Gluten-Free Restaurants near Dana Point, CA

“Great meal. Christiana was friendly, attentive and had great suggestions. The steak and eggs was good… the steak had a slight gamey taste (kinda like lamb) but the flavor and tenderness were solid. The mushroom toast dish was amazing. Pizza was solid. French toast was just ok. Overall good experience.“

“Took my cousin and her son to Jack's this evening. We all had never been, and being beach town residents, we gave it a try. Orange Roughy for me with the spinach and mash, Rainbow trout and Ravioli for remaining dishes. All outstanding! One dessert (pictured) which tastes even better than it looks. Waiters were punctual and fantastic. A great dining experience. Recommended 5 stars.“

“This place is a retreat, heaven and happy place. I love it all. ❤️🌱“

“The service provided by the staff, from the front desk to valet parking and restaurant waiters, was exceptional, with a remarkable level of attentiveness.“

“Love the O.J., Croissant with Cheesy Omelette and Quiche was pretty good. Also tried the Custard filled pastry and Marble pound cake next day. This location was a much better experience compared to the Newport Beach location, employee here was friendly, helpful and smiled, which made us want to come back.

Out of all the locations, we visit this one the most. Ava hands down is the best! Always friendly and great to deal with.“

“Great ambiance, pets are welcome, super staff & eats! Lots of compliments check them out!“

“This is a great place for wine lovers. Their wine list has a great selection of commonly loved varietals but also lesser known/found wine varietals. The best part is you can either order one of their pre-designed wine flights or you can design your own wine flight from their variety of offered wines. They have new world and old world wines from a variety of wine regions all over the world.

I also love their boozy ice cream. I ordered a scoop of Carmel Old Fashion ice cream and was so delicious. Dangerously delicious.

For those that like wine they do have some cocktails and craft beer options. I haven't tried them but my friends liked their frozen rose and sangria.“

“Great Chinese food! Right at Laguna Beach, and the prices are pretty good! The food was flavourful and pretty authentic. I recommend going for lunch because the lunch deals are great, although the portion size is smaller if you get lunch deals. There was only one server and the service was a little bit slow, but it’s a really great location, and the outdoor seating is amazing.“

“I found AWG about a month ago. I have made 3 purchases since totaling 11 loaves and I don’t foresee this stopping. This has been the only way I can enjoy roast again, which previously was my favorite go-to simple food. It’s fantastic!“

“Excellent art-inspired bakery treats. Sean (sp?) and his team’s hospitality is top-shelf.“

“Came for lunch with my gran about a month after my grandfather passed. It was my gran's first outing since the funeral and i was worried but our server was this adorable silver haired woman named Rebecca. She had my Gran laughing the whole time. We ordered combos and the suggested jalapeño watermelon margaritas, which were spicy and refreshing. We needed a nap afterwards because we were too stuffed! My gran won't stop asking when we can go back. Thank you South of Nicks for lovely meal, and Thank you Rebecca, for helping a family member feel normal after tragedy. You are in our prayers“

“I love the Savour Pastry shop under the new ownership. I love the quality and taste of their products tremendously. My favorite items on the menu are Almond Croissant, Cream Broiler and Almond Cake plus all the rest of the pastry they make. I take their pastry to all my friends and to every gathering that I am invited to. I am so glad to support a local business, which is providing quality food and excellent services.“

“Beautiful restaurant in a beautiful hotel. Request a seat outside for a view of the pool and ocean. Food and beverages all top notch, but what really brings it to the next level is the service. Specifically, Seth. Incredibly kind and accommodating, he always goes above and beyond to make each experience something to remember. I could see him getting promoted through the ranks into management at the hotel, though we’d hate to see him leave the restaurant.“

“Amazing coffee and food. Very good ingredients.“

“Tracy and her team have exceeded my expectations both times I've ordered custom cakes. Not only do they look amazing they taste amazing too!“

“Good food, good prices, friendly staff, great view from upstairs.“

“We want to thank CPK for honoring Veterans today. They gave a delicious complementary supper tonight with a nice menu. The food was delicious. The staff was excellent. Service was fast. Manager thanked the veterans and gave us a handshake and a flag. He even had a table set for the missing soldiers , sailors, and Marines. Happy that everyone in restaurant was having a great time. Staff was all friendly and excellent. We eat here about ever other month. Very affordable, great pizzas and pastas“

“Great selection of flavors, high quality ingredients and so delicious! You won't miss the dairy 😉“

“Finally got to try one of their famous cakes. Delicious!!!! Had an online order and we were instantly greeted by a very nice young man working there, our cake was ready and we were good to go within a minute. I love the small business vibe they have and the enthusiasm from the employees. Will be back!“

“Amazing pizza and atmosphere! Can’t wait to come back again!“

“A traditional Americanized Chinese restaurant located in Laguna Beach, established in 1984, it has been a local favorite for years. The lunch menu is affordable around $15 per dish which includes fried rice, fried wonton, and fried chicken wing as sides. I ordered the house special beef and it was tender, sweet and tangy. The service was pretty good. We came with a big group of ~15 people on Saturday and they sat us down in the side room so we can have our own space.“

“Love the pastries and bought a cake“

“This was my second visit to a Moulin and while the food was again excellent and the location beautiful with the ocean view, my only disappointment was that it was a much smaller location and did not offer the same selection of bakery items and food.“

“The breakfast at Z pizza is surprising great. The food is very healthy, presented beautifully. It’s a unique experience. And the coffee is very good“

“This is hands down the best gluten-free bread I’ve ever had. It’s as close to traditional bread you will ever find. Unfortunately I don’t live close to her locations but it’s absolutely worth the drive! Highly recommend!!!“

“I ordered the Moulin Salad - chicken and pesto- excellent!“

“The food was excellent! I will definitely return.“

“Great food Great atmosphere“

“Good zaaa! I was hungry and in the neighborhood so I checked it out. Got to know Nicole the manager she was super bomb bomb bomb and told me where to go so I got it. Thanks again Tulik’s Floor Coverings.“

“I was originally planning to leave a 3.5 or 4-star review for Blaze Pizza, but something happened that encouraged me to change it to 5 stars. The quality of the pizzas was good for the price, although a part of the crust was slightly overcooked, and a bit more attention during baking would have helped. Still, overall, I’d say the quality was solid considering the price point.

In my order, I had included a Caesar salad, which I realized was missing when I got home. I called the restaurant to let them know, and after checking my email later, I saw they had refunded part of the cost. This level of customer service truly impressed me and convinced me to add that extra star.“

“Incredible food and service! My mew favorite place!“

“😁Delicious cookies - this company donated cookies to an event I attended last Friday. They are thick, just a quarter of a cookie is all you need. I will definitely buy them as soon as the store opens for my Broker Previews!“

“When I signed up for P.F. Chang’s Rewards they sent a coupon to redeem a FREE dessert! I never tried P.F. Chang’s before so this was a great way for me to discover a new taste!

The Red Velvet Cupcake comes with a candy-sweet drizzle to pour on top, but it was a bit sweet combined with the dessert. By itself though, it’s good.

As far as the cupcake itself, it was really tasty! I enjoyed this treat with my dinner and I’m glad I tried it.

I would give their Red Velvet Cupcake a 5/5. ✨“

“Lee was so helpful and knowledgeable!!! I order these once a week to bring to offices for work and I have never had better service! He went the extra mile to make everything perfect! And don’t even get me started how delicious these are! I love everything so fresh and tastes homemade best red velvet cake on the planet! The whole staff is so friendly and helpful and Lee gets 5stars I will be back soon! Thank you! Jenn“

“I just picked up my curbside groceries. The lettuce and spinach was fresh and beautiful. My peppers, tomatoes etc looked fresher than the market. I bought flour and yeast which is so difficult to find and eggs and milk. I will definitely order again. I would very highly recommend them. Thank you for providing this service!“

“My granddaughter said it was fantastic! She got 6 different flavors and wow she stated they all was delicious....“

“My only complaint is that the personal pizza was so delicious that I highly regretted not getting an entire medium pepperoni pizza all to myself, which I will be doing soon!

Quality flavor, texture and ingredients. Thank you!!“

“Wanted to give a shout out to Menchie’s Frozen Yogurt in San Clemente by Walmart. I went in to grab gift cards. I needed 5 $5 cards for party favors for my daughter's birthday. They were out of gift cards. The gentleman working there must have been the owner. He asked how many I needed. I said 5. He said today is your lucky day, opened his wallet and GAVE ME 5 gift cards for $5 each FOR FREE! Seriously, who does that?! I wish I had gotten his name. Wow Wow Wow. I will forever be grateful and def make sure we go there for yogurt. Thank you Menchie's!“

“I'm here right now. WFM Coffee & Juice Bar. Place is clean and comfortable. Staff is nice and courteous. But the wait is out of this world!!! If you're near enough to any other walk in , I'd call ahead and check wait times. I might die before getting to see a doctor.“

“Blown away by Susie Cakes! Great people, fabulous selection of cakes, cupcakes, cookies and accessories! Plus they made my poor planning and last minute need their very pleasant priority. Sweet service with a smile!!!“

“I would buy a juice here daily if it fit in my budget!“

“Butter + Cream made our wedding cake experience so painless! They quoted us a very reasonable amount for our cake, compared to other similar bakeries. The tasting experience was very simple as well, they gave us a box with their different cake flavors and fillings so we could pick and choose our flavor combos. The employee who helped me in person was friendly and easygoing. We picked the cakes up so I can't comment on delivery services. The cake was lovely, moist, flavorful, and I'm so happy with our experience.“

“Ordered on-line, ready when I got there. Staff is very friendly“

“Great coffee and delicious breakfast food items“

“Always a great experience here. Staff is so polite and friendly. Food is amazing and portions always require a to go bag. Highly recommend“

“What an amazing burger spot! The patio is absolutely beautiful, the servers and wait staff were sweet and helpful and the food was DELICIOUS. Big huge burgers and chicken sandwiches, my wife loved the sweet potato fries, I devoured my parm fries - all the food was extremely good. The pricing is very fair too, especially considering most restaurant prices these days. Instead of spending $30 for mid food at one of the big corps in the plaza, just spend $40 here and get waaaaay better food that'll actually fill you up. My only complaint is that the fry portions were pretty small, but that's a little thing compared to the tasty eats.“

“Everything about Nekter is amazing their shots, their juices, their cleanses. I love it all and the Ladera Ranch store, the Customer service is amazing.“

“I stopped by Palace Bakery today and was truly impressed by the quality and incredible taste of their pastries! Every bite was fresh, delicious, and made with love. The variety was amazing, making it hard to choose just one!

The bakery itself is clean and welcoming, and the staff was super friendly and professional. I’ll definitely be coming back, and I highly recommend Palace Bakery to anyone looking for top-quality, mouthwatering sweets! 🍰✨
