Top 7 Gluten-Free Breakfast Spots to Delight in Oro Valley

Richard Messenger

Harvest was our go to place for a safe gluten free meal. The food is very good but the big disappointment was that they have outsourced their homemade gluten free bread. My wife loved their homemade crusty gf herb bread. She got to experience good bread like everyone else at the table. Now their bread is made elsewhere and it’s a loaf of plain white bread. I realize there aren’t as many gf patrons but how hard was it to make gf bread? You’ve lowered your standard on GF options. Now you are like any other restaurant. Please bring it back!

Carrabba's had an inviting atmosphere and pretty good service. I was delighted to find a wide variety of gluten-free options and interesting dishes on the menu. I was really excited to try the chicken trio, but it was disappointing as two of the three were over seasoned, and the third was kind of bland. Sorry to be so picky, but I ate the bland one and left most of the others untouched. The vinaigrette on the salad tasted just like the generic brand at Fry's and probably is, which I wouldn't mind if the restaurant weren't trying so hard to be slightly more upscale. My two companions ordered the same dish, linguine pescatore, and had wildly differing views. One loved it, and the other didn't care it, though I will admit that the one who didn't like it has a very sophisticated palate. All of which just goes to show that taste is subjective. I will give them another chance because it could have been an off day or I just picked the wrong dish. I don't think it's fair to write a restaurant off just because of one experience. I'll update the review when that happens, but it could be awhile.

Dropped by Ace to get a battery for car fob, looked over at this very nice patio- full of people scarfing, and decided to add a stop! Approx 11 am on Sunday 😋 I wanted to eat outside: so you go in, pass the simply amazing bakery displays (if you can) order, pay, get a number and grab a seat. Whew Not eating gluten or pork ( not celiac though) there are usually less choices- but there were a few tasty looking options -yay I ordered the “Three Breakfast Tacos” Took my number and hit a sweet table in the shade Inside it was getting crowded with all the lucky people converged around the bakery display - I was jealous. I bet they had some gluten free options, But I still don’t need the calories The server grabbed me some water and I prepared to WAIT. It took about 10-12 minutes and out came a beautiful display of yum yum CRISPY tacos 😀 Oh YES! The shells were amazing! Crispy, yet easy to bite, not soft, but easy to bite thru-truly the best shells I’ve EVER had The pico and sour cream just topped it off I think I set a record scarfing these beauties up. It was … embarrassing 😳 I’d already paid (and tip is when you pay up front) So I could slink off quickly with my pride intact And lettuce hanging from my lip Will I go back? YES FOR SURE Try this little gem tucked in a strip mall ( by Trader Joes) You’re welcome ☺️

Not the best burger and am not sure about the integrity of their gluten free.

I visit here whenever I visit my P's in Arizona. It's a family tradition to take my nephew here once a week. Awesome staff; they remember your name (not the most common customer service experience). The food is solid to excellent; especially for the price. It's standard Americana : Burgers; Nachos and Excellent Sweet Potato Fries. I just turned 40 and I'm the youngest person there by 30 years. So if you're a pretentious hipster this is not your place. I'm sure there's a Michelin-starred taco truck that nobody knows about in Tucson somewhere. Everyone is super-friendly (including customers) which contributes to a warm experience. The interior decor is dated but who cares? If I wanted avant-garde chill Electronica blasting during my meal I can find that in plenty of places back home in Chicago. My dad has Ciliac (he can't digest glutenl and there's never been a problem here. Good food at great prices.

Great salads. Wishthey had the gluten free bread advertised on the website but the food is always fresh and good.

I love this place for breakfast, even though there is always a bit of a wait. Lots of gluten free options!
