Top 50 Gluten-Free Dinner Spots to Delight in Downtown Nashville

I had Rigatoni. It was delicious. The scenery is very pretty and formal. Service is very nice but it took us a while to get our food. Definitely not a quick bite. The truffle fries are delicious as well. Clearly label vegetarian, vegan and gluten free dishes.

Peyton Moore

Delicious and very good for gluten free peeps.

Annie Myers

THE BEST CORN TORTILLA I’VE HAD IN MY LIFE. Didn’t break or fall apart, delicious flavor. Got the jalapeño pineapple marg and the carne asada street tacos at the recommendation of our server, who was so accommodating with my gluten allergy.

Sophie Lennon

My boyfriend and I are both celiac. We went back three times on our week long trip to have the gluten free pizza and Cloud 9 wings. Nef is the best bartender and even showed us the ingredient list for the pizza dough incase it interfered with another allergy of mine

Patrick Conley

I ordered a full rack. I was disappointed in the sams club sides, no scratch items like greens. The ribs were good, nothing exceptional, slightly over cooked. Super risky for gluten free here. Lots of better bbq in town.

Had the most amazing lunch at the Omi Hotel! They had a dedicated fryer for gluten free buffalo wings, tots and fries and gluten free buns for the burgers as well!!

Lisa Prinzo

Our visit was wonderful! We were walking around and spotted etch (which I had read about online), so walked in and took a spot at the community table in the front of the restaurant. Josh provided excellent service, all while tending bar nearby. We shared the delicious Roasted Cauliflower as an appetizer, along with amazing gluten free rolls! I had the scallops and my husband had the filet. I had the pavlova for dessert, and my husband had pumpkin spice ice cream. All dishes were beautifully presented and SO delicious! The community table wound up being just us, which was awesome! We were on the early side. Thanks for helping us celebrate our 40th anniversary. It was a perfect experience!

Joyce Cheng

The best brunch buffet I’ve ever had!! Loved visiting Adele’s for my bachelorette. Had a couple of friends with dietary restrictions including celiac, and the staff were so happy to accommodate. Special shoutouts to Megan, the most incredible and friendly waitress ever, and the amazing chef Jerry! Would recommend to anyone visiting Nashville! 💕

Ryan Yousif

GLUTEN FREE FRIENDLY 🙂 Very tasty and filling. Good portions and prices. Staff was friendly. All the bowls are gluten free according to the staff.

Mishawn Greenfield

I love eating here on special occasions. I feel safe eating and know they are being careful

Daniel Batten

Incredible food. Helpful waitstaff. Pleasant, fun atmosphere. My girlfriend is gluten free and tries to limit dairy. It was easy to have a great GF meal, and their various sheep and goat milk/cheese dishes made it super easy to go low lactose, too. She’s very sensitive and says this is the best dinner she’s had in years. The portions were appropriate for the richness of the food, and we tried almost everything on the GF menu and both left satisfied (and pleasantly surprised by the bill). The pastel de chocolate was a delightful dessert, too.

Liz Abrams

Becky was our waitress and she was fantastic. Lots of gluten-free options and they were very careful about making sure we were safe to eat. Wonderful place to eat.

Warren Christensen

Our server, SHRAYA was absolutely fabulous and made us feel well taken care of and added to making the night very special. The Tuscan salad had way too much dressing on it, Bronzino was good And it was fabulous that you make that gluten-free,, pasta with cauliflower was very nice, The gluten-free donuts was spectacular. Thank you

Bethany Bordeaux

An invite from our friend @thetipjarnash took us to @sundanewasian for one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in Nashville. Its name is a nod to the Southeast Asian continental shelf underlying the region inspiring the myriad of flavors highlighted by the array of cuisine from founder @billydec and executive chef @mike_sunda From Dim Sum to sushi rolls, main courses and “new Asian creations,” there is truly something on the menu for everyone. As always, we’ve posted a guide to our “reel” menu below in case you want to say, “I want what they had” (and we’re pretty sure you will.) 🍹: Grass Tiger & Strawberry Fields 🍣: Signature Crispy Rice {Wagyu & Spicy Tuna} 🥗: Crispy Brussels Sprouts 🍱: Sweet Potato Caterpillar & Island Maki 🐟: Tom Yum Sea Bass 🥮: Bibingka* Also of note: Kevin our waiter was incredibly kind and knowledgeable - he elevated the entire dining experience and we’d definitely recommend requesting seating in his section. Also a huge thanks to Matt for his hospitality and attention. Thank you Sunda for a top-notch experience from food to service, start to finish. *Bibingka was an off-menu dessert item that you absolutely should ask for. If you happen to have a gluten sensitivity, bonus points that this cake is made with rice flour! In fact, many items on the menu are friendly to dairy, gluten and other allergies or sensitivities. Also of note, most of their cocktails can be served as mocktails without sacrificing any flavor so you can still drink decadently without imbibing!

Bridgette Larocque

has great gluten free options and they were super understanding about my celiac disease and ensured there was no cross contract.

Chasity McLaughlin

Our waitress was very nice. She was very helpful with gluten free options.

Eric Michaud

This place had great service and very good atmosphere. We were on the patio a group of 12. This is higher end and designed for sharing. The portion sizes were bigger than they said (tri tip easily feed 4 of us). You get what you pay for, it was high quality and great tasting food, and priced accordingly. Also has a great whiskey collection and one of the best gluten free menus.

Antoine Horness

This is the best Indian fusion food. Our server Jordan did an excellent job describing the menu and helping with dairy and gluten allergies. My braised pork shank was delicious. I put a fork in it and the meat literally came off the bone. The corn cuury sauce was so good. My wife had baramundi fish with kamchu cashew coconut based curry that was amazing. We shared the chocolate cake which had puffed quinoa and was scrumptious. This meal exceeded my expectations!! Maneet is one of my favorite TV chefs and I am so happy to get to eat there. Highest recommendation *****

Brooklynn Mangum

Paige was amazing! So sweet and knowledgeable about the gluten free items!

Shannon Farthing

Emmy Squared was amazing! We chose this restaurant bc of the gluten free crust option! This was the best pizza, you would never know it was gluten free. Hands down a win!

Chloe H

Great selection of gluten-free meals on the menu and servers were very knowledgeable and understanding of my allergy. Food was really yummy and the coffee was the best we had whilst visiting nashville. I will be back again next time I'm in Nashville without a doubt.

Alexi James

Jessica was the best server! We waited at the bar for a few minutes while our table was getting cleaned. Dinner was amazing, service was amazing, and we really enjoyed our dessert. Our server, Jessica, was sensitive to my husband’s gluten allergy. She let us know all the menu options that were available to him and all the ones that could be available to him with adjustments. We LOVED The Magi live music group!! We will definitely be back!

Dana Dombrowski

Been waiting a long time for Upbeet to open, and it was worth the wait. Best fast healthy in Nashville. The whole restaurant is gluten free and almost everything is organic. The quality of the ingredients is top notch but most of all, everything tastes incredible. Salads, warm bowls, smoothies and smoothies bowls.. so much to choose from. RUN don’t walk to Upbeet!

Emma Hill

Incredible food and incredible service! They have lots of gluten free options, even biscuits! Our server was so friendly and attentive. A must go for a delicious Nashville breakfast.

Blanca M Kalkach

<3 This is the best Mexican Restaurant in Tennessee. Everything tastes legit Mexican. Most things in the menu are gluten-free. Ambiance is good (dim lighting, not loud music). Perfect for a date night. Service was great! The chef is from Acapulco and came out of the kitchen to personally ask about our experience. Avocado salsa and all ingredients were fresh. LOVED IT! ~ GF

Moshe Sananes

The food was just ok, not great. Wait time and service are pretty long. Not really worth the wait. But they have gluten-free options, which we need.

Daniel Norris

This place was kind of a cluster. The good: My wife got the aztec bowl & that was pretty good. And the baked fries that came with my burger were really good. The bad: They served up a Cesar salad to our friend without any dressing, and had a hard time finding the dressing when asked for some. The Shitake Teriyaki burger was just a smear of mushroom, cabbage, and sauce on a bun and looked nothing like the picture on the menu. The ugly: They tried to convince me that a whole wheat bun was gluten free. It took a few minutes, but they eventually checked the packaging from the buns and re-made the burger on a small GF bagle. They didn't actually have any GF buns despite it being on the menu, and it sounded like their cook didn't know what GF meant. This could result in someone with ceilac getting really sick from their food. I expect better from a restaurant like this.

Adriene Essex Williams

A classic with delicious food and amazing staff. Love that they have gluten free pancakes!

Michael

I have Celiacs, so I got a classic burger with gluten free bun and side salad. I wanted tater tots, but when I asked if fries and tots have a dedicated fryer, the server informed me everything is fried in the same oil. So no tots for me. The sprite I ordered tasted disgusting. The syrup must have been running out. Server brought me a drink "from the back" it was much better. However when she brought another refill she must have forgot and I got the disgusting sprite again. Order was not correct. I watched the server put the order in correctly. Burger did not have cheese and salad had tomatoes. Specifically asked for cheese on my burger and no tomatoes in the salad. At least they got the gluten free bun correct. Manager was at the next table and he saw me not eating my food. I was waiting for our server. He asked if there was anything wrong. He gave me my meal for free and had my order redone. Burger was just ok. Service was mediocre. Server was fine but was more attentive to the bigger parties which I get. Server was knowledgeable about how food was prepared but was not very knowledgeable about what foods on the menu were gluten free. Luckily the food I did eat did not cause any issues. However, I will not be going back.

Steven Clark

Many good options. We found celiac friendly options. The atmosphere was similar to an Asian style Hawker market, but much less haggard.

Jill Swisher

I appreciate that they had plenty of gluten free options!

Lauren Klipp

Besides the food and margaritas being absolutely amazing, we were in awe of the amazing staff. Our server Jeff was beyond kind, explained the menu to us, helped us with gluten free and nut free options, and had fun with us! Overall experience was 10/10 and will absolutely be going back. If you have a 6+ people the shareable meal option was more than enough food and delicious.

Dino

Good place to eat with a typical menu for a Hard Rock. They had gluten-free options which was great. Prices are fair for a restaurant on Broadway. Shout out to Angi who was our hostess and was fantastic.

Margaret Johnson

Delicious. Excellent service. Wonderful gluten sensitive options!

Lisa Mayberry

Many gluten-free options as shared plates, entrée, and dessert. I had a wonderful birthday dinner here with the topper being the gluten-free cherry cheesecake.

Serena M

This restaurant has great variety. Our group had two vegans, a meat and potatoes guy, and someone avoiding gluten. We all had great options that were delicious! I would highly recommend the oat cakes!

Brynna Hower

Kiara E was our server and she was amazing! I’m gluten free (celiac) and when I mentioned this to Kiara, she told me she’s gluten free as well and gave me tons of recommendations and put my mind at ease when ordering. And the food was seriously perfect.

Rami Saleh

Hawaiian pizza has a very distinctive and wonderful flavour, characterised by softness and a gluten-free crust. In addition to the quiet place and wonderful service, you enjoy eating pizza in this warm atmosphere.

Krista Seifert

Great service and atmosphere. Best food I’ve had in a long time. Plus I am gluten free and they have many great options!

joanfraley

Great place to eat. Gluten-free is always a challenge but we found a few things on the menu to make it work.

Cheri Mann

Love the myriad of flavors in the Poke bowl. Party in your mouth! Friendly staff. Fun place. Especially good for gluten free peeps.

Ashlea was such an amzing server. Lovely personality. Food was great and the atmosphere was lovely. And their gluten free menu was very accommodating and gave many options.

Liv Oaxaca

Great for gluten free! Jesse was very helpful.

Kathleen Klukas

Authentic NY pizzeria atmosphere, excellent customer service! I got the gluten free cheese pizza and Greek salad. Highly recommend for lunch or dinner, take out or dine in!

Adam AIT BIHI

I was there with some friends this Saturday. Everyone had a different sandwich to be able to try different things from the menu. The Brie and fig was original and the brisket sandwich was really as well but for me the best was the pimento cheese with Mac n cheese sandwich, it’s definitely my favorite and the pimento cheese and the Mac combo match really well it’s a 10/10 for this melt. Overall great experience, the service was quick and their gluten free options allowed my friend who has celiac to eat with us. I also wan to mention that they have vegan and vegetarian options, a very complete menu.

Austin Ma

They say you should always follow the fat kid to find a good restaurant, and rest assured, according to my near-morbidly obese BMI index, this fatty sure has found a good place for y’all to enjoy I came here expecting a typical ramen bowl, however, due to my gluten intolerance i took the “Donburi” chinese rice bowl which had fried eggplants, dry-ginger-spiced pork belly, and amazing number of other flavors. Truly unlike anything I’ve ever had haha

Crystal

Gluten free pancakes!!!!!! Yummy Loved listening to Johny Cash while sitting in this cute diner

Paola Hegedus

DELISH!!!! This was probably one of the best smash burgers I’ve ever had (ordered without a bun bc I’m gluten free) AND I didn’t expect this but the chef made sure my order was cooked separately from anything with gluten!!! So sweet of them! Eat here!!

Amy Bolan

Impossible Burger and gluten free buns available. Waffle fries regular and sweet potato are very good.
