Gluten-Free Restaurants in Rochester, NY

“Cheesy Eddie's did the dessert for our wedding, and everyone raved about how delicious it was, long after the wedding! We ordered a small cake for my husband and I to cut, and then ordered a variety of minis for our guests. They were the perfect size to get a few different options, and everything was amazing. All night long there were people at the dessert table telling everyone that walked by to try it!“

“This was our first time enjoying a meal from this restaurant. I ordered the gramm burger with grilled vegetables and my husband, Mike had the duffy burger with the rosemary garlic fries. I also got a small side of sweet potato fries dusted with cinnamon with a side of honey. The hamburger's were cooked to our liking, the grilled vegetables were delicious, but the thick sweet potato fries were amazing!!😍😍 We did take out, but the interior is warm with an artisan flair. We will definitely eat here again with friends.“

“Our first time here and we will be back. This was one of the best restaurant experiences we have ever had. Thank you for the delicious meal, hospitality and the lovely environment. 🤍“

“Outstanding dinner, the salmon and filet were both perfect! The spinach fritters should be an appetizer if they were so delicious!“

“Love their cheesecake.
I came here Saturday morning to get a cheesecake. After reviewing many places, I decided to try out Cheesy Eddie, and their cheesecake does not disappoint me. It’s creamy and not too sweet as other bakery (still a little bit sweet for me, but their sugar level is acceptable). The store is small and a bit hidden. Staffs are friendly. The only thing I wish is the 1lb type could be a bit cheaper. Or I think getting 2lb will be better value“

“The food is outstanding. It's served tapas style and a really great price at $5 per plate. My family eats mostly vegetarian and we were able to have a huge variety and share a ton of dishes. The restaurant is in a in older building and the menus are photocopies of a hand written menu, so it is definitely a hole-in-the-wall kind of place.“

“Spectacular Sushi, beautifully crafted, served exceptionally.“

“Delicious cupcakes and frosted sugar cookies, all gluten free“

“Incredible sweet potato fries in a historic firehouse!

Hose 22 Firehouse Grill has such a fun and unique atmosphere. It’s a beautifully restored firehouse, and the classic decor throughout really makes the dining experience memorable.

The absolute highlight for me has to be the sweet potato fries—they are truly TOP NOTCH. I still get a vivid memory of that taste every time I look back at our pictures from that visit! The food is consistently good, and the staff does a great job maintaining the historic charm of the building. If you are in the Rochester area and want a great meal in a one-of-a-kind setting, this is a must-visit spot. Don't skip the fries!“

“Best cheesecake I’ve ever had in my life it is so so soooooooo good it is almost orgasmic, just thinking about it I am drooling 🤤 a mist try if you are a cheesecake fan ! Also tried the banana bread it is really yummy and those ginger turmeric bar are also really yummy. The bread is different a little like a pumpernickel I really liked it ! Love this place it’s one of the hidden gems of ROC glad we tried it ❤️“

“Crispy Eggplant Parm Sandwich w/ House Chips and Chocolate Coconut Mousse were all delicious, and the service that I received from Ian was both welcoming and attentive. This was the first time that I’ve been out to eat in a while, when I didn’t have to worry so much about compromising flavor, in place of excessive dairy and meats. The Owl House is a winner- I’ll definitely be back! 🤤👍🏼“

“Love this place and find myself there a few times per month. The food never disappoints! Outstanding flavor. Always fresh. Love that there is always something new to try (but then I also miss some of my favorites that don’t make it back on the menu). Highly recommended!“

“Does anyone know the name or business name of the young man that sells seamoss gel and herbs?“

“Scratch has made quite a few different desserts for my family and they have gone above and beyond expectation every time. Just when you think their cakes are the best you’ve ever had, their cookies and fresh doughnuts enter the arena too. 🤣 I cannot stress enough about how great their treats and staff are. ❤️“

“I’ve loved everything I’ve tried here! Even if I’m doing a quick market trip, I grab a delicious coconut bar, breakfast blueberry and banana one or soup to bring and enjoy later because I know it’s going to taste great and be packed with flavor. You can really tell she puts so much love into the menu and food and I love this place.“

“Java's is a Rochester gem. Friendly staff, lots of options on menu, warm inviting atmosphere. Big fan of this place.“

“We recently had a surprise 40th birthday celebration for my daughter. There were 14 guests. We had brunch on a Sunday. Everything was wonderful. The General Manager, Webster was great to work with. He was very professional as well as personable. The staff was amazing. Very polite & we had exceptional service. The food was delicious. Everyone was very pleased with what they had. We would highly recommend the Brown Hound.“

They are primarily a wholesale operation but do have a small store front where you can purchase their products. They also offer catering for your events.“

“My picky vegetarian 9-year old loved Susan's battered tofu, Asian noodles and rice. Chef Susan catered a menu designed to her tastes- while offering variety to the rest of the family. My daughter even asked for seconds! There was plenty of food for all of us and the cost was extremely reasonable. We had a nice, healthy family dinner tonight.“

“The atmosphere was was great. Our waitress Bella( at the Rochester one) was amazing. Very knowledgeable and friendly sling with our hostess and other table help. Was a great experience. The only thing I was disappointed in ( which wasn’t any of these peoples doing) was my porterhouse steak. For the money, it should have been a nice cut. It was an end cut, one that even some stores don’t use…let alone a very upscale restaurant. It was also supposed to be med rare n was med. I didn’t send it back because st least it was pink, but it was well past med rare. My crab cake was very good. The lobster and crab mac and cheese was also very good. I’d definitely recommend and go back. Just not sure if I’d get the porterhouse again. Probably go with just the filet.“

“Absolutely one of best Italian restaurants ever frequented. Exceptional“

“Amazing food. Way better than Bella pasta“

“My server Christine was absolutely amazing and attentive throughout my experience, I was impressed with her professionalism and good energy, so much so that it enraged me when I overheard the bartender, Mischa yelled across the bar at Christine to “pay attention to the door” where she looked away for a millisecond. As someone who has worked in restaurants for over 10 years I felt the tension in the employees interactions the moment I walked in and didn’t understand why until I heard Mischa being disrespectful to Christine. I took the time to ask him to come over and I expressed my concerns and he claimed he would apologize however I highly doubt that he will“

“Great food, staff are friendly and we love Trivia Night! Feels like Cheers but in Penfield.“

“Fantastic food as always!! Duck was cooked perfectly!“

“The sweets here are usually very good. They have a good variety to choose from. Their brewed coffee is never that great. They do have the biggest selection of flavor shots however so that sometimes covers the taste. The drinks besides normal coffee are typically good as well“

“Love sitting inside near giant glass windows... or outside in warm weather. Wonderful, lovely music. Quiet atmosphere. Food is very good & generous portions. Nice variety of coffees & teas. Also really enjoy looking at all the decor, based on Susan B. Anthony & other important women. Location is where she originally (illegally) voted ! Friendly, nice place > to meet or on your own.“

“I hosted a party at O'Callaghan's last weekend and had the best experience! The staff were so accommodating and flexible with our group. There were 25 of us in attendance and Savannah the bartender was such a massive help and so incredibly friendly. We all can't wait to visit again! The backyard patio/deck is stunning also this time of year, and there was a huge tent in the backyard open for anyone to use. What an awesome space that deserves more attention!“

“Best coffee & healthy food“

“The service and atmosphere were outstanding. The menu is reasonably priced and the portions are great. They served our meals quickly without compromising quality. The chicken and steak hibachi meal with fried rice was fresh, hearty, and delicious. The staff members were friendly, attentive, and eager to offer an amazing dining experience. I will be returning soon to sample other items from their menu!“

“Salena’s Mexican Resraurant is more than just a place that serves food, it is a home. I have countless memories at Salenas that I will never be able to forget.

I love that Salenas is a local, family owned business, and I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone who asks me about it.“
