Top 50 Gluten-Free Places Across San Francisco

My croissant loving son was diagnosed with celiac disease in September. I almost cried today watching his happiness as he ate a chocolate croissant at Mariposa’s. 💚

Note: Only writing this to let the owner know in case they aren't aware of the celiac review apps and the recent change. It's otherwise an excellent place with amazing staff and food, hope that it can get resolved for the celiac community. Something has gone wrong with their sourcing of gluten free ingredients. I have celiac and suddenly after incorporating this restaurant into my diet my blood work numbers have exploded upwards. I track my numbers very closely multiple times a year and I've done a lot of elimination and it points pretty heavily towards this place as being the culprit. This also reflects in the reviews for find me gluten free website where people are getting violent reactions in the last year. Hopefully they eventually figure out where the gluten is coming from so that other celiac individuals and I can go back here again as their food is otherwise very tasty. I would recommend them to redo the testing that they once did in 2019 to figure out where the source of the problem is. Thank you

I brought a group of 7 others here last week as we were in town for meetings and one of our members is celiac, I saw the reviews of great food but I'm thinking.. it's all GF how good can it be... AMAZING AMAZING WOW! I was in San Fran for 7 days and hands down the best meal, best service, atmosphere, just hands down AWESOME! Samie was our server and she was incredible as well as management & staff of Firefly - GO ! Eat ! ENJOY! David Nye

I went to King of Gluten Free Pizza for comfort food and they delivered! I had the: 12" (or was it 14" 🤔) Small Gluten-Free Special Pizza, for $ 30.63 One 12" half: Milano Fresco Pizza, with Chicken, spinach, pesto, feta cheese & basil & One 12" half: Chicken BBQ Fresco Pizza, with Chicken BBQ sauce, onions & cilantro. No tomato sauce. I didn't went there for the location, nor the atmosphere, I went to get great food and they lived up to the standard! Definitely would recommend for others that need a glutenfree pizza 🍕!

Their Gluten-free fried chicken was great! Not dry and had a great texture.

My friend, who is severely celiac, got very sick here. They say all the food is gluten free, but that’s obviously not true. We looked up everything about this restaurant after she got sick and saw the review of some other person on this site who also got sick. They sell a lot of oats, so that’s probably why she got sick. Cross contamination. Watch out!!! For the not celiac’s, the food is good it just isn’t totally gluten free.

My friend and I arrived shortly after Dragon Well opened and were warmly greeted by the owner, Christina. The restaurant was already full, so we wandered around the neighborhood for 15 minutes before returning and getting promptly seated. We ordered off the gluten-free menu, and Evan helped narrow our choices to the GF Scallops, Prawns, and Calamari in “Bird’s Nest.” We also got the GF Vegetable Fried Rice. Both dishes were just fantastic - well seasoned, and the seafood was cooked to perfection! The potato “bird’s nest” was delicate and added the perfect crunch, and the calamari was incredibly tender. We were delighted to find the iced teas we ordered had lychees in them. On our way out, Alex thanked us for coming and wished us well. I’m Chinese and am very picky about Chinese food, and it was legit. Add the stellar service and warm vibe, and Dragon Well is a definite winner in my book. I can’t wait to come back.

Awesome place to eat first time here in San Francisco, and being a gluten free celiac, they did the best gluten free double burger with lettuce buns I have ever had. Their fryer is also GF and the potatoes are cut on site.

John Hoeglund

My absolute favorite brunch spot in SF. Outstanding food entirely gluten free and vegan. Safe for most major allergens.

Meli Sandell

Completely worth the steep walk up a hill. Highly recommend. So many options to choose from

Jessica Wilmer

We went for happy hour and are immediately obsessed. $6 house margarita, fantastic. $3 street tacos, delicious. They have a community table, beautiful patio, nice music. Menu specifies dairy free, vegetarian option, gluten free, and spicy.

Anushka GVO

Great food! Options for vegans are good. The favorite is the big sweet potatoe fries with the buffalo sauce. The vegan gluten free pizza crust is soooo good.

Ray Ray

Great service, very little wait. Pizzas were good, and love their gluten-free pizza options. Even though it’s a chain, it’s a nice place and worth the Uber!

Daphne Bliss-Rosval

I go here all the time for the sweet plantain bowl so I got it catered to my birthday party ! It was a super easy process and my guests said it was the best food they'd had catered at an event! We had vegan and gluten free people and so it was able to accommodate everyone :)

Jeshka BodyArt

Incredible bowl of noodles! I have a gluten-free diet so it can be hard to find good pho/ramen. And the photo speaks for itself on how much I liked my bowl of rice noodles! Perfectly cooked and seasoned meat, rich broth, and just the right amount. I loved having the extras on the side so that I could personalize the flavoring. As for the atmosphere, I loved the Disco music softly playing but the chairs were a little uncomfortable.

Delicious and nearly everything is gluten free, too. It was so good that we ate there one night and went back for lunch the next day to try some things we didn’t eat the night before.

Emily Ou

Food was ok, came out quickly and service was great but it was busy and relatively loud while we were dining. The ramen was the most disappointing to me- noodles seemed borderline overcooked and the broth was just salty but with little actual flavour. I found it to be some of the more blah vegan dishes I’ve had in a while. It was either super spicy or just tasted like rice. The vegan cream cheese seemed a little off to be honest but that’s on me for not saying anything. I will say they’re great at accommodating allergies as I’ve heard they’ve accommodated gluten free + avocado allergy.

I'm a big fan of moonbowls! -Excellent taste! I had the tofu bowl and really enjoyed the various toppings (you get upto 5). My favorites: fresno chiles, roasted corn, citrus kale. -Fast delivery, everything was very fresh -Vegans, vegetarians and gluten free people can easily order. Love that the menu is so nicely labeled. -Other favorites: The various sauces (ginger-soy and creamy sesame), and sweet potato dumplings

Gee Pii

Food was amazing, great service! We had gluten free gnocchi, steak and ossobuco.

Dee Beutel

Always has gluten free pasta. Very nice. Inside atmosphere is charming. Great date spot. Prices are below average for the city but you can splurge on wine. I’m especially fond of the drip candles.

Gary Reinecke

This is the best Indian I have had in SF so far. They also have excellent gluten free naan and an extensive gluten free menu!

Malin Schn

Absolutely delicious gluten-free arepas! Felt completely safe even with celiac disease.

Erica (EVLove11)

These pupusas are too good! Literally had to come back the next day to get more after my first time trying them. I particularly love the large number of vegetarian options that they provide! Great gluten free place for those in your life as well! Tip on the tamales: the corn is fine, but the chicken is AMAZING. Just be careful of serving sizes because they do not shy away from large portions!

Bry

Amazing gluten free burrito. Both the shrimp and plantain ones are top tier.

Gabriela Torres

Very cute neighborhood cafe. I am gluten and dairy and they had gluten free toast. The food was great

Eating and drinking outside is an option and is pleasant. If ordering to go beers or ciders can be ordered as well. Gluten free is offered and is tasty

Celeste Villalobos Tahamont

The whole staff is amazing. Friendly, great service. Potatoes, mind-blowing. Biscuit, crunchy deliciousness with honey butter and home made jam. Scallion, egg, crab scramble! Gluten free almond flour pancakes so tasty.

Alyssa Zhu

Freekeh is a hidden gem in SF and strikes that rare combination of amazing food, service, and ambiance. We ordered a house sampler to try their various spreads and could not decide which one was our favorite- they were all that good, though the muhammara is a must-try! I am gluten intolerant and they happily accommodated me with homemade GF lavash-esque chips to go with the spreads. We also got the cauliflower and three different skewers - would highly recommend the kufta and shish tawook (chicken); each came paired with different sauces and were incredibly well marinated and tender. We tried two desserts and loved the halawa o buza- creamy, nutty, and the perfect amount of sweet. Our dining experience was complemented by the owner and waitress, who took great care of our table and simply radiated kindness and warmth. It was such a pleasure to dine here and we can’t wait to come back!

Crowded isles where you can find all things Asian, fresh fish, inexpensive fruits/veggies. Don't expect specialty organic, gluten free, keto labels here.

Mandy Motl

One of my favorite restaurants in SF! So many naturally gluten free options. The catfish, bun cha, and the chow fun are amazing. Highly recommend

Julie Hareng

The Best empanadas I've ever eaten!!! Served warm with generous filling, many vegetarian or gluten free options. I've tried the mushroom empanada and the banana and dulce de leche (sweet), they were both delicious and at a good price. They have some good refreshing drinks too. I definitely recommend!

Kristie Rolfsen

MUST EAT HERE! Celiac, just eating gluten free, or not. This place is amazing. We loved the Chicken Tinga Tostadas and Rolled Tacos.

Emma C Siegel

Fantastic food and very lively energy! I have celiac disease and I was so excited to find gluten free options here and our server was knowledgeable about allergies. Every dish is made to order so they're able to make customizations based on dietary needs. Cocktails were awesome too. Super excited to have found this spot, looking forward to coming back soon.

Jay Tkachuk

A wonderful gem of a place in Little Italy. A family business, with the proprietors giving you a taste of real Italian humor should you give them an opening (try ordering a dry cappuccino, lol). It’s rather small and fills up fast, so plan for waiting if you’re heading there for dinner. Worth it, though. We had the Frutti de Mare Linguini (special), Lobster Ravioli and Funghi & Salsiccia pizza. They have gluten free options. Highly recommend!

Pedro Ventura

The pasta is completely homemade and there are gluten-free options. It's okay, it's okay. The lasagna is the best they have, I recommend it

Jeff Lin

Great food and tons of gluten-free options for people with Celiac.

Joanna Kay

Eating here elicits uncontrolled, primal noises of enthusiasm. The flavors and textures are things I will dream about. And it's food you can morally feel good about eating if that's something you think about. Amazing crunchy fried mushrooms that were also gluten free!! It's hard to find GF fried things that are amazing and yet here we are. I fear that as time passes I will be confused as to whether my memory of this experience was real life, or if it was instead, a dream. Ordered: N5 - Pad thai E23 - Crispy Mushroom E11 - Spicy lemongrass Deluxe (This review is not hyperbolic - I'm just that jazzed.)

Noah Perdue

AMAZING service! Also the best gluten-free pancake I've ever had!! Maybe the only one I've ever had! And those ladies RUN that place. Five stars!

Gemma Boothroyd

Damnnn this place is good. You can tell the ingredients are high quality and fresh just by looking at them. I got the porridge which is gluten free, and it did not disappoint. Was my first time having a savoury porridge, and I’m glad I tried it here! Not quite as flavourful as I’d expected, but I will absolutely be coming back to try the sweet version of the porridge too 😊

Rae Ann Gustafson

The food is delicious, what I can eat. Sadly, they don't offer gluten free bread or pasta. I did order some of their sauce to put on my own gf noodles at home. Quite good!

Nancy Collins

Love this gluten free menu.

Claire Bonnepart

This place is clean, staff are friendly and the food was tasty! Gluten free bread and vegan options available. I ordered the tofu scramble and added a side of chicken apple sausage ($7) a bit pricey .. but I’d definitely go back to hang out in the outdoor patio area for brunch again.

Jacqueline Crouch

Ben

Yum as always. Have gluten free and vegan items. Fast service top

Melissa Hill

Great board game cafe in SF. Loved that their entire menu is gluten free as someone with Celiac. I had no reaction from the food. I had the Japanese fried chicken sandwich; the chicken and slaw were delicious and flavorful but the waffle had no flavor and kind of felt like just extra breading/carbs. Great selection of board games and no maximum time limit (just a $7 entry fee).

Ellen K

Obsessed with this place! Can't believe we now live 2 minutes walk from it. Their thom kha soup is so delicious and creamy, my wife is addicted to it. Love that they have a variety of Thai and Laotian style dishes, which you don't find often. Their noodles are such glutenous goodness, really hits the spot when you want some comfort food.

Manuela Gigli

But how is it possible that a place like this, certainly not cheap, doesn't have gluten free chips??? But does a fryer cost that much??? SHAMEFUL!
