Top 26 Gluten-Free Dining Spots to Explore in South Lake Tahoe

It’s been a few years since I’ve been here, but the menu continues to impress. I ordered the A.T.O.M. bagel with gluten-free bread, which was fantastic. I really appreciated that with the substitution, I was not charged extra. The perfect place to sit and enjoy the delights of South Lake Tahoe. I also really appreciate the menu, which makes it very easy to see what other options are available and what is popular. The wait in line is always a little long, but it is worth it. This is one of the OG places to find vegan and vegetarian food and it continues to impress.

Gluten free pizza, wings, and tots. The GF pizza was great. My friends had the regular pizza and said it was great. The house spicy sweet bbq sauce is really good. They even have a GF calzone that I'll have to try next time.

The gluten free pasta with garlic sauce was delicious, the steak was good. It took several tries for the waiter to get our orders right.

Amanda Deisler

YUM! The blue Hawaiian pizza is absolutely amazing. And they offer gluten free crust too!!

Luke Stone

Simple rotisserie and taco+burrito counter with really high quality food. The ingredients are top notch. They have chicken and tri tip on the rotisserie. Also fish and plenty of veggie, vegan, gluten free options. We got fish tacos, a tri tip burrito and a salad, it all came in about three minutes. Relaxed atmosphere with a few outdoor tables. This is going to be one of the local favorites very quickly.

Food was delicious. Server was very attentive. We have kids with food allergies - one became sick from gluten cross contamination. Our table was not near the front door, but we were very cold because the guests checking in were holding the door open which created a draft through the restaurant. Many people inside were wearing their jackets - they should move the check in desk outside.

🍔 **Burgers** I absolutely loved the burgers at Burger Me! They were juicy, full of flavor, and grilled to perfection. 🍔✨ 🍟 **Fries** The fries were crispy and golden, just the way I like them. They paired perfectly with the burger. 🍟👌 🧄 **Garlic Fries** The garlic fries were a delightful surprise—crispy, garlicky, and absolutely irresistible! 🧄🍟🔥 🥤 **Milkshakes** Their milkshakes were thick, creamy, and absolutely delicious. I couldn’t resist trying more than one flavor! 🥤🍫 🌱 **Vegan Options** I was pleasantly surprised by their selection of vegan and gluten-free options. It’s great to see a place that caters to different dietary needs. 🌱🥦 🍴 **Service** The staff were friendly and attentive, making me feel right at home. It’s always nice when you’re greeted with a warm smile. 🧑‍🍳👩‍🍳 🌄 **Ambiance** The atmosphere was cozy and casual, which made it the perfect spot for a relaxed meal with friends or family. 🏞️

We had a fabulous meal at Kalani's, food and drinks were delicious and service was outstanding! They have good gluten-free selections for celiac people like me.

They were able to make my entree gluten free and it tasted fantastic! My husband had the My Thai fried rice and said it was the best fried rice hes ever had :)

Rochelle Bening

My go-to morning coffee place. Great acai bowls, and the staff and owner are all super awesome! If you're gluten free, you can get the burrito as a bowl instead!

Jill Vath

Amazing sushi dinner! We had a BBQ albacor and Beet poke for appetizers. Then moved to Mushroom and Lilly roll along with Nigri seared tuna and a glass of Pinot Noir. Our waitress was Danni and she was fantastic. We were a challenging table with a vegan and gluten free diners. Danni rose to the occasion and we were delighted with our food and service. We would highly recommend Yugen Cuisine and will return to dine again!

This place was the perfect spot to stop by for breakfast before going skiing! Even though vegan options were not listed on the menu the staff helped me make the pacific wrap with honey dressing vegan (soo good!) and cooked my oatmeal in water and it was delicious with some berries on top! Even though they were busy, the wait time wasn’t too long at all. Gluten free options available too.

Do not recommend for people with a gluten allergy. After explaining that I am celiac and require gluten free food, I was sick 20 minutes into my meal.

Pizza is great and it’s very festive. Great gluten free options!

Chris

Loved it! Great service, great food, and perfect outdoor eating! They also offer take out! They also have great gluten free options!

Great food, unfortunately they had no offerings for vegetarians. My wife and I forgot to check the menu ahead of time, so that's our bad. They have great cocktails and an amazing view, so we tried to make the best of it with a selection of hors d'oeuvres, but they only had one of the meatless options available. So we had a couple salads and the zucchini with a tzatziki sauce, then ordered a couple desserts. Not the most filling meal (particularly for $122 without tip), but what we had tasted fabulous. Everything was flavorful and elegantly served. We were seated at 5:30, and they were already out of one of the hors d'oeuvres, and before 6:30 we heard them telling other people that they were out of half the things on the menu. So it seems they have some planning issues, but the server was very friendly and as helpful as you could ever ask for. We heard her spend almost 10 minutes talking through the potentially gluten free options with another table. I would not have had her patience.

Cannot recommend enough, best food in South Tahoe. Server (Scott) was attentive, accommodating and had a fantastic knowledge of allergens, what could be made gluten free e.g. pan fried tofu to avoid cross contamination. Food was delicious, as were the cocktails and the ambience is lovely. Would thoroughly recommend this and Magic After Dark to anyone visiting Tahoe.

One of the first things that I saw when I entered the building was a sticker that said "I love Gluten". Having a minor gluten sensitivity, I was worried how this would play out. One of the owners walked out and asked if we had any questions. After mentioning my concern he walked through every menu item's ingredients. There were two options that seemed be safe but he was unsure about the second. He went to the kitchen and talked to the chef who was also unsure. The owner then called the off duty person in charge of prepping that dish. I am very grateful for the level of service and consideration that was provided here. Full disclosure, there were not many gluten free options, but the pork shank was delicious.

We're long-time "Beacon" customers and arrived to find it's now "The Grove." Our experience (four of us) was disappointing. First, the $15 fee to access the restaurant was collected a guy who lied to us and said, "Oh, it's always here in the summer." B.S. I've never paid in my life and the restaurant didn't refund it. Second, the food was lackluster. One of the three cups of hummus had a metallic/foul taste...yuck. Fries were soft and limp. The gluten-free bun with the chicken sandwich wasn't good at all. Third, as with everything--the price was high. $82 bucks for two with a couple of drinks. Not terrible, but add in the $15 parking/access charge and meal tip--and we're at $115 ! And a final note...just gross. Talking about the server/busboy who had a toothpick in his mouth the whole time we were there...and I saw him take it out and put it back in his mouth a couple of times. Gotta scratch the "The Grove" off our list for a while. Plenty of choices in South Lake Tahoe.

The food here was absolutely delicious! My husband and I didn't know what to expect when we visited as we googled "Best Restaurants in Lake Tahoe" and Evans came up with such high reviews. We wanted a special night out and this was the perfect place to go! The restaurant itself is small and cozy, making for a tight fit, but the food made up for the close quarters. The waitstaff and the chef were absolutely amazing with catering to my husband's gluten and dairy allergies. There was tons on the menu for him to eat and they were educated and helpful on the topic! They even had dairy-free ice cream for him to have for dessert! That almost never happens. I got the Halibut and the dish itself was a work of art. We loved it so much, that my husband the next day said how he wished he could eat it all over again! Definitely worth the price!

Faith Scheffler

Excellent experience. They allow you to bring gluten-free pasta and they will cook it for you. Very nice wine list and delicious food. Highly recommend.

Sharon James

My grandparents and I come here every summer, the experience and food is always phenomenal! Today we were welcomed by two nice lady’s. The food was spectacular, especially the Nutella crepe I had. My grandpa is gluten free and this year they have a new gluten free English muffin option! Overall we have a great experiences every time we step foot into this restaurant!

Great Live music, outdoor seating with cozy fire pits and ambient sting lighting, across the street and a few steps away from the casinos on Stateline and Cedar at The Basecamp Hotel. Has an ever changing delicious local craft beer, Cider and seltzer menu couple comfort food menu with gluten free options for food and Drinks (I'm celiac. Been going for years, I love this place during all seasons!

Allergy friendly restaurant with great food and amazing views. I’m not one to write reviews but this earned one. We went here for dinner with our two kids(4 and 2) that have serious food allergies (gluten, dairy, and eggs). When we advised the staff of the allergies they sent the chef out to go over them. The chef went over all the ingredients in what we ordered and confirmed that their fry fryer was only used for fry and there was not gluten in the fryer. The chef even cooked the mahi-mahi on a piece of foil to ensure there was no cross contamination. Our kids ate all their food and really enjoyed it. My wife had the Pacific Ruben and I had the Hawaiian Chicken Sandwich. Our dinner was delicious and the view of the sunset was phenomenal. The staff was great and friendly. I can’t wait for our next trip to Lake Tahoe. This place is a must visit especially if you have any allergy issues. It was amazing to be able to go out to eat and not have to deal with allergic reactions.

My partner and I were looking for a place to eat that was just light and refreshing. But also gluten free. And this little sandwich shop did just that. They also have excellent customer service! We will be back!
