Top 50 Gluten-Free Gems to Discover in Southwest Portland

Magic W

We purchased this late at night and did not have any high expectations because we did understand the store was gonna be closing. I don’t think I’ve ever had better Thai food in my whole entire life. It was the best food I have had in a long time. I am not one to write reviews, but this food was incredible. First things first, the Thai milk tea is authentic tasting milk, tea, and is perfectly sweet and is super addicting. Second we got Padruam-Mit and I am gluten-free so I didn’t think it was going to taste this incredible and full of flavor, but oh my goodness it was absolutely incredible. I don’t think you could find something better. Lastly we got a curry called Kaeng Panang And that had the perfect amount of spice and The savory was amazing. They also accommodate well for allergies, which is very much appreciated. Overall, you must try this place it is the best type food I’ve ever had.

This is a great little spot. Wanted pizza and they advertise their gluten free crust is made in house, so we gave them a try. Great pizza, great GF crust. Definitely recommend. The beers are also very good, but this is Portland so getting good beer somewhere is nearly the default setting, IMHO. The TV was set to a reality show, which wasn't really great for dinner, but other than that was a fine evening out.

This was a little hard to find using Google maps, you have to go inside the bancorps building to find it. Everything on the menu is gluten free except the burrito. Everything is vegan. I had the amazbowl for breakfast. It was a perfect departure from the fried food I had been eating in my work trip. The chef also checked on me several times to make sure I didn't need anything. Would definitely go back! Also, the owner game me a free piece of cheesecake as I was leaving 😁

Great food, coffee was also great which I never expect at a restaurant. We had the avocado burgers and they were cooked and seasoned perfectly. They are gluten friendly which is also a huge plus.

Came for New Year’s Eve and it was very delicious. Even though the restaurant was crowded and the restaurant got behind on reservations, the three at the hostess stand were well organized and efficient. Kudos to them! The steelhead and the crème brûlée were my favorite. They were also mindful of my gluten free needs and allergies.

Excellent Ramen as two of the three options (tare) are gluten free. Only the Shoyu is not. Highly recommend!

Amazing place! I have celiac disease and they were so accommodating. My family loved the food too! They have a lot of great gluten free options and the servers are so knowledgeable about the dishes! They even have a separate gluten free menu. Highly recommend for safely, quality, knowledge, and available options!

If you’re looking to for unique, high quality Thai food - try this place. We were expecting a classic American Thai spot where we could order pad Thai etc - this place is not that- but we got so excited by the menu and ordered a handful of things. I would 100% recommend the Yum Som salad, Khao Mok Gai (chicken entree), Spicy Red Wine Tamarind Duck, and Taro Crème Brûlée (dairy and gluten free and amazing!). Looking forward to our next visit 😊

My family visited Huber’s while in Portland earlier this month. My ex husband lived in Portland for many years so he was eager to take us to this institution. My son and his girlfriend had the Spanish coffee and it is a must if you come here. I’m Celiac with a true milk allergy & like always if I eat out am very cautious. Our waiter was so kind (I get a lot of eye rolls when inquiring about allergens/cross contamination etc.) and spoke with the chef to guarantee all that i had was safe. It was delicious. The vibe is very old school and inviting as soon as you walk through the front doors. I loved looking at all the historical photos of Huber’s and downtown Portland over the years. We sat in the bar at a table. It was full but service was excellent. We will be back for breakfast the next time we come.

Gluten-Free Ramen. Vegan Broth! The option for LESS noodles for kids. Great find.

We used to love Little River Cafe. It was great place for a decent lunch on our way into town. Husband would get the BLT and I would get the Salmon Salad as I can't eat gluten and that was my only option. The last time we went my salmon was undercooked. The owner was there and remedied it immediately. I know food, and I know when salmon is undercooked. We went there last Sunday for lunch and it is likely the last time we'll go. I know we're all struggling and trying to save money but offering only disposable cups for water was the first disappointment. They used to, at the very least, have washable plastic cups. This is not why I'm writing this review. Every item in my salmon salad was old or, literally rotting. The apple slices were dry and tasteless. The salmon was dry. The avocado was rotting and sure tasted like it. The lettuce, all of it, was rotting. You know when oak leaf turns black and slimy when it's old? That was my whole plate. It was disgusting. It is NEVER OK to serve anyone rotting food. They were busy and the owner was no where in sight and frankly I didn't think the kid behind the counter would give a shit (if you ever watch Gilmore Girls think Brennen in Luke's Diner). So we left. And, sadly, we won't be going back.

Everything on the menu is clearly marked gluten free, they even mark the teriyaki sauce. I ordered macaroni salad for my partner and they packaged it separately in a plastic tub AND wrote “gf” on my box… There were so many other green flags with how the food was cooked and prepared, I so so appreciated how easy and “normal” it felt to order something allergen friendly :)

Super small space so I recommend doing take out but like the other Sesame Collective locations the flavors, quality of food, and customer service are superb. They have a menus marked up for allergies/dietary restrictions (gluten and vegan). We got the hummus with burnt beef ends (possibly their best dish, were obsesses) and Chicken Shwarma, they swapped cucumbers for pita for me and I was still so full I didn't even miss the pita. Plus it was so flavorful!

I absolutely can not say enough good things about this restaurant!! I loved every bit of it. It feels nice and up scale as you walk in. Perfect for a nice date night. It has a beautiful blue mix tile floor with a dim lighting but is cozy but still had enough light to talk with my husband and read the menu. Our server was so knowledgeable about the menu and specials. I informed her that I was gluten-free. She gave me a lovely recommendation of sparkling wine to pear with my pork. The food is full of flavor. My husband and I ordered a little bit of everything, and every dish was more lovely than the next. We will most definitely be back! Thank you for everything ❤️
