Top 29 Gluten-Free Celiac Friendly Spots to Explore in Anaheim

The person making the pizza was amazing! I was worried about the gluten free pizza and he explained they don’t use the press for it, changed his gloves, and made sure they didn’t use the same sauce or brush on the gluten free pizza. He even made sure he could do the cinnamon pizza gluten free.

Ordered the Garlic Cream Fettucini and it was dry so we asked for more sauce. It had to be approved by the manager since it was made to order. They made more sauce and brought it out. I also ordered the gluten free BBQ chicken pizza and it was great! My daughter even like it and stole a piece!

This is a good place for a quick burger or strips. It was fast and there are lots of tables to sit at. My sister liked the gluten free burger and their chicken strips were yummy! Staff were friendly.

Great gluten and dairy free pepperoni pizza and Italian salad! The chef came out and talked to me to make sure everything was ok. Very friendly staff and fast service. I’ve been twice since our trip started, and hope to get a pizza to-go before we leave.

This is a good quick place for a meal. My sister has celiacs disease so the chef came out to take her order, chef was very friendly and guided her through the menu. She got the Tostada Salad with chicken, no tortilla shell or refried beans to make it gluten free, it tasted like a burrito bowl, the dressing was delicious!

This was our family’s favorite place for lunch in the parks. Plenty of options and we got the Low and Slow club standard and gluten-free option. I would have ate this every day for lunch if I had known it would have been best sandwich in park. Also highly recommend the chili mango margarita it was best cocktail our entire time in Anaheim. Several options for food for kids and refreshments for adults when things get stressful. This is a must stop eatery in Cars Land!!

I was able to get the Gluten/Wheat friendly Pollo Asado street tacos, and got no reaction! Best gluten free option in the resort for me!

Our family of five (4 adults, 1 toddler) Had the pleasure of dining at The Blue Bayou this past Saturday evening. We were really looking forward to a nice sit-down dinner after a fun-filled but long, hot day in the park, and The Blue Bayou did not disappoint! Between the five of us, we had 3 hurricane cocktails and 1 Mocktail, 2 Watermelon and tomato salads, 2 Ribeye entrées, 2 Market fish entrées and 1 Sautéed shrimp meal from the children’s menu. We thoroughly enjoyed all of our selections and were quite impressed with the attention to dietary restrictions (gluten & dairy for two diners In our party). It was so refreshing to see a fish entrée on the menu that was not only gluten and dairy compliant, but also absolutely delicious (with a sauce that I can’t wait to re-create at home!)! We were thrilled to see a children’s menu that had “real” food on it, and not just macaroni and cheese, chicken nuggets, etc. Our youngest diner, my 2 1/2 year-old granddaughter, loves shellfish, and she devoured her sautéed shrimp, rice, and fruit plate! We also found the portions to be quite substantial and opted to skip dessert. Service was impeccable and we were seated within minutes of our 5:50 PM reservation time. While the restaurant is pricey (almost $400 for our meal outlined above), We really appreciated having this dining option available to us, instead of the usual fast food selections at most amusement parks. Thank you, Blue Bayou staff, for a wonderful meal and dining experience!

We visited Disney's California Adventure Park for the first time on 6/8/2023. My son has atypical Celiac Disease and needs to eat a gluten free diet. We were delighted that this park provides some gluten free options so we did not have to haul around all our own food. At the Smokejumpers Grill, my son ate a Gluten-free Double Cheeseburger with two Angus Beef Patties, Smoked Cheddar, Lettuce, Tomato, Pickle Slices, and Grilled Onion. We asked for no Sauce and no Bun. The hamburger was served on shredded lettuce, which was fine because my son usually separates hamburgers before eating them. He also had the Crinkle-cut Fries. Now, if you have a citrus allergy, please know that most restaurants in the park sell Cuties® Mandarin Oranges. If you have a citrus allergy like I do, eat lunch or dinner early, before everyone else, so you are not exposed to the citrus scents, and sit far to the left outside so you are upwind and the wind will blow the citrus scent away from you. If you have 25+ allergies like me, this is a great restaurant to sit at because its closer to the park entrance. I cannot eat out due to the long allergy list, so I have to keep my food in the lockers by the entrance. From this restaurant I was able to head off to the lockers, get out my packed allergy friendly food, come back and sit with my family to eat, and then put all my items back in the locker before heading out for more rides. This was the only allergy friendly restaurant close enough to the lockers for me to eat a meal with my family.

I’ve eaten here for breakfast and lunch. Sitting outside closest to Main Street and watching people trickle in while eating breakfast is one of my favourite ways to have a relaxing Disney morning. Food has always been good and they have good gluten free options. A reservation is recommended. Staff have always been friendly and helpful.

My visit to the Hungry Bear Restaurant in Disneyland was quite enjoyable, despite the hustle and bustle typical of a busy theme park. While the atmosphere was a tad chaotic, which is to be expected, the efficiency of the staff impressed me. Despite the long lines, we swiftly found seating, placed our order, and received our food promptly, all prepared just as we requested. I recommend the burger, chicken tenders, and onion rings – delicious choices! Plus, it's worth noting their gluten-free options, catering to various dietary needs. Overall, the Hungry Bear Restaurant did a commendable job of providing a satisfying dining experience amidst the excitement of Disneyland. Four stars well-deserved!

I really enjoyed their take on the Caesar salad, and their breakfast, especially the tater tots is good. They have their breakfast platter with a gluten free option that my sister with celiacs really enjoyed also. There is lots of seating and service is quick and friendly. I didn’t enjoy the giant chocolate bar.

Wonderful experience. My daughter is gluten intolerant and they made her feel like she was VIP! The chef came out and gave her a tour of what she could eat and offered her a specialized menu where she can order her own pizza just for her. Overall great food and wonderful service! Definitely recommend!!!

Vanessa Becker

We had the gluten free pepperoni pizza. My sister has celiacs disease and the chef came out to take our order to ensure it’s all gluten free. The pizza was very greasy which made the crust a little soggy. Staff were all friendly and there are lots of places to sit in the area.

First time trying, all gluten free options were great, the service was quick at the Anaheim Co location. Staff were polite and answered questions. The food was ok at best, and the chicken( what chicken?where’s the chicken?) in the hearty chicken bowl. 2 small pieces about the size of a small adults pinky? If that’s the norm then maybe there should be an OZ amount on the menu in order to add more for a healthy portion for the future.

Sadie Driscoll

Came in and asked for gluten free options. Server said only the vegan options were gluten free and nothing else. She said even the cookie one was gluten free which it wasn’t. There are many gluten free options besides the vegan one and she didn’t know what she was doing.

Alicia Wallace

A good stop for food if you didn’t make reservations anywhere. I thought they had gluten free chicken but they were out of… the whole reason we waited in line and rushed in. It’s cafeteria style self service with outdoor seating potentially in the sun. I ended up with the salmon and green beans and it was a solid and healthy option. The non gluten free people enjoyed the fried chicken and chocolate cake!

Vanessa Becker

I’ve eaten here a couple times for small treats, the grey stuff is actually delicious, but not gluten free. My sister who has celiacs disease has had breakfast here. She had the bonjour breakfast with the gluten free substitutions. Staff were friendly and accommodating. It came with a warm bun and was very yummy!

Julie Ferrari Beyer

We choose this restaurant because it was touted as a local favorite and had a gluten friendly menu. We had several options but know that the roasted potatoes are not included any longer as gluten free. They did give us several options though and they have gluten free toast. Everyone loved their meals. My granddaughter,12, said her Belgian waffles were the best she'd ever had. The server was very nice and very helpful in our choosing of gluten free items. We all left happy and full. Bonus is they have mimosas and other breakfast cocktails. I highly recommend this place.

I’ve eaten here a few times on my Disney trips. I usually get the Monte Cristo sandwich because it’s so yummy! So I can’t say much about other items. Big enough to share. The fries are delicious and beignets are always a treat! Service is good. There’s a few gluten free options my sister likes, you can get the monte cristo sandwich gluten free but they need 24 hours in advance so if you get a reservation make sure to let them know if you’re wanting this dish.

We were supposed to meet my family at Olive Garden and on the way there we got a call that plans had changed and we would be going to Wood Ranch Bbq instead. We had never heard of it. Just because of the change it made me grumpy and I wasn't feeling like I wanted to like it. Typical hangry behaviour! It was packed inside on a Sunday evening but it was during winter holiday just after Christmas. We had to split our party into 2 booths back to back which worked out fine. We walked in with 10 people. Service was good and our waitress was attentive especially given how crowded it was. The food was really yummy. It wasn't typical bbq style like all smokey and barbeque saucy. It was properly grilled with really savory flavors. My sister is gluten free, corn free and soy free and had no trouble ordering. We sampled a lot and everything was pretty amazing from the farmhouse salad and burgers to the trout and French fries! I had the chicken tortilla soup and it was the best I've ever had. Everyone tried it and agreed!! Kids menus were provided too. Price is a little higher for a family dinner out but then again it is a steakhouse. The prices are comparable to any similar type of steakhouse. AND, had been prepared for Olive Garden pricing. My sister paid $100 for her and her 2 teenage kids which was 2 steaks and the trout. For the other 7 of us the price was $140 not too bad but 2 were kids meals and I just had the soup. We did not order anything extra or ala carte except the 2 grandmothers each had a glass of wine. If you plan for the expense...it is totally worth it.

The Gluten Free Ratatouille was INCREDIBLE!! The staff were very well prepared for allergies, and the chef even came to our table to talk to us about how they prep the meals, and the ingredients used! My wife who has a diary allergy got the beef short rib and I can’t say enough good things about the Ratatouille! You have to try all of the different drinks themed after Disney and Pixar movies! A must try, and do it at bedtime for your kids when they’re napping and you can enjoy the sunset on the Pixar Pier :)

No longer serve people with gluten allergies. Was just turned away.

This place is an awesome Tiki experience, with some great drinks and a wonderful atmosphere. Food offerings were also great and they could accommodate my partners gluten allergy.

Krista Radford

Fantastic and speedy service, delectable cuisine, and I was incredibly thrilled to discover the availability of gluten-free options 💜🥲

I love having a nice meal while at Disney. It's such a go go go experience at the park. It's nice to sit, relax, eat some amazing food with a nice glass of wine. My 8 month old even took a nap for 30 minutes. Love their food. If you have an allergy restriction like I do(dairy, gluten, soy & egg), they are more than accommodating.
