Top 37 Gluten-Free Dinner Spots to Delight in St. Charles

Jamie Faber

Our group of 22 had a wonderful dinner and evening at Mio Modo! The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Brian and the other staff were kind, efficient snd attentive. Personally, I present a challenge to restaurants because I am plant-based and gluten free plus no/minimal oil, but totally enjoyed the lentil/spinach dish. A beautiful array of desserts were served at the end, and I was especially grateful for the surprise serving of a delicious raspberry sorbet as the staff had obviously understood my limitations! Thank you for the wonderful meal, service and ambiance, Mio Modo! 1 Corinthians 10:31

I get gluten fee beef or gluten free combos and they're always able to hit the spot... I really like their beef!!!

Came here for my birthday, was an awesome experience. Wonderful atmosphere as well. I have a gluten allergy, and the waiter was very accommodating and helpful. They have awesome gluten free bread, and the gnocchi I got was wonderful. I really appreciate the staff that took the time to make sure I was able to enjoy my dinner! I will definitely be going back for more celebrations/date nights.

Food was awesome and was celiac safe. The manager spoke to us personally on what we could expect and assuaged our fears. Will come back again 🫶

Great smaller location with a ton of different pizza crust options!! My wife said the gluten free pizza was one of the best she’s ever had. Location was great with an upstairs that can be rented out. Lots of different beers on tap with multiple TVs. Higher hung TVs makes it great to still talk with your table while getting a great view. In downtown St. Charles it can be harder to find parking. Overall it’s totally worth the trip and I will be going back!! Some great pizza and staff!

Very friendly staff and great subs. Gluten free subs are available upon request and are prepared in a separate area

Melinda Bednar

Gia Mia was great. Attended a wedding reception yesterday. Gluten selections were delicious. The servers were AWESOME!!!

Jim Bucks

I'm Gluten free, so when I saw they had a GF menu I was very excited! What I received when I ordered left a lot to be desired. The staff was very accommodating and replaced my meal with a sushi salmon roll wich was good.

Mike Klikas

They have the best gluten free spicy Mongolian beef.

Our favorite pizza place!! Billy bricks is so good, and they are one of the only allergen-friendly pizza places in the area. They have dairy-free cheese and gluten-free crusts. We love the bbq chicken pizza with dairy free cheese, but you really can’t go wrong with any of their speciality pizzas. Pizzas are always hot and ready right on time for pickup.

Some of the best food I have ever had. I have to eat gluten free, which means food typically is terrible. Syrup has the BEST gluten free pancakes I have had. I nearly gave up trying many places around the area. Syrup is a wee bit of a hike for me, however, it is the highlight of my month as I reward myself once a month to this amazing place. My whole family loves it, the price isn't too bad considering the HUGE portions of delicious pancakes. My wife says the skillets are just perfect too, and my toddler also loves the pancakes.

The food is truly fresh, healthy and excellent but what really made this restaurant stand out was the welcoming and generous service of the young woman who handled our take out orders. We picked up lunch to go for the last two days and both times she generously offered for us to sample some other dishes. The first day she offered a bag of their homemade pita chips, imported peach soda and these fabulous dessert treats of fig balls rolled in coconut and tahini. The second day, she offered samples of their Arabic coffee with cardamon and banana bread. This spiced coffee was like nothing we had ever had. Their dolma and tabbouleh were both fresh and delicious. There are many healthy and vegan options. The dishes were not too salty which I appreciate. I think many items may also be gluten free since they include rice. I highly recommend everything we had the pleasure to try.

Tammy Breese

Loved this place. Food was amazing. Service friendly. Naan was the best ever. I can't have gluten but this was worth it!! Will be back when I'm in the area. Just wish it was closer.

Laszlo Bernath

Gluten free items. Flavorful soup. Lots of ingredients. I was well certified with my selection. Not for sensitive eaters who do not eat unusual ingredients like tripe, soften tendon.

Mike Klikas

I asked for something that wasn't on the menu and it was no problem for them whatsoever. I asked for it to be spicy and gluten free. It was fantastic. I asked for green beans and beef and wow. So good. Xie xie

Nancy Conradt

Great Thai food. Will do gluten free, vegan or other special diet requests as well.

V Coffland

Inexpensive and you can get as many toppings as you want! Gluten free and vegan options!

Chris O'Reilly

We love this Rosati’s! They have the most amazing gluten free crust, which we need because my wife has a gluten allergy. Asad, in particular, took care of us with a discount and unrivaled hospitality. We will be regulars!

Place is outstanding. Straight up 🔥 The menu is outstanding. And the hot sake, yes please, get that..every time. Very beautiful restaurant and bar. Very well done and our service was so good. Had an excellent time here. Had some drinks, had some plates to share. Had some more drinks. It was just an easy place to hang out and try interesting, beautifully made food. Gluten-free friendly too. A huge + for me To be fair: The veggie fried rice was meh The fuki roll was pretty good And I've had better martinis But for me Moto imōto hot hit on the "how" not the "what.". It's probably never going to be nominated for a James Bears Award but I still loved how it made me feel. And for that, I will go back every time. It's a pretty place to eat and we had a good time here. For that, 10/10 recommend

Thea Matthews

Loved my breakfast here. I had the best gluten free pancakes with blueberries and my hubby had the regular pancakes which were huge and yummy. The service was great, the staff was really helpful and friendly, the place was clean, and our food came fairly quickly. I highly recommend.

Jeff Katz

Went for lunch when I was the area and the food was very good. From the outside it looks like an old Popeyes and I was skeptical, but the food was very good and it’s a good deal! Also I’m gluten free and almost everything on the menu is gluten free except the pita. Highly suggest it, wish they had a location up by me as I would go pretty often.

Ashley Cusimano

The workers were friendly and worked efficiently. They were also gluten-friendly and conscious of my allergies

Mikey B

Top tier experience. It's more than just pictures, it's the real deal. It's better in real life. Walked in on a Tuesday, early hour with my date and we both have nothing but good things to say. The first impression was booming. It's a beautiful space. So beautifully decorated and thoughtfully put together. Kaylie our server and the bartender was great. Service was prompt and professional. Everyone had a smile and friendly attitude. The food was 🎉 Lots of gluten-free options, which for me a huge plus. They have a whole gluten-free menu, that's nice to take out the guess work. Protip: Get the Seven Spicy Tuna of toasted rice or whatever it's technically called. (I'm close enough) lol. So good 🤤🤤🤤 Great experience. 10/10 recommend

Christopher Febles

Ordered a 14” GLUTEN FREE pizza but when I picked it up (but didn’t realize until I got home and family started eating it) that the pizza WAS NOT GLUTEN FREE EVEN THOUGH I REPEATED IT WHEN I ORDERED IT, I called and told them they messed up my order and was expecting compensation, but nothing 🙄. Oh well, they’ll be last I call next time……

Sam Chase

Great food and cocktails. Love the inclusion of an all vegan/gluten free menu!

Sunday June 18, 2023 Father’s Day My son made a 6 pm reservation for my wife, i and him to celebrate Father’s Day. It was the first time at La Za Za for us. We checked in at 5:50 and were immediately seated at an outdoor table. Lisa our server was at our table within 1 minute of being seated to take our drink orders. Since we were having wine with dinner, we all had sparkling water. We were going to have a gluten free pizza as an appetizer, but Lisa promptly returned and told us that us that was not available. She made a couple of recommendations and we selected the Melanzine Griglia, egg plant stuffed with ricotta, mozzarella & parmigiana cheeses and topped with a tomato basil sauce and mozzarella cheese. I can no longer say I don’t like egg plant, it was fantastic! There was also a bread basket with a bowl of salsa for dipping. We all ordered a glass of Justin Cabernet wine that Lisa recommended and it was quite nice. For entrees my wife ordered the 8 oz Filet with roasted potatoes and fresh mixed vegetables. Lisa expertly described the options for how well done the Filet could be cooked. My wife choose medium well and it was cooked exactly as she wanted. My son ordered the 16 oz Ribeye special, also with roasted potatoes and fresh mixed vegetables. I ordered the Vitello Sassi, pan roasted veal with sautéed mushrooms, artichoke hearts & garlic in a light brandy sauce with a side of linguini. All of these ingredients blended together perfectly. I am a big fan of artichoke hearts and in this case they were the best I had ever had. I would give them 6 or 7 stars if that was an option. For dessert my wife was stuffed and passed. My son & I both had the tiramisu and it was great. I want to highlight our server, Lisa. She had a great personality and talked to us for several minutes about non-food topics. She knew the menu very well and made great recommendations. She checked on us frequently so we were never waiting or wanting for anything. Finally, La Za Za is expensive, at least to my family. Plan on spending a Benjamin ($100) per person if you get a cocktail, appetizer, wine, entree, dessert and coffee. So La Za Za will be reserved for 2 or 3 special occasions per year. I’ll definitely look forward to them. In conclusion, I highly recommend La Za Za for a fabulous dining experience and without reservation give it 👍👍👍👍👍

I have to eat gluten free and not all places have gluten free fries. They were kind enough to make sure their fries are gluten free. They were perfect

Kathy Wheeland

Horrible experience. I made a reservation for 10, but showed up and they didn’t have it. Luckily it wasn’t busy so they seated us. Took a long time for someone to greet us and ask for drink order. Ordered our pizzas and they came out Luke warm, and 1 was supposed to be gluten free and it wasn’t. Took forever to get the correct pizza, finally arrived when we were ready to leave. We never were asked to refill our drinks. SO disappointed.

Andrea Huntzicker

I love it here! And their gluten (sensitive/free) pizza is amazing. I always have to double check it is because it seems like the regular dough! Also my husband is from Italy and he gives it his stamp of approval.

DiscoDaves Digginit

Hadn't been here for quite a while until I had lunch there the other day. Just as good as I remember! The guy who served was helpful and polite without being stiff or annoying. Very comfortable, pleasant, and straightforward. The pizzas are really good. Good dough, great sauce, flavorful cheese, and fresh ingredient. All around good value. I have not tried the Cauliflower Gluten-free Crust, nor the regular Gluten-free crust, but I have heard that they are very good.

Christopher Broek

We took my sister there for dinner in mid November 2024 and had a wonderful time. Every aspect of our visit was wonderful and they even had a good variety of gluten-free foods I could eat (I have celiacs and can’t eat wheat). I will be going back again.

Jamie Pitzen

I ordered a gluten free sandwich via GrubHub and I am so pleased with how amazing it was!!! I got the American sub and it was toasted with melted cheese and simply delicious. Glad I ordered two to meet the delivery minimum :)

Allison Krska

I am so excited!!! I saw that they advertised that they had Gluten free bread. I haven't eaten Subway in a long time due to Gluten allergy. I failed to grab the names of the two people who helped me, but they were both super understanding, changed their gloves, and such. I cannot give enough kudos to both of them. Having a food allergy you get a bit scared to go eat at places, but they did not make me feel bad at all for asking for special bread!! :)

Mo Patellio

Alter Brewing + Kitchen is a great lunch and dinner spot in St. Charles downtown, right off the river. Good food and excellent beers with great atmosphere all year around. This establishment is pristine, priced right, has friendly service and had plenty of vegan/gluten free options . All in all, a pleasant culinary experience you won’t want to miss. Kudos to executive chef Eric Klekamp. Check out the pictures associated with this review and follow on Insta @ifooditie

Superb anniversary party. Chef Joe catered to all our special needs. Some people no onions, some no gluten etc. EXCELLENT food. Each course a delight

Arrived saturday night 15 min early to a reservation of 2 and was sat right away. Server was great and attentive. We ordered the gluten free flat bread as an appetizer and it was great. Ordered the chicken and steak and it blew us away. The band started as we finished eating and it was very entertaining. We will be returning. Great date night.

I have dined at over 100 Thai places around the country, so this review is from someone that loves Thai food and have tried almost every dish on a Thai restaurant menu. We had cash delight chicken 9-10 Pad Thai 7-10 Pad khee mao 8-10 We ordered cashew chicken w gluten free sauce, it was very flavorful and the vegetables were cooked to the right firmness. The seating inside is small, 5 tables? It is decorated in a very modern, clean, and cute decor. Service was fantastic and the server was very friendly. For average and casual Thai food diner should love this place! You will love the cashew chicken, Pad Thai was like every other place, not bad but not amazing. Overall a great experience!
