Top 50 Gluten-Free Dining Spots Across Melbourne

Kollen Marchant

The environment was cool. The art is for sale (kind of expensive) the waiter was great. They have gluten free options.

We frequent this BJs Brewhouse and appreciate the casual meal, with great service and variety of sports options on. This location has some great servers. They understand the seriousness of a gluten allergy and most know just what to offer. After years of dining here, our server tonight, Joshua, recommended the berry burst cider for a gluten free option. It was phenomenal! I opted for the Gluten free dessert to-go, but maybe next time I will take a six pack of the cider!

Hemingway's has been safe for me to eat at. They have limited (think Well seasoned chicken skewers, lentil soup, and blackened fish of the day) gluten free options, but being Celiac in Melbourne makes any place with quality cuisine a repeat.

This was a pleasant surprise for our group. Searching for a restaurant to accommodate several diet restrictions (gluten free, vegan, etc) we came upon this one and decided to give it a try. OMG! It was soooo good. The atmosphere is little underwhelming, but that never bothers me. Our waitress was the owner's (and chef) daughter and she was very knowledgeable and patient with our one million questions. We ended up ordering the seafood Moroccan tagine, the chicken Moroccan tagine and the skewer platter. The tagine was filled with plenty of meat and was a very generous portion full of flavor. It's a stew like dish served in a boiling pot with a plate of rice, so you put your tagine on your rice yourself. I loved this because I decided how much of the broth/sauce and rice I wanted. The skewer platter was also a generous portion and the meat was very tender. For dessert one of our group had the Pistachio baklava and raved about it. This will definitely be a regular in our restaurant rotation now.

We went here for our anniversary and the small touches to make it special, did make it special. Kacey was our waitress and she was just amazing, really appreciated her attentiveness in general, and with all my gluten related questions (they have a great GF menu). All around excellent evening with a great atmosphere and amazing food, we could not be more happy with our first time experience at the Chart House.

Toni caters to any dietary needs and the food is always delicious!! I recommend reserving the “chefs table”. You give Toni the basic food you want and dietary needs and she whips up a 8-10 course awesome meal. We love this place!! I have Celiac disease and have never had a problem eating here.

Tanya Hartings

I have my daughter and her friend here for spring break and Sunday we headed to Backwater for brunch! We sat outside on a cute patio and Chelsea was our waitress. She was very attentive made great suggestions on what we may like for food and for drinks. My daughter is gluten-free so she ordered the pancakes and said they were absolutely delicious. I had the breakfast sandwich on the Cuban garlic bread that Chelsea had suggested and it was absolutely mouthwatering. When the gal came out to deliver it to me, she said you’re going to fall in love and she was right. It was exactly what we needed to kick off their visit to Florida. I will definitely be going back and trying some of the other menu items that look delicious. If you’re in the neighborhood, you’ll definitely have to stop by for a fantastic dining experience.

Limited gluten free options (I also can't eat eggs) but the quinoa bowl was pretty tasty (minus the egg topper). The atmosphere is like most chain restaurants, nothing to write home about. The patio is a nice option. Our waitress was absent most of the time, too the point another server noticed and checked on us, but that can happen anywhere.

Regina Vogt

Decided to try this for father's day since hubs fav food is pizza and we r all about local. Staff is friendly but... I had to ask for kids water, refills of water, beer and wine, after actually ordering. No crayons for child, so he was disappointed. I am gluten intolerant, Checked website b4 we made plans. Get there, no gf options, Very disappointing as everyone in family was ok, but me. Ordered smores pizza, after 15 min, baby was getting restless, walked around, seen pizza setting there, waited, waited, finally asked if I could just deliver myself. There were at least 6 employees, 4 tables max when we came in. 2 hrs for our experience. Not happy, don't want to bash, but none of us will return. Sad bc we really wanted to support this family.the flavor of pizza was great, other than chic alfredo, no one liked the chicken

Lisa Day

Excellent food! I ordered a corned beef sandwich on a gluten free bun. It came with sauerkraut,stone ground mustard and coleslaw. I also ordered an iced tea. It was the first time I was there and I hope to go back

Nancy Jacobson

Sea bass was very good ... chef accommodated my food allergies ... would love for them to offer a gluten free pasta!!

Justin Rupp

Lots of gluten free options and staff was very knowledgeable in addition to gluten free items marked on the menu. I have celiac and did not have any issues. Food was delicious, will definitely be back.

Kristine R

Laurie was very attentive to my gluten sensitivity, I appreciated the gf options., And the bbq brisket burger my husband ordered was fabulous thanks to her suggestion to swap in the bison burger! Great food and great service overall! I just wish Florida was warmer tonight so we could fully enjoy the patio.

Roseann Cryer

I was bummed after going here. It looked fun and the food looked good. It was so loude I could not even talk and could not hear the waitress. I kept asking her to speak again. The food was good but not what the menu said it was. The waitress said everything is made in house. I am Gluten free so when she returned I asked if the GF Buns are made in house since most commercially made are no good. She then tells me none of the bread is made in house. When 5 minutes before she told me everything is made in the kitchen. Sadly we will not return. I was very disappointed.

Coleson Peppler

I love the burgers here but the customer service is seriously lacking and the manger is extremely rude. Over my past 5 orders they have forgotten toppings, sides, and condiments. I’m a celiac and can’t eat gluten and this is one of the rare places who offer gluten free buns at an extra price. It’s already crappy I have to already pay more for a allergy but on top of that they never give me ketchup, or mayonnaise even when I ask multiple times to please put it in the bag. since my gluten free bun comes in a plastic wrapping they don’t put the condiments on the burger even tho I’ve asked them too they said they can put it in the bag and then never do! I’ve gotten a couple deluxe burgers missing onions, missing lettuce, missing ordered and paid for bacon on the burger. I’ve gone back through the drive thru because let’s be honest no one wants to eat a dry burger. Tonight I went through the drive thru after driving 20 minutes to get it and asked the girl three times for ketchup and even asked her if she put some in my bag and paid extra for two ranches and then I get home to no ketchup no mayonnaise and a burger with no lettuce or onion. I called the manager and was very respectful and said hi I was just there 25 minutes ago and ordered food, I ordered a deluxe gluten free burger and they gave me no ketchup or the ranch I paid for and my burger was missing lettuce and onion. And if I could come back tomorrow and get a remake cause this is like the 6th time it’s happened. He then told me I could come back right now when they close in 25 minutes and I’m 20 minutes away. He said he didn’t care there was no one above him to talk to and hung up on me. He was very rude, very disrespectful and I’m sick of them forgetting my items. Sucks cause food is good. Management is horrible and it seems like there’s multiple people having this issue. I work across the parking lot from them and eat there on my lunch sucks they’re gonna lose a almost daily customer over remaking a single burger. Do better

Sandi Gough

We had Melissa as a manager and Melissa as our server both were amazing very attentive and very helpful. I had dietary restrictions and they were just amazing. Making sure that I had gluten-free choices and that came out hot and delicious. I would recommend this to anyone. thank you to Melissa and Melissa. We will be back.

D Rich

Excellent place with breathtaking views of the water. You can get great views sitting inside or outside. Gluten/soy/dairy free items for me and tasty meat dishes for the hubs. Changing table in the women’s bathroom. One of our fav places for lunch or dinner.

Sergio Duarte

My kids love this place, and my wife has a gluten allergy, so they acomodate her needs.

Viviana Mejia

The food here is insanely delicious. There are gluten free options. We had the chicken red curry and chicken pad Thai and it was very delicious. Had the avenue roll which was phenomenal. Would highly recommend this place to any one who loves Thai food or Asian cuisine.

Hermione Phillips

Best Italian and Gluten Free Pizza in Brevard!!! Agatha (owner) is a phenomenal chef and incredibly accommodating for individuals with gluten allergies. Breezy welcomed us and made us feel like we were family over for dinner. Grazie! I don't know what is in their ranch dressing ... Magic? .... it's perfect.

R P

Their (naturally gluten-free) macarons are out-of-this-world amazing! I might have to take up exercising just so I can keep eating them! Their other two GF options included meringue cookies and creme brûlée, which also looked delicious!

Becca was an awesome server! We had a great dinner fresh wonderful food and gluten free options!

Dani Cox

Wow!!! By far the best Italian food I've ever had! All fresh and homemade sauces. Great portions. Best Gluten Free Pizza!!! You must try them. You will not be disappointed. The owners were very sweet and friendly. Only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is bc there were no GF options except the pizza.

Sarah T

Love The Soup Shop! Love that they have gluten free options! Buy the frozen or cold and get the punch card! Wish I had known they had a punch card a long time ago! Also, if you haven't tried something and it's hot, ask for a sample! I didn't know they did this until recently! The grilled cheese and chicken noodle soup got the seal of approval from the 7 year old!

LISA LEWIS

Our server, Lima, was terrific—she made us feel right at home and took care of all our needs. The food was superb and service was excellent. And they had gluten free options!! We really enjoyed our Mother’s Day dinner and will ask for Lima the next time we go.

Brad Kraeling

This is our favorite Indian restaurant in the area!!!! Very good food. Great gluten free and vegan options. Flavors are the best and the spice levels are fantastic. We have eaten here a TON since we first tried it and I look forward to many more meals!

Amie P

OMG WOW! These are the absolute BEST empanadas I have ever eaten! They come in a variety of meals where you can mix and match flavors like beef, pork, black bean/ pland cheese. They probably have even more if you ask. They are GLUTEN FREE and the flavor is spectacular! I tried the cheese and my husband got the beef and black bean with plantains. The owner even makes homemade sauces. A green mild and red spicy. Mix the two and you have and amazing flavor and a little heat to go along with the flavor of the empanadas! The cheese is a food lovers dream. Cheese just dripping out of the middle of this creation is like a piece of fine art! What can I say except that I have been craving these empanadas since I had them last week! The owner is kind, professional and the restaurant at Renningers flea market (one of two locations) is very basic with not much seating but easy enough to find. The overall experience makes this unassuming restaurant seem like just another food booth when it is a diamond among the crowd. Who knew you could get 5 star service and food at a flea market! I have decided that for football weekends I am going to special order a dozen of these and take them home. The overall customer service and atmosphere is so welcoming and you feel like family. Don't miss your chance to try authentic empanadas made with love from a family run business that literally put their heart and soul into making these the best empanadas ever!

Megan Meeks

We had Mother’s Day tea with a group of 6. We booked last minute and they were able to accommodate. They were so kind and fun and the food was great. They easily accommodated my 7 year old niece and my gluten free sister. The tea was actually amazing and it was so relaxing. Can’t wait to go back for lunch! If parking is hard, there’s a lot behind the Henegar center about 3 minute walk.

Breckard Ulstrand

Went as part of a party with 8 people for lunch. The place was clean and the service was friendly. The menu ranged from $13 or $15 for sandwiches (including burgers and chicken) to $30ish for steaks and some of the higher end fish dishes. The salads looked good and the other dishes I saw looked good too. There were gluten free options on the menu, and there was the option to exchange any protien with beyond meats. I had the Buffalo chicken sandwich. The Buffalo sauce was delicious, it was sweet with enough heat that didn't over power the other flavors. The fries were good and crisp. The chicken in the sandwich wasn't rubbery. Overall, I liked it. Would go again.

Fishing around? This place is right on the water. You can walk the dock and look at boats, sit outside, or enjoy the huge oval bar inside. My friend has a gluten tolerance. The server took her time and went over multiple items that would be gluten friendly. We sat outside ordered fish dip (not GF) and scallops and bacon (GF). Meal was Jack Daniels salmon. I had the sauce put on the side since it contains gluten. Food was excellent, presentation was great. Overall good experience. Also this is the actual menu.

Amanda Stepp

We ordered The Smash Burger no bun (gluten free bun was an option but I opted out). Oh, my! This is by far thee best burger I have ever eaten. We also ordered slider burgers with fries & house salad. Fries were salted perfectly. Salad had a lot of tomatoes, onions, and cucumbers. Most restaurants only put one or two on their salads, this salad was loaded with the extras. Everything was delicious. And did I mention the smash burger? Wow! We enjoyed the atmosphere. Unique rooftop restaurant with no roof, was perfect on a cool night. We went close to closing time so it wasn't busy. Service was great, waitress was personable. We will come back.

Jonathan Meyer

Great food and service. Harley was amazing. Also, it has great gluten free options. They even have a dedicated fryer. A++

Nicole Deriso

Amazing service even when short staffed. Great food with vegan and gluten free options.

Meghan Wheat

I ordered to go and in the designated spots stated I have a gluten allergy. Last time I went here they were amazing so I wasn't super concerned. It wasn't until I got home and was able to open the container that I saw that not only had a loaf of bread been thrown into my bag, but also in the container with my fish. Now I'm unable to eat anything I ordered since it is all contaminated with bread crumbs. After tip, this came to over 50$ I now have to throw in the trash.

Theresa Lanno

I just ordered from Grubhub, but had the best gluten free sandwich of my life!! So good not soggy bread fresh ingredients perfect amount of cheese and topping I can’t wait to come in myself thanks guys!

Dustin

Fantastic food, amazing service! If you like Indian food this place is a must. Lots of clearly marked vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options.

Sandeep Wilkhu

Sunday afternoon was excellent here Gluten free crust was fresh and tasty. Had shared few dishes, service was very good. Highly recommend this place

me man

Good Real food. Easy to be Vegan and Gluten Free.

Linda Mize

Everything was so delicious! The garlic oil was yum! We put it on everything! Our chicken parm and the chicken with procuto and cheese was so good! They have gluten free pasta. My new favorite place for Italian!

Amanda Ford

The sushi was super fresh and delicious and the staff was absolutely wonderful and knowledgeable on Celiac's disease and gluten free and made sure that my food was safe.

Kay Rutherford-Williams

Fabulous Italian restaurant that does gluten free, too!

Lisa

Kayla is AMAZING!!! I have a gluten allergy and other dietary restrictions and she was so attentive to my needs and spoke with the kitchen to check on different accommodations since there aren’t many options there. This is super comforting and helpful because many waitresses/waiters don’t care about the seriousness of allergies/restrictions but Kayla went above and beyond! We will definitely ask to be in her section next time we come!

Bruce Arnstein

Amazing food and service! My family and I celebrated my mom’s 72nd birthday here with a group of 10: 3 kids and 7 adults. To start, their soda fountain has flavored sparkling water, unique soda flavors, and the usuals, but is made with cane sugar in place of HF corn syrup. The food is prepared fresh and served hot. Sooooo good also. Most of us had one of their award winning burger options, but they offer a good variety of food options. My wife who is, no dairy and gluten free diet, was able to eat a steak skewer with sides. The service was quick and friendly for a large group. I highly recommend Island IX for any occasion. If you're are looking for a new spot to eat - Island IX is your place!

Updated allergy menu means daughter can now eat breakfast here. Manager even came out to doublecheck allergies (gluten and dairy free). Server was great.

Bj

My friend and I were very impressed with this restaurant. Our server recommended an appetizer that was so delicious (fried rice balls, stuffed with cheesy broccoli). We also tried one of their gluten-free flatbreads, which was fantastic. The salmon that we added to our Caesar salad, was cooked to perfection. We thought the prices were reasonable.

Judi Shell

Great breakfast food. Even had a menu for me that was gluten free. Coffee is the best!! Service staff was friendly and efficient! 🎄❤️

Elizabeth

Great spot to stop for a sub or salad. Im gluten free and they will make you a salad any way the sub comes. Friendly staff

Ben Hough

Buffet and all you can eat style eatery. There is a hot grill, home style food, a sandwich bar, salad bar and pleanty of desserts and ice cream with all the toppings. Best of all it is open to the public! Also on select Thursdays throughout the school year they do an international dinner and tonight happens to be Africa. Always something new and different. There are also vegetarian and gluten free options. I have never had anything bad. Include it in a night out.

Today my husband and I ordered take out from Carrabba’s in Melbourne/Suntree. I have a gluten allergy, so one of my favorite dishes is the fettuccine with gluten free pasta and chicken which I ordered today. In addition to this dish, I also ordered Mama Mandola’s chicken soup. This soup does contain mini pasta noodles that I would normally eat around. But today, Caleb prepared this soup for me without the pasta noodles. He took note of my gluten allergy and took the time to make sure my soup did not contain any of the pasta. Caleb had the kind forethought to do this. I just want to say, thank you so much, Caleb! Your thoughtfulness did not go unnoticed and I am so very appreciative of what you did for me today! Dear Carrabba’s, please give Caleb a raise!!
