Gluten-Free Restaurants in Palo Alto, CA

“love this place. might be expensive but worth it been com I ng here for years“

“The food was superb. The octopus and mushroom appetizers were fabulous. The sampler plate was great. The server was very attentive and friendly. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is very warm and inviting. Evvia is one of the best restaurants in the Bay Area, in my opinion!“

“Late December 2025 visit:
Dropped by on a Sunday morning when we visited the Cal Ave Sunday Farmer's Market. A bit hard to locate as the shop front didn't scream 'bakery' at us and we walked by at least 3 times looking for the address.

The young man helping us was very friendly and helpful in explaining the flavors to us!

We picked up 2 focaccia breads in black takeout boxes and ate them after a hike the next afternoon. Tasty but oily. Didn't find any truffle flavor but maybe I wasn't looking hard enough.

Fun memory made better by the staff and his opinions on the savory focaccia bread.
The shop had cake in jars and cookies available as well.

I'd be interested in trying the sourdough bread loaves next time!“

“Had dinner with some friends, had the crepes, amazing stuff. The staff is the best, friendly, beautiful very efficient. highly recommended...“

“World Wraps in Palo Alto is fantastic — the food was amazing and the service was just as good. Huge shoutout to Julie for taking such great care of us. We accidentally messed up our order when we placed it through the app, and she jumped in right away to fix it without any hassle. She was quick, kind, and genuinely made sure everything came out exactly the way we wanted. We left happy, full, and really impressed. If you go, ask for Julie!“

“I REALLY ENJOYED THE FOOD....IT WAS VERY DELICIOUS AND THE PRICES WERE EXCELLENT“

“I had the most amazing experience and it was my first time. I will definitely go back before l leave San Francisco.“

“The bistek asado. omg! soooo tender. we ordered it medium. it was perfect. We also ordered the pollo rostisado con mole. it was tender and tasty. Thank you for accommodating us with no reservations. make reservations. place gets packed quick.“

“My goto French cafe with delicious French bakery, Freshly pressed OJ’s, and excellent coffees.“

“After 20+ years of coming here…it’s STILL incredible! The Mojito! The Masitas, the snapper, and soooooo much more!“

“Daigo’s food is absolutely delicious. The ji kimedai was outstanding, and the Homemade ice cream dessert (MUST TRY!!) at the end was the perfect finish. It’s easily one of the best Japanese restaurants I’ve had in the Bay Area in this price range.“

“I came in during a busy Sunday afternoon with a large group and the staff went above and beyond to accommodate us. Armando was our server and too went above and beyond for us as well, evening splitting a complicated check to us . The food was outstanding, the pies to die for. Really impressed an thankful for the outstanding food and service“

“We had a fantastic time here with 10 of our friends in the private tatami room. We told the server our budget and were brought a large chef selection of food and beverages. It was effortless, which made the night a lot more enjoyable. My wife said she wants to come back for date night.“

“Best soon dubu I’ve ever had in the Bay. This could rival any place in LA’s K-town and is miles better than anything you can find in East Bay.

The broth is so deep, savory and flavorful that you can taste it in the tofu, which soaks up the seasoning beautifully. Also, I could taste that they might season their mushrooms and beef before boiling it in the soup. These are small details that make this place really special.

It’s super busy on a Sunday afternoon but one server still managed to ask if we wanted refills on banchan. I didn’t expect that so that was nice!“

“1st time in Cali , this place was a 3 min walk from my hotel . I had the adult grill cheese. It was delicious. The service was great and the prices were not bad at all . I definitely recommend and will be returning next time i’m on the west coast .“

“Great Jamaican food.

I’m no expert in Jamaican food but I can definitely tell that they pour effort into their food and it pays out well!

I personally like their ribs and oxtail the most.
The fried platter can be skipped in my opinion.“

“Es un restaurante muy bonito, sus platos muy bien servidos y deliciosos! Recomiendo a Local Union siempre, excelente servicio el de Guadalupe y Estefany!“

“Healthy options Good price“

“great food. good service“

“Loved eating here and I will be back. I have to admit, I am an enchilada snob and when I eat at a Mexican Restaurant, what I order the first time I eat there are enchiladas. Celia's, has good salsa, excellent enchiladas, I had the ground beef with red sauce, and the obligatory refried beans and rice were exceptional. Great atmosphere. My only complaint is the parking which needs to be expanded but I will park and walk here. It was that fabulous! Thank you, Celia's.“

“My wife and I online-ordered some goodies from Deja Vu recently. The best Chocolate Babka ever with lots of chocolate, a hint of cinnamon and very moist. They must have used a high quality of cocoa. You can taste the passion and love the chef put into her cakes. This is a local hidden gem!“

“Great food and drink♥️ I love“

“I like this place, but please stop adding hot sause to ALL burritos for those who order online, even if they do not specifically ask for it, do not think we want it. You should just put hot sauce on the side for everyone. BTW, you barely see meat in the burrito. I asked for a regular chicken and when I opened it, there was barely any.“

“I give 5 Star!!! Awesome find for me. Definitely a stop for me here in near future! Awesome and delicious food 🍱!!!“

“Very kind service extremely clean establishment food was very fresh.“

“Great flavor across several dishes that we got. We go with friends every couple years and it is still outstanding. I would say that the beverage service needs to be a little bit tightened up as I noticed that several of us could've used another drink, but were never asked.“

“I wish you would open another location outside downtown Palo Alto. Your food is fabulous but too hard for parking!“

“This is a take away place. We had the kouign amann and chocolate croissant. Excellent. Chocolate croissant is not sugary with dark chocolate. Could have a bit more chocolate but high quality chocolate 🍫🍫🍫. baguette tends to sell out early here.“

“I was really pleasantly surprised. I live in San Jose. Shopping with a friend came upon LuLu's in Palo Alto. Had the chili relleno burrito it was very very good. Looked around at other people's orders and everyone had a big smile.“

“Our server was pleasant and efficient. We wish we had gotten his name to thank him personally on this review. Food portions were generous and nicely plated on good quality stoneware. The price point was good for the delicious assortments on the menu. We enjoyed the cocktails at $8.99. Out only objection was the background music that had a booming pulse. Perhaps this vibe is not our style. It makes conversation difficult.“

“Every time when I can go I do 👍💝“

“The bomb pizza as always get a quad pepperoni sit back and fill up!“

“What sets Kara’s Cupcakes apart is their outstanding variety of fruity flavors in addition to traditional ones. From the tropical passion fruit to the decadent banana-caramel or banana, the cakes are consistently moist and the flavors are incredibly vibrant. Paired with their signature smooth and creamy frosting, these cupcakes are a favorite for my whole family. A must-visit at Town & Country Village!“
