Top 34 Gluten-Free Lunch Spots Across Naperville

Ashley Stillwell

I was highly impressed with this restaurant. If I could give more than 5 stars for service I would! We looked up reviews on this place and had chosen it because two of our road-trip party are celiac and we also have other allergies (soy and peanuts). The reviews reported that they dealt with that situation well. We were NOT disappointed. We explained our allergies and our server diligently ran back and forth to check with the kitchen. When we accidentally ordered something that included an allergy ingredient, she came out and let us know and gave us an alternative that would be safe for us. The chef actually made two of the meals from scratch so that it would be safe. All three meals were incredible! Hats off to the wonderful chef and server!

Make a reservation! Always busy. Adorable outdoor patio. Gluten Free menu. Shared the gluten free baked Ziti and a gluten free pizza. Food and drinks were amazing!

Joanne Gresh

Best place around for gluten free food. Not too many restaurants can pull this off but they do....

11/10! Their servers were excellent, particularly Carter who was attentive and so friendly to our group. They had the biggest gluten free menu I've ever seen, although I would have liked for vegetarian/vegan-possible options to have been marked. The food was absolutely scrumptious and very fresh, even the fruit. Can't wait to be back!

First visit. Went on a Saturday at 1 ( they close at 2:30) put our names on waitlist online so hardly any wait. Lots of choices for many different diets- vegetarian, gluten free, etc. It was busy so it was quite loud but I guess that’s unavoidable. Prices are high. You can see them online. 3 of us ate breakfast, 2 coffees, 1 soda, and 2 biscuit appetizers- $125 with tip. Our waitress was great except our food was given to us by someone else and we asked them for butter (none was brought with pancakes) and extra syrup but never got it. Tried to get the guys attention to no luck and finally flagged our waitress down. Overall a fine breakfast with solid choices but in my opinion not worth the cost.

Our favorite gluten free place!

Setareh Kaikavousi

Great food and service. The small pasta plate option is great. Some great choices on drink menu with reasonable pricing. They also have a separate gluten free menu.

Melissa Windover

Great gluten free options!

Jake Bamberg

Tia was an excellent waitress! She was very helpful with my wife’s gluten allergy!

Ally

Beautiful restaurant, great service, and everyone is so fast and so kind I always enjoy my time here and it is so delicious so many options for vegan, gluten free, vegetarian, and many other diet types! I love how versatile the menu is as well as how unique it is! It is certainly not your average sushi, it’s better!

Katie Smith

High quality, fully made from scratch, great presentation menu. Amazing cocktails and amazing service! This place thinks of all the little things to provide platinum service such as transferring your martini into a new, cold martini glass to keep it fresh and chiller. Restaurant also has a separate Gluten Free Menu that is 100% guaranteed by the Celiac Disease Foundation. The desert is to die for. White Chocolate Bread Pudding… YUM!

Christina Muco

So thankful for Lou’s gluten free deep dish pizzas! Seriously the best!

Lisa Doudalis

It was my first time at Vasili’s and it was a GREAT experience!!! Bianca was a phenomanal waitress, I told her about my gluten allergy and she was supper accommodating!!!! She informed me about what was and was not gluten free on the menu and told me they had GF bread. She also brought me a lemon sorbet for dessert knowing I couldn’t have anything that was on the menu!!! Amazing first time there, definitely going back!!!

Rebecca Luginbill

They went above and beyond to help me have safe gluten free food at our company Christmas Lunch.

Hope Manning

Amazing food, drinks, and atmosphere. Had gluten friendly options.

Emily Rubio

Fogo De Chao is one of my favorite places to go as a Celiac! They are extremely knowledgeable about what I can and cannot have. 90% of the food is gluten free. The corn is my favorite on the salad bar and for meats - chicken is always my favorite since I don't eat red meat. Our servers this Christmas were Emanuel, Tim, and Haret! They did a wonderful job with all of us and explained everything very well. My kids even enjoyed! Cheers and Merry Christmas! We'll definitely be back.

Keith Garstecki

I would consider Jason’s Deli a step above fast food. Some healthy options and gluten free options if necessary.

James Wallbank

A hidden gem! This cafe only has a frontage about 6ft wide, but do not be put off! They have both vegan and gluten free menus, which shows attention to detail, and the Mexican Vegan Skillet is fantastic—seriously—the non-egg eggs are fluffy perfection. Good vibes, surprisingly spacious, immaculately clean, nice waitresses. A real family business.

Joseph Heinen

Unreal gluten free pizza. Best we've ever had

Tangelo Dreams

I eat gluten free pizza here is too bland for my taste..

Linda Thompson

Good service, however I ordered a gluten free waffle which was NOT gluten free! Food allergies and sensitives are serious. . .

J B

Our server was very informed about Celiac and cross contamination and I felt a lot of confidence eating here needing to be gluten free. The food and drinks were delicious and the atmosphere was very cool, we'll definitely be coming back here! Great to have this resource for eating safely gluten free downtown.

John Fallon

Meson Sabika is a wonderful restaurant! The people, ambience, and food are all fabulous. My family visited for my wife's birthday with our 3 children (17, 14 and 10) and everyone loved it. The restaurant is just outside downtown Naperville and it looks like an old colonial mansion on a nicely landscaped lot. There are several different rooms throughout the building with seating. It's a very homey and warm feeling. We shared 7 or 8 plates, most of them gluten free due to dietary restrictions (solomillos a la plancha, chuletas de cordero, gambas a la plancha, patatas con aioli, salpicon de mariscos, jamon serrano, queso de cabra) and we liked every dish. Our server, Hilary, was very friendly, knowledgeable, and always seemed to know the right time to swing by. I highly recommend Meson Sabika!

Jeremy McKean

We had a great experience here. We had friends in town from all over, and 12 of us wanted to find a place we could get into for dinner together. Donny was engaging and friendly on the phone when I made the reservation. When we showed up for dinner the table was ready and Donny came over multiple times to check and make sure everything met our expectations. The service was friendly and efficient, everyone loved their meals, and the bang for the buck feels high here. Out of our party of 12, 10 people had never been to a Francesca's, and everyone made positive comments over the next few days about how great everything was. I had the Pollo Arrosto Alla Romana. It was delicious and cooked perfectly. We will be back, and definitely recommend it for groups. Good variety on the menu, nice gluten free options (not always easy at an Italian restaurant), and the service was phenomenal.

Olivia Palak

Always a great time. Good for people who are celiac-special and separate fryer! Good service and yummy wine!!!

Daniel & Donna Glembot

This place rocks. Our server was very attentive and professional. The food was fantastic. Exactly what you expect at a Chef Ramsey restaurant. My wife has celiac, and the staff clearly knew exactly how to prepare, handle, and manage her food.

Lynn Flynn

Good food, good service, gluten-free options, but a little too noisy. Parking lot very crowded on a weekday.

Anne Bielski

Great options for gluten-free. Delicious food!

Debbie Kovalsky

I’ve had a few of your bowls they are delicious, a healthy treat, and gluten free! Allie is warm and friendly and very knowledgeable about the ingredients and variety of bowls. Emma was also friendly and made a great buoy bowl today.

sowmith daram

Love the unlimited toppings and gluten free crust options. I have been to this place multiple times. I always liked how customers are treated and how good the food tastes. And very reasonable price. If we can't decide a place for food we just go to Mod! Highly recommend it.

Maya Quijada

I was absolutely thrilled by my experience at Indian Harvest. I was blown away by all of the dishes, the presentation of the food, the atmosphere - everything! The whole staff was very kind and friendly. Our waitress was incredibly attentive and also respectful. The food was truly a delight. The booths are very beautiful and private. The wine and cocktail lists were thoughtful and original. My wine was affordable and delicious! It can be tricky to find a restaurant to go that pleases both me and my sister, since I eat everything and my sister has sensitivities to dairy, gluten, and sugar that make eating at a restaurant challenging and sometimes straight up painful! They have a very clear menu with MANY nut free / vegan / gluten free options. And everything was outstanding. Thank you for your amazing hospitality! You are a gem - I would give more than 5 stars if I could!

Allison Hostetler

Gluten free/Celiac disease friendly! Have never gotten ill, and the food is delicious! Very friendly staff.

Brian Kaminski

Had my lunch at Gia Mia today (7/21) with family. The service was very good, my server was very attentive. The resturant has plenty outdoor seating as well as indoor seating. I had the Ham Maker 6” pizza w/ a ceasar salad that was off their daily specials menu. They do have appitizers but not on the main menu or the dail specials menu. I tried the prosciutto.on bread. Couple slices of prosciutto drizzled with balsomic vinegar. It was pretty good. Next I tried their version of “garlic bread. It was pretty disappointing since all it was just pizza crust drizzled with olive oil, no taste of garlic. The pizza was delish! The crust wasn’t over baked and it was soft, the sauce was very good. No complaints from the family. They do offer gluten free items for a few bucks more.

Sarah Phenia

Gluten-free Limon-blue pancakes are amazing!! It was not super sweet, which is perfect. Such friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Tom

Grabbed an iced caramel latte and a cold brew with oat. The latte tasted VERY strongly of burnt coffee. The cold brew was OK. Food options for GF/Celiac's folks are rough here. The gluten-free toast is definitely Naperville-priced (for those not familiar with their 'burbs, I'm trying to say the pricing was somewhere between "ouch" and "boing!" [For those not familiar with a classic "White Christmas" reference, I'm saying it's expensive]). Butters tastes good though - not worth the price of admission, but tasty nonetheless.

Mac Liveakos

Best vegan/gluten free pizza I’ve had. Ever. Staff is nice and helpful.

Olivia Palak

Sebastian, Riley, the general manager, and kitchen staff went over and beyond. Being celiac it’s always scary going out to eat. I spoke to Sebastian ahead of time and they really went over and beyond for me. Riley and Sebastian spoke to the kitchen staff several times to ensure there would be no cross contamination with my food. I couldn’t be more thankful and grateful-you have no idea how much this means. I didn’t get sick!!!! I had tacos. And they were delightful. Ambiance is always great-love the plants. This is a safe place for celiacs to come, just do your part as well to help the staff. Thank you!!!!!!!!! I’ll come back. And the cocktails are always so yummy. Thank you.

LJ P

There were only a handful of items that were not GLUTEN FREE, so I was able to eat there safely and did not get sick. They have a list of items at the register and can tell you what’s not safe. It was very yummy! I got the shish kabob chicken, rice, and falafels.

Nancy Richards

Yummy. Shared the grilled platter and the Sea Bass with my daughter. Sea Bass was melt-in- your-mouth delicious. Dedicated Gluten Free menu. Has Gluten Free table bread.

Mary Rachford

Loved all our meals from this fantastic Italian restaurant. Kim is an excellent hostess and Colleen is a wonderful server. Highly recommend the salmon salad and tilapia piccata, they also have a wonderful gluten free menu!!

Phyllis Oladipo

I just so happen to be in the area and had a desire for pizza. Giordanos is my favorite pizza restaurant so I called my order in and dined in. The manager & his team were very professional, the gluten free pizza & salad was superb I’ll be back! Phyllis O- owner of the Hands of love beauty and wellness spa- Chicago

Shay R

Still the same as I remember from 20 years ago. Food was decent, service left much to be desired, and prices were fair. Happy to see that they have added GF pancakes as my son has Celiac and he said they were really good.

Joseph Johnson

Overall the food was good. They have Gluten Free 12" Pizzas ($16-17) which are good but pricey. If you like a thicker crust get the house crust. The service was quite bad overall with a couple bright spots. When we arrived we were the only ones in the dining area. By the time we left it was full. It's a smaller dining area than most restaurants but the waitress was pretty much non-existent. Drinks ran dry and she messed up an appetizer order. I chalk it up to being young and inexperienced..A lady from the back area, maybe the bar area came around to help and was fantastic. The parking lot is terrible and gets crazy full Friday nights so park in the second row or further if you don't want to feel like you're leaving a concert after dinner. Overall 7/10.

Carolyn Young

Placed an online order for a VEGAN roll for me and a Stromboli with vegetarian sausage for my husband yesterday . Order information: 3/12 order #94. Upon arriving my order wasn’t ready and was told it would take approximately 5 mins. While waiting I observed the employees laughing, joking with one another and of course working. I thought, this must be a fun place to work. I specifically mentioned VEGAN in my order 3 times AND stated I have a dairy allergy. So imagine my disappointment after arriving home, settling in for the night, opening the box to cut a piece, reheat it, take it out of the oven and I see cheese oooozing out of the roll!!!!!!! It’s been a while since I’ve eaten here because the rolls are pricy. But thought I would splurge a little on dinner tonight. Needless to say, I will not be returning any time soon or ever. I figure my money is well spent at the grocery store buying the ingredients and making my own roll than coming here and having to recover from exposure to dairy and meat. I spoke to the manager Brad and he refunded me the cost of the vegan roll only; however, that covers their mistake. It does not cover the inconvenience of me having to figure out my dinner, my time, their ability to get it right the FIRST TIME, and the stain of my confidence in the company to take allergies and dietary restrictions seriously. Perhaps your employees need more training. As all employees should know the difference between Vegan, Vegetarian, gluten free and egg allergens when working with food since people can actually die if they get it wrong!!! Or maybe that group does not need to work together again if they can’t get orders correct and have fun at the same time.

Steve Hirner

We dine here often, and we enjoy the ambience, the food, the wine, and the service every time. My wife is gluten-free and all their pasta can be either GF or whole wheat by request. I recently have enjoyed their pork belly dish as well as their chicken saltimbocca...delish!! This is a go-to place for us to unwind with a glass of red wine and yummy Italian food!

Schlotzsky’s is a restaurant that truly stands out in the world of fast-casual dining, offering a variety of delicious meals that cater to different tastes and preferences. I recently visited one of their locations and was thoroughly impressed with both the quality of the food and the overall dining experience. From the moment I walked in, I could tell that Schlotzsky’s takes pride in providing a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The staff greeted me with friendly smiles, and the restaurant itself was clean and well-maintained, setting a positive tone for the meal ahead. One of the highlights of my visit was the famous “Original” sandwich. This signature dish did not disappoint. The sourdough bread was perfectly toasted, giving it a satisfying crunch, while the combination of meats, cheese, and fresh vegetables inside made for a truly flavorful experience. The sandwich had the perfect balance of savory and tangy flavors, and the generous portion size left me feeling completely satisfied. It’s easy to see why this has become Schlotzsky’s hallmark item, and it certainly lived up to the hype. In addition to the standout sandwiches, Schlotzsky’s offers a wide range of other menu options, all of which look equally tempting. I decided to try their fresh, crisp salad, which was loaded with high-quality ingredients like ripe tomatoes, cucumbers, and a flavorful dressing. It was the perfect complement to the sandwich, offering a refreshing contrast in texture and taste. I also appreciated the fact that Schlotzsky’s offers gluten-free and vegetarian options, making it a versatile choice for anyone with dietary restrictions. The service was another aspect that truly made my visit enjoyable. The staff was attentive and efficient, ensuring that my food arrived quickly without feeling rushed. The restaurant had a relaxed, casual vibe, which made it the ideal place for a laid-back meal. I also appreciated that Schlotzsky’s provides

Their Gluten Free Pizza is better the Giordano's Gluten Free Pizza 😋❤️🍕

Grace Reason

I usually love Buona but this location is a joke. Who tries to serve a warm milkshake??? When I called to complain about issues with our order, the manager immediately placed us on hold for 5+ minutes only to be rude and unwilling to help with the issue. I’ve been a frequent customer of Buona because they have gluten free options, but I will NEVER be visiting this location again after the awful experience. Shout out to the manager for trying to gaslight me into believing that the adult gluten free pizza should be less than 5inches (the children’s size)!

Grant Hubert

The staff here are always super nice. We always get a hello from the manager and they’re just super sweet. Like their sweet tea! Can’t go wrong with anything on this menu. They have gluten free bread, too!

Double D Reviews

We've been interested in visiting Vais for a while now so we decided to celebrate our anniversary here. We were not disappointed. First off our server, Nicole, was terrific. She was very personable, very friendly, and very sweet. We always have a more difficult time dining due to my wife being gluten free, however, it was no issue here. They had a plethora of gluten free options and my wife raved about her dish several times. My dish was the vodka cavatappi with shrimp and it was spectacular. I highly recommend. The one and only complaint was that the garlic bread was too hard. I legitimately thought I might break a tooth on it. Still, not enough to dissuade me from giving them 5 stars. We'll definitely be returning for another meal and I feel confident we'll be just as satisfied as our first time around.
