Gluten-Free Restaurants near Pico Rivera, CA

“love this place staff is son nice“

“Great coffee and good people.“

“Free Spirited Bar is an absolute gem. It is incredibly refreshing to walk into a restaurant where the entire menu is vegan by default (they do offer an option to add halal chicken if desired), a total 180 from the usual experience of hunting for that one token plant-based option.
As a group with diverse dietary needs, we were blown away by how seamlessly accommodating they were. We ordered the Alfredo pasta with mushrooms, the marinara pasta, and the buttered scallops, finishing off with the Dirt Coupe mousse for dessert. Every single dish was amazing. The pasta is made in house, and most menu items are made from scratch. A special shout out goes to the gluten-free bread, it was so outstanding we completely forgot it was gluten-free.
It is a sober bar, they don't even have alcohol in their vanilla extract. However, their non-alcoholic cocktail list is extensive. We tried about eight different drinks among us, and each one featured incredibly unique flavor combinations and beautiful presentation.
The owners are so sweet and clearly understand dietary restrictions on a personal level. They took the time to patiently explain everything and made us feel completely at home. I don't live locally, but you can bet Free Spirited Bar will be my go-to spot anytime I’m in town!

Forgot to add they are dogs friendly and will even bring you out a water bowl for them.“

“From the initial greeting, to the lovely outside seating, to the great service staff, to really great flavors, it was a terrific meal. Our whole group concurred, “let’s come back here.”“

“Excellent experience at P.F. Chang’s Cerritos. The food, service, and atmosphere were all outstanding. A special thank you to Cesilia and the team for their hospitality and professionalism. Everything felt well-managed, welcoming, and consistent from start to finish. Highly recommend this location.

Hi Carmen, Alejandra, and Cesilia,

Thank you again for the wonderful hospitality and service. I really appreciated the warm welcome and the care your team showed during my visit. I also left a 5-star Google review for the Cerritos location.

Wishing you and the team continued success.“

“Que Delicia! Todo Fresco! Y Vegano <3“

“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!“

“I Love Amara!!! The best Avocado Toast in town!!! Nice atmosphere, friendly people and great service!“

“This bakery is such a dangerous place if you love pastries because everything looks amazing the moment you walk in. There’s a huge variety of baked goods to choose from, and it honestly feels hard to leave with just one thing.

Everything I tried tasted fresh and homemade, with that perfect balance where the pastries feel rich and satisfying without being overly heavy. You can tell they put real care into both the flavor and presentation.

The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it a great place to stop for coffee and something sweet. Definitely one of those spots I’d happily come back to whenever I’m craving good pastries in LA“

“Skater owned amazing pizza“

“Casual coffee / tea shop that also has specialty pastries. Highly recommend their Espresso Cloud iced. It's delish. Also recommend trying the Black Sesame Dark Chocolate Cookie, the Milk Cream Bun, and the Yuja Kumquat Tart; all three are very delish and not too sweet.“

“Omelete sandwich and beet salad were delicious. Berry lemonade was refreshing. Pastries are divine.“

“One of my favorite spots for vegan breakfast. The atmosphere, staff, and food are all absolutely next level. I always bring my parents here when they visit, and even though they aren’t vegan and I am, they still rave about their meals every time.“

“Gluten free pastries are hard to find, delicious pastries are harder to find but Cakegirl has successfully turned GF pastries a joy to enjoy. The cookies are so soft and flavorful. The chocolate donut although not fluffy and airy like what one would expect it’s more like an old fashion style donut, it’s soft and moist and most importantly chocolaty.“

“This is Costco for bakery. Huge and crowded. Lines and orders move pretty fast. Dine in and to go available. Parking is crowded most of the time. Bakeries, coffee, and pastries are above average, but not something you gotta have. Prices are reasonable. Good to visit once when near by.
Try the Bensito, very good cookie pastry. Good cake pastry with nice inside truffle fillings.“

“amazing mochi!!! don't forget to check out their seasonal flavor“

“Delicious brunch today at Lemon Poppy. The whole family enjoyed it.“

“the good was good 👍 I was amazed“

“This place came to the rescue!!! The wedding cake I had made fell over on the long drive. It was a disaster!! Other bakeries near the wedding venue were already closed and others needed at least 48 hour notice… the wedding was happening NOW. I called Sonora Bakery in my final desperate attempt, explained the situation, sent them a picture of the cake and within minutes, they got to work. The cake was delicious and the wedding was saved. Thank you Sonora Bakery…. You have a customer for life!“

“The best. Done and done. They go that extra mile when you need it most.“

“Delicious!!! Definitely coming back. Great friendly service!…🥰“

“I’ve been to the DTLA Arts District location so many times, so I was shocked (in the best way) to discover this one so close to home. The space is modern, clean, and has a cool vibe — though I still lean toward the unique Arts District atmosphere. What really stands out is the pizza: same incredible quality as DTLA. Blindfold me and I wouldn’t be able to tell the difference.

The only thing to keep in mind is that pizza by the slice can add up — if you’re thinking of grabbing more than two, a fresh pie might be the smarter move. Either way, I’m thrilled to have another amazing spot nearby!“

“I came in right as they were closing, but they were so kind and didn’t rush me while I made my last minute choice. The pine nut cookie was heavenly. Look forward to trying the rest of their offerings next time Updated from previous review on 2026-02-09“

“Gutes Lokal zum Verweilen und pausieren“

“If you’re looking for a café that perfectly captures the heart and flavor of Little Tokyo, Cafe Dulce is an absolute gem. Nestled in the vibrant streets of Little Tokyo in Los Angeles, this spot has become a go-to destination for anyone who appreciates exceptional coffee, creative pastries, and a welcoming atmosphere.

From the moment you walk in, the energy is warm and inviting. The space strikes a beautiful balance between modern and cozy — clean lines, natural light, and just enough buzz to make it feel lively without overwhelming conversation. Whether you’re meeting friends, taking a work break, or enjoying a quiet solo coffee moment, it’s the kind of place that instantly makes you want to stay a while.

The coffee program is consistently impressive. Every cup tastes thoughtfully crafted, from smooth, balanced lattes to bold, rich espresso. You can tell there’s real care in the quality of the beans and the precision of the preparation. Even the specialty drinks feel intentional — creative without being gimmicky, flavorful without overpowering the coffee itself.

But what truly sets Cafe Dulce apart is the pastry selection. The menu blends classic techniques with Asian-inspired flavors in a way that feels both innovative and comforting. Their donuts are especially memorable: soft, perfectly textured, and not overly sweet. Each bite tastes fresh and thoughtfully made. Beyond donuts, the selection of baked goods always feels curated rather than crowded — everything has a purpose, and everything is worth trying.“

“Holy Crépe! It’s raining cats n dogs today.
But no worries we have T-Swirl. lol Let’s begin this dessert review.

T-Swirl Crépe is a Japanese crepes franchise that offer the finest crepes in America. This location is at a large plaza in Temple City. They have the freshest ingredients and all are Gluten-free! Also, they have smoothie and milk tea. It was my first time here and perused their vast list. I had a mini Berry crepe and it taste good. For me it hits everything from the light sweetness to texture to flavor.

Service was modest. Staff were competent. Prices were fair that match the quality. Atmosphere was relaxing. Vibe was okay. Seats were comfortable. Overall, I enjoyed my Japanese crepe. I recommend you visit. I shall return.“

“love the food and service is great“

“Went to pick up a dozen cupcakes to try for our wedding. Great service very helpful“

“Sunfare is such an amazing company. Staff is very knowledgeable and helpful! The food tastes great, and it makes meal planning so simple by delivering a cooler of fresh meals daily.“

“Ray our server and Keylani the hostess were awesome“

“everything because i worked there and i made everything .. everything Is freshly made everyday .. ITS the BEST .. ill back one day“

“I highly recommend Melrose Bakery for any of your upcoming catering or personal needs. They offer an exceptional selection of pastries, including muffins, bear claws, and danishes, all of which are of the highest quality.
In addition to their confectionery items, they provide a premium assortment of breads, such as baguettes, bagels, and sliced loaves. Their products are consistently fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned, offering excellent value. I have been very impressed with their consistency and think you would find their offerings to be a great fit.“

“A little busy went during lunch“

“One of the best places to get amazing coffee in Boyle heights I know there’s 12 locations but this is my favorite monarca, the staff is the best! Everyone is so friendly and everything comes out fast. Everyone working here is professional and knowledgeable about their product and coffee and they always give you samples.“

“I rarely can find vegan sweets at theme parks. The Berry Tart appears to be more common, but they do offer some seasonal treats. The Berry Tart did have undisclosed nuts, pistachios. If you have allergies I would probably not go to this place. Based on my experience with other restaurants at Knotts, they do not take food allergies very seriously.“

“Civitas Coffee is a gem. The coffee is excellent, but what keeps me coming back is the atmosphere — you can feel the heart behind this place. Kat has built something special here. A faith-based shop with great coffee and even better community. Highly recommend!!“

“They really need to update their hours, the food is awesome, but I came here on Friday at 2:25pm and the gal at the front desk said they close in 5 minutes. Their hours on google is incorrect. Very disappointing! I drove 20 minutes to get here 😕“

“Nice place to chill, nice back patio too.“

“Best. Cappuccino. Ever. It was bold without being bitter, incredibly smooth, and with great mocha notes.“

“Ilove SugarBloom Bakery!!!My wife and I love the bake-at-home plain croissants and chocolate croissants. It is the best combo, waking up to fresh croissants every morning would be the best way to start your day!!!Did I mention I love SugarBloom Bakery, some favorites mine are: Sesame Pretzel Croissant (vegan), White Miso Kouign-Amann, Spam & Kimchi Croissant, Miso Butterscotch and Triple Threat Chocolate chunk cookies, of course the plain/ chocolate/ham and cheese croissants. Some items I want to try is the chocolate hazelnut croissant, vegan everything croissant. Anything else I should try?“

“My kids loved the Pinl Flamingo 🌷 The La Habra location was super clean and the workers were so friendly and were very knowledgeable about there products 🍎“

“So excited and proud Sugarbird finally has a storefront. My family and I have followed Chef & Owner Kei since it first started and only had regular priority mail delivery and pickup from a co-op location in Downtown LA. I stopped by after the Montrose Farmers Market, where Sugarbird was before and I believe still is for other Farmers Markets, and Kei herself was managing the store. She was nice and really excited to finally have her own storefront. I got a free tea, free clotted cream, the tea sandwich set, six scones (ube, lemon blueberry, matcha, fig & rosemary, passionfruit & earl grey) and shortbread cookies.“

“The ice cream is amazing and the customer service is excellent. I will definitely be a regular customer.“

“I just got the 5-day cleanse. First time I ordered and of course they packaged it wrong according to the person that I've been emailing with. One of the soups seal was broken and it leaked out. Very disappointed with the customer service because she says that they can't send me a replacement soup just to $12 refund for the one that was damaged. I don't know how I'm supposed to do the 5-day cleanse next week as planned as I am now short a soup 😔 First and last order if they can't make this right. UPDATE: I guess they did the best that they could to make it right. They found me a similar soup on Amazon and are sending it to me since for some reason they can't send a replacement soup of theirs“

“Great coffee and good people.“

“My wife and I had a great time visiting Tobara booth when they were set up at the Northridge Farmers market. She wanted to get some dessert for her mom so we looked at what they had. They have different cheesecake, Mexican desserts and so many more.

The prices are reasonable so my wife got the Mexican cheesecake and Estilo Casero for her mom. It is as a man and his son working the booth, they were really nice to use.“

“Delicious food, fried chicken 🐔 the bomb and the pickled veggies are so good. Definitely a place to go in the DTLA area.“

“BEST PIZZA IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA“

“A paradise where you can go to get away from it all“
