Gluten free onion rings

Kim Carranza

This is my wife’s favorite place ever! She suffers from celiac so them being 100% GF is very helpful. And to top it off the food is incredible!

Lourdes Williams

Went to this restaurant with my godparents for lunch. The food is great. Service is great as well. The staff are very attentive and very friendly. I like the fact that they do have gluten-free and vegan options in their menu. I had a wonderful experience. I highly recommend this restaurant. I just wish they would open a branch in Saint Augustine. Saint Augustine is a very touristy town and it is growing. A lot of people in Saint Augustine will be very happy if there will be a True Food Kitchen here.

Our order was ready and the food was good! Our burgers were not well done as we had requested BUT the staff was great and took care of it right away! That always makes up for any errors in my book! We appreciate the high quality food and gluten free and vegetarian options.

Jessica Rabbit

This place has the most delicious food! The bartenders were great. Super informative and helpful. Great vibes here. We came here on our way to the airport with a few hours to kill. What an amazing spot. The wings and the beef rib are killer. They had gluten free options for my daughter. Happy hour specials were a great deal. Get the beef rib. Just get it. You won’t be sorry. Special shout out to Kate!

Juliana Lambert

Ed was a great sever! Great gluten free menu

Lori Lee

Tried this new gluten free sandwich today. The most delicious thing I’ve ever had at V and I’ve been a patron for a long time. The crunchy crust filled with meatballs and cheese. Perfection.

Kethnie Moreau

Clean store. Great experience with DJ. Friendly server. Fresh ingredients, friendly staff overall. A lot of options including vegan and gluten free options. Great option for an affordable and fresh fast casual lunch or dinner.

April Roberts

I have a gluten intolerance and I was pleased with the options at Maggiano’s. Noah was our server and he did an outstanding job taking care of us. The chef came over to our table to answer any questions about my food options. My husband and I enjoyed our meal.

Just WOW. The ingredients are good quality and super fresh, the crust is absolutely delish. Tried both the NG flatbread and the sweet love panuozzo, and it genuinely has to be the best pizza in Jax. Gluten-free bread and crusts are usually very dense, gritty, and crumbly… Absolutely not the case here. I could not even tell the difference between the non-gluten and normal crust!! The non-gluten version even has that signature bounce back as you chew like any regular bread!! Never had that before! And the owner, Alex, is an absolute GEM. He was super charismatic and friendly, chatted with us for a bit and took the time to explain some of the menu items to me as it was my first visit, and I was stumped as to what to try first! Absolutely sold me on the Sweet Love Panuozzo and let me tell you O M G… It’s a must-try. So incredibly astounded by Rodrigo’s, I can’t stop raving to my fiancé and our friends about it! Can’t wait to come back soon and show it to the gang. 🫶🏻 Thank you so much for the amazing lunch! Much love! 🫶🏻

Very gluten free friendly

Rachel Mcgrath

Excellent food and wonderful service. Everything on the menu that is fried can be made gluten free. That is AMAZING for celiacs to be able to choose from almost the entire menu. The gator appetizer was delicious - tender and so flavorful. We got a whole fried lion fish and it was spectacular. This meal was the highlight of our week in the area. Thanks to the kitchen and management for providing delicious and safe food for those who need to eat gluten free. ❤️

Caroline Clements

Very happy to have stumbled upon this gem. We visited after the GA FL Game & were sat immediately after given options for different tables. We ordered and our drinks and food were brought out quickly and fresh. I have celiac (non-reactive) and had a fantastic gluten free pizza. I got the Laura and it was delicious. Others in my party got a meat lovers pizza & sandwiches and all were great. We were checked on frequently and offered to go drinks. All around fantastic & we hope to be back next year.

BB's is consistently exceptional. I have never had anything short of an amazing experience at this restaurant. The food is always outstanding, with each dish hitting the mark. The service is top-notch, and the atmosphere creates the perfect setting for a delightful brunch, lunch, or dinner experience. Let's talk about their desserts – they are absolute dream-inducers. On two separate Sundays, I invited friends to join me for lunch after Sunday service, introducing them to BB's for the first time. Without fail, each person left impressed and became a lifelong customer. Even I wonder if I'll be included in their return visits, as BB's continues to live up to its reputation. As someone who requires gluten-free options, I am delighted that BB's offers an array of choices for me. On this visit, I relished the warm goat salad without the croutons, a truly delicious dish. In the past, I have also enjoyed their dangerously good gluten-free pizza. But the highlight was the GF caramel brownie, served with a generous scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. I attempted to practice self-control and only eat half, but the treat was too irresistible to resist. Before I knew it, I had devoured the entire bowl. So, a piece of advice: if you plan to indulge in their desserts, do so with caution. One bite or half of a serving will surely not be enough once you start. In addition to their delectable menu, BB's boasts a full bar and a skilled bartender who concocts drinks that are simply exceptional. The overall experience at BB's is perfect for a girls' night out, a romantic date night, or even a small party celebration. Just be mindful of indulging too much, as stopping yourself from eating the entire dessert might prove to be a challenge. I highly recommend BB's as a dining destination. The consistently great food, excellent service, and overall ambiance make it an ideal choice for any occasion. But I must warn you, proceed with caution – the temptations at BB's can be quite irresistible!

I love all the vegan gluten free and grain free options

Elizabeth Riegel

🍕 The Loop in San Marco is like stepping into a culinary time loop of awesome vibes and gluten-free pizza perfection. The atmosphere? Cooler than a polar bear's toenails (in a good way). And let's talk about that GF pizza—it's not just good, it's "I'd fight a velociraptor for the last slice" good. The employees? They're nicer than a grandma on Christmas morning. Seriously, they make you feel like you've just found the pizza oasis in a desert of ordinary eateries. Next time you're in Jax, skip the norm and loop into The Loop—you won't regret it!

Jeanne Sutton

Corn tortillas FTW. As a gluten free person, it was great to see that corn tortillas were everywhere on the menu. I had a chicken quesadilla and the Al Pastor taco. Everything was delicious 😋 I started with a Classic Margarita and it was meh so the next round I got the Sangrarita which was lovely.

Brian Walsh

They have the best eggs Benedict around! Everything I've tried is amazing. I was shocked that I think I liked their gluten free pancakes better than their regular ones!

Abby Landreth

Charles is amazing!!! He took care of my allergies as well as my mother’s(gluten&dairy)! He is upbeat and was always super happy when he checked on us!! Woo! Thank you so much!! Also, the chips are gluten safe!

Courtney Rhodes

We hired Biscottis for our brunch wedding and everything was perfect! The food was amazing and hot! They handled our small 42 person wedding with ease. They easily accommodated our vegan, gluten free guests and they made sure we got all our leftovers. We were able to enjoy it the next day with some of our out of town guests before they left! It was great! My only comment would be there were some times that the buffet wasn't being managed well (according to our planner having to step in a few times). Other than that we felt like they were the perfect option for our brunch wedding.

First off, always exceptional service, no matter who is running the register. They seem excited to be at work, happy to share their knowledge of the menu and work hard to make sure exactly what you want. Parking can be an issue, so if you’re meeting someone you may want to show up a little early because there will be parking, but it may not be right in front or behind the storefront. Don’t let that scare you, there is plenty of parking in that area, just not in front of The King. But you really want to know about the food: Plantains – really good but a very small portion for an appetizer but the sauce with it is AMAZING. Fried Cheese - bigger portion but served with the same amazing sauce. Rice bowl - rice bowls are similar to the sandwiches, just without the bread. So if you’re gluten-free, rice bowls are a good option. Pork sandwich - this is what they do best, juicy marinated pork, serve with pickled onions, and fresh bread is an absolute fantastic sandwich. I don’t know why I don’t head over to Chancho King more, well I do know because it is not near my work anymore. When I have time and don’t mind driving a little bit, The King is where to go

I fell in love with both the neighborhood and the restaurant. Their food is so good, and I can order almost anything I like due to the gluten free friendly substitutions. Instead of breaded chickun they grilled my soy curls unbreaded, substituted their house patty that has gluten for a Beyond burger, and served me both on GF buns. I was ecstatic!!! A restaurant where I can enjoy Plant-Based Comfort Food, then enjoy the fantastic nearby shops (I’ll share in upcoming posts) is everything my heart desires. 🥰 FYI: I caution anyone with Celiac’s disease that cross contamination is possible, and the fryer/grill are shared. Gluten Free Fried Pickles: This was the #1 reason I wanted to eat here. Yes, their menu is amazing, but I wasn’t sure I could enjoy much even with a gluten free bun as an option. However, fried pickles have long been a favorite that I haven’t enjoyed in almost a decade, and this is the first restaurant I’ve seen that has them. They were so good, I would order them, even if they didn’t have anything else I could eat. But, thankfully, they do! I had these as a side for the Buffalo Ranch Chickun, specifically prepared to be gluten friendly, per my request. It was absolutely delicious, and I cannot wait to eat it again! I'm also looking forward to another Black Cherry Tarragon Stubborn Soda because it was delicious. Murray Hillbilly has a laid-back atmosphere with books to read and games to play while you wait for your food. There’s even a small assortment of items to buy including t-shirts, hand-crafted hats, and a variety of eco-friendly items. I had to try on the crochet hats. They were absolutely adorable, and for those who don’t know I used to not be able to wear hats because I had too much hair. 😆 I loved that each one was different not just in color but in style, and it was neat to see how they each looked on me. Perhaps next time I’ll leave with one.

Melissa Davis

Excellent meal as always. Very accommodating towards gluten free. Our waiter was wonderful. Helped my mom pick out the perfect sandwich. Plenty of meat on our sandwiches, too. We had a corner table, nice and clean. Love the bakery selection l and vintage candies. Always a great time here.

Julie Wilhite

One of my favorite places to go to eat!! They have many gluten free options and the bread is actually just cheese and is gluten free as well! Service is always top notch and everyone I've ever spoke with there has been extremely helpful and absolutely wonderful! My favorite place to eat in Jacksonville!

Kathlene Lei Ruiz

I had a fantastic experience at this ice cream shop yesterday. It’s hard to find places that offer such a wide variety of gluten free and dairy free options, so I was excited to see so many choices. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive and even noticed my ice cream starting to fall off my cone. They kindly caught my attention and offered me a cup to save my treat! That kind of thoughtful service really stood out. The atmosphere was warm and friendly, making it a great place to relax and catch a break from the Florida sun. They had plenty of seating, including outdoor seating if you’d prefer that option. If you’re looking for delicious ice cream, excellent service, and a welcoming environment, I highly recommend this spot.

Prices are a bit high but they had a gluten-free menu. My dad says crab cakes had way too much breading and he could not taste the crab at all.

Susan Weakley

We often come here if we want delicious food in an unhurried atmosphere. Great drinks from teas and coffee drinks to mimosas. Lots of tables and study/chat areas inside and out. They usually have GF baked goods(at least one option) and they have gluten free options on the menu.

Laura Shimer

Love it here!!! Gluten free amazingness.

Robert Sanders

My go to when me and my wife cant decide on what we want. If you need gluten-free noodles, use the pad thai noodles.

LilMissPerfct Dessie

It was the best BlackBerry jam and cheese danish ive ever had and my mom couldn't stop raving about her gluten free vegan orange muffin.

Natalie Densmore

My husband has celiac and Tazikis is very accommodating. They've even called to clarify my order to make sure they were preparing it safely. The food is fresh and delicious as well! Highly recommend.

Eva Pitsoulakis

This Thai restaurant was fantastic! I ordered the pad thai & we shared fried tofu squares and spring rolls with peanut sauce. Everything was full of flavor & they were super accommodating to my gluten and dairy allergies.

Ashlyn Rose

great pizza reminds me of new york pizza!!!! i have celiac so their gluten free pizza is amazing every time!!!!!! service is phenomenal and super fast.

Melissa Davis

First time in and I was very impressed. I had the best potatoes and non dairy cheese. The street corn was excellent. My son loved his pork wrap and Mac and cheese. I had chicken bowl salad. They were very knowledgeable about gluten allergies and were able to create an amazing lunch for me! The lemonade was delicious. The employees looked happy and all very friendly. We even met the owner. He had such passion for his shop. The vibe was chill and relaxing. I love the transparency of food prep. You can see the love put into the food. Clean, delicious eating. It was filling and wonderful. Thank you all.

Noah Gambrell

Kyle was great! Great food and super tasty gluten free option!

Caryn Jones

It's rare for upscale restaurants to offer a designated gluten-free menu. I was pleasantly surprised that Iguana on Park not only has a GF menu and the choices are absolutely delicious!

Rachel Goodman

Gluten free burgers

Stephanie Fahey

Love me some Culver’s butter burger and fries! Always get the honey mustard to dip them in and they also have gluten free buns that are amazing!

Antonio Arriaga

Brooklyn was our server. She was incredible. Knowledgeable on the menu and very quick to recommend alternatives for my wife who has celiacs disease.

channy

probably the best icecream in jax. their icecream is so creamy and delicious - do try the cinnamon praline (tastes like cinnamon toast crunch with candied pecans). i got the cinnamon praline + cookie dough and it was amazing plus they make their waffle cones from scratch. service was lovely 💗🍦 they also have dairy free & gluten free options so there’s something for everyone to enjoy

Lauren Hatcher

We came in with a group of 5 adults and 3 kids and were welcomed and seated right away. Our server Emma took great care of our group and went the extra mile for one of our group with gluten intolerance. Excellent service and food!

Karissa Hagemeister

💙 I ate at the Blue Orchid Thai restaurant for the first time this past week with my friend. It captures your attention right away with its beautiful interior and large outdoor eating porch. We decided to sit outside because the weather was so nice. I ordered my fav Thai dish, Drunken Noodles. They are great about taking care of gluten allergies there and the dish tasted very fresh and delicious. My friend got the yellow curry and she loved it. If you love Thai food definitely go The ambiance, food and location are amazing 🤩

Amanda Suter

Mia was especially helpful when we were choosing our beverages. She also gave a great gluten free option!

Alexis Britt

Our second visit. We drive an hour to come eat here. We love the menu has gluten free and dairy free options. I have celiacs disease (severe gluten allergy) and a dairy allergy. The food is absolutely delicious and the atmosphere is great. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable of the menu.

Ashley Nelson

Been here multiple times because of the gluten free options. The hero and the salad are fantastic. My kids love the ice cream. Highly recommend

Leah Truel

We were visiting Jacksonville from out of state and wanted to find somewhere with great Shrimp and Grits. When searching, Ida Claire came up and the menu looked great. Upon arrival we were immediately impressed by the atmosphere and warm welcome from the staff. The menu is 100% made from scratch and boy could you tell! The whole restaurant smelled fantastic! The food tasted superb and the staff was so kind and accommodating. My mother and I both have celiac so we got the shrimp and grits and our waitress made sure to let the kitchen know for cross contamination purposes. I eat shrimp and grits from all over and I believe this to have been the best I’ve had so far! We will definitely stop by here any/every time we are back in Jacksonville! The eclectic vibe and decor was also a huge plus! Every part of the restaurant is decorated uniquely!

Tonya Deines

Kailene was an excellent server. I'm gluten free, can't have cream sauce or lemon and she helped us find something great to eat. We have a hard time deciding what to eat and she was patient with us so we could take our time deciding without feeling pressured. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Kathleen von Balson

I like the variety on the menu. Gluten free options are easy to find, including pizza! I had the Derby Style Cobb salad and it was very good. Our waitress was very helpful and modified my salad without trouble. A regular place for my family to visit!

Susan Weakley

Everything here was delicious! Chicken Lamb and beef gyros over salad, rice or pita with sides that are fresh and well-seasoned. Gluten-free and veggie options are available. My hubby says the baklava is fantastic, authentic and definitely worth the calories.

Kirsten Peterson

This is one of those places that becomes a go-to spot. The food was excellent, and the service was accommodating and so friendly! The manager was very kind. I love that they had gluten free indications on the menu, also.
