Top 50 Gluten-Free Vegetarian Havens Across Austin

HARSH SHARMA

Really good food, decent price and atmosphere. Gluten free. The thoughtfully crafted gluten-free offerings, such as the French toast and well executed smashed potatoes, are a testament to the kitchen’s attention to detail. I really like the complimentary tap water scene they have on the patio

Delish!

100% gluten free Mexican food in the heart of Austin! The food was delicious, and I legit wanted to eat the whole menu if I had an endless budget. You can’t go wrong with any item.

Mason Hines

This bakery makes me so happy. I can eat everything on their menu, and I always stock up on bread when I can swing by. (Best tasting gluten free bread I've found locally.) Always excited to try their rotating aura cupcakes for a nice twist, but my favs are the strawberry abyss and their swiss rolls. We've ordered a cake from them, and they did a wonderful job. (We'll likely order again.) Go stuff your face and smash the pastriarchy in one fell swoop. You won't regret it.

Kailee Browning

The best cafe for anyone with anyone with allergies or diet restrictions. Gluten free options galore along with vegan butter and cheese! The best breakfast spot during a trip in Austin. The. One was eclectic and the staff were all very friendly.

Gluten Free waffles and golden tofu weekend brunch is incredible and so unique! Love everything I've tried. Over the years the service has been up and down, but the food is sooo good!!!

My family is obsessed with Rachel’s red velvet cake. My husband was recently diagnosed with Celiac and I found Sweet Charli Bakery when searching for a gluten free red velvet cake in Austin to continue our pre-Celiac tradition. We have now ordered 3 of these and would continue to pick this cake over one with gluten any day - it’s amazing! I can’t wait to try some of her other baked goods!

Marissa Escobedo

mind is mf blown. Lots of amazing gluten-free pastries, and absolutely amazing ice cream. The staff has great energy. 10 out of 10 all around.

I ordered a hibiscus margarita and cheese sticks with pepperoni, bacon and jalapeños with a side of marinara and ranch. I come here often and Jamie has been very sweet and attentive even during a chaotic rush. She makes sure all her tables are doing well and answers any questions about the menu. She offers gluten free pizza and desserts which are really good! Recommended trying their hubcaps, satisfies the sweet craving! Thanks for the great service Jamie! ☺️

GLUTEN FREE OPTIONS Food was delicious ! Service was excellent and our server was knowledgeable about gluten free options. Sadly the only option for dessert was the Frozen Yoghurt was gluten free. I didn’t end up getting it because i was too cold to eat something cold since we sat in the patio area.

Maggie K

Great food! And really busy, make a reservation for indoor dining. Carnitas and mango margs were my favorite. All gf!

Elena Delgado

Via 313 is my favorite pizza in Austin. You can never go wrong with the Detroit style pizza, the Detroiter is my go-to because of the double pepperoni. They also make really good meatballs and have an excellent gluten-free crust. Check out their Happy Hour!

Snehapriya V

What An amazing experience. Everything on their menu is freshly made, no overnight veggies all vegan and gluten free! The village is filled with trees and is a cozy vibe!

Tommy Lynch

Pet friendly We ate in the little shaded alcove. Every aspect of our breakfast was picture perfect and Erica's smile was sunshine. We frquent it for breakfast. Good gluten free options.

Skyler Vasquez

Finally! Gluten free pancakes that are perfect! I was so happy with my breakfast. I got the gf pancakes, fruit, and bacon. All were excellent. We went on a weekday morning and there was no wait. The staff were super sweet and the restaurant was clean. I’ll be back soon!

Cassie Dean

Sazan has good ramen! I am happy they have gluten free ramen although I wish the noodles were more similar to the non-gf version. The waitress, Gabby, was very friendly and attentive. The ambiance is nice although be prepared to be sitting right next to strangers. Overall, we had a nice time and will be going back!

Julio Oliva

Great gluten-free food!

Melissa Main-Munoz

Our favorite! Always fresh dishes & we LOVE the owners. Thank you Chef O & Amy! these tofu spring roles are perfect for HH & light meal. GF tamari as well. Service is on point.

Comedor in downtown Austin blew us away when we visited earlier this year! The modern Mexican cuisine is nothing short of a culinary adventure, with flavors that dance on your palate. As someone who's gluten-free, I was amazed to discover that the entire menu is gluten-free—this truly blew my mind! Chef Philip Speer's creativity shines through in every dish. The atmosphere is a beautiful blend of chic design and warmth, making it the perfect setting for a memorable meal. The service was friendly and attentive, making us feel truly special. If you're looking for an unforgettable dining experience, Comedor is the place to be!

Syrene Starchilde

Love the patience and genuine friendliness of the staff, and the food was good! You can tell thought was put into texture and taste. Nice and casual spot for your omnis, vegetarians, vegans, and gluten abstaining besties.

Lauren Sullivan

So glad to be living in a state where Ike’s is readily available. Always prepared with care, and the gluten free bread is so good that I’ve wondered if it was really gluten free before! Just ordered a bunch of sandwiches for friends, and they were impressed and satisfied. Ike’s, keep it up.

D T

10/10 experience! The vibe is so good here - gives a Tulum aesthetic. The service was fantastic. And the food! Fresh, delicious, flavorful. I went with my family and they all loved it! This is a fantastic place for gluten free folks - no gluten in the kitchen!

Mr. Natural has been doing veg in Austin since 1988 and it was honestly refreshing to visit a vegetarian spot that harkened back to a time when the dining format was as unique in a veggie restaurant as it was to find one at all. Point being there is a little learning curve to dining at Mr. Natural in my opinion. You order at the counter, which is the same order spot for baked goods (which are in three different locations), take out, dine in, juice, grab n go or soft serve. So you need to know what you want (definitely preview the menu online) before you step up to the counter and what your objective is. The staff is very, very helpful and will explain the salad bar (which is a whole other thing) and the validated parking situation (which is another). If you get stuff to dine-in, staff will bring it out and call out your name. They will bring silverware but you are on your own to retrieve water (by the salad bar). The other interesting throwback I am more thankful for is the food. Almost everything is made in house and is not overly sweet or salty. In this day and age of frozen beyond burger restaurants I could not have been happier. The mole enchiladas were excellent and I bought waaaay too many baked goods to go. I did not realize beforehand that Mr. Natural had the widest and best selection of vegan baked goods in the Austin area with many gluten free options and beautiful custom cakes! This place will go in my regular rotation and I highly recommend it for a breakfast option. *dog friendly patio

Overall, the atmosphere is fairly nice with very kind and friendly wait staff. True Food Kitchen has a well rounded menu with accommodates for vegetarian, gluten free, and vegan with clearly labled dishes for such. Additionally, the flavor profile is fairly diverse so if you are vegan like me, you will not be restricted to a single option and have a few choices to make.

David Cornwell

Amazing. Got the G-Free Pesto Chicken Club with fruit. Absolutely delicious. The pesto and caramelized onions are an awesome combo (if somewhat messy, haha). It was presented excellently-- even had a toothpick sign declaring it gluten free. Service was very friendly. Food didn't come out super fast, but it tasted like the onions were freshly caramelized, and that takes time. The atmosphere was great--a blend of retro diner and modern. I am thoroughly glad I stopped in today.

I'm sad that Counter Culture is closing but grateful that I was able to enjoy it for so many years. This place was ahead of its time, offering vegan options before they were readily available at grocery stores, food trucks, etc. The cashew cheezecake is amazing, and I ordered several of them for my birthdays over the years. The gluten free mac'n cheeze is also out of this world. Thank you, Counter Culture, for showing us that we don't have to torture animals (or our own bodies) to enjoy our favorite comfort foods.

Duane McKinney

Great donuts, lots of vegan and gluten free options. I wish I had found this place sooner. I recently tried something other than the donuts here, wow. The macarons are perfection. I went to pick up some as a treat for the office and also got myself a kolache. Everyone was raving about how good the macarons and cake balls were. The kolache was amazing, the texture and flavor were masterful.

Chevis LaBelle

I always have a lovely time here but writing this review to shout out our lovely sever Ariana. She was such a light and her energy made the experience that much better. The shrimp & grits is great and my friend who has a gluten allergy never has to worry when she comes here. 10 out of 10 will recommend.

Rebecca Hollington

Salty Donut is the best donut shop in ALL of Austin! They have so many options and even gluten-free for those that need it! It’s where I take all my friends who are visiting that want a sweet treat in the morning!

Jamie Smith

Did pickup takeout order. Timely and delicious! The gluten free cookie is the best I’ve ever had

Fatima Albattat

What a great place! I was astonished by how great the food is here, especially the gluten free options. I haven’t had fried chicken in years and I devoured it in seconds. It was absolutely spectacular. Our waitress was incredible as well.

Lauren Bem

Food was amazing as always! Cheesy Naan and cream cheese stuffed jalapeno Naan 😱 amazing 👏. Very delicious and has tons of gluten free and vegetarian options. Korma and Tikka were super yummy.

Joe Conte

Great place for food allergies, especially gluten-free and celiac disease. The menu has some great items, and everything is fresh and excellent quality. It's in a great area, so you can pop on for a quick lunch or dinner. Highly recommend 👌

Susan Hall

They make my gluten free pizza with other substitutions without complaint. Love their pizza!

Rose

I was really excited to try the Original Pancake House after reading positive reviews, especially about their gluten-free waffles. As someone with a severe gluten intolerance, I was eager to finally enjoy a decent GF waffle. When we arrived, I made sure to clearly specify my need for the gluten-free option when ordering. At first, everything seemed great. The waffles were delicious, and both my husband and I were impressed by how good they tasted, especially for a gluten-free version. However, a few bites in, I started feeling uncomfortable. At first, I thought maybe it was just me, but it quickly escalated. I had to rush to the restroom and realized something was very wrong. It turns out, after my husband checked with the waitress, we had actually been served regular, full wheat waffles—not the gluten-free ones I’d ordered. This is a huge issue, especially for anyone with serious gluten intolerance or allergies. It’s not just a minor mistake—this could have been dangerous. I am extremely disappointed, and this is something that should never happen, especially when dietary restrictions are clearly communicated. It’s hard to trust a place that can’t get something so basic right. I won’t be returning, and I’d advise others with gluten sensitivities to be cautious.

Lauren Johnson

I love this place and that they use healthier ingredients in their pizza. They use organic wheat for their crust, usually I have to eat gluten free but I am able to eat their crust. They also use olive oil which is much healthier the than the cheaper synthetic oils many restaurants use. I love pesto and their vegetarian pesto pizza is amazing! I also really enjoy their tomato sauce when I get a regular veggie pizza and like to add pineapple to it. Their custom cheese blend is great too!

Sandra Bucklin

Every dish we ordered was delicious. Alejandro provided very friendly and helpful service. His recommendations did not disappoint. We ordered the gluten-free cinnamon roll pancakes, absolutely delicious! Gluten-free eggs Benedict were a real treat and the hashbrowns were super flavorful without being too salty. I was super impressed with the very reasonable amount of time it took for our food to make it to the table. This was a much better experience than previous visits and wait time. Perfect Mother’s Day brunch.

Andrea Nettles

The gluten free burger bun is like biting into a brick. I might need to see my dentist after trying to eat it. Absolutely terrible.

Eric LaBrant

Aiden was an energetic host and server that kept the coffee mugs full. The food was outstanding. The bake potatoe omlette was an unexpected yum (the green onions really made the flavor pop). My sister had plenty of gluten free options, her pancakes actually had flavor. Don't care for the diner look but I am old school. I miss the cozy home feel of the original location.

Suzanne Stratton

Tristan was amazing. Great service and d very attentive to our gluten allergy

Hailey

Had the enchiladas, so good! They don't have flour tortillas, only corn. So lots of gluten free options! If you are a baby with spice, the salsa is spicy, lol. Drinks were good. We went on a Friday around 6pm and were able to be sat right away for two people.

Sammy Midler

I ordered a gluten free burger with extra mayo and had it delivered through favor only to take two bites and feel like the bun didn’t taste gluten free. Not only was it not gluten free and I have an allergy to it but there was also no mayo. I’m warning don’t waste your money on this establishment, they don’t care about your order. They aren’t careful with allergies. After two bites I’m going to be sick all night,

Stefanie Chafin

Love Via 313! Im gluten-free and this is by far my favorite place to get pizza from!

Bekah Harmon

**UPDATE** Loro management has gone above to remedy this issue and I have been really impressed by how they have handled everything. It makes me feel reassured that it is safe to eat there again in the future. I have loved this place for years but warning to anyone with Celiac or a gluten allergy, I ordered the salmon entree for pickup and marked gluten allergy and celiac on the order only to find out after getting home that the new seaweed salad that it comes with is not gluten free despite the entree being labeled gluten free on the menu. Unfortunately I couldn’t eat any part of my meal due to cross contamination so definitely call and confirm the website is up to date before placing your order :(

Samantha Farber

We went for happy hour and they’ve got a great selection. I’m gluten-free and they were well-versed on what precautions to take and able to answer any questions I had about modifications.

Shane Anciso

here's what you need to know before coming to this location there's a bunch of places here so it's shared parking so parking is 80% in the battle especially with dragon Slayer in the corner depending on when they're having events could pick up the whole parking lot and let alone the fact that you have next door a Vietnamese Indian and multiple other little fruity places Decatur they're different people's and territories and precision just down the walking distance The other hand this place is totally one of the best franchises I went first to run my location and I was even more impressed with this location they keep the place spotless and clean with plenty of tables plenty of paper towels at every table Nice cushion seats TVs everywhere playing sports and super fast Wi-Fi The customer support was absolutely phenomenal with a variety of people to make sure that accommodate the eb and flow of different people coming in and out putting in to go orders and pick up orders and eating in also plenty of options for handicap and then the restrooms as well commands and women's with spotless or plenty of options and stalls I got a freebie on the app to get a free shake how can they make a shake this darn good Nutella pretzel chocolate shake may very well be one of the best shakes I've ever had in my entire life I highly recommend it it's the ultimate dirty dessert to mess up your diet or just give you the calories and carbs to burn off tomorrow for your workout :) highly recommend this place as well for the variety of burger options that will fill you up along with Fry's options and of course brussel sprouts and let me again mention this something that a lot of people don't notice franchise is great for is their variety of Brussels sprouts which I highly recommend the Parmesan truffle brussel sprouts next time you're here to share with friends and family also plenty of beer and alcohol and options while watching your favorite sports game and also taking advantage of if you're on your healthier side your ginger homemade lemonade :) on the burger side of a huge fan of the Diablo if you're into hot and spicy and can even do gluten free and they're gluten-free bun hit the spot too

I like trains

Very quick service, and the best bowl I’ve ever had! The rice is so yummy, the sweet potato noodles are warm, and the tofu is perfect! I highly recommend the ginger sauce. Only a couple things aren’t gluten free (I’m gluten free), and it’s all clearly marked!

Caleb Borgstrom

Great place to eat especially if you need gluten free. They are very knowledgeable and only a couple things on the menu have gluten.

Ilona L

Fresh, delicious, and great gluten-free options! I love this place — the Nori rolls are super fresh and flavorful, and they actually have quite a few gluten-free options, which I really appreciate. Everything I’ve tried has been delicious and satisfying. Highly recommend for anyone looking for tasty rolls and a menu with gluten-free choices!

Em L

Went here for brunch and it was great! Pretty patio, and a mimosa flight is only $6! They have so many gluten free and vegan options, so there is something for everyone. Cute place
