Top 28 Gluten-Free Take Away Spots to Discover in Encino, Los Angeles

My favorite pizza franchise in LA The cauliflower crust is a solid gluten free option only coming in medium size so plan for that. We always get the veggie pizza with added feta and last time tried the chicken sausage pesto pizza but we sub the grilled chicken in instead of the sausage. Really enjoyed this one and just ordered both of these again. We love the gluten free chicken bites too! Great food and service!

I love this place! I have a severe gluten allergy. I have never been sick from this place. They are not a gluten free kitchen but they try their best to make sure my food is safe. Everyone is amazing!

Super friendly staff comes by with a cheese grater or anything else you like but before you've even thought to ask. Gluten free options, service dog welcome, paperdalle with Italian sausage was excellent. Aanrader / recommended!

Ordered in a gluten free pizza during Superbowl. Arrived quickly and delicious. Solid, good pizza. Will be a return customer!

I've been to this place several times and it's always outstanding. If you only get take out, you're missing out because the customer service here is phenomenal. You're always treated like a valued friend and the staff is exceedingly friendly and personable. And the food? My absolute favorite Indian spot in L.A., hands down. I love me some chicken tikka masala and theirs is excellent- I've tried all three spicy levels and even the hottest one has great flavor beyond the heat. The samosas, both vegetable and meat, are delicious. The lamb coconut curry is so tender. Typically I HATE tamarind sauce at Indian restaurants, but I very much enjoy theirs at Masala House. I can't recommend this place highly enough. 1/21/2023 Edit: We just had a birthday party for my GF here and I had to update my review. I wish I could add another star! The last time I was there I talked to the owner Saleem about having a party there for 25 people. He said to just call him a day or two ahead. Being a little paranoid I called two weeks before, planned out a fixed menu and got an estimate. I went in the week before the party to pay for it, and he called the day before the party to confirm. As always, the food was fantastic- many of the guests told us later that it was the best Indian food they'd had, and would definitely be going back. The service was again, stellar. Two of my friends are gluten intolerant; when Saleem brought out the naan bread and offered it to them, and found out they couldn't have gluten, he went back and returned with some gluten free option just for them. Similarly, when we were serving the birthday cake and he offered them pieces, and they declined, he said "everyone should have something for dessert, let me bring you some pistachio ice cream." The food is always great here, but I'm telling you, the level of service and human warmth from the owner is just on a whole other level. A truly kind and decent man that deserves for this place to be revered.

They have Gluten Free bread! Healthy portion sizes, excellent cole slaw. The cinnamon bread french toast was better than most. This was our first time, stopping in, but we'll definitely be back.

Really loved it! Gluten free, pesto, great service. Encino, Lucas excellent service. VERY reasonable prices too!

Jeff Miller

The food was great. Had the chicken sandwich and nashville chicken breakfast. Really enjoyed the blood orange mimosas. We also got some pastries to go and so far they're all very good. Maple donut, gluten free brownies, chocolate chip cookies. Prices are very good too.

I'm glad to see that The Stand has updated it's menu options over the years. And they have a gluten free bun.

My favorite source for vegan & gf pizza. If you get the gluten free crust it's a good idea to order it well done. Perfect amount of crisp.

The gluten free pizza here rocks!

Went for lunch on a Sunday, and it was very crowded, which isn’t a dealbreaker in itself, obviously. It’s extremely loud inside, to the point you can’t hear the person sitting across from you. The lights kept going off. Our waitress was very nice but all of our food was cold by the time it got to our table (25 minutes). We chose this restaurant because it came up in a search for gluten-free options and had good reviews. There are exactly 2 items on the menu that are marked gluten-free: a waffle or pancake, with strawberries and blueberries. There are very few vegetarian options, and nothing vegan except oatmeal (although the waitress did say the gluten-free waffle is vegan because they mix it with water). The menu doesn’t have any allergy notations. I ordered the lox eggs Benedict without bread (I eat eggs Benedict semi regularly without any problems). As I mentioned, it was cold. I don’t know if the lox was bad or there’s flour in the hollandaise or potatoes(there shouldn’t be), but less than two hours later and I’m sick. I won’t go into details but definitely leaning towards mild food poisoning or an allergic reaction. So long story short, if you have any sort of dietary restrictions, this is probably not the place for you.

Truly the best espresso martini I’ve ever had! The service was phenomenal and accommodated our party of 22 and was the best dinner and service we had in Amsterdam! Also accommodated gluten, nut, sesame and flax seed allergies and gave everyone lots of options for dinner. Definitely add to your list, this place will quickly become a staple in Amsterdam!!

As someone with gluten and dairy issues, I never eat fast food. However Chick-fil-A has gluten-free options. The grilled chicken with a gluten-free bun is great. Or go protein style! They also have salads and fruit bowls. So you can eat somewhat healthy fast food. As for service, be patient with new trainees. Fast food does have a high turnover rate, especially with new Summer hires. The staff does a great job overall. Be aware of the ten cent bag fee. Also be careful navigating the parking lot. You cannot make a left into parking from Ventura Blvd. It's best to take the Winnetka freeway exit.

A small, comfortable upscale Japanese restaurant that offers excellent foods and warm, carring service. Both sushi bar and table service are available. I'm a vegan and sometimes a sushi purest give me a bit of a hard time. Not here. The servers are friendly and provided vegan and gluten free information. I ordered a veggie roll and Agedashi Tofu, fried tofu cubes in a light broth. I found both to be very good. The sushi chefs are artists. Their serving are large, delicious and simply elegant. The rest of the party ordered sushi, that was beautifully made and I'm told, delicious. Their serving were also generous. Free wheelchair accessible parking at the rear of the restaurant. Okumura is ADA compliant including the bathrooms.

Without doubt!! The best falafel worldwide - and I know this, because I've travelled the world. When I buy falafel from the markets I without doubt always suffer from the gluten, but as these are gluten free.... I'm free to indulge and over indulge. Amazing!!!!!

Kevin Yoshino

Yummy Gluten free, as good as any thin crust.

Elissa Croslin

This place is so great!! The plates are HUGE, it’s a great deal for what you pay and the food is so so delicious. I got a chicken kabob plate and my partner got a chicken schwarma plate and all of it was great. We also got a side of falafel and it was hands down the best falafel either of us have ever had. I’m also celiac so it was nice seeing what things were gluten free as well. This place is such a gem and we will definitely be coming back!

Found this place using Google. Happened to be on opening day. Really loved the look and vibe walking in. Gave 4 stars for service as we waited at the order area for about 4-5 min before anyone acknowledged us. There were only 2 people working behind the coffee bar. But once our order was taken the baristas were friendly and helpful. Lots of gluten free and vegan options. So many delicious looking pastries. Tried the gf brownie. Quite tasty. Had an iced Americano. It was fantastic. Espresso was roasted to perfection; not bitter or over-roasted. Smoothe and flavorful. Will definitely come back.

Great food, good staff they are super nice. Prices and portions are awesome. This is my Togm go spot for Thai food. They have vegetarian options and gluten free options :)

This particular Starbucks sells no coffee, only oatmeal. Porridge, if your from across the pond. Different, surprising, and oddly comforting. The "Oatista's", as they like to call themselves, offer a variety of toppings, including gluten free and wild game (again, for those from across the pond). I personally prefer the cinnamon, pecan, and rabbit. If you order with an English accent, they give you extra rabbit. Seriously, Google wants me to review a Starbucks. It's like every Starbucks I've ever been in, complete with the hyper counter person, and the same crowd right out of central casting. The Americano is good.

We had a craving for quality seafood but wanted to stay in the valley. We decided to try Davenport's for the first time and were so glad that we did! We started with the lobster appetizer and house salad. Each bite sized piece of lobster was submerged in an herbaceous butter sauce and topped with melted cheese. My husband happily ate his atop the accompanying crostini while I ate mine solo. The house salad was a nice and light addition to the first course. For the main attraction, I ordered the cioppino and my husband ordered the salmon. Both were enjoyed. My cioppino included perfectly cooked fish and shellfish in a thick, rich tomato broth. It was exactly what we hoped for! The service was attentive and accommodating to my gluten free diet. We will certainly return.

BEWARE!!! this place lies and deceives people - on multiple fronts - even down to the manager/owner himself! worst of all, i clarified pre order that the beef koobideh (luleh) is all beef (i do NOT eat lamb, i can’t), to which the owner said it was mostly beef and some lamb… yet it is advertised as all “USDA Prime, Charbroiled Seasoned Prime Ground Sirloin.” that’s a quote directly from their own menu. it upsets me especially because my family has been going to this restaurant for years, even back when the tarzana location was open. i have ordered this on multiple occasions and been lied to every time i verify. upon telling this to the owner of encino, he rudely says that is impossible and they would never say that it was 100% beef, that all beef luleh has never been an option, and it has always had lamb in it. they also add a service charge (18% tip) and still attempt to guilt you into tipping more, even though they often have poor service. i am pretty sure i have even told the restaurant in the past that i am allergic to lamb… i no longer trust this restaurant due to its repeated lies (all beef, gluten free guarantee, unnecessary fees, etc) and no shame regarding being exposed for such on multiple occasions by different people, instead the boss is very arrogant and refuses to admit to being wrong in any situation that has arisen. i feel disrespected and manipulated by a restaurant i used to be loyal to (past tense now).
