Top 50 Gluten-Free Kid-Friendly Spots to Explore in Kirkland

Ashley Hale

Love a place with a dedicated gluten free fryer!! And the food is so delicious! Ive had their regular buns and the GF with my celiac daughter and I actually like their GF buns more than the regular ones. The buns have a pancake-like texture but I prefer it!

Great walk through of ingredients and all gluten free chicken

I’m so grateful we have a healthy and casual cafe in the Juanita Village area! I’m gluten- and dairy-free, and I have no problem finding dining options. The food always tastes healthy and fresh. I think the price is fair for the quality. I always have leftovers to take home, but I have a small to medium appetite. The sustainable packaging is great, and I love the snack options. The zucchini matcha muffin is delicious! My favorite meal is the vegetable and rice bowl, but the chicken sandwich and the breakfast sandwich is also delicious. I removed a star for the atmosphere: it’s better since they walled off the pharmacy/practitioner area but it’s still cold and a bit clinical inside. Either there’s no background music at all, or it’s internet radio with ads and synthesized instruments. Sometimes I feel like I’m interrupting some of the staff (but other staff members are friendly). Still, it’s one of my favorite places to meet a friend for breakfast or lunch. I never feel hurried, and I always feel good after I eat there. It’s often pretty quiet inside; I hope they get good business so they can stay here for years to come!

Very nice coffee place! Not a fan of coffee but I did get a hot chocolate and they have a lot of alternative milks you can choose from. I also really enjoyed their gluten free pastry option. The marion berry biscuit was delicious. A little bit dry but not bad for gluten free. Not bad prices either. The staff were very nice, I'll be sure to visit more often.

My friend Jennifer who is a very selective person regarding food ingredients approves of this place! We had an amazing gluten free vegan dinner & loved everything! Highly recommended. Thank you to the awesome staff for all of your hard work.

Visited Cafe Veloce for the first time yesterday and WILL BE BACK. We came with a small group for lunch yesterday and it was wonderful. Fun space, Gluten Free pasta options and exceptional service! Such a great experience!!

Jeff Hansen

Pros: Amazing food! Gluten free great bread! Fun drinks, extremely good prices. All in all a great place I go to frequently. Some customers don't like the customer service, but I've always had a good experience with them. Always friendly, quick, and efficient with me. I appreciate the staff. Cons: Very dirty, ceiling over the kitchen, walls, and seats really need to be cleaned. Maybe hire a cleaner once a month to do a deep clean 🤷🏼.

Absolutely glowing review for Deru! From the moment we contacted Deru for our wedding cake, we knew we were in excellent hands. Lezlie's professionalism and genuine care were evident from the start. We opted for their signature carrot cake, and it was, without exaggeration, the best carrot cake we've ever tasted. It was moist, flavorful, and absolutely divine – we are still receiving compliments from our guests weeks later! The logistics of delivering to the Space Needle take a little extra care, but Lezlie handled it with grace and punctuality. She arrived precisely on time, ensuring our cake was perfectly placed and ready for our celebration. What truly set Deru apart was their attentiveness to our guests' dietary needs. We had guests with a tree nut allergy and others requiring gluten-free options. Lezlie thoughtfully recommended a delicious mini chocolate cake for the nut allergy, which was a huge hit. For our gluten-free guests, she offered their incredible jam drop cookies, which were equally raved about. This level of personalized service and consideration was beyond our expectations. Our florist added some simple flowers to the cake, which complemented its natural beauty perfectly. The cake itself was a masterpiece, and Deru's attention to detail made it a truly unforgettable part of our wedding. If you're looking for a wedding cake that not only tastes incredible but is also crafted with care and personalized service, look no further than Deru. They exceeded our wildest expectations, and we wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking a truly exceptional dessert experience. Thank you, Lezlie and the entire Deru team, for making our wedding day so sweet!

Great gluten free pizza

Mm

Amazing GLUTEN FREE food. They have a WHOLE MENU of gluten free options! Delicious! Wow I'm so impressed!

Sarah Joshi

The only ice cream worth eating🍦 Love that they ask you about allergies when you line up. I’m celiac and they are always happy to go take a fresh scoop from the back to reduce contamination risk. Also super convenient to order your pints ahead of time and skip the line!

Fatma ISIK ECE

Vegan, and gluten free options are great yet delicious. We loved all the food and especially sweet Sticky rice and Mango.

Karen N-M

I've been going to The Box for several years now - the food is delicious and the people are awesome! I was so glad I found out they cater. I ordered some of my favorites for the holidays - miso glazed salmon, chicken karaage, chop chop salad, and kalua pork hum baos. Not only did it save me the stress of cooking, I got a lot of compliments on the food. (One tip - by keeping the hum bao toppings and bread separate, the bread didn't get soggy and both my guest who was gluten-free as well as my guest who didn't eat pork really enjoyed the hum baos.) I was also able to order gluten-free chicken and salmon. Thank you Reis and Sanita - you guys are the BEST!

Casey Peay

Decided to try a new burger place in Kirkland. I thought the burgers were good but I really liked the thin cut fries. They also had a gluten free option for my wife so that is a plus.

Amanda Olson

I love this place. I almost always get the chicken bowl, which you can request to be mild, medium or extra spicy. The chicken is very moist and flavorful and the garlic sauce is divine. They have delicious food and are accommodating to those who can’t either gluten or dairy/egg. It’s great how they label which items are gluten free / dairy free on the online menu. The only strange thing is that I’m unsure if/when they sell baba ghanoush, which I would order every time if I could. It is unavailable to order online but I did order it in-person once (the worker added for me as I was not able to locate it on the ordering system), so they must have it sometimes? I’m unclear as to what’s going on there. Would be nice to have all the time.

Shelaine Wright

We went here for our anniversary and loved it so much! The server was very thorough helping me identify what I could and couldn’t eat as someone who is gluten free. Their menu was extensive and all great choices. The cocktails were so tasty and the food was amazing! We had the pad cashew, the gang panang curry, and the pineapple fried rice- and all were awesome! Our service was great- special shoot out to Meow who made us feel extra special while celebrating our special day. Can’t wait to back here over and over again!

Akanksha Shrivastava

Very nice staff and food was delicious. They have vegan and gluten free options as well and are so considerate. Loved it

Vinnie “Vinnie Spaghetti” Spaghetti

Tasty pizza, when they get your order right. Been ordering from here for several years as they're the only pizza place with gluten free options, but more than 50% of the time the order is incorrect and needs to either be refunded or redelivered. Wish I could recommend them more but this issue has been consistent the entire time I've ordered from them.

Hunter Sellen

I recently had stopped in on my lunch break to grab a to-go order here and had a great experience. I asked the very kind lady at the front desk for her order recommendation and she was excited to give me details about some of their popular dishes. I went with the Tonkotsu Shoyu and was very impressed, the broth was thick and rich and the pork serving was of good size and very tender with the perfect amount of fat. Also, upon inspecting the menu I noticed that they also have a Gluten Free noodle option! This means both myself and my girlfriend can enjoy the food here, huge plus!!

Tracie Elliman

Amazing Gluten Free Vegan cheese pizza everrrrrr❤️

Nickie Chirelli

My partner and I eat here often and it's always delicious. Staff is always friendly and Gluten-free options are very clearly marked. I wouldn't recommend for sensitive celiacs because there's definitely a risk of CC but I've personally not had an issue.

David Ruiz

Good food, they should be more sure when they give you "gluten free menu"

Georgia Rose Farm

Even with all the September forest fire smoke blocking the visibility of Lake Washington it was still a great spot to enjoy excellently prepared seafood. The menu was pared down from Covid but there were still great options that made it easy to choose gluten and dairy-free options.

Tyron

I ordered a regular gluten-free sub and they tried to sell me a sub that was 4" long for $13.50. pff. That's almost smaller than their mini sub. When I asked about it the guy who made it got very defensive and argumentative. I just walked out of the store :-( I'm quite shocked at the horrendous customer service.

Bobby Chang

We had the pate, duck confit and watermelon salad. The pate was great and the server was very accommodating to bring us extra bread and gluten free options. The duck confit was perfectly cooked and fell off the bone and the watermelon salad was one of the best I’ve ever tried.

Kate Gadalina

Very tasty gluten free pasta. I recommend everyone to visit this place and appreciate the high quality and taste of the pasta.

Sharon K

Delicious pizza, got take out, gluten free Quentin florentino. It’s an olive oil base and the crust was the best gf I’ve had. I’ve had pizza in MN, IL, MO, CA and FL. Just visiting and now I’m sad I won’t get it at home. Our server was very helpful and friendly. Even taking a pic of the gf ingredients to show me. My husband got regular mushroom pizza and loved it too. You won’t regret it!

Today I give them 4 stars for listening and leaning in to new ways to lead with integrity, kindness and inclusivity. Will be back in a month to see where it goes and update at that time. Staff were kind and helpful. Baked goods include one vegan berry bar baked in house and a gluten free option. Be great to see organic berries used . Interior warm and calming The bad news is non dairy milk- so all of you macros intolerant, milk allergic, compassionate choosing plant milk, vegan etc you will be charged a whopping $1.25 This is cost prohibitive for many especially students. Be a leader. Please explore having your prices be more equal - if you need to charge a bit more on regular coffees, cow milk, baked goods, etc. just spread it out so you don't penalize those choosing whether for medical, health, the environment or out of compassion for animals... non dairy milks. Informing my datapoints include having worked on a family farm on the Olympic Peninsula during college. This price is exceedingly high compared to nearby coffee places Next review will advise more about beans and the nut and plant based milk costs

Kailey McCloud

Definitely not a mom and pop pho place but still really tasty. I appreciated all the gluten free options that were clearly marked. Pho is pretty good but I loved their vermicelli noodle bowl. Service was great and fast. Although, the ordering system is all tablet based.

Kylie Sabra

Pizza in Kirkland often requires taking out a second mortgage. When a simple gluten-free pizza cost $30 you just kind of give up head for the Frozen stuff. But then there's Acropolis. The sauce is excellent. It's not overly bready. And it's actually affordable. We'll go back I'm sure. Again. And again.

Aaron Hoy

Personally, my wife and I driver over 45 minutes to get here as often as possible. We love how the chicken is grilled and the garlicky spices. Everything tastes great our our favorites is Diablo Chicken, Algerian Chicken, hummus and the homemade salad dressing. One thing you have to keep in mind if you don't like garlic this is the wrong place, other wise this is he's in on earth for the rest of us. Lastly, they have many gluten free options.

Jonathan “Foxius” Slater

Its okay, but certainly not my style. Just not a lot of variety for meat eaters who aren't vegetarian or are needing gluten free foods. The Cuban sandwich was pretty good, bit surprised by pickles which I wasn't told about. Overall 3/5. Not bad.

Anais S

Everything I tried was really good (mushroom risotto, buratta, osso bucco, carpaccio di manzo ). Plenty of naturally gluten-free items or are gluten-free modifiable (ie. all pastas and pizzas can be made with gf pasta and crust). Would definitely come back.

Danielle Weese

Quality sushi, quality service! Gluten free? Just tell a member of the staff! Many GF options and they even have Tamari! Sockeye nigiri, chu-toro nigiri, Alaskan roll, California roll, truffle scallop roll, I could go on and on! Everything is delicious! Bonus, a fun and friendly staff!

Jessica Carla

I love their sushi.. a lot of different types of sushi and gluten free options

Lola M.

Food was delicious, staff friendly and helpful. Food was served very quickly. I asked them to prepare something gluten free and they told me that it will be 100% gluten free and safe for celiac. As they said they did. The food was gluten free and delicious as I mentioned before. Highly recommend.

Ted Klinkenberg

Delicious poke for a great price, staff was super knowledgeable about gluten free options and very friendly and helpful!

Missy Hannen

Needed some gluten free pizza after 9pm, and this was the closest thing open. Was confusing because it looks like just a gas station, but it's there! Incredible pizza! Will definitely be going back.

Rahil Arora

They have been kind enough to make a few dishes gluten free on request. So if you have gluten sensitivity, just let them know and it doesn't show up on the menu.

Good food. Catfish dish was fabulous. Used gluten free soy sauce, & took time to proof it 👍Understand what gluten free means. Must show your vaccination card, which is much appreciated. Pricing is moderate per dish. My lunch was with appetizers, Thai tea & main dish, so seems pricy but not for 3 itemd

Hannah Graham

Good food. Fun view where you can see the boats come in. Accommodate my celiac well, have not gotten sick and have eaten here 2-4 times. Only 4 stars because I requested a window seat that was open but was denied because somebody already checked in. Even though no one was sitting there 🤷🏼‍♀️

Amanda & Tyler Crumbley

My husband brought home a gluten free pizza with no dairy cheese, just goat cheese. It was probably the best gluten free crust I've ever had! Great pizza, would totally go back again!

Maddie

Dosa was the highlight for us, very soft and buttery. The coconut chutney was delicious and the sambar was flavorful and had a good amount of spice. The butter chicken was good, would get it again, could have a bit more flavor. Naan was fluffy. Chai was tasty but they don’t offer masala chai. Lots of their menu was gluten free for those with an allergy:) Definitely recommend!

Kailey McCloud Han

Food is pretty good! Ambience is great too however it is kind of small so sometimes there is a wait, especially when it’s the summer! Otherwise great and I like to take my friends here. Also great gluten free choices and they take it pretty seriously.

Madhusudhan Sridhar

Tried the Corinthian Omelette here with Gluten free toast and a Hashbrown! They had 4 different kinds of hot sauce which helped bring some spice. Great service and atmosphere too :)

Ron Benson

Such an amazing restaurant! The food was unbelievably fresh and delicious, and the service was incredible. They also accommodated a gluten free member of our party very well! Overall this place is absolutely a hidden treasure. If I could give 6 stars I would. I hope this restaurant gets more publicity because it is the best sushi restaurant in all of the Kirkland. I am not even exaggerating, this restaurant was an absolute 10/10. HIGHLY recommend!

Asha Jamila Hendrieth

Got this Boba 🧋 via delivery with some of the gluten free pastries. Drinks were delicious and the mochi pastries were so balanced and light. What really sent me was the presentation. Typically restaurants will just throw everything in a bag, but they added a hand-written touch that made me feel like it was made by a friend. Really nice experience, excited to visit the store IRL

Vardah Malik

Swung by for a late lunch on a random Wednesday - super nice owners and service. We got Fesenjoon and saffron rice pudding - both delicious. Two of us could split a serving and had leftovers to take home. Gluten Free options were clearly labeled (appreciate this as a celiac). Nice, calm environment - would definitely recommend.

Joshua Bye

One of the best places to get a gluten free pizza, great staff!
