I have a hard time getting my gluten free pizza. Once they said I was coming an hour later than what I had told them. The second time, they made a medium pizza, but it wasn’t gluten free. (I didn’t notice until I was home.) Then, one night they had no gluten free crusts.
And tonight they gave my husband a large cowboy, instead of a family size - and no gluten free pizza, at all. They even argued with him, that I didn’t order one. Something is wrong at this store.
I place my orders by phone.
Upscale Mexican vibes with a cozy ambiance, famous for carne seca, diverse options, and a must-try for margarita lovers.

First and foremost, it has an extensive gluten-free menu. They even have mock flour tortillas. I would consider El Charro's an upscale Mexican restaurant, but the prices are still very reasonable. And of course, they are famous for their carne seca that can be had in various dishes such as tacos. Sì Charro's, I love this place and have eaten at all of their restaurants in the Tucson area.
Known for its vibrant atmosphere and outdoor seating, this spot offers a fantastic dining experience with top-notch, memorable pizza.

Sorry for not writing a review sooner. This review is for November of 2021. Better late than never! This was our first time eating in a MOD Pizza. I was so excited when I saw they had gluten-free pizza crust. This restaurant didn't disappoint! The pizza was outstanding! We dined at this restaurant twice while we vacationed in Oro Valley, staying at the Hilton El Conquistador. The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor dining. It's a clean restaurant with really clean bathrooms! All of the employees were very friendly with smiles on their faces. That's always nice to see, specially while traveling. We loved MOD Pizza so much we made sure to seek them out in other states while we traveled back to Georgia. (Another great MOD Pizza was located in Terrell Texas!) I can honestly say this is the best gluten-free pizza I have ever eaten!
With a modern vibe and varied menu, this spot delights with quality dishes, though consistency can be hit or miss during busy times.

Harvest was our go to place for a safe gluten free meal. The food is very good but the big disappointment was that they have outsourced their homemade gluten free bread. My wife loved their homemade crusty gf herb bread. She got to experience good bread like everyone else at the table. Now their bread is made elsewhere and it’s a loaf of plain white bread. I realize there aren’t as many gf patrons but how hard was it to make gf bread? You’ve lowered your standard on GF options. Now you are like any other restaurant. Please bring it back!
With a fun atmosphere and a menu featuring unique dishes like goat vindaloo, this spot promises excellent quality and generous portions.

Had a great time at Saffron yesterday. First of all, there are SO many gluten-free options (with the exception of appetizers, but that’s understandable, most are fried). Secondly, the food quality is EXCELLENT. Really enjoyed everything here. My wife, the one with the gluten allergy, had the Chicken Korma, and it was excellent (I tried it). Luis it’s great they offer some northern Indian dishes as well as Southern. I had the saag paneer, also excellent. I went with mild and it was a little hot but still glad I didn’t go with mild (which my wife got for the Korma, she’s less spice tolerant). But the spices are great, the spinach and cheese flavor is excellent, they don’t skimp by ANY means on the portion size overall and on the cubes of farmers cheese specifically. The naan was delicious and warm. The rice is even excellent. And get this, with the take out containers for the leftovers, they offered to include additional rice - who does that? There are restaurants the brow beat you into buying additional rice when you get something to go. Oh by the way, I got samosas to go and they, too, were excellent - great potatoes/peas/spices, love the consistency, and crispy on the outside. Very nice.
Service was over the top and I wish I could remember the name of the young man (blond hair), he was a GREAT server (I just don’t have the receipt with me right now). He got drinks quickly, was very personable and helpful with the menu, and generally a pleasant server who enhanced the dining experience. Adding to the great service was a really nice touch of the visit by the manager asking how our experience was, and even providing a gratis rice pudding to go. Outstanding!
Then there’s the ambiance. It was fun. I know, some of you are thinking “how can an Indian restaurant be fun?” And the answer is, I’m telling you, we had FUN. Because it was great food, excellent service, and while we didn’t sit at the bar, the bar looks cool and they have not just beer and wine but also mixed drinks. Staff appears to be happy working there and worked well together. I can see this being a go-to for us going forward.
Step into a classic American diner vibe where the nostalgic atmosphere and cleanliness make for a delightful experience.

Just WOW! Step back in time to the authentic American diner !We all love this place ! The food is so good , the service is excellent , the staff and customers are very friendly, the place is so clean too .
Most importantly, their fries is the best and I can trust that it's gluten free since they don't fry anything in the cooking oil except french fries. Go ahead and enjoy their meals!
Enjoy a bright and inviting atmosphere with a varied menu that keeps diners coming back for more, despite a few hits and misses.

Carrabba's had an inviting atmosphere and pretty good service. I was delighted to find a wide variety of gluten-free options and interesting dishes on the menu. I was really excited to try the chicken trio, but it was disappointing as two of the three were over seasoned, and the third was kind of bland. Sorry to be so picky, but I ate the bland one and left most of the others untouched. The vinaigrette on the salad tasted just like the generic brand at Fry's and probably is, which I wouldn't mind if the restaurant weren't trying so hard to be slightly more upscale.
My two companions ordered the same dish, linguine pescatore, and had wildly differing views. One loved it, and the other didn't care it, though I will admit that the one who didn't like it has a very sophisticated palate.
All of which just goes to show that taste is subjective. I will give them another chance because it could have been an off day or I just picked the wrong dish. I don't think it's fair to write a restaurant off just because of one experience. I'll update the review when that happens, but it could be awhile.
Bright and welcoming vibe with unique, delicious bowls that are a hit for families; perfect for all dietary needs!

The owner is a hands on lady, she’s out taking orders checking on the guest and making recommendations.
My other half she is Gluten intolerant and they have a wide variety of GF foods on the menu.
Great place to eat
Oro valley chipotle is so different than any others
No rushing. Adequate staff. They smile. Happy to accommodate gluten free. They all do that but oro valley does not make it seem like an added pressure. Lovely views. Clean.
I had the cilantro lime bowl with langastino lobster! Yummy!! Also had a gluten free brownie which was delicious also. The staff were very nice friendly and helpful also.
Authentic Thai flavors shine here with quick takeout and must-try drinks, making it a local gem for delicious, well-rounded meals.

We enjoyed their delicious Thai food and my gluten free wife safely ate her tofu and vegetarian stir fry. The red curry with chicken, broccoli, carrots, bamboo and basil was delicious. I like spicy and medium was plenty. My wife is more sensitive and mild was a little too much for her so next time she'll choose non-spicy. Take out service was quick! Probably 10 minutes order to ready to go.
A tucked-away gem with a vibrant patio, amazing bakery displays, and incredible crispy tacos that keep everyone coming back for more!

Dropped by Ace to get a battery for car fob, looked over at this very nice patio- full of people scarfing, and decided to add a stop! Approx 11 am on Sunday
😋
I wanted to eat outside: so you go in, pass the simply amazing bakery displays (if you can) order, pay, get a number and grab a seat. Whew
Not eating gluten or pork ( not celiac though) there are usually less choices- but there were a few tasty looking options -yay
I ordered the “Three Breakfast Tacos”
Took my number and hit a sweet table in the shade
Inside it was getting crowded with all the lucky people converged around the bakery display - I was jealous. I bet they had some gluten free options, But I still don’t need the calories
The server grabbed me some water and I prepared to WAIT. It took about 10-12 minutes and out came a beautiful display of yum yum CRISPY tacos
😀
Oh YES! The shells were amazing! Crispy, yet easy to bite, not soft, but easy to bite thru-truly the best shells I’ve EVER had
The pico and sour cream just topped it off
I think I set a record scarfing these beauties up.
It was … embarrassing 😳
I’d already paid (and tip is when you pay up front)
So I could slink off quickly with my pride intact
And lettuce hanging from my lip
Will I go back?
YES
FOR
SURE
Try this little gem tucked in a strip mall ( by Trader Joes)
You’re welcome ☺️
Gluten free sub available. It's the very dry Udis brand so I ask for mustard on both sides of the bread. They can do an all veggie one too, you can tell them which toppings. I just get L,T, pickle and pepper. But add chips and there goes 10 bucks.
I LOVE this restaurant! Besides the fact that almost all Indian food is gluten-free and it’s my favorite ethnic food anyway, they do such a good job putting in just the right (low) amount of spice, and the flavor...mmmm! I can’t eat rice-based meals as often as I would like, but I go there every chance I get. It’s by far my favorite ethnic restaurant in Tucson and we’ve been eating there for years.
With a warm, nostalgic vibe and friendly regulars, this casual spot offers solid eats at budget-friendly prices, perfect for family traditions.

I visit here whenever I visit my P's in Arizona. It's a family tradition to take my nephew here once a week.
Awesome staff; they remember your name (not the most common customer service experience). The food is solid to excellent; especially for the price. It's standard Americana : Burgers; Nachos and Excellent Sweet Potato Fries.
I just turned 40 and I'm the youngest person there by 30 years. So if you're a pretentious hipster this is not your place. I'm sure there's a Michelin-starred taco truck that nobody knows about in Tucson somewhere.
Everyone is super-friendly (including customers) which contributes to a warm experience. The interior decor is dated but who cares? If I wanted avant-garde chill Electronica blasting during my meal I can find that in plenty of places back home in Chicago.
My dad has Ciliac (he can't digest glutenl and there's never been a problem here.
Good food at great prices.
I love this place. They're amazingly friendly and the sushi is tasty and reasonably priced. I haven't ever had anything but great experiences here. They have great gluten free options.
This place is awesome! Small restaurant but super friendly service. Accurate wait time estimate when calling in a to go order. Good is so good. Everything is very reasonably priced for Chinese food. And they can even modify most dishes to be gluten free if needed. No need for our family to go anywhere else for Chinese food. LOVE this place!!
