Will Beyreis

Must visit in Portland! Rich flavors and hearty portion in the arepa. Coffee hits the spot too. Very friendly people! And all gluten free. Celiac safe 👍

Beverly-Jane Perry

Chef Emma created a fabulous Thanksgiving meal, served by the most pleasant and helpful staff. The service was excellent, the food was great for our gluten-free, vegan -adjacent diets!! I’d give more stars if I could!!

David Guillen

This place is amazing!! The food was incredible, so delicious! They have a dedicated gluten free section of their kitchen. The staff was very helpful and friendly, also very accommodating and knowledgeable bout food allergies.

Angela Sottile

ALL GLUTEN FREE! Delicious!

Jacqueline Loiseau

Amazing spot! The GF IPA was so good we went to buy some at the liquor store after dinner! My husband and I had the burger and pizza and would never guess they were both GF!

Jacqueline Loiseau

Very knowledgeable staff for allergies. I got the fish tacos and when I asked the waitress about switching the sauce from a dairy one she had an amazing recommendation! The tacos came as a rice bowl for GF and had an allergy notice indicated on my meal. Amazing place!

Eliot Powers

It’s nice that they have so many gluten free donuts, but none of the donuts, gluten-full or gluten-free, were anything outstanding

Seammus McGrath

Our bartender was amazing! The oyster selection was great and my girlfriend was very happy with her gluten free fried fish sandwich (with no upcharge on the gf bun!). I had the beet cured steelhead trout on special and it was beyond my expectations. This was my 5th or 6th time here and every time the level of service and food always exceeds the last.

Keith Andrews

Great selection of vegan and gluten-free donuts. Definitely recommend the lemon zest or holy cannoli donut.

John Hardies

Happy to report that Saltwater Grille has Orange Bike Brewing (GF brewery in Portland) on the menu and a full menu of gluten free fried seafood options! Great, quiet spot with good food.

Becca Olach

Found a gluten free option for lobster roll, so happy we came here!

Chris Moulton

Service here was amazing! This gluten free bakery has got to be one of the BEST things I have ever had before! The service here is very good and I must say they are really nice employees. I hope to come back to this place over the weekends and even tho it's expensive all it matters is that it's the best in town! Also, thank you for everything you guys do for the brunswick area teen center! I go to the teen center alot and I have some of the granola deserts and I LOVE them alot. I liked the two boston cream donuts and the smores bar I had this morning. Again thank you guys for everything and I can see this business being the best ones in town!

Mitch Paine

Travel to Portland for a few days to get away and we heard that this restaurant had great gluten-free pizza. We went. I had a regular pizza. My wife had gluten-free. The drinks were great. The atmosphere was great. The view of the water was great. A must visit destination

Emily Gray

This is such a satisfying stop for those of us who can’t have gluten. I love the breakfast sandwiches and the sticky buns. The best part, though, is the experience. Being able to go in and order anything is so freeing. And the staff are just fantastic. They are so friendly and accommodating. It’s always a pleasure to go in there.

J C

Great food, service, and prices! They were kind enough to get us a table even though it would go past closing time and were also one of the only places our girls could eat because they had gluten-free pancakes! Highly recommend!

Danielle M

Pros: Since I couldn’t read the donut options (see con below) staff was very friendly and accommodating Holy cannoli options are a fun idea Cannoli cream had great flavor Decently priced Large donuts for price Thin and crispy so very unique Easy to find In asking for staff recommendations they were conscientious on if I was gluten-free Cons: Menus were difficult to read (I have a vision issue so it wasn’t bolded or popping - yes you can take photos and zoom in. See positive above) Tried the cinnamon sugar holy cannoli and was messy (understandable and expected) but don’t had little to no flavor In chocolate sea salt the chocolate was a great base but didn’t get any sea salt flavor

Matt Frazier

Ordered take out, a simple burger on a gluten free bun with onion and fries. That's it. Didn't get the GF bun, the burger was almost raw and the fries were so soggy they were almost mashed potatoes, they also had a strange chemical taste. Meal went right into the trash, not driving all the way back. Been here a few times before and the BBQ is hit or miss. This will be the last time I order from here.

Katie Rusher

Thoughtful menu and delicious meals. Great service from Emma. Don’t skip the delicious (gluten free) peach cobbler cheesecake!

Rebecca Lo

Delicious vegetarian and gluten free food. Always a challenge to find somewhere that offers both vegetarian and gluten free and Green Elephant delivers. I had the summer rolls, super fresh and light. Then the Thai green curry. Tasted wonderful and also felt healthy. A treat. The chocolate orange mousse cake looked amazing as well. Very nice staff as well. Highly recommend.

Joanne Dicicco

We arrived five minutes after one but the person behind the counter said read the sign,very disappointed! People just walked out with a box in there hand.

Andrea Terry

As someone who is allergic to gluten and a few other common ingredients, I struggle to find good, satisfying, hand-made, authentic food pretty much everywhere. So when I say that Empire Chinese Kitchen's Orange Beef literally (and by literally I mean literally, not figuratively) made me cry - it is not an exaggeration. I had to choose between wolfing the entire plate down without taking a breath, like I wanted to, and savoring literally every single bite. The taste was sophisticated, nuanced, amazing - AND GLUTEN FREE. The waitstaff didn't blink an eyeball when I said I was celiac and did research up to and including calling the farm that is the source of their ingredients to check on another allergy for me. My dining companions similarly enjoyed everything on their meal, and I can vouch for the gluten free steamed buns, as well. I cannot wait to go back! It's an hour from my house, and I'm already counting my gas money.

Yosaku in Portland, ME, is a gem for authentic Japanese cuisine. I've been a patron for the last 8 years, and their Teuchi Soba, a gluten-free noodle made from 100% buckwheat flour, is a must-try. Unlike other soba that often contains wheat, Yosaku's commitment to quality is evident. With new ownership, there's been a subtle shift in taste, yet the restaurant maintains its excellent atmosphere and flavors. Their sushi and sashimi selection is extensive, including weekly specials. If you're lucky, you might even get to try their Otoro. For fish lovers, their Hamachi-Kama (Grilled Yellowtail Collar) is a delight, offered at a very reasonable price but in limited quantities.

Made it a point to stop here on our way to Portland. The location is amazing and the beers are delicious! I was recently diagnosed with celiac and knowing I'd be missing out on breweries was a little bit of a bummer. These beers are the real deal, even my non celiac husband loves them! The only downside is its 2 hours from where I live! Ha! The merch is so cute too!

CC McGinn

I literally ordered 2 stacks of the blueberry gluten free pancakes and neither survived. And these were not skimpy stacks. They were the perfect treat to have on my birthday. Delicious coffee and so many other yummy pastries and gluten free options! I would go here every morning if I lived in Maine! Absolutely incredible!

Lisa H.

Absolutely delicious! Am gluten free, and always watching what I eat, and made it difficult cause I didn't want the noodles. But, I ordered cabbage, carrots, cucumbers, peanuts and chicken with a peanut sauce. So good! Will definitely return!

Stephen Erlandson

Great food with many gluten free options. This is the world's best lobster pier. Friendly staff with an efficient system of food prep and delivery.

Lisa McComiskey

The food was good and it had many g/f options. My daughter is celiac and told the waitress many times before ordering that she has an allergy. They then brought her food on a non gluten free bun. The waitress said “my bad” which then left my daughter to eat alone because they had to remake her food . This leaves a bad taste in your mouth. She never apologized, nothing. I was very disappointed. If you have an allergy beware, they don’t take it seriously.

Maren Devane

Gluten free grilled cheese no extra charge? YES. I didn't choose the celiac life, it forced itself upon me. This was a SUPER exciting find for the day after our bar crawl when we desperately needed carbs and comfort. The grilled cheeses were great but I was really impressed by the tomato soup, which I don't normally like!

David Stock

One of the few seafood places that you can take your gluten intolerant friends! Very good seafood!

Milan Barlov

Good if you’re have celiac. If you’re not move on

Eric H

The food here was amazing, reasonably priced and the staff was super friendly! Great options for Gluten free!!

Heidi Raphaela-Alamosa

I have been going here since moving to Maine in 2020....not because I am medically gluten free....just because it is great stuff! I try to stop in just for a muffin but usually come away with a lot more! Lots of creative variety, side by side with the old standby--delicious blueberry muffin, in case you're not in the mood for the fun rotating unique flavors. I am not telling my favorites because I want some to be left when I get there! LOL Nice staff, very talented baker who must work very hard!

Scott Bryant

Unbelievable GF lobster rolls and other seafood options. They take serious care w/ Allergies

Andrew Hoyt

Food and service was amazing the gluten-free options are awesome will definitely return

Annette Wakely

We have eaten at the bake shop several times and have had wonderful meals every time . Love stopping in eating for breakfast or a late afternoon lunch or a light dinner ,service has been outstanding. The food is fresh and ddelicious. Let me set this up there’s a huge huge selection of gluten-free options as well. . Recommend it highly to anyone looking for someplace for delicious breakfast lunch or dinner

Robert Clark

AMAZING! The place is cute and pristine, menu is temping. Turns out the freindly, knowledgable gent who took our order, cooked and delivered our fabulous meal was the owner of the fishing boat that supplies the restaurant - WOW! Got a hot and a cold lobster roll with a side of whole belly fried clams. Flipped thru a photo book of his fishing boat and crew in action that was on our table while we waited - nice touch. Lobster rolls arrived on large griddled, buttered sweet rolls and were piled high with big chunks and whole claws, mine gently kissed with the lightest amount of mayo - so fresh - WOW, again! My son devoured his hot lobser roll after uttering, "oh wow", after his first bite. The clams were so plump and fresh, so lightly battered and perfectly fried, none clumped together - honestly, we plotzed. Apparently, they're gluten-free, too. They were likely the best I've ever eaten. Packing a cooler on the next trip to bring some fresh fish back from the in-restaurant market. If New England Fishmongers isn't on your 'MUST GO" list for your visit to Kittery, fire your travel planner. Local? RUN, DON'T WALK to this gem!! Sorry, no photos, was too busy enjoying it IRL.

Vanessa Weeks

Great service and great food! Wonderful gluten free options for Italian food.

Francis A

Got there early and it was nice and quiet. Had great service. I got the blueberry gluten free waffle with a cold brew iced coffee and my fiancé got a smoothie. Both items were 10/10. We also got two ginger shots and those were great too.

Kelsey Babcock

Really nice casual lunch! We ate outside and looked out at the water. I got a lobster roll with old bay fries (delicious!) and my partner enjoyed the fish and chips. All their fried items are gluten free which was super exciting for my partner! Not sure it would work for someone with celiac’s but it was perfect for us.

Daniel Cox

Incredible food and atmosphere. Broad gluten free options, and incredible service by Cassidy B. Thank you!

Halle Bloom

Delightful experience! I stopped here last year when traveling and made Sticky Sweet my first stop back in Portland this summer. Every flavor is delicious and owners are lovely. 100% Gluten Free.

Robert Cohen, Real Estate

Wild Willy’s Burgers in York, Maine is a must try whenever you are up in this area. The menu is wonderful comfort food and incredibly fresh. With gluten free options, this restaurant is much more inviting than many other places. From March until early November, this is definitely one of our favorite restaurants every time we come up to York, Maine. Enjoy, Robert.

Kiera

Not only was the food fresh and the absolute best I've ever had, but their gluten- free selection is elite! My eldest child was able to have a calzone for the first time in their life. The service was friendly and attentive. Overall, we had a top tier, relaxing dining experience. Will definitely be back.

Marz Kay

I’ve gotten glutened here before… I would not try again. (symptomatic celiac)

fringe flower

We got lunch to go, everything was just awesome! Being a celiac, it's really hard to find safe take out and this was perfect.

P L

The Mt Katahdin was delicious with a good amount of toppings. A family member was ecstatic to get a gluten free pizza crust AND vegan cheese that actually tasted great! It’s really tough to find places that can accommodate wheat & dairy free. The staff were friendly and helpfully packed extra napkins plus hand wipes for eating on the road.

Joseph LaChance

Dedicated Gluten Free Fryer/Kitchens space. Love the Sea Basket!!!

Jen Willis

First time here, despite multiple visits to Freeport, as we only live an hour away. Menu had a lot of options that appealed to us as my husband is GF due to Celiac. We were excited & decided to try Linda’s instead of our usual restaurant choice. Unfortunately, half way thru his haddock melt he pulled a black hair out of his mouth! Instant spoiler. He couldn’t even eat his fries & coleslaw after this. Waiter offered a free dessert, which is a difficult option for someone with Celiac Disease and his appetite now gone from the disgusting hair. Paid for a meal that half of it was wasted. Won’t take a chance again. We will stick to the Bistro Grill for dining when in Freeport

Jacquelyn Duquette

Absolutely delicious! Our toddler got the belgian waffle. My husband got the gluten free classic. And I had the breakfast burrito! So yummy and amazing to have everything on the menu available gluten free.

A Whit

Outstanding cafe with amazing employees, a great place to hang out with friends, and excellent gluten free options (with allergy-aware staff). We really need more places like Aubrey’s in Southern Maine and the Seacoast.
