Gluten-Free Restaurants near Cerritos, CA

“We had a dinner get together with family about 20 people… the food was great but Alejandra who waited for us was phenomenal. Can you imagine 20 of us, but we never had to ask for another drink, she automatically filled our glasses and she had a smile all the time. She was good in assisting our gluten free family members on what food items was available. We didn’t have to wait long for the food to be served. The service was smooth, she was quick, polite, and patient…she is one of a kind…we all enjoyed our dinner and time with family. Thanks to you Alejandra!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Came here with my friend and the drinks were solid. I got the Osmanthus Tropic and Thai Tea for my friend. Solid Thai tea flavor and quite standard.Their fruit teas are way better though. The Osmanthus Tropic was flavorful and fruity with a deeper tea flavor. I got it with crystal boba. Id recommend this!“

“Beautiful delicious pastries and breads, also delicious milk teas and espressos 💕“

“Heritage Restaurant, Long Beach – A Well-Earned Michelin Star by Michael Broderick. In a city where “Californian” culinary ambition often plays second fiddle to casual dining, Heritage in Long Beach has carved out a place of quiet excellence, earning a well-deserved Michelin star. This intimate dining experience is a testament to ingredient-driven, technique-forward cooking, where flavors are both restrained, unpretentious, and deeply expressive. From the first bite, it was clear that Heritage excels at layering textures and flavors in unexpected ways. The meal began with an Amuse Bouche trio: a delicate prawn cracker topped with sweet Dungeness crab, a green leaf with another seafood salad that was to be eaten like a mini street taco, and balanced with the brightness and light crunch of pickled turnip. A seemingly simple couple of bites, but one that foreshadowed the precision and thoughtfulness of the courses to follow. To cleanse the palate, a mint tea infused with palo santo was served—a meditative interlude that was both refreshing and aromatic, setting the stage for the evening’s journey. The first official course, Crème Caviar, featured Russian Sturgeon Heritage Caviar and chive, a chilled preparation that was rich yet elegantly restrained. This was followed by Kanpachi Crudo, presented with carrot, ginger, and macédoine vegetables, offering a balance of clean ocean flavors against bright, vegetal undertones. Then came what I consider the star of the evening: a dish that fully captured the ethos of Heritage—Hen of the Woods Mushroom, topped in a “sunchoke stew” (crispy fried sunchoke) with fermented mushroom. For an additional $25, an indulgent shaving of black truffle took the dish to another level, transforming it into a sensory experience that evoked the deep, earthy satisfaction of foraging. The interplay of umami-rich elements made this course a masterpiece of textural and flavor contrast. The proteins that followed were executed with equal care. First, a perfectly prepared Rainbow Trout, sauted to perfection with a crispy layer of skin on one side, delicate pink flesh on the other, bathed in a delicate dashi and punctuated with bursts of smoked trout roe in a light creme sauce, which lent salinity and depth. Then, a 32-day dry-aged rib chop, a cut that can sometimes lean too “gamey” in the tradiinal steak house that cuts corners on a post aging trim, yet here was a revelation—tender, deeply beefy, but balanced. Accompanying the dish was sous vide endive, black garlic, and a shaving of Parmesan, which surprisingly lacked the usual sharpness, instead presenting a more rounded, delicate, nutty flavor. Desserts were a study in technique and balance. The first, a Grilled Strawberry with strawberry granita and Meyer lemon crème, was bright and refreshing, its layers revealing different expressions of cool and sweetness. Then came the Coco Craquelin, a delicate choux pastry filled with beurre noisette ganache and banana cremeux, meant to be eaten with the hands—a playful and interactive moment in the meal. Finally, a Sage Basque Cake, its subtle herbaceousness complemented by toasted hemp seeds and lemon curd, provided a grounding, crispy finish. Heritage is the kind of restaurant that doesn’t simply chase trends—it refines them into something personal, something intentional. The execution is confident but never showy, and the experience is paced with precision, allowing each dish to tell its own story. This is not just a meal—it’s a quiet, profound meditation on flavor, technique, and the land from which it all comes. Where other restaurant profess to be a true “Californian” style farm to table experience , Heritage is, without a doubt, a must-visit for anyone who seeks out truly exceptional dining in California.“

“We ordered a cake and cupcakes for my moms 90th birthday party. The cake and the cupcakes weren’t only beautiful, the were Delicious! Only thing bad was they disappeared quickly and I didn’t get to taste all the flavors! Thank you Patty!“

“I love that it's never super crowded when I go in, a helper/cashier always comes to greet me within a few seconds, the vibe is always nice and chill. I love the large varieties of cookies there and they're large! Every cookie and small pie has been absolutely delish! I just had a small key lime pie this past weekend that SO good!“

“This is the best bakery in town hands down no cap. While other bakeries overload their cookies with sugar and unesessary distractions, Foodology gets it right with an assortment of treats for everyone. I love the small cookie cubes as they're perfect for sharing or for the kids if you dont want to give them a huge portion.“

“Nick’s food and service doesn’t disappoint! Menu options are great, and they’ll take a classic comfort dish such as a meat loaf to a gourmet degree. Service is impecable too. Worth every dollar you spend here in every aspect! They have my respect and heart! ♥️“

“We just ate at the San Juan Capistrano restaurant and it was amazing. Staff is warm friendly and the food was on point! We came for dinner and my steak was done perfectly. My husband had the Bronzino cooked to perfection. I highly recommend!“

“The chocolate pistachio vegan don’t was the best I’ve ever had!“

“I was in a sour mood and the line was out the door wrapping around the building. But that all completely changed when eating the cheese roll. Best thing I've had in...so long 🥲

Looking forward to coming back later this week.“

“This place is always busy. We find seating there at the counter and we do not need to wait for 20 minutes. We love the bean soup? And the apple pie was great.“

“Hapa was the only cupcake place that had Champagne Cupcakes 🧁 and I called several other places. I was so excited to here them say yes we have some... and they threw in a extra one for us💗“

“Awesome place to visit for the entire family . Great service , food , and price . Also , super kid friendly and they accommodate dietary restrictions as well !“

“Just in town for work and looking for a place that had quality protein shakes for easy breakfast…found this place online so decided to check it out…What a find! This place is inviting, the team is great, and the shakes are absolutely amazing. I’ll be recommending this place to anyone I know in the area and those I know will be visiting. Thank you for making it an easy house for future trips!“

“I haven't dined at L'Opera in decades. We had a group of 6 in town for a meeting and we all enjoyed both the incredible food and the ambiance. We ordered the calimari appetizer, butternut squash ravioli, barramundi special, ricotta & spinach ravioli, rigatoni, house special salad, and a variety of desserts. Each dish was delicious and the service was attentive and friendly. Unlike many restaurants, it was quiet and we were easily able to hear each other. I will return soon!“

“The tea leaf salad is delicious. Wonderful service and an extremely clean restaurant“

“I came to this plaza today because I had to take a class over the weekend here and I'm happy I was stumbled upon this pretty sweet Thai spot. The atmosphere was chill and the service was pretty friendly. I got the khao soi chicken and it was quite tasty, tender chicken, thick noodles and crispy noodles, what's not to love. I was almost tempted to order some rice to soak up more of that awesome gravy. If I was in the area I would come back again.“

“This place is so good at the flavors it offers & the price! We got the key wot and vegetarian combo plate, with the tea at the end. Everything tasted great

The owner, who rang us up, was so sweet & welcoming.

Compared to prices in Little Ethiopia in LA, this was well priced. Cost us about $60 for everything with tax/tip

A must have if you’re in the area“

“Delicious!!! Always so good. 😋“

“This place is hidden in a little strip mall in what appears to be Vegan haven. It was a fun find for my allergy family members.

I ordered the margarita pizza for my kids. They liked the pizza fine, but it was my fault that they were disappointed. I didn’t realize they don’t like margarita pizza. Other than the wrong toppings, my kids liked it. They said the dough was perfect and would totally go back for a pizza topped with their favorites.“

“Amazing food. Delicious spring rolls. Baked goods.“

“Some of the best sushi I’ve had outside of Japan. The lunch omakase goes toe-to-toe with some very pricey sushi meals I’ve had at a fraction of the price. Total bill including a 720ml bottle of Juemon sake was less than a single person’s omakase elsewhere.“

“Great Burgers and Breakfasts“

“I like too much the Greek food at George’s , the lamb was delicious as well as the hole plate and wine. Every time that I come to LB from Brasil , I need going and try new culinary features. So yummy“

“Awesome got to meet the owner Robert thank you for being so kind. See u next week for more NSA flavors 🖒“

“straight to the point. this place is outstanding from the food to the service to the ambience 100% satisfied special thank you to our server gracie. she did a excellent job“

“Delightful, delicious, and surprising. They provide table service if you’re eating in, and then they cook it up fresh. The cook even helped me order since I was unfamiliar with a lot of the choices. One of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. Well done!“

“I absolutely love your Pastries, the Vanilla Oat Milk was a recommendation from one of the workers and it was a hit!“

“Came here for Brioche with ricotta, honey, and pistachio. Got two croissants which were Strawberry & cream and Bacon & onion for togo. For Brioche I requested for honey on the side because I prefer to adjust the sweetness by myself and it was perfectly scrumptious. Millions out of ten! Brioche itself was soft, buttery, and tasty so it complimented very well with ricotta and honey plus a bit crunchy from pistachio. Oh one bite and I was blown away. My taste buds were dancing happily. Let’s talk about croissants. Normally, I tend to like savory croissants more than sweet croissants. However, after I tried both of them, strawberry and cream is the winner. I really like the filling. I’m not sure if it’s mascarpone or something else that went really well with strawberry jam. It’s so freaking good! Bacon and onion croissant was not bad at all but as I stated earlier, strawberry & cream is the winner for me.“

“Delicious and authentic French food with great service.“

“Friendly staff. great pie“

Traveling. The place is clean and the setup is appropriate for chillaxing. The menu is perfect not many items but all of the right ones. The music selection was AMAZING! Being from the east coast i immediately started feeling the place with the playlist. THUMBS zip for whomever makes this because this was EVERYTHING. It’s perfect for coffee shop and has some soul in it. Highly recommend to stop in. Great vibes all the way.“

“I was looking for a great coffee spot and I found one that was on the way.

I had their matcha latte with whole milk and it was delicious. The right flavor and temperature. The place looks like a great spot to pull up a laptop and listen to some good music.

I’d definitely come back again to try their other menu items.“

“We are both vegan and gluten-free so twice baked Bakery really attends to our needs and our taste buds. We are so thankful for their creativity and openness to try new things and this way a lot of us don't have to give up good taste. Do by the items early in the morning because they do go fast“

“Food was more than what I expected. Delicious! Price is affordable. Staff is friendly and attentive. Over all, service was great“

“They have really good food“

“I wanted to try this bakery because I was in the area. It is a small bakery just pick up. There is no seating, but the bakery is clean and pleasant. I met the owner who was friendly and helpful. It was so nice to be able to eat a gluten free, low carb dessert. The items we did purchase were fresh, moist and delicious. It was a bit pricey, but when you like baked goods, and can’t have gluten in it and or are diabetic this is a nice solution.“
