When does this place ever get it wrong? As a celiac, I was thrilled to have so many gluten free options. I’m writing this review after having already made quite a few visits, but none of them deserved fewer than 5 stars. I hope for Spinato’s to open a great many more locations, and regularly make this a go-to whenever I’m in the area.

Sara Bishop

I was so impressed with the amount of gluten free options and their knowledge for cross contamination.

Great gluten free options

Luke DJ Live Clark

The cucumber lemonade was incredibly refreshing after a long summer day in a hot worksite. There were many delicious options and plenty of gluten-free substitutions available. The Turkey panini and Brussels salad were perfect. I will definitely be back when I'm in town again for work - I want to try the entire bruschetta menu!

Really enjoyed this Italian restaurant. Good food and drinks we sat in the Bar at a table and the server and bartender were very nice and attentive. I am gluten free and wow the GF Pasta was 😍 amazing. I loved the family style salad and my husbands lasagna was really good too! (I am sorry I don't have my server's name but I have the feeling she has been with them for a long time. The young lady's at the Host stand were also all smiles. Thanks for a great dinner!

We had a lovely time at Snooze A.M. Tempe. We're familiar with the location in Tucson, AZ which has always been a lovely go-to for brunch. The service, food, and atmosphere in Tempe's location was spot on. I mostly appreciate the gluten free options. I never have to think twice about going to Snooze A.M. It's on our list of regular dine-in restaurants.

Got the new gluten free wings , there vary good . Regular wings are always spot on and pizza is delicious!!

It's basically a fast food order when you get there. Then you seat yourself and the person that takes the order brings you your food. Everything else is up to you. I was stupid enough to tip them ahead of time thinking that I was going to receive service. I received a couple of ice with a shot of coffee for $6. $16 for a gluten-free egg and avocado sandwich. $3.99 for a half a bowl of fruit. My daughter ordered a burrito and when she lifted it off of her plate it just dripped grease. I guess some people like it like this but the potatoes are soggy hash browns. Cost $58 for two breakfasts. A burrito, some soft & soggy hash browns with a smoothie and a gluten-free sandwich, iced coffee, with a half a bowl of fruit. $58 Like I said, it's pretty much fast food, with cafe seating. You help yourself

Always so impressed with Ike’s and the staff at this location. Service is always top-tier and the sandwiches are always so delicious. This time I have to give a shout out to Emily, who coordinated with me with so much kindness for my gluten-free order over the phone and accommodated me so much throughout my experience ordering. Emily went above and beyond! Thanks again, Emily! :)

Trent Hamilton

Great food and great service! Staff was very friendly and super helpful. If it is your first time Julissa will help you out! Julissa made sure I got the perfect spicy sauce combo! She also was very helpful with my fiancé who has a gluten allergy. We both are leaving here stuffed and have full to go boxes. Food was delicious and high in protein. We will definitely be back soon!

Dee Dee Estes

Great food!! Love their gluten free options.

Ryan & Erin

Love the cauliflower and gluten-friendly crust options and the unlimited pizza toppings!

Peggy Sanders

I arrived around 2:15 on a Saturday afternoon, and the line was nearly out the door. After about a 45-minute wait, we finally got our food and it was well worth it. The wait times can be hit or miss, but the service is always courteous. The menu offers a great variety: hot dogs, brats, burgers, chicken, gluten-free options, fries, onion rings, and even shakes. Be sure to grab some of their takeaway sauces and don’t skip the vinegar for the fries!

Denise Drake

Food always consistently good. Servers excellent and kind. My go to for a healthy lunch w gluten free options!

Brendan Cornelissen

Great spot for healthy, easy meals! Staff is friendly and food is good. They have many gluten-free options! My favorites are the Raw veggie salad, tuna wrap, and peanut protein bowl!

Clockwork Pizza is one of those rare gems where the menu isn't just food—it’s a statement. You can tell this place was built by people who care about what they’re serving. Their menu is a solid balance of classic comfort and creative flair, with enough customizable options to make both a meat-lover and a gluten-free eater feel like royalty. What stood out to me most? The gluten-free crust. Most spots throw it on the menu just to check a box, but here—it holds its own. It’s flavorful, crisp, and doesn’t feel like a compromise. That tells me they put thought into sourcing and execution. The ingredients are fresh, the sauces are bold without being overpowering, and the toppings are generous. You’re not getting short-changed here. Whether you’re building your own pizza or trying one of their signature styles, you can taste the intention behind every bite. Service? Impeccable. They’re fast, friendly, and they actually know their menu. You ask a question—they have an answer. And the atmosphere is casual but clean. It’s the kind of place you can take a date, a kid, or just yourself when you need a slice of peace. Bottom line—Clockwork Pizza gets it. They respect their craft, respect their customers, and it shows in every detail. Easily one of the best pizza spots in Tempe.

Love board and brew. First time eating at the restaurant I usually order door dash. They have gluten free tortillas and I love the freshness of their ingredients.

Although it states gluten-free under the wings I think I'd have to disagree. And may express some caution to others who can't have gluten. I can't have gluten and after sharing the wing plater my friend and I instantly noticed symptoms of gluten contamination.

Stephanie Ehrbright

We went there for our first time because we were craving pizza and they were open late. They have a large menu, reasonable prices and specials, clean eating area, we played Janga they had available while we waited for our food to come up and the best part was all the staff were awesome. Very polite, friendly, and super responsive. Mike had a pizza, wing, and soda special and I had a calzone the size of my head. We would recommend for your pizza cravings. They have specials for 55+ on Wednesdays and deals on wings for football on Sundays. They also seem to do a lot of sports team fundraising for local teams. They had several kinds of crust for pizzas, including gluten free and keto.

If you're looking for a GF option, I usually take the hamburger without bun (they wrap it in lettuce), the fries are safe, they cook everything aside when you told them you have a gluten allergy or celiac

Sabrina Diaz

ive been a shady park advocate since before 2020. as someone with celiac this was my favorite place to get delicious ramen without harming myself, enjoy outdoor seating or maybe catch a show. coming now in 2025, everything has changed for the worse. while service remains one of the best things about shady, there are limited gluten free options with no more ramen—while still offering gluten free noodles just to not have any broth, protein, or vegetables to eat it with since they bathe everything in soy sauce. i was given overcooked, on the tail end of expiring edamame. im sad this place is no longer a place i can come to.

Adam Miller

A really good burger joint with plenty of options and gluten free buns! The burger was delicious and fries nice and crispy

Laura La Bianca

The GF crepes were good but the prize for a GF crepe is outrageous. The regular Nutella crepe is $9.99, the GF costs $10 more ($19.99) which in my 30 years of being celiac I have never experienced such a big prize difference for a gluten free option. It’s ridiculous and unacceptable.

The bad - Holly (the manager) was very rude and impolite from the get go. When we walked in, she asked how many. We told her and she asked if we could split up. We told her we did not want to and she reacted very negatively and put out by the response. We said we are fine to wait longer and could sit outside. The whole point of eating out is for us to be together and we don’t feel like it was unreasonable for us to not split up. We also had another issue with her. We are from out of state and we’re not aware outside drinks are not allowed in restaurants. She was very rude in telling us and did not really explain anything. She just told us we can’t have outside drinks. We put our drinks away under the table and we’re not drinking from them. We assumed that’s what she meant. However she came back by and said to us, “ I appreciate you trying to hide them, but outside drinks are not allowed.” We were not trying to “hide” anything. The way she said it was so condescending and accusatory. We just had no idea that putting them away was also not allowed. We have no issue following the rules or being corrected, but there is a baseline level of respect/decency that you should give to all people. I understand that people may have a rough day but you should still be kind. Manager should understand this. The good - Our waitress, Rain was incredible. She was so kind and apologetic and really turned our experience around. She made us feel welcome and took great care of us. She even chased us down in the parking lot to give us a forgotten to go box! She really was a highlight of the experience for us. The food was also amazing, it tasted great and the gluten free options were a plus. Portion sizes were also very large and worth it. Overall it is a great place aside from the manager Holly. Reading the reviews, Holly seems to be a recurring issue for people. If they hire more people like Rain and give more coaching on customer service to Holly, it can be an amazing place from all angles.

Hands down the best Acai bowl I've ever had! The Acai base is SO much more unique than any other bowl shop I've been to, and their gluten free cookies are INCREDIBLE!!! 10/10 would try again!

Lucy Grace

One of my favorite coffee shops. The gluten free bagel always hits no matter what I’m getting on it, and the espresso drinks are always smooth and tasty! Really cozy interior as well that I love to sit in.

Melissa Hugo

I love Venezia's, especially because of the delicious gluten free crust here. However, the last time I picked up from this location my pizza was cold, and I picked it up before the scheduled time. The box wasn't even warm like usual when I picked it up. Was disappointing. I gave it a 4 because I have had this in the past. The last visit was subpar.

yet again another place with gluten free options that are CONSTANTLY out of stock. I swear every time I place an order, they notify me that they are out of their gluten free dough. IMAGINE a pizza place running out of dough. I wish they would respect their GF customers enough to be consistent. I’m SO over this trend across the restaurant industry. Do better.

Rob Keeling

First fast food with a gluten free bun.

Joan Belmonte

Andrada Shaw

This restaurant is completely mismanaged. They were unable to properly prepare my online order. I also did NOT get the gluten free bun I PAID for. There was cheese on the other burger & my kid cannot eat cheese. When I went back to ask them to refire or refund my order they were UNABLE to do both. The manager had already left them for the night despite the fact that they were UNDERSTAFFED. The cashier was not trained how to do a refund & there was nobody else there to do it. When I picked up my order the restaurant was NOT busy. In fact it only took them 10 minutes to prepare my order. But they were still unable to follow the written instructions for my order.

Preston Knorowski

The gluten free buns are the best I've had in a long time. Tasted almost like croissants. The cashier's were super nice too.

Judy Ochoa

Big Wave Dave

Didn't have any GF menu items that they thought were 100% safe for celiac but Chuck Norris pizza was good.

Katie M

This is not a real food court… you order at a kiosk and pick it up. There were no gluten free options here today.

Cooper Watkins

This was my first time going to Pokeworks and it was absolutely amazing. The food was good but not even the best part. Ashloddy helped me and my family through all of our dietary restrictions and even used her own knowledge of being gluten free to help us out! She was so helpful and amazing and I am glad she took that time to help us through our meal choices.

Mark Denton

Gluten free HB buns were awful

Tammy Stafford

Met a friend for happy hour. Not too impressed with the bar service. They were not busy, but just busy talking to each other. Brussel sprouts modified with no dairy were good. Kinda soggy. A gluten free bun fell apart while trying to eat. Burger was good, cooked medium and added bacon
