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

I was there for a meeting. 1st time visit. The Food was good. I was offered Gluten Free options, which I had requested. The Server was friendly, and timely.

Stacey Dishman

I took my daughter who had a gluten allergy. There were Gluten Free options and so many to choose from. We had the best service. The server was Wil and he had the best hospitality. The manager Ethan came and asked us how everything was. Ethan had great hospitality as well. We had the flaming turtle chocolate that gets lit on fire. It was a wonderful experience and we will definitely be coming back. 10/10 would definitely recommend.

My home-base Cafe Patachou. Much too conveniently located near my home. It's hard to eat out and eat healthy. I love to get the chicken salad sandwich on gluten free toast and sub out chips for arugula. So yummy and I swear it has restorative powers.

Sam Zarakovich

No words, absolutely fantastic. World class, this should have a michilin star. Food? Fantsstic. Ciders? Amazing. And its a nut free, allergen and gluten concious kitchen? What more could you ask for.

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!

Made a reservation for 8 for Prom last week and the kids were pleased. They said the food was great and the manager came out to check on the gluten free order to make sure it was right and that they were having a good experience. They were excited to be treated with such great service after not being served well at a steakhouse farther north a couple of months ago. They promised they tipped appropriately, but look it up on my open table to make sure that is true. Thank you for treating them with kindness and respect and for making it a good experience for them.

Super nice staff 100% gluten free!!!

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!! 💙

Educator Barnes

I’m gluten-free. Even though I’ve had the gluten-free pasta at this restaurant before, I was not in the mood for pasta. I understand that this restaurant has a lot of pasta options, but there are other options as well. For my meal, I asked for asparagus and lobster on top of mashed potatoes. When my meal came out, the lobster and asparagus was on top of pasta. I explicitly. stated that I did not want pasta. Despite this, I was asked if I wanted to keep the meal or wait for it to be remade. I chose to have it remade while I watched my husband eat his dish. Once the dish was corrected, I did enjoy it. However, I do wish this restaurant had more gluten-free options.

Juana Saldana

Service was quick and friendly. They have plenty of gluten-free options. My husband’s gluten-free meal was delicious! My French toast wasn’t my favorite, but everything else was solid. Overall, a great place for breakfast with something for everyone.

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.

Nick Sampson

Food was great, staff was great. Our server was amazing and very knowledgeable of celiac and gluten needs.

Cyndi Brenner

Loved this little sandwich shop. The gluten-free bagel was so good, it made me so happy to find a great place for a quick bite with gluten-free options! Next time I’m passing through again, I will definitely be stopping by!

Joe Sacher

Burgers are really good. I was super disappointed in the onion rings. Really thick breading, like a limp pretzel dough and no crisp. Wish I didn't pay extra and just got the fries. Wife is Celiac and proper handling of this is main reason we came.

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.

Alicia Mendoza

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

Nicholas Froggatt

We really enjoyed the jerk chicken wrap and the BBQ chicken salad, and left with some delicious desserts! Tons of gluten-free options, and it was great meeting the owner and her family.

Shalyse Ise

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

V. L. Gall

Yes they have gluten free options

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!

Rick’s Cafe Boatyard has been on our list of date-night restaurants to check out for a long time. We finally made it and we’re happy we did. Even with some construction work happening, the atmosphere was nice. They had several gluten-free options for us to choose from. We chose bacon wrapped scallops and shrimp tacos (see the photos), and it was all delicious. Our server was great… very attentive, friendly and helpful.

Ketsiah Malakai (LilKetsi)

Gluten-Free!!! The amazingly fluffy flat pancake breading of most of their meal options is absolutely amazing....The Reina Pepeada (what I got) comes normally with shredded chicken, avacado, cilantro, and mayo. I got mine without cilantro and chose a combo deal that came with Lays potato chips and a soda (I got Sprite). The arepa had like a pound of chicken on it and very likely a whole avacado! So so good....They offered plastic silverware, but I ended up eating with my hands. How you know it was delicious. XD The Reina Pepeada itself is $12 (menu price); the meal deal was $14 (menu price). My whole price was $19 and change ($3 tip included). The Reina Pepeada is one of the cheaper options, but you can easily get out for under $20.

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)

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!)

Hailey

Reasonably priced food for ths atmosphere and food presentation/freshness. It was really good. The bacon was so yummy. They also have gluten free bread!

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!

Krystal Combs

The food is amazing, and as someone who is medically gluten-free, their gluten free options taste amazing. The vibe and music is delightful and if you love plants Gold Leaf is definitely your vibe.

Kimberly Wiselogle

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

Melissa Duff

I love coming here. The food is great- I can’t help but get the baked oatmeal every time. The baristas are so peppy and kind. The coffee is solid and the seasonal drinks are always changing so you can try something new. Quite a few gluten free baked-goods options.

Spencer King

Appreciated that this place had parking even though it was a little difficult to navigate. The space itself was beautiful on the inside and we easily grabbed a seat for 4 on a Friday night. Wait staff was incredibly attentive. Plenty of options whether we were looking for seafood, meat, vegetarian, gluten free. No matter what you order, you have you get the churros for dessert- they are unlike any you’ve ever had.

Tyler Ann Hopkins

First Watch is so so good! The atmosphere is fun and inviting and kid friendly. I love the Mint Mocha and Traditional Breakfast! It's perfect for dietary restrictions to as they have gluten free options and cater more to the healthy side. We drive an hour one way to eat at First Watch and it's so worth it!

Sherry Wilson

Has great gluten free options. Family loves biscuit and gravy and fried potatoes!

Elizabeth Brown

Great tasting food and excellent service. We stopped here for dinner & drinks when they opened before a show at Old National and the service was super fast, made it to our show no problem! They have a gluten free menu and no one got glutened, so safe for the celiacs out there (we informed them of the allergy & to please switch gloves).

Gordon Lewis

Stopped off the interstate. Looking for the drink to unwind and stumbled upon this bar. Pizzas look great. We tried the gluten-free crust. Surprisingly very good gluten free , cauliflower, crust... Also recommend the sausage (crumbled) topping on a pizza.. If you like a hundred cheese with your pizza, basil has the seasoning in your sauce, and high quality ingredients, you'll love the pizza too.

Ava Peterson

Love Venezuelan food & this was delicious! A must try, especially if you’re gluten free! I’ll be back :)

Evan VanCuren

We had a fantastic experience at the Fountain Room! Our server, Katherine, was attentive, personable, and knowledgeable. She paid special attention to my wife’s gluten allergy which we really appreciated. We can’t wait to come back and bring our friends!

Connie Drake

Denise PH

It is a great restaurant with tasty options, gluten-free and dairy-free. The ingredients feel super fresh, the portions are just perfect, and the presentation of the dishes is beautiful. Plus, the service is quick and kind. I have absolutely no complaint about this wonderful restaurant - only that I have wished to tried it earlier and more times during my stay.

Erin & Shawn Thomas

Gorgeous brewery, friendly staff and excelle t me u with gluten free options.

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!

Darci James

Placed a $400 catering order for an executive staff meeting. The delivery was on time, packaged well, and the catering manager was so lovely. We got a taco bar, a few sides, chips and dips, and desserts. All fantastic. The portion sizes were wonderful and the quality of food was great. I had senior staff coming to find me to ask where it was from and say it was delicious. Worked out great to ensure my vegetarian and gluten free staff members could easily eat.

Laure Anne

Lots of options on the menu. The gluten free bread was good. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

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!

Pauline Cox

My sister and I visited for the first time and loved it! Our server was attentive and very sweet, and the food we amazing! She ordered an amazing breakfast skillet that was cooked perfectly and had amazing flavour. I have several dietary restrictions but was able to find a delicious gluten free and dairy free breakfast sandwich that i absolutely loved! We both left very happy and plan to return with our husbands!!

Excellent food and service. Menu items are well labeled concerning gluten free and vegan offerings.
