Feeling particularly hungry and scrolling through my DoorDash app in search of something that would tantalize my taste buds beyond the usual options of gluten-free pizza or burgers, I stumbled upon a restaurant with a bold and captivating name: "F$CK GLUTEN." The audacity of the name piqued my curiosity immediately, and I felt compelled to explore their menu in greater detail. As I delved into their offerings, I was pleasantly surprised to discover a diverse array of gluten-free salads, bowls, and desserts that were sure to make my mouth water. Among the options, I found myself particularly drawn to the gluten-free fried chicken bowl, a dish that promised a delightful experience. This bowl featured crispy ginger garlic fried chicken, which was not only gluten-free but also seemed to boast a unique blend of flavors. It came with your choice of base, allowing for a personalized touch, along with three sides that were thoughtfully curated to enhance the overall meal. The dish was finished off with a sprinkle of green onions, a dusting of sesame seeds, and a refreshing lemon wedge, all served alongside a gluten-free sauce of your choice. The base options were impressive, offering a selection that included jasmine rice, brown rice, cauliflower rice, or sweet potato noodles. Each base provided a different texture and flavor profile, allowing for a customized dining experience. The three sides you could choose from were equally enticing, featuring a range of delicious options such as sesame kale slaw, roasted sweet potatoes, corn salad, roasted broccoli, roasted mushrooms, chili-dusted pineapple, cucumber salad, pickled onions, avocado, jammy egg, and kimchi. Additionally, the restaurant offered the flexibility to add extra proteins, ranging from more fried chicken to sesame tofu, for a nominal fee of about $5 to $8, depending on your selection. You could also opt for additional sides and sauces for a minimal charge, making it easy to tailor your meal to your liking. If sesame seeds or green onions weren't your thing, the option to have them omitted was a thoughtful touch that showcased the restaurant's attention to customer preferences. To round off your meal, the restaurant provided a choice of a gluten-free dark chocolate brownie or a rice crispy treat, both of which came pre-packaged from an external vendor, ensuring a sweet conclusion to your dining experience. After careful consideration, I ultimately decided on the cucumber salad, jasmine rice, roasted broccoli, and pickled onions to complement my fried chicken bowl. The combination of flavors and textures was something I was looking forward to enjoying. The restaurant prepared my order with impressive speed, and as soon as the DoorDash delivery arrived, I could hardly contain my excitement. I eagerly dug into my bowl, and I must say, the chicken was nothing short of delicious. It was packed with flavor and had a delightful crunch, although I did find it to have a bit of a spicy kick that added an extra layer of depth to the dish. The sides were equally impressive; even the usually bland broccoli that tends to be an afterthought in many meals was transformed into a flavor-packed delight that I genuinely enjoyed. So impressed was I with the offerings from this restaurant that just a few days later, I decided to try their gluten-free steak bowl, opting for the same sides that had complemented my previous meal so well. While the steak was undoubtedly tender and bursting with flavor, I found myself a little disappointed by the serving size, especially when considering the price point. It left me wanting more, and I ultimately decided that my future orders would likely lean towards the fried chicken, which had truly won me over with its robust taste and satisfying portion. I have found a new favorite restaurant that caters specifically to those of us who need to follow a medically necessary gluten-free diet, offering tasty dishes at affordable prices. It's a refreshing change after years of settling for bland and unappealing food. I strongly suggest you try them out and say F$ck Gluten! read more

F*ck Gluten - Gluten-Free Near Me - Long Beach, California

This place just cured me of my door dash habit. I've been gf for 27 years and this place is awful. Soggy, scammy (a side order reduces your main order -- eg order a side of chicken, you'll get less cauliflower -- so don't waste your money), and those sweet potato noodles have zero taste. Everything is a soggy mess. Also they charge $1.50 for a sauce and consistently send the wrong one. Skip it. read more

Good lord. I guess they said f*ck seasoning too. The cucumber salad showed up and was LITERALLY only cucumber, no anything else. The corn was LITERALLY corn, not a single speck of sauce was on it. The fries were soggy as I don't know what. The chicken whole not horrible could use some seasoning - anything would work - even a little salt. Having looked forward to it - $100 to be overly disappointing was rough! read more

F*ck Gluten - No seasoning or sauce was provided - Gluten-Free Near Me - Long Beach, California

This chain has a cool menu, but they could fine-tune a few things to improve their food. I ordered the sesame tofu bowl. Here's what I'd change: 1) The tofu arrived barely baked, lukewarm and unseasoned. Put a little spice on it and leave it in the oven a lot longer. 2) The dressing was SUPER watery, just ran right over the lettuce and pooled at the bottom of the dish, and it came in a teeny container. 3) The side of sweet potatoes was cold, like it had been sitting out all afternoon. And 4) the avocado was gray by the time it got here. If you squeeze a little lime juice over them, they stay fresher longer. I like the idea behind this. But I think they could also stand to make some changes here and there. read more

I went to the Barrio in San Diego location. FIRST the name made me curious. SECOND the menu was quite impressive so I thought let's try. I can tell you that it's the best gluten free items from a restaurant in 10 years. I ended up with celiac disease after my chemo therapy. I will be back to try all the items on the menu so then I can come Back to order my favorites. read more

Delicious! Having recently had to go on an anti-inflammatory diet I've been cooking all my meals. Sure enough, I needed a quick and easy choice last weekend and that's how I found F*ck Gluten. I ordered the Korean Beef Bowl, fries, and chicken nuggets. The portions were generous which was great. The delivery was prompt. Moreover, the food was perfectly seasoned with excellent sauces. I'm so happy I have a healthy option for when I need delivery. Thanks F*ck Gluten! read more

6 months ago: A million thanks to my cousins Roberta, Marla and Jack, along with my son Michael who ordered contactless delivery for me from F#CK Gluten (yes that is this establishment's real name) and from local restaurant to help me overcome an illness. Just having these tasty entrees, salads, soups, desserts and as well as finally trying the food from F#CK Gluten is helping me immensely. Love you all. read more

This place is really good!!! I love that it's all gluten free. It was a bit worrisome that a lot of reviews weren't sure if it was closed or not but I went ahead and ordered online and the notification said it was ready. I picked it up at an alleyway to a building that appears to house many different food brands. A lot of people were coming by to pick up food of all different kinds. The important thing is I got to pick up real food and it was real good! It's take out definitely since there doesn't seem to be any place to eat it or even have real human interaction, you just pick up your bag. Really like the cauliflower dishes. Yum! read more

The fries were a little under done and overly seasoned. I was hoping for just good old French fries. If the menu had said seasoned, I probably wouldn't have gotten them. The rice Krispie treat was fine, a bit bland but texture was good. read more

This is not a restaurant. It's in an alley, you need to place an order at a kiosk and then... wait? It was also not "open". Went for brunch hours only for it to say it didn't start taking orders till 2pm. This looked more to serve food delivery services versus a traditional eatery. read more

Amazing gluten free chicken that I cannot find elsewhere in my area!!! Amd it is so delicious with the creamy sesame sauce!!!

This is not a restaurant. It's an "order ahead" food hub for pick up only for many different restaurants There's mostly food delivery folks waiting and watching loud videos on their phones. Very unpleasant to wait for food. I ordered the GF fried cauliflower bowl. It's tasty. Both the chocolate brownie and the rice crispy dessert were prepackaged. Oh, and it didn't come with any napkins or utensils, even though it's to go only. Very inconvenient! read more

This place is delicious! I ordered six of the veggie dishes and it was all amazing. I love that they offer different bases (kale, white/brown/bamboo rice) bamboo and kale were my favorite, but even the brown was very good! Their sauces are vegan friendly and so tasty! A family favorite was the vegan cream sauce cauliflower and impossible beef with kale and avocado. We will be coming back! read more

this was honestly one of the best meals my mother has had in a long time. as someone who struggles with gluten intolerance she might have just found her spot. really cheap and i liked the pickup location read more

Food is pretty solid. Nothing out of this world. But they offer a healthy selection of dinner or lunch eats. I tried the crispy chicken bowl with the veggies. I just wished they gave you more sauce. Not a ton of flavor but still very good portions and not greasy. Definitely check this place out. read more

$50.00 for two bowls. I ordered this with extra chicken smallest portion I have ever seen. The food arrived cold has no flavor. read more

The most amazing gluten free orange chicken I have ever had! I honestly order it every time it's payday and get it delivered to my job. The biggest highlight of my day! I randomly came across their page when scrolling through gluten free options in Long Beach on the Postmates app. Everything on the menu is gluten free. EVERYTHING! I mean where else are you going to find that?! Pretty much nowhere. I highly recommend to anyone with a gluten free preference but I would double check with the restaurant if it's for a gluten allergy/sensitivity. read more

I got the GF Fries and they were delicious! That season was great dipped into the sesame sauce was perfect!

Food was good, serving is small considering you're paying for a lot of veggies, a bit of cheese and less than 2 oz of chicken. They got one order out of two right. Ordered the basil salad with the addition of avocado, goat cheese, chicken, sliced almonds and cucumbers. Got everything but cucumbers and chicken. Paid 17.75. Ended up with a fistful of spinach, a small dollop of Pesto, sprinkling of hearts of palm leaves, a bit of goat cheese. Not a good choice if you're hungry. No number to call. So too bad for you if the f$ck the order along with the carbs. read more
