Gluten-Free Restaurants near Vista, CA

“I stay at the Townplace Marriott Once a year for business. I always stop in. There staff is friendly and prompt. The pizza is great. Salads are fresh served with all the right stuff. You need to check it out.“

“Love these Tortillas! always find them in local grocery stores and my kids love these. i decided to check out the location after seeing its a local in vista. place is a little hidden but made my way to the office all the way in the back. lucky for me the tortilla size i wanted was just being made and they gave me one as soon as it was packaged! only thing is if you want corn tortillas you should get here early since they make some every night for all the restaurants they try not to have too much left over so they sell quick in the morning“

“Peace Pies is the most healthful and best restaurant in San Diego hands-down! Your tummy will thank you for opting to go raw, whether it’s for your next breakfast, lunch or dinner. Between having multiple locations in the city and working with delivery services like DoorDash and UberEats and GrubHub, it’s never been easier to enjoy raw cuisine crafted by culinary champs. My personal favorite entrée has got to be a tossup between their pizza and their mushroom stroganoff.“

“Ordered a cake for an office retirement party and it was a hit! Several people asked where it was from. Chocolate cake with raspberry jam and chocolate buttercream, absolutely delightful! Wil definitely be ordering my cakes from here going forward. Ornament was purchased and added separately.“

“Delicious food and great value, great atmosphere“

“Loved this little place and the experience brought with it! Latte was made perfectly; mildly sweet with a creamy vanilla finish. Donut melted away in my mouth. Lighting, seating, and cleanliness was perfect for the Carlsbad area. 🩵“

“Most in our party have been to the larger Vigiluccis in Carlsbad. We all unanimously prefer this smaller one. If you love teal Italian food, this is your place. No touristy fettuccine Alfredo. But real dishes like an expertly prepared oso bucco, and a Venetian pasta del mare. Our waiter Stephano has been there for over 20 years. At first he seemed a bit closed and tired. But our group was so bright & engaging that even Stephano couldn't resist sharing his family stories with us. Overall, the restaurant is perfectly adorable and everyone was really great with us.“

“Oh this place is amazing!🥰I met this staff member named mary and she is lovely!😊 She goes into detail and gives me advice on what to get based on the menu. She knows her stuff when it comes to this job. Mary is a great person and staff member overall, she gets a 5 star rating as well. The smoothies are amazing and the PB&J chia pudding is oh so amazing!🥰love this location far more than other nekters I’ve been to!!🙏“

“After a long search I've discovered Julian Bakery's pea protein bar. Absolutely outstanding. These pea protein bars are the real deal. No artificial aftertaste at all—likely because the ingredients are actually natural. Just five ingredients, all high-quality, including premium cocoa. You genuinely feel like you’re eating pure health.

What really sets these bars apart is how easy they are on the stomach. Pea protein digests beautifully—no bloating, none of the heaviness you get with whey or sugar substitutes like sucralose. The sweetness comes from monk fruit, which says everything about their commitment to quality (it’s far more premium than stevia).

I have two a day—my favorite way to end a meal. My favorite bakery by far. They absolutely nailed it. No wonder they have a heart next to their name logo. ❤️“

“A very quality coffee shop to get a “real” coffee beverage in a sea of Starbucks and commercialized coffee options.

The vibe is hip and modern, and the seasonal offerings are very unique and very good. A winter flavor that really hit was the orange vanilla pine latte. I avoid carbs but hubby had it and it was really balanced and creative.

They sell cute and functional merch as well as the beans! They roast a spectrum from light Ethiopian to medium Mexican, to espresso roast and mix of medium and dark. Decaf, too, I observed- processed minimally.

Bonus- the food looked very premium. And the Pop Pie is right next door.

I have to admit I was there twice in one day – I didn’t mean to, it just made sense the way my day was going.

I guess that means I definitely would, have already returned!“

“My only regret is that we haven't tried this place sooner! There's no picture bc by the time we got home we were too excited to wait. This pizza is absolutely delicious! We got the large pepperoni and there was nothing left. We ate the whole thing. Everything about it was amazing, even the crust - sometimes we have found pizza crust to lack taste, but definitely not this one. Note that our pizza was not vegan, so I cannot say for that. We will definitely be back soon!“

“I just Love Choice Juicery! We have been a happy patron since they opened. We have been to all their locations in San Diego. Always clean with fresh drinks and yummy smoothies. I have been buying the greens and beet juice for my daughter to nourish her body after her baby was born. It has been great for her recovery and breastfeeding. I love the magic milk and Ginger bae myself to keep me going as a grandma🥰💞🙏
Thank you for providing healthy ingredients for all for good health.

“Such a wonderful relaxing spot for delicious coffee! My dog loves it too!“

“Try Lunch specials...lunch pizza really good. Salads are good. Service is friendly and usually fast. Servers have to dish out salads and drinks slowing them down. Good access and parking.“

“Perfect ice cream for family!!!“

“Best Mexican food ever. Mr. Mario and the other girl at the front always have nice customer service skills besides the great food.

MESSAGE TO THE OWNER:

PLEASE add Birria and vegetables Caldo in your menu, please 🙏“

“Love Nekter Carlsbad, every time I am Bressi Ranch I stop here !!“

“10 different flavors of Yogurt; help yourself to has much toppings your bowl will hold. Enjoy!“

“This place has excellent quality food. They don't go overly fancy on menu items, but they know what they do well. Our kids split a burger and fries (no kids meal FYI) it worked out fine. Decent alcohol selection. Prices are on par with other options here in 2026. Highly recommend.“

“Clean Clean Clean Clean Clean“

“We tried this place tonight after seeing it every Sunday on the way to get my husbands hair cut. It’s ALWAYS busy, but tonight was less busy so we decided to stop in. Great food, great customer service, wonderful outdoor dining space, and beautiful inside dining space.“

“Great lunch deal! Huge salad, awesome personal pizza and a drink! Great food!“

“Best Italian coffee as well as matcha I have ever had! It is now a regular stop on the way to SD. 🫶CK 🇺🇸“

“This was my first time going to a P.F. Chang’s in probably about 15 years. My experience the other night was fantastic; I ordered two martinis, a couple apps, and the Mongolian beef. From start to finish, everything was delicious. Our server, Jinx, provided excellent serve and makes a mean drink 🍹“

“Service and food here is amazing! A gem of Encinitas; the staff are professional, engaging, and go above and beyond. The owner is personable and greeted us in person.The food is absolutely amazing literally the best Italian we've ever had. Encinitas is worth coming back too just for this Italian experience.“

“We had a lovely time. The food is soso good!“

“Mooie plek, goede sfeer, nice people“

“Delicious scratch-made food! I had the breakfast special and the plate was full to the brim of yummy eggs, breakfast potatoes with onions & bacon and toasted, buttered baguette! And, oh! The coffee (I had the Le Praline) was divine! My friends and I sat outside and I could almost swear I was back in Paris, leisurely watching the world go by!“

“Please open one in Vancouver, WA. Your restaurant will do well here. There are too many new fast-food burger places opening around here and we need an alternative (if you want a burger Habit Burger or Shake Shack are great). I’d like to see a Tin Leaf open around here. I’d go there frequently for lunch, and so would other health-conscious residents.“

“As a tea drinker this presentation felt sophisticated and the chamomile strength was delicious and soothing. The freshness and rainbow colors of this bowl complemented the light delicate dressing. The watermelon radish added a pungent spice and with a dollop of hummus was perfectly balanced. Felt light and healthy and was a great vegan option. The music was mellow and the volume matched the mood of the time of day. Will be back again and try more of the not coffee menu.“

“My Kale Yeah Moment in Paradise.

Listen, I came to Carlsbad Village for the beach, but I’m pretty sure I’ve been permanently converted into a human chia seed after discovering Choice Juicery.

Let me paint you a picture: You’re lounging on their artificial grass outdoor seating (yes, GRASS, because apparently sitting on regular furniture is so 2010), sunshine warming your face, sipping a cold-pressed juice that’s so organic it probably knows the name of the farmer who grew it. This is the Carlsbad Village experience I didn’t know I needed.

I ordered the Avatar smoothie bowl because I too want to connect with nature and look as good as a blue alien, and OH MY GOODNESS. The granola was crunchy, the fruit was fresh, and I suddenly understood why everyone in the reviews sounds like they’ve achieved enlightenment. One reviewer said they wanted to spend their morning with “a book, the beach, and a smoothie bowl” and honestly? Goals. That person gets it.

The staff has that “vibrant energy” everyone mentions – they’re not just making smoothies, they’re conducting a symphony of superfoods. They let me sample things. They returned my glass bottle for credit. They made me feel like I was making the best life choices, which I was, because I was literally at a place called CHOICE.
Is it weird that I’m emotionally attached to a juice bar? Maybe. Do I care? Absolutely not. The outdoor vibe is chef’s kiss perfection – prime people-watching in the heart of the village, fresh ocean breeze, and the knowledge that everything I’m consuming is organic, plant-based, and probably reversing my terrible life decisions from last weekend.

If you’re in Carlsbad and don’t stop here, are you even really living? The answer is no. Go forth and get your açaí bowl. Your body will thank you, your Instagram will thank you, and that little voice in your head that says “maybe just one more burger” will finally quiet down.
TL;DR: Come for the cold-pressed juice, stay for the outdoor bliss, leave feeling like a wellness influencer. 11/10 would juice again. 🥬🌞​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​“

“If you're looking for a delightful treat, Nothing Bundt Cakes is the place to go! Their cakes are absolutely delicious and perfect for any occasion, whether it's a birthday, celebration, or just a casual sweet indulgence. The flavors are rich and tempting, and each bite is a little piece of heaven.

On top of the amazing cakes, the customer service is consistently fantastic. I had the pleasure of interacting with Charlotte, who was especially helpful and sweet. Her warmth and attentiveness made the experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend Nothing Bundt Cakes for anyone in search of a tasty dessert and excellent service!“

“Absolute best Indian food in San Diego county! I love spicy and got the 10 out of 10 chicken dish, which was outstanding. Initially smooth and savory with an after burner bite it was great! On the chicken kebab, which was ridiculously juicy and incredibly marinated full of flavor Last, but not least, they surprised us with dessert, which was a homemade ice cream with hints of pistachio and rosewater. Can’t really say more than that! You really want to have some fun with it order the mango smoothie it’s out of this world! #currylife #curry #indiancuisine #sanmarcos #delicious“
