Top 38 Gluten-Free Spots to Enjoy Outdoor Dining in Surprise

Steve Spivey

Outstanding!! Super cute ambiance and excellent service. We went with a larger group (reservations recommended) and we tried about 40% of the menu. Everything was delicious! The Chef came to check on us…she is celiac and confirmed that the fryer is safe and most dishes can be made celiac safe with GF bread, separate utensils, etc. We also tried a few drinks on the menu, all were imaginative and tasty. Cannot recommend this local, small business enough. 💜

Vibes are great, staff is always friendly, and the food is always good. Can’t say much more other than that you guys in-store are appreciated. Good gluten free and vegan options too - wish they had more!

You have to go!! The restaurant is adorable! It's so friendly and inviting! You feel like your family as soon as you walk through the door! The coffee is amazing! I enjoy a good coffee and this is hands down the best! They also have so many options for gluten and dairy free individuals! Oh, and their pastries! Delicious! They'll even heat it up for you! Gluten free, dairy free, nut free - no problem, they got you covered! I will 100% be back any time I'm on that side of town!

Great food and gluten-free options. A little pricey for breakfast / lunch. Long waits to get a table

WHERE DO I START??? ORDERED A SMASH AVOCADO CHEESE BURGER (SWISS) ON THE SIDE, GLUTEN FREE BUN, SWEET POTATO FRIES, WITH CAMPFIRE SAUCE. SPLIT AS MY WIFE AND I WERE SHARING. WHICH THE KITCHEN DID. WHEN WE GOT OUR DINNER (20MIN. LATER) THE BURGER AND FRIES WHERE COLD! NO CHEESE AND NO CAMPFIRE SAUCE. FLAGGED DOWN THE WAITER (ZACHERY) AND TOLD HIM. HE HAD TO MAKE TWO TRIPS BACK TO THE KITCHEN TO GET OUR ONE CAMPFIRE SAUCE. THEN WENT BACK TO THE KITCHEN TO GET OUR CHEESE (PEPPER JACK?) IT WAS NOT SWISS, LIKE I ORDERED!!!! WHAT KIND OF TRAINING DO THESE SERVERS GO THROUGH? NOTE: THIS WAS ON A THURSDAY NIGHT AT 5PM AND THE RESTAURANT WAS ALMOST EMPTY. IF THIS HAD BEEN A SATURDAY NIGHT, I WONDER HOW MUCH FREE FOOD WAS THE MANAGER GIVEN OUT FOR SUCH SERVICE. THE LADY MANAGER ON DUTY CAME OUT AND OFFERED US A FREE BURGER AND EXTRA FRIES AND DRINKS. WHICH WE RELUCTANTLY ACCEPTED. WHEN I PRINTED OUT THE RECEIPT IT WAS BLANK. NOTHING PRINTED. ZACHERY WENT BACK TO GIVE ME A PRINTED RECEIPT. I MENTIONED TO HIM THAT HE POSSIBLY NEEDS TO BE RETRAINED, HE THEN TOLD ME THAT I WAS THE WORSE CUSTOMER HE HAS EVER WAITED ON. REALLY!!!! ALL I WANTED WAS WHAT I ORDERED IN A REASONABLE TIME. IS THAT TOO MUCH TOO ASK? THE LADY MANAGER ON DUTY GAVE US WHAT WE ORDERED TO TAKE HOME. I WAS NOT ASKING FOR ANYTHING FREE, I JUST WANTED WHAT I ORDERED IN A TIMELY MANNER. I CAN ONLY SAY IF I OWNED THIS FRANCHISE, I WOULD BE TRAINING OR RE-TRAINING SOME FOLKS. IT IS NOT PROFITABLE TO GIVE AWAY FREE FOOD FOR INEXCUSABLE SERVICE AND COLD FOOD! MY WIFE AND I HAVE BEEN TO NUMEROUS RED ROBIN RESTAURANTS AND THIS IS THE WORSE!!!! THE RED ROBIN IN TEMPE IS PERFECT. WE NEVER HAVE HAD A PROBLEM THERE. FOOD IS HOT AND SERVICE IS GREAT. MAYBE THE SURPRISE RESTAURANT CAN LEARN SOMETHING FROM THEM. I HOPE SO. WELL, THERE YOU HAVE IT. GOOD LUCK IF YOU GO TO THE RED ROBIN IN SURPRISE, AZ. IT’S LIKE A BOX OF CHOCOLATES. YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU WILL GET. THIS SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN. ☹

We come here often as they have a variety of yummy Gluten Free options. Kitchen staff are accommodating on special requests. Staff are friendly and helpful to guests and other staff members. Restaurant is very clean. We like the outdoor shaded patio.

Catherine Roland-Weyland

They do a great job if you need your food gluten free food!!!

Karen Vigeveno

One of the best places to find healthy Gluten-free food!

Norma

Ordered chicken Alfredo with gluten free pasta and broccoli but didn’t get the broccoli with my order. Everything else was good.

Mark Sumstine

Stopped here with out of town relatives. They loved the food and the gluten free choices were great. Server was lovely in anticipating needs without being a pest. We will return.

Laurie Laws

Celiac friendly food . Delicious food!

Marianne Kleminski

Helped me with my gluten allergies. Very good.

Tek Projekt

Good gluten free options. I had gluten free pasta with wine butter sauce, tomato and garlic. It was very good

Tanya

We celebrated a birthday here and had a fantastic time! Alexis was incredibly attentive and helpful, especially with answering our questions and accommodating my dietary restrictions. As someone who has worked in hospitality for years, this is exactly the kind of thoughtful, high-level service I always hope to receive. The food was amazing—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The menu is diverse, with plenty of gluten free and vegetarian options, which made it easy for everyone in our party to find something they loved. While we waited for our table, we sampled a few wines and were blown away by the fruit wines—the blueberry was especially delicious! Highly recommend this spot for a special occasion or a casual night out. We’ll definitely be back!

Stopped in after seeing gluten free bread available on their menu, and the sandwiches were great! The bread wasn’t crumbly or hard, it was very soft and tasted great. The cheddar brisket and bacon ranch were both fantastic on the bread. What made this location even better was having the opportunity to meet the owner while my son and I waited for our food! He showed us the various photos and memorabilia on the wall (with much of it coming from here in surprise, including the photos), and told the story behind so much of what’s on display. He even let my son hold the helmets from London! It was both humbling and a pleasure to have the experience. We will absolutely be back thanks to the great food, but even better people!

Heather was so rude, lazy, ignorant, and incompetent. I asked for gluten free blueberry pancakes and she refused to serve me. My husband and I went back and forth with her 3 times. When we asked for a manager she said there was not one on sight. This all happened January 14th 2025 at around 10pm. Finally Aryanna stepped in and assisted. While she was assisting us Heather kept eaves dropping then proceeded to say blueberries have wheat in them. NO THEY DON'T! THEY ARE A FRUIT. Aryanna was so kind in assisting us. Aryanna was able to accommodate us with our order.

Tokyo Joe's is an healthy alternative to fast food take-out. They also offer a range of fresh veggies and gluten-free items for their build a bowl design. It's a healthier option for those who want it.

Becky Newman

Best pizza in Arizona! This pizza is a midwesterners dream! Being from Ohio, I always enjoys a good hearty crust, great flavor and the perfect pepperoni that curls up and gets crisp! The gluten feee crust is on point and so very good! We keep coming back for more! Even great cold, which is a hard thing for pizza companies to accomplish!! Well Done Mountain Mikes!! 👏🏼👏🏼

Ashleigh Bates

My husband and I have come here a few times now and we have enjoyed it. They are limited in gluten free options but they do have a cauliflower pizza and I'm pretty picky when it comes to my pizza but it was delicious! They have lots of different drinks and beers to choose from so there's definitely something for everyone. As my husband doesn't have dietary restrictions such as I do, he says they have delicious food! He's had pizza, a sandwich, and other stuff in the past and says they are all delicious! I would definitely recommend it if you're in the area!

Alison Fischer

I live in So Cal. I have family in Surprise and El Mirage. Every time I go out to visit them, I have to eat here. I have to eat gluten free so I have to get my gluten free chicken enchilada stack. It is the best! I always get excellent service, Andy is my favorite server. Last week I had Jessica and she was awesome! Don't ever change the recipe for the chicken enchilada stack and Andy and Jessica, you guys are awesome!

Randy P

I ordered a burger with a gluten free bun. I was impressed that the bun comes separate from the burger and fixings. The bun is warm and soft and good and If you've ever had gluten-free bun you know that would be a good one.

Grace Jarger

Food was phenomenal and accommodating for my gluten free needs. Staff were great! The Tuesday night date night special is awesome! Highly recommend. Drinks are tasty and STRONG! Worth every penny.

layla fizz

victoria was amazing!! super attentive and very nice! the food is wonderful and very tasty! they have a bunch of different vegan and gluten free options as well

Denise Carlquist

Batista Klaire was amazing and personable. Love the gluten-free banana 🍌 bread! The new frozen fuel....I think tastes better.

Dr. Melanie RestorativeTravels

Get your gluten-free buzz here! 2nd visit today. Last week just a coffee. This time, I decided to try breakfast. (I'm still sitting here). I just finished the Chili Crunch Breakfast Wrap. I forgot to ask if it includes a free-range egg like the Better Breakfast, so I'm hoping that's what I ate. I swapped out the whole wheat tortilla with gluten-free toast. Not bad! I could've done without the carbs but needed the energy today. The medium roast coffee...not so good. It tastes too bitter. 1130am on a Sunday...busy. There are a few tables inside, but all were dirty, and the two I tried were unstable, so a full cuppa coffee would rock around. A staff member came over to wipe down my table upon request (it was real dirty), but she passed over three other dirty tables. Staff is young, energetic, and friendly, but this place looks like they are still getting their flow refined. They have a rewards program, so signing up on your first pircbase gets you a free coffee. I like the energetic vibe. Love the music. However, it could be loud for some people. This is not the place for contemplative coffee moments. It's a nice alternative for me when I want an uplifting coffee break. Definitely better than Starbucks.

Christina Harris

Decent good. Good gluten feee english muffins. Prices ouch $ 44 for 2 people.

Natalia Orozco

Did not have any of the gluten free options they claimed to have.

Brian W

Picked up food for the grandkids. They loved it. Wish they had a gluten free bun option. Cheese fries were great!

Darrell Burton

Asked if they had a gluten free bun and they did. Had a hamburger and a small salad.

Gina Murrow

The flavor of the meat tasted like excellent street bbq. I ordered the bowl and the balance of rice/beans to meat and vegetables was pleasing. The fajita veggies on top were a bit over cooked but they acted like a flavorful salsa. I’m gluten intolerant and found the bowl easy to digest. Note: other gluten items are prepared in the same kitchen. Didn’t affect me but might someone who is keenly sensitive. Food was delicious and filling. Everyone in my party liked the dish they ordered. I’d definitely go there again.

Tivoli Gardens is a cozy family type restaurant that offers reasonably priced comfort foods with an emphasis on some Italian specialty dishes. My dining companion and I arrived early for a Sunday dinner. While they did not seem to have a gluten free menu, the server was more than helpful in communicating to the kitchen that I did not want aus jus sauce on my prime rib, no bread and no croutons on my dinner salad. My companion ordered their signature Tivoli pasta dish with sausage and the soup of the day. The large pasta portion was more than he could consume and quite tasty. The only distraction was the noise level was a bit uncomfortable for a casual conversation which seems to be the norm in many restaurants. We really enjoyed our meal and the excellent service.

Gabriel McIver

Came in during a dust storm and lightning storm close to closing time. Even with all that the staff was friendly, and inviting and took great care of us. Plus it's gluten free....

Samira R.

Gluten free cupcake and cotton candy lemonade was a win for the little . Very kind , warm and inviting energy . :)

Erika

I like the vibe, the food and the ambiance. It doesn't have many gluten free options but it's a steakhouse so it's easy to to stick to the proteins to avoid gluten.

caroline alvarez

Wish I got pictures but will next time. Food was amazing! Everything was extremely fresh, the chef was able to make quesadillas with corn tortillas since i cant have gluten and they were amazing! The staff was super friendly and the place is cute. This is a mom and pop shop but definitely a hidden gem 💎. Can't wait to go back!

Bevan Wright (Beans)

This place was awesome! They had really nice staff and this really nice server. The gluten-free food was especially wonderful. A place you must try!

Debbi Grimm

Logan was our server and she was amazing! Efficient, friendly and made us feel welcome and comfortable. She’s a natural! Great happy hour! (See photo) There were 4 of us and we ordered the flautas, empanadas, nachoitos and 2x ribs. Perfect portion size for us to all leave satisfied. Note: “ribs” are street corn cut in 4 and were our favourite. Since corn tortillas were used for everything, it was all gluten-friendly. Great atmosphere. Spacious, comfortable with big windows that are rolled open when weather permits.

Kathleen Pease

Five Guys burgers are always good, I do wish they had a gluten free bun.
