Top 50 Gluten-Free Kid-Friendly Spots Across 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 😊

Lots of healthy options. I tried their sausage biscuit and Cyprus side salad. The biscuit was good but the salad was stellar! So fresh and delicious. The dressing so light and flavorful. They had lots of gluten free and vegan options. Enjoyed the inside, very warm and inviting.

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.

We were there Dec.8th,Sunday 6:30pm. As soon as we stood to order, no one recognized our presence. The guy and lady just went on with what they’re doing. Not busy, it’s just us waiting. 2 people seated. They could’ve at least say, We’ll be with you or something. Instead, they just made us wait for about 3mins. We ordered Bacon and brie pasta which is the only one that’s ok that’s why I gave a 2 star. The Supreme pizza and a gluten-free pizza are so dry and tasteless. This is also the dirtiest location we’ve been to. I hope the owner/manager will address the performance of their staff. The attitude they reflected shows that they’re not happy with what they do.

This place was absolutely amazing! The gluten free bread was so good! The fries were amazing and served in a huge portion which was great for sharing! Would highly recommend eating here if you are near Norfolk area.

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.

We were visiting last spring from the Midwest, and I kept hearing recommendations from locals to eat here… it was wonderful! The church building, the location (we had a fantastic walk all around the neighborhood and waterfront after dinner), and the food were all perfect!!! I have celiac, and their GF options were delicious and I didn’t get sick. My husband and I hope to return one day!

Chris McCabe

Amazing location with Gluten Free Breakfast options. Super accommodating for our celiac family. Our server felt like a family member serving us at a home cooked meal. This location is in the top 3 best gluten free breakfast we've ever been too in the US. Thanks for a great experience!

Delicious pizzas and wide variety of gluten free options. They even had the courtesy of putting the gluten free pizzas in a separate take out bag. Will definitely be back.

Alexander Dornstauder

Subs aren't bad. They do a nice gluten free sub roll. However cross contamination does happen.

Martine Dunton

My family came to celebrate a birthday. My son has a food allergy. The server Carson told me that they couldn't do anything to accommodate my son, and this is a seafood restaurant. I said to Carson we go to many seafood restaurants like captain George and they accommodate us.So I asked for the manager. The manager which informed me that the owners daughter has celiac and they use the over for her so I was like please do that for my son.

Brittany Haslem

Went to Saffron Bistro for date night last night. The food is incredible, the restaurant is spotless, and the the staff is welcoming and attentive. I have celiac and was so pleased that the majority of the menu is gluten free. Our servers were very kind and didn’t mind double checking for me that the items I ordered were gluten free. Can’t wait to go back!

Joshua Seagrave

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!

Adrian Taylor

Good googly moogly this place has great food. And an entire vegan menu if you like me crave vegan food other than veggie burgers you love a good falafel and addicted to good hummus. Come here immediately. PS they also have a vegan and gluten-free brownie. I wanted to order everything on the menu and I think I did.

E A

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.

Julito Maraña

**ABSOLUTELY THE MOST DELICIOUS THAI FOOD IN TOWN!!** I tried their Laab Thai Spicy, and oh my God it definitely 100% everything I could ask for, far exceeded my expectations, every ingredient was definitely there and blended so well together. HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend everyone to try this restaurant. They have food for just about everyone! Gluten free, vegetarian, carnivores, soup lovers, seafood, and their levels of spicy is super awesome as well!! Can't wait to go back!

I stumbled upon this donut shop when researching donut shop options for the kids. It happened to be a Friday and they had fresh gluten friendly donuts! It made my day. I splurged and got a half dozen and a lavender honey latte! Just heavenly!!!

Maybe their regular waffles are good, but their gluten free waffles were just about the worst thing we've eaten in a long time. Dense, heavy, and flavorless. The toppings were fine, which saved the meal somewhat. Syrup was just that gummy pancake syrup that's mainly high fructose corn syrup. Lukewarm coffee rounded out the meal, and the folks behind the counter seemed like they'd prefer to be elsewhere. Me too, my man, me too...

Cynthia Jetson

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.

Kelley Sarsfield

My mom cannot eat gluten and their pizzas are baked all in the same over so she wasn’t able to eat anything but a salad, even though the menu includes “gluten-friendly” pizza crusts. Line workers all disappeared when me and my family were next in line and had little to no knowledge about cross-contamination with gluten. Our uncooked pizzas were sitting on the line waiting to be put in the oven while the one line worker made our salads, which extended our time in line. The people behind us had their food put in the oven before ours which confused us. We were in line for probably 45 minutes before we payed, then had to wait longer for our pizzas to finish cooking. Everyone seemed to be upset with us as we were waiting. Honestly I couldn’t wait to leave, felt so uncomfortable.

Carrie Geske

Very friendly service. Fast, clean, nice atmosphere. Delicious grilled chicken, gluten free bun and chocolate shake.

ANTHONY Smith-Benoit

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.

Stefanie Powell

Amazing ice cream with gluten free options!

Nina

If you are locking for a true farm to table, this is it. Lots of vegetarian options as well as gluten free. My roast beef sandwich was delicious.

Jean Rosalia

Always a fantastic meal whether you're dining in or ordering takeout. Generous portions and gluten free!!

I go here to get gluten friendly pancakes. The service was good. The food was also good.

Elaine Lopez Miranda

Gluten Free bread available upon request.

Mark Soccio

It is great to be able to go to a well established restaurant like this and get a fast but good quality meal, And have it made gluten free! I love how their fixings bar always has such fresh food on it!

Crystal Barry

I have loved Razzo since their old location and family and friends have followed to their new location. If anything it has gotten better. The best thing for me is I have celiac disease (gluten free) and they have always taken care of me. Tonight I got the best tasting Veal Francese gluten free with no problems with the friendliest hostess and waitress. As a business owner myself I knew I needed to let them know how much my friend, son and I enjoyed the meal and will continue to come back as we have for years. Cheers!

Kelly Turcotte

Gluten free options & great service even tho it was busy.

Jenna Hall

They have gluten free noodles!!! And gluten free options!!!

Rachel Schardt

The wait staff was super friendly and bonus some gluten-free options as well. I just wish they had more options. The lemonade iced tea is amazing.

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

Jamieson Highley

Extremely helpful staff, really do their absolute best for gluten free people. They are the only major hoggie chain that has a gluten free bun, it's an udies bun and is quite good. They always wipe everything down and clean the cutting board for all allergies.

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!!

Ryan Alexander

First time coming to the shop at Premium Outlets. I got the steak and egg absolutely positively delicious! The two young ladies working very friendly and accommodating to my gluten free allergy (celiac). Jada and Tink really good hires great energy and vibes hire more people like them!!

Jack

So good. I did the grab and go and I’m such a happy girl with the chicken salads here. My only “wish” is that they added a gluten free bread type option

Laura Rector

Solo diner. Monday morning, and I was seated immediately. I like the look of blended old and new decor. I'm a gluten-free diner, so I ordered the steak burrito without a tortilla. It came out in a bowl, and even though the hash browns were on the bottom, they were still crispy! There was a good amount of steak on it, too! I brought my own coffee from my hotel, and they never said anything about it (win-win). There is a surcharge for using a credit card. Rashida is a delight! 😊

Karen Beltethon

My husband decided to have lunch here yesterday since we had previously been to a different location. We chose this due to the gluten free pizza and faux cheese since I can’t have gluten or dairy. A few hours after eating, I became very sick and am still sick today. The pizza absolutely had gluten in it, and I specifically told the waitress I am extremely sensitive to gluten and dairy. What a shame that our family day turned into back to back sick days. This is especially true because we paid a decent amount of money for our food, and I do not appreciate paying for one thing and receiving another.

First, there was Elle (“Ellie”), our superb, professional, well-informed server. A veteran of restaurant work, and thoroughly precise in her entire presentation. Then, there was the food. Outstanding in preparation, quality of ingredients, and flavor combinations. The iceberg salad boasted a stunning array of flavors and garnishes and an emulsified, balsamic vinaigrette. My oysters Rockefeller were forgettable yet tasty, just not the classic I had expected. My wife had the crispy whole (boneless!) trout, and I had a fabulous roasted whole (boneless!) branzino. Both fishes were garnished with some splashes of frissee lettuce, with a sweet, subtle lemon vinaigrette. I didn’t care for the succotash because it included soy beans instead of lima beans. A disappointing, inappropriate blend of corn, carrots, and edamame. Lima beans makes succotash authentic, and this was a strange departure. The passionfruit white chocolate mousse chocolate bomb was a great dessert, well worth trying because it was gluten-free and so satisfying. This was a fabulous experience at Saltine.
