Top 50 Gluten-Free Dinner Spots to Delight in Venice

Taylor Downey

Went on a Saturday evening with my husband and newborn - we only had to wait about 20 minutes for a table. I have a severe gluten allergy and they were very accommodating. We started with the GF focaccia (delicious), followed by GF chicken Marsala and my husband got the spaghetti and meatballs - it was all very good! Server was knowledgeable about what I could and couldn't eat with my allergy and we had a very pleasant experience. Visiting from Maine, but will be back on our next trip!

Mike's came recommended from a friend. I was looking at the menu. My daughter has a gluten allergy and I saw a gluten free cauliflower crust pizza. So I ordered a regular pizza and the gluten free pizza also. Both were delicious. A pizza place with both delicious options has been found. ✔️

First and foremost, Sharkys has a separate gluten free menu with lots of choices!!! Bless you and Thank you! The lobster artichoke dip (served with corn chips) was PHENOMINAL! And the mahi fish tacos had a nice healthy portion of fish! The wait was an hour for inside seating, 75+ min for outside. This was around 5:30pm on a Friday. We'll worth the wait! I can't wait to go back and try something else. If you would like a quieter dining experience, sit indoors. Outside, to us, was very loud, between the people talking, music in the restaurant and the guy on the pier playing a sax, hosts announcing tables over the PA and the ocean. Overall a really good dining experience!

My wife and I really enjoyed Dockside for lunch. The food and drinks were very tasty. We both have a gluten allergy, and they have a GF menu available which is much appreciated!

Quaint little breakfast eatery. Indoor and outdoor seating. Fruit was fresh, French toast had gluten free option - superb. Italian eggs with cheesy hash browns- delicious. Everyone is so friendly, helpful and accommodating! 100 stars. Try it yourself. Oh- the apple cider mimosa- divine!

Brandon Gagliardo

Clean location with consistent quality food and an ever-friendly waitstaff. Great standby for lunch or dinner, with plenty of gluten free options.

Pamela Jew

Great spot by the ocean to enjoy some fresh seafood. Delicious food and drinks (get something it’s the beach). Also they had a gluten free menu for our friend. Ashley was the best and super helpful when it came to picking out food, drinks and the GF menu.

Bambi Furtado

We eat there at least once a week; I have been a patron for almost 20 years. I am celiac so have to maintain gluten free diet and must always be cautious of cross contamination. I am also vegan. I have never had an issue. The food is always very tasty, the staff and owner are warm, welcoming and very accommodating. Love this restaurant!

We have just moved to the area and have seen mad dogs hot dogs a few times and just not been there during opening hours. They finally caught a break and got there today. We met Maria and what a breath of fresh air she is! She was super helpful with suggestions especially since I have gluten allergy. It was the best gluten-free bun I have ever had. I had the route 66 which is chili Fritos and ranch dressing. Don't say yuck just try it it's amazing! The cream soda and the root beer were fantastic. She even poked her head out as we were leaving and welcomed us to the neighborhood! This is a 50 out of 10 place! Thank you Maria for such a wonderful intro to Venice!

You must visit Mon Ami Cafe in Venice if for no other reason than to get their delicious Turkey Avocado BLT. It’s typically served on a croissant but I like to get mine on their gluten-free toast. I don’t usually eat bread but this makes me feel like I’m not cheating all that much. The Sandwich comes with just the right amount of nicely dressed salad and a wee collection of the fruit de jour. The whole meal is the perfect sized lunch for most appetites. But if you’re still hungry there is a wide selection of decadent desserts in which to indulge. The atmosphere is bright and inviting. Some small groups meet here for nourishment as well as to chat and perhaps enjoy a card or board game. Check it out. But I encourage you to try my favorite—the Turkey Avocado BLT and while there say hello to Chef/owner Sergey, most recently from Ukraine.

Great subs! We did a sub comparison and this place won hands down. Try the Cuban, you won't be disappointed and they have a really good gluten free bun!

Kim Riley

Great food, very helpful with gluten free needs!

Hannah Moomey-Sowers

We have come here twice after church on Sunday. We have absolutely no complaints!! The all you can eat BBQ chicken dinner with unlimited sides is well worth the money. The waitstaff is great. We appreciate the variety of BBQ sauces and that they have Stevia Sweetened and knowledgeable about gluten allergy. There are also so many options for better-for-you sides like cucumber salad, green beans, and collards. We will be coming sometime in the week for other all you can eat options.

Dan Anulare

My pasta has to be gluten free. I am a celiac. Troy makes my pasta with fresh water. He is amazing and just gets it! Kathy the bartender is always happy and on top of my order. She makes sure that we are taken care of. This is the first time we had Alecia at bar and she was great too. Kathy taught her right.

Matt Siket

The food and service were both exceptional. They had plenty of gluten-free options as well. Tansel, our waiter, was fantastic. This place is a must visit.

This place has great pizza and chicke parm! Must try the pasta if you order the chic parm. It’s amazing. Pizza is wonderful. The gluten free with vegan cheese is one of my wife’s favorites!! Highly recommend!!

Hilary

Gobsmacked. Gluten-free dinner here. I ordered the cauliflower crust and the wings. Fryer is used for other non-gf items but if that level of contamination is okay with you the wings are large, juicy, flavorful. The pizza. I stopped eating. Flagged down the server and made my husband try the pizza. I was preparing to get sick. The server then said, I get asked this all the time. The owner proudly came over with the box from sysco displaying the ingredients. I kid you not, this is the best pizza I have had in 3 years. Run, don't wall gluten free diners to get really delicious pizza that isn't overly cauliflower!!! 🤯🤯🤯

Mary Jernigan

Food was very good. My husband had the steak fajitas & enjoyed them. I had chicken enchiladas. The chicken seasoning was very good &.chicken was plentiful. GLUTEN FREE: options are limited but you can get refried beans & corn enchiladas with chicken & green sauce. The rice is fried & the fajita seasoning includes soy sauce. Chips are not safe.

Mariah Alexandrou

Best sushi around, thai food is amazing too!!! Love the panang curry and that their sweet and sour is gluten free! One of my favorite places to eat in the area.

Will Widmoyer

This place is great! The food was amazing and they have a lot of gluten free options. The waiters were nice. 5 stars!!!

Erin DuBose

Really great pizza and great prices! A lot of places have super running off the slice grease on their pizza. These slices are perfect without the access amounts of grease from other places. Everything is delicious and the staff is friendly and welcoming! I visit once a week for a slice special. Have recommended others to come here also. The restaurant is also kept clean and tidy, and bright inside. I mean look how huge this slice is! Perfect for a lunch without buying a whole pie! They even have a gluten free pizza for those with allergies.

Tom Lamorte

Best gluten free pizza I've ever tasted

Carol Parella

What a hoot! Old style Florida on the Myakka River. Great food and beer selection and a separate gluten free menu! Outside picnic table seating in a natural setting on the river. Canoe and kayaks for rent. And live music that was terrific. Fun place that takes you away from the usual beachy scene. Boat tours available too! Keep your eyes peeled for gators.🤭

Wendi Anderson

Love the gluten free options

Lauren Schauer

Great meal and great server! One gluten free person, one vegetarian, one person who doesn’t eat cheese, and one meat lover, yet we were all satisfied. Joy, our server, was attentive to all our needs and made it a wonderful experience.

Sue L

Delicious cauliflower gluten free pizza, & Big slice NY style pizza.

Elizabeth Potts

Quick service. Great margaritas. Accommodating to gluten allergy.

Donna Pattinson O'Connor

Great gluten free buns and delicious sweet tater fries! Quick service

Jane Anderson

We got carryout here a few days ago and were really impressed. Great little restaurant with a nice interior if you want to dine in. Delicious food. Also very gluten-free friendly. If you enjoy Thai food, you can't go wrong with Baiyoke Thai.

Jessica Foltz

Great gluten free options for someone with celiac disease or a gluten intolerance!

Culver's offers some of the best fast food that can be had. If you're gluten-free they have a wonderful warm gluten-free bun in a separate package that really makes a great sandwich

Carrie Simeon

I emailed about gluten free options and right away received this email! When I visit Venice in 2024, I will definitely be eating here confidently as a celiac. Good morning! Thank you for taking the time to email about our gluten-free items that we offer. We have a nice variety which consists of our proteins brisket, pulled pork, ribs, chicken, and even our Alaskan salmon, shrimp salads, sides, which one of my favorite is cucumber salad. Our bbq sauces for the barbecue are gluten-free as well. We appreciate you taking the time to email and look forward to hopefully seeing you very soon. Hope you’re enjoying this beautiful weather and have a fantastic day. Darrell n Family

Kelly Dacey

Absolutely love this place! Amazing gluten free pizza and sweet service

Amber

Looks can be deceiving. Behind the simple store front is magic! Their food is always of the highest quality and made with care. As a celiac I struggle to find a Chinese restaurant that has gluten free options. They are so kind to have taken the time to go over the menu options with me, making sure that I choose the rice noodles over the others that contain gluten. There has not been a time that I haven't been met with kindness and patience when ordering at Pings. I would highly recommend them over any and all chain Chinese restaurants.

Galen Rydzik

Great food and gluten friendly, highly recommended!

Fred Chalmers

Gluten free pizza was the only thing on the menu GF except salad, no gluten pasta options. Piles thickly with bland cheese, yhe only fkavor was overpowering raw garlic to the point of inedible.

Alli

This was my first time eating Sushi and being Celiac on top of that I was nervous. Peter who I believe may have been a manager and John our waiter, took time to explain everything to me. To show me their sauces that were gluten free. He basically said unless it's fried I can make anything you want. They do the Hibachi separate so no cross contamination. They have gluten-free soy and sweet chili sauce. We had the Titanic and Naruto rolls and the Salmon skin roll which they do grill. The food was amazing we will definitely be back! Thank you for a great experience.

Chris and Stephanie Ashley

Did you know you can ask for any sandwich they make...but as a salad? Delicious. And no bread carbs or gluten to worry about. This location, staff are excellent.

Mike W

First time there this morning after driving by while looking for sharks teeth at a local nearby spot. Staff was very polite. Food was excellent. Open for lunch and breakfast and dinner on Saturday and Sunday evenings. When we came in we were the 3rd set of dinners, by the time we had left, it had tripled. Decor was clean, and pleasant. I know this sounds like a simple request, but this is the first place that we have gone to, that knows how to cook a fried egg over medium. Hash browns were excellent, as was my french toast. They also offer gluten free toast. Do not expect this to be the cheapest place to have breakfast, however it is very worth the pricing. There is a place we go to every Sunday in Venice that is fairly popular and pricing here was about 15% higher, but food here was much better, and the interior here is much more comfortable. We will come back here for Breakfast as well as try them for dinner.

Rick Schupp

Stopped in for dinner because we had read the gluten free seafood penne was good. My wife ordered it, but the sauce was really salty. It was ok, but not what she had hoped for. I had the shrimp and gross and it was great. Service was good and happy hour was nice.

Courtney Brady

First time here. Everything was amazing. Service was 10/10 Fabio was the best server. I got a gluten free pizza (bottom pizza in photo) and it was the best gluten free pizza ive had. Will absolutely come back and tell my friends and family to come.

Kimberly Carruthers

Wonderful experience! Great service and great gluten-free options! Love the sidewalk seating to see beautiful downtown Venice!
