Top 50 Gluten-Free Brunch Spots to Enjoy in Houston

Jenna

Bellagreen is an absolute gem, especially if you have dietary restrictions. As someone with celiac, EoE, and MCAS, eating out can feel like a gamble—but Bellagreen makes it so much easier. Their gluten-free menu is extensive, clearly labeled, and the staff is always patient and knowledgeable about allergens. The food is fresh, flavorful, and never feels like a compromise. I’m a big fan of their gluten-free pastas and bowls—the ingredients taste high quality, the portions are generous, and I leave feeling good every time. It’s rare to find a place that balances flavor, health-conscious options, and safety this well. Whether you’re managing food sensitivities or just want a nourishing meal in a beautiful setting, Bellagreen always delivers.

I ordered through Uber Eats. The food quality was FANTASTIC. Love the gluten-free options. I even appreciate the containers the food came in. I'll order more often. Thank you for QUALITY.

Michealla

Gluten and dairy free pretty much everything. I got a ton of cookies and some coconut macaroons. They were delicious. I would have tried a chocolate taco ice cream if I were at home and had access to a freezer!

Natalie Airey

Soo good! We buy our bread here instead of in the stores now

Bellagreen is one of my go-to spots as a celiac girlie! Their commitment to fresh, high-quality ingredients and clearly labeled gluten-free options makes dining out so much easier. But let’s talk about the real star—the sweet potato fries! Perfectly crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and absolutely delicious. It’s rare to find safe gluten-free fries, and these are next level! The staff is also super accommodating and knowledgeable about dietary restrictions, making the whole experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone looking for safe and delicious gluten-free eats!

Incredible Gluten-Free fried chicken, and great wines

Juliana Camargo

Our server Riley was such a delight! He took care of us and made sure we had warm teas on this extremely cold night! Our family had appetizers, main dishes and dessert all Gluten Free. Highly recommend coming here - we will certainly be back! Try the brussel sprouts, spicy panang curry, lasagna and flourless chocolate cake!

Peggy Braddock

They have gluten free options which taste great. Having those options makes this my favorite place!

Jenna

As someone with celiac disease, finding safe and delicious gluten-free options can be a challenge, but Pondicheri absolutely delivers! Their menu has so many naturally gluten-free dishes, and the staff is knowledgeable and accommodating when it comes to dietary restrictions. It’s such a relief to enjoy incredible Indian-inspired food without worrying about cross-contamination. Everything I’ve tried has been packed with flavor, fresh, and so thoughtfully prepared. The atmosphere is also warm and inviting, making it a great spot for anything from a casual lunch to a special night out. If you’re gluten-free (or just love amazing food), this place is a must-visit!

Great all around. I have celiac and when I told them, they made sure to cook everything very safely without cross contamination. Thank you! Will be back!

Jim Connelly

ISO real GF food for my celiac/ Chrons/EPI spouse. Made a reservation sight unseen because I saw GF crab cakes on the menu. Find out most of the menu (including dessert) is GF! The crab cakes were excellent! The GF cheese cake had a crust! And was awesome! I am not in need of GF food. I ate all of this as well. Would absolutely recommend to all. The prices are a bit high, but I would pay that every time to get my spouse high quality real food like this. Will definitely come here every time I am in Houston.

Karen S.

Loved the gluten free options!

Monica Leitzel

This was a pretty neat place. My husband and I both enjoyed our food. They were able to accommodate my food sensitivities. The bee sting pancakes which are seasonal were really good. Was able to get them in gluten free. Their chicken sausage was good as well. My husband tried the pineapple upside down pancakes (not gluten free) and loved them. Looking forward to dining in again and trying other options

Erica Guerra

Nice breakfast spot with tasty options for those with gluten sensitivity or celiac. I ordered the pancake flight: gluten free, And it was some of the fluffiest and most amazing pancakes ever! Highly recommend the cinnamon roll and the strawberry cream one, it was an amazing experience over all.

Sandeep Bang

Lots of gluten-free vegan options. Kids pizza was ok. Everything else was great!

Stacy Falbaum

It’s so delicious. Like a reinterpretation of a classic noodle bowl. So fresh and no concerns about a negative health impact!

Jun

really good sunday brunch buffet. a ton of gluten free options, including their super tasty cornbread!!

Alan Kelley

By far the best gluten free baked goods I’ve ever had. My kids can’t even tell, and now my mom doesn’t have to eat something different at our gatherings.

Ana

My boyfriend and I chose this restaurant, despite its distance from our gate, precisely because of the reviews. Our gate is at Gate C, and we walked to Gate E, where Pappadeaux is located. Airport restaurants usually have the worst ratings, but this place has 4.5 stars, and after visiting it, I understand why. First, their service is some of the best I've ever received. They took the time to cook our dish two different ways, since my boyfriend is allergic to gluten. They were always attentive to us, even though the place was packed. The food was quite delicious, highly recommended!

Nichole

Gluten free cinnamon bun crepe was delicious!

Noelle Maxwell

Absolutely love them! Service and food is amazing. I am dairy and gluten free and love that I can super yummy crepes with dairy and gluten free options! Wish more places offered that!

John Hoeglund

Great food with allergen friendly, gluten free, and vegan options. Something tasty for everyone.

Dave

Dog friendly patio, gluten free pancakes, Oat milk.

Guilherme Pirani

Very good food, place and people. My wife has a severe allergy to gluten and took really good care. Kudos to Katy who helped us :) *I hope I have the correct name for her. Sorry if I'm wrong LoL

Tonight we had our church volunteer appreciation dinner at Carrabba’s. What an awesome night! The restaurant looks stunning, even more so than usual with all the holiday decorations. I have been coming here for many years, and it is always beautiful and an amazing experience. Tonight Ishmael and Darwin and the support staff were wonderful. I never had to ask for my glass to be refilled, or my plate to be taken. No small task with 25 people in the room for dinner. Being a former server it always is a breath of fresh air to receive excellent service, especially in this day and age of lackluster experiences at most restaurants after 2020. Every modification I asked for was kindly given to me, which I really appreciated because of being gluten free but still wanting the chicken Marsala. They had a smile on their face after any request that was made by anyone at the table, and I felt like family as I sat there. It was absolutely delicious! The chicken Marsala here is probably the best I’ve ever had. I ate the chicken Marsala at one of the franchises of Carraba’s at the airport in Atlanta in October and it was not even close. It didn’t even compare to how delicious the food is here st the Original. The servers even knew exactly when to close the doors so that we could have some quiet while we ate, visited, played a game, and went around the room to talk about the past year and our grateful hearts for our church family and our pastors. Although I do my best to give compliments instead of complaints, I don’t always succeed in remembering to do it. However, I had to post a review now while I was thinking about it so you would know how happy the whole group was with the meal and the service. Thanks for always being consistently great, guys!

We just finished celebrating our 10-year wedding anniversary at The Melting Pot and couldn’t wait to leave this review! From start to finish, the experience was amazing. Our server, Andrey, was so friendly, attentive, and full of great suggestions. Once he found out I have Celiac, he made sure everything was safe and gluten-free — and did it with such ease. Honestly, the BEST gluten-free bread I’ve ever had at a restaurant! Every course was perfection. The kitchen manager, Michelle, even came by to check in and make sure everything was just right, which meant a lot. The drinks were fantastic too — highly recommend the Espresso Martini and Tawny Port! To top it all off, they surprised us with a “Happy Anniversary” card signed by the whole staff. Such a thoughtful and special touch. Thank you, Melting Pot team, for making our celebration unforgettable!

Geralyn Brackin

Excellent- Gluten Free Options were outstanding. The GF Bread was the best I have had. I am Celiac and would Definetely Recommend.

Stephanie Bailey

This is my favorite crepe place. I love that they have a gluten free options! I’m obsessed with their Nordic crepe. I love the savory ones! I also love their lavender green tea latte!

Ryan Kloosterman

Fantastic help from the staff both times I visited with gluten free options. Super tasty fajitas and nachos 🔥

Jenna

Black Walnut Café is such a great spot for a casual meal with tons of options! As a celiac girlie, I appreciate that they offer clearly marked gluten-free choices and that the staff is knowledgeable about dietary restrictions. I felt safe eating here, and the food was delicious! Whether you’re grabbing brunch, lunch, or dinner, it’s a solid choice for anyone needing gluten-free options in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.

Ruth Brown

Great gluten free options and it is delicious. The prices are a little high and the sides and drinks are on the small side. I paid almost $3 for a bottle of Diet Coke to find out it was a mini one.

Rebekah Terry

This restaurant deserves a Michelin Star ⭐️ It does NOT disappoint. From the ambience, to the service, to the food…everything was absolutely perfect 😍 vegan/gluten free options and dessert! Excellent mocktail..favorite restaurant at this point. Must try!!

yajaira escobedo

Food is good but pretty loud inside to have a conversation however we went on a Sunday morning and it was very busy. I like the gluten free options for the pancakes.

Lara Sowell

We are in this restaurant this afternoon for lunch. I eat gluten free at my doctor’s direction. I ordered brisket and eggs. The brisket was served over grits and my husband ordered the gluten free pancakes for us to try. Everything was so delicious! Although next time I would cut the coconut from the pancakes. I also got a Hibiscus Rose Kombucha and a cappuccino.

Angelika Romero

Best gluten free pizza in Houston! Highly recommend the margarita pizza with the gluten free crust and bomba style.

Bethany Talarico

Portions have gotten smaller and prices have increased over the years, but it’s still a decent option for a gluten free brunch.

Kevin Blasco

Gluten-free Italian sausage pizza is by far the best in Houston.

Ron Ronald

Great Mexican restaurant. I had the gluten-free enchiladas and a great reserve margareta. Fantastic location.

Ronald Obmaces

This is definitely the BEST Filipino restaurant in Houston, probably Texas too. Their food is super tasty and doesn't look like a pile of slop like typical Filipino food does. They are also super accommodating to food allergies which I have yet to encounter another Filipino restaurant that does, especially gluten. Highly recommend the fried rice, lechon, cola adobo, wings, bistek, bbq skewers, any of their cocktails, and of course their Halo Halo!

William Rogers III (Will)

This location only has to-go orders or sit outside options only! Many tables outside under a covering. The food was good and menu has several gluten or dairy free options.

Kat Spofford

Great chicken salad. Two kinds, and awesome bread. Everything spelled out for you on the health front, lots of gluten free, good salmon. The store inside has frozen food (meat) you can buy like at a grocery store. Good coffee. Everything soooo fresh! Good chips with sandwiches. I came back a couple of weeks later for Cappuccino and breakfast. I lived the blueberry pancakes, potato that came with the omlette. I would definitely put this place on my breakfast list. Yum!

Kent Scribner

Happy hour. We arrived in time for happy hour. The house margarita was great. The happy hour food menu was valued priced. We started with the happy hour guacamole. Excellent flavor. The salsa is excellent. I tried the beef taco, fish taco and smoked chicken skewers. Everything was very good.excellent place for gluten free.

Jennifer Free

Gluten free waffles and crepes! Delicious.

Esperonsa McGee

I enjoyed the crepes I tasted and my gluten-free waffle. I was glad they had an option for me. Coffee was great, and the service was friendly and helpful. The cook even allowed my friend to instruct him to make her crepe must the way she likes it. Excellent!

Mary Morrison

Our department lunch was amazing. Pleasing a diverse group of 25 people is hard but their three courses pre-fix menu worked well with vegetarian and gluten free choices. The service was impeccable. They have wonderful holiday decorations to add to the atmosphere. Very very pleased.

Jenny Hanlon Patterson

First visit but will return. Chicken satay was delicious and loved the cucumber relish and the peanut sauces. Server was very nice & took excellent care of us. She even brought my husband extra spicy dips for his food! Server was also helpful with one of our group who must eat gluten free.

Stephanie Willis

First time dining at Black Walnut Cafe. It was busy (as it was Easter), but there were plenty of seats. This is a “seat yourself” establishment, which is not really clear until until you walk into the restaurant. Once my party walked in, there was plenty of choice seating. The servers were professional and friendly and the food was good. The portion sizes were just right, but the gluten free pancakes were a little dry (even with syrup). The kids gluten free cheese burger and fries were good as was the Mac and cheese and grilled chicken. The experience was pleasant and we will definitely visit again.

Elyse Kizer

Everything is delicious and the service is great. I'm gluten free and it's very easy to find something here.

Julie Kavanagh

This is the best Dimassi's! We will definitely be back. Tons of flavor, tons of options, lot's of gluten free including dessert! Even my picky kid loved it!

Model Muse

I was extremely disappointed with the experience here. Which is unfortunate because my first visit a few months ago was extremely positive. From the extreme unprofessionalism of the servers, to the uneducated staff in the kitchen. I was served a gluten filled meal, even though I specifically requested a lettuce wrap and a gluten allergy.. when the food was put in front of me, I told the server it was not correct, and he said “you need to take that to the manager to fix it” instead of offering to take care of it. Overall extremely disappointed and will not be coming back.
