Gluten-Free Restaurants near Sierra Madre, CA

“Hiatus= opportunity for another stop in the LAtte tour. Today’s pilgrimage finds me in Sierra Madre at Syndicate, a fantastic find nestled comfortably downtown on Sierra Madre Blvd. Plenty of street parking and a beautiful place to take a stroll if you don’t score a spot immediately out front. The vibe is instantly welcoming, decor is colorfully minimalist, that’s probably not a thing, but it’s the best descriptor I have. The baristas are friendly, skilled and true devotees to all things coffee, even willing to share some potential sites to visit on the next LAtte stop. The coffee itself is excellent, rich, flavorful and no hint of bitterness. I went with oat milk this time and it paired perfectly with the blend, rich creamy, delicious! I can wholeheartedly recommend a visit should you find yourself in the area, or even if your not- expand your horizons and make it a destination, it’s worth it.“

“Anita’s cake is perfect in every way, even though I am not a big fan of sesame flavor cake but I have to say she has her magic way to make all ingredients blend in beautifully. This matcha sesame mousse cake is so soft and so smooth, u can taste the matcha and the sesame with the right amount of sweetness. This is the second cake I tried from her, her Earl gray cake is definitely heavenly and a must try. Her cakes are simply fantastic. Would want to try more.“

“Lovely bakery offerring fresh baked pastries, breads and cookies. You can get a hearty lunch sandwichm or a coffee to go with your breakfast pastry. Why go to that Seattle based coffee stand, when you can get better coffee and pastries, without the hassle of a drive thru window.“

“great location..fantastic polite knowledgeable stuff“

“My wife and I had an amazing night out here. The drinks were fantastic and the vegetarian / vegan food was fantastic. Such a great atmosphere. As a vegetarian who doesn’t drink, but loves a good mocktail, I was thrilled with our experience. It was definitely the perfect date night spot. The owners were such nice people who really thought out this concept. 100% recommend for people of all diets.“

“The store was very crowded even in the morning. The line was really long. The food was really great though - nice pastries, nice burritos, and nice croquettes. The tables were very close to each other and it was a very open and crowded hall stuffed with loads of people. I feel like they were understaffed.“

“Just amazing...this stuff is so beautiful I almost didn't want to eat it! But I did, haha, and it was great! I love that there is so much variety, from cookies to cakes, and the owner is such a sweet person! I'll definitely keep them in mind for my birthday when it rolls around in August. Keep up the good work!“

“Nice little cafe with a small menu and tasty“

“Great food and so friendly service.“

“I was craving a donut one day and when I found this place I was not disappointed! They had tasty gluten free donuts and I got a iced strawberry matcha drink that was delicious as well. The space has an inviting atmosphere and the staff is very helpful and friendly as well.“

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

“Modern, clean cafe with yummy Asian inspired treats. We got their chocolate mochi brownie, miso cinnamon roll, and cream bun.

All were delicious, but the mochi brownie was our favorite. The miso perfectly complements the cinnamon roll and the roll still tastes sweet. The cream bun was so soft and not too sweet.

Street parking available nearby. Cafe has good seating, high ceilings, and modern decor.“

“Above average, I can say for everything. Add in and out, the only thing that is changing. Is there size of the hamburgers? Are getting smaller and also their fries. The smaller servings they're holding out on the food, but higher prices make me want to go and eat someplace else.“

“Loved this place while living in Monrovia. Please look into placing one in Palmdale/Lancaster area❤️🥰❤️“

“Strawberry Banana (mini)
Sweet banana with a tangy strawberry kick
Matcha Chocolate Truffles
Crunchy chocolate shell, soft matcha inside, with a few fresh strawberry bits on top.
🆕 Strawberry Cheesecake Crepe (with Italian strawberry gelato)
Light cream-cheese & rose-yogurt filling in a warm crepe, plus cool strawberry gelato—perfectly balanced and not too heavy.
Spicy Crabmeat Savory Crepe
Big chunks of fresh crab and veggies with a mild chili kick—huge portion, so I boxed up the leftovers.
Drinks
Dragon Nebula: Pretty pink-purple dragon-fruit drink, tastes lightly fruity.
Mangocado Nebula: Creamy mango-avocado smoothie everyone kept refilling.“

“It was wonderful! Historic surroundings (ask about it). The staff provided assistance with the menu and offered valuable suggestions. The service was great and pizza was quickly delivered without compromise. Created with quality ingredients and crust with a nice chew. I highly recommend this one.“

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

“As a vegan family, finding a pizza place that caters to all of us and delivers on flavor can be tough. BUT Pizzanista in San Marino never disappoints! This spot has become our absolute favorite for pizza nights, and for good reason.

Our usual order? The Vegan Sicilian Pepperoni Pizza (crispy, thick, and packed with flavor), the Vegan Margherita Pizza (classic, simple, and oh-so-good), and we always start with the vegan garlic knots because, well, they’re irresistible.

What really makes Pizzanista stand out, though, is the experience. The head chef/owner/partner (not exactly sure, but he runs the show!) is always welcoming, kind, and clearly passionate about what they do. His energy makes every visit even better.

With pizza joints on every corner, we always choose Pizzanista when the cravings hit. The quality, the flavors, and the friendly vibes keep us coming back. If you’re vegan (or just love great pizza), this place is a must-try! 🍕 - M A R K“

“Fantastic service. The specialties and house signature food and drink are fabulous. I had the braised short rib and the house dirty martini. Delicious. Also please try the truffle deviled eggs, Brussels sprouts and truffle fries. Love this place.“

“My sweet tooth is why Carrara’s made it on my Pasadena Do See Taste list.

I was looking forward to trying their gelato, but the flavor selections seemed typical so I selected one of their pastries in stead. I was in the mood for a tropical flavor and there was only strawberry or lemon and since it wasn’t on display I wasn’t enticed as I eat with my eyes first.

The peach mango mousse special of the day was scrumptious! The packaging was so elegant! It felt like an experience when I opened the box to taste my treats. Their pastries look divine! It was hard not to pick more. I also opted for an Italian cookie/tart filled with a vanilla custard and topped with almonds and pine nuts. Also very good.

In the mood for a fancy sweet treat, it’s worth a stop @ Carrara’s.

Parking: 15 mins free in the garage next door.“

“It was delicious 😋 you create your own spicy soup. I’m very satisfied! Prices are good too“

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

“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.“

“Curbside pickup First time“

“This restaurant is MOSTLY VEGAN. A few items do have egg or dairy milk, but they are easily swapped for plant based options. This place uses fresh ingredients and makes creative dishes. I wish my tummy was big enough to eat one of everything! I got the chilaquiles and a "dirty"chai latte (dirty means it has an extra espresso shot). I don't live near by, so I'm not going to be able to visit often. Updated from previous review on 2025-02-26“

“Absolutely delicious! Can’t go wrong with SusieCakes. Chocolate cake is my all time favorite. Perfect for chocolate lovers. This time I ordered a slice of celebration cake and did not disappoint. Very moist and the flavor was just right.
They also offer a variety of cupcakes.
Jaimie helped me out. Very nice and even offered us to try a different flavor cake.
Customer service A+
Store is clean. Cake display simple and clean.“

“R u Serious!!! An unbelievable flavor explosion created by the chef at SEED. Gott be the best chile relleno of my life! The chile, the cilantro, the greens a robust farm fresh egg. BAMM!!“

“Second time I ate here in the last three days! Light, healthy, filling, affordable, and open late! A lot of plant based options. The flavor of the chicken on my bowl ? I am really happy I found this place and will be back many times!

Parking: Big parking lot that is shared with Rite Aid“

“The best breakfast I've had in a while. Super fresh and tasty. Super friendly staff, convenient location, street parking and parking lot in the back. Lots of really delicious stuff to choose from. And don't get me started on their pastries! It's an experience of it own. Great coffee. Non-dairy milk variety is available. Reasonable prices. Loved it!“

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

“Their UBER YUMMY Spumoni ice cream and their EVEN YUMMIER Masterpiece shake!!!!“

“Thank you for honoring veterans and God prosper your business.“

“We shared a few brunch type items and loved every one! Super cute place, very kid-friendly and dog-oriented, it felt like local community is a priority here. Such good vibes!! Excellent food with a creative twist and really sweet staff and even a cute shop of vegan and kid gift items. Loved it, and the bakery has excellent pastries and coffee right around the corner. Lovely afternoon spent in the area poking around and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. #veganlifeveganlove“

“Joey is super friendly and helpful!“

“Cool atmosphere, great music, best bottomless mimosas, & Felix makes the best espresso martinis 🥰“

“delicious choices of yogurt and very friendly. & very clean. will definitely be back“

“Came here with my wife and got yogurt. Tart was not working so the girl kindly got it working for me. I left a $2 tip. The owner comes in at the end of her shift, takes the money from the can . I may have mistaken, but that was dirty imop. Give the tips to the workers..
Edit.. My apologies. Hopefully they have a special blend of yogurt for those so inclined to steal tips from workers. ?“

“Constellation is a jewel in both La Canada and Silver Lake. It’s one of a handful of really good coffee shops in LA. Their espresso is smooth but flavorful, perfect for that early AM wake up call. Best of all, they are very community oriented and the leadership here really dedicates itself to helping the community in more ways than one. Great place, great owners, and they go the distance!“

“The best place for burgers“

“the best chilaquiles that I have eaten in the US not kidding really delicious 🤤 really good service as well“

“I come here a lot since it’s one of the few American-style bakeries in Alhambra. Their desserts are quite good, all baked in house, and at a good price point in a good location.

Only thing is I would recommend using a different type of packaging. I noticed time and time again that the cardboard taste permeates the food, and it’s even more exaggerated the longer the food stays in the container. The desserts are still good but I find the cardboard taste pretty distracting/unpleasant.“

“Even though this branch has been open for months now, it still feels like it's unfinished or maybe just understocked.The drinks come out super slowly, so I suggest ordering from the kiosk as soon as you enter. By the time you've made up your tray of baked goods, stood in line, and finished paying, your drink should be ready. Maybe.“

“Charming place to put in some work (if you don’t mind the background music) when a change of scenery is needed.“

“BEST PIZZA IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA“

“Great crew serving great coffee.“

“I’m officially addicted to their Vanilla Honey Latte. Food is awesome as well!“

“Second time going into the Pasadena store. All the associates were very friendly and gave us a great service.��“
