Seemingly Overzealous is a rare treat for celiacs—every ice cream, sammie, and house-made waffle cone is crafted without gluten, dairy, or eggs, so you can actually relax and savor dessert. While it's not officially a dedicated gluten-free facility, their bold claims of always being 100% gluten-free (and the detailed, transparent ingredient lists) go a long way in building trust. The staff really 'get it,' too; they're happy to walk you through options and answer the nitty-gritty questions only a celiac would ask. Honestly, for those of us who've gone years without an ice cream tasting flight or a real-deal cone, this spot feels like the kind of place where you can finally let your guard down—just a bit.
