Gluten-Free Restaurants near Cardiff, CA

“This is one of my happy places. Its by the beach and there's a thriftstore in the same little strip mall. The donuts are super as evidenced by the constant foot traffic and cars coming and going Its got a great vibe. My favorite is the orange glazed. They're all really good. They have more than donuts too. Enjoy!“

“Freshly made to order lavish doughnuts. Not often you can find the taste or warm fresh dough that also comes in a variety of unique flavors. Got the St. Patricks special flavors. Service was super friendly. In some ways it's probably ultimately good for me that I live on the opposite coast so I don't overeat these doughnuts. My kids loved them as well, perfect sizing for them.Parking: In a complex with parking lot. Also ample street parking.Kid-friendliness: Lots of kids and adults enjoying made to order doughnuts“

Kove has a good number of choices, various samples and flavors to try (nice of the staff, who were friendly and welcoming). The entire place has a great atmosphere, indoor seating as well as outdoor setup. Kome on by to try the best yerba mate I have ever had.“

“This place is amazing! The food, the service, the friendly welcome from the family that owns this place- all just outstanding! My husband and I tried the mortadella pistachio sandwich special and picked out a box full of delicious super fresh pastries (they bake their bread and pastries fresh three times/day). This food is as Authentic Italian as you can get, the family is from Italy and they import all of their ingredients from Italy, as well. If you're looking for an amazing Authentic Italian food experience, you NEED to try this place - you'll be so happy you did. Thanks for the delicious food and friendly service, we can't wait to come back next time we're in the area! ❤️“

“We ordered a four layer birthday cake filled with Bavarian cream. It was absolutely delicious. We also bought croissants and an apple strudel, which were heavenly. Everyone at the party raved about the cake. I highly recommend this bakery and am eager to “

“barista dexter was very kind and explained the different coffee flavors. i was not sure what to get and he assured me that if i didn't like it, i can switch it for something else. very good customer service and welcoming aesthetic place. the donuts look very good and they have nice greeting cards!“

“Where to even start with this bakery! Wow, I had Barbara cater the desserts for my wedding and I am so thankful I did! I wanted gf, vegan, no processed sugar, and no refined oils in my desserts - that still tasted amazing. And Plantiful Kitchen deliver! Barbara was so kind and helpful with planning out my desserts, we even had a fun tasting with my family and maid of honor. She made the process so easy and exciting - and was always for responsive. She provided donuts, cookies, the cutest mini cheese cakes, and truffles. And every single one was delicious! The desserts were a highlight of the wedding, my guests couldn't stop talking about them that evening - and to this day they keep saying they were the best desserts they have ever had. Highly recommend Plantiful Kitchen if you are in need of healthy desserts, or just want to stop by to pick up some treats! Thanks Barbara!“

“Best cookies around! Presentation, quality, and flavors are phenomenal. Gifting these cookies is made simple and beautifully. I can't wait to share them with more friends and clients.Dietary restrictions: The Gluten friendly are delicious! Usually I have to lower my bar with gluten free cookies that are dry and yet too sugary. But these Gluten Friendly Classics are chewy, delectable and deliciously balanced in sweetness.“

“I go here at least 3 times a month. I work next store and I refer all my clients to this lovely gem. The pizza is the best in town! My favorite small pepperoni’s. I haven’t had a bad pizza yet. From Hawaiian, to plain cheese. They even offer vegan cheese and cauliflower crust! The owner always goes out of his way! Thank you for the best pizza!“

“Solana Sumptuous falls into the top 3 cookie places in SD county for me; specifically because they make a mean oatmeal chocolate cookie (OAT-M-G). I was introduced to this place by a co-worker who brought in several dozen for us to try on a couple of occasions. Ive had a few different flavors like their Solana Beach, PB, the OG chocolate chip, sea salt caramel, churro, and the Trifecta (stuffed), but the oatmeal chocolate is still my favorite. Single cookies range from $3-$4.50 depending on which one you get, and definitely place an order ahead of time if you're getting more than a few to ensure they have what you want. The in-store service is good and there always seems to be a constant stream of people popping in for a treat.“

“Great service combined with delicious food and a gorgeous oceanfront view make Jake's Del Mar an outstanding choice for a memorable dining experience!! Our party of four enjoyed every plate of food and drink. Thanks to my local cousins, who recommended we meet them there for a delicious and special dinner, and it truly was!!“

“Trudy and Susie were wonderful! The food was delicious. My daughter had the Bushfire burger and I had the salmon bowl with roasted vegetables. Both were great! My daughter's wine tasted a little off, and they comped it, plus giving her another glass on the house! Such great service. We come here quite often and we will continue.“

“one of my favorite vegan restaurants, I love coming to this veggie grill! the food tastes as good as it looks and the staff have always been so friendly :) the nachos and buffalo chicken salads are our favorites! and their desserts are always so good “

“Pricey but the unique flavors and clean ingredients make it worth it! Tried the box of the best 6 donuts for $25 and rated them the following:1. Love and salt2. Huckleberry3. Butter and salt4. Lemon pound5. Old fashion6. Apple fritterAll were soft, light and not too sweet (except the apple fritter, too sweet for me).Definitely recommend stopping by to grab some different flavors that you can’t get anywhere else! Excited for their little Italy location to open.“

“Healthy creations hold a very special place in my heart. Not only do i have a gluten intolerance, i also have an intolerance to terrible service. This place is the opposite of that. John always makes me feel welcome no matter what - sometimes i come in there a hot mess and theyll have my favorite drink waiting for me to purchase cause they know me so well!If you ever see tori, lucy, john or eduardo - be sure to say hi! They are so friendly and they always keep me coming back !“

“This is hands down my favorite restaurant in north county San Diego. I absolutely love it. My favorite thing to get is the green curry with mock duck.Drinks - fantasticDessert - fantasticFood - extra fantasticAtmosphere - beautiful and funStaff - amazing! They are always happy and friendly.I definitely recommend Plumeria.“

“Good assortment of different beers, they’ve come a long way in their brewing, much more refined than initially…Liquid Jam, if left to warm up a little, gets a very floral taste… same happens to the ther of their beers, once they are not as cold, taste much better.As all breweries, the beers are served colder than they should…“

“Great for groups- Large tables and we had children with our group and they were able to play on the turf outside the downstairs area while we were waiting for our food. I ordered the turkey and avocado salad with steak (I like protein) which was absolutely delicious. The protein made it extra filling. A sliced hard boiled egg would have elevated it perfectly so a note to myself to add that next time if it's an option. Lots of healthy options to choose from. Will definitely eat here again.“

“Came here after a hike based on all the good reviews. I will need to try the other things but this sandwich is hella bomb...mostly due to the crunchy/soft bread. I go to a bakery called crème in Claremont and it rivals her ham and buerre sandwich which is saying something. Simple and excellent.“

“Easily the best cakes, they're always moist, sweet and the frosting is delicious. My favorite ones are lemon and strawberry cream. I get it Doordashed quite often and never had a problem with something missing which means their staff is on it, thanks! This is a total crowd pleaser and if it were closer to home, I'd bring it to every event.“

“I had my daughters baby shower here last week. I couldn't have been more pleased. The servers, food, set-up was all excellent. Mario was the manager, and he was constantly checking up with me to see if anything else was needed. A very big thank you to all!“

“Love this sweet little French cafe so much. Great to stop in for a sandwich or a piece of quiche. I always leave with something from their bakery case, too. Their Afternoon Tea service is offered from time to time and it is delicious. The owner, Shiki, is so kind and welcoming. Can’t recommend enough!“

“We had the apple salad to start and the creamy vinaigrette was excellent. Make sure you get the right dressing here. The star of the show was the pizza. I rarely get a medium since the value is usually in the large but even though I like a thin crust, the larges I saw looked a bit anemic. We went with medium. The crust was perfect! The meatballs were perfectly crisped and the ricotta was added after it was cooked so it maintained the creamy texture instead of hardening on the outside when it is cooked. Trust me here, this is my favorite pizza and pizza is one of my favorite foods. The sauce is also the exact acidity I'm looking for. The only downside to this place is how far it is from my house.“

“She made a beautiful amazing cake for my little boy! :D Absolutely delicious and creative! Everyone loved looking at it and eating this masterpiece she made for us! Thank you Brittany Austin for your hard work and the obvious love you put into what you do! You are super sweet and kind. :D“

“We ordered a cake for my mom’s 75th birthday party and there was a small issue. Not only did the owner come to our house to fix it, she also decorated the cake with fresh flowers and it turned out 10X better than ever anticipated. In addition, the cake was the most delicious cake I have ever had. I will never order a cake from anywhere else! This bakery has my loyalty for life!!!“

“Love this place! They have chagacinnos and wonderful healthy baked goods with organic ingredients and vegan gf options. Laron was SUPER sweet by helping me decide what to get and explaining everything so well. She is so kind and made the experience. Thank you! Will definitely be coming back anytime I’m in Del Mar.“

“food was very good only downside is that there is no type of seating terrible terrible seating and no type of busser i don't know if it's like a hospitality thing where you clean your own table but it was very weird ..... but the food was so good .“

“Donuts are great, the maple-bacon bar is very tasty!On a whim the other day we got a couple of sandwiches from here, and WOW were were blown away! They were amazing , would highly recommend, and we will definitely be back for more!Dietary restrictions: They do have some gluten free options in the donut/(muffins?) Section.“

“I’m not vegan, I’m not even vegetarian, but I went with a friend who has food allergies. I loved the nachos my friend had a wrap that she enjoyed as well. The nachos were filling, very tasty, crunchy ‘chips” which I was worried about since they were not the standard corn. We got a few deserts to go but I tasted a chocolate one and it was very very tasty! I was going as a favor for my friend, but I was pleasantly surprised and impressed!!“

“Having a coffee and croissant her makes me feel like I am in the south of France and not in a strip mall. Outdoor seating, French music over the intercom and delicious coffee and treats... even the owner (I believe she is) very pleasant and focused on her customers. If not the owner, she deserves a promotion. Very enjoyable.“

“Lovely people and service! Lot of options on the menu. But I have to say I’ve been here a few times and the food really isn’t too great. Had a southwest salad that was just chips busted up over romaine with shredded cheese, some chicken enchiladas where the meat was kinda dry and funky, and a veggie burger that was also just kinda so so. Still love the place for its massive amount of options and lovely people.“

“Amazing gelato! I was in vacation with my family in Los Angeles and we saw their freezer at this store in Hollywood. Everyone in my family got a different flavor and we all loved it. I tried the pistachio one and it was by far the best pistachio gelato I’ve ever had.“

“I have been a long time lover of CAKES cookies for years. As a student at SDSU, I always made sure to grab a cookie when they were on campus. Now as an adult, I always make sure to grab one when I’m in the area. This year, my husband and I wanted to share our guilty pleasure as party favors for our wedding guests. Instead of purchase the catering box I made a custom order via their website which was so much easier to go over details. I ordered several dozen cookies that came with a few freebies ? they have so many customizable options that are perfect for a wedding or any event. I thought I would have extras but there were 0 cookies left over at the end of the wedding. I am still going to come and get more when I visit. Communication, service and guarantee of order pickup were perfect. THANK YOU CAKED FOR MAKING THE MOST SPECIAL DAY OF MY LIFE SO SWEET “

“Great place to get brick oven wood fired pizzas! Amazing selection and variety of options. Loved their appetizers as well - risotto balls with prosciutto and parmesan cheese, and fried ravioli with ricotta cheese. Their beer selection was great as well - a lot of nice local beer on draft. Loved the Choco porter :) and the dessert, butterscotch pudding, is to die for!!! If you are ever in the Encinitas area and love pizza do try, and you won't be disappointed!!!“

“Looking for the friendly restaurants that are dog friendly? Patio space is open and inviting. Food is good and service was timely! The Vanilla Matcha Tea Latte was delicious, not sweet. Breakfast Snooze classic and Sam I am are our go to favorites!“

“I had high hopes for the brown sugar sage latte but it fell short for me. The sage flavor wasn't really there for me and the almond milk made my drink taste a bit off. I would get oatmilk next time. The tarragon turkey sandwich, however, was AMAZING. 5/5 for the sandwich. The service was quick and the vibe of the shop was cute. A bit expensive but the quality is there.“

“I got a gift of a box... delish! Really elegant, and they would be perfect as a gift (which I enjoyed) or to set out as dessert for your next meeting or party! Very elegant, high-end, so don't get shocked at the price. You really do get what you pay for. I will be using them!“

“Maybe the best breakfast burrito I’ve ever had.To me it tastes like a french gourmet breakfast plate put inside a perfectly grilled tortilla. Comes with hot ketchup they made on the side. Also, they let you swap avocado for the protein which is cool. Can’t recommend highly enough!“

“The tiramisu latte (iced) was SO DELICIOUS.They had fresh pastries that looked great - we tried their banana bread and it was moist and yummy. They also had some sandwich and other food options. The space was cute and inviting, with lovely outdoor seating.“

“This is the place to come if you want healthy and fresh food or juice. It's easy to get too. There is a ton of parking. It's in a industrial park where you would not expect it to be, but there are lots of great places around here, so don't miss this one. Everything on their menu uses Gluten Free, Organic, Dairy Free & 100% Plant Based Ingredients.There is handy cap accessible parking, street parking, and a free parking lot. Indoor and outdoor seating available.“

“This is a great neighborhood place with warm, friendly professional staff. The managers, bartenders, waiters staff and bus people are all excellent. The piano players add a really nice touch as well. We love this place. Oh yeah, the food and drinks are top notch as well!“

“Most of the food was really good. Do not order the chocolate souffle. It's more of a defrosted hockey puck. Shameful that they even tried to serve that when they are known to be a quality restaurant. Then paying at the end was awful. They insisted we use our phones and their QR code. It didn't work for most of us. Geeze McDonald's can do better! I would come here again if my group chooses to but not eat dessert and I would use cash.“

“The salads and pastas are great the pizza I had Friday was not, it was thin flavorless and weird mix of crunchy and tough. Double checked my order to make sure I did get gluten free by mistake. Was bummed. Well get my sides here and pizza at Grand Slam.“

“Happy Hour Daily 4-6pm, great selection of drinks and appetizers and the bartenders are super chill. The music flows and creates such a vibe in the place, centrally located in the village in Carlsbad this place definitely merits your attention.“

“We always enjoy this restaurant, but the last time we visited it was an exceptional experience. We were there just after opening. Coffee was very good. The waitress was so friendly and professional, and she recommended the 3 Benedict sampler. Yummy! My boyfriend and I shared it. It was enough for two, and DELICIOUS!! Especially the portobello mushroom bacon one! We would never have selected this. Glad we took her suggestion. Looking forward to our return!“

“Got to come here for the first time with my friends! I had a cup of decaf coffee twas very fruity and cool experience! I like the vibe of this shop on the slight hill top! Friendly staffs are ready to serve you! Keep up the good work! Cheers“

“If it wasn't for the people racing up and down Pac Hwy, this place would be perfect. The screaming motorcycles and dopes with loud exhaust echo through the restaurant. We had to yell through the noise during lunch. The food was fab and so was the service. About a 10 min wait to get into the door. I'll be back...“

“Came here for the first time around 1:30 on March 1 Friday. Decided to stop by on my way home from UTC. Easy place to enter from Miramar road. Ordered the Joes Special and Philly with mushrooms. As I entered I was immediately greeted by a nice lady. Super friendly and helpful. Order was made fresh and quickly. She didn't call out my order number when it was ready she actually came out to the table and handed it to me and offered me hot sauce. Overall the food was good and service was great. Will def be back soon. =)“
