Top 18 Gluten-Free Vegan Spots to Explore in St. Augustine

I am celiac, dairy-free, and soy free. This was the first restaurant I felt comfortable eating in since the waiter and kitchen staff took all my dietary restrictions seriously and recommended certain foods that would abide to all of them. It is not easy to find an accommodating restaurant. I highly recommend this place for those who are very sensitive to strict dietary restrictions!! The food was prepared by a chef and the taste was phenomenal!!!

Awesome place. Cool local art on the walls. Gluten-free pizza. Wings were just decent. Was surprised how good they were despite having thin sauce just poured on top for some reason. Felt great after. Just great place.

The arepas with chicken, the beef taco and the brisket tacos were so good I’m looking at local realty so I can live here now. We will definitely be back! The flavors of everything were amazing and everything on the menu except the burritos can be made gluten free. Heaven!

The one star is for the garden out back. Took my son there for a gluten free crepe and I ordered a regular one. The whole experience was disappointing to put it mildly. One girl working at around 5:30pm. We went for dessert and my crepe came out and it was terrible. The crepe was rubbery and slathered in chocolate. Too much chocolate. My son’s GF crepe never came out. I went to check on it and the girl apologized and said she was having trouble with the batter. I told her it didn’t have to be perfect and my son would still be happy. After a 30 minute wait I went back in and she said they had to make new batter. We couldn’t wait any longer and we left. She did refund my money. I have no idea why she couldn’t come tell us what was going on instead of me having to repeatedly check on the order. I regret eating my crepe because it was awful and I regret going there and disappointing my son. He was excited. I make WAY better GF crepes at home. Do not recommend going there. Save your money for good food.

Excellent choice for gluten free diets. They make everything to order so along with the listed GF items accommodation can be made too. Our waiter was knowledgeable and friendly. Wine list was excellent. Highly recommend.

Visiting here from Boston. I enjoyed the Carrot “Lox” bagel (gluten free available). It was one of the most delicious sandwiches I’ve ever had. They have so many healthy and yummy options here as well as to go option. The staff was also so nice

Absolutely love Purple Olive. The food is always amazing and they have lots of gluten free options! I love the braised short rib and the dijon salmon. Both are incredible. We also love that they have gluten free desserts! My favorite restaurant in St. Augustine!

Such a quaint place. Felt like I was eating in a home somewhere in Italy. Wonderful, personalized and intuitive service from Ann Marie. All four of us had seafood and were very happy. The table next to us ordered an extra large pizza. It looked so good that we called in a to go order a couple days later. One of the top pizzas we’ve ever had. I ordered a gluten free pizza, it was one of the best I’ve ever eaten! This is our go-to restaurant in Crescent Beach. Thank you Viola’s for providing such a great experience for your customers!

Excellent vibe and Gluten free menu for my Husband. Our server Emma Leigh was superb, around and checking without bring obtrusive.

Vey very disappointed with the seriousness taken with food allergies. I am thankful we caught the carelessness before my children ate their food. My children have celiac disease & are gluten free because of this. I also explained this to our server. We ordered the shrimp & grits that is listed as a “gluten free option”. I explained that we need the item to be gluten free due to their gluten allergy. When our food was delivered the “gluten free” shrimp & grits was served with cornbread on the side of the bowl. I asked our server if the bread was gluten free & she replied that she was pretty sure it was…. Well it is not. Besides obvious cross contamination issues a gluten item should not be a side item on the same bowl as a gluten free entree. I spoke with the manager and she said she would talk with the kitchen staff and the employee would be reprimanded & that she had tried previously to have the cornbread removed. My son would have easily been hospitalized if we had not caught this. We will not be back & I am hoping the staff and kitchen staff will be more cautious & careful with allergies. This is beyond carelessness & unfortunate. I hope this will be taken seriously throughout the restaurant.

What a great pizza place! I visited with my mom and we loved the options to build our own pizza. They even offered vegan cheese when I asked for cheese-less pizza and a gluten free dough for my mom. So many great topping options and did I mention? Excellent customer service. I highly recommend Your Pie and look forward to returning!

Disappointed After Year of Good Experiences I’ve been a loyal customer of Simone’s for year, frequently bringing my grandchildren to enjoy their delicious gluten-free pizza, Calamari Fritti, and meatballs. My older grandkids especially love the Pollo E Campanelli Alla Pesto. Up until now, the food and service have always been excellent the wait staff attentive and the experience enjoyable. Unfortunately, our most recent visit was incredibly disappointing and will be our last. This time, the service was far below the standard we’ve come to expect. Our waiter seemed overwhelmed, juggling too many tables, and never once came to check on us while we were seated outside. The issue began when my 4-year-old granddaughter started screaming in distress that her mouth was burning after eating a meatball. I tasted it myself — the sauce was fine, but the meatball was extremely spicy due to an overwhelming amount of pepper. We’ve ordered this dish many times and never had this issue. My 9-year-old also couldn’t eat it. I politely asked the waiter not to charge us for the meatballs, as the kids couldn’t eat them, but we were then left waiting another 20 minutes for the check with no return visit from the server and no water or ice offered for the child who was clearly in distress. When I finally went inside with the kids to pay, the manager told me she had tasted the meatballs herself and claimed they were “not spicy.” She insisted that this is how they are always made, completely dismissing my concerns—even though we’ve ordered them many times before without any issue. She also informed me that I would be charged for the handful of chips that were on the plate with the meatballs, because the kids had eaten them while we Waited for 20 minutes about 10 chips in a small white bowel . I explained that we had been waiting an unreasonable amount of time and that I was not going to pay for the chips. After some back and forth, she finally relented and removed the charge. It’s disheartening to have such a long-standing positive relationship with a restaurant end this way. I rarely write negative reviews, but the way this situation was handled lacked both empathy and accountability. Sadly, we won’t be returning.

The food is healthy, clean, and soooo yummy! You must give it a try! We're hooked! I'm really picky. They definitely have gluten free and vegetarian options.
