Gluten-Free Restaurants near Crystal, MN

“Excellent Service... Delicious Pizza...“

“It's Taco Tuesday and I was craving Mexican food, but I didn't just wanna go to the type of place you think of when "Mexican" is brought up... I'm fancy, so I wanted something a bit more upscale. I did a little bit of research and wouldn't you know it... Colita came up. So here's how it went! Atmosphere/Appearance: Set south of downtown and a bit west of The Mall of America on Penn Avenue is this gem. There is no private parking lot, but plenty of street parking to leave your fly ride. But once you walk up to the restaurant you can immediately understand the message they're trying to send. Everything looks so modern, straightforward with straight lines, grey colors and light woods. There is a small outdoor section where you can dine if you get lucky enough to land a spot there. Inside carries a very similar style with a little nod to the pueblos and architecture of the southwest. The decor is minimalistic and the "loudest" thing in the room is the live plant wall seated directly behind the bar, which was super cool. Service: I can't remember who took care of us, but we had no issues whatsoever. Food/Drink: I was able to try so many different dishes and drinks here and the list is below... 🍹: Xochitl In Love 🍸: La Clandestina 🐟: Tuna Tostada 🌮: Chicken Tinga Tostada 🦪: Seared Scallops 🫓: Tlayuda 🥃: Colita Old Fashioned 🥩: Lamb Barbacoa Tacos 🫔: Duck Tamal However, my favorite things were the Lamb Barbacoa Tacos, Duck Tamal and Seared Scallops, in that order. The food here is phenomenal, the drinks are excellently crafted and things are served tapas style so you don't get too full off of just one thing! Order a whole bunch of stuff and share with the table! Value: As I mentioned earlier, I wanted upscale and the priced dddooo reflect that. Lol. This is a nice place so be prepared to spend... Like you're downtown somewhere. In conclusion, I loved this place and I will come back over and over. Check this place out the next time you're in the area!“

“Everything I got was delicious. White Chocolate Raspberry Scone Egg Sausage muffin Hot Chocolate 🤍🤗 Can’t wait to go back“

“Fresh seasonal flavors that are constantly becoming new favorites. I love that everything is a very hands on and not crazy processed like most foods. Try oatmeal cookie or grasshopper if you can.“

“Always a unique selection, friendly service and great tasting ice cream! I need to make up excuses to treat myself. :) The apple crisp and oatmeal raison cookie flavors are 👌“

“10/10. Best in the business“

“Great people, great food, and great morals. Thank you!“

“My husband and I love coming here for our business meetings, usually on Mondays. We always try to sit in Lilly’s section when she’s working — she’s hands down one of the best! Her attention to detail, quick service, and fun personality make every visit awesome. She’s funny, relatable, and just real. You can tell she genuinely enjoys what she does — and it shows. We always look forward to seeing her! 🌟“

“My girlfriend who isn’t GF loves this just as much as her fav non-GF bakeries in the city. Just go here and try it and you will be coming back all the time lol

Some suggestions for management:
- if there could be more DF options that would be awesome.
- being open on Sunday’s would also be awesome and I feel like it would be the busiest day of the week with people getting baked goods for the week“

“Positive-Great tasting food with large portions. Great food choices. Bakery to die for. Friendly service. Negative-Pricey and very noisy. Not a lot of seating. Crowded. I would definitely go back again!!!“

“Wow!! First time here and it did not disappoint!! Delicious!!“

“Northeast MPLS- what a fantastic find, this is truly a small town bakery, small batch production. Their reputation is their best PR! We tripped upon it, while on a quest this weekend to support SMALL/LOCAL businesses in MPLS.

Definitely recommend the apple fritter, no canned apples there! The lemon bars, peanut butter donuts and glazed donuts all thumbs up. New to me was the Paczkis. They stole the show in my book.

As if the pastries weren’t enough to bring us back (and they definitely are) the price was amazing! 6 “donuts” less than $17… Light, fluffy, DELICIOUS, good thing we live 5 hrs away, I’d be there everyday!

If you haven’t found Sarah Jane’s yet, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR ? I’m a donut snob, never been a fan of chain store donuts; you can tell the difference between mass production and small batch, small batch will always win the gold medal! Sarah Jane’s rates as top 3 apple fritter of all time for me…“

“the food and bakery items are all so delicious!!“

“Delicious entrees and desserts! The service was wonderful as well!“

“Our Nauti bowl experience today was great. We usually stop by weekly at other stores nearer to our home, but we happened to be in Plymouth today and enjoyed the cordial staff, fun music and vibes in the store, and the delicious protein bowls we had. The girls were sweet and put our other to-go yacht bowls in the fridge while we ate in the store so they would not melt. A great experience - thank you!“

“The raspberry shortcake cupcake was AMAZING!“

“We hired Brasa Catering for our wedding and couldn't happier with the food and service they provided. We received multiple comments that it was "one of the best wedding meals they've had" from a few guests. Not only was the food delicious, but the crew was extremely kind and went above and beyond for us. Thank you again for everything, we'll keep you in mind for future events!“

“Great food and not overpriced“

“Wow! That brunch buffet was fantastic! I'm from Texas and this was pretty close to the Mexican food I'm used to. Definitely going again and I'm bringing friends!“

“Fantastic Food, great music and the wildest bunch of neighborhood regulars.“

“Lovely place and owners. Had a Bauru, an outstanding steak sandwich, named after my hometown in Brazil. The brigadeiro cake was delicious, perfectly balanced with a scoop of raspberry sorbet. Thank you, Kalinka and team. It was a beautiful taste of home.“

“The Lowbrow always has great food and staff. I want to give a special nod to Dominic. He made my day so much better with his kindness. What he didn't know was that I had just picked up my mom's ashes from The Cremation Society. Thank you! You made me feel cared for.“

“To start, the food was amazing and very refreshing, but more importantly the service and the people working there are amazing and so welcoming. From the moment I walked in the employees Hope and Valentina greeted me and started making conversation about my day, etc. I would 100% come back again and had a great experience!!“

“Can’t wait to go back for great food and service“

“The best cheesecake I’ve ever had & in the most amazing flavors!“

“The best French Onion Soup in the Twin Cities is at The Sunshine Factory.“

“This place is SO cute. The barista was kind and funny and their drinks are delicious! I will admit this place gets pretty busy so good luck finding a seat on the weekends. Also, the only parking is paid street parking nearby, just as an FYI. Very very cute coffee shop though, and I would absolutely return!“

“In Fargo, service is not great. i had one bite of my meal and told waiter he could take it. He never asked why, if anything was wrong, just grabbed it and walked away. I wasn't expecting anything other than for him to know why my meal was not hardly touched. He never came back to table until he brought us the bill.“

“YUM!!! Delicious Neopolitan pizza with fresh ingredients, clean restaurant, food always comes out fast 🤗🍕🥗“

“Amazing food, good service, lovely patio“

“Raw Chicken, I took pictures, they will be posted everywhere as a warning to others.“

“Healthy açaí smoothie bowls filled with essential vitamins and antioxidants that taste great!“

“Hajime is our go-to restaurant in Blaine. We almost always go during happy hour with our kids (age 11). We order solely sushi from the happy hour menu for 4 people along with the Spicy Kani Salad and we usually spend about $100-$125 which generally includes a round or two of happy hour drinks. The service is always great, they usually know exactly what we want when we get there! Recommend for sushi or their hibachi menu - their fried rice and yum yum sauce is delicious!“

“We recently tried Heather’s Pies for the first time and picked up the pies on our way home from the hospital after having a child. Heather’s pies were delicious and her customer service was exceptional! She even gave us one of the pies for free as a congratulations gift to our family! The overall experience was second to none and we highly recommend!“

“Well, you ruined me. I can never go out and get a ribeye at any other restaurant. I have one to two ribeyes a week at high end restaurants. Yours was supreme! There is no second place! The service was top notch from the hostess to the server to the expeditor to the table clean up. I only wished they were not 240 miles away!!“

“Good food
Terrific service
Noisy dining room and loud music often seems to suit the employees not the customers. I only go during off hours when it’s not so noisy. If I were cynical I’d think it’s purposefully noisy to keep guests moving.“

“One of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to. The food is DELICIOUS! This is one of the only restaurants I go to for the actual flavor of the food instead of convenience. I’m gluten free and eat mostly organic and other restaurants have a hard time comparing to my cooking. The gf focaccia is to die for and I’ve never had anything I didn’t like!“

“Quaint...community coffee spot. Trying the Stirato roll with maple almond butter...They also gave a Potato roll too. Chai is on the sweeter side with just enough hint of spice. Service is warm and space has a good vibe....Current Playlist is a whole vibe.“

“Bring back the elote pizza! Hands down my favorite. 😎“

“Not only do they have amazing food they have the best staff and customer service team! There was a mix up with my order not being delivered and to say they went above and beyond to make it right is an understatement. All around wonderful!“

“Since moving to Plymouth, and really, next door to the OPH, I think I have eaten here once a week. The food is DELICIOUS, the wait staff is WONDERFUL, and it's just a welcoming place. Always clean and always accommodating. Such a great place to eat!“
