Top 50 Gluten-Free Places Across Ohio for a Memorable Dinner Experience

Rebecca Duke

Absolutely fell in love with this place!! We were traveling and looking for a safe place to eat with celiac/severe gluten allergy as well as dairy free. The fact that Portia’s entire menu is gluten free and vegan was AMAZING so everything was completely safe!! We drank the mushroom lattes and split the breakfast burrito bowl and a waffle - the food was out of this world. Everyone on staff was so kind and in a great mood, and the space is cozy and colorful. Will definitely back if we find ourselves in Columbus again!

Gluten free haven! Delicious comfort food. It is so hard to find fried gluten free food at other places because of cross contamination in the fryer, but here everything is safe for celiac! The empanadas and apple fritters were amazing!

Rachel Baker

Everything is gluten-free, and the food was delicious! Will be back!

I can't have gluten or dairy anymore and it was a big change, haven't eaten much because I'm picky and have lost so much weight. I decided to try this place and it was phenomenal! I didn't even know this kind of food could taste this good!! I was actually able to feel satisfied after eating which doesn't happen anymore. I cried, I literally cried in the middle of eating! Thanks for the delicious food and for caring about people who have to deal with this!!

We dined here with a party of 7 following a white coat ceremony. The service was great, even though the restaurant was packed. A member of our party has significant food allergies and the waitress was knowledgeable and accommodating. She asked questions of the chef to ensure our party’s allergies were addressed. The restaurant offers a gluten free menu. Our food was excellent. Our party enjoyed dishes including Mahi Mahi, scallops, Grouper, short ribs, filet mignon, and burgers. The sides were on point and paired perfectly with the main course. We have been here before and will definitely return! Thank you to the staff, chefs and all employees at Cooper’s Hawk Restaurant, The Strand, Columbus, Ohio!

Wow the food tasted as good as it looked! Everything is vegan and gluten free but it doesn't taste like it is! We ordered the cheese plate which had so much variety and different flavors! Everything was so fresh, beautifully presented, and filling! We left with full stomachs. My favorite was the chocolate chip cookies. It was gooey but didn't leave me feeling icky like most sweets!

Andrea L

Excellent burgers! Great option for celiacs, staff is very knowledgeable. Gluten eating dad says if all GF was that good he would never eat gluten again 🤣

Jen

Went out with my team for a business dinner and had amazing experience! Hats off to our server Dominic, he's was beyond professional while being knowledgeable about allergy restrictions. He was well informed about cross contamination and offered my colleague different gluten free options. So refreshing! Next time I am in Columbus, I will be booking a reservation 🩷

Stacey Preston

Great food and a good sized gluten free menu.

Brian Kellett

We have been dining at Comune since they opened & have always had a wonderful experience. Lots of gluten free options, stellar service & owners!

Ash Holbert

They are amazing with allergies. They have great gluten free pizza and a tone of options. The gluten free cookie and Sunday is amazing!

Josiah Farr

I was in Columbus for a MTG tournament, and was unfamiliar with the area. I searched for gluten free food, not expecting to find much, but I found Forno. Not only was Molly the waitress absolutely phenomenal. (And she definitely deserves a raise) My experience there was beyond amazing. I've never had a pizza so delicious, I've never had FOOD so delicious. Let alone, a GLUTEN FREE pizza! I liked Forno so much that during my weekend in Columbus I HAD to go there a second time because I wanted to experience it again before I left. 10/10 would go there again, I'd drive from Detroit to Columbus just to experience Forno again.

John Morgan Gumm

First time here. It was highly rated on my wife’s gluten-free app. Amazing service, amazing food, amazing atmosphere.

Carrie Crutcher

Went for a family dinner this past Saturday. Service was great. We made reservations and we were sat immediately even tho it was packed. Our waitress was awesome. I have Celiac disease and felt totally comfortable and safe eating there and having to be gluten free. I want to give 5 stars instead of 4 but I just can’t because of the food. It really just wasn’t very good. I got a vegetable and rice dish with chicken that was lacking flavor majorly. Our appetizer was the “spicy” pimento dip that was hard and not spicy. It just didn’t fair well. My mom got shrimp pasta and said it was underwhelming. Daughter got chicken fingers and said the same thing . I’m going to go back and try again, maybe it’ll be better next time. I really want to like it since the rest of the experience was so good.

Really good food great gluten free menu. Service was good.

Eric S

Sort of happened across this place by chance when looking for a lunch spot, and really glad we did! I got a pickle pizza (didn't see it on the menu, but just ask about it), and it was really good! They also are gluten friendly, which was great for my wife. You can tell the owner was passionate about what he was doing! Wish we had a spot like this back home!

Briana Gamble

I want to love Town Hall, as someone who has food allergies (gluten, dairy, & soy), but the last 2 times my order was made wrong. Both times they contained one of my allergies - the first time a burger came with cheese and the second time I was given the keto bun instead of the gluten free bun which contains dairy. The first time it was refunded since I was already home. The second time I was close by when I realized and they made it again. Food allergies are nothing to mess with though and to advertise as accommodating but consistently make food wrong is very frustrating. There’s clearly a lack of knowledge from staff or protocols are lacking.

Veronica XXX

Love the gluten-free pizza.

Tini Mueller

One of the best gluten free places I have ever been. The wait staff is so knowledgeable when it comes to gluten free, the menu is so inclusive. I love it here so much! OH and the GLUTEN FREE chicken tenders… so good!!

Isaac Meats

I have only had good experiences at Figlio! I am gluten free (sensitive) and have not had any issues. The workers are very nice and knowledgeable!

Bobbie Hughes

I was drawn by the gluten free menu. The coconut chicken was amazing. Very crispy and the coconut sauce is sweet. The egg drop soup was also delicious. I will be back to try the GF sweet and sour chicken. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable.

Paul Hansen

Probably the best gluten-free pizza I’ve had in Columbus

Julie Burkett

Great service! Great food! Appreciate the menu marking gluten-free items. Best of all, the cheesecake is gluten-free!!!

Doug King

Went here to have dinner with friends from college. There's a lot of gluten free options across the entire menu. All the entrees were nicely prepared and plated. Our server was attentive, with well paced service.

Esperanza Hunt

Joe was my server and he was awesome! It’s always been hard eating out while having celiac and he took my allergy into heavy consideration

Rochelle Stapp

I was so excited to try Mediterranean food and was super lucky to find they had gluten free options. The owner’s son has gluten intolerance so they are very knowledgeable. The food was so good and the staff was absolutely lovely.

SoniaLeighOfficial

My partner and I travel a lot for work. We always seek out the best vegan spots to eat. This one really blew me away. I was extremely satisfied with the customer service, the atmosphere, and the food. Wyatt took our order. He had an excellent attitude despite the line (probably because the place is delicious) and he was very helpful in helping us select a dish. I had the Frisco melt and the red velvet cake. I ate every bite! They do not skip on flavor and quality ingredients. My partner had sausage egg and cheese with gluten free bread the pumpkin loaf and Caesar salad. Usually gluten free options are scarce and hit or miss on flavor. All of these dishes were delicious. And there were plenty of gluten free options as well. Thank you for providing excellent service and food for us vegan travelers! We Highly recommend this place!

Rochelle Stapp

My favorite Chinese restaurant. They will make just about any dish gluten free and are so amazing. My favorite to get is orange chicken but they also have a Chinese Menu that has more dishes to try then just the traditional American dishes.

Heather Iacono

Absolutely fabulous authentic Mexican food, dedicated gluten free. AAAAA+++++

Hillary Nelson

10/10 recommend. As mentioned everything except the buns and some beer is gluten free but even better they take cross contact super seriously and keep those items separate from all others. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful and really reassured me. My only problem was I only went once while visiting. Can’t recommend enough! Felt safe as a celiac eating here and most of my party had no idea it was all GF.

curtis sanders

It was like a scene from a television show one kid doing homework and another playing on a tablet while the mother worked . The pizza was reasonable priced and had a good gluten free pizza

Johnathan Crihfield

Not a lot of places for someone who has a baby for a stomach with IBS, Gluten intolerance, and Dairy allergy, yet I can come here and get a medium pizza for less than 20 bucks with everything I can actually have, and it not only look like a freaking normal pizza for once (fantastic mind you) and it was freaking perfect. I will be coming here on the most absolute regular now.

Bruce Griffin

Delicious. Great food and better service. Very gentrified hipster vibe. The majority of the menu is or can be made gluten free.

Dustin Greiner

Fantastic gluten free food, everything on the menu is gluten free or can be including the mac and cheese and onion rings. Service was excellent.

Liz Love

Had a fantastic experience here as a gluten intolerant person for their tasting menu. I do wish they would have been more accommodating to my friend who was with me that is keto. They would not offer her low carb replacements and made her burger be delivered with the bun, no exceptions. I do think I would have preferred the regular menu and will probably go back to try that.

Sandra Tingler-Shaw

My sis is gluten-free, and for the first time in a long time, she was able to select things she normally would not be able to select. Plus the food was great! We will definitely visit Erie Street Kitchen again!

Cory Chapman

A wonderful restaurant with amazing gluten free options. My wife enjoyed her first chicken Parmesan in years here. Very inviting and lovely atmosphere. The lasagna was delicious and the service was prompt. If you don’t want to sit at the bar, make sure to call ahead.

Grant Donnelly

6-1-Pho is the restaurant I most regularly frequent in Columbus. I like it a lot and the prices are good, the food is even better and the workers are always friendly. What I like about this place is the food can satisfy a meat eater, a vegan, or a gluten free person all the same. I generally get the marinated tofu pho and my partner the chicken pho- both are great and I think their broth is perfect. They started using flatter noodles which are less good than the more round noodles they used to use so I hope they switch back! I get to go and they have this down to a science- they have a good packing system that makes sure you don’t spill and the food tastes good when you get it home.

I would give 1000 stars if I could. I have a gluten and dairy intolerance and our server, Tyler, made sure I was eating GOOD. He got the kitchen to make gf/df bread specially for me, and was super accommodating explaining the menu items in depth and offering suggestions. He even brought me a plate of steamed veggies with my chicken & pasta. I ended up getting the pasta-your-way with gf gnocchi and grilled chicken, and he brought me a side of steamed veggies. He was accommodating, friendly, and on top of everyones table around us with the same level of service. Did I mention this was Valentine's day, one of their busiest days? This is going to become a regular restaurant for me, thank you Marcella's and thank you Tyler!!

Alice Schafrath

Great food, great service. And they have gluten free items.

Geoff G

We have wanted to try this place a long time and it does not disappoint! Our waiter was super kind and confidently helped us order with recommendations as needed. Loved the lighting indoors and the outside eating area looked very cozy! (Can't say what their pet policy might be.) The food was stellar from start to finish. The chicken potato carrot soup was simple and refreshing like homemade from Baba. (I'm Macedonian not Italian lol.) Appetizer of fresh mozzarella and tomatoes covered in balsamic was fresh and a good portion for two. Gluten sensitive options that aren't a joke like some other places! She had the gluten free penne with Alfredo. I had the halibut with red sauce and kalamata olives. It was to die for. And a huge portion! We had the pistachio ricotta cake and the chocolate mousse for desert with espresso which was a lovely end to a perfect date night. Thank you so much, Giuseppe's! Look forward to coming again soon.

Dallas Tucker

My daughter and I waited 45 minutes for a very small meal. I got the gluten free French toast and home fries which weren’t very good at all. She finished her reg French toast and sausage though. The server was nice and apologetic. I was searching for a new spot with gluten free items but I don’t think this is it.

Olivia Evert

Always just kind folks and are always helpful when it comes to my food allergies. I can't have dairy or gluten and I get the Chicken Daal with no dairy and they always make it perfect and safe each time

Gabe O.

Very good traditional American diner. The food was delicious and their service is great. They have a gluten free menu available on request.

Jean Ann

The kale and quinoa salad is delicious and the gluten free crust margherita pizza is exceptional.

Hadear Marzooque

Great ambiance; love the candles. I was very impressed with the food quality and taste for celiac dietary restrictions. The in-house gluten free pasta was amazing. Everything was perfectly tasty, professional, classy and memorable

Lilli Thompson

KENDELL IS AMAZING she was so accommodating with my celiacs and went above and beyond to make sure I was secure about all options! She was so amazing. The food is so good too! Caso is top dog

Joseph Coppus

Great food, chill atmosphere, and lots of great gluten free options!

Brian Cataldi

How the mighty have fallen. They ruined our Mother’s Day dinner by serving a clearly medium rare burger when my wife wanted a medium. We sent it back but not before the waiter comes back with the food and tell us “this is our medium here”…the middle was cool in the! We thought it would be 5-10 minutes max for the new burger . 30 minutes later and with everyone else done with their dinner the burger still isn’t out! They offer to comp the meal and give us a free gluten free dessert… however when the food still isn’t out I talk to the owner and tell her the situation. She goes back and then a manager comes over saying they are still working on it and gives me the bill. I tell the manager I’m not paying for anything as this literally ruined our dinner. She goes away, comes back with the food bagged up and says “Here is your food, you can go now”. Both the waiter and the manager were rude during this entire encounter. THEN to top it off, on the way home we get a text from them saying the desserts they sent home were NOT gluten free…and my wife is celiac and the one that all this happened it!! And the last straw was when we got home, check out the burger…the damn thing was still medium rare!!! Check the picture for the 2nd burger and you tell me. After all this they didn’t even fix it. Long story short, they could have made it ok but the long remake, the attitude all around and the continuing mistakes show me this place has lost their touch.
