I went to Chicago on a road trip and came across this gem. Gave me and my party not just amazing service, but above and beyond service. They offer a bunch of gluten free options too, even asking before ordering to ensure its not a dietary or allergen concern for anyone in the group. Not necessary for our group, but a notable mention that stood out for those who might want that info. We were exhausted from a long day's exploration of the city and came in late at night to eat with someone in my party's craving for deep dish. Food was delicious and made fresh to order, the front of house team member was very attentive and gave us the best experience. Food was delicious, portions were more than (plenty for leftovers) and the presentation was beautifully done. We ended up stopping by again before we left the next day, with the same superb dine in meal from the team that morning. From our visits we got loaded fries, regular fries, buffalo wings, deep dish pizza (twice), fettuccine alfredo (twice), cheesy garlic bread and one of their gourmet toasted foccacia sandwiches. I can't speak highly enough of every bit of food we recieved. They deliver such quality ingredients and it shows. If you're in Chicago, this place is a must. I will definitely come back next trip.

From Indiana. Arrived in Hinsdale for a 3rd Party Veteran Affairs Doc Appt 3/26. Had some time to spare and Googled the town. Sweet Ali’s showed up, saw Gluten-Free Bakery & had to see this place. Purchased: Dbl Choc Cookies & Banana Loaf w/ a complimentary Lemon Cake. Friendly staff. Excellent treats. Enjoyed the conversations and hospitality. Overall a neat little town full of nice folks.

An outrageously delicious & positive experience eating lunch here today. Mia took exceptionally good care of us – my mom is celiac, and was so thrilled with the level of attention and care she got. On top of that, the food was showstoppingly good! The chicken kebabs, falafel, hamachi and hummus were all 10/10.

Bartender was great, staff were great! One star for the gluten free pizza crust. It was terrible. Rice paste is what is used and that made for the crust to be “chewy” while hot. When cooling down, pizza is rock hard. Maybe they should try using cauliflower crust.

Ashley Kauffman

Gluten free deep dish!!! And gluten free bread too!!!

Tabatha Phillips

Gluten, Vegan, and Vegetarian friendly! Soooo good! Loved it so much. Will return! Get the baked cauliflower!!

Corie Anderson

Always great! They do the best gluten free pizza crust around.

Pasta. Fancy dinner.

We drive all the way from Lake Geneva, Wi (1.5 hours) to come here. I have celiac and their gluten free pizza is phenomenal. The true star of the show is the Eloté dip- you will be craving it for months after you have it! Whenever we’re in the area for a concert or trip, we make sure to stop. Highly recommend!! One of the best pizza places we have been to!

Be careful if you have a food allergy. I am celiac, asked for gluten free fish and chips, but I got food contamination. It made me vomit shortly after finishing.

Irena Savic

Delicious gluten-free burgers! Knowledgeable and family-owned.

Sarah W

Dedicated GF restaurant with the best bowls! I love the fan favorite.

Sarah W

Great tapas restaurant with a marked gluten-free menu. Just check with your server about cross contact issues. I love the brussel sprout salad and the chirizo wrapped dates!

Monica Dempsey

Amazing- modern restaurant and attentive service. Plenty of vegetarian and gluten free options, and filling portions. The crispy potatoes deserve special mention- my group will be returning to try everything on the menu.

We were in Chicago for business. My friend has severe allergies, gluten, nuts, strawberries, eggs. We selected Mon Ami Gabi based on options for gluten free. We made reservation and arrived about 20 minutes early. Entrance to the hotel is gorgeous. Front desk was friendly and helpful. Making sure we parked at the correct valet location (there's 2 one for residence one for restaurant. They brought us to the bar while we waited for seating. Barkeep was very friendly and very efficient. We didn't wait more then 20 minutes for our table. We were seated and we ensured they were aware of the concerns for gluten and other allergens. Waiter already was aware thanks to OpenTable reservation, I'd added a comment so they'd know ahead. They were extremely considerate pointed out the dishes that are GF. We skipped an appetizer and ordered dinner. The wait staff were friendly without being overly. Food was delivered quickly and cooked to perfection. I ordered medium rare beef and my friend ordered salmon almondine(without the almonds). Food was flavorful and delicious. Not only was our server attentive but the other staff ensured we were comfortable, well taken care of, and had everything we needed. They cleared dishes and glasses quietly while you ate without being distributive and made sure the water glasses were always full. I'd highly recommend the restaurant if you're in the area. For a Thursday the place was Busy. Reservations highly recommended. A mixture of date nights, family dinners (with younger kids) special occasions. Some folks were dressed up others in flannels and it all worked.

I was highly impressed with this restaurant. If I could give more than 5 stars for service I would! We looked up reviews on this place and had chosen it because two of our road-trip party are celiac and we also have other allergies (soy and peanuts). The reviews reported that they dealt with that situation well. We were NOT disappointed. We explained our allergies and our server diligently ran back and forth to check with the kitchen. When we accidentally ordered something that included an allergy ingredient, she came out and let us know and gave us an alternative that would be safe for us. The chef actually made two of the meals from scratch so that it would be safe. All three meals were incredible! Hats off to the wonderful chef and server!

Busy place, get on the waiting list! Amazing gluten-free breakfast! Lots of bacon, really impressed, absolutely delicious.

Maria Fernanda Flores

The Gluten Free option is quite good, really recommended 10/10 ⭐️

Rachel Mandelker

100% Gluten free and so so good! You can bring home taquitos frozen or they can heat them up for you - loved it!!

April Henry

My celiac family stops here whenever we visit the zoo. ☺️

Angela Spaeth

The entire bakery is gluten free & they take precautions with other allergies as well. Everything is AMAZING! Every time I go I usually get 1 of everything thats dairy free/vegan (and gf of course) and I am never disappointed. The owner/head pastry chef, Lorena is so sweet! She will make your vision come to life for custom orders!

Ella Patino

Fantastic GF options - so accommodating!! Food was very good!! Will be going back

Taylor Nicole

smack dab is one of my new favorite breakfast spots! staff was so kind and friendly which made the experience that much better. as a gluten free girly breakfast sandwiches are hard to find in the city and they have two different kinds of gluten free bread that is amazing!!! love that they are so gluten free and dietary restriction friendly. will def be on my regular rotation now :)

C. Lor

I am so happy we stopped here for dinner. The staff were knowledgeable and so kind to me when I told them of my gluten and dairy allergies. Service was amazing and the food was sublime. I missed eating Italian for fear of cross contamination but they reassured me pasta were cooked separately. What a lovely place! I will be revisiting when I'm back in town. Edit: Forgot to add, my husband got an Amaretto sour and he said it was the BEST one he's had.

Letty Terrazas

Great GF Pizza. Dough is soft and has a wonderful taste. Staff is really nice. Worth the 45min drive.

Michael Baron

Rice noodles and knowledgeable on gluten free broth and other items

Anthony J. Buchberger

Am the food is gluten free. The owner is awesome.

Brittany Edwards

We can’t say enough wonderful things about Legacy Pointe! Our daughter was diagnosed with Celiac Disease last year so this one of the only places we feel fully comfortable eating at in town. We have been many times and we always have a great experience. Today was our best yet! Kierra was our waitress today and she is wonderful. We have had her before and she is always great! My husband loved the Nashville hot chicken sandwich and I got my usual, the hamburger ponyshoe. My girls got the kids burgers and the best fries!! This time we decided to finally try the flourless chocolate cake. It was amazing and my daughter absolutely loved it and it made her so happy, I about cried!

Nova Sweeney

Chicken pot pie GF is to die for. My family has been ordering from this place weekly for almost a year now since we found it.

Isabella Dourigan

amazing donuts best gf ive had

Julia Summers

By owner: "We are a dedicated Gluten Free Kitchen! We cater to many food allergies. We are a scratch kitchen, so most dishes can be modified or adjusted. We look forward to serving you!"

We wanted something quick and easy close to our hotel. We found food revival, an indoor food court. I chose art of Dosa, where everything is gluten free and vegan and absolutely delicous! Server was so helpful and made suggestions. I chose the Buffalo Dosa and it came with the greatest spicy sauce.

Regina Torres

This British bakehouse is phenomenal, personable, and not insanely priced. I'm not even gluten free and I loved it. My friend has celiac disease and is so limited when it comes to wheat eats so we went there as a small group to try it out and have some weekend fun. We each drooled over everything we ordered, (and I have a professional baking background so I'm pretty discerning)... Lemon bars, raspberry cake, other vanilla cake of some kind, sprinkled donuts and lattes. Go get them. Now. You're welcome. When I'm in the area again I will definitely be back for another sugar rush.

Hallie Meunier

Genuinely some of the best food I have had in a long time! So fresh and delicious. Staff was so friendly and it was such a cute vibe. I also have celiac disease and need to eat strictly gluten free and they were so knowledgeable about cross contamination and there were only 3 things on the whole menu that couldn’t be made gluten free. This will definitely be a regular spot for me!

Makara Gerber

What a gem! As a gluten free individual, it has been so many years since I've been able to have a true Chicago style pizza. Visiting Chicago and being able to find a pizza joint that offers a gluten free option (that isn't thin crust) made my year! Just because we are gluten free does not mean we don't want to enjoy the glorious food different destinations have to offer. Thank you Chicago's Pizza! I only wish I lived closer and could visit more often!

nichole greening

Everything was great from the staff to the excellent food. Freddie was amazing and broke down the menu for what can and cannot be gluten free. Very knowledgeable staff and they know what celiac is. They take extra precautions to make the gf food safe. Highly recommend the cheesy bread sticks and Detroit style pizza. Almost everything on the menu can be made gluten free!!!!

Kay S

Stopped by here for a late lunch after a quick search for gluten free options in the area. So glad I did! Service was prompt and the staff member working the counter was super nice and helpful. Lots of great options, clean dining area and restroom, I will be coming back.

Anna Keller

Ingrained is my favorite gluten free bakery in the city! I’ve never tried anything I didn’t love. All of the ingredients are so fresh and you can tell everything is made with love!

Bernadette bianca Viñeza

I had pasta al limon with salmon ( gluten free) I chose zucchini as alternative for noodles, it was tasteless and the sauce is less dense like it's a soup unlike the picture, salmon is ok it wasn't burnt and good seasoned. Please correct it. My husband had a BBQ chicken it's good we like it.

Todd Nahigian

BIBIBOP is by far my favorite restaurant. I Am gluten-free and egg free and I love everything that they serve. The way they prepare the avocado, is the best I've ever tasted. When they introduced the crispy chicken, things even got better.

Allison Jones

Gluten free options are great. I've eaten here twice and haven't been sick. GF food comes out with marker. Symptomic Celiac

Stephon Berry

Enjoyed the Nadine, just substituted the pepperoni for chicken and my partner had a gluten free pesto chicken pizza. All in all a good dinner. I'd recommend for those with disposable income as it's not cheap, but it's not exorbitantly expensive. A single small pizza in enough to fill one person

Nancy Richards

Make a reservation! Always busy. Adorable outdoor patio. Gluten Free menu. Shared the gluten free baked Ziti and a gluten free pizza. Food and drinks were amazing!

Katie Rylko

I've been wanting to try this place for some time and finally made it! I have to eat gluten free not by choice. This is literally the first place I've ever been to where I can eat everything on the menu! Never had this option before this is awesome now I just wish there were more locations this one is 30 minutes away and not in a direction I typically go. I ate here with my 10-year-old and 12 year old. We each got a bowl. The lemon turmeric rice did not disappoint. One of my kids tried the glass noodles they were very good and fun. My kids did not try any of the sauces they thought overall there was a slight spiciness to the dish without adding anything extra. I tried the teriyaki it was good. Oh and don't forget the free miso soup, lovely bonus. The broth is excellent.

Jazmin Saban

Excellent place, great option if you have any dietary restrictions, it is all dairy free, gluten free, I loved it! I recommend
