The Sansglu take

The place

Storefront Creole fusion spot running 100% gluten-free, with its own dedicated kitchen and fryer. Everything is made from scratch in-house.

The gluten-free setup

Fully gluten-free operation end to end. Dedicated fryer, separate kitchen, scratch-made menu across the board. No shared equipment or cross-contact with wheat flour anywhere on premises.

What to order

Start with the fried green tomatoes or shrimp, then go for the gumbo, catfish, or whatever Creole special is running that night. CheSa's is the rare Chicago dedicated gluten-free restaurant that still feels like a full dinner out.

The move

This is a 100% gluten-free kitchen, not a shared-kitchen workaround, which is why it leads the list. It is also a real bar and bistro, so check hours and reservations before you head to Avondale.
