We had an outside table, the food, the weather, the drinks were fabulous! We were enjoying everything so much we forgot to take before photos! So many gluten free options! We will be back!
Best pasta joint in LA! Been coming here for over 20 years. When I discovered that they had GF options, I literally did a victory dance because I didn’t have to give up on one of my favorite places. I wish they’d make their tiramisu in a GF version…that’d make this place perfect.
Shockingly less then average- gluten, dairy, egg, soy and taste free. I would have said something but since we came here for a happy occasion I just left to never come back.
Found this little cafe on Christmas Eve and we're glad we did. Went for breakfast. The food was very fresh and tasted great. Coffee was also very nice. Plenty of gluten free options so everyone is covered. Service was fast and attentive.
I love Sweetfin! I have celiac so it is such a pleasure to eat at a restaurant where I do not have to worry. Our meal on Sunday was perfect! That being said, this particular location is hit-or-miss on getting the order correct. The Culver City location is my favorite - the manager and the whole team go out of their way to make your meal perfect. The SM is just closer to us.
Tocaya Organica is such a special weekly tradition! Their tacos are healthy and hearty. And a great value on Tuesday ranging from $2.50-$4.00. Lots of options for every dietary need. They have a ton of gluten-free options, including the delicious churro waffles. Thank you to Juliet for always making our family feel so welcome!
Pro Tips:
- Request your receipt as there are sometimes food errors…give them grace as Tuesday’s are busy!
- Prepare to wait a bit for your meal to arrive
- Parking can be tough in the area, so plan ahead
Honestly, I don’t think I saw this place at its full potential, but I will give you an overview of my personal experience. Hopefully you can find It useful.
Food: I stumbled upon Bru’s Wiffle while looking for a restaurant with French toast. This place has a number of French toast options. I chose the Honey Poppers French Toast. These are bite-size crispy chicken in housemade siracha & louisiana hot sauce. I wasn’t impressed. The French Toast was thin and flimsy. It tasted like It was made on sandwich bread. I should’ve known better than to get chicken poppers. I asked for a of chicken thigh. It was juicy and crunchy. Had I known better, I would’ve chosen this chicken option to begin with.
Next, I ordered an avocado toast topped with eggs. The melted cheese is a great addition to this dish. However, I prefer sliced avocado rather than the avocado spread.
My partner had the Basil Pesto Crispy Polenta Avocado Toast with egg. This is a gluten free meal. The egg is an add on to both Avocado toast options.
Beverage: This place has a Watermelon Mimosa that I’ve been trying to imitate for the last four days. It was sweet and fruity.
Payment: Bru’s Wiffle doesn’t accept American Express. As an Amex Gold Member, one of the benefits of the card is the 4X points at restaurants. If this was a quick order to go, I wouldn’t mind. But, on an $150 bill, knowing this sooner would’ve probably impacted my choice to visit.
Overall, I think that this restaurant had some options would be pretty tasteful. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to try them during this visit.
This is a long time favorite of mine .. their Spanish latte... Sooooo good .. especially the strong version... Their food is ok... They run out of healthier options pretty early, even at 9.30am, such as breakfast burrito gluten free tortillas... So go there early if you need or prefer certain options...
If I could give this place a negative review I would. They risked my health…I told them that I have a dairy allergy and celiac disease and I specifically asked for no cheese or sauce of any kind and for gluten free bread. I thought I could trust this place to make a simple sandwich, and they had cheese in my sandwich. How can you trust an establishment to make do anything right with their blatant apathy towards their customers and their health.
A chill place to get quick and cheap Caribbean takeout food. There is no alcohol and lots of gluten free and vegetarian options! Very delicious. As a starter, try the nachos with bean paste… hmmm!
The sushi was incredible. I really enjoyed the Toro Jalapeño roll. The freshness and taste were outstanding. They were very accommodating to my gluten-free needs and even offered gluten-free soy sauce. The service was quick and efficient.

Great gluten free options from bread on sandwiches to gf pancakes, the staff was educated and informed about gf. Bread was great and pancakes were so good!!
Great service. I have come several times and the staff have helped me choose a gluten free item. The breakfast is good and this time I had a more traditional meal and it was flavorful too. They have vegan and gluten free options.
When I went to Mel's, I was happily surprised that they had both gluten-free and vegan options. Also, my waiter, Jason, was very attentive to my needs.
We dined for the first time last evening. We had come to take advantage of Restaurant Week and try out the restaurant. We were disappointed when our server said EVERYONE at our table of four had to participate in the Restaurant Week menu . Our one dining companion has numerous food allergies (gluten, dairy, eggs and yeast) so she was not able to partake. She only wanted the octopus and a side salad. I was disappointed you were not able to accommodate us so we ended spending more money than we needed. Also as a side note the noise level was very high which made it difficult to talk across the table.
Gunn is an amazing, thoughtful, and creative chef! I rarely write reviews, but Satdha is absolutely my #1 favorite restaurant in LA, and this place is a must try, especially for vegetarians and gluten free folks. The endive cups, snap pea salad, and beet-dyed noodles are my absolute favorites, though I honestly love all the dishes. They're all so unique, bursting with freshness and vibrant flavors. The names of the dishes may not sound sexy, but I promise you, the taste is truly delightful. Each bite feels like a little celebration, a joyful experience. I just adore and appreciate this restaurant and all the people involved.
Such a great Cheesecake Factory! Manager was incredible. Food is always enjoyable and so is the cheesecake 😊 they have a bunch of gluten free options as well as gluten free cheesecake options!
The most amazing bread outside of Europe! If you love eating real and healthy bread, come here. They are using Italian flour to make their dough and you can taste the quality! My friend who is allergic to gluten, can eat their country loaf. A must try!!
We’re visiting from Maryland and stopped for lunch today. Our server, Lucas, was great and helpful in pointing out the gluten-free choices. Our whole family enjoyed their meal and would highly recommend!
I've wanted to eat here for a long time and it was worth the wait! It's a really fun place to enjoy outdoor brunch on Montana Avenue in Santa Monica. They have a few gluten-free and vegan options. It's quite tiny, so expect to wait for the restroom as there is only one.
Went to Caffe Delfini for dinner with my friend who was in town visiting. I am celiac so was happy to find out there was a lot of gluten free options on the menu and the staff was very accommodating to ensure I had a great meal and experience! We got the beet salad as a starter and split pesto pasta and carbonara as our mains, everything was absolutely delicious and the staff was so kind! We chose not to get dessert but they brought over gluten free cookies complementary with our check and they were really good! Overall would come back to Caffe Delfini!
It’s amazing Has a huge menu From brunch chicken and Waffles to tacos Pizza Pasta Salads you name they Got it and if your vegan they have a page just for you and Gluten free options galore and a full bar Crazy good food and service
My daughter and I stopped by this place while we were killing time before the Barbie movie began, so we decided this was the spot to sit down and eat dinner. Good decision as the quesadilla and the tacos were really good. I ordered the gluten-free quesadilla and I wish I could have brought the tortilla shell that he used home because that was the best taco shell ever. And I mean ever. Better than gluten, even!
The customer service was great, and I don't even know how he did it by himself with all those people in there, but he somehow remained attentive to our table as well.
My only complaint is that I wish they weren't so shy with the seasonings, but at least we had the two choices of sauces to fill in the gaps.
Stefano’s has been here for a long time. I love that you can stop in for a slice, or a whole pie. They offer gluten free options that take about 20 minutes to prepare but are well worth the wait. They also offer baked wings that are tender and great! Service good and the pizza flavors are pretty typical for American pizza, the crust is a slightly crispy.
The people watching is great if you sit on the patio. Stop in for a whole pie to get the best experience!
Ok this place has amazing food!! Their portion sizes are excellent and everything is super fresh organic and farm-to-table. They use this amazing seeded bread from a nearby bakery and local pasture-raised eggs that are bright orange.
Go for the Niçoise salad for a tasty classic.
Also the avocado mousse dessert is a great gluten-free option and to die for! The outside seating is lovely. A great lunch spot for sure.
Great experience at Patrick's Roadhouse. It is a very laid back restaurant with fun, very unique decor.
We sat outside, there were heaters but it was pleasant out so they turned them off for us.
My friend had gluten free pancakes and I had the breakfast burrito with no meat along with a slice of pie. We did wait a while for the food but it was worth it. Prices are perhaps a little high but the food is worth it.
I'm in love with the Lemonade Restaurant, my number one place I had to stop at was Lemonade when coming to Cali. Love it so much id go back this weekend 🤣 on a serious note theyre beverages are quality and pretty cheap. The food there is very healthy and they have gluten free and vegan options as well. I would totally recommend at least trying this place fan or not of the lemonade drink. Oh and if you guys see this please add a location in colorado!
Massilia is a French restaurant nestled in Santa Monica near third street promenade, featuring a cozy interior and an intimate patio.
Our group ordered the steak frites and lamb shank and both were quite delicious. Unlike most steak frites, the steak was thicker and you were able to select the temperature as well. The fries were perfectly crispy and deliciously seasoned. You have the option to get a chimichurri or bearnaise sauce, both of which are excellent options.
The lamb shank is a gluten free meal and was so soft it pulled right off to the bone!
In terms of cocktails, La Française was a clear winner. Anything with St. Germain is an obvious choice.
Our server was very friendly, also French, and such a delight throughout the meal service.
I definitely recommend dining here for modestly priced options with great ambiance.

A DIVINE FLAVOR POCKET TO GO. Vegan, Non-Vegan, Gluten Free, all of them deliciousss. The service is so quick, the menu is full of delicious options, and the prices are exactly what they need to be. Do yourself a favor and have a stop here.
We came with our child who has celiac disease, and they have a dedicated gluten-free fryer — which is a rare and wonderful find. The place was packed, but we discovered a standing area along the bar near the kitchen staff and servers where we could still enjoy our meal. The staff was incredibly kind and attentive, and the food… simply outstanding!
It’s clear they care deeply about both the quality of their food and the needs of their guests. Highly recommend — especially for families managing dietary restrictions.
Ordered a KBBQ Steak Bowl and added mushrooms on UberEats for pickup. Didn't open the bowl until I got home and saw that they added mushrooms, but there was no steak. Scoured the entire bowl for any hint of steak but there was none :(
The rest of the bowl was okay, but some protein would've been nice to tie it together.
It's nice that a majority of the menu is gluten-free.
Excellent house-made gluten-free crust!
We had take-out from Prime, and their gluten free pizza with non-dairy cheese was excellent.
Delivery was quick and friendly. Will definitely order again.
