Harry & Izzy’s. As soon as I entered I was warmly welcomed and immediately offered a separate gluten-free menu - a big plus! After placing the order, I was personally spoken to by the manager to ensure that all details about my intolerance were correctly understood. This extra level of attention immediately made me feel good. When the food finally arrived, it was also served personally by the manager - a sign of how seriously allergies and intolerances are treated here. And the food? Excellent! Taste at the highest level - I have rarely felt so safe and at the same time so pampered in a restaurant. A big thank you to the whole team at Harry & Izzy’s

Nice looking place, ridiculous that you have to walk all the way around from the street to try to find the entrance. My wife and I ordered 2 different burgers and they were both undercooked and the gluten free buns were dry and awful. Never coming back here again.

Brooklynn Filstrup

Super nice staff 100% gluten free!!!

Amanda Elsner

I am an admitted Cafe Patachou addict... but I swear their chicken salad sandwich has restorative powers! And only place in town I know of you can get gluten free waffles!! 💙

Dan Pete

The roasted brussels sprout appetizer is amazing! Also, pair your meal with one of the CH house wines. We chose a smooth merlot with our dinner and will do so again, it was that good. Our server was very attentive and professional, very knowledgeable on the menu and wines. He insured that my meal was prepared gluten-free which I greatly appreciated. Reservations are recommended on the weekends.

Jonathan Hilber

We make this a usual stop about once every 3 months. Service was far better this time than last. My wife has to be gluten free and she hasn't had any issues when eating here! The tacos are fantastic!

Chris Patrick

Good food, great beverages. I was pleasantly surprised by the gluten sensitivity section of the menu

Marimar LaBelle

Cafe Audrey has been a go-to for my gluten-free pancake needs for 1.5 years now! I only give 4/5 stars because sometimes the cakes/toast can be a bit dry. Their cinnamon sugar butter paires well with the pancakes. They're on the expensive side, but the people there are friendly and welcoming. They have really good mimosas with different flavors. I like the pineapple and the sunrise grenadine mimosas! It's less packed during the week and in the mornings before noon. On the weekends, if you go in the morning before 11, you can sit yourself. I would recommend going before noon to avoid waiting since the place is so small, they don't really have a waiting area.

I love this place. I have Celiac Disease and they are extremely accommodating. I forgot to mention it on my online order and called them and they immediately went and let the kitchen staff know it was a special order. Also, don't sleep on the tots. They're amazing.

Theodosia Clemens

It’s a super beautiful restaurant and the food was really tasty. I was disappointed when I read and was told that the restaurant has Gluten Free Options, but that you don't have a separate gluten free fryer.. It really limited the options down to what is actually gluten free, and not just called gluten free because it has gluten free flour. Cross contamination for someone with Celiacs disease or a gluten allergy can really be dangerous. It was also very expensive for it not being gluten free product. Other than that, it was really nice and our server was sweet. CELIACS: NOT ACTUALLY GLUTEN FREE ⚠️

Candy Kuhl

The gluten-free cheeseburger was delicious! Although the French fries are not gluten-free, I opted for a side salad instead. Overall, it was a very satisfying meal.

Amy Lathrop

Went to Seasons 52 for a work dinner and was very impressed with the service our waitress Dominque provided. I have a gluten restriction and when the company ordered apps, I asked if one was GF. She checked for me and explained it wasn't but went above and beyond by bringing me out some gluten free bread to munch on. Which by the way was delicious. She then proceeded to bring out a GF menu for me and when it came time for dessert, she educated me on what my options were. Having food restrictions can sometimes make eating out less enjoyable however Dominque's service made my experience a breeze.

Alicia Mendoza

Sam P was a great server! Abundant gluten free options. Will be back again!

Shalyse Ise

Food was very good. Our server Alyssa was very nice. Lots of vegan and vegetarian options as well as gluten free

Dana Vogt

A safe place for celiac/gluten free! One of the best gluten free burgers I've had!

Allison Henderson

Delicious food and great service! There were lots of gluten free options. Our server, Scott, was so helpful and professional!

Trevor Darley

Absolutely amazing! The staff were very friendly, accommodating and careful with my Celiac / gluten intolerance, and the food was delicious. I attached a photo of my Rainbow Trout with chimichurri (I wrote "FISH" with my rice, which was an excellent addition to the meal)

Kimberly Wiselogle

Amazing service. Extremely through and safe with a Gluten Allergy. Highly recommend the Metro Diner and Casey as a server. 😊

V. L. Gall

Yes they have gluten free options

Edward Klasky

The chicken tender meal was over cooked and seemed like it came out of a frozen bag! I got a plate of tail end fries and the waitress forgot my cup of chili. Thankful now! The double smash burger was dripping wet in grease if you like that kind of thing YUK! The gluten free bun was dry and just fell apart. Now I understand why nobody was in the place. First and last time here!

Lindsey Teal

We love Fogo! Shellie and Alex were amazing tonight for our dinner. We really enjoy not only the food but the service as well. I have a gluten allergy and they go to great lengths to make sure they offer safe gluten free options! (Every meat and the market table are completely gluten free!)

Richard Spartan

I loved everything I ate. Portion for cost is fair. I wish the gluten free option wasn’t so strict with using corn on corn.

Abigail Van Houten

Get experience, friendly staff, delicious food, and so many choices. I very much appreciate the gluten-free options. I recommend 100%

Richard Nussle

Great restaurant close to downtown. The service is great and the servers are knowledgeable about the menu and wine. They always have a vegan and gluten free entree. When you first sit down you get a small glass of champagne which is a nice touch. On our last visit we got the smoked carrots and they were shockingly good. The carrot soup was excellent and then for entrees I got long trumpet mushrooms and my wife got the Sacchetoni en Brodo. She said hers was good. The peanut parfait is amazing and a must get to finish the meal. It is on the pricier side but it is with it in my opinion.

Scott Kelly

Extra thick cut, 98% fat free, and cured well. Best of all, it's gluten free for a person with celiac disease like me. What am I talking about? It's Kirkland's Signature Premium Extra Thick Steak Strips, of course! You can't go wrong with this food package for a car trip to a city like Indianapolis for a convention you've been looking forward to attending for over six years. It especially hits the spot after you've been waiting over 3 hours for food at a restaurant that, once delivered, wasn't cooked properly and didn't match your order nor met your dietary restrictions that you asked about (and which was never answered by staff). But don't worry, Kirkland's Steak Strips won't put you in the hospital - they're already cooked, ready and safe to eat. Kirkland's Steak Strips are so good even at 10pm, after a long evening of waiting for an order that actually got cancelled by an inept Liquid Death-chugging manager after yourself and your friends expressed concerns over your wait countless times, being told again and again that it would just be 5 more minutes until your food arrived. But you know what you don't have to wait for? Kirkland's Steak Strips. They're always ready for you, sealed in that snazzy black bag and packed with a blast of flavorful protein. Costco is there for those who care about what they eat and want to have a good time chowing down. For everyone else - especially in Indianapolis - there's Punch Bowl Social, where you can go to play a tournament of Exploding Kittens at your table and eat... well, as it turned out for me, absolutely nothing!

Samantha Koelmel

Love how Metro Diner has gluten free toast on menu! Always will come out of my way for the accommodations. Bonnie was a great server even with my 2 year old throwing a plate!

Angela Eck

Delicious food, wonderful service, and comfortable atmosphere. I will be coming back for sure. I had a steak, salad, and baked potato, all of which were delicious. If you need to eat gluten free, be sure to ask for no croutons on your salad.

Mike McDermott

Choose this because gluten sensitive person in our party. I had the mushroom burger with nothing else and it filled me up.

Sarah Merritt

I'm from out of the area. We came in for a wedding so there were daily obligations. I'm always gun shy with restaurants in general, so especially so with fast food because I have mild celiac's and other food sensitivities. I was blown away by this late night take out spot. I got a gluten free bun for my daughter's cheeseburger and I am still (2 weeks later) grateful for the salad I got that night. Not to mention the stellar ice cream. It was real ice cream! Not like the frozen vegetable oil foam you get at other fast food restaurants. I almost polished off the whole pint my daughter insisted she'd share with me, then refused when the time came. Hahaha. Kids.

Alex Carter

Mesh is yet another Cunningham restaurant with excellent food, service, and ambiance. Had the coravina and peanut butter pie, both of which were exquisite. The coravina was a delightful blend of curry, pineapple, and coconut flavors balanced with savory and perfectly fried rice and roasted carrots. The peanut butter pie also was delicious, and the heavy flavor of the peanut butter was well balanced with cream. I also appreciate their range of gluten-free , vegetarian, and vegan options. Will definitely be coming here again!

Jessica Claypool

It was Thanksgiving night when my husband and myself met some friends for dinner. I am gluten free and have a sensitive stomach so finding good breakfast food can be quite challenging at times. I got scrambled eggs which were heavenly! My husband got their dulce de leche pancakes and said they were very tasty! Our friend got berry pancakes with eggs and hashbrowns and bacon. His wife got the grand slam breakfast combo, pancakes, scrambled eggs with cheese, bacon and hashbrowns. They both really enjoyed their food. Our server was busy but made sure to check on us several times. The staff seemed to be working quickly but effectively. I really enjoyed my visit and can't wait to go back!

Pam Long

They have gluten free muffins, turkey bacon, and eggs. The waitress has been there for 20+ yrs, excellent. 🤗..losing benefits? I heard they were recently sold, not sure what to expect..seeing new people, no longer offering Denny punch cards.😥

Stephen Ogden

Decent experience. Went for lunch and seemed like most of the crowd were seniors. No problem with that, just surprised me. Food was decent, but a little challenging to eat gluten free. But they’ll help you figure it out. You just have limited options.

Jeff Duncan

I require a gluten free bun on my sandwich as I'm celiac, so I appreciate the caution that they convey on cook orders and customer receipt. Even the employee that brings out the order to the car rereads the order back to you even though you are assigned a identity sticker they put on your driver's side mirror.

Brad Carroll

Food was excellent. Would have given 5 stars for service for waitress but host that sat us was a bit rude. My wife has celiac had she did not have any reaction after choosing allergy friendly items. She said best shrimp she's had in indy- doesn't compare to Gulf Coast fare. I had best ribeye in awhile. They really haven't raised prices a lot compared to elsewhere. They were already a little high to begin with. If they had proportionately raised prices according to inflation it would be too expensive. Really enjoyed our dinner.

Eric Schwan

The food is good, and some of the upgrades are a little bit ridiculous- as a Gluten-free, border Line celiac- they are charging $4.00 for a Gluten-free Bun- seriously? What kind of bread are they serving? Certainly not Shaparos ! Not a good idea guys! Every where else- 2 bucks…

Steve Murray

We were in town to have dinner with daughter and her husband and their two high school children before we went to hear Dr. Tyson talk. The food was tasty the service was what made the evening so special. Took care of our people with gluten issues with the minimum of fanfare. It was the perfect place to have a meal with 3 generations in attendance. We had fun and everyone got their hearts desire to eat. Thank you all for making our meal together memorable.

Wish there were more gluten-free options. It would be easy with the tacos to offer a corn tortilla. Heck, regular customers might prefer it too!

Heather Gillbanks

I am SO EXCITED to find a new place that understands gluten free!

Tyler Richardson

Never knew this place was here. Great food! Gluten free items were not marked on menu but servers are well trained. They have gluten free flours but it's a shared frier. They do have gluten free buns though. I'll DEFINITELY go back (also try the chili potato skins!)

Allan Stewart

Some gluten free options, but that doesn't seem to be a priority. Service was fine, food was decent, atmosphere was consistent with what you'd expect.

S Conley

Good place to get a good dinner salad, or a burger. They have gluten free buns for the burgers.

Stephanie Crockett

My husband and I dined here for dinner and will definitely be back! First off, our waiter was so nice and attentive and communicated with us so well throughout the meal, on how much time it would be, etc. We started with the Gluten (bread) plate and Brussels and Burrata (which comes served over polenta), and hands down the brussels are the best appetizer I've ever had. Then, I had the flat iron which was cooked perfectly and had tons of flavor. My husband had the Short Rib Spacatelli which was also incredible and had plenty of meat with handmade pasta. We finished with the chocolate pot de creme and there wasn't a drop left, it was so delicious. Definitely a great experience all around!

Patrick Kaufman

This place is Overrated. I grew up in "hipster central" Portland, OR in the 90's. This place is trying too hard. The beet salad was amazing and a healthy portion. Everything else was small portions. Our waiter was attentive but had almost too much energy. The menu had no congruence. I'm sure there are marvelous dishes here but way, way overpriced for Indy. Good attention to my friends celiac dietary needs. The amazing giant beet salad and their understanding of serious gluten free needs is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 3.

Anthony Rush

Amazing place to eat. We were sad they didn't have gluten free bread but everything was delicious and the service was fantastic.
