Plenty of Gluten-free pasta options. We split the Carbonara, it was outstanding. We couldn't finish it all. Our server was also amazing, and it was only her first night! Great date night location. Try the GF Root Beer, too!!

We went to this place after reading good reviews and seeing that they had gluten free options on the menu. We ordered the gluten free option for sandiwches and one of us got the wrong bread luckly we caught it. They the took the whole plate and returned with a new sandwich no fries and when we asked they returned with the fries from the plate that had the gluten bread and they were cold at that point and possibly contaminated. The place was clean but loud and the condinents were not stocked (no sugar) and we had to stir our coffees with a knife one of us had a side of apple sauce so we had to ask for one. What they brought out was almost a serving spoon. The service was lacking and the sandwiches were not what I would call restaurant quality. Frankly we didnt really feel allergy safe eating here.

We weren’t sure if we should visit Tello based on some conflicting reviews, but we are so glad we tried it! The food was great and the wait staff was very knowledgeable about gluten free items for me. My husband had the lasagna and the tiramisu. The tiramisu was huge! I had - glass of red wine, the gluten free bolognese, and raspberry & white chocolate gelato. All amazing. We will come back frequently!

Best breakfast and dining experience I've had in a while. The food runner was funny and helpful. I was there with my two sons and we all had an excellent breakfast. I especially loved the gluten-free zucchini bread waffle. Delicious! My son loved the giant cinnamon roll and shared with us all. Excellent dining experience.

Hats off to Culver's for their attention to detail. Two members of our party have good sensitivities/allergies and their food was delivered on separate red trays with no other food. The gluten free buns come steamed in a bag to avoid cross contamination.

A casual place, with AMAZING, delicious pizzas. The crust is very thin and crispy, the way I like it. We got 3 gluten free ones: Hawaiian, Greek (loaded with yummy stuff!) and Arezo with anchovies! Also a regular crust spinach and feta. All delicious! Thank you, Venezia Pizza!!!

Very unique ice cream flavors. They have ice cream from a few local vendors and they make their own vegan and gluten free ice cream! Their vegan gf peanut butter cookie is the star of the show! The staff is very friendly. This is a MUST go if you are in SOHA.

The hostess was not exactly friendly when we put our name in for a table (we're a party of six and were fine with a wait as we're used to it... We were told pretty rudely that we would have to wait 90 minutes "if we really wanted to put in our name." It ended up being about 30), but our server was nice, and overall experience was positive. The food is typical American diner/ casual dining kind of food, but it was good and the atmosphere is casual, family- friendly, and there are lots of options on the regular menu. The prices are also really reasonable, especially kids' meals. My kids enjoyed the onion rings, which are served on a fun stacked tray. I have Celiac disease and was thankful they had a gluten free menu. It's very limited, but I was able to get a burger with as gluten free bun and a baked potato. I think the other gf options were things like salads. It always surprises me when restaurants that have gluten free buns and sandwiches on their menus don't offer to substitute the bread for a gf bun. Maybe it's too hard to prevent cross contamination. That said, we left full and had a pretty good, casual meal.

Been a couple of times and it's hard as someone who can't have gluten. The carbs and cheese without beer cheese was decent, the arugula salad was tasty. There are a lot more salads I can try. The burgers smell good. The people I've gone with have enjoyed them.

A lovely coffee shop with fun flavors to try in your lattes. They have muffins and pastries available. Also packaged gluten free cookies. Though this place is not geared towards kids, the customer service is wonderful and they are never concerned with the crumbs my toddler always leaves behind. It has a hometown Cafe vibe so that you never feel uncomfortable here. They do not have decaf coffee or great tea selections though. Which is a bummer.

I visited Dave's Place in South Haven and had an incredible experience with their gluten-free pancakes. As someone with celiac disease, I was thrilled that my body had zero reaction to their pancakes. The small size of the restaurant means you might wait a bit, but trust me, it's worth every minute. Their attention to dietary needs is commendable, and the pancakes were not just safe but also incredibly tasty. Highly recommend for anyone with gluten sensitivities looking for a quality meal. Five stars for Dave's Place!

My husband and I visited during a slow night in the winter. The staff was welcoming to us and the service was great. My husband said his burger was the best one he has had in a while, and that’s saying something! The waiter asked if he wanted his burger to have any pink in the middle. No one ever asks that and my husband happily said yes. I had the ratatouille. Never had it at other restaurants but it was great! A lot of garlic but the waiter warned me about it and I moved the garlic cloves to the side. The waiter was great with knowing the gluten free options for me. We will come back in the summer and try all of their fun cocktails and sit outside!
