Delish!

Ryan Perel

100% gluten free Mexican food in the heart of Austin! The food was delicious, and I legit wanted to eat the whole menu if I had an endless budget. You can’t go wrong with any item.

Maggie K

Great food! And really busy, make a reservation for indoor dining. Carnitas and mango margs were my favorite. All gf!

Cathleen

They know their way around a green bean!! Tons of gluten free options, super delicious. My faves are the green beans and sticky rice

Alli MacKay

Grabbed lunch with our family and a friend. Our server was super accommodating for my wife’s gluten allergy and our active toddler. We’ve had date nights and lunch at Neighborhood Sushi and the food/service are 5 stars every time.

Lawrence Powell

Great place for Tex-Mex. Lots of gluten free options.

Scott Conner

Jack Allen's is legit one of the best places in Austin. We've been a fan for years, and they've even catered our wedding back in 2011 when they used to do that. Jack's menu has stood the test of time. Their specials are fantastic, and when they found out the margaritas has gluten in them (my wife is allergic) they even changed their recipe for it. Hands down great value. You can seat 2 adults, two kids, appetizers, drinks, and dessert for far more reasonable prices than "trendy" places who either charge more or dont have nearly as good food. If you don't like Jack's, your standards are wrong and I suggest you just move back to LA where at least you can feel important about it.

Overall, the atmosphere is fairly nice with very kind and friendly wait staff. True Food Kitchen has a well rounded menu with accommodates for vegetarian, gluten free, and vegan with clearly labled dishes for such. Additionally, the flavor profile is fairly diverse so if you are vegan like me, you will not be restricted to a single option and have a few choices to make.

Deuces Wyld

Delicious food. Tons of gluten-free options. The chicken sausage is delicious! Friendly staff!

Amanda DeGan

Go here to eat! Fabulous food and service and so many gluten free choices.

Caleb Barlow

Ate here for dinner with a friend tonight, absolutely delicious meal! Very impressed with their menu, everything we ordered was good! Plenty of gluten free items marked on their menu which made it very convenient for me to order. Only downside is the price - pretty expensive, so definitely an every once in a while or special occasion type of restaurant. Also skip the drinks, while they were good, they were pricey ($15-20), so save your money for the food!!

Kathryn Thurman

Always able to find something Gluten free at Snooze. Servers are knowledgeable about allergies and gluten free

Samantha Farber

We went for happy hour and they’ve got a great selection. I’m gluten-free and they were well-versed on what precautions to take and able to answer any questions I had about modifications.

Meg Eck

Scratch pasta (even gluten free available!), wood fired pizzas and a chocolatear owner. Eating here was a truly wonderful experience. You can get dressed up or keep it casual. The food was outstanding, and you may need to order 2 entrees just because they're so good and you'll want to try more, but the portions were perfect. Appetizers were great and a rotating truffle menu for dessert was scrumptious. Will definitely revisit for the next birthday.

I'm gluten free and the fact that the have gluten free dumplings?!?!!! Game over. The dumplings are so light and delicate and delicious. I've gotten I think all of the gluten free ones at different times? And they are all amazing. Big fan of their spicy chili oil and their bacon fried rice too! If you're feeling spicy, get the Le Hot - their spicy cocktail. Not too spicy and perfectly balanced!

Always love coming to this movie theater - it's my favorite in Austin! The customer service is always great, the location is great, and the ambiance is nice. I love that there's a little cocktail bar next door and that there are plenty of restaurants within walking distance. Not that you'll be hungry! Alamo's gluten free pizza is awesome, their popcorn is freaking addictive, and their shakes!! I love their shakes, boozy or not.

Janie Klapko

I order take out from here all the time and have celiac - they are so accommodating and kind and do their best to avoid cross-contamination. Cannot recommend enough.

Julie Cross

This is a new brunch must for my husband and I! I recently became gluten free and had the BEST GF pancakes I’ve had yet. They also can make almost any menu item GF. My mother in law is also Vegan and said her pancakes were also incredible. The service was great. The vibe was awesome. They have indoor and outdoor seating as well. Do yourself a favor and GET THE BACON 😋

Madison M

The gluten free cacio e pepe is excellent!

Joe Pearson

This is the place where both my wife and I think about going for a great seafood dinner. Also, my wife is gluten in intolerance, but she can get her crab cakes, which is hard to find gluten-free. They take great care of her, and she truly enjoys her meals there.

Stephanie Birds N Bees Farm

Love the crispy Salmon with crab (arugula?) salad. So fresh, delivious, and healthy. Love Jack Allen's Taste good, feel good gluten free options.

D T

Came here for a birthday and it was a wonderful experience! We got the hush puppies, the new Orleans style shrimp, the salmon dip, oysters, roasted potatoes, and a fried shrimp platter. Everything was so delicious and our waitress was phenomenal. She knew which items on the menu were gluten free and which could have a modification to become gluten free. It was a lovely birthday lunch and we'll happy be back again!

Newton Tim Clark

Gotta be my new favorite place to bring outta towners, speaking as a long time local. Set in this crazy wild lush old mansion with vibes of a seance but like also dark sexy disco but like luxe too, hard to describe. Think velvet and brass and 1920’s sketched art. Everything was amazing, steak great, salad great. Gotta be the only place in town with gluten free Korean style fried chicken but like elevated, fancy place worthy and with a crunch that makes a case for all fried chicken to be gluten free. Guarantee I’m not gonna explain it well, but the cabbage dish in particular makes the case for cabbage being everywhere the way Brussels sprouts are now. Also huge portions for what I’m used to on my east side, and everything was just so filling and the place hospitable. Jace our waiter in particular made the night extra special for me and my date. Also I want ya to be surprised so I won’t spoil it, but check out the curtain holders, also the bathrooms are crazy cool too

Natassia Wilde

Do not sleep on this place! Excellent food, friendly staff, great environment, incredible prices. Amazing hidden gem! Gluten free burger on plantains with pineapple??? Yes please. Don’t miss the empanadas either. 10/10

Joe Conley

Latte fine, chai tea latte good, smoothie just ok, Mr. Natural gluten free donuts good (and two of us have celiac disease, so gluten free is key), pretzel fine, vibe good but no one much around Saturday at 1:00 pm.

B Lipka

Enjoyed an evening out at the Domain. My son recommended eating at the Culinary Dropout. We were seated right away. After looking at the menu I wasn't sure if they offered allergen free items, but found out quickly from the waiter that the Chef made various Gluten free dinners at request. I ordered the fresh fish. The dinner was delicious. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Everyone else at the table reported there food was delicious as well.

Elliot Aquila

Been going to Taco Flats for three years now thanks to a referral from a friend. Their jicama tortillas are my favorite in town. If you like fish tacos then try the pescadero or fish el pastor on jicama. Yummmm!!!! They have a fresh salad as an appetizer that is out of this world. It comes with fruit and a nice sweet dressing. Lastly, their gluten free chips and guacamole are incredible if you have friends in your group that have food allergies.

Cayce Johnson

Gluten free safe. Loved the meal!

Lindsey R

There was a brief time of coming here that it seemed to be going downhill, at least in my experience, but it seems to be improving. It was never really bad for a bit there I had some times of not-as-great service, the food was not as great as it had before. Plus certain things, like the seats, started to look busted. Granted, most of that was likely part of recovering from the Covid shutdown and aftermath. As well as the change in ownership. Lately when I've visited, the food quality and options have been great. They still have a good amount of options for Gluten Free/friendly needs. And they have Coke Zero now...yessss! The service has also been great- the servers are usually very helpful and friendly. On there website it mentions undergoing remodeling- so hopefully that means getting new seats because a lot of them are busted...and by that I mean the fabric on many of the seats are really worn out. The color has worn off and you can see holes in the fabric and threads underneath and it just overall looks like you want to spray a bottle of disinfectant on it. I still highly enjoy coming here, though. Hopefully it continues to be a fun place to go!

An INSTANT go to -- great price to quality ratio, amazing taste, broad menu, and extensive gluten free options. Food and service were both quick and excellent. Easiest 5 star in awhile.

Alisa Robinson

I went for a friend's birthday and had a wonderful time. The staff is excellent and I was really happy that they had gluten-free buns. I got a chicken sandwich with small fries and both were delicious. The inside is kind of small but we somehow didn't have issues getting tables for our large party (over 15 people)

Shari Blalock

I went to Arlo Grey while I was in Austin on a work trip. We stayed at The Line where the restaurant is located. The food, the accommodations for dietary restrictions, the drinks and staff were all top-tier. Our waiter, Brandon, was fantastic. We appreciated that we had a waiter who thoughtfully recommended items that vegans and gluten-free guests could enjoy with the group. And there's a lazy Susan in the middle of some of the tables. The precision and care that our food was laid out and spinned to the correct person 10/10 times. It was clear the chef and owners put a lot of thought into the concept but also into their team on the front side of the house. I would definitely go back the next time I'm in Austin. Cheers, Bran! You rock!

Georgette M. DuBois

Class, in every way! Staff, menu options (including a gluten free menu), cocktails and ambiance.

AE AE

Zack was PHENOMENAL! We had a team dinner for work and Zack was super attentive and knowledgeable about celiac disease. He asked about food allergies immediately and made sure to tell me what I could eat, he even brought our dishes made specifically for me 🖤 Amazing experience.

Mike Milburn

Another great Opa night last night. Stopped in after Pickleball for dinner/drinks. The gluten free pizza's are delicious (almost better than the normal ones). We love it and come here 2-3x/month

Jacquelyn Raasch

Elwanda Morgan

The meal was absolutely amazing. It truly gave me an authentic Japanese experience, just like when I visited Tokyo. The food was incredibly delicious, and the service was excellent. They were very accommodating and took care of my gluten allergy. If I lived nearby, I would definitely be a frequent customer.

Lila Milam

Overpriced, obviously squeezing in as many people as possible. No sound dampeners in a concrete room. Two private rooms for big groups, $65 and $85 with table service. Tight fit. Not much available for gluten sensitive people and they are very strict about bringing in food.

Shelby Jacobs

Do not pass up a visit to this place!! We had the most delicious crepes brunch here. My (gluten free) boyfriend had the gf turkey pesto savory crepe, and I the croque madame crepe and they were both perfection!! Tons of flavor and high quality, fresh ingredients. I also had their delicious peach tea and my boyfriend enjoyed his americano. This is definitely a gem of Austin (the kind chef, original art deco lobby, outdoor seating availability and the fact they also serve cocktails was a bonus!).

Kimberly Rau

We love Emmer & Rye and Canje, so were very excited to try Ezov. The food was great and the service was very friendly and efficient. As an added bonus- I’m celiac and the menu was very gluten free friendly. There were only a handful of things that were off limits/needed to be modified.

Barbara Finch

Another fabulous meal and celebration at Satellite Bistro! Three great things: the food is fresh, creative and delicious,....they have plenty of accommodations for gluten free, and they take reservations! Yay we love y’all!

Farah Metzger

AKB bar at Archer Hotel was a great location to host our SafeHorns meet and greet happy hour (AKB calls it Sunset Hour)! Not many restaurants or bars have happy hours on Saturdays but AKB does! Plus they let me reserve some bar tables. It’s a beautiful lobby and restaurant. AKB has lots of drink specials and good assortment of appetizers. We tried the pepperoni pizza, brussel sprouts (with pork belly) and guacamole & chips, all of which were tasty. I’m glad they have gluten free & vegetarian options on the happy hour menu. Free parking in the Nordstrom garage which is just a five minute walk away or valet parking at Archer (I think valet is around $16).

Kirby Smith

The is the best I've had in years! Lamb biryani at spicy hot was so rich and satisfying. Prices are excellent for the portions and everything was delicious. Even the temperature of the food was perfect. Menu clearly showed items that contained gluten, which I needed. The staff was friendly and perfectly attentive. I will be back the next time I am in Austin.

Carolina Hernandez

Great food and they have gluten free options

Michael Timmons

The food was amazing. Was able to find delicious vegetarian and gluten free options.

Heidi Timer

Had a great first date here. They were very accommodating for my gluten restriction. Definitely try the house made liquors!!
