Top 12 Gluten-Free Take Away Spots to Enjoy in East Amherst

First of all, the building itself lures you in; a tall red building smack in the middle of Transit Road halfway between Clarence and Lockport is definitely an eyebrow raiser to begin with. Every time you go by, you see people going into and leaving the building, and then you'll see people sitting out on a patio toward the back of the building. Eventually, after you memorize the name of the place, your interest piques, looking for somewhere new to eat. You look up a menu online and you see that they have quite the variety. I'm personally gluten free and vegetarian, though I do eat fish, so I thought that there were plenty of options for myself, and my weird, non-vegetable-loving-vegetarian fiance. (Okay, to be fair, he likes some vegetables, but he can't stand the traditional greens that go into Caesar salads and things of that nature.) Nonetheless, we went there one night looking to try somewhere new, and we had mixed feelings, but leaning more towards the positive side of those feelings. At first, I thought my serving size seemed small. I got the garden noodle bowl, with shrimp added, but I think inititually, the issue was that the huge plate/bowl was so large, that it made the amount of food on my plate seem smaller. It was by far one of the tastiest meals I've ever had. My only legitimate complaint was that it was a whopping $8 to add shrimp to my entrée, which would have been fine, if they didn't only include a measly 4 pieces of shrimp. They labeled them as jumbo shrimp on the menu, but to be honest, they were not that big. For that amount, I would hands down expect more of the add on I'm paying that much more for. My fiance got a veggie burger and said that was also very flavorful. We will probably be back at some point, and while the shrimp was also very good, and seasoned well, I'm not sure I would dish out that kind of money again if I were to order that entree again, unless, maybe, they provided more shrimp. It's definitely worth checking out though, if you've been thinking about it like we were.

I ordered a single meal and loved it so much that I decided to do the meal prep. It’s so hard to find vegan options that are gluten free, soy free and seed oil free and I’m so excited that this delicious option is available to us.

If I lived in Buffalo, I would eat here all the time, and I would try every gluten-free item on the menu. Gluten free and vegan options are very well marked and quite extensive. What I did have was the falafel. I eat a lot of falafel as I try and eat vegetarian 90% of the time. But I do eat some fish. There was a fish dish on the menu that looked amazing but, well, I couldn’t pass up the falafel. Anytime I go to a new restaurant that has falafel I have to try it because falafel can be so wide ranging in its deliciousness. This was some of the best falafel I’ve eaten anywhere. I also got the vegetarian or the veggie rice. It’s cooked with lentils and some olives and oh wow I wish one of my local restaurants back in Oklahoma made this dish. We also ordered the Labneh which was fantastic and came topped with oil and za’atar. My daughter had the mujadara and she absolutely loved it. She said it was perfect. It also came topped with a cucumber, green pepper, and tomato salad with mint and parsley. This dish also was exceptional. If you’re driving across the country for example going from Maine to Oklahoma, do yourself a favor and go a few short miles off of interstate 90 and treat yourself to a wonderful meal where you will be greeted by a very warm and friendly staff. We will take great care of you.

This place brings salads to a new level. So fresh and many choices. Pizza also offers two choices for gluten free crusts. The wings were also unique and enjoyable. Staff is very friendly. Restaurant was clean. Carry out containers and plastic wear was set out so you could help yourself. Really impressive place.

Great place to stop for tacos! Good atmosphere, staff was nice! Nice beer selection! Went for the gluten free option, was not disappointed! Chips, guac, salsa and tacos all good!

We found Grovers looking for someplace that had gluten free options. We saw the reviews for being the best burger in the 716. Grovers did not disappoint. The burger and gluten free roll were the best I’ve ever had. The service was fantastic. Highly recommend.

We loved our experience here. They shockingly had a lot of gluten free options and vegetarian. I got the vegetarian Greek pizza and it was DELICIOUS! The falafel was great too and they even brought out gf bread for our appetizer. The staff was very knowledgeable about my dietary restrictions and I loved it there.
