Gluten-Free Restaurants near Villa Park, IL

“I used to frequent the Aurora location, then I moved and realized my gluten intolerance. Decided to try this location again and requested a lettuce wrap instead of a bun for my favorite sandwich The Sizzler. They were nice to accommodate my request and it was DELICIOUS! Highly recommend“

“Had a fabulous bowl for lunch. It was my first time and they explained everything before I ordered. Healthy and delicious. The food is a party in your mouth- so many flavors. Will be coming back asap. Hope they open a BIBIBOP in Minneapolis.“

“Auntie Amy has made our lives so much simpler, and tastier. Kateri's desserts are out of this world (so to speak).“

“Two GREAT employees last night! First is Claude. Made a surprise rum drink from scratch and served it himself. Could not have asked for a better cocktail. Second is Andrew. Very thoughtful and was right there for everything with suggestions and service. They made for a very GREAT time.“

“Food and service fantastic. They were running behind with reservations but they comped us drinks an an appetizer...which is pretty unheard of these days. Rachel, our server, was phenomenal, I liked her so much I even asked her to help me "customize" my pasta dish, which she happily did (and it turned out great! The lobster diavolo but with vodka sauce...keeping the spice level.) Caesar salad good but not traditional...and missing anchovies (I know, I'm weird. Very fresh ingredients though.) We were a party of 6 and everyone loved their food. Reasonable prices too. Will definitely be back! Only wish it weren't so cramped inside.“

“The food here is FANTASTIC. We ordered the stuffed banana peppers, coconut shrimp, salmon that’s on corn tamale cake (oh my goodness), seafood linguine, and lobster mac n cheese. We were both really impressed with how delicious all of the food was. Our waiter Jorge was so kind and attentive. We’ll definitely be back. Highly recommended.“

“Food was excellent. Service impeccable! Will definitely go back again!“

“Very nice restaurant and delicious food For the first time there i am very thankful to our server Dilnaz and specially the girl Sky who explained and recommended what should I try and make sure everything was OK Thank you Thank you“

“It’s been the best pizza in Downers Grove for over 40 years maybe. I used to work there a long long time ago. We were great then and they’re great now.“

“Delicious food! Takes me back to dinner at my Bohemian grandma's house. Thank you for bringing back such wonderful memories!“

“Outstanding from Start to Finish!

We recently placed a catering order from Lucca for a big company luncheon. They just rolled out their catering menu, so we were one of the firsts to try it. And let me say - the food and service truly exceeded all expectations.

From the very first interaction with Sonia, her team was professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our event a success. They were incredibly accommodating with menu options and special requests to make sure our luncheon was a success.

The food itself was absolutely phenomenal—beautifully presented, fresh, and bursting with flavor. Every dish was a hit with our guests, and we received countless compliments throughout the afternoon. It was clear that high-quality ingredients and great attention to detail were a top priority.

The staff that delivered the food were punctual, friendly, and highly organized, ensuring we had everything without us having to worry about a thing.

If you’re looking for a reliable, high-quality catering service that delivers both exceptional food and outstanding service, I can’t recommend Lucca Osteria & Bar highly enough. We will absolutely be using them again for future events!“

“there is a fantastic rock and roll brunch menu. the service is excellent. and I can highly recommend the Long Island Iced Teas.“

“Let’s go!! Gluten Free and Nut free!! That’s hard not to pass up! Come join us and try out some delicious South Korean food!“

“Awesome food and drinks! But you have to sit in Katrina’s section. You won’t be disappointed. She’s knowledgeable, honest, and funny! Your experience will be better if she’s your server!“

“Kama Bistro is the best Indian restaurant, hands down! I can't believe they are so low on your list (even after Blueberry Cafe, no offense Blueberry!). Whenever we've eaten at Kama, we are always so happy that we did. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Highly, highly recommend.“

“We’re so fortunate to have this gem of a local bakery nearby. My celiac daughter loves that she can eat ANYTHING from here. I’m not GF, and I think everything is delicious too. We love Sweet Ali’s!“

“The service was quick. Food was delicious. Smoothie was fantastic! Definitely will return.“

“Such a treasure! We were drawn to the thoughtfully created menus - rotations of unique menus that tell a story via the tastes of places; as well as the dietary options (vegan, gluten free, etc) that make it accessible and tasty for all. The tea and food were amazing, the shop is so cute, and the staff were so kind. A great experience all around!“

“Everything I’ve had from here has been delicious! Highly recommend!“

“its so good and many to choose from. This would be a good place to go eat especially on date night.“

“Ok ordered there twice in the past week again. Tried something new this time, romaine, chicken, broccoli, eggs and cheese and just as good as the bowl i get with purple rice, chicken and broccoli. Oh and cant forget the yum yum sauce! ❤️❤️ absolutely love there food ❤️❤️ Wish we had one in the Lockport area. I can only get it when I'm at work in Downers Grove or Lagrange.“

“The absolute best breakfast skillets in the NW suburbs in my opinion. Large,open family appropriate atmosphere. The food portions are very generous and delicious. Staff has always been very friendly and efficient. I always leave feeling quite satisfied and carrying a take out container for another full meal the next day. I’ve also gone to the Saint Charles location where the menu has a few variations but the same great food and service.“

“I love this place! Good!!“

“Amazing vegan options! They were able to do any dish pretty much with tofu instead of meat. Super flavorful and delicious! The fried rice without eggs was great too. Would highly recommend!

Our server, Connor, was truly one the best servers we've ever had in recent years. He was so positive about everything, extremely friendly, was well versed in veganism, checked in on us often and made wonderful suggestions! Truly amazing!!“

“I got the yellow curry and it was amazing! I was in the mood for thai and tried this spot randomly and it did not disappoint. The servings are huge, perfect for leftovers. We also got the chicken satay and it was big juicy pieces of chicken. Can't wait to come here again.“

“All was amazing for our first visit.“

“If you love meat, this Brazilian steakhouse is a must-visit! The ambiance is warm and inviting, with friendly staff who guide you through the *rodizio* dining experience. The Picanha and Fraldinha are absolute highlights—perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor! The salad bar is extensive, and the Caipirinhas are refreshing. Don’t forget to try the Pudim for dessert! Overall, a fantastic place to indulge in delicious Brazilian cuisine. Highly recommend! 🍽️✨“

“Bar and liquor store combo with a great atmosphere, friendly staff, and a great selection of whiskey and beer.

We had our rehearsal dinner there, and it was exactly what we wanted. Very much our style. Saved us a bunch of money doing it there vs our other options. And the nice thing was that we were able to cater whatever food we wanted there.

We also got the spirits for our wedding through them. They had the best prices from everything we vetted, and we were able to return all the unopened bottles that were leftover after the event.

Thanks again to Dillon, the owner, who is a really nice guy!“

“It's so yummy the food and staff are great. I go there often.“

“This is a wonderful place to have a meal! Super friendly people, very accommodating of allergies, and delicious food! Highly recommend!“

“I thought the food was great. Front desk staff appeared overwhelmed and did not present a welcoming vibe. We had a table of 5 but had to ask for silver wear for 3 more people and water for 2 more. The atmosphere is loud. Lots of children running around. Seemed a bit chaotic. Not sure I'd come here again“

“awesome food awesome drinks awesome service five stars easy“

“Also a weird waitress that overserved. kept asking if we needed anything literally every 2-3 minutes. Great menu. Not the cleanest place. run down and dirty“

“Would definitely recommend their double dough pizza. All their food is great but their double dough pizza is what I think they are the best at. I work nearby and every time people ask where is a great place to eat, I always recommend Grand Stand if they have a taste for pizza. Plus I just ordered from them late last night, my order was esitmated for 11:30, they got my house at 10:50. Very fast, very delicious, and very fresh.“

“I came here just looking for a good cup of coffee and instead I ended up with a great latte. I ordered a medium latte with lavender and honey and it was absolutely delicious! Unfortunately, this time I didn't order any food however, the menu looks quite tasty giving a few great breakfast and lunch options.

The overall atmosphere is quite cozy while still giving a very modern feel. This place would make a cute date spot or a great place to grab some coffee and get to work on your laptop.“

“Great food / gluten free options! 👍🏻“

“Easily enough food for two meals and endless options! Food was all fresh and it’s nice knowing you hit all your food groups in one meal. So glad to have another quick, easy and healthy go to close to home!“

“Easily the healthiest food options in terminal 5, especially if you’re eating a high protein diet. Had the black bean bowl, which was fresh, tasty and filling. And a great deal for airport food at $12. The woman that took my order was super nice, and the food came fast. Will definitely be my go to in T5 from now on.“

“Great food, great service, and many vegan options - Thank you!“

“Our server Esmeralda was so fun and energized! Checked on us frequently! We had excellent fruity (happy hour) drinks and mozzarella cheese sticks for our appetizer! (They were served with a delicious warm tomato sauce! Approved! I'm Italian, so very picky about my pasta and sauces and don't usually order pasta dishes at Italian restaurants, for that reason! We both opted for the white fish entree, because a friend recommended it! Glad we did! (The generous fish portion was served with a delicate white sauce and sautéed spinach & grilled carrot slices!) Don't miss the whitefish!!! (I added a side of garlic & oil linguine; but l I ended up taking home half of my dinner! Excellent portion size! The room had enough light and was spacious; the tables were spread out~ in a good way... it was a Friday night and we did not feel crowded or rushed, at all! Because it was my birthday, we HAD to have dessert~ even though our bellies were full! Lots of dessert choices.... Thankfully, because I am not a tiramisu lover and that's usually what most other Italian restaurants offer! Our sever surprised me with a chocolate Dubai torte which really sounded good. We nibbled on it... It was crunchy and different; didn't love it, so we opted to add coffee and cannolis. Very nice firm shells, freshly made, and not too sweet... however, there were NO chocolate chips inside! I usually prefer mini chocolate chips on the outside ends, too, but definitely mini chocolate chips belong on the INSIDE of a cannoli~ for me! That would be my only complaint! We will go back to try the pastas! Buon Appetito!“

“Nice low key spot, very nice service“

“Everyone is so friendly. The cakes are amazing cost friendly and most importantly are delicious!!“

“Crumbcrusher really pulled through with a last minute cake for my daughter’s birthday- it was beautiful and delicious!“

“Excellent service and a really nice atmosphere, with plenty of good food choices, especially if you’re looking for healthier options. Two of us had breakfast along with lattes, and the total came to around $60 before tip, which feels pretty typical for inner city Chicago pricing.

The maple bacon was fantastic. We did wait about 15 minutes, but the place was clearly busy, so it made sense. Overall, a great experience.“

“Stefanie is awesome! The whole staff is positive.“

“I had the best dining experience here! I was very impressed! My server Cristian was absolutely WONDERFUL! He was polite, kind and very attentive. My drink was always full and the food was excellent. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I will definitely come back!“

“Yum. The food was fantastic.“

“I have take out from here quite often as I work in the area. Food is always done properly, each and every time. Monday I dined in and had a wonderful experience. Great staff, solid service. Shout out to the server Micheal great energy, definitely a people person. Highly recommend for a traditional breakfast.“

“So long Sprinkles. I have a new favorite cupcake bakery —Courageous Cupcake. They are moist, delicious and made with fresh quality ingredients. The employees are super friendly and kind.“
