Top 15 Gluten-Free Take Away Spots to Enjoy in South Lamar, Austin

One of the best breakfests I've ever had! Got the lemon poppyseed French toast special and it was delicious. Absolutely perfect and decadent. Made with a lemon poppy seed poundcake or bread and a delicious glaze. Got it as the "Lemon Poppy Paris Texas Platter" which also came with migas, which they recommended with queso as the sauce, also super rich and decadent so I maybe would've got it with a different sauce but super delicious nonethless. They have a really wide menu with a lot of variety from savory to sweet and some vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options on the menu. Got an iced orange mocha with oat milk, super great drink. The staff were all very kind and helpful and made the experience really pleasant. Great value for the quality and amount of food you get. A really enjoyable and tasty meal!

We firsted tried Loro Asian Smokehouse & Bar via Postmates then our apartment catered from Loro which we found out to be the same place. After trying it twice, we want to experience Loro in person, especially given their expansive menu with so many items to try. Crispy Chicken Sandwich ($13.95): This sandwich came with citrus-cabbage slaw, pickles, hot honey, and smoked hot sauce. They put the slaw and hot honey sauce on the side, but even after adding the slaw and dipping the sandwich in the sauce, it felt deconstructed and didn't quite come together. I think the slaw would have been better mixed with mayo instead of citrus, which didn't complement the chicken well. Unfortunately, the chicken itself was dry and lacked flavor. Char Siew Pork Belly Bowl ($16.50): The pork belly was phenomenal but the portion size was small for the price, especially in contrast to the crispy chicken sandwich. There was barely any rice so they covered the bowl with a layer of veggies instead. The sauce it came with was really good and paired well with the fresh veggies. Wonton Chips & Dip ($8): Wow these wonton pieces are huge and crispy. They paired well with the thai green salsa which I thought was chimichurri. Even with the salsa on, the wonton chips remained crispy for a long period of time. Smoked Shishito Queso ($9.5): These weren't your average tortilla chips but were huge half moon, crispy chips topped with kimchi furikake. There were great with cheese and would have been better if they got it with protein. Smoked Wings ($13.95): Even though the wings were cold by the time we ate them, we could still taste the smoky flavor. However, I was surprised to see the menu description mention miso blue cheese because I didn't taste it at all. The hot sauce was noticeable, but it wasn't spicy.. Smoked Beef Brisket ($18.95): This was one of the best briskets we've had! The meat was incredibly juicy and fatty, though you could easily trim the fat if preferred. The chili gastrique and Thai herbs complemented the brisket nicely, but honestly, the meat was so flavorful on its own that it didn't need much else. Crispy Potatoes ($7.95): Unfortunately, the potatoes were hard, so we didn't enjoy them too much. They were seasoned with miso mustard, habanero aioli, and toasted white sesame, but the flavors were subtle and didn't stand out. Sesame Rice Noodles ($7.95): These gluten-free noodles were tossed in a chili vinaigrette with black sesame, green onion, and cilantro. While they were decent, they didn't pair well with the brisket or wings. I'd only recommend ordering them as part of an entrée rather than as a standalone side. Chocolate Chip Cookie ($3.95): The description says it has salted toffee and almonds but I didn't taste any almond. Nevertheless, the cookie was good, sweet, and a good size. House Made Lemonade ($4): The lemonade was too sour for my taste, yet tasted surprisingly good mixed with beer.

Great place, friendly staff and almost all crepes have a gluten free batter option…which is surprisingly good! I found it beautiful that the whole staff was speech impaired who were extremely sweet and attentive. 100% will come back here and support them!

My favorite restaurant in Austin!! Been going here since I was in a highchair. Seating is remarkably fast for how packed this place always is. Food is incredibly consistent, and it happens that you have any problems with your order they'll make it again for you fast, and with no questions asked. Beautiful atmosphere, history all over the walls, team members & customers always smiling. Drinks are strong, and you will never leave hungry. Same-day-made complementary chips and spicy table salsa. Try not to fill up on chips if you can help it, because entree and appetizers are both all a LOT of food. I usually leave with leftovers that turn into a beautiful breakfast the next day. Personal favorite appetizer: Bob Armstrong Queso Dip. They just recently won a Best-In-Austin award for their queso dips, which is saying something. Personal favorite signature cocktail: Matt's Knockout Martini. As the name suggests, referencing the founder's professional boxing career, this is a POWERFUL drink. They don't let you have more than two of them. A one-two punch of these can really get to you, but it's tough to stop drinking it because it's so delicious. Be careful! Personal favorite entree: Janie's Combination Salad. A gorgeous dinner salad topped with your choice of protein and dressing, but I always go with the Beef Fajita and only-found-here Cilantro Vinaigrette. This one is a terrific decision for those of us trying to avoid carbs, too. You can get a drink and a dinner for $30 here, which is very refreshing in the big city that Austin has become. I always take my friends & family here that come from out of town. They also have vegetarian and gluten-free options, which is great. Remarkable service. Employees all seem happy to be here, which is very refreshing as well in the current economic climate. Managers seem to know all of their customers by name, which is a cool thing to watch in a restaurant that's been around for 70+ years. Five stars. Come to Matt's if you've never checked it out.

We came in a Friday night in time to catch happy hour, which was a great discount on cocktails and appetizers. The food is lovingly crafted, delicious, beautiful entrees that is traditional. Because the menu is mostly gluten free, there were several options for my gluten free companion. Highly recommend for a lovely night out!

I did not expect a taco place to have such a delicious well thought out salad! It's a great gluten free and potentially paleo friendly option if you need to also avoid corn and dairy. Unfortunately, the tall corner tables were perpetually dirty as the varnish is degrading leaving them sticky and gross. Please get rid of these tables or resurface them in some way!

I have severe allergies to gluten and I've had many issues with restaurants. I spoke to Shawn and he helped me excessively. I am so beyond thankful as sandwiches are really hard to get. He offered to clean everything during rush hour and I felt completely safe. Very amazing service to accommodating allergies.

Very cute, kinda like a permanent food truck. It has a nice little garden courtyard, a ping pong table, and picnic tables with misting fans too. The juice shots I got were very good (wheatgrass and royal flush) but I definitely want to go back and try the rest of the menu. Besides fresh juice, they also carry soup, smoothies, chia pudding, salads, and pastries. Some of the baked goods were vegan and gluten free but I couldn’t try any with my allergies—too bad because they looked and smelled AMAZING. Definitely a repeat 💖

Kris Saad

Gluten free bread! Amazing veggie delite. Get the thundercloud sauce.

I've been here a few times and I've had a good experience each time. There's Mexican food all over Austin, but I like going here when for quality with a distinct flavor. It's near a major intersection in South Austin in a very convenient location with plenty of parking. It's a "strip mall" near Target and a dollar store, but don't let that dissuade you. Simple decor and a relative lack of ambiance keeps the focus on the food and your company. My servers have always been attentive and helpful, too. They do have happy hour and a full bar. I would give it 5 stars, but they are gluten-free items are not marked on the menu, which is important to me! But they were able to answer my question so I was able to order appropriate things for my dietary restriction. In short, great food, good service, convenient location and adequate surroundings.

I love to go here because it’s easy to get something gluten free. Their corn tortillas are homemade and they give you a lot in one taco. The ingredients also seem fresh! I especially appreciate the fact that I can order online to do a takeout order.

Radio is a "hip" place (I know-dated! lol) with good coffee, but leave LOTS of time if you want to get breakfast tacos at the next door breakfast taco trailer (we didn't have time to wait an HOUR for them? To their credit, they told us the wait time the instant we got up to the order window!). Kudos for having gluten-free zucchini bread at the coffee place which was pretty good (was just glad to have ANYTHING GF available!).

The whole family ate for under $40. That is unheard of in Austin. The burgers were great. I'm gluten free and they wrapped mine in lettuce.

Cassie Dean

The food is good overall but overpriced. They do have gluten free options. The atmosphere was cute although the dine-in area is small and crowded.
