June 20th was my 24th wedding anniversary and to celebrate we wanted to try a new restaurant to us. Shauna the gluten-free girl, was recently in Washington, DC for the Eat, Write, Retreat conference and raved about her meal at Bibiana. When a fellow foodie who also is very sensitive to gluten has a good experience somewhere, [...]
Red Velvet Cupcakery Adds Gluten-Free Vanilla
Last October I was walking through the Reston Town Center and there was a huge line of people coming out the door of a new little shop. It was the Red Velvet Cupcakery and they were giving away free cupcakes. I of course was skeptical that I would get one but sure enough they had [...]
The Slanted Door Gluten Free Restaurant Review
This post originally ran in 2009 and I have since been back for another great meal. I will have to say it was a little more difficult with four people at the table, each with their own dietary needs. But I had a great meal and the view is amazing. The Slanted Door is a [...]
Farallon Gluten Free Restaurant Review
This originally ran in October of 2009. I have been back to this restaurant again on my trip to San Francisco last year and it was still just as wonderful. My husband and I had an amazing dinner and I had a wonderful dessert that was not just sorbet. Still a great place to eat. [...]
Mon Ami Gabi Restaurant – Gluten Free Review
This review originally ran in October 2009. I’ve since been back many times. They have a complete gluten free menu but when it comes to gluten and dairy free your options a little less. I often find this a hit or miss place lately. When it’s a hit I really enjoy it. The other night [...]
Tropisueño Gluten Free Restaurant Review
Originally ran in October 2009 but I’ve been back since and let me tell you it’s just as amazing as ever. I could live at this restaurant except I don’t live in California. Tropisueño is a taqueria by day and a full service restaurant at night that serves traditional Mexican food. My quest as always, [...]
Jaleo DC Gluten Free Restaurant Review
Below is the original review when I made my trip into Jaleo in DC. I have since returned last weekend as we celebrated my son’s graduation from college. We had a wonderful tapas meal for 10, all gluten and dairy free and a lot of vegetarian treats for my son who is also vegetarian. The [...]
Poste Gluten Free Restaurant Review
Originally ran this in 2009. I’ve been back since and the food is just as wonderful however the great waiter is no longer there. I can’t believe Poste, an upscale moderne brasserie, is ranked # 27 out of the top 100 restaurants in Washington, DC through the Washingtonian Magazine. I would put this in the [...]

Mon Ami Gabi Restaurant Review by the Gluten Free Food Critic
Last night Scott took me out to a new restaurant for us, Mon Ami Gabi. My good friend Antoinette has mentioned it many times. As the sign says, it’s a classic french bistro. Could I get a gluten free and dairy free meal there? How did it taste and what was the service like? Well [...]
