When you have a gluten allergy, intolerance, or aversion, your life doesn’t have to be less tasty. These are the best restaurants in Nashville with designated (and delicious) gluten-free items—including beer!
restaurants with Gluten-Free items
Amerigo
If you’re craving Italian, Amerigo has a separate gluten-free menu so you can enjoy your entire meal—it’s full of appetizers, pastas and desserts.
Avo
The majority of Avo’s menu is plant-based, certified kosher, and gluten-free. Try the pad thai (with kelp noodles), kale caesar, or squash quinoa bowl.
Bartaco
Bartaco offers a variety of gluten-free options. From chips to tortillas to tacos to bowls, their menu features delicious GF dishes.
Diskin Cider
Stop by Diskin Cider to enjoy a variety of naturally gluten-free ciders made from a custom blend of fresh pressed apples.
Fido
Come to Fido hungry, leave full of gluten-free sourdough French toast, buckwheat pancakes or any of the sandwiches served on GF bread.
Kayne Prime
Kayne Prime is one of Nashville’s most popular steakhouses, but they are also know for tasty starters (like cold water oysters), greens (like black kale and shishito peppers), and market-fresh options (like salmon and scallops).
Mafiaoza’s
At Mafiaoza’s we recommend ordering a 14-inch gluten-free pizza and stack it with toppings like basil, artichokes or Spanish chorizo!
Margaritaville
If you find yourself hungry and on Broadway, don’t panic. Margaritaville’s burgers are available on a gluten-free bun, and modifications can be made to most of the salads and entrees.
Mellow Mushroom
At Mellow Mushroom you can transform any pie by selecting the 10-inch gluten-free crust, available at both the Downtown and Midtown locations.
Pfunky Griddle
The Pfunky Griddle’s main attraction—pancakes with a glorious selection of toppings like fruit, Nutella and Reese’s Pieces—can be served gluten-free, as can its French and regular toasts.
Porta Via Ristorante e Bar
At Porta Via Ristorante e Bar you can substitute gluten-free bucatini in any pasta entree, or create your own pizza with gluten-free crust.
Sunflower Cafe
It’ll take you a long time to taste-test every gluten-free item at Sunflower Cafe. Choose from entree salads, quinoa and rice bowls, and wraps and veggie burgers served on either a housemade vegan bun or a brown rice wrap. Round out your meal with a gluten-free side like sweet potato casserole or curried chickpea salad.
Tavern
Tavern, an ultra-popular spot in Midtown, is known for their top-notch brunch offerings, as well as menu items like their Tuscan kale and parmesan salad, tacos de casa on corn tortillas, and “Bazooka” guacamole. For heftier options, try the Tavern Burger without a bun or steak and eggs.
True Food Kitchen
At True Food Kitchen, pretty much anything on their menu can be accommodated to gluten-free! We recommend trying their roasted brussel sprouts, grilled sustainable salmon, and shrimp tacos.
Two Boots
Your best bet for pizza in Midtown is at Two Boots, which offers gluten-free crusts for its small and medium pies (add $2 and $3.50, respectively). Non-dairy cheese is also available here, FYI.
Vegan Vee
Go ahead and order anything here—from muffins to cupcakes to donuts, the entire menu at this takeout vegan bakery is gluten-free. (It’s only open Saturday for pick-up, but you can also find Vegan Vee goodies at The Produce Place, Thistle Stop Cafe and Wild Cow.)
Whiskey Kitchen
Make your way to Whiskey Kitchen for elevated pub grub and modern American cuisine. The WK Edamame, WK House Wedge, and seared salmon always deliver a flavorful punch, but you really can’t go wrong here.
Wild Cow
Naturally gluten-free items—like tacos and wraps made with corn tortillas—are noted on Wild Cow’s menu, but make a point to address gluten allergies with your server to avoid potential cross-contamination.
