Annelise Holyoak

We love this place. Great gluten free options. Favorites are the seabass, corn, Mary’s chicken, pesto burrata. We go all the time!

I have celiac and found this restaurant on the “Find me Gluten Free” app. I was on vacation and the restaurant had good reviews. Don’t trust their gluten free menu-i got a pizza that was listed on the menu as GF. I got VERY SICK after eating there. I am certain that it was not GF. My guess is the waitress didn’t specify GF when sending the ticket to the kitchen. The food was delicious, but be careful.

Blaze Pizza in Glendale is one of my favorite places to grab a quick, delicious, and fully customizable pizza. The build-your-own option is perfect for creating exactly what you’re craving. I always go for the cauliflower crust—it’s light, crispy, and a great gluten-free option. The variety of fresh toppings is impressive, from classic cheeses and veggies to unique options like roasted garlic and arugula. The pizzas are cooked to perfection in just a few minutes, thanks to their super-hot oven. The staff is friendly and efficient, and the restaurant is clean with plenty of seating. Whether dining in or taking it to go, Blaze Pizza is a reliable choice for tasty, personalized pizza at a great price. Highly recommend!

Wonderful, wonderful restaurant with some of the best Indian food I’ve ever had. The food is always fresh and flavorful. I eat here often (even though I live in Highland Park) because it makes me so happy. The staff is very friendly and amenable to requests (gluten-free papadam instead of naan, for example). A friend of mine and I eat here every time she visits because it’s a favorite of hers, as well. Highly recommend!

They somehow make a gluten free pizza that’s even better than their normal pizza! My go to place.

Kim Eason

This place is amazing. The chicken tacos were very tasty. I was attending GrowthDay Live at the Alex Theater and this is conveniently located nearby. It's also close to the Brand Plaza Hotel. The service was excellent. Very friendly and even remembered my order when I went in a 2nd time (I mentioned the tacos were tasty, didn't I?). I have to eat gluten free. There are several gluten free options (including the chicken tacos). The price was also extremely reasonable. I highly recommend stopping by and eating some tacos (or anything else on the menu).

We recently dined here, and it was a wonderful evening. We ordered a gluten-free pizza, a vegetarian pizza, and finished with a delicious tiramisu. Each dish had that authentic Italian flavor—perfectly prepared! What made it even more special was the owner—super friendly and warm. We felt incredibly welcome, and the entire team went above and beyond to make it a great evening. Highly recommended for anyone who loves Italian food and appreciates excellent service.

Wish I was able to eat here. I can make the pancakes, gluten-free or vegan, but not both. I have a severe dairy allergy and celiac disease. I was super excited to try out this restaurant.

Scott Peterman

I have prolly been here 100 times. Best breakfast sando in LA and their gluten free option is 🔥🔥🔥

Brandon Lippincott

First experience here was incredible! The food was delicious and service was very friendly and helpful. They also have Gluten-free options too.

Best gluten free pizza I've ever had. Fresh ingredients, and great service and staff. Thank you!

Liz O

First timers! Absolutely LOVED the customer service. Great staff, super friendly, approachable and even hooked it up with a sampler of their cookies and cream custard which was bomb. The food was great as well. We ordered the chicken sandwiches. One on a gluten free bun (not grainy/dry like at other places) and one in a regular bun. 20/10. It's been a while since we had great food and customer service like that.

Randy Roberts

Enjoyed Chicken Pesto wrap. Tons of options including Pasta Pizza w Gluten free available. Also Soup Salad and Entrees

Megan Buchanan

We recently moved to Glendale and Amici quickly became our favourite restaurant! It’s the best experience I’ve had dining and Omar our waiter made the experience so memorable, we’ve never had such personable service, he’s one of a kind. We love the food and having celiac disease I was surprised at how many gluten free options there were available for me. I’d highly recommend the restaurant to anyone in the LA area. 10/10

Miguel Chion

Nice surprise. This is an elegant, and welcoming environment. Modern decor with an air of lounge vibes. This restaurant has many options to different nutritional preferences. It has several dishes that are vegan and gluten free. We order the fresh roll, Kari Seafood and Sticky rice with mango. Everything has really great flavor. You can taste the freshness of ingredients and species. The sticky rice and mango was already my favorite desert but this restaurant really presented the most delicious one I have ever tried. Fresh roll were fresh, balanced and delicious. The Kari Seafood had great mild curry flavor, not the most impressive presentation, but still great flavor. I highly recommend this restaurant. I will definitely will come back!

Michael Albers

Totally random stop here on my way from Ventura to Boyle Heights during Friday rush hour. So glad I stopped. Immediately upon walking in the door the owners treated me like a long lost friend. It’s a small joint, maybe six tables, in a strip mall and was swamped with takeout orders. The service was fast and the food absolutely perfect. Well spiced, gorgeous vegetables and so good I couldn’t stop eating. Super accommodating of vegan and gluten free options. Will make this a stop on my commute. PS- buy the hot sauce in the soda cooler. It is maybe the best hot sauce on earth.

Serena Kim

Excellent service and excellent quality of foods! I had Kalbitang (beef bone soup with glass noodle) and tojong soondae. Both were gluten free dairy free. I am super symptomatic celiac and allergic to gluten and I felt good after eating. Side dishes are not gluten free Kimchi, radish kimchi nothing is gluten free so don’t touch them. I have two kids and the server quickly brought a high chair, extra soup bowls and plastic spoons and forks for them. He also brought scissors and tongs for me to cut the foods for them.

Ian White

Legitimately the best pizza I've had in ages. It's dangerous having this place within walking distance. Quality toppings and ingredients. One of the best thick crusts I've ever had. They also have lots of vegan, halal and gluten free options. Try the calzone, it's bigger than your head!

Scott K

Bread was so good, I'd eat it with a gluten allergy. Which I don't have. I'm allergic to Benadryl. It's ironic but that's life. Tried the brisket sandwich... Even though I couldn't finish the whole thing there, it was still great as a left over. The sides were good too. A little disappointed on the salad but it's not a surprise. Twice baked potato was done well. The other details were definitely worth it. Glad I got introduced to somewhere I will enjoy to return.

Michelle C

One of the best places to eat in Montrose, La Canada and La Crescenta. The only place in Los Angeles for quality kebob AND they have vegan, as well as gluten-free options. Owner and staff are fantastic. If there's ever an issue, talk to the owner (he's usually there) and he will make it right, but I've NEVER had a problem. Even through the pandemic, where other restaurants have upped prices and lowered the quality of food used in the struggle to stay afloat, Kebab Daddy has, thankfully, NEVER compromised on the high quality meat and ingredients used, even when times were tough. Thought I'd post a review since my boss is gonna go there now to order 3 lunches. YUM!!!

Dillon Morrison

I had the gluten free pizza dough and it was great 👌

Elias Baaklini

Great options! I had a mushroom burger with gluten free bun and a side soup instead of fries. It was really good. Staffs are very friendly too. The only drawback is the long wait. However, the center shops nearby are nice to pass some time.

Sabrina B

A coworker of mine recommended this place and worth it. Tucked in a busy corner of Glendale, this marvelous place is best place for Pho. I ordered the chicken pho with vegetables which I highly recommend is the best ever. The broth is flavorful even without the side condiments.However, do try the chicken wings with sweet and sour sauce! Please note if you have a gluten allergies, the staff is very accommodating with your dietary needs.

I absolutely love the hospitality.. especially how they were with my son who is gluten and dairy-free.. Talin went out of her way to get to know my boy which was so sweet of her... The food was really tasty. We're definitely going to come back soon 🫶☕

Rob A

This is an absolutely wonderful restaurant. It is family run and the family is super friendly and can accommodate persons with diet restrictions such as gluten free, vegan, etc. The meals are very much homemade, generous portions and just taste wonderful.

Very nice staff, totally accommodated our gluten allergy, and food was good.

Speed Trap

Delicious generous portions. A cut above your standard sandwich and salad. Had gluten free bread which was delicious in the Not So Fried Chicken Sandwich. I was helped by someone (I think he was the manager) and had lovely service from him. The rest of the staff seemed a little too flustered to be pleasant but I believe this is a new location so understandable. Food was tastier than I could make at home and after I felt energized and alert (no meal hangover), the menu had lots options to fit my dietary preferences, I definitely will be back!

Mano and Patrick at Tender Greens are the dynamic duo you never knew you needed! These guys redefine "proper attire" with their style game on point. Their suggestions, especially on seasonal items, are like culinary gold mines. When I threw them a curveball with my gluten allergy, they handled it like pros, dropping knowledge about ingredients faster than you can say "quinoa." The way they orchestrated a glove change was a symphony of professionalism – gentle yet firm. And let's talk about how every worker orbits around them like they're the restaurant rockstars. Move over, celebrity chefs – Mano and Patrick are the real MVPs!

Rebecca Stuart

A lovely cafe with delicious ice cream and friendly staff members who patiently dispense samples even when there is a line- they want to take the time to make sure you’re getting something you’ll enjoy. They offer traditional, gluten free, and vegan options with a wide variety of flavors. I also really enjoy their chai lattes.

Jacqueline Garcia

The wait was long but,Great gluten free Pizookie. Very satisfied with the service. Haven't been here in 4 yrs. Definitely will be returning.

CA Fish Grill continues to be a good fast casual option in the area. Seafood choices are pleasantly good also which includes Keto and Gluten free examples. Portion sizes seem to have gotten smaller since I previously reviewed them, but the pricing hasn't gone up too much. For under $20 you can get a good meal with a soft drink. Bottled wine is still available. The biggest change in recent times is their kiosk system which makes you feel that they really don't want any human interaction. A large touchscreen is available for your human-less ordering process ... and don't mind that they will ask for a "gratuity" before you check out with your credit card. I really don't know what would happen if you prefer to pay with cold cash. Maybe they'll just treat you back with the same human-less look.

Quick and friendly greeters very helpful in keeping my food gluten free. The view is great and it made it so fun .

Carrie Strucke

Food is sooooo good! Love the gluten free options!!

Leo Ghazalian

The revamp of this coffee shop could not get any better!!! ambiance food service is top notch...love going here for their sandwiches and their new pizzas that are also on a gluten free bread!! staff is friendly high recommend making this your regular stop!!

R Q

Considering where it's located it's pretty good. I enjoyed my seafood pho. It was missing the mussels but they were generous with the squid so it made up for it. The only downside was that it came with a few shreds of fried onions and since I'm gluten free I had to pick each one out. The beef ramen looked good and my buddy said he enjoyed his.

Rae A

Really great gluten-free muffins! Their lattes are delicious too (wish they were offered in larger sizes)! Management is very professional and pleasant - the staff could be nicer. Overall i would recommend this place but i wish it was opened earlier. 8 am is too late!! Super cute setting. I love the marshmallows they offer and other little treats!

Michael Mast

Fantastic! The helped us to make rolls gluten free and swapped blue crab in for a slight up charge from imitation. The rice is superb!!

Mat F

The food and drink selection is really great for a counter serve restaurant. The quality is good and consistent, and the prices are pretty good, although a little on the high side for lunch. There are plenty of options for gluten-free people, although the restaurant is not gluten-free. I’m leaving off a star because the service is really inconsistent; although very polite, it’s frequently slow, and wait times for food can exceed 10mins. The seating is always clean, and there are usually good sports to watch on the many TV’s.

Catrina “MissThing” Godfrey

We tried this place out for the first time tonight, WE ALL LOVED IT! We intended to try the cracker crust but forgot to mention it, we got sent home with a lovely sample . It was fanatic, will definitely be going back. The wings are baked too and yummy! Ohhh and they have gluten free options too!

Luke Spinelli

can you make without wheat and because I had celiac disease

Kaye P

I keep saying I'm going to try other things on the menu, but their street tacos are delicious. I generally order the al pastor and the carne asada on corn tortillas. If you are gluten free, like me, the options are a little limited, mostly the street tacos (order on corn) and the rice bowls. For the non-gluten free: I'm told the fish tacos are delicious as are the beer battered carne asada fries. Plus the fries are easily an entire meal. But no fries for the celiac, the oil is used to fry things gluten-full..
