The Five Best Gluten-Free Spots in Dallas

Blog· Food and Drinks· Reviews

Lilly NeubauerMy name is Lilly, and I am so excited to be hopping over from my blog, Pancakes and Beet Juice, to write for Dallas Socials today! I love to write about mine and my family’s adventures around Dallas, and I love exploring through food. I thought being diagnosed as gluten intolerant three years ago might make that last part more difficult, but I am lucky that Dallas has some phenomenal options for going gluten free when dining out or wanting a special treat.

The Five Best Gluten Free Spots in Dallas #restaurants #food #glutenfree

Many local eateries, bakeries and shops offer gluten-free selections, but if I had someone in town with me that I wanted to show the best of our city’s gluten-free offerings, these five would be at the top of my list (and in no particular order):

  1. The Asian Mint : These Asian and Thai food restaurants on Oak Lawn and Forest Lane are amazing for gluten-free and normal diets alike. Almost all of their extensive menu sports the orange G next to it, letting you know it can be prepared or naturally comes gluten-free. I love the cashew pineapple fried rice with either chicken or fried tofu.
  1. Fireside Pies: The gluten-free crust here is a thinner version than Fireside Pies’ typically bubbly crust, but you can tell they took their time finding a supplier that would be consistently great and perfectly complement their pies and brick oven flavor. This was a special occasion place before finding out I was gluten intolerant, but now I’m here much more often because I think they have the best gluten-free pizza in town! Specialty dessert items on their chalkboard are also often able to be prepared gluten-free.

  1. Tulu’s Gluten Free Bakery: This all gluten-free bakery has locations in West Village and on Sherry Lane, and carries awesome treats for everyone. Every one of their recipes are perfect in my mind. The frosted cookies are buttery. The chocolate chip cookies are crisp on the edges and chewy in the middle.  The cheddar jalapeno cornbread muffins are packed with flavor. This is where I go every time I want a treat I know I’ll love, and Tulu’s always delivers.

  1. Taverna by Lombardi: With a great location right off the Katy Trail, mood lighting and an attentive and friendly staff, Tavena is a gluten-free date night dream. Their risottos can be prepared gluten free, and they have gluten-free pizza and pasta selections as well. When I go here I love to split a risotto and a pizza with my sister or husband, and we’re always stuffed and happy by the end of our meal!

  1. Nick and Sam’s Grill: The gluten-free selections on the brunch menu cannot be beat. It is such a treat to be able to enjoy a big plate of French toast when  out with friends, and I also love their egg and bacon sandwich on a fluffy gluten-free bun. It is always wonderful to be able to eat gluten-free at a place that is popular amongst all types of people, and if you hit this spot on a sunny Saturday or Sunday morning, you definitely know that’s the case.

I think the service, attention to detail and innovative menus make all of the above places wonderful additions to our Dallas restaurant list, for those who are gluten-free or not. As we learn more about diets and helping people feel their best selves, it is great to know that so many wonderful outposts are already working with us to make sure we feel accommodated and have just as great of a time as everyone else!

One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesse One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesses adapting and making things work! I was recently introduced to @savageburritos and I'm in love.  Savage Burritos is the love child of Uncle Julios so it you like UJ, you'll love Savage.  They are a delivery only service offering burritos and bowls from select Uncle Julio kitchens in DFW. We ordered a variety of items from burritos, bowls, queso and more. Every single item was bursting with flavor. If you like spicy,  I highly recommend the Nashville Hot Chicken Burrito. 🔥 Don't forget to add on a Margarita pop - nothing beats alcohol and Mexican food delivered straight to your door!

I know this year has dragged on and on for many pe I know this year has dragged on and on for many people but it has flown by to me. I'm 100% sure it has something to do with welcoming Myles into this world during the height of a pandemic and keeping a toddler alive at the same time.  I can't wait for Christmas morning to make memories with my little family (even though Christmas shopping isn't complete and I haven't even thought about wrapping presents). It will all fall in to place, it always does. We didn't attend our favorite Christmas events this year or get pictures with Santa so this random Santa picture will do and I'm 100% happy with it.  If this year has taught you anything,  let it be finding the joy in the little things ❤
The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Althoug The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Although things might be a bit different this season, we're still enjoying some of our favorite foods and traditions. This year we're incorporating ordering family meal kits from @chuysrestaurant for not only my family but extended family that we might not be able to hang with this holiday.  It's a simple way to spread the joy with loved ones, eat delicious food and not forget the reason for the season.  #ad #nachoaverageholiday
Family pictures are always so much fun.... this ye Family pictures are always so much fun.... this year we got to attempt it twice thanks to sweet Bryce.  Thankfully the second time around he cooperated. As painful as they may be,  I'm so glad we get these done every year. I love looking back at them and see how much we've all changed and how much the kids have grown!
Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We got our family pictures back and they look great other than the fact that Bryce decided not to participate. We got one shot with my entire family and Bryce is off to the side playing in poison ivy. 🤦‍♀️

I wanted to send a quick thank you for all the birthday love yesterday! Birthdays are not my favorite day but it was nice to hear from so many people. Here's to another year around the sun ❤
This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city r This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city ran completely by kids. Your child gets to fully immerse themselves into role playing any job they can imagine. From checking animals at the veterinarian, putting out fires as a firefighter,  flying planes in an simulator, creating their own personal logo with Bic, or being a weatherman at WFAA - the options are endless! Kidzania activities are for ages 4 and up.

We felt very comfortable inside with their safety protocols. Temperatures were checked before entering.  Everybody ages 4 and up must wear a mask.  Hand sanitizer was readily available throughout the entire space.  If you're looking for a fun outlet for your child to explore, check it out!
