Top 12 Gluten-Free Take Away Spots to Enjoy in The Hill, St. Louis

Ginger Family

We tried Favazza’s around 1:30 p.m., so it wasn’t busy at all. Overall, it was just okay—an expensive, average experience. We started with the toasted ravioli, which was actually pretty good, nice, and crispy with a flavorful filling. For entrées, we had the manicotti, the pasta con broccoli with pink sauce, and the gluten-free shrimp with pasta, plus a dinner salad. Everything tasted fine, but nothing really stood out as exceptional, especially for the price. We sat on the patio, which was unfortunately extremely loud—even with few people around, the noise echoed and made conversation difficult. Service was a real disappointment. Our waitress was not attentive and kept disappearing for long stretches, leaving us waiting for refills and check-ins. In the end, it felt like we paid more than the quality and experience justified.

I have been eating on The Hill since I was a kid. I was diagnosed with Celiac disease in my 20's. Thankfully, I am still able to grab a bite at Rigazzi's! They offer a GF pizza crust, as well as garlic bread. The food has always been delish! I have gotten contaminated a handful of times while eating there, but unfortunately I am taking that risk knowing that they do NOT have a dedicated GF cooking area. My husband ans my BIL love the fishbowls!!

Well treated excellent server... we had a large party, and everything was great... even gluten free options for some of us. I had 2 Tapas. Fish and fruit cheese combo, forgot to take pictures. ..

I have only had positive experiences here, the manager is aware of Celiac and cooks all the gluten free pasta in fresh water and clean pots. I have only ordered pasta (with my favorite being the Penne Ala Vodka) and have never been sick. I always tell my waiter I have a gluten allergy and for them to tell the chef!

Gluten-Free Pasta was terrible. Some noodles undercooked, some overcooked - poor taste that I expect came out of a box. On top of that, I was charged an extra $4 for it. If you don't need gluten-free - this place is great. But if you do - skip it. Tosted Raviloi was great, and the sauce was very good.

Incredibly delicious food and drinks and top-notch staff. We had Jim as our waiter and boy did we hit the lottery with him. Kind, super knowledgeable and ever-accommodating. Gluten free sisters on the hill!!!! This is the place to go!!!! Can’t say enough good about the food, the service, the vibe. 5 stars all around!

We actually dropped in to just see the menu as we had a bit of dinner just before that. About 2 years we came here with some others and the meal I had was wonderful! I ordered the vegetarian meal. It was unique and delicious! I cannot remember what the others had, but all thought it was really good. So, upon seeing their menu, we ended up sharing their small salads just to get an idea of these. Again, we loved the salads, dressings and all the fixings. Also the staff was great and worked with my wife who has to be gluten free. All I know is, we will be back with our friends. The place is an old gas station and is rather cute and not your standard walk in restaurant. We also loved eating outside and watched the local neighborhood folks walking and enjoying the area of The Hill. You will love their food!

Despite having a bunch of issues with ordering and pickup, it was worth it! The food and the customer service were both fantastic, and we went back a few days later! We had a vegan friend in town, and have been meaning to try Bougie Bites forever, so we finally did! I think we ordered right after they opened, and it happened to be an off night. My husband stood around waiting for our food for almost half an hour (while I sat in the car with a screaming toddler), and we tried calling and texting several different numbers we found listed, before someone finally came up and got us our food. We finally got home, and the food was amazing! Egg rolls were delicious, and so were the burgers! Toddler wasn't crazy about the chicken tenders, but our vegan friend ended up finishing them off for her! While we were eating, we were very surprised when my husband got a phone call from the owner (I think?), who saw our text and wanted to make sure we got our food. He explained what happened (and said we were still very happy with the food) and they apologized. And then in another surprise, we got a notification later that night that the charges on our card had been refunded! I didn't end up eating my Ouuwee burger until the next day, but it was still fantastic! And my toddler was still asking for more of the fries weeks later! Our friend went back a few days later, and didn't run into any issues, so I think we just happened to catch them on an off day (we all have them!). The only thing we weren't crazy about was the fries. They weren't bad, just not what we were expecting -- crunchy, but also a little doughy/starchy and vaguely sweet, rather than being salty. My husband wasn't a big fan, I thought they were okay, and the toddler loved them! (Oh, and the burgers were so good, my husband who's supposed to limit gluten totally forgot that he shouldn't have eaten the bun until he was finished!) We're a family of omnivores, but like to go vegan when we find tasty options, and we'll definitely be back! (Also GF bun options would be an AMAZING addition to the menu, and would put this at the top of our go-to list!)

Five stars aren't enough to express the awesomeness I always experience at Rock Star Tacos! Not only is the service personable and fun, but every single dish I've tried has been phenomenally yummy. I have severe dietary restrictions and the staff has been so very helpful in helping me navigate the menu. My recent birthday dinner there included guests that were gluten free, vegan, and just overall picky children and we ALL left with full tummies and happy hearts. The Rock Star popcorn is a spot-on appetizer, but don't be fooled - you need to order the chips and salsa as well! I don't know what they're doing differently, but it's definitely working! Be sure to try the tamales as well as something from the bar. The seasonal bar menu is exciting to explore and offers a number of super yummy and imaginative mocktails as well as some seriously amazing margaritas. If I could only eat at one restaurant for the rest of my life, I'm pretty sure it would be Rock Star Tacos!!! 💃

I legit loved everything about this place. I also appreciated how they could tell me what was gluten-free and not. Thank you!🙂 And most importantly...The gelato here is superb! The pumpkin and red velvet flavor are delicious!
