Awanda Johnson

This was my first time visiting the restaurant. I was in town for a wedding and googled. Having celiac and egg allergy it not always easy to find a good place with good options, but I was amazed by the food here. I went back a couple time's before leaving. This is going to be my to go spot always when in SA. Staff were great, atmosphere is very cute and friendly and did I mention the food ....it was AMAZING, so delicious, great variety , it made me like a normal person enjoying food actual regular food and not having to worry about getting sick!!! A definite win!!!

We came here to celebrate our son's 23rd birthday as well as his upcoming graduation from The Culinary Institute of America, and it was well worth every cent! We did the tasting menu and shared everything family style. The food is dairy and gluten free as well as plant-forward. That said, the braised shirt ribs did not disappoint. We left full and happy. If you're dining with someone who doesn't like vegetables, bring them here to change their mind.

What a treat to have vegetarian and gluten free! The food was delicious! And the agua fresca was sweet and refreshing. There were so many yummy sounding choices it was hard to pick, I’ll have to come back.

Jill Craft

Very knowledgeable on the gluten-friendly options. This is the only place I know of in San Antonio that has gluten-friendly chicken fried steak, chicken fried chicken, onion strings, fried mushrooms, and cream gravy. Yes, you heard me right, gluten-friendly gravy. I danced with rapture at the 1st bite of a fried button mushroom gluten-friendly free that i have eaten in over 8 years. Every part of the meal was enjoyed, including the crustless gluten-friendly cheese cake. I dream about their fried mushrooms, so i limit my visites to once a month or every other month. Definitely on my list for a great meal.

Dawn Revell

We absolutely love this restaurant and eat there at least once a month. One of the big draws from me ore. Originally, choosing this restaurant was the delicious gluten-free menu. Any authentic food.

Linsey Del Valle-King

Great food. friendly server. accommodating for gluten allergy. JP was great, only concern was the pigeons in the indoor dinning area

Alma Silva

Service is always top notch! The food was excellent, the creme brulee and drinks were awesome! I love the fact that they have so many gluten free options. Definitely will be back!

Juliana Marin

Visit miss chickpeas, it looks good, it's the first time I've been there. the place is cozy. Friendly and helpful staff. A lot of variety in the dishes, I recommend it: several gluten-free options. It is a beautiful place, I like the play of its colors. It is a little difficult to find a restaurant where the portions are large and the quality-price ratio is very good, the cook is super friendly as well as the cashiers. I am from Spain and I have been eating this type of food for 12 years. An award for the person who prepares that type of food at miss chickpea I loved it!!

Michelle Wendt

Loved the gluten-free chicken.

Janet T.I.

Very pleasant experience. The waitress told me “we take allergies very seriously here. We don’t have a seperate GF menu because the majority can be made GF”.

David Osteen

This place is absolutely amazing and a must go to! If you are visiting SeaWorld in San Antonio then you need to make it a point to stop here and eat. You can thank me later. If you live on the Northwest side of San Antonio, then this needs to be on your regular list of places to eat. If you are visiting San Antonio then you need to make this one of your destination eateries. If you are a foodie, then this will be THE crown jewel of your amazing places to eat in San Antonio. This food is healthy, fresh, and absolutely delicious. They have vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free menu items that are all spectacular. Breakfast and lunch is served all day and the food is full of flavor and the portions are filling. There are a wide variety of beverage options that are both healthy and tasty. The owner and staff here are very welcoming and friendly and helpful. The gluten-free food here is so good that I drove 45 minutes each way just to pick it up for my wife. It was worth every minute and every mile. There are lots of food options around this part of town, and I have been to many of them, but this is by far the best. My only regret is having not found this treasure of a restaurant sooner. Anyone who gives this place less than five stars simply cannot be trusted. It's so good it deserves 10 stars, and once you try it for yourself I know you will agree. Went into support small businesses like this. Their service and product is far superior to any chain restaurant that you might consider. And as far as small local eateries go, this is one of the best. As you can tell, I can't recommend it enough. Go pay them a visit and find out why for yourself!

We waited 45min for party of 4 to actually be sat inside for walk-in even though requested outside seating. Had to ask for server to order food cause we may have been forgotten. Food was good although gluten tortillas debatable. Recommend if you can sit outside

I came in from out of town on a business trip and naturally, had to check out riverwalk & grab a bite to eat on the water ! Here's the catch- I have severeeeeee celiac disease. Like, cross contamination sensitive. It makes finding safe eateries while traveling a...challenge to say the least. That being said, I found Paesano's via a Google search and saw immediately they had a huge gluten free menu...I called and spoke to the staff before I decided to catch an Uber there..and they made me feel so safe. Understood the allergen protocol. I get to the restaurant and I'm seated immediately- during peak dinner hours. I get a cozy little spot right on the riverwalk, perfect for people watching as I dine solo. My server, Rudy** was such a pleasure - kind , attentive and understood the assignment right away when i explained my allergen needs. He assured me multiple times before food was dropped that he spoke to Chef Raul** and told me their cross contamination precautions. Wow did I feel safe. It means so much to us allergy folks when places just GET IT. And they GET IT . Lovely vibes, personable and friendly service even during peak dinner ! For a solo dining guest ! I am happy to report I have a safe spot to visit next time I'm here in SAT.

My fiancé and I were visiting San Antonio in April for the eclipse and had dinner at Fogo de Chao for the first time. Staff were wonderful and welcoming from the moment we walked in. The servers treated all of the tables as their own. A special thank you to the manager who was kind enough to bring me the allergen list and go through item by item with me as I have celiac disease. Avoiding gluten while eating out can be daunting but she made me feel confident and safe. The food was delicious, the salad bar had multiple options and there was never a shortage of meat coming to the table. We felt very special at the end when we were surprised with a crème brûlée. We would 10/10 recommend and hope to go back someday.

Brian Dixon

Great gluten free options and awesome food 🍔

Stefanie Vazquez

Amazing food! They have gluten free and vegan options

Jesse Wall

Nicolas M was absolutely amazing! He recommended the octopus, bistro steak and more. He made sure that all our questions were answered. If we had any questions at anytime just to flag him down. He never left our table without us being confident in what we were asking/ordering. I am gluten free so finding a place that accommodates and understands can be difficult at times but this place understands. They are also veteran owned! He even brought my leftovers out after being left behind! He went above and beyond! You definitely won’t be disappointed coming here!

We went to BellaGreen today for my birthday and really enjoyed everything. Don’t let the buildings facelift deter you, parking in the garage is validated as well. They also cater, including gluten free options. We had: the OG pizza, a huge salad honey fried goat cheese and arugula, honey garlic cauliflower wings Gluten free, and kids pasta with Alfredo. For dessert the gluten free carrot cake and the apple crumble. Impressed with the gluten free options, overall restaurant cleanliness and great service. we will definitely be back.

Luis Gonzalez

Outstanding food as always. Drinks are priced well. Gluten free options are available. Always a perfect vibe for lunch or dinner. Be back soon!

Rich G

Wow, what incredible service. Chef Sean is the best! Stopped in today for a to-go order but we had some dietary requests. Chef Sean not only came to our table to assist with our special requests but he also shared a personal recipe for a gluten free bread! Talk about going the extra mile! Give him a raise! Rich G., Spring TX

Kendra Harris

Worth the wait! I did the “build your own pasta” with the gluten free pasta & parmesan cheese sauce, which was delicious - being able to mix & match their pasta options to all be GF was great. Husband got the chicken parm & absolutely loved it too. Portion sizes were very generous! We chose 4/5 as for an Italian restaurant, we were hoping for a bread appetizer that most restaurants offer, but we didn’t have that. And we do agree with the other reviewers that it is a little slow, but it’s absolutely worth the wait. Staff were all very kind & personable!

Dlolovesherboys

Good food. Very accommodating to gluten and dairy allergies! Really fun time!

R Sebeck

Multiple gluten free and vegan options on the menu, very good price, good atmosphere! Very much enjoyed my bbq chicken salad even though I was eyeing up the gluten free sandwiches! They have a tangible gluten free menu rather than leaving you to decipher the main menu and our server was very knowledgeable. I am very sensitive to cross contact with gluten and I did not have a reaction. All of my gluten eating friends at the table also thoroughly enjoyed their meals :)

Mary Marcum

My meal was so fresh and so delicious. I’m not vegan or gluten free but came here with relatives that are. I’m blown away by the flavors and options here. Also, the service was fantastic and went above and beyond. I deeply appreciated the kindness shown. Thank you for great food and a great experience!

Rosalinda Garza

I asked the waiter if they had a gluten free menu. He was kind to get me a menu. After I gave my order, I had a gentleman come to talk to me about my order. He wanted to make sure my order was properly taken care of. He was going to make sure the cooks changed their gloves. The service I received was above and beyond.

Linda Mendoza

Late Monday night dinner, no wait, accommodating staff and excellent service. A really good gluten free pizza, I think it’s rice flour dough so it had a great chew to it. Wings and burger great as well.

Renee Rinn

As someone with celiac disease and a wheat allergy, I love this restaurant! The burgers are amazing! My boyfriend who is a huge meat eater even loves coming to this restaurant. I cannot recommend this restaurant or the other restaurants they open (Vegan Avenue on Main and Planetology) enough!

Paul Hostetler

This is an excellent restaurant. My wife cannot have gluten, and they serve great gluten-free options. My favorite is the chicken quesadilla with corn tortillas or the 1lb grilled chicken platter for 2. Delicious, and I am looking forward to going again.

Alma Silva

I have tried to order from the Snooze online and app, however, it no longer lets me substitute to a gluten friendly bread on the eggs benedict. It used to in the past. So then I tried to call in my order yesterday, but when I selected to transfer to speak to someone, the line kept hanging up and would not transfer. Snooze, please fix your automated systems!

David King

Was in town visiting and was told by a local to try this place. Got 3 pizzas to-go for the family (1 with a gluten free crust). All were delish! Definitely recommend for take out.

Miriam Treadway

Food- Had the candied bacon, feta, and cranberry burger. Was so good, burger was cooked and seasoned very well and nice and juicy. Came with a side of fries that were nice and crisp. Also had ordered an app of the onion rings, highly recommend. Price for value- Burgers were definitely on the higher side of what I pay for a burger, but the quality and topping definitely offsets paying a bit more. Allergies- They do offer gluten free buns. Service- It was busy so had to wait a few extra minute for items, waiter was attentive as he could be. Atmosphere- Nice larger beer garden, and plenty of fans outside too which is nice. Fun vibe.

Maryann Parsons

Glutened me

Harold D

Food was better than average, not great. Plenty of Gluten-free options. So loud I could barely hear the waitress (large open space). If like trendy and drink, then this is a good place.

Misti St. Pierre

Update 1/10/25 Daniel was our server tonight and he was excellent in word and action. He was exceptionally polite and inviting. The food was great! Peyton was the best waiter! He was attentive to several tables and kept everyone happy. He was personable and friendly. We enjoyed our evening celebrating our son's birthday. The food was delicious and came out quickly. Peyton paid attention to details and kept the drinks (root beer) flowing, and the table cleared of empty plates and glasses. We were pleased with the service. The manager even offered to bring out samples of prime rib for my husband to choose which one he preferred. It was cooked to perfection and had great flavor. My gluten free burger and salad were delicious. The gluten free pazookie and ice cream were also yummy.

Anna H

Not recommended if you have celiac disease. Stated they are gluten free on the phone how ever came in and they said they actually aren’t really gluten free and there is a lot of cross contamination.

Christina Mantas

Absolutely Delicious and Timely! We were passing through on the way back from Hill Country and ordered two pizzas from the road. Sofia's recommendations were spot-on, and her time-estimate exact! We stopped right in, picked up the pizzas, and hit the road again. The Gluten-Free pizzas are larger than you'd think, and so tasty! Thanks again!

Nicole Mount

Very cute restaurant, friendly staff, good food. Affordable kids options available. Gluten free and vegetarian options available.

Rebecca Sheeder

I recommend this place if you’re gluten sensitive! The GF crust was pretty good. Corbin provided excellent service!

Brett Walker

5 stars all around! They took great care of my gluten allergy. Great atmosphere outside to take a date.

Mariah M

They have a gluten free menu you just have to ask! Most sides can be gluten free, just make sure to specify an allergy—ask for corn tortillas and no chips(shared fryer). I am extremely symptomatic and have had no issues here. Brushfire is my fave with poblano ranch!

Jennifer

Server was very good at his job. We split the pizza and Caesar salad. Both were excellent. The sauce was chunky rather than blended. Just the right amount too. Finished with the gluten free cookie with vanilla ice cream. Would have been 5 stars but didn't have the gluten free beer I was looking forward to. While I understand that not many people order it, so probably not something you're going to have in stock, I was looking forward to it though :(

BaileyG

Delicious food. Fast, friendly service. Vegan and gluten free options! We came in on a slow Wednesday afternoon when they had just opened for lunch. The chef was there and he greeted us and thanked for coming. He's a wonderful man who welcomes you into his restaurant like it is your own home. And his food will make you feel like it truly is.

Minnie Shafer

We had a family dinner of 5. A young child who was ready to eat, and our wonderful server Joel was right on it & got her order immediately. Followed through with each of us & our food was perfection. Including a gluten free dinner. Will definitely return.

Batu Raja

We got a table on short notice and were given a wam greeting a seated immediately. My wife must be gluten free and our waiter was extremely well versed in what the kitchen could and could not do for her. We split a rack of lamb and it was cooked perfectly. I had an order of cornbread that was delicious. For dessert the chef prepared a gluten free Grand Marnier Vanilla Soufflé that my wife said was the absolute best dessert she has had in 30 years!!

Kristina Uriegas-Reyes

This is one of my favorite restaurants in San Antonio! The ambiance is fabulous and the food is incredibly delicious. When people are visiting, I bring them here because it feels elevated and unique. I love the boba cocktails and gluten free options. There's something for everyone! The noodles are a top favorite, but it's good to go with others so you can share and try different things. It's a perfect place for a date or celebration. Make sure to support this spot so it stays for a long time!

Carrie Asher

The food is a-MAZ-ing!! Even had gluten-free options that were simply fantastic! We had the Shrimp & Grits and the Bay of Fundy Salmon to share so we could sample each other's food. Mom got the Vice cake and the flavors in it were awesome. Can't wait to come back!!

Wait staff ignorant about food allergies and what's on their menu--led to illness. Despite my asking specifically for a gf menu (which they don't have one for their Sunday's menu) I made sure waitress knew I was allergic to gluten and dairy. She didn't know at all what on the Sunday menu could be made gf, which surprised me, so manager had to come over to let me know. I then ordered from waitress based on manager's info and specified vegan cheese on my migas and lots of extra vegan cheese. Asked the corn tortillas be extra crispy, too. Very specific. Instead got lots of real cheese and didn't realize it til half way done eating it and after asking the manager if it was real cheese which she confirmed it was. I rarely have real cheese so I'm not used to the taste and had to make sure and ask. Also, apparently when you order crispy migas without the vegetables...they give you plain corn tortillas rolled up in aluminum foil on the side instead of cutting them up and cooking them with the eggs. I mean, seriously???? I basically had scrambled eggs w cheese and paid for cold corn tortillas on the side. Had to take benadryl, lactose pills and IB right then and now an hour later my head predictably aches and my face is still hot. Hoping I don't get the usual migraine from dairy. Great way to start a Sunday. Oh, and waitress ignored us completely from then on: no apology, no trying to make it right, no clearing table, no refilling waters-- she just waited on tables all around and ignored us entirely. We had to get up to ask for all above and even to ask for the check from manager. Before leaving I told manager she's the worst waitress I've ever had (shes got dark brown hair with purple colored ends), is dangerous to customers, and since I used to wait tables in college I know what it takes. The manager apologized and tried to make it right by removing my meal from the order and offering a gf cupcake to go (which is only reason for the high 2 stars rating), but she confirmed the waitress is NOT new. In summary, Sunday menu needs to be updated with gf info and staff needs some serious retraining on what their menu is made up of, what good customer service looks like, and the seriousness of food allergies and sensitivities. Place is dangerous until they do.

Madelyn C Martinez

Our waitress, Chelsea, made our lunch break from after-Christmas shopping extremely enjoyable. She really helped us understand the options we had as some of us are gluten sensitive. We will definitely be back.

Wendy B. Greaux Digital

Loved the experience. The cheese course was my favorite. Tried the artichoke spinach and it was exceptional. They have a full gluten free menu that includes breads, desserts, etc. The meats were high quality. It was a lot for my husband and I when we order 2. I recommend only sharing 1 unless you are starving and want to skip dessert. Dessert, yum! We did the bananas foster and it was sooooo good. Light caramel flavor.

Gabby jarvis

Absolutely amazing neighborhood restaurant! I recommend going at sunset for the best experience. The interior is absolutely breathtakingly cozy and sweet. Fully cried guys. And the food?! Don’t even get me started! By far the best chicken Parmesan I’ve ever had! The chicken was breaded and crisped to perfection while still remaining juicy. My boyfriend opted for a gluten free pizza with too many toppings to list. His only complaint was wishing the toppings were cut and spaced a little more evenly. Over all amazing experience and will definitely be recommending. And so lgbtq+ friendly!!!!
