Top 8 Gluten-Free Bars to Experience in Downtown Los Angeles

I often use the Yard House as a go to restaurant when trying to accommodate a large group. They have lots of seating and a menu that can accommodate most dietary restrictions (I.e. vegan and gluten free). The food is decent but not special but the large selection is nice with a group. They also have a great selection of craft beer.

William and Jessie were great. I had lots of gluten free questions and they walked us through everything. It was an enjoyable experience.

Celiac approved 🤞🏽 I love all their drinks, the vibe and good options. We were lucky to find parking and enjoy a wonderful atmosphere with beautiful people everywhere plus a dj too. Aguachile 🤌🏼

Delicious! Veggie & Gluten free menu. They have a separate gluten free menu. But you need to make sure to mention them you are ordering from there. Because the names of the items are the same, so I thought I ordered a gluten free item but it came with bread. To their credit they did bring me out a new one without any gluten quickly.

People are throwing 1 star reviews acting like this is a sleepy, one-TV, minor-league, suburb bar for boomers. Well, it’s not. This is THE bar to go to pre, post or during a game at the second biggest arena in the US (#1 being MSG). This basically means it’s the second biggest, awesomest, sports barriest, sports bar in the world. Thus, when it’s busy, ie, literally any time after 4 pm and all day Saturday and Sunday, it’s going to get hectic. And that’s not a bad thing. This place can be like sitting in a stadium with chants and songs and OOOs and WAHHHHs! It is incredible. Come here with a good attitude expecting that and you will leave happier than when you entered. For anyone reading reviews on what to order, uh, hi, it’s a sports bar. You don’t even need to look at a menu. Get a pitcher of whatever, some loaded tots, maybe some wings, definitely some tendies and you’re good to go. BUT WAIT - Have someone in your party that hates sports bars, beer, bar food and other delights that scream ‘Murica? Good, they’ve got an incredible chilled white wine selection, excellent keto/gluten free options designed by chefs that could throw down with the best of the Venice/SaMo healthy haunts, and restrooms fit for germophobes. Just go.

I love this place!!! They have authentic asian food,with a lot of options!! Also for who's vegan, one of the person in my party was vegan and gluten free and she was so happy with the dinner that she had! Service was fast and prompt! If you are looking for authentic asian food you have to stop here with your research!

The vegan sushi $5 for 4 pieces is bomb! And gluten free! And they have $3 large glass of juice or vegan horchata. Horchata is a must!! Very spacious place. Lots of different type of seating. There is outdoor seating.. Validated garage lower parking lot is free for 90 minutes.

Manuela is a large space in the downtown L.A. arts district serving fancy and delicious food for brunch and dinner. We only had a few items, but everything that came out of the kitchen brought to us, and nearby tables looked fantastic. Lots of points for presentation. My wife and I shared the Blistered Snap Peas (made with quinoa, feta and sesame date butter) which we thought we’re excellent and especially lovely with the mint leaves they were served with. We thought the same about the Roasted Cauliflower dish we shared (made with halawi date vinegar and almonds) which looked amazing with lots of edible colors. Our kid loved the cinnamon roll he ordered (on the small and to share menu but still $11) and said it was better than his favorite ice cream. I also had a the cream biscuits (because whenever it says “biscuits” on a menu, that’s what I automatically order. They ha good flavor but were heavy and almost croissant like with the particular flakiness of their texture. The honey and pear butters they came with were good. These were small but filling. I’d definitely come back and try the cast iron cornbread and it looks like there are good vegetarian options on the dinner menu as well. We definitely felt it was pricy and my wife wished the Black corn meal pancakes dish was gluten free as that was what she’d hope to get when she looked at the menu online. Other than that it was a pretty great experience.
