Gluten-Free Restaurants near Kensington, CA

“My daughter and I love the Fried Sage Pizza and the Strozzapreti Bolognese and my twin grandsons love the Pepperoni Piza.“

“Good people, good food, easy going place ... what's not to like about it?“

“Really great spot with delicious and healthy options. I went for the mixed grill, and the portions were generous and satisfying. The Seedlip non-alcoholic drinks were an unexpected and delightful surprise!“

“I love this place. This is my second time eating at this cafe. I got the beef empanada and peanut butter Acai. The drip over coffee was strong (which is what I was looking for). There are many other things I hope to try on the menu in the future.“

“We went last night on 10/10/2024. Claudia was our waitress. She did a wonderful job,and her customer service was excellent. We had one issue with a plate. She and the manager took care of it. It wasn't big, but I appreciate them listening. The restaurant has a great atmosphere for a couples outing or dinner. They strive to have good dishes“

“Great atmosphere and delicious food! Outdoor dining, too!“

“awesome a must try, this is a hidden gem“

“Wow…just wow. Several of my friends recommended that I try out Loquat when I moved to San Francisco, and I can absolutely see why — it fully lives up to the hype with its outstanding pastries, great coffee, and amazing vibes. The pastries, to quote a French friend, “rival the ones available in Paris,” although I’m not sure what she’s comparing them to given everything is Mediterranean inspired.

For a savory treat, I adore their feta and eggplant boureka, which has a remarkably rich and flavorful filling encased in a buttery, flakey shell. It’s topped with a very generous helping of poppy seeds, so be prepared to have seeds in your teeth for the rest of the day, but it’s 100% worth it.

They have tons of amazing sweet treats, ranging from croissants to cakes, but their classic is the salted chocolate babka muffin. It is literally to die for — the bread is perfectly flaky, with just the right amount of butter to make it rich but not overwhelming. The dark chocolate is wonderful and not overly sweet, but any sugar is balanced out by the salt. Genuinely the only thing wrong with this is that I can’t have it every single day.

Beyond the classics, they also have a rotating set of seasonal items that are all wonderful. I overheard a server chatting with the table next to mine and describing a seasonal dish featuring a summer Italian hot pepper. She got the brunch version of the dish with full peppers, eggs, and bread, but they also have a pastry-fied version in the form of a boureka. Literally everything is outstanding, and I cannot wait to make my way back here!“

“One65 was an amazing discovery on our trip to San Francisco. Having spent the first half of our life in Montréal, Québec, Canada where it was hard to find a bad restaurant, we were absolutely amazed by this Bistro which looks more like a high end dining experience. The menu online & the photos attracted us to this location but we were amazed by the well timed service, the crisp white tablecloths, the table setting and the pleasant and calm atmosphere. My choices of charcuterie platter was perfectly sized; the chicken & the pork rillettes where a wonderful surprise. My husband had an onion tart with the crust as perfect as they get & which I envied. He loved his halibut, moist and tender and I raved over my grilled half lobster, so tender that I found myself munching on the shell parts as well. My bread pudding was not of overwhelming size & perfectly flavored. Don chose the Affogato (scoop of vanilla gelato « drowned » with a shot of hot espresso). We wanted to go back today but they are closed on Sundays.?“

“What a lovely surprise to find such tasty, healthy food so close to home, friendly staff, on time! Lightly cooked but high-protein and *yummy*“

“We stayed in San Francisco for 10 days and went to eat breakfast here almost every day. We tried almost everything on the menu and it was amazing. It's har to chose a favourite but I'd go with Rosemary Chicken With Bacon and BLTA. The juice was also very, very good.“

“A very cozy place in the financial district. Even though we went on a weekend, there were still a lot of people working there. Their pour over coffee is reasonably priced and they also provide coffee beans in the shop. I like the paintings they have inside. The coffee also comes with a postcard telling us where the coffee beans come from and the history, which I think is very nice. If you like coffee, I recommend giving this place a try.“

“I've been here a few times and have not been disappointed. Every flavor I've had has been amazing.

My favorite is the key lime cupcake because it has lime curd inside, a graham cracker crust bottom, and lime zest on top. PERFECTION!

A similarly tasty cupcake is the lemon cream pie.

The cookies and cream is also really good.

I also enjoyed the double chocolate flavor.

And the best thing is that they have locations in ATL, so I can have them when I go home!“

“I've tried everything Taco's Oscar has ever made and it's awesome. Love to see a place that treats vegetarian offerings with respect - woe to my mental health when the seasonal sweet potato taco is phased out. P.S. please bring back the romano bean taco!!!!!“

“I just love this local Berkeley gem. Friendly, warm vibe where everyone is welcome. You can tell a lot of thought and care went into the place. The coffee is THE BEST, the pastries are amazing. From the coffee made with care and the super nice baristas to the comfy/welcoming/inclusive atmosphere, Bench Café has it all. My go to breakfast items are the Spinach Feta Empanadas and the Date Latte. P.S. the music adds a nice touch to the place.“

“Very nice place, amazing attention, I love it.“

“Such a magical place!!! Great food and the owners make you feel at home. Love it!“

“#1 Fan ~ The food is amazingly delicious and healthy at moonbowls. I get a bowl at least twice a week, have turned many friends onto moonbowls, and have even had our staff lunch catered by them. I will say the pickup experience is a little weird but I'm slowly getting used to it. Using Doordash makes it super convenient and helpful. Regardless of the latter, the food taste and quality far outweighs the pickup experience so it is what it is.

Vegetarian options: Do it!!

Dietary restrictions: Most diets should be able to find something on the menu

Parking: This is a pickup location only

Kid-friendliness: Nope, but you can order for them if they like what's on the menu

Wheelchair accessibility: Not sure“

“Upbeat generous dude with tasty wholesome food.“

“I love the taste of the food. Organic beef kebab rice bowl was die for it! Must try“

“rice pudding, cookies, borek,“

“Please do yourself a favor and try their wings. Absolutely delicious. Super crunchy and full of flavor. They claim to have to hottest wings in the Bay Area. I’m too much of a chicken but I dare you.“

“Ordered half a dozen and couple of chocolate donuts from them. I wish they would have been less sugary and slightly bit healthier but I don't think there is a lot of offers available.

Other than that,
Reasonably priced and quite tasty“

“healthy portions of healthy food, how can you beat that?“

“Deliciously wonderful unique food.“

“Went here for the bottomless brunch ($22 for bottomless per person). The drinks were good and the food was good too (at least 3 vegan options — 10/10 RECOMMEND THE VEGAN FRENH TOAST!). Service was good initially but they became stingy and didnt even fill the carafe at the end. Overall good experience. They auto gratuity 20% and we tipped on top of that but something to keep in mind. The place itself is relatively small and quite busy so definitely recommend getting a reservation“

“I’ve recently cut out all dairy and pretty much all meat, although I will make an exception for special occasions and eat meat seldomly. anyway the options here are delicious if you’re a vegan! Their menu is full of tasty choices. U couldn’t be happier with my recent door dash orders“

“Pork momo and saucy sautéed shrimp 🍤“

“All about the pizza here since it's basically all they serve (there is a daily salad as well). One pizza per day and they make a vegan version. Order at the counter before getting in line and then it should ~ be ready when you get to the register to pay. I like the crust quite a bit and they use Butcher's Son "cheese" so that is a treat. It's got that sour / bready feel / finish and a little crunch that is perfect. Definitely get the green sauce to dip your slices in. They've expanded the outdoor seating and it holds a lot more people now. Nice space + the live jazz every night. Very popular. Highly recommended.“

“Hidden gem for new parents. This place is awesome for lunch. They have a few dishes eat day and they change it up frequently. I’ve never gone and not wanted what I’ve seen - and I’m picky.

Great place to meet up on maternity leave.“

“I eat lunch here regularly and find the service to be consistently friendly and attentive. The food is fresh and tasty— I usually have one of their generous banh mi sandwiches. The atmosphere is warm and the other customers seem happy to be there. And it’s a great vantage point for watching the Solano Avenue street scene.“

“Nach drei Wochen „Roadtrip“ durch die USA haben wir uns gefreut dass in der Nähe unseres jetzigen Hotels dieses Restaurant/dieser Biergarten ist. Gut zubereitetes, ehrliches Essen. Ich bin selber leidenschaftlicher Hobbykoch in Deutschland und muss sagen: gut, wirklich gut. Das Sauerkraut könnte ein wenig „knackiger“ sein, aber es war trotzdem lecker. Und das „Früh Kölsch“ könnte ein weniger günstiger sein (schreibt ein Kölner 😉) Vielen Dank und euch weiterhin viel Erfolg“

“Millennium is my favorite vegan res! Excellent customer service, people, and atmosphere! The food is more than something to eat; it is something to experience!“

“In fond of the lava lemonade. And the bagels are delish.“

“I spent about $45…for a whole bunch of yummy stuff! It’s amazing to be able to go straight to the bakery, and also kind of dangerous. You can see some of the menu on the window outside as you wait in line (there will almost always be a line), and you can peek in and see the day’s selection of breads and pastries. Only two parties at a time fit inside to order. There’s a small parking lot in front and more parking behind. I highly recommend the seasonal focaccia pizzas! An pain epi, just yum.“

“I had heard great things about Fava and their ex Chez Panisse chefs. I got to try it for the first time. It was even better than I thought it would be. I got the lamb sandwich (with cabbage, yogurt sauce, and fresh herbs like Persian sabzi, in a lavash like wrap that they make themselves.) I also got some lentil and kale soup with yogurt. So yummy. It took me back home to Iran. So good!“

“meal and the roti for sure will be going back“

“sourdough croissants, the corn cherry and oat scones, sundry shortbread flavours that are always exquisite...and today, a new treat, a lil pizza" bakers special" with kale and mojo and crust texture inexplicable, beyond magic. ✨👍🏽✨“

“Great food and service! Special atmosphere“

“The absolute best food by far. Four of us out walking around Shattuck looking for a place to eat on a Saturday when we happened by Cafe Tibet (the jazz band brought us down this street). This is a full vegan restaurant with the absolute best food I have tasted in a long time! Rich and full of flavor and you can be served either family style or order individually, this cafe will do it any way you like. I highly recommend Cafe Tibet to anyone, vegan or not, for food that is delicious and rich in flavors. And definitely try the desserts. So good!“

“If you're a breakfast burrito fan, Southie serves one of the best I've ever had—anywhere. I've eaten great burritos across the Bay and in L.A., and this one easily ranks at the top.

It's perfectly constructed: ripe avocado, fluffy scrambled eggs, cheese, chorizo, and an onion-pasilla pepper relish, all wrapped in a warm, soft tortilla. The flavors are bold and balanced, and it’s finished with a smoky chipotle aioli that adds just the right amount of kick.

One of the things I love most is that it doesn’t include potatoes—just pure flavor, no filler. I keep coming back for this burrito, and it never misses.

If you're anywhere near College Ave, it’s more than worth the stop.“

“Best pizza in SF! It’s to die for. Thanks Andy and Molly!“

“chocolate croissants!!💖.“

“The best bahn mi I’ve had in the east bay!!! Fresh veggies, amazing flavor, hella vegetarian options!!! Also loooove the mint matcha. My partner is a big fan of the smoothies, particularly the almond butter one. The staff here are always so welcoming and kind. The vibes are great for a quick bite or to hang out and get some work done. Love this place.“

“A delightful neighborhood venue 😊❗️“

“Amazing gluten free bakery (with vegan options) in the Ferry Building. The line was long (Sunday around noon), but it moved fairly quickly and it was definitely worth the wait. Things we got: cinnamon roll, croissant, empanada, bear claw. All were delicious. Would return and recommend to others, especially those with dietary restrictions.“

“We went to the commerce to eat at a different restaurant and did not have a good experience. Tony D. stepped up and was so willing to help and made us some amazing food! The cauliflower is amazing and the bowl with white rice was perfect. I will definitely be going back when I’m in the area!“

“I bought a lemon cake for a dinner party and it was a hit, with everyone going for a second piece. The person who served me was very friendly and helpful. There's no shortage of bakeries in the East Bay but I can't see a reason to go somewhere else for a cake.“

“Absolutely delicious. The staff was awesome. Consuelo couldn't have been more friendly! Great experience. Highly recommend 😋😋“

“Loved every bite of the food and appreciated all that Injera.“
