Delicious arepas, celiac / gluten allergy friendly. Whole menu is gluten free!

JA Shaw

Love this place. Highly recommend a reservation. We couldn't get a reservation but got take-out & ate at their picnic tables! Saw many people go in and immediately leave because Sinful Kitchen was full up! Their are allergy aware & have many gluten-free & vegetarian options. Our group had the Monte Cristo, a fav, 2 different kinds of eggs Benedict- classic & crab, strawberry waffles, & corned beef hashvw eggs. I also love the BBQ jackfruit. We are not nearby but try to go at least 2x a yr.

Erica Marinaro

Definitely a dive bar. Menu was clearly labeled GF. The French fries were great!

Jacqueline Loiseau

Amazing spot! The GF IPA was so good we went to buy some at the liquor store after dinner! My husband and I had the burger and pizza and would never guess they were both GF!

Jessi Parker

Gluten-free HEAVEN. Make sure you stop here. You will be so happy you did.

Jacqueline Loiseau

Very knowledgeable staff for allergies. I got the fish tacos and when I asked the waitress about switching the sauce from a dairy one she had an amazing recommendation! The tacos came as a rice bowl for GF and had an allergy notice indicated on my meal. Amazing place!

Domonique

Great service. They have gluten- free lobster rolls! The lobster was okay.

Meredith Reed

Great options if you are gluten free!

Jessi Parker

This was hands down, the BEST fish and chips I have EVER had (even better than London). Highly recommend!

Megan Stowe

It made me so happy to have gluten free fried shrimp and french fries. My husband said his clams were great and the non gf blueberry cornbread was delicious.

Chris Moulton

Service here was amazing! This gluten free bakery has got to be one of the BEST things I have ever had before! The service here is very good and I must say they are really nice employees. I hope to come back to this place over the weekends and even tho it's expensive all it matters is that it's the best in town! Also, thank you for everything you guys do for the brunswick area teen center! I go to the teen center alot and I have some of the granola deserts and I LOVE them alot. I liked the two boston cream donuts and the smores bar I had this morning. Again thank you guys for everything and I can see this business being the best ones in town!

Brad Petersen

Really really great pizza! We tried two gluten free pizzas, the pepperoni hot honey and the chicken bacon ranch. The crust is really good but the highlight was the chicken bacon ranch. Best I've had ever. The location offers beautiful views and the atmosphere was great.

It was very busy when we went in, but all the staff members were kind, friendly, and accommodating. The food is excellent. My husband got coffee, which came in a carafe…very efficient and convenient, thank you. My hot tea came in a smaller carafe/pot, which was obviously only used for tea…so there wasn’t a coffee taste at all (thank you!!). It kept my tea very hot which is also so great. I noted the vegan and gluten free options, which is so wonderful to see. I do not need GF food, but people I care about do…so it is lovely to see it offered. I also enjoy vegan food, though I did not get that this morning (I’m vegetarian, so again, it’s great to see vegetarian/vegan options). Their attention to detail is what made it so great. And the decor in their restrooms/water closets were entertaining lol.

Mike Halcom

If we’re ever this way again will stop. Great gluten free menu. And TASTY. 😋

Barbara Gulino

Great food, great vibes - a wonderful lunch and a really good gluten free bun for the lobster roll! A total win for me!

Rebecca Lo

Delicious vegetarian and gluten free food. Always a challenge to find somewhere that offers both vegetarian and gluten free and Green Elephant delivers. I had the summer rolls, super fresh and light. Then the Thai green curry. Tasted wonderful and also felt healthy. A treat. The chocolate orange mousse cake looked amazing as well. Very nice staff as well. Highly recommend.

Darlene Mccarthy

Great place! Excellent service! Daniel was great and the gluten free options amazing!!!

Yosaku in Portland, ME, is a gem for authentic Japanese cuisine. I've been a patron for the last 8 years, and their Teuchi Soba, a gluten-free noodle made from 100% buckwheat flour, is a must-try. Unlike other soba that often contains wheat, Yosaku's commitment to quality is evident. With new ownership, there's been a subtle shift in taste, yet the restaurant maintains its excellent atmosphere and flavors. Their sushi and sashimi selection is extensive, including weekly specials. If you're lucky, you might even get to try their Otoro. For fish lovers, their Hamachi-Kama (Grilled Yellowtail Collar) is a delight, offered at a very reasonable price but in limited quantities.

Samantha v

they were incredible! I had the best gluten free lobster roll!! and GF firecracker shrimp and sweet potato fries. would highly recommend

CC McGinn

I literally ordered 2 stacks of the blueberry gluten free pancakes and neither survived. And these were not skimpy stacks. They were the perfect treat to have on my birthday. Delicious coffee and so many other yummy pastries and gluten free options! I would go here every morning if I lived in Maine! Absolutely incredible!

Atmosphere, staff, and food were all amazing. We are a gluten free family and usually limited menu choices - Not here! There was a wide variety of gluten free items on the menu! We ordered the fish and chips, fish sandwich, braised short rib, cottage pie, and pickled onion rings. All were amazing! The batter for the fried items is always gluten free and items fried in a separate frier.

Courtney Kelm

Food is excellent! Orange Bike gluten free beer is crisp and refreshing. Gabriela’s smile is refreshing and welcoming. She was kind and offered different beer selections. Very accommodating!

Troy Halm

Great place for Gluten Free options as their batter is gluten free! Super nice people and great food. They offer indoor seating if needed. Their fries are some of the best I've ever had.

David Stock

One of the few seafood places that you can take your gluten intolerant friends! Very good seafood!

Ray Bernoff

As someone with celiac, I felt very taken care of at The Bakeshop! I was excited to see gf focaccia -- a rare treat -- and the cashier Corbin went out of his way to check which of the gf baked goods were oat-free for me. The portions are huge, which is also uncommon for gluten free food. If I lived nearby, I would go here all the time!

Scott Bryant

Unbelievable GF lobster rolls and other seafood options. They take serious care w/ Allergies

Nathan Sawyer

Gourmet gluten free pizza 🍕

Sydney Robinson

Let me start by saying I have Crohn's disease which has led to me needing a gluten free diet/lifestyle. Pizza has been a rocky road ever since going gluten free because nothing has really been worth it. However, this pizza may single-handedly be the best gluten free pizza I've ever had. We helped a friend move into their new home this weekend in Portland and ordered Portland pie co for dinner after we were all done moving. It was the best decision ever. My boyfriend and his friends are all gluten lovers - they got a garlic crust with cheese, pepperoni, caramelized onions, pineapple, and burnt ends and they all LOVED it. Bonus points for the side of hot honey that they drizzled over the pizza. The two gluten free friends in the group (me included) got a pizza with half feta, pepperoni, and broccoli and half feta, pepperoni, caramelized onions, and green peppers. I am so sad my boyfriend and I live in Boston, because this would be a constant place we hit up for pizza. The pizza was nothing short of perfect and may just land as the best place for gluten free pizza in my heart. My boyfriend rates the gluten pizza as a 9.5/10 I would rate the gluten free pizza as a 10/10 easily. We can't wait to return to Portland for more pizza!

Peter L'Esperance

Excellent gluten free seafood

Prasad Ramamoorthy

Really great find in the heart of Bar Harbor. Super considerate about our gluten allergy and vegan preferences. The smoothies here are to die for. Try the PB J smoothie. Loved all the food and the ambience was terrific. Not crowded even during the holiday long weekend.

Vanessa Weeks

Great service and great food! Wonderful gluten free options for Italian food.

Kelsey Babcock

Really nice casual lunch! We ate outside and looked out at the water. I got a lobster roll with old bay fries (delicious!) and my partner enjoyed the fish and chips. All their fried items are gluten free which was super exciting for my partner! Not sure it would work for someone with celiac’s but it was perfect for us.

Daniel Cox

Incredible food and atmosphere. Broad gluten free options, and incredible service by Cassidy B. Thank you!

Robert Cohen, Real Estate

Wild Willy’s Burgers in York, Maine is a must try whenever you are up in this area. The menu is wonderful comfort food and incredibly fresh. With gluten free options, this restaurant is much more inviting than many other places. From March until early November, this is definitely one of our favorite restaurants every time we come up to York, Maine. Enjoy, Robert.

Marz Kay

I’ve gotten glutened here before… I would not try again. (symptomatic celiac)

WilliamN Peach

This is our "go to" Chinese restaurant. Excellent food. Plenty of yummy gluten free options. Great service. Very easy to order. Zen's has been providing us with an exceptional experience since we came to Portland about 5 years ago.

Laura Bea Lamb

I'm almost tempted to move to Maine so I can visit this amazing GF cafe more often! What a treasure! The cinnamon roll was incredible. The sausage roll... Amazing. I bought a whole loaf of GF sourdough bread for $13! My husband bought a couple more goodies for later. Oh, also, the Vietnamese coffee was perfection. The prices were incredibly good for such amazing gluten free goodies. DEFINITELY VISIT!!

Kiera

Not only was the food fresh and the absolute best I've ever had, but their gluten- free selection is elite! My eldest child was able to have a calzone for the first time in their life. The service was friendly and attentive. Overall, we had a top tier, relaxing dining experience. Will definitely be back.

The Mt Katahdin was delicious with a good amount of toppings. A family member was ecstatic to get a gluten free pizza crust AND vegan cheese that actually tasted great! It’s really tough to find places that can accommodate wheat & dairy free. The staff were friendly and helpfully packed extra napkins plus hand wipes for eating on the road.

Levi Ward

The owners are great, not many places around that you find gluten-free food, especially that’s any good. Food is priced within reason for the amount of food you get.

Joseph LaChance

Dedicated Gluten Free Fryer/Kitchens space. Love the Sea Basket!!!

Prasad Ramamoorthy

One of the only places to get healthy GF donuts. Service was amazing and the donuts melted in our mouth. All GF donuts were vegan, made with sweet potato. They had a great collection of different varieties of GF donuts. 100% recommended even for gluten/regular doughnut lovers

A Whit

Outstanding cafe with amazing employees, a great place to hang out with friends, and excellent gluten free options (with allergy-aware staff). We really need more places like Aubrey’s in Southern Maine and the Seacoast.

J Malo

Was very excited to see the large selection of GF items. Was very disappointed to learn that they could not turn on the fryer and the vast majority of items were not available. Also ordered an appetizer of GF stuffed mushrooms that never showed up. I didn't think they were fried, so my guess is the kitchen staff didn't want to be bothered making gluten free items that evening. I got a burger that was just ok. 🤷‍♂️

jennifer billings

All of their fried foods are gluten free!!!! Yay! Game changer for our son.

Jan van Oordt

First time getting food at this establishment. My sister and I are both gluten intolerant so this review really pertains to such consumers. Lots and lots of options- we ordered the Mariner plate for lunch. It was take out so we ate at home. The scallops and shrimps were excellent, the fish was really good. Finding tasty gluten free food can be tough. Our issue was with the French fries. Restaurants that serve gluten free food can sometimes not refresh their oil as often as they would for normal food. That is our guess- the fries had a strong, unusual odour so we both ate only a couple and we both felt unwell afterwards. I would guess that the oil is rancid- everything else was tasty so please folks, switch your oil over for gluten free food more often. Thanks

Alysia Ward

I was very excited to have a gluten-free bun for a lobster roll. Another person at the table loved the lobster poutine. Highly recommend!

Dorothy Towle

My best friend got me a vegan/gluten free carrot cake cupcake. I was a bit skeptical of how this would taste and my husband said there was no way it would be good. WOW were we wrong!! It was amazing! We now can't stop talking about it and want to try everything else they offer. You can tell they really enjoy what they do!

Patty Hall

The staff is always friendly and the food is delicious and VERY gluten friendly!!
