Top 15 Gluten-Free Brunch Spots to Delight in Navy Yard, Washington

Gina Fiore

The food and drinks are delicious and the service is always great even when busy. They took amazing care of a family member with a severe gluten allergy, carefully reviewing the menu with them and steering them away from the foods they could not eat. We love coming here, and are so glad they’re part of the neighborhood.

I dropped by with my partner after a soccer game at Audi Stadium. She's gluten-free, and I'm gluten-full. Neither one of us had ever tried a Detroit-style pizza. Let me tell you, it was amazing. She said the gluten-free pizza was the most amazing she's ever had. I tried it as well and I agree. I have no idea what kind of magic they summoned to conjure up a fluffy crispy crust. It was a delicious pizza you could drop the "gluten-free" adjective from and no one would blink an eye. The gluten-full pizza was also amazing. Definitely one of the better pizzas I've had in town. Detroit-style pizza reminds me a little of Roman-style pizza. The crust is thicker and airy, like a focaccia. The bottom is crispy. There's a bit more sauce than other styles. Last but not least, we do have to mention our waiter Hafez, who was very friendly and accommodating. He answered all our questions about the gluten-free crust ingredients with a fantastic attitude and made our days and experience at Emmy Squared that much brighter.

This a good place for a bite in the morning or a relaxing dinner in the evening. The menu is okay but could use some better dining options. For breakfast, stick with the basics, trying to over create a simple meal takes away from the meal. The pancakes do need some work though, not sure it they are trying to use gluten free flour but the pancakes just aren’t right. The dinner menu is good but could use some more variety. I do recommend a stop in and enjoy a good meal (just stay away from the pancakes)

Amazing smoothies and bowls and open faced toasts. I’m vegan and gluten free and this is one of the only places I can eat with multiple choices!! Love the super fruit smoothie and avocado smash toast on GF bread and Mediterranean toast with no cheese on GF bread. The staff is very friendly, they know my name, they have my smoothie ready for me when I walk in the door without me having to tell them what I need. Super great neighborhood vibe as well!

Delicious! Customized the chicken dish with lemon wedges and capers. Gluten-free and dairy-free. Everyone else's portions were small, but tasty.

Deija Rivera

A lot of gluten and vegetarian options which is such a plus here. Friendly and efficient service. Thank you Natalie for making sure everything was to our liking and responding quickly to any requests. We’ll definitely be back!

This is a puertorican restaurant, but there's no indication on any of the decor/ambiance that this is Caribbean, Latin flair food. The restaurant looks like it's decorated from Ikea. The service is not whatsoever what a Latin community is about it doesn't reflect Puerto Rico. We are friendly, charming, charismatic, happy, and hospitality people. We strive to make everyone welcome (for the vast majority) This is not the vibe you get when you arrive here. Once you walk in, you find a seat, scan the QR code on the table, and then you order your food straight from the app. You have to stand up and grab your own plate, napkins, and silverware. The waitress brings your food to the table. The waitress doesn't do anything else just to bring your food. Doesn't come back asking if you need anything else. The owner is oriental and 5 times he walked around to the other guest asking how everything was, but not once he approached my table to ask me how my food was. I ordered cheese balls, tripleta, a colao, and a Guanabana smoothy. All these were $59.00. The food was really good. The tripleta was moist, warm, and flavourful. I will just add a bit more of the mayo ketchup or some aoili sauce. The parking is right behind the building. For 2 hours, I paid $9.00 There is no vegetarian, gluten-free option.

The food was fantastic and the service even better! They were able to accommodate my gluten and egg allergies and everyone was able to find something that appealed to them. Its a great menu with something for everyone. Great view of Nationals Park from the second floor. The atmosphere is a really cool art deco, Gatsby-esque style. However, it is a little dark if you're over 40, lol. Be prepared to use your phone in the bathroom to check for messes - it's a black toilet on a black floor with very little light 🤣.
