Gluten free vegan options are even really great

Todd Beaufort

This place has great pizza! We were in town for a short weekend and stumbled on this pizza because we were looking for a non-chain pizza place. Ended up going back again. The crust was great, lots of topping choices, gluten free options. The dining area is small but nice. Friendly staff.

Vickie DeArmond

Love the gluten-free, great white pizza.

What a great gem to find ! Being a part timer in Florida this was a new to me restaurant. I haven't seen them in Indiana. Food was amazing...great surprises inside. Huge, clean salad bar, free ice cream which I could partake in but such a nice treat if you brought the family. My Shelley chick sandwich was delish as were my steamed vaggies. What a nice option for a low salt, gluten free option. The staff went out of their way to be helpful and a young man was constantly cleaning off tables. A def return to, quick lunch restaurant !

Excellent experience here. I have Celiac disease and while they don’t have a designated gluten-free menu, they have gluten-free items marked on their regular menu. I had a cheeseburger on a gluten free bun with mashed potatoes and broccoli (wanted to avoid fries since they likely are in a shared fryer). It was a really good burger. My husband loved his burger too. Our kids were also happy with their meals. Very cool decor on the inside. There is limited street parking, but there is a parking ramp just around the block. Located in Downtown Fort Myers. Would love if they added gluten-free appetizers like a shrimp cocktail or something.

First time at the Fort Myers location. Great food and service. Kylie was so helpful explaining menu options, offered us tasting samples and made us feel so welcome accommodating me with gluten free options. We'll be back for sure!!! Linda & Brian B.

The waitresses/waiters are always so nice! However we HARDLY EVER eat out due to gluten/dairy allergies. My oldest daughter wanted BJ’s for her birthday so we went. We stressed my twins allergies and made sure our waitress knew as soon as we ordered. She’s said she completely understood because her mom also had celiac. Her knowing the severity and us stressing I thought it would be ok. We ordered from the Gluten Free menu stressing that version no toppings. My 12 year old didn’t catch the butter that was on the salmon. Within 2 bites was instantly sick. These issues carry over and wreck her body for the entire day! Anyone who has celiac knows the danger! It was served to her at the normal recipe throwing her into a painful evening. I knew better than to eat out. We don’t for this exact reason but wanted to for our oldest. Next time we’ll pack her own food to make sure. I’m only leaving this review to help anyone who may be ordering specialty menu items. Allergies are NOT taken seriously. Inspect your food first! Cross contamination or food allergies may be ignored! It’s not worth the evening that follows! The rest of the food and service was wonderful! I didn’t say anything while we were there until after we paid. Our bill was over $200 we weren’t wanting anything off and understand accidents happen. As a mama who couldn’t help my child from the aftermath I felt I needed to warn others that may have allergies!

Cute place, very tasty waffles with gluten sensitive options and nice staff. We enjoyed it so much we came back the next day!

When the gluten-free pizza hit the table, I felt like I’d been sucker-punched by good intentions gone wrong. The crust wasn’t just bad—it was a culinary crime scene. Dull brown, spongy, and so undercooked it could’ve doubled as a prop in a zombie flick, it sat there under a blanket of melted cheese and toppings like a secret the kitchen was desperate to hide. If it weren’t for that cheese, stringy and forgiving, you’d swear this thing never saw the inside of an oven. I wanted to love it, I really did. But this crust? It’s the kind of thing that makes you question why you left the house.

Sydney Friedman

Came here for bunch after a visit with my in laws and I have to say genuinely shocked me. Not only it’s the place adorable the staff was so friendly when I was asking questions about the crepes. I got the s’more’s without graham crackers and replaced it with bananas. I haven’t had a crepe in years so I was excited the coffee was pretty good too mine tasted like Cinnamon Toast Crunch! I ate that crepe so fast that I forgot to take a picture so here’s one of inside the place. Overall I loved it and next time I come to visit I will be getting it again!

Cindy M

I had a gluten free cheese burger and fries. I WISH we had a Culver's in NJ! This will be a must when I'm in the area again. Thank you Culver's for a great GG meal!

Suzanne Gibbs

We had a great waitress who gave us good recommendations and suggestions for gluten- and dairy-free options. The gluten-free French toast was very good!

Bunky Romain

Perfect place to take people for a great breakfast, also has gluten-free food, and an outside dining area. Great food, and don’t forget to get their million dollar bacon. Super place plus you can get a Mamosa! Great staff too.

Julie S

Quick stop before catching a flight at the airport, this place is fast food at its finest! Friendly service, delicious Gluten Free sandwich option, and free ice cream cones! Highly recommend!

Reilly Newell

$10+ is too expensive for the gluten-free empanadas, especially because of the size. The flavor was also missing.

Bill Hobbs

Lois Gerritsma

Delicious food. Misty was very patient and helpful in giving us guidance on gluten free options. Gave us extra fries to top off our experience! Highly recommend!

Tiffany Marshall

This was a lovely experience! Both the tea and the treats were delicious and well-curated and it was wonderful to be able to have my gluten-free family member there and have her be able to do all the courses with us.

Keith Litchfield

Relaxed atmosphere with great view of the river. Food was great and was delicious. Gluten free menu available for folks that are interested. Shout out to Jake, one of the greatest servers ever.

Billie Jo Hayes

We ordered and thoroughly enjoyed Feast A, ala carte Prawns, Edamame, the salad/soup/banchan, Bingsu, Soju and beer (of course!), and Makgeolli. Such a unique meal experience. Service was fantastic (thanks Miranda!). I am Celiac and Miranda was very knowledgeable about what I could have and not. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Leila Bambury

Kelli and Christina are amazing! they went out of their way to accommodate to all of my food allergies and even sent me home with some extra gluten free bread. BTW to all of my gluten free people out there, they have the best GF bread ever!! I 100% will be back and best of all they made me feel comfortable.

Ian Hay

I feel they did a very good job with our large group. The salmon was excellent and I appreciated our server checking in with the chef related to the gluten and dairy-free preparation. The dairy free espresso martini was quite good!

Barbara Abar

Very nice...menu offers gf sign for gluten free entrees... the lady that answered phone wasn't real nice when i called ahead to check on gluten free, but THE STAFF WERE ALL GREAT at the restraunt♡...

Carol A Kemp

I checked reviews before leaving home & found this place. Everything down to Boba Milk Teas are made from scratch as to sugar free Option. We enjoyed gluten free Pad Thai & ordered a gluten free Italian sandwich for brunch tomorrow when we board Key West Ferry. Lenny at counter is amazing. Hard to tell if he is an owner or manager.

T B

Food was served hot. Some nice additions to the menu but some of the old favorites gone. Gluten free was delicious and I did not get sick so I was a very happy camper.

Todd Sorensen

Fabulous both days. My celiac wife ate safely.

Bernardo Miranda Morales (Bernie)

Good gluten free buns i hope they add in their menu gluten free stuff.

Sarah Roman

I placed my order for pick up. I went to pick it up when it stated it was going to be ready on the email. I go in and the hostess says that my food is in queue and should be out soon. Still no food and 30 minutes later someone came out and said my food was taken. Not sure how this is possible if my food was not made yet. I waited 40 minutes extra for a pick up order during my work lunch break. My coworkers and I will never order take out again from here. Also, when I left, I asked to double check to ensure that the bread was gluten free as ordered, but they would not check and acted like it was an inconvenience that I asked although I just waited an extra 40 minutes for a take out order. Unreal.

Ellen Dehner

Amazing fresh yummy healthy food! Attentive server! Gluten free options are wonderful!

Bill Gould

Our server Viloria was the best! And Manager John visited our table to discuss gluten free options and pleasantries as well! An excellent dining experience!

Lisa Newberger

Very pleased with our Saturday lunch dining experience at Oxbow today. Our experience was positive from start to finish! The hostess was very kind and personable assuring she would have a table ready within a few minutes which she did! We had a very nice indoor table with a great view. (It was too chilly to sit outside for us). Our server, Adrianne, did a wonderful job making sure our special requests (Vegan salad, Gluten-Free Prime Burger and side) were fulfilled perfectly! She also arranged for a complimentary slice of delicious Carrot Cake for a birthday surprise! We will be back again!

Alexa Macias

I love coming here, the staff is super nice, especially the cashier, he is really attentive. They have really good deals and they have a lot of gluten free options that are actually good, which now a days is really hard to find. The service is as quick as fast food, but the food seems much more healthy than that.

Sarah Lucas

After the mall closed I decided to grab a quick bite at Monarcas. I went to the bar to have my dinner and Mario the bartender was very attentive to my needs. I have to eat gluten Free and Mario was well informed and let me know what my options were. They also have the gluten free options clearly marked on the menu which is a big bonus! Mario was a great bartender and made the perfect pina colada! The steak fajitas hit the spot! I will definitely go back to sit at the bar with Mario! He is a very friendly and knowledgeable bartender. Don’t forget to save room for the Flan!! It’s Gluten Free!

Holly McEntyre

Charming little Café and restaurant. Excellent service. Good food, tasty and well proportioned. A bit pricey. But a lovely spot you would never expect to find in a strip mall, pleasantly decorated and laid out such that you can hear each other over other diners and feel both part of and apart from the entire dining area. Highly recommend. They have gluten free bread and readily prepared me a gluten free, dairy free option. Friends enjoyed wine and cake as well as entrees and specials.

Last evening, nine of us went to celebrate a friends birthday dining together. I can say this was the worst experience of service I have ever had. First we ordered drinks and the drinks came wrong. After that we ordered our food and the food slowly came to our table. I was served the wrong meal and we waited for our waitress so we could tell her what happened, this plate sat in front of me for at least 5 minutes. My plate was taken and given to the person sitting next to me after the server had put it down in front of me and told me it was a flat iron steak. The person next to me ordered a filet mignon. Please note that the steak had sat in front of me at least five minutes and then given to the person next to me, yes it was cold. Now the rest of the table was being served their food. We have one that is gluten-free and had ordered a gluten-free meal. In front of her was a plate with macaroni and cheese and a steak which no one had ordered at our table. Two of us sat and waited for our food to be brought to us. When my food came It was ice cold, for instance refrigerator cold I waited for the waitress to come and told her My food was cold. She offered to take it back and reheat it. The gluten-free friend got her meal and could eat as I waited for my food. Everyone at the table finished eating. When my food finally came out, I told them to box it as I was not going to eat and have a table of eight people Wait for me. At this time, the manager came to our table and told us he talked to the Cook and bartender and that he would make things right. My food was boxed and sat in front of me. The waitress brought our bills as we were paying individually or as couples. I was presented with a full bill after the manager said that he would take care of it. I asked for the manager back and he said why would I do that? Needless to say I gave back my food and went home without eating, very disappointed in Firestone. Everyone at the table was in shock!

Magellan

Nasty nasty nasty - Andre, the OWNER was already distasteful over the phone when I called to ask if they had gluten free pasta. They do; so I decide to drive over. When I arrived and asked questions about the food ingredients of certain entrees, he told me to leave! Verbatim. When I asked why, he said I was giving him an attitude by wanting/ ordering the food to my specifications.

Kristina Bell

We had the best experience today! I am Celiac and have to be very careful when eating out. Today we called ahead to see if they had any gluten free options. The lady who we spoke to was knowledgeable of the menu and was able to direct me to the gluten free options. When we arrived, herself and the young man working both went back to the kitchen to check the prep stations and how the salad was prepared. They checked with the cooks and made sure my food was flagged and prepared safely. It was so appreciated! Everyone there was so kind and the food was fantastic!

Shelly Dailey

Great breakfast and gluten free bread! The app is great so you can skip the line. Fun atmosphere. Great outdoor dining.

Samantha Shimota

Best gluten free pasta I’ve ever had! Service was awesome, we love this place!

Oh my goodness, why didn’t I come here sooner? So delicious! The special I ordered, the Country Fried Steak BLT, was huge and so tasty. I visited with my parents, my mom unfortunately can’t eat any gluten but they offer gluten free pancakes here and she was thrilled! She ordered blueberry gluten free pancakes and she said they were very yummy and she can’t wait to come back. My Dad is a vegetarian and ordered biscuits and gravy. They do their vegetarian gravy with the impossible burger (to my understanding, Hopefully I’m repeating that correctly) so he was stoked and really enjoyed his brunch. We all also enjoyed the Skinny Dog latte, two iced coffees and one hot...umm yeah I need one of those in my life every day. Triple yum! The porch was gorgeous as well to sit for the afternoon and as we had my infant son, the outside seating gave him things to look at. Can’t wait to come back and try more items!

I absolutely cannot say enough great things about this family owned Thai and Sushi restaurant located in Fort Myers, Florida. The service is always outstanding, and the team provides guests with just the right amount of attention. They are also very accommodating to dietary needs. Plant based, gluten free, dairy free, and so on…Bangkok Thai will make it happen, and with a smile. The restaurant is always clean, and has pleasant interior design elements. Bangkok Thai is Southwest Florida’s BEST Thai food restaurant. That is the opinion of my wife and I. Restaurant Owner and Chef Bon Poompana creates amazing traditional Thai food, adding in a touch of his modern creativity and variety whenever he can. Now that Bangkok Thai has elevated its menu, and has expanded into the sushi realm, Chef Bon (A very talented sushi chef) has another culinary outlet to express his sophisticated palate and style. We usually go during dinner hours, but the restaurant offer nice lunch specials. My personal favorite soup is Tom Kha, and I enjoy the papaya salad. When it comes to curry, the Massaman is SUPER! So good-I’ve had it at least 25 different occasions and it never disappoints. The Drunken Noodles are also amazing, alongside every stir-fried dish. The sushi…Chef Bon does it right! The different food items at the sushi bar are always fresh and tasty. Go try it all! Enjoy!!

The environment is super nice, girly and cute! But even if you were to go with a guy, I’m sure they wouldn’t feel out of place. Food was great, their gluten free crepes were awesome as well, not too dry and good flavor. Drinks were perfect! Such a nice place to spend some time with friends, take good pictures and enjoy yourself.

Lainey Rodriguez

My husband and I are new to Ft. Myers and still discovering new dining opportunities. Well Blanc is quite the find and based on our first experience, it was truly one of the best meals we have eaten in Ft. Myers! The ambiance was chic cozy, with a European feel. The food was exceptional! I have a gluten sensitivity, so chef adapted the tuna appetizer and the escargot for me. The wine recommendation was excellent and nicely priced. My husband and I shared the dover sole special and it was SO GOOD, I can't even say enough. Our friend had the duck and it was sizable and looked amazing. Flan dessert was delicious and the presentation of our espresso and cappuccino were fantastic! The staff and owners are beyond warm and accommodating. I highly recommend the chic, intimate and delicious experience at Blanc to anyone who wants good food and good people in a wonderful setting! BTW, reservations are STRONGLY recommended!

Elizabeth Trempert

I'm a fan! I'm gluten free and my girl is vegan and we ate like fat kids. The food is delicious and the portions are great. That sangarita drink of theirs is amazing.

Debra Elaine Grey

I need gluten-free and hubby loves spicy. They were very helpful advising us.

Sylwias Icecream

We visited First Watch on a Wednesday morning, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The place had a lively, welcoming atmosphere and the service was friendly and attentive. Everything we ordered was fresh and flavorful. The French toast with berry compote was perfectly golden and not too sweet. The biscuits and gravy were warm and comforting, and the seasoned potatoes were crispy and well-seasoned. I had the veggie omelet with fresh greens and gluten-free toast — so nice to see thoughtful options for dietary needs. The avocado and eggs dish was also excellent. We’ll definitely be returning for another midweek treat!

Ya just gotta love Five Guys! The burgers are just amazing. Grilled to perfection and your choice of ANY toppings available at no extra charge. Yep, one to 15! It doesn't matter! No charge! And look at the fries! That was a medium cup. The cup was full and there were more fries in the bag than were in the cup! All fresh cut and fried crispy, not soggy! We loved it! Would be good if they had a gluten free bun for my wife, but the lettuce wrap was good too! Well done Guys!
