Top 1 Gluten-Free Spots Across Playa del Carmen

Hannah Combs

The BEST Gluten-Free Pizza I’ve Ever Had! This place is an absolute gem! As someone who eats both vegan and gluten-free, finding great pizza can be a challenge—but this spot blew me away. The gluten-free crust was hands down the best I’ve ever had: crispy on the outside, soft inside, and full of flavor. The vegan cheese was incredible—creamy, melty, and made in-house like everything else on the menu. The owners were so warm and welcoming, and even gave us some fantastic local tips for diving in the area. I really appreciated how seriously they took my dietary needs—they were extra careful with my gluten-free order to avoid any cross-contamination, which gave me so much peace of mind. Even my husband, who’s not usually into vegan pizza, devoured his and couldn’t stop raving about how good it was. We’ll absolutely be back to try the empanadas and brownies—this spot is a must-visit!

We had a lovely breakfast here with delicious gluten free options and Jugo verde and were served by the lovely Anthonia. We loved it so much we came again for dinner and was served by Antandio Quiroz who was so lovely ! I would 100% reccomend

Very nice Italian restaurant! Friendly and efficient service. I think the owner knows how to set the mood in the evening! The place is pleasant outdoors. They make gluten-free pasta, so that's nice. The salads, however, aren't amazing.

Panneria had several gluten-free AND vegan cakes. The cakes were quite pricey (160 pesos for one slice), but decent. The iced coffee was pretty bad, but the owner was very friendly. I wouldn’t necessarily come back since it’s so expensive, but it’s great that there are gluten-free vegan options when you’re craving pastries or cake. Also place had a really cute and friendly dog.

Terrible quality service, the girl at the morning counter wins, with a long face, slow service and not good quality. It's a shame because it was one of the few gluten free stores.

I ate there in person 2 weeks ago it was fantastic!!!! I just received my rappi delivery the chicken sandwich has so much salt I can’t eat it. It’s an overwhelming amount. :( the food was so great the first time as a celiac person I was really excited.

If you’re a real pizza lover, I’d suggest giving this place a miss. We ordered two Diavola pizzas, one on a gluten-free base with vegan cheese and one regular. The gluten-free base came at an additional 100 pesos, which is quite steep, but I was curious to try it. Unfortunately, what arrived was more like a 1mm-thin tostada with a small amount of melted vegan cheese, no tomato sauce, and just four slices of what seemed like very basic salami. It really didn’t resemble a pizza in any way and was sent back straight away. Thankfully, we weren’t charged for it, which I appreciated. As for the regular pizza, it wasn’t much better. It looked like something from a very low-end all-inclusive buffet. The tomato sauce was unusually dark and definitely didn’t taste like San Marzano as advertised. The base was flat, undercooked, and lacked any real flavour or texture. On the plus side, the service was excellent. The waiter was kind, attentive, and very apologetic. I really felt for him, as he did his best in a tough situation. As an Italian who has lived abroad for over 20 years, I’ve had pizza in all kinds of settings and don’t consider myself particularly picky. But sadly, this just didn’t come close to what I’d consider pizza, especially at these prices. Piola used to be great years ago, but something seems to have changed. I won’t be returning.

Great place, lots of vegan and gluten free options, really recommend the empanadas they are amazing. A word of warning, the coffee wasn’t great, couldn’t drink it, it was really bad !

Great gluten free pizza. I read from other reviews they only have gluten free pizza on Fridays, so I texted them on WhatsApp to confirm before I went there. Love the atmosphere as well. The only thing is I wish they used fresh pineapple in stead of canned.

I have celiac (strictly gluten-free), and I'm vegetarian. I came here because of multiple reviews that were positive for those with celiac disease, and the restaurant overall had good reviews in general. Unfortunately, I had a pretty poor experience. As vegetarian/gluten-free, the waiter recommended a salad or a warm cauliflower dish in a mole sauce. There was some complimentary pickled vegetables with various sauces and fried tortillas/chips that came out, and the waiter assured me the chips were also gluten-free. I began to eat them, and then they came rushing back later to notify me the chips/fried tortillas were in fact NOT gluten-free. At that point, the dinner was mostly ruined. I ate my main course cauliflower dish which was pretty good, though left the restaurant quickly afterwards. Unfortunately, I did get sick soon afterwards from the food, so I can't give a positive review of the restaurant. The restaurant also just handled it by having the waiter apologize, and then still got charged full price for all the items, and also pressured into giving a tip despite all this. Anyway, definitely not going again.

Gorgeous restaurant and amazing food! Ate here on my birthday while visiting Playa del Carmen and was so magical and delicious! I have celiac (gluten allergy) and the team was incredibly accommodating and knowledgeable on allergies - Highly recommend the tuna steak - it was so delicious! And the restaurant is actually built around a cenote - super cool experience and some of the best food I ate in Mexico!

Thoughtful service, outstanding food, and wonderful atmosphere! Antonio has wonderful recommendations and is highly accommodating of anyone with dietary restrictions (I am celiac gluten free and vegetarian). Many options for starters, mains, and desserts. Get the mango sticky rice!

The food was great! Everything is vegan and they have several gluten-free options. I was also told that some items like the pad thai can be made gluten-free upon request. It’s a bit on the pricier side but the food was really good. Would recommend :)

Melissa Prior

The gluten free pasta was great and Angel was a phenomenal server!

Super service, our waiter was very attentive and the captain was also very attentive to everything. Good food but price quality not so much, still the experience is great and very delicious drinks. Gluten-free options.

Excellent food, service and a very good musical selection, and the price is more than generous compared to the amount of food they give you, and it also has gluten free options. Super recommended
