Gluten-Free Restaurants near La Mesa, CA

“Our waitress today was Maya. She was very attentive! We had a great dining experience today.“

“3/5 for a first timer during restaurant week… the special menu was $50 per person…. we never got any bread with our dinner (and didn’t realize we were left out until we were on dessert)… and, portions were small, so the bread would have been nice, especially for $50… also, the server made us make our food order at the same time as our drinks… personally, i like to have a drink or two before i order my food… so, the service was rushed in that sense… and no one asked me if i wanted a second glass of wine i had the veal and my friend had the lobster ravioli… both tasted decently but, again, small portions… the burrata was amazing and the desserts (tiramisu and lava cake) were pleasant i think i’d like to try again on a night that isn’t as busy, and order off of the actual menu“

“The food the service is amazing. VERY bad experience that little Roma restaurant I should’ve known better that there’s no place like Nonna’s.“

“We've enjoyed every roll, every appetizer, every visit. Left this afternoon planning a return trip on Friday.“

“Everything is delicious, and the place has a great atmosphere!“

“From the manager to the staff....this is why we will be back. oh and the yogurt is delicious too“

“My wife and I eat at Ciccia’s regularly but this is our first review after 4 years. Sorry Francesca and Mario! (In my defense I practically never ever write a review.) We keep coming back for the food, ambiance and hospitality. **We’ve gone 3 times in the last week! The crab gnocchi is my wife’s favorite. I get something different almost every time. Every visit I ask Mario about the specials as I like to sample the beef and/or fish (Branzino!) they prepare in addition to pasta. Try the Tomahawk steak if it’s a special that day (call ahead) and you will be amazed. Too many times we fill up on appetizers like mushroom flan, breaded zucchini, calamari, antipasto, and the choices go on! But that’s what to-go containers are for. So much good food to eat at Ciccias we tend to order too many things. It is simply fun to dine there. Once you’re inside the restaurant area (patio area or indoor area) the ambiance is quaint and cozy. Ciccia’s is not big and it’s always filled, but we never feel like it’s too crowded. The energy is always fun and upbeat. Which makes people stay awhile, so let me recommend getting reservations. We’ve had to wait 10-15 minutes but nothing’s perfect! If you want a breezy quick dinner before going off to an event you may want to go to Ciccia’s on another night. Hospitality is what you would expect of a small Italian restaurant run by the owners. Terrific!! If it’s your first time, read their story on the website before you go. They are bona fide top chefs who followed their dreams to open their own place. What a gem it is tucked inside Barrio Logan. One thing regulars may notice is that staff doesn’t appear to turn over much as I’ve seen the same faces working there for years. I think that reflects well on the restaurant. I don’t take pictures of food very often but last night I did. We stopped by at around 9 just to get dessert and a cocktail. My wife had the ricotta cake with apricot and habanero sauce (wow!) and I had cassata siciliana which is traditional cake from Sicily. Pretty to look at and yes, it’s delicious. They do a good job with making an Old Fashioned, which always pairs well with dessert 😜 Buon appetito!“

“(Translated by Google) It is a great place where you live now and in the present I love their activities and the process they carry out.(Original)Es un gran donde vives el ahora y el presente me encanta sus actividades y el proceso k llevan.“

“Tastylife™️. Would buy treats again.“

“Great customer service I had the mobile app glitch called in and the manager Claudia helped me will definitely order again“

“Very popular spot good food minus the onions“

“Excellent food and the service was splendid.“

“Best pizza in the valley!“

“The food is delicious, flavorful, and authentic. This place offers simple sit down dining in addition to to-go ordering.

Our waiter brought us water, bowls for sharing (we didn't even have to ask!), and a small dessert at the end of the meal. For a place with to-go in the name, this kind of service was unexpected and very welcome.

I didn't see any incentives for leaving a good review, so the 4.9 stars that this restaurant has is well-earned through great food, great prices, and great service.“

“I had such a wonderful experience at this Ethiopian restaurant in San Diego! The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and full of authentic taste. The customer service was amazing; everyone was so warm and welcoming, and it truly felt like being treated as family. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, which makes it a perfect place to enjoy a meal with loved ones.

If you’re looking for great Ethiopian food with excellent hospitality, this is definitely the place to go. Highly recommend!“

“Just received these as a gift ! Beautiful packaging! Great taste!“

“The pastries look amazing! We had their Berry Tart pastry at a Farmers Market and enjoyed it, but I couldn't bring myself to buy a $7 croissant today at the downtown Little Italy location.

Maybe something about not being in a festive mood and only wanting a snack today.“

“This morning, a delicious espresso drink with half & half and cinnamon (The Raf) and homemade banana walnut bread. You know the rich toasty taste of real walnuts? Once you have baked goods Melissa's way you won't be able to go back to factory mass-produced pastries wrapped in plastic and lacking humanity. Taste the love at Gooseberries! Plus they're so welcoming and fun. On a hot day it feels good (no a.c. but you're essentially outside but in shaded comfort). I love their pickles (you can buy a jar) and Mel's nut butter (oh my Gawd the acai bowl is so good with nut butter)!“

“I’ve been ordering meals from Lean Machine for years. I’ve tired a few other meal service companies but no one compares. They’re the only ones that allow you to customize your meals by portion, carb, protein and vegetable choice. They also have great customer service.“

“Great vegan food ☕️🍰🧋💛🧡💙❤️💜“

“Came to TNT on the recommendation of a local and holy f*** balls I was blown away. If I had the disposable income I’d buy a private jet and fly to San Diego to eat here once a week and fly home, my carbon foot print would look like a slice of their pizza and I would okay with it cause my belly and soul would be content. Every pizza I have after this will be a disappointment to me.“

“The cookies 🍪 are amazing!“

“Great vibes awesome food and the service was 👍🏼“

“So stoked they have vegan rolled tacos! I tried both the potato and the lentil quinoa. Both are delicious, but the lentil quinoa ones blew me away!! 🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽 They are so flavorful and the tortillas are crispy and crunchy, yet not hard. Also awesome is that they pack everything separately so the food isn’t a soggy mess when you get home. I added vegan sour cream I had at home and topped it with their guacamole, lettuce and salsa. They were heavenly!! I also appreciate that they fry their vegan tacos in a separate fryer. 🙌🏽Also, thank you for not using styrofoam. The containers for the to go orders are compostable made of plant fiber. The place is beautifully decorated, clean, and the staff were very courteous. I will definitely return. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Really enjoyed our first visit to Parkhouse. Definitely coming back. Food and drinks were delicious. The service was exceptional“

“I was a little apprehensive about trying gluten free baked goods, but these were quite good! They weren't dry and crumbly as some gluten free things were. I got a Neapolitan cupcake, maple bar, chocolate chip muffin, and lemon cake. I was pleasantly surprised:) I will definitely be back“

“I love their food. Wish they have the langs challah bread, their challah bread is not something you can do kiddush with.“

“A refreshing quality Hard Yerba Mate made to taste in a nice garden atmosphere! The staff is superb and knows their Mate!“

“Okay everyone here is a fantastic hidden gem in San Diego. And for those living in Orange County there's one at the Packing House. Parfait Paris took me back to the Parisian eateries I just went to in August, when I visited Paris. This one is a must for the European conosours. The manager Phoebe was delightful, friendly kind and so personable. The staff Ben C. and Ivy were absolutely wonderful, and had such a cute little French accent. The food was timely and incredibly delicious! If you want to go to heaven just for a bit, try Parfeit Paris, you will be sure to have your taste buds tantalized with the most delicious eggs benedict I've had in a very long time. The carrot cake was incomparable yuuuum, and I highly recommend the chocolate desert in my photos, it melts in your mouth. I had the best Dulce de Leche latte I've ever had. I had to finish the brunch with a sweet heavenly treat for later, I took some mochi variety home, that my family and I devoured watching our favorite TV show. If you are anywhere around the San Diego area, you must visit this place, it will transport you to the divine Parisian eateries in France!“

“Truly wonderful Thai food, would eat here often if we were local!“

“I had their products before and I was just impressed with them but I bought a mothers day cake i was blown away it was DELICIOUS moist plenty of flavor ( strawberries heart) I recommend it if you're looking a fantastic cake full of flavor a fantastic cake look no more Hans & Harry's is the place 😋“

“Great place to hang out with great drink, not intoxicating. 👍😊. Great ambiance! Love it! 💖“

“Very good food 👌 Quick and their senior mini omelet hit the spot!“

“Singularly the best brewery in San Diego
Been going there for 10+ years

The owners are are family to me & my husband, have been awesome friends for a decade.

The beertenders are fun, educated about the beers & are all family to me

The beer is some of the best i’ve had in my life, my desert-island beer lives on the board, Drink this or the Bees Die

Being gluten-free makes the beer healthier for me, less pain in my joints, no bloating, & tastes amazing.

Overall 100/10 for me, now & forever“

“First timer today, needed a quick dinner after a workout and a bowl from here sounded like a good idea. Parking seemed like it would be an issue, luckily I nabbed a 15 minute spot right nearby. I liked the clean environment and the build your own bowl concept. I got a regular size bowl with brown and white rice, mostly tofu but a scoop of shrimp. After all the toppings I chose (edamame, seaweed salad - yum! Etc.), this turned out to be a substantial size dinner that I might have leftovers from). The base marinade and all the choices of toppings were very nice, and everything came together quite well and tasty. For just a little over $20 I felt this bowl was worth the time and money to get. Service was friendly and options were explained to me clearly as the bowl was being made. I plan on returning to this place!“

“These sandwiches are AMAZING! seriously. My fav: ACROBAT !!!!“

“Great food specially their pad thai. Servers are nice and very welcoming. Will definitely come back over and over again. I’ve found one of the BEST Thai Restaurant in San Diego“

“My husband and I loved our coffees on this Sunday morning! I got a half sweet lavender oat milk latte and it was so good - perfect sweetness for me. My husband loved the specialty Dubai latte. Quality of coffee is so good and smooth, no bitterness at all. They use mostly Monin brand syrups. Definitely would love to come back soon!“

“Absolutely delicious food, friendly staff, and cozy atmosphere! This place is wonderful“

“It was my 1st time in and Loved it!! definitely will be Back for more goodies! excellent Customer Service!!“

“My favorite place to go eat when I go visit San Diego. The food it’s delicious and the service is wonderful. ✅😋“

“Great restaurant! Food, service were on point!“

“Cozy little Cafe. Very clean. Friendly staff. Great coffee drinks. Delicious pastries. Love this place!❤“

“The food was exceptionally good. I would eat the French toast weekly if I lived near by. The coffee cake was also exceptional. Ever member of my party enjoyed everything. The ambiance is fun. The impromptu snow storm gave us a smile, even if our table didn't get umbrellas. I will say, the bathroom experience is... Interesting and not for the modest (windows looking out to the farmers market). Also make sure to ask to be in the atrium or you miss a good part of the experience.“

“Was only in town for 2 days, saw this spot thought I would try it out, and was not disappointed! They have great coffee, food, and bread! And the customer service was amazing as well!“

“Its pho is one of best pho I enjoyed in SD. Its soup is light but has deep flavor. Even for a regular size, the portion was huge. Its popcorn chicken appetizer was good too (agree with other reviews).

P.S. Parking can be a bit tight during peak hours.“

“We usually enjoy the food, but some of it was not hot. Our waiter was terrible. We had to ask him several times for items, he didn't clear the table, and when asked, still left dirty dishes. It was one of our worst experiences at PF Chang's. Service has always been very spotty.“

“Lilya ur bartender she’s amazing“

“Good healthy food,great service loved the smoothies!“

“You guys are the real MVPs Not having a special menu goes the extra mile to show that you’re willing to show gratitude to veterans. Now I’m a regular after eating here. Shout out for the flank steak last night. Our server Belle was great as well.“
