Top 50 Gluten-Free Dining Spots Across San Francisco

Staff Oms

I brought a group of 7 others here last week as we were in town for meetings and one of our members is celiac, I saw the reviews of great food but I'm thinking.. it's all GF how good can it be... AMAZING AMAZING WOW! I was in San Fran for 7 days and hands down the best meal, best service, atmosphere, just hands down AWESOME! Samie was our server and she was incredible as well as management & staff of Firefly - GO ! Eat ! ENJOY! David Nye

Their Gluten-free fried chicken was great! Not dry and had a great texture.

My friend, who is severely celiac, got very sick here. They say all the food is gluten free, but that’s obviously not true. We looked up everything about this restaurant after she got sick and saw the review of some other person on this site who also got sick. They sell a lot of oats, so that’s probably why she got sick. Cross contamination. Watch out!!! For the not celiac’s, the food is good it just isn’t totally gluten free.

Awesome place to eat first time here in San Francisco, and being a gluten free celiac, they did the best gluten free double burger with lettuce buns I have ever had. Their fryer is also GF and the potatoes are cut on site.

Incredible bowl of noodles! I have a gluten-free diet so it can be hard to find good pho/ramen. And the photo speaks for itself on how much I liked my bowl of rice noodles! Perfectly cooked and seasoned meat, rich broth, and just the right amount. I loved having the extras on the side so that I could personalize the flavoring. As for the atmosphere, I loved the Disco music softly playing but the chairs were a little uncomfortable.

Food was ok, came out quickly and service was great but it was busy and relatively loud while we were dining. The ramen was the most disappointing to me- noodles seemed borderline overcooked and the broth was just salty but with little actual flavour. I found it to be some of the more blah vegan dishes I’ve had in a while. It was either super spicy or just tasted like rice. The vegan cream cheese seemed a little off to be honest but that’s on me for not saying anything. I will say they’re great at accommodating allergies as I’ve heard they’ve accommodated gluten free + avocado allergy.

The whole staff is amazing. Friendly, great service. Potatoes, mind-blowing. Biscuit, crunchy deliciousness with honey butter and home made jam. Scallion, egg, crab scramble! Gluten free almond flour pancakes so tasty.

Kristie Rolfsen

MUST EAT HERE! Celiac, just eating gluten free, or not. This place is amazing. We loved the Chicken Tinga Tostadas and Rolled Tacos.

Emma C Siegel

Fantastic food and very lively energy! I have celiac disease and I was so excited to find gluten free options here and our server was knowledgeable about allergies. Every dish is made to order so they're able to make customizations based on dietary needs. Cocktails were awesome too. Super excited to have found this spot, looking forward to coming back soon.

Pedro Ventura

The pasta is completely homemade and there are gluten-free options. It's okay, it's okay. The lasagna is the best they have, I recommend it

Joanna Kay

Eating here elicits uncontrolled, primal noises of enthusiasm. The flavors and textures are things I will dream about. And it's food you can morally feel good about eating if that's something you think about. Amazing crunchy fried mushrooms that were also gluten free!! It's hard to find GF fried things that are amazing and yet here we are. I fear that as time passes I will be confused as to whether my memory of this experience was real life, or if it was instead, a dream. Ordered: N5 - Pad thai E23 - Crispy Mushroom E11 - Spicy lemongrass Deluxe (This review is not hyperbolic - I'm just that jazzed.)

Noah Perdue

AMAZING service! Also the best gluten-free pancake I've ever had!! Maybe the only one I've ever had! And those ladies RUN that place. Five stars!

Nancy Collins

Love this gluten free menu.

Ellen K

Obsessed with this place! Can't believe we now live 2 minutes walk from it. Their thom kha soup is so delicious and creamy, my wife is addicted to it. Love that they have a variety of Thai and Laotian style dishes, which you don't find often. Their noodles are such glutenous goodness, really hits the spot when you want some comfort food.

Alysha Coughler

Super chill place with always tasty dishes! The gluten-free injera was tasty and made it an inclusive meal

Danielle

Me & my girlfriend had the loveliest dinner here. I found this place because they have gluten free pasta on the menu. They offer gluten free garlic fettuccine, which I appreciated so much because I cannot have gluten & have missed eating Italian food. I believe it is made in house. Our waiter was very personable & took my diet very seriously, even telling me what I can & cannot have. We had a caesar salad to start. I loved that they came to the table & freshly grated cheese & pepper. My scallops were cooked perfectly (it is so hard to find perfect scallops) & my girlfriend was impressed with her penne vodka & garlic fries. The only thing I would improve is my pasta was a little bit too al dente - probably needed another minute in the water because it was stiff. Otherwise my meal was amazing. Dessert was out of this world. We finished off with espresso & the chocolate raspberry mousse. I felt nostalgic & a bit emotional because I used to eat at restaurants like this all the time with my family, but have been unable to due to my unfortunate gluten free diet. The check came & I was surprised at how affordable it was. All in all a wonderful experience. Thank you Fino!

Gluten free buns

There was a line outside the restaurant, but we didn't have to wait long to order and the food came out quickly. The store's name is Birds, but is there a dog with a sandwich in its mouth painted on the signboard or on the wall? wolf? The illustrations are cute! This is a system where you order and pay at the cash register, then pick up your order at the delivery counter. I ordered a salad, which you can also add fried chicken as a topping. You will be given a cup to drink your drink, so you can pour it yourself. All food was served in paper bags for take-out. You no longer have to deal with customers who switch to take-out, such as when they run out of time, and it's also easier to clean up trash inside the store. The ultimate fried chicken and sandwich shop: Click here for spicy fried chicken in San Francisco! We had lunch at Bird, a recommended restaurant. Bird Salad　(＄6.5) Romaine lettuce center, baby kale mix, steamed beets, spelled flour, celery, apple Dressing (separate): Champagne vinegar & honey, ranch, or blue cheese The dressing was blue cheese. There was only one type of salad, but the ingredients seemed to be health conscious and gluten-free conscious.

This place was great, the staff were attentive and kind. I ordered Seafood Fettuccine and it was amazing. My boyfriend is gluten free and he was catered for too!

Loren Lachner

Best vegan burgers, fries and shakes in town! They also have gluten-free buns which are almost impossible to find. Amazing service! I order from here usually once a week. It's so addictive 😋

ベーレーンスエメラルド

Gluten-free scones and pastry w/ English clotted cream and cheese for sale.

Andrew Lutz

Highly recommend the halibut, shrimp, and crab, out of this world. One of the nicest restaurants I've ever been to. Beautiful views, right on the water. Complimentary valet service was excellent. Wait staff were kind and knowledgable; my fiancé can't have gluten or dairy and they expertly and carefully accomodated us. Will come again.

I had their 5-course tasting menu. I shared my dietary restrictions and that I am vegetarian beforehand. And Sorrel did an excellent job at adding delicious and creative alternatives and came up with a vegetarian menu for me, keeping dietary restrictions in mind. All the dishes were great but I particularly liked the one with root vegetables, risotto that was served with a bread with seeds/nuts since I cannot have gluten which I really enjoyed and the desert that I had very slowly because I did not want it get over :D Sorrel also offers zero proof pairings(non-alcoholic) which I decided to go for and was the best decision for this course - this provided more variety like tea, soup and some really interesting drinks which matched so well with the food that was served. Highly recommend this. I had a long day so I was very happy that I had dinner at Sorrel. It did take a while for some dishes to be served, there is no waiting area and have to wait outside until they are ready, it was really difficult to get through on call with the restaurant.

Mia Cudecki

Highly recommend for people with dietary restrictions. I had a gluten and dairy free pizza and it was great! It's also nice that they're open later than many places in the city.

Analicia Riegert

Great food. Tomato bisque was so flavorful and they had gluten free pasta that was fantastic. It didn’t break apart and had a nice form bite. A few of the staff were rude which I didn’t appreciate. It took me out of the wonderful mood I was in when we arrived. I’d definitely be back for take out but not going to dine in.

Palmira Martin

They truly are gluten free I’ve been there twice on this trip!

Carla Pinzón Gaytán

I didn’t dine here but I called to ask if celiac friendly (it is not). GF noodles and broth but they use the same water for the GF and non GF noodles.

Joce Al

First time and great experience. The family-owned atmosphere was one of comfortable neighborhood hang-out, like back in the day, old-school SF kind of hang-out. Sure, there were times when the other patrons’ spirited conversations drowned out ours, but it was all good. The brisket was melt-in-the-mouth delicious. Great big salad and a soft drink, along w the bbq, set me back just over twenty bucks, so an amazing value. My friend liked her blackened cat fish so much she placed a second order. Per her, the collards were also on point. Was glad to learn that all of their veggies are gluten free, and they don’t use animal products in their preparation. Also glad that they don’t put sugar in the rubs or cook them into their meats. Will be back with more friends very soon.

Ash Bachani

Dedicated fryer & mostly everything is gluten free already!

Sam Buchl

The gluten-free Acai waffle and Burmosa with corn tortilla were delicious! Wonderful service!

Staci Kavanagh

Great place with fresh food that can accommodate everyone's needs; vegan, gluten free, dairy free etc..

Brian Gerrity

Amazing spot. Great food, great service and a lovely atmosphere. Excellent gluten free pizza and pasta as well.

Maria Zirbel

Love the gluten free crust, bit it is a bit too salty. Otherwise, it's perfect.

Jinesh Jain

The drink "Fool me twice" was just something else!! Simply brilliant. And the gluten free pizza crust is delicious! Can't wait to come back!

Stephen Matzat

This cozy little spot 'on the bridge' offered a delicious dining experience with a super friendly (and funny) waiter. The Loco Moco was umami-in-my-tummy, ✔️. A gluten-free friend in our party was delighted to find something to eat as well in this otherwise gluten-forward part of town.

chris kolker

Cute small place, recommend checking for reservations first. There were 2 of us and we sat at the bar, it was still great. Great food and service. If gluten free, don’t have nacho chips even though they are corn, fried in oil used for gluten options. Highly recommend chicken tacos!

Alysha Coughler

Staff was welcoming and very helpful choosing what to get in our bowls. Always excited to find a 100% gluten free spot as someone with celiac disease. Spacious seating and very clean. Food was tasty, filling and fresh. Highly recommend for a healthy tasty quick meal!

Willow Kaplan

Great place, that takes care to provide information to their customers. They had clearly posted signs about changes to their vendors, covid impacts, gluten free/vegetarian information, etc.

Jeffrey Fiorino

This place is def good, I got the lamb curry with coconut milk which was a nice touch, and avoiding gluten and diary. The foods was on point . I stopped in real quick to eat at the bar I was craving Indian food, and curry, and this hit the spot. It does get busy though, so for a group make a rsvp.

Laurie Ohara

Jose tha barman was fantastic and the gluten free pizza was outstanding. Perfect American/ Italian vibe. Bravo!

Alysha Coughler

Staff was excellent! I told them I had celiac disease and they said they could get me almost anything on the menu. Got an Amy’s burger and was pleasantly surprised by how good it was!!

Max S

Had the most wonderful experience. Luis was our server and he was so engaging and helpful. They took allergies/celiac very seriously. The service was impeccable - water was always refilled, new dinnerware between courses, plating of food. But most importantly every dish was a total delight to the mouth. While every dish was incredible, my absolute favourites were the Nikkei (tuna ceviche) and the limeña (upscale potato salad - I’m not doing it justice with my explanation). Truly a delight and would absolutely come back next time I’m in town! Thanks La Mar!

Kathryn Roberts

Great sausages and fries. Most importantly huge gluten free menu, all beer is gluten removed, and outdoor seating is plentiful.

Suki Skye

Super fresh and tasty! Our awesome server offered a gluten free menu when I mentioned it, which is amazing.

binasmith22

Great gluten free pastry and breakfast options! The cookies are great, don’t love the banana bread.

Shay T

Good environment, great service, delicious food! And they made my meal gluten free!

kristina langner

I had a lovely evening having dinner here. Besides the staff being attentive and nice, the food was REALLY good. I had the scallops, pork belly fried rice, and the short ribs and fries. All the food was well cooked and the flavors were amazing! The scallops were my favorite. Also, bonus because they had hard kombucha on the drink list! I hope more places do this. It was great for me since I have a gluten allergy and don't drink wine either. Thanks! I'll be back.

Brooklynn Filstrup

please don’t come here if you have celiac i got glutened here off of their gluten free crepes recently.

Ben

Great food. Great service. Gluten Free and Vegan no problems at all!
