100% Dedicated Gluten-Free Restaurants in Los Angeles

Modern Bread and Bagel is the rare kind of place that lets you exhale—that deep, grateful sigh when you realize every single thing on the menu is safe. As a 100% dedicated gluten-free facility, they've built their entire operation around celiac safety, down to sourcing from trusted flour blends and offering ingredient transparency for those with additional allergies. The sheer variety is almost overwhelming: hand-rolled bagels, flaky croissants, donuts that melt in your mouth, and savory brunch plates that finally let celiacs join in on the bagel shop tradition without worry. If you've ever longed for the freedom to order anything—literally anything—without a second thought, this is your haven.

Shojin is a true haven for celiacs—this is an entirely gluten-free, plant-based restaurant where the anxiety of cross-contact simply melts away. Every dish, from truffle tempura to creative sushi rolls, is crafted in a 100% gluten-free environment, and they take allergy accommodations seriously (even providing a separate oat-free menu for those who need it). You can feel the care in every detail: staff are well-versed in allergens, ingredients are transparent, and there's a rare sense of relief knowing you can order anything without second-guessing. Honestly, Shojin feels like that rare unicorn—a spot where you can actually relax and just savor every bite.

Fatamorgana Gelato is the kind of place that feels like it was dreamed up just for us—folks with celiac, by someone who truly gets it. The founder, Maria Agnese Spagnuolo, has celiac disease herself and built this entire gelateria as a haven: it's 100% gluten-free, from the cones to the tiramisu, so you can order anything without that nagging fear in the back of your mind. Every flavor bursts with real ingredients—think fresh fruit, pure nut butters, creamy dairy—and they're transparent about every single thing that goes in their creations. Honestly, walking in and knowing you're safe (and spoiled for choice!) is such a rare treat it almost brings a tear to your eye—especially if you haven't had a waffle cone in years.
