Very cautious with allergies. Fries made in dedicated fryer. Gluten free bun or lettuce wrap available.

Michael Baron

Rice noodles and knowledgeable on gluten free broth and other items

Dori D

Always a wonderful experience. We shared a salad, pasta course, main course & dessert ; everything came already divided which was so nice. My guest has a gluten allergy and we had plenty of options, no problem

Happy to have visited the Chicago location after going to Seattle's earlier this year. What a great spot.. A so happy to realize that most is gluten free! Vegans and non vegans alike should check this place out.

Amanda Whittington

DELICIOUS gluten free crepes!! 10/10

Megan Benjamin

A lot of gluten free options! Quite delicious, though some dishes are a bit small compared to others. The soup is easily 3 portions.

Kassie

Celiac friendly! 99% gluten free. Separate fryers!

Lauren Kieninger

Veggie staple! I love the new menu changes! I have been eating here for at least 13 years and I am thrilled to have newer options. Love all the gluten free options now too, especially that new cheesecake. So nice to see a little menu revamp while keeping the favs. Well done! - also their delivery travels/holds up a lot better than most, so that's a plus.

Order through Uber eats and there was a mix up with the order. I called and they worked with me to fix the situation and even threw in another item on the house. Great customer service! Then once we got the food it was also great! We ordered 2 pizzas gluten free due to dietary restrictions and it was excellent! A nice fluffy crust with a crispy bottom. Would definitely recommend.

Emily Schwefel

Came here with the family and had a wonderful time! Adrian was our server, he was so kind and helpful! He was also super knowledgeable about all the gluten free options on the menu and brought out my tacos in a separate dish! Great atmosphere, food, and drinks! Will definitely be back soon!

Masha Vibrant Yoga

I love that they have gluten free/dairy free/egg free crepes. It’s buckwheat so it tastes a bit funny and sticky but it’s ok. The savory flavor was ok for me but the sweet one: honey, walnut and strawberry was great. Amazing tea selection and nice big mugs

Hope Cullen

I live in the neighborhood and have been to Mindy’s many times. The food is amazing and the staff is so friendly and kind. Everything I’ve had from there is SO good, from their bagels to biscuits to cookies to donuts! They have gluten free bagels and some gluten free sweets too, that are delicious. I highly recommend Mindy’s Bakery!

April Samuelson

Elia is beautiful. The food leaves a lot to be desired. It's one of the few places in Wicker Park that lists gluten free options on the menu.

Garrett Thomas

Lots of gluten free options, a wide variety of food (from sushi, to Thai curry, to noodle dishes, and more). Food is good and priced well. I thought the presentation on some of the food was a little cheesy and it’s not very cohesive, but I think that is part of the charm of this place. Everything that comes out is like it’s own little art piece. We walked by another table on our way out that had a very detailed and artistic dragon made out of colorful mayo (I think?) so fun and creative.

Cierra Maras

Absolutely incredible food. No choice is a bad choice. Our server Rebecca was super sweet. Helped me navigate as a celiac needing gluten free, she was very kind and made sure my food wasn't in contact with gluten. Sauces are gluten free too! I got the burnt ends. Portion seems sort of small but it was more than enough.

Jae Irene

Love this place. Much better than Chipotle. I visited on a whim with my 4 year old niece and girlfriend and the food and service was bomb. And they’re gluten free!!!

Michael Baron

Probably the best gluten free pizza in Chicago. Not an exaggeration.

Jennifer Gage

Thank you for being so aware of food allergies, especially gluten and dairy. Really good and so many options!

Ana Dexel

As someone who is newly gluten free and visiting Chicago for the first time, I was overwhelmingly satisfied with both the food and welcoming/accommodating service here. Our server was kind and efficient and our food was outstanding. While only staying five days here in Chicago, both my mom and I agreed to return here for dinner before we leave.

Amlys Lopez

Amazing food. Most of their menu is customizable so you can make it vegetarian or vegan. My spouse has Celiac’s and they were super careful and accommodating. Every time someone comes to visit me I make sure to bring them. Their Huevos Volando is a dream come true, as have been their chai, coffee, lemonades, and everything there we’ve tasted.

Angela Maicki

Always a great energy & environment. Their patio on a nice day is awesome. I’ve had dinner here multiple times and it’s always great. We recently had brunch and it was delicious. They have limited vegetarian/gluten free options but are willing to omit ingredients when needed.

Craig Gunderson

We went here for my wife's birthday. She has a gluten intolerance and other food allergies and the staff was extremely accommodating. The food was absolutely spectacular and the portions very generous. Our pasta came out so fast, we were shocked. I make my own espresso at home, but I am telling you the double they served me was the most luxurious thing I could imagine. I took a star off the atmosphere for a slight swampy smell. This may be from winter plumbing issues, but it was noticeable. Otherwise it was cozy and comfortable.

Kya Qvale

I really wanted to love this place! The staff was super friendly and the atmosphere was great. However, my fiancée and I were pretty disappointed with the vegan and gluten-free cheese pizza. For over $20, we definitely expected more. The cheese wasn’t melted at all, the crust was bland, and there was hardly any sauce, which made the pizza really dry. Neither of us could finish just one slice. Maybe it was just an off night, but based on the reviews mentioning great vegan options, I had higher hopes. I love that more places are offering inclusive menu items, but I think it’s important for restaurants to really taste-test these options before serving them.

If you grew up in a very mixed home, if you've ever gotten lost in a good fantasy books and wondered what it'd be like to get home after a long trip away... to feel invited by a new world that feels just a little too familiar... this is the place to go. I finish every meal with a queso vasca, it's a sweet cheese similar to a Boston cheesecake with a base of caramelized onions. It is a dessert that is best served with the Spanish coffee, the combination gives a sense of belonging... like the cook understands everything you've been through and wants you to know that it's okay, that they understand. The food here is always very good, the service is equally worth while. Please, if you have doubts about this place just set them aside and take some time to enjoy the magic that is the food here. Get lost in a fantasy, come home, feel the joy of belonging. The majority of the food is gluten free too.

Eleasa McKinney

10/10 one of the best places I’ve eaten! Everyone there was friendly and the food was great, and especially entertaining if you get something spicy that your friends aren’t used to and have them try it. Not only loved their different meals, along with the fact that you could get a majority of them gluten free and vegetarian which is amazing, but all the drinks they had to choose from were great as well. I would recommend it to anyone looking for something quick and good, especially the tteokbokki!

Leah D

Came here for early dinner last night on a cold blustery day! Delish. Lifted our spirits. I loved that there was some low carb & gluten free options. Loved the addition of microgreens 😋 Study the menu in advance because there’s a lot of different options! Thank you so much for great hospitality.

mary hodur

Excellent food, as always, with scrumptiousgluten free options. The gluten free chicken and lamb shwarma dinners are both quite tasty. They give a choice of rice, so I tried both rice mixtures, and the dinner was enough for two meals. Their hummus is the best I've had, as is their lentil soup. The salad bar offers so many authentic foods to sample, also. Ooh, don't forget the sauce: the red, spicy sauce and the white sauce. They compliment the food nicely! In the warmer weather, the location on North Ave also has an outdoor patio. This is a great, low stress, easy on the budget option for lunch or dinner...or both!

Lizzy Tenison

Pizza was delish! Has gluten free options which is fantastic. Reasonable pricing!

Naina Khanna

Wonderful neighborhood brunch restaurant! The staff is friendly and the food is delicious. They were very mindful of food allergies and offer gluten free bread too!

My friend and I came here to eat brunch, it took us a while to find the entrance because it was hidden. But it’s not that bad because it’s super easy to locate once you walk inside. When we got in, we were greeted by staff and got to our table really quickly. The service was pretty fast and nice. One of the servers was even telling us jokes, which was super sweet of them. The waiter is also knowledgeable about the menu (my friend has a gluten free diet), so he was able to help my friend find a gluten free option. The food was super good, I really loved the French toast and the portion they give is big as well. Definitely a good atmosphere to the area and loved it a lot.

mary hodur

Went for a dinner and a brunch. Both were very good. Their gluten free substitutions were tasty, and the rest of their food and drink were very good. The potatoes at brunch were quite unique and tasty! The roasted vegetabl dinner was the highlight of the meal. The service was very good...a bit slow during brunch, but not enough to ruin the meal!

One of my friend was gluten allergies.. They take care well for allergies. The waitress was sooo soo nice and explain everything .. Highly recommended ... This is the top rated Indian restaurant in Chicago . We will be back soon ....

rebecca mckinney

Really enjoyed the experience here :) I had the burnt ends hash and it was probably one of the best breakfasts I have ever had. I ordered with corn tortillas instead of toast because I can’t have gluten, and the tortillas were incredible. Our server was also very helpful with directing me to menu items that could be accommodated to be gluten free!

Daian Canelon

Excellent service, I loved the dedication of the cooks to take care of our gluten free order. I highly recommend it

Angela Reilly

Irish Nobleman is the Chicago neighborhood bar everyone wants! Drinks great, food great and consistent including gluten free options, and we just love it. Whether it’s popping in for mimosas or for dinner and cocktails, we come here year round. (And we love Sean who is often our waiter, such a gem). Highly recommend and feel lucky to have it be in my neighborhood.

Aaron Greer

I hosted my wife’s 30th surprise party at Barcocina in west town. They were very helpful with getting me all the information I needed in a timely manner from start to finish! Our guest loved the ambiance in the event room with the 2fire places as well. The guest also loved each and every taco tray I order. I had purchased the steak,mahi mahi and bangbang shrimp. They were mostly gluten free which also was a plus because one of our guest can’t have gluten. But I want to thank Desi the event planner for helping and answering any questions I had. I highly recommend having a party at this location

Fast, friendly, very good breakfasts, hot and delicious coffee. The best breakfast in the area. There are many gluten-free dishes.

lauren gordon-fahn

Old school clean warm welcoming vibe. Best gluten-free hand made pasta I have had in my 25 years of being gluten-free. I had the shrimp diavolo, so many shrimp great rich flavor!

Jennifer Paruch

Everything was great, but please provide gluten free options

D

Pretty decent gluten-free pizza! Just wished they added more cheese on it.

Mike Idalski

My office ordered Lil Greek Kitchen for one of our catered lunches, and it was delicious. The Gyro and Greek Potatoes were a big hit. Additionally, Adam was very attentive to our order and helped to craft options for our Gluten-Free and Vegetarian/Vegan employees.

Jane Wilberding

Super cute neighborhood spot with amazing food. Feels like a hidden gem. I have celiac and the staff went out of their way to alter several dishes to accommodate me that were incredibly delicious and had zero cross contamination.

Charlie Clough

Love this place. I wish they had gluten free bagels for my girlfriend though!
