We have visited Rocco's every year, typically multiple times, that we have visited AZ and thought the pizza was very good. This year was disappointing. My wife's gluten free had a less than satisfactory taste, my regular crust pepperoni/bacon was ok my not up to prior years' experiences. I doubt we will return in the future.

1000/10! If I lived in Tucson, Renee’s would be seeing me ALOT. Lots of Gluten Free options and super yummy! If you’re in Tucson and need a romantic dinner spot this is the one, the vibe was literally perfect!

I came for dinner on Saturday and was sorely disappointed. I ordered a vegan gluten-free pizza with no cheese. A pizza arrived with cheese. Not the end of the world. However, the person who delivered the pizza promptly hurried away without even asking if it was okay, so I waited almost 10 minutes for the server to return. She seemed very busy with outside tables as we barely saw her during the visit. She took the pizza back to be remade and it took almost 15 minutes to be finished. No one checked in or apologized for the order being mixed up. Once the new pizza was dropped off, I was disappointed. Each slice has maybe 2-3 (tiny) vegetables total and it didn’t even have tomato sauce to completely cover the pie. I asked the server for salt because I thought that the pizza might be saved with it. She never brought it around, and spent almost 15 minutes speaking to the table next to us while ignoring our needs. We aren’t difficult customers and like to occasionally treat ourselves. But paying full-price for a pizza that came barely covered after it was messed up is not good. I am not one to complain as I worked for years in the industry but this was by far the worst $50 I’ve spent in a long time. Even worse, is I am pretty sure the remake had gluten in the crust as I got ill that night and never do otherwise.

It pains me to write this review because I do really love the vegan fried rice here (one of the few gluten free and vegetarian options on the menu) but on NUMEROUS occasions (seriously four or five times now) we have either driven to the restaurant or ordered online only to be told they can't prepare our food because their burners are occupied. I understand that this is a small business, however, it's extremely frustrating to be refused service over and over again. I'm not sure if this is only an issue with the vegan fried rice dish or not, but if that is the case you shouldn't advertise vegan/gf food on your menu that you're unable or unprepared to make on a regular basis. It makes absolutely zero sense to advertise a dish on your menu and then turn your paying customers away....but that's just my personal opinion. For this reason my family and I will sadly no longer be spending our money at this establishment because we dont wish to have our time wasted repeatedly anymore :)

I was traveling and really wanted pizza, however being gluten free with a tomato allergy, it isn't always easy. Bear Canyon was within walking distance of where I was staying and I could not have made a better choice! Matt S. was incredibly friendly, understanding and helpful. He helped me order the perfect pizza and oh my goodness, it was delicious! The best gluten free pizza I have had. I wish I didn't live so far away, I would be there all the time.

The a waitress was amazing but that’s about it after we placed our order we almost left .. my husband had bariatric surgery they wouldn’t let him order off the kids menu, I am gluten free and had a hard time finding options so I ended up with just a side of chicken .. my husband got chicken fingers that didn’t come until we were done eating they did comp for that so I will be thankful and they gave my son an ice cream sorry just overall won’t go back proof Is right across the way and way better

Tom Mourreale

The gluten free pizza is not very good ! The burgers are good

Meli Sandell

Very knowledgeable! They take it seriously when you say gluten free. Many options to choose from

Deevee Sanchez

If you haven't had the opportunity to eat at Cafe Desta you are missing out. This restaurant has the best Ethiopian/Eritrean style food around. The food is delicious and the service exceptional. Also if the raspberry almond tart is available TRY IT. It's a gluten free dream. We had one slice and then bought the entire pie. Highly recommend this hidden gem 💎

Meli Sandell

Have eaten there plenty of times with no issues. They have a separate fryer for fries and tots. They take GF seriously.

Jacque Revis

Never had this kind of flavor.. wine soaked onions and wonderful Angus burger. I got a gluten free bun and it was so amazing. Scratch based kitchen made everything amazing. Gotta try!

Ella Weiss

I LOVE this place...they have the best burgers and fries!! The wheat free buns are fantastic...Im celiac and can't have any wheat/oats...I've never had cross contamination problems at Graze. I also can't eat any dairy and about 30 other foods...they are good about making sure my burger has no cheese and no Graze sauce.

We went with 3 adults and 2 kids. 1 adult ordered the Italian beef dip, gluten free bread and went over allergies with the waitress. This adult didn't eat the food. For one the salad came with cheese and vinegar dressing, two of the allergies noted. They also didn't eat the sandwich they mentioned the meat and dip both tasted off. 1 adult got the chicken mozzarella panini and also mentioned the chips were plan and the aoli was weird.

I've been coming to this location for years and always had a good experience until today. Seems like it's new management. I ordered a burger on a gluten free bun. Service was slow and the place wasn't busy. When I finally got my meal and took one bite of the burger I knew instantly it was not a gluten free bun. When I asked if it was a gluten free bun, she said it was. I didn't accept her answer and another waiter looked at it and said it was NOT gluten free. The manager was very apologetic and said they would do another burger and get it right. They brought out a new burger but I had to ask them to bring frys since they took mine away. The manager said they would comp the burger but when I got the bill it was not taken off the bill. The waitress was not happy that I mentioned it. They finally took care of it. The whole experience was enough to keep me from going back. I thought they were dishonest and incompetent. Being dismissive about food allergies is bad business. To many other good restaurants that are more professional.

Amazing service and offered so much helpful information about their gluten free options

Food was VERY good. I would drive from Phoenix just to eat. I had the 2 meat mix and my family had the house noodles and the gluten noodles. Steadily busy. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!

lisa reff-stowe

My family and I went to have a nice meal at dinner time on Sunday. First of all, we waited a very long time to get our order and order to the chef. I have to order a gluten-free meal. They were out of gluten-free noodles. Which was OK. I substituted it for spaghetti squash. My husband, he had a salad that was supposed to have bacon in it. There was no bacon in it. And a glass of wine is normally $18 but Sundays are happy hour ,so the glass of wine was $14. I knew all this . anyway I think it’s pretty pricey , I was disappointed . Unfortunately, we are not going to Zona 78 Italian restaurant!

Jesse Petery

Such a sweet restaurant for vegans with plenty of options for gluten free too! Vibes are good and friendly and the food has always been on point. Highly recommend the gluten free cauliflower wings (we love the BBQ) and the vegan loaf as well! Sooo yummy! We will make this a regular stop when we’re in Tucson.

Melissa Tribolet

Food and ambiance are terrific! Ordered the Picadillo which is a seasoned ground beef and white rice with black beans and maduros. Maduros and plantain bananas. DELICIOUS! They have Mexican Coke to make a delightful rum and coke. Nora helped us and she was charismatic and helpful. She knew about the dishes and helped us figure out what we could order because we have some allergies. This place has many options as far as gluten free. They make a mean espresso and have many options for coffee as well. Overall we love it. We are once again dining tomorrow because every other Friday they have live music! Photos to follow!! PS They cater and have a take-out window for easy pick up.

Charlotte Thornley

Always delicious and I loved watching the employee take care of the teenage person in front of me who had Celiac disease. They did a great job changing gloves and looking up info on the sauces. (This issue is close to my heart since it affects my family too.)

Great place for those looking for healthy, tasty food. They have options for those who are gluten free, vegan or vegetarian. Staff seem happy and are friendly.

Robert Stevenson

Love the gluten-free options.

Cara Clatanoff

We love Ciao Down! Gluten free pizza and sweet treats are great. Pizza ingredients taste fresh. We like to build our own but the Snake Bite and Big Dill are tasty too.

Verrinia Kennedy

This restaurant isn't for me but maybe it's for you..? For me this experience was just okay. The staff was super friendly and the atmosphere in this small restaurant was open and inviting, in part because the dining room opens entirely to the outside. The food is based on healthy options (grass fed beef, no antibiotics or hormones, etc.) which is cool but I was expecting something that tasted different from other burgers and it really didn't (besides being too seasoned). I didn't try them but the natural sodas looked cool so maybe worth a try if you're really health conscious and they offered a gluten free bun option for an upcharge. They had some tasty looking shakes on the menu and offered original sauces like curry ketchup and Sriracha mayo in addition to your typical options. I will say the sweet potato tots were pretty tasty and everything was made fresh!

Stephanie Doolin

I absolutely love this restaurant! It’s my favorite restaurant in Tucson! Not just the food but also the atmosphere and service. My father and I like to go and I always get the butter chicken and garlic naan. He always gets the shrimp tandoori. The vegetable pakora is great too. My father is gluten and dairy free and he has no issues eating there. The staff is knowledgeable about what items are gluten and dairy free and I have never had a bad experience. I also love that they will customize what level of heat you want in your dish.

Erin Hamilton

Great tamales, great (welcoming, nice, helpful) service. Good vegetarian options, and clear markings for veg vs. vegan and gluten free. Sides are delicious too. Don’t forget some cinnamon crisps to go!

Anna Krieg

I love their gluten free pitas! So good!

Lauryn

Gluten free options are awesome. Love this place

Short & Sweet Comfy, art-filled café on 4th Ave, perfect for a bite, local vibes, and supporting the community. Brewing coffee and connection in Tucson’s heart. Longer Musings Café Maggie’s on 4th Ave is the kind of coffee shop that fits you like an old pair of denim—comfortable, worn-in, and ready for all the possibilities. Nestled just steps from the 4th Ave Streetcar and close to the University of Arizona, it’s got an effortless artsy vibe that just is what it’s meant to be—an authentic local spot. Inside, rotating local art fills the walls, community event flyers are tucked along the windows, and a mutual aid water station outside speaks to the café’s dedication to supporting neighbors. It’s the kind of space where chance meetings birth creative change, where ideas flow as easily as the coffee, and revolutionary conversations stoke impassioned visions for tomorrow. You’ll find me here on sunny afternoons with my favorite drink, an extra dirty hot chai latte- perfection! ☕️ 🥧 Their menu has something for everyone, whether you’re vegan, gluten-free, have restrictions, or simply curious. Today I had the avocado toast and was pleasantly surprised to find they kept it simple and let the flavors speak for themselves! Not sure what to order? Just ask—the staff is as welcoming as the space itself. With seating inside and out, nearby metered parking, and convenient options to pay with cash, card, or tap, Café Maggie’s makes grabbing a coffee or meal here easy. And don’t miss the people-watching! Located near the University and in the heart of historic 4th Ave, it’s perfect for a quick escape, gathering with friends, or just being in the moment.

Ate it so fast didn't grab a photo. But absolutely delish. One of our favorite weekend breakfast stops when we're near by. I love the gluten free omelette. The smoked tomato has the perfect extra flavor. It's absolutely yum. I tend to stick to one item once I find it, but my husband has tried many different offerings and never a complaint. Highly recommend stop by and take a try. Not sure the bloody Marys are gluten free, but I drool every time one walks by the table. Give it a try.

Amazing food. Perfect for gluten-free! The store is great for getting spices and supplies.

Jamie Steiner

They serve gluten free buns... Sooo good.

Niles Schwartz

I've eaten their gluten free pizza many times and always enjoyed. This was the first time I did a delivery. The pizza was cold and stuck to the cardboard. Basically unedable. Lesson learned. Why they didn't have wax paper under the pizza is beyond me.

FOLIAGE FOUR

Absolutely incredible experience at La Indita! Friendly staff, authentic food, reasonable prices! I have celiac disease, and the staff was incredible accommodating and knowledgeable about the menu. It was our first time eating at La Indita, and we will for sure be retuning in the future! My new favorite restaurant!!

Ren W

We had a great time. We had a large party and it was kinda busy so there were a few minor hiccups in service but overall it was good. The food was great, if a bit greasy. They even had an entire menu for gluten free folks and the food off it was just as good as the not gluten free food. They were very accommodating of our strange food requests and the food came out in a timely manner, considering the size of our party. Overall, a great little spot. Definitely consider a reservation if you have a large party (it was very easy to get a reservation). Highly recommend and we will probably be back.

Celica friendly

K. M.

The food was good and our server was nice, but North is lacking in accommodating allergies or labeling the menu. We have a dairy and gluten intolerance and our sever told us “there is bread crumbs on everything” even though we reviewed the menu ahead of time and there were many GF subs (noodles & pizza crust). Similarly with dairy, many things had dairy that were not identified in the menu so after ordering we were not able to eat them. Unfortunately we won’t be able to dine here again.

Brianna Lark

If you let them know your gluten free they make extra care to not cross contaminate and they also will let you know you can pretty much modify majority of the menu to fit gluten free!

Teal Albert

GLUTEN FREE I have a gluten sensitivity and I really enjoyed their gluten free pizza. It was a really good thin crust. They do tell you when you order that there can be cross contamination. I don't normally have an issue with cross contamination so I wasn't worried. I didn't have a reaction to Twin Peaks. They also have a GF that is a large! 😍 Also a huge win! The rest of the family had a meatlovers and it was also delicious! Definitely recommend!

A K

Love this place!!! Great menu options with gluten free options and accommodations, that includes their sweets too 😍 cute atmosphere, fresh, fairly quick food, well presented too. Today I got the build your own burger (salad instead of fries). Very good!

Chef Christina (Familytravels)

Being that my family is from Wisconsin and have Dairy and cheese farms I definitely know a thing or two about Custard, Cheese and a darn good burger and the first time I ever ate Culver's was up in Wisconsin. When they first opened up here I was super excited and I'll tell you what eating Culver's when I do is like eating for the very first time, every time. I am a born Native Tucsonan and have eaten every burger place out in Tucson and they can get quite boring after a while. So thank you Culver's for creating the first time every time I bite into one of your burgers. The Gluten free bun is pretty darn good as well. Sorry, no pictures I just can't seem to wait long enough! as soon as my food hits the table it's straight to the belly lol. The first bite always slows the heart beat and then after that it's like I'm not really sure what happens, I'm full but no burger it's gone almost as if a mad woman ate her burger like the butta burger beast lol. Enjoy!!

Remon Lapid

I especially appreciate the care they take in preparing their gluten-free food. My wife has Celiac disease and is very sensitive to gluten and we've never had a contamination problem. Oh, and I like their sandwiches!

Annamae Decaire

My favorite coffee shop! They have the best matcha and coffee and amazing gluten free options and the baristas are always so sweet 🖤

Claudia Salas Lyman

Great Mexican restaurant! The staff is. Ery friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is very relaxed. Great food, many options and good size portions. There is also keto friendly menu, vegetarian, vegan and gluten free. I recommend it 💯

Rachel Araiza

Great restaurant with lots of gluten free options and the tea was amazing!

Talismae Copeland

Great restaurant close to Albertsons and my dry cleaners. Perfect stop after errands. Everyone seems to love it too, very crowded and well staffed. Lots of gluten-free and dairy-free options to choose from on the menu. I'm going back and sit out on the patio in the shade and soak up the vibes.

Kristin Johnson

I have celiac and they were incredibly kind and accommodating. This is officially my new favorite restaurant—vegan or otherwise. Vegan food is usually passable, but this is downright delicious! I went in for lunch and left with an extra sandwich wrap, a scone, and donut. Nuf said!

Chris Donahue

Great sub and the have decent gluten free bread. Ladies were so nice obviously a fun place to work. Try the CPR sauce on your sandwich it is amazing..

Jrene Rolli

Large selection of starters, salads, bowls, main courses and pizzas. The restaurant values ​​fresh and healthy ingredients. There are also many vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options. This is very great! Attention: The Quinoa Bowl is called that, but it contains 95% rice and only traces of quinoa. That was a disappointment. It was very loud in the restaurant and we almost couldn't have a conversation. Otherwise nice atmosphere.
