Top 27 Gluten-Free Lunch Spots to Discover in Cuenca City

Hector Marco Lozano

We were at our communion and I have intolerances to gluten, lactose and egg white and I had no problems with the food, I must highlight that they had gluten-free bread in good condition, as starters they gave us a tropical salad that I had no problem with, then they gave us a board of Iberian cold cuts (ham, loin, Manchego cheese), I did not eat the cheese there, they also gave us a glass of homemade gazpacho that was gluten-free and very delicious, then a steak tartare that at first the waitress told me not to eat because she would bring me another one without Perry sauce that had gluten in the sauce, however the manager said that the tartare did not have that and that I could eat it without any problem to which we agreed, then the steak tartare arrived without sauce which in theory was gluten-free, it did not sit badly with me but at the table there was a celiac and the food did not sit well with her (probably because the first steak tartare had gluten and the manager said no), for the second course I had sirloin steak Veal was served very rare, and I liked it that way, but some people like it more rare, and they gave it to those who wanted it less. I couldn't have any dessert, so they offered me melon, which I agreed to without a problem. I would go back, but there are some small details that could be improved, like the ones I mentioned earlier in the review, in order to achieve 5 stars.

The gluten-free pizza is incredible!!! It's a luxury to be able to eat such delicious pizza with such a good, gluten-free crust. And the staff is super attentive, fast, and friendly. I would definitely come back.

A well-decorated place with Vespas. The staff was very friendly and attentive, trying to accommodate our requests. My daughters are celiac, and they gave us many options to accommodate our needs. It's truly a pleasure to meet such a friendly staff. The menu is very celiac-friendly—almost three-quarters of it is gluten-free—and the burgers are too. 100% recommended for celiacs. They have a €19 menu without a drink, which was very good value for money. The desserts were homemade and very good.

We were 10 people eating on Saturday and it was an unbeatable experience. We ordered the beef menu for everyone and the service from Fran and her entire team was unbeatable, they were attentive at all times to ensure that there was no shortage of bread or drink. I also really liked that they explained everything that went into each dish and the use of local ingredients in the area. On the other hand, I am celiac and there was no problem since they control the issue perfectly, they have gluten-free bread and they adapt the dishes that are not suitable or change them for others that are. We will definitely repeat as it is an experience that is 100% worth it.

I'm celiac, and they adapted my dishes without any problem. Patricia served us, very professional, and explained each dish in detail, along with how to adapt it. She gave me a lot of confidence and peace of mind. We recommend the artichokes and the scrambled eggs.

Out of 10! The place is beautiful, the food is super good and quality, the service is very very good and the atmosphere is cozy and calm! The partridge pate was delicious and the spectacular steak on top is served on a hot plate that stays very well and the service is super attentive! They have many gluten-free dishes. And the wine we ordered was very good! We will return for sure!!

If I could give more stars, I would... All the staff are super friendly, smiling, pleasant, that's how nice it is. The food is at the same level. We tried the three typical dishes: morteruelo, ajoarriero and zarajos, all delicious, generous quantity and perfect price! I recommend without hesitation. The menu had a section for celiacs, they had a vegan burger, and lactose-free milk. On top of that they think about everyone! 10/10

I was having breakfast, I ordered an international menu (I think it was English), it came with coffee (they gave you a choice of coffee or tea), breakfast was two large pancakes with agave syrup, bacon and scrambled eggs, it seems very expensive to me since it cost €10.70 for the plate alone, the quality is good but still the prices are somewhat high, I also ordered a cocoa that was also delicious and was homemade but it was expensive for what it was, the service is very fast and comfortable, You order with your mobile phone and pay at the cashier or pay from your mobile phone, in 10 minutes at most you have your order even if the place is busy, there is also a water dispenser with glasses to go and drink for free and sugar and other things in case you want to drink or even to have a mate, the bathrooms are usually clean and the place is quiet and comfortable. We will return but I hope they reduce the prices, that's why I don't give it 5 stars. Also as a suggestion, it would be good if they had more options for celiacs and their options were more varied.

We came specifically for the gluten-free pizza. The gluten-free dough isn't bad, to be honest, but I don't like places that deceive you on the menu. We ordered the pizza with arugula, ham, and buffalo cheese, €16, and they gave us regular mozzarella. If they don't use buffalo cheese, they should take it off the menu, or if they don't, they should let us know, because I feel like they're deceiving the customers. We had to ask for a second chicken pizza with honey sauce; the dough was raw. I would have overlooked the second option if it weren't for the mozzarella. We won't be back. ————— reply ————- Check the mozzarella. It's not smooth or creamy, and it's not nearly melting. It's not the same as in other photos; it's a dense lump. That's normal fresh mozzarella in the photo, not buffalo or burrata. It's a shame I didn't take a photo of the sliced ​​mozzarella so you wouldn't call me a liar. Maybe you can't tell the difference between the two. Have a linden tea.

Celius

Reasonable price and very well connected to the city's points of interest. Although they do not specialize in gluten-free food, they prepared something for my daughter. Everything was great and the staff was exceptional. When I return to Cuenca, I'm not looking anymore: I'm going directly to eat with them.

Amanda Delgado Tudela

Everything was delicious and the service was great. We were two celiacs and they adapted the gluten-free dishes to us great and they were also very informed and attentive. The ajoarriero very delicious!!

Cristina Rodrigo

Spectacular atmosphere, incredible location. Gluten-free food that tastes like real food. (Those with celiac disease will understand.) I highly recommend it.

Angela Saez

We have eaten gluten-free! They have given us good confidence. Fast service and spectacular food. Javi's treatment was incredible. We will return. More people like him are needed in the hospitality industry. Thank you.

Today I visited the Piccolo restaurant, we had a table at 2:30 p.m., and I left at 5:00 p.m. And you will wonder why. It took them 2 hours to bring the food. The food is very good but no one can recover the time lost. I have eaten gluten-free macaroni, barbecue pizza and gluten-free barbecue, all delicious. The dough of the latter was a bit quite hard. It took a long time but it's done.

They saved me in one day twice: they have gluten-free bread/toast! And they have the kitchen open all day, we went to eat almost at 6 and the portions were very large and good! The staff was very friendly, especially the Venezuelan boy and his cousin! Highly recommended if you are in Cuenca

Vanessa Cortelles Salinas

Good cafeteria with a lot of variety for both breakfast and lunch. Good service and value for money. It is also very cozy. I recommend natural juices. They also have gluten-free toast options.

The food was delicious and they were very friendly, but it took a long time to serve (we sat down at 3:30 and watched the sunset). It was a long weekend and there were tons of people waiting. They kept preparing tables and seating us. They were overwhelmed and couldn't keep up. But it was worth it. The views from the terrace are beautiful. We ate very well, and they have gluten-free options. We spoke to them and they had the issue under control.

We came for dinner as a group of friends on an impromptu plan. We were served by Amanda, who was friendly, polite, warm, and attentive. The service was quick, and they accommodated one of the guests' gluten intolerances. We'll be back!
