Apparently I’m not a fan of gluten free bread and pastries. Things tasted dry, we’re crumbly and just lacked the texture I am used to. Flavors were ok, I’m sure it’s a wonderful place for those with the dietary restrictions.

My sister and I will stop by here just to grab their Buffalo Cauliflower Bites *Drooling* and we absolutely refuse to share we have to get our own order. The vibe is anywhere from casual and relaxing on the patio to romantic and fine dining inside. The menu is constantly evolving with the seasons. I have tried many of their burgers as a lettuce wrap and with the gluten free bun, pumpkin doughnut holes, asparagus risotto, and peach pie! Revolution never disappoints. They share a parking lot with Temple Coffee & a :10 second walk to the Coop or Pushkin Bakery!

This place was excellent. They not only have amazing cheese and wine options but you can get sandwiches and mac and cheese which can come gluten free. It's the first time since being diagnosed with Celiac I had mac and cheese which was so delicious. Our server was fantastic and knowledgeable. Definitely would recommend and go back if we are up that way.

Cindy Taylor

I love this place. Yes, there is usually a line…because the food is awesome! The staff is friendly and courteous. They have gluten free options. I have Celiac and have never had a reaction from eating here. Hint: Try the gluten free blueberry, cornmeal pancakes with real maple syrup. Yum!! They don’t accept credit cards; but, have an ATM in the restaurant with a low fee. Definitely a local gem.

Nancy Myers

Amazing food across the board! Loved it. They were very accommodating with my gluten allergy and provided many delicious options. We ate on the patio, they have misters for warm weather and the atmosphere was lovely.

Marcia Luger

The staff was attentive, cheerful and helpful. The food was excellent and included gluten free items. We will be back.

Mark Jordan

Gluten free options. Amazing food. Great portion sizes!

Heather Carlisle

Really good food and they have Gluten free options in the menu! Their menu is seasonal so it may vary on the different options but will always be an option! They have vegan options too!

My family just had the most amazing experience at the Melting Pot in Sacramento. Jacob, an amazing young man from Kentucky, took care of all of our needs. He was kind, funny, warm, attentive, and moved like lightning! We were a very difficult group! 1 vegan, 1 flexitarian 😋, 1 vegetarian gluten free 😵, and 3 meat eaters! Talk about difficult. But he managed us all with complete ease and an attitude that will carry him far in life. We had a delicious meal, a warm and memorable family moment, and just an amazing experience. Thank you Jacob! You made our night!

They have lots of gluten free options including some appetizers and desserts. I ordered the empanadas, meatloaf, and chocolate cake. The food came out in a timely manner and everything was delicious! The server was nice and checked in frequently despite being very busy.

Andrea Rose

Gluten free dessert heaven! This place is amazing and there are many gluten free options that taste amazing! No dry sadness here. The staff was friendly and I love the old diner theme. The servings are generous and I will definitely come back next time we are in town.

Abigail Sedra

I have been wanting to come here for years and finally did today. I regret not coming here sooner and we will be back! My bf has celiac disease so we ordered the bacon and egg (gluten free), Hawaiian cowboy, whole herd, and home on the range (gluten free), and garlic bread. The garlic bread has whole cloves on it and was insanely good, and so was everything else. The pizza place down the street that we used to go to religiously every week for their Tuesday deal left us hanging after we tried ordering several times over like 30 minutes, so we gave up on them. We had group plans and needed pizza fast. This place knocked it out of the park with the entire group. Thanks for turning our night around!

Cindy Taurone

La Rosa Blanca has an extensive gluten free menu. They are delicious!

This is the one at the mall. Our family has issues with Gluten, and they have gluten free buns!! The food is always good. The service is always good, and I'm happy to go back when we're at the mall. I love their mashed potatoes, their waiters are patient when we change the dishes due to allergies and I'm thankful to have a good place to go to. I also appreciate they're not wasting paper or passing menus around as we can simply look it up on our phone which is convenient. It can be challenging eating out with an allergy, I'm thankful I can go here and have options. The waiter even knew we couldn't have French fries due to cross contamination this time!

Jordan Hogan

A fantastic spot for breakfast! The full English tasted good and they even catered to my gluten allergy. My one critique would be that they didn’t have English bacon or hash browns as part of the “Full English”.

I love the variety of food. Plenty of gluten free and vegetarian options and fantastic atmosphere

Candida Brown

A few years ago, my nail guy suggested this spot for a new place to check out for date night and it did not disappoint. We made this our actual go-to for low key but social vibes for more than date night. It became our spot for our 1st Valentines, celebration of a merch launch and just a chill spot for US time. The food is spot on, accommodating most of the time, options if gluten free, allergy friendly and just for preference! They have a very COOL. and Chill vibe that suits a lot of moods! I haven’t checked out their weekend sports bar atmosphere but I’ve yet to hear anything bad or any red flags that it doesn’t deliver! Our fave plates are the salmon, steak, fries (sweet potato & fancy regular) and their pasta!

CRV

This place is delicious! We ordered a mix of savory and sweet crêpes. All of them were amazing! Also service was incredibly fast. We ordered nine crêpes and received them very quickly. The staff was very friendly. They have a delicious gluten free crêpe, too!!!!

Mackenzie Warneke

We were seated at a table and waited 25 minutes before asking if we could get a waitress. There was an issue with the waitress who was supposed to take our order, but as soon as we said something a different waitress who had just walked in helped us and got our food to us immediately. She was extremely nice and apologetic for the wait time and miscommunication, but was quick to fix it. On top of this there are A LOT of TASTY gluten free options. We will happily come again!

I can not share this place enough. If you have ever gone, you know what I mean. They are friendly, they are fun the food is fabulous. They even accommodate my gluten-free dietary need.... They are a small midtown location with a line out the door...that is so worth the wait. The prices are decent as well. This place hands down the best place to go to anyway of the week.

First time here, Thursday, 7/27/23, @8:30pm. Had supreme pizza on a gluten-free crust and garlic fries. Excellent food and service.

Gina M

Great selection of menu items plus a beautiful display of sweet treats in the glass case by the registers. Walk up and order at the counter and then they will bring your order to your table. Beautiful white modern decor. Wine, beer and cocktails. Indoor and outdoor seating. The only thing that would have made it better is a selection of gluten free items.

This restaurant was just okay. My son and I went there for a special occasion. I made a reservation ahead of time and told them of the special occasion but no one ever acknowledged that while we were there. Most restaurants would have made some kind of fuss. The meal I wanted to order was no longer on the menu, though it showed on the website. The mail I ended up with was full of mostly squash and zucchini, things I'm not crazy about. Would have appreciated more different vegetables inside of it. My son got one of the specials, which were pretty spendy, and he didn't like it. He thought it was the pasta of the ravioli but I think it was most likely almond cheese or something because he said it was a little bit gritty. The appetizer was probably the best thing. We got a heirloom tomato thing that was just delicious. That was probably our favorite part. I WAS happy that there seemed to be organic soap in the restroom so I did not have to subject myself to chemicals. Kudos for that! For me, there are two problems with this restaurant. One is that the menu is very small so there are not many options. Most of them were things I would make at home and did not want to eat out. Second problem was no real gluten-free options. I think that a Restaurant that is vegan should perhaps have more consciousness around the subject of gluten. Oh! And I emailed the manager three times leading up to the day I was expecting to be there & never got an answer until afterwards! So they could definitely do better with communicating as well. All in all, we were not real impressed with the restaurant and probably will not go again.

Delish gluten-free "loaded" breakfast waffles. Fun neighborhood spot, quiet & by a park.

Patricia Berlant

This local spot is always filled with patrons. We were so fortunate to find parking, walk in a sit at the bar! Jessica was awesome and attentive and the food, great. Burgers on gluten free Brioche buns!

Corrinne Fryer

Arrived on November 11 To Celebrate My Birthday Got In Quickly. Our Server Was Attentive And Positive, And The Manager Was Friendly. The Food Absolutely Delicious My Favorite Flatbread Califlower Crust Margherita, And Farfalle With Chicken & Roasted Garlic. I Had The Gluten Free Godiva Chocolate Cheesecake. All I Can Say The Experience Was Great Will Definitely Return. Thank You Cheesecake Factory❤

Came at an odd time between lunch and dinner but they had a very small menu and they accommodated my friends who were gluten and dairy-free. I had the burger was delicious. My friend had the chicken sandwich. We had some salads. It was all very good and very peaceful to sit since it wasn't very busy!

Bianca Raluca

Always a wonderful dining experience. They have gluten free and dairy free options, including gluten free toast. The staff is always friendly. They are also dog friendly. Their outdoor seating area is beautiful and has a lovely atmosphere. Really great for brunch, lunch, and dinner.

Carol Dirksen

Treated myself to the pandan vegan & gluten-free waffle; it was beautiful and delicious

James Moore

I told the staff about my gluten free status. They checked in the menu items I selected and suggested another item instead... The carnitas. The place was busy. Service was friendly and quick. The food was fantastic. It was fresh, full of flavor and plentiful. Highly recommended.

Melissa Ratner

Tasty food. Friendly staff and fun atmosphere. Carnitas tacos were sooooo good. They accommodate gluten free diets. Prices reasonable.

Bryan B

Modest portions, but extremely tasty. Spacious. Gluten-free options.

Maria Baier

I had takeout and usually proceed with caution as I have celiac disease and a vinegar allergy. I was so happy to see the handwritten note letting me know the sauces had vinegar and felt completely confident that my dish was allergy free for me. Definitely will be ordering again and again. Thanks so much for providing a healthy and delicious, AFFORDABLE super clean meal! Might just have to drop in!

Isa Jaymes

Thought I had already wrote a review for this place, whoops! Been coming here quite a lot and definitely enjoying most of the menu. Everything tastes elevated, the brunch menu is where it’s at, and the staff are all welcoming and accommodating. Wish the menu was slightly bigger but that’s probably because I’m gluten free and a fair bit of it is pizza. But I love this spot none-the-less!

Jen Senlio

Great restaurant. Had the burger with bacon and brie. Brought half of it home for lunch! Fries were crispy! Atmosphere is friendly and staff was great and suggested gluten free items.

I love this place. Their pho is so delicious and so are their spring rolls! I'm a gluten free eater due to a non-celiac medical condition and I've been fine eating their chicken pho and beef pho as well as the shrimp spring rolls. Their broth as-is has been a safe food for me and i don't add hoisin or soy sauce, just the toppings and sriracha. I'm so thankful to have found a place with excellent, fast service, delicious Vietnamese food, and a lovely owner that answers all your questions. Grab a boba while you're here!

Nathan Hawkes

Everything you want to have and can appreciate about a taproom bar and grill, you’ll find that here. Super chill environment with over 30 different beers to choose from. They have a great salad, burger, and sandwich menu. Everything tastes amazing! The owner came out to chat with everyone and made the experience really fun. Want to talk sports? Interested in chilling on a warm Sac afternoon with a chilled beer? Look no further. On this particular visit I chose the Thai Chicken sandwich. I was not disappointed. The fries were perfectly cooked and crisp. This is a dish I would east again. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. Lastly, there are gluten free options. Give this place a try! You’ll like it!

Jenna W

The Porch has some really great gluten free options! The shrimp and grits are my favorite Yummy cocktails as well!

Kage Gill

Fresh . healthy. brilliant food. gluten & vegan friendly cafateria type dinning. Loved it

My family and I love the ambience of this place so we have given it a thorough trial. We have visited a total of 3 times. The first time was for my birthday dinner in which the power unexpectedly went out and they had us pay and excused us from the restaurant. It sucked, but they told us to return. We returned for my Mom’s birthday in 2023 and my father got a dry chicken dish. We finally did brunch this past Saturday with a friend and my husband. Flavors were awesome but technique was lacking. The eggs on both dishes (Benedict and avocado toast) were under poached - runny and translucent whites kind of under poached. When my Mom asked for it to be recooked, the server asked my Mom if she was looking for a medium poach. Unfortunately my Mom was just looking for the eggs to be standard poached. They went ahead and removed it from the bill which was considerate. The almond cake sounded so yummy and flavor was excellent, but almond cake is notorious for being a moist gluten free treat. This one was oddly dry and mealy. The lemon ricotta pancakes, although not notorious for being overly sweet, weren’t sweet at all. I’m sorry to say we likely won’t be back. Beautiful place and lovely staff if that’s what you’re looking for! Perhaps we have just had bad luck with them.

Kent Krauza

Tasty sandwiches at reasonable prices. One of the least expensive places in Old Sacramento to eat. Lots of vegetarian options, as well as other dietary restrictions such as gluten free and lactose free. The pumpkin spice latte is made with their own house-made pumpkin sauce/syrup and it’s amazing.

Matt Pauler

Great service. Come here every other week. Meets and exceeds my expectations every time. Great to have a place to get some gluten friendly options that actually taste decent.

Tyler Thompson

The food was amazing. Most of their dishes are naturally gluten free, however they don’t have gluten feee options for their sides (such as chips or crackers). This left me eating hummus and ceviche by the spoon. The drinks are great. Well crafted cocktails.

Lulu Sparks

Great food, awesome service . Gluten free bread was available. I enjoyed my French toast.

Tyler Thompson

The shrimp risotto and chicken were amazing. As a person with a gluten allergy, I am pleased that they had multiple options for gluten allergies - noted on the menu- their options were absolutely delicious.

Christina Knudson

Do not eat here if you have celiac disease or can’t tolerate gluten. Many items are marked GF but they contain gluten. Items are not gluten-free and are not celiac-safe if they are made in a fryer that is shared with gluten-containing items. At least two games were broken but weren’t marked as broken, so they took money even though you could not play.

Dominique Monroe

This was my second time here and the food is amazing as well as the service! I got the salmon bowl the second time with a blackberry margarita and it was amazing!!! They do offer gluten free options as well

Rachel Smith

This place was awesome. They made my mom a delicious vegan and gluten free pasta dish, say better than the one you can get at Spaghetti Factory. The chef came out and talked to us and made sure everything was tasty. He also told us if we call a day ahead of time he can do a vegan pizza, my kid would be thrilled. I had a regular pizza Margareta and it was amazing. Their fresh dough is great. I also had the spinach salad. Great basic salad. Fresh Strawberries. Other dishes at the table people gave 5 stars. Mushroom tortellini, chicken saltimboca, garlic bread. All the main dishes come with bread and minestrone soup, and the soup was perfect. We'll be back for sure We went early on a Wednesday for dinner. It was quiet and they were fine with my kids. There is a kids menu.

Jane Lillard

Super fresh food and super fast! The friendly lady (Tina) whose family owns the restaurant was very accomodating when I asked about gluten free options. I asked about noodles and she offered to make a dish with udon noodles, meat and veggies special for us! It was so delicious! We also had sizzling rice soup with very fresh veggies and the broth was so tasty even on it's own! We also talked about if the egg rolls were gluten free and she said they are but that the oil in the fryer would not be becuase other items made with gluten batter were fried in it. This is great knowledge to share for gluten sensitive people. I really appreciated it. Our food came to us piping hot in like 5 minutes! I will be recommending this place to everyone and plan to have it in frequent rotation for dinners. Try it!
