Easy gluten free ordering with care taken to preserve allergy integrity.

Vicky DeGroote

Gluten free vegan pizza was pretty good!

Jonathan Murray

My family loves this pizza. Especially the buffet! My wife is Celiac and they are able to accommodate her gluten free diet. She loves their gluten free pizzas and the spinach dip.

Briana “GHC” Q

I can't gluten or dairy and this place made accomodations that didn't make me sick ✨ the food was delicious and service was attentive

Anna Claire Jones

Always a great pizza option, and the service is excellent! They go out of their way to make sure we are cared for. Great for gluten free and dairy free (not celiac safe, though).

Robert Tickle

This restaurant is very delicious and gluten free!! We really enjoyed everything and the lemonade was excellent too! Cannot wait to bring our family here! Thank you so much Bibibop for coming to Wake Forest! Your food makes us feel good!

Jean Farrell

The service was great and it was clean. But the real reason we drove 30min for dinner...the amazing tasting gluten-free and corn free pizza! It is also good value in today's prices. We all had food to bring home. It's larger than the typical GF pizza you find. My husband loves their regular food too!

Danielle D

Our server Rosemary was friendly and attentive to my allergies. I was excited to learn their chips are fried in a dedicated fryer that's gluten free. I had the Pastor tacos which were gluten free and dairy free, they were great!

Alan Hillman

We have experienced both eating in and take out at this location. A couple of times they order to go had errors and they were quick to apologize and fix the errors. I have several in my home with CELIAC: the ap is very user friendly and the staff is always attentive to safety and cross contamination. The ap also allows you to personalize the order and pick a couple side sauces. My personal favorite is the Scorpion Burger, I know for my celiacs the basic cheese burger with GF bun as well as the GF pizza are great!

This is hands down one of the best Indian restaurants in the area! I've lived here over 25 years, and it's been a challenge to find good quality, authentic Indian food. I've been here several times, and have ordered a wide variety:biryani, naan, paneer, dal makhni, saag, gobi manchurian, and malai kofta. All absolutely outstanding! I've added pictures below of the chicken biryani and Malai kofta. They have recently updated their menu too, and it identifies common allergens such as vegan, and nuts. All the entrees are gluten free too. Definitely will be back!!

Mindy Morgan

Beautiful food presentation. Interior very spacious. Plenty of parking outside. Gluten free and vegan options.

Virginia Hoffman

Laura Williams

So good! They have a gluten free specialty sushi roll menu and gf soy sauce! Service was excellent even provided recommendation and guidance regarding roll and saki selections. Would highly recommend!

The food at Curry House is absolutely incredible! I recently discovered this gem on DoorDash, and today, a coworker suggested we order takeout for the office. The food is also of much higher quality than the average restaurant. Amazing service, delicious food, and on-point ambiance. All meals are cooked to order. While takeout is good, dining in is even better. Kushal is an impeccable host! I've been to Wake Forest many times and had no idea that Curry House existed! This is a fantastic little Indian place with a sizable menu that clearly lists gluten, dairy, and vegan distinctions. They also ask about spice tolerance on a scale of 1-10. Everything we tried was delicious, and we will definitely be back! Curry House has become my favorite place to eat. I love how personal Kushal has become; he knows my order and is always so nice. He consistently goes above and beyond, and that is very much appreciated. I will forever love Curry House—it feels just like home. Also, their momo's are to die for! If you love dumplings, you have to try them. They are perfectly steamed with flavorful fillings and just the right amount of spice. Curry House has truly captured my heart and taste buds!

Jeffrey Waterman

Food was really good. Menu changes often, dietary restrictions are listed right on the menu for you. Lots of gluten free, vegetarian, vegan, and pescatarian options. Friendly staff

Karen Randall

Fast, friendly service Gluten-free options Usually not very noisy Food made fresh to order Convenient parking right in front of building

Rosemary Brinkley

Mandi Kaye Sorensen

I am so pleasantly surprised by this place! The atmosphere reminds me of Chipotle a bit, but it's not an assembly line. The mac-and-cheese is absolutely delicious. And we got all gluten free for my mom, and it was also delicious. If I hadn't known it was gf, I wouldn't have been able to tell. Staff is very friendly. Highly, highly recommend!

Madeline Eddi

I’m updating this review after the staff contacted me and were more than willing to improve my overall experience. I love trying new sushi restaurants and although the sushi rolls I ordered were not as tasty as I had hoped, I was contacted by someone at the restaurant who was friendly and apologized. I have a gluten intolerance and when I called to ask which rolls were gluten free, the lady who answered the phone did her best to answer my questions. I also ordered Tom yum soup which was good. The people who work here seem to genuinely care about your experience when visiting.

Patrick Silver

Just left here and I will be back... been craving firehouse for some time but have had issues with gluten. Found out they have gluten free bread and it was as close to regular bread as I've had so far. The sub was also built perfectly and delicious. Also the staff was very friendly, helpful and quick!

Jason M

This place is great and the only gluten free NY style pizza places I’ve found! Best gluten free pizza ever

Chelsea Hoyle

We really enjoyed our visit for my daughter’s 3rd birthday. The food and tea were yummy, and they accommodated my gluten free needs. Everyone was really nice as well.

Kelly Whitlock

Sharing a review specifically for Sean, the General Manager of the Wake Forest location I came in during the dinner rush while all employees were juggling online and in-person orders. I have both an allergy to gluten and dairy, and had also made a mistake in my online order. Amidst the chaos of the dinner rush, Sean was calm and collected, and communicated kindly that he would check the status of my sandwich, and personally made the desired change when he saw it hadn’t been made yet. This was while still serving the needs of the customers in line. He continued to go above and beyond in making sure that I did not experience cross contamination or exposure to allergens, even remaking my sandwich immediately upon realizing that cheese had mistakenly been added. Throughout the interaction, he was extremely quick and efficient while also providing a customer service experience that never once made my allergies or complicated order feel like an inconvenience. He remained kind, calm in a chaotic environment, and attentive to the needs of employees and customers around him.

Been coming here for almost 8 years under the previous owner and George has done a great job taking it to the next level - the food is always great, the Italian dinners are not over salty which is a good thing, his Pizza is top notch and always has been (if you've never tried, get a large plain for $10.99 on Monday, you'll be impressed!) and they even offer a wonderful 14" gluten free crust now which is the perfect balance of thinner than a NY style but still crispy - Violet and her mom Betty work behind the counter and as waitresses - they are wonderful and greet you with a smile even though it seems to be always busy and firing on all cylinders inside - best pizza in town and dare I say one of the top pies in Wake County - keep up the great work to George and the hardworking good people in your restaurant and wish you continued success!

Erin Davis

We love Raleigh Tamales delivery, it makes for a great easy dinner for our family that our boys also love! Everything we’ve ordered has been gluten free and no issues for our family member that has severe gluten sensitivity.

Robert Tickle

This is the best local restaurant! The food is fresh, quality, and good portions! Thank you very much to the owners and staff, they are very friendly and helpful with gluten free options! Last night's meal brought my family back together, thank you so much Charlie's!

Christi Christian

Very good pizza 😊 Extra nice staff too! That’s always a bonus in a world that’s lost their desire for quality customer service. Very good gluten-friendly pizza too! Best I’ve had.

Abby Baker

Love this addition to the WF food scene. Stunningly beautiful restaurant with a full bar. Service was friendly while we visited. The food was good and I like that they have gluten free options. The fry portion was rather small though. A solid place to grab a bite of seafood.

B Trevillian

Brigs is a great spot for breakfast! Every month they offer new pancake options - December is gingerbread! Plates and omelets are wonderful, too. Gluten-free and vegetarian options available.

Randy Earl

I've been to TDLLO a few times now, and I've been very pleased to find Gluten Free options, both in the Hibachi and Sushi menus. Right now they have a separate GF supplement to the menu, but my server told me they will be printing new menus soon with GF items and options clearly marked in the menu. The food is good, the wait staff knowledgeable about gluten allergy needs and friendly. This will definitely be a regular option for me.

Kim Ryan

The kitchen is dirty. Proper cleaning of dishes is not followed. Sandwiches put on dirty pans to heat up. Brownies are from a box. They claim to have gluten free options but do not use different utensils for this, lots of cross contamination. Use dirty rags to wipe down tables and counters. Never saw employees wash hands.

Shaun Stearns

This is the best BBQ I've ever had. The pork belly burnt ends and pork ribs are phenomenal. The brisket and pulled pork are also the best I've ever had. Even the cabbage was outstanding. All the meats and most sauces are gluten-free and dairy-free.

carolyn nord

Had a great experience here with Kaitlyn. I'm allergic to gluten, and as soon as I mentioned that, she changed her gloves and took extra precautions to make sure things were safe for me. It's always stressful when I eat out, but with someone like her, giving me a list of foods that were safe and making sure there wasn't any cross contamination I feel safe returning here! It was delicious and I didn't get sick. Thanks again!

Ashleigh T

Went there for dinner with husband. Had the B.K.E. sushi roll. Since I'm celiac and can not have any gluten, they removed the fried onion crisps. Their hibachi meals are great and plentiful. Just avoid the fried rice if needed and ask for the gluten free soy sauce. They have many ways to customize your meals and will work with you. Just need to ask the server to check with the kitchen. My server was very nice and accommodating.

I wanted to use my points before the year ends, so I stopped at the closest location near me. Surprisingly, at 5 pm, there was no line. We went thru the drive-through this time, but the inside is always clean. All of the associates we engaged with during this visit were kind. Our fries were fresh! My sandwich on gluten-free bread was perfect. This was my first time trying the crunchy kale salad. It was good. But I didn't receive the almonds that compliment it. I received tomatoe crispy red bell peppers instead.

tracey dellarova

Great burger experience. Local, hand made! Awesome, friendly. Had bok choy burger wrap, amazing for those looking for gluten free. We'll be back!

Nicole Currier

We went for the first time last night and it was an incredible experience. I am 100 percent gluten free due to a very high allergy and our waiter was amazing and was able to accommodate and give excellent advice on dishes. My husband is not gf so some of the pics you will notice are not gf lol . We will definitely be back.

The Versatile Cooking Mama catered my kid's 3rd birthday party. Oh my gosh it was DELISH!!!! We all couldn't get over how tasty everything was! So many compliments! We had mac n cheese, black eyed peas salad, sweet potato corn bread, fruit... It was wonderful! And Alhaja was so great to work with- so experienced, creative, down to earth, and accommodating! She even made me a special gluten-free cornbread. Such a great experience! Highly highly recommend!

I had a vegan wrap, and my husband had the chicken wrap. It was delicious! The food was so natural and free of additives. I had a gluten-free wrap. I will be back many times.

Kara Petersen

I'm obsessed w/ Taburete! We get their veggie arepas 3x/mo. So Yummy!!! And Taburete made 50 gluten-free empanadas for a party we just had. Oh my gosh it was DELISH!!!! My new fave is guava and cheese. We all couldn't get over how tasty everything was! So many compliments!

Marie-Josée Shaar

Finally a great restaurant right in the heart of Heritage, Wake Forest! Wow! Great food, cooked on-site. Fresh. Nothing pre-made. Meats so flavorful you'll moan out loud. Veggies that are creative and attractive. Gluten free options that are as delicious as the rest of the items. A kids menu that goes beyond tomato sauce pasta and chicken nuggets. An atmosphere that is warm and upscale. Service staff that cares. What more can we ask for? So excited that it's here! Keep up the good work, guys!
