Your Home For Restaurant & Product Reviews Free From Gluten & Dairy
As a college student, I am ashamed to admit that I don’t eat as healthily as I should. I know that I need lots of fruits, vegetables, and protein in my diet but between class, work, and other commitments, I find that I rarely have a spare hour in the kitchen to whip up a balanced meal. I turn more often than not to frozen, canned, or packaged meals to get […]
I don’t eat as much pizza as I used to when I first started this blog. I blame some stellar gluten-free pizza experiences for this because once you’ve had a good gluten-free pizza, it’s hard to settle for an often overpriced, cardboard-tasting pathetic pizza. After hearing positive reviews about Washington D.C.’s Pi Pizzeria, I decided to pay them a visit, lured by the promise of delicious pizza prepared safely. Even […]
When it comes to “fast food” Mexican restaurants, I have always held the less-than-popular opinion that Qdoba is the best of the chain restaurants out there. With flavorful food and lots of gluten-free and dairy-free options to choose from, I’ve never had a bad meal from Qdoba… plus their guacamole never incurs an extra charge! Since Qdoba is not 100% gluten-free, knowing how to navigate the menu is important, as […]
For gluten-free foodies, The Little Beet is a gluten-free haven in Washington DC. This New York City export is 100% gluten-free, and promises seasonal fare, farm-to-table ingredients, and peace of mind when dining out. Since my first review of The Little Beet, their menu and options have changed enough to warrant an updated blog post. The menu has been reorientated around design-your-own bowls, with a rice, grains, or salad as […]
From one location in Dartmouth, Massachusetts to over 20 locations today, Not Your Average Joe’s has made a name for itself by focusing on from-scratch cooking and unparalleled service. I’ve heard for awhile that Not Your Average Joe’s had a great gluten-free menu- and even better- a can-do attitude when it comes to dietary restrictions. The restaurant has been on my to-try list for awhile, but their Virginia and Maryland […]

In following other gluten-free bloggers, I have heard incredible things about the restaurant chain Not Your Average Joe’s. In a world where gluten-free dinners are lucky to get a menu with symbols indicating gluten-free fare, Not Your Average Joe’s set out to change the paradigm around gluten-free eating- starting with creating a lengthy […]
After a successful visit to Veloce, a fast casual pizza place in Farragut Square neighborhood (see my review), I knew a visit to Pizzeria Paradiso was in order to try out their original pizzeria concept. One unique thing about Pizzeria Paradiso is that they place the emphasis on perfecting their pizza crust. As a gluten-free diner, I’m used to soggy, sad, and altogether subpar crusts, so I definitely had some […]
This post features menus for Hill Country Barbecue Market. To check out my full review, click here. This post features th Barbecue can be hit or miss for those of us with dietary restrictions. With hidden ingredients in meats and sauces, plus an emphasis on cornbread and other glutenous sides, I’ve had limited success in finding safe BBQ to try. When walking up the restaurant-dense 7th St corridor in D.C. one […]
Although I consider myself to be pretty adventurous food-wise, I am ashamed to admit that I have a limited experience with Korean fare. In doing research to find new foodie spots to try, I stumbled across Mandu, a homestyle Korean restaurant that promised many gluten-free options. With many positive reviews and online menus indicating gluten-free awareness, Mandu has been on my list of places to try soon. Located in the […]
This is a post featuring the allergen menus of China Chilcano. To read my full review, click here. As a Washington D.C.-based foodie, I am a huge fan of our hometown super chef Jose Andres. His restaurants are innovative, creative, and are consistently stellar when dealing with food allergies. With restaurants ranging from fast casual to high end, there’s a Jose Andres restaurant for any budget. Recently I decided to check out China Chilcano, Andres’ restaurant […]
