Top 20 Gluten-Free Dinner Spots to Delight in Ghent and Norfolk

Amethyst Smith

They were stellar from the moment we walked in. They had my mind at ease immediately assuring me they don’t even bring gluten into the building. The food was amazing it felt like a 5 star dining experience. The whole menu being gluten free and without worries of cross contamination it was a fantastic experience with food and service. I will be returning for all of my events worth celebrating. Not to mention a full side menu of mocktails 😊

Our waiter was incredibly friendly and went out of his way to accommodate my wife's dietary restrictions due to celiac disease. He provided a gluten-free menu and ensured that the kitchen was aware of her needs. He made excellent wine recommendations and checked in on us throughout the meal to ensure we were enjoying our experience. As for the food, we were blown away by how delicious and beautifully presented each dish was. The shishito peppers were perfectly cooked and had just the right amount of salt to complement their savory flavor. The calamari was tender and flavorful. The mussels were plump and juicy, and the broth was rich and flavorful. The scallop ceviche was a standout dish, with fresh, bright flavors and delicate textures. For dessert, we couldn't resist trying the creme de catalan, which was a perfect ending to the meal. We paired it with a scoop of almond and floral ice cream, which was rich and creamy, and a glass of sherry that added a lovely depth of flavor. Despite the restaurant being a bit noisy, it didn't detract from our overall enjoyment of the meal. The restaurant's cozy and intimate atmosphere made for a memorable dining experience, and we look forward to returning. Highly recommend!

10/10, this is one of my favorite restaurants to go to, I have Celiac so finding gluten free options are hard but they even have a gluten free menu with plenty of delicious options! I've had 2 different burgers and pizza as well as their lava cake and all were absolutely divine.

It has been a while since we visited Taste. Historically have had good service but today even though we clearly stated gluten free due to allergy there was a croton in my wife salad and she got cross contaminated. I took the salad to the staff and they offered to make it again. The second salad had other items not Gluten-free. Very disappointed as they used to have dedicated station for making Gluten-free orders.

Really enjoyed the cool decor and the classy vibe of this place. The food was amazing -- I got the chicken salad sandwich on gluten free bread, and it was delicious. The bread was so good, especially for gluten free! Ordered a coconut macaroon as well, and it was perfect. Wonderful service!

The food is delicious and they have good gluten free options. I appreciate the cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. Their portions are large; come hungry!

Rachel Schardt

Omg best ever! They were constantly changing gloves. I got the chicken shawarma bowl and was so happy that I had gluten-free options. The fries were amazing and the Turkish coffee was spot on!

Very good vegan selection including mayonnaise with its own menu, and both the vegan shrimp and lobster are gluten free. They have tamari (gluten free soy sauce), and the wasabi is real (very spicy!) and gluten free. Other vegan options include a tofu steak and even ramen. Please note the miso soup and starter salad are NOT gluten-free. Very good service and the staff are knowledgeable about ingredients. They have a nice sushi bar with trained sushi chefs and optional traditional seating, though I wouldn't recommend it for anyone taller than 6'2". Would love to come here again.

Their vegetable paitan with rice noodles instead of traditional ramen noodles is a delicious gluten free ( gf ) option.

Joseph Snodgrass

A great find. The pizzas are perfect. In fact the gluten free one my friend let me taste was practically indistinguishable from the regular pizza I had. Prices were very reasonable. Staff were very friendly. My go to in Norfolk.

The food was amazing and the service was superior. Dawn did an amazing job serving the guests. She is hilarious and makes fabulous recommendations. I didn't catch the bartender name but he was very funny and made excellent drinks. This place would make a great date night or hang out with friends. The menu is delicious and fun and has something for everyone. Vegan and gluten friendly items.

Solo date at Press 626 Wine Bar. Hidden gem in Norfolk Downtown. Craft cocktails and amazing food. Fresh “Non-alcoholic Cucumber Mint Fresh Squeezed Spritzer”, “Australian Lamb Chops” were absolutely delicious and cooked perfectly, gluten free and the miso tahini hummus with mint chimichurri that came with it was so tasty and of course I had to try their vegan “Mezze Cheese Board”, as a cheese lover is mandatory! Press 626 was amazing, great atmosphere, outstanding costumer service, my bartender Betti was super nice and welcoming. This place is very casual for a fancy place. Definitely recommend if you pass through Norfolk, I personally loved it.

Ordered pad Thai with chicken breast (meat cost extra). Pad Thai was missing chicken, had a yellowed dehydrated lime wedge next to it, and doesn't seem traditional. Seems Americanized and very few gluten-free, dairy free options. 3.5/10, not impressed

Charley Martin

Delicious food and great service! The guys here are awesome - so friendly and genuine. I've yet to encounter any of them in a bad mood much less providing anything other than great service! If you have celiac disease it is safe to eat here! If you ask for a lettuce bun they always ask if you have an allergy and if so they take precautions to ensure no cross contamination. You can also eat the french fries!!! Love this place!!

Tammy Treichel

The staff was very knowledgeable about my gluten allergy and were most helpful with ordering. The table service was excellent. A great experience. 10/10 recommended
