Gluten-Free Restaurants near Highland Park, IL

“Wonder French pastries and the best chicken and mushroom quiche“

“Amazing find! Worth the drive. Been wanting to find/try a vegan bakery. Had seen this store come up when searching for options. Today made the drive there. So worth it!!! Choc Chip scone is delicious; good texture, plenty of chips and excellent tasting. Also purchased cinnamon roll. After heating, just incredible! Frosting super delish, dough was great. Anxious to go back, would like to try cupcakes, empanadas and pie. Store is super cute!!! Also, the owner/manager was at an event, not at store today. However, family member there (Mom I think). What a sweet, kind, friendly professional “filler in”. Service is everything!“

“How crazy is this. Going to Sunset Foods I saw this sign in the window of a storefront to the West. Fortunately I found BRIGHT BOWLS owned and operated by a Highland Parker named Lindsay. I can’t describe the ambiance and wonderful products. You need to experience on your own. My favorite so far is the LoveABowl. Enjoy on site or to go. Get Bright Butter, Bright Granola and Bright Smiles. Tell the staff Larry sent you. Hmmmm“

“This place is the classic "Jewish style" deli gem. The brunch crowd are gossiping older folks, who sit forever and get a million refills on their pickles. Their pickles are AMAZING, they have bagels, latkes, eggs, sandwiches, spreads, the best chicken soup (made with love), and their desserts are delicious. They even support local businesses and authors by selling items in their store and having little change collection bins (tzedakah boxes). Even prices are reasonable, especially considering inflation. You won't be disappointed by eating here!

Vegetarian options: Eggs, sandwiches, soups, salads, pancakes, wraps, all the typical deli-style options.

Dietary restrictions: They were very good about helping a friend of mine who just had surgery, with a list of "not allowed foods" figure out what she could eat!

Parking: Giant parking lot.“

“Food : Buffalo Chicken Pizza and onion rings. Onion rings were really good and pizza was alright.
Beer: October fest and Honey blonde. Honey blonde was better than October fest.
Great outdoor seating area and loved the vibe. Vick served us and her energy is amazing!! Helped us with recommendations and was fast! overall good experience!“

“OUTSTANDING! What an amazing place that has been around and in the same family for decades. We all had homemade pasta including the gluten-free option and they were all delicious and authentic. We had just returned from Italy the prior week and it felt like we were still there! KUDOS to the family and Chef.“

“Best sourdough in Illinois! Great service and a comfortable environment.“

“Stopped in for a coffee during my lunch and was very impressed with not only their selection, but with the taste as well! I got the Maple Cardamom and was very good. Highly recommend if in the area!“

“We love Cupitol at all hours of the day, but weekend brunch is the best. Food is top notch, service is fast, and Dylan makes our day.“

“Hi, I’m trying to contact you since one week on FB Messenger and IG. Could you please check my message ? It’s related to franchises. Best. Simon C.“

“We drove from Genoa City Wisconsin because we heard how delicious everything was. We were NOT disappointed. The meat on our sandwiches, one corned beef and one pastrami, was piled high! Homemade brined pickles and bakery items exceeded our expectations. Worth the drive and we will be back.“

“Best place for breakfast!!!! Everything is delicious! And Courtney is the best waitress!!!! The special the other day, Pork Carnitas Nest was quite possibly the best breakfast I’ve ever had!!!“

“We had my sons second birthday party here and I would highly recommend to anyone who has enjoyed eating at Morettis. The catering and management team were very responsive, flexible, and excited for host our event. We had about 50 people and the staff was outstanding. Everyone loved the food. I would host again at Morettis!!!“

“Stopped by on Wednesday 02/06! And was greeted and attended by Mercedes. She was SUPER kind and attentive with my order! Very grateful she took my needs seriously since I fast on Wednesday's/Friday's & can only eat vegan. She went above & beyond to make sure my needs were meet! & as I was waiting I noticed how clean the area is. & once I got my order it came out so fresh; plan on visiting again! & thank you for the great experience!“

“From the moment you walk in, you are greeted with the delightful aroma of fresh chocolate, setting the tone for a memorable visit.
The entire store is beautifully designed, with an elegant and inviting atmosphere. The displays are artfully arranged, showcasing a wide variety of chocolates, from classic milk and dark options to unique and adventurous flavors. The chocolates at Nut & Candy are simply outstanding. Each piece is a testament to high-quality ingredients and meticulous craftsmanship.
The staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, offering samples and providing detailed information about the different products. Michael went above and beyond to ensure I had a pleasant experience. They were patient, answering all my questions and even offering personalized recommendations based on my preferences.
Thank You, Nut and Candy“

“I had looked at the menu before I came here so I knew I wanted The Cuban Sandwich when I arrived. It was fast and fresh. The meat was mouth watering! Was the best Cuban I ever had. I was not expecting this. Hoping for goodness.. but the best!! ???. The service was fast and friendly.
I give this place 5⭐️
Jerry (the pigeon) gives it 5.5⭐️“

“I had the German pancake and with 100% recommend if you don't want a lot then order the baby Dutch you won't regret it. I asked for strawberries with mine.“

“It is so refreshing to meet an owner who is actively present in his restaurant. Mark Salmon enthusiastically and creatively arranged for my friend and I to dine outside (our request), despite the rain. We stayed dry under umbrellas and thanks to Sandra, our amazing waitress, we celebrated my birthday with fine food (impressive menu choices and food presentation) and great company! It was my first time dining at 501 Local and this restaurant met and exceeded my high standards in every way! It is a hidden gem and our new fav restaurant. Highly recommend!!“

“We enjoyed a wonderful breakfast at the Lake Forest location when we were in town for our daughter's U.S. Navy Recruit Training Command graduation. By far the best place we ate when we were in the Chicagoland area. I gave it a nod in my book and encourage anyone visiting Great Lakes to stop there with their sailor during liberty.“

“God bless Egg Harbor Cafe and all personal, The best service“

“Excellent Ramen. Excellent bartender in Helen Try the Mango Tango Vegi Roll.“

“My Husband and I agree that there needs to be more restaurants like the Omega. We both grew up in the area, and felt quite not only nostalgic but at home while dining today. From the moment you walk in the door until you leave, you are surrounded by a soft ambient glow, dark wood paneling, beautiful hanging lamps above each table. Please do not get me started on their bakery items, bread so good you'd swear grandma was in there kitchen whipping it up by the batch load, a dessert/sweets case that could fulfill anyone's sweetest sweet tooth desires. I had to stop myself before I bought one of everything! My husband Had the Gyro Dinner and was in love with the homemade taziki/cucumber sauce, the meat was perfectly cut right off the spit, and homemade pita bread to top it off, plus it came with a very generous portion of house salad, and a bowl of soup. I was getting full just watching him. lol I tried the Grilled Chicken Breast Sandwich, it was amazing, it had loads of melted Swiss cheese and a beautifully grilled chicken breast topped with pineapple(my favorite) all on a fresh baked ciabata roll. it was fantastic! Our waitress was very lovely, super attentive and extremely patient with us, being our first time dining there. Overall I would recommend that you give the Omega a chance, it's like stepping back in time to a simpler, better time, when the food was made with love, and it shows. Thank you for the lovely experience, if we are ever up that way again, we will surely stop.“

“Holy Cow! A Keller Williams team member (Olga) brought in a passion fruit mousse cake to our Libertyville office. It was magical. I'm ordering for an upcoming birthday, and Uber delivers because it's a bit far. Their selection is mind blowing. I'm in cake love.“

“Nice breakfast and great location“

“Great place! Great price! Best place to come in a city :)“

“Everything here is incredibly delicious! I guarantee that anything you try you will love! ☺️ I have been getting my cakes from Gourmet Frog for over 15 years, and from my wedding day to just because I was having a bad day and needed a little treat, it's always a hit! I can't recommend froggies enough! (What I endearingly call them ?)“

“Great corner for watching Evanston go by.“

“a lot of stuff to choosenot that crowded“

“We ordered takeout this afternoon. I’ve been eating vegetarian for about 3 weeks and ordered the vegan chicken and waffles. When I bit into it I got nervous and asked my girlfriend to confirm if she ordered the vegan. After looking at photos of both, we confirmed it was actually the vegan version. One of the best and most convincing vegan “chicken” dishes I’ve ever had. That was great, we will be back.“

“Cutest yummiest cookies… totally worth the visit“

“First time going there after trying to find some different places to eat in the area. I ordered the California turkey wrap and a cookie, and both were amazing! It’s probably not somewhere I’d go to sit down and eat with friends, I don’t think it’s meant for that. But it’s a great place to go and pick up from if you’re looking for good, fresh food. I took one star away because after I got home and saw the email of my receipt I noticed it was a couple dollars more than what I was told as I was checking out. Sure enough there was a $2 tip added. Not upset about a couple extra dollars, but I would’ve appreciated the transparency and the choice to leave a tip. There was no screen that gave me an option to tip so it felt a little shady to me.
Good to note: The office building itself was easy enough to find, but there aren’t any signs to point you in the direction of the actual cafe. You have to go into the west entrance.“

“Cozy Ambience Excellent service Food is superb and served on time“

“Awesome and we enjoy the food“

“Amazing food. fabulous staff. all time fav 😍“

“Wonderful food!!! I love it all!!! I especially like their tamales and flan!!! The owners are hands on, super guys ! They not only create amazing dishes but they give back to the community. Great food! Great hearts! Five stars! C”mon down and enjoy!“

“Huge thank you to Cindy! My baby was sleeping in the car and I didn’t want to wake her. I paid over the phone and cindy ran it out to my car. Great service!“

“I arrived to pick up my online order of 2 Ruebens and one mint milkshake for my mother's 80th birthday! Low and behold, there was a mistake and it had been taken with another online order by mistake. They graciously paid for my children's slices of pizza while we waited and then refunded the entire order. They went above and beyond and we weren't expecting that. Anticipating needs, attention to detail and gracious with the mistake that can happen. Can't wait to return. I had heard they had the best Reubens you have EVER had and my mother agreed. Thank you for such incredible customer service.“

“A small place but the sushi & rolls are so good !
I ordered the Lunch special A - 3 rolls and B - Futo maki. Couldn't finish it, so I brought the left over and ate it. Many Americans were enjoying! Thank you for the owner !

Vegetarian options: Many rolls and more menus !
And we can ask what ingredients to add and remove from the original ingredients.“

“There yummy burgers n fries 😋😋😋😋😍😍😍😍🍔🍔🍔🍟🍟🍟🍟“

“Celebrated my birthday and enjoyed wonderful dinner with my husband!❤️“

“These ladies saved the day! I had a horrible experience with another shop and called them in a panic! And not only were they polite and kind to me, they went above and beyond to meet my needs! Would recommend ! 10 out of 10!! Special thanks to Christy!“
