University Heights, Ohio City
I love Boaz for the wonderful delicious gluten free bowls.
From their website:
Whether you’re an herbivore, carnivore, omnivore, gluten-free, or vegan, you can create the bowl of your dreams at Boaz. With our fresh ingredients, your next meal will be one you won’t soon forget.
They label items gluten free on their menu.
I get the Build Your Own Bowl and really love the pickled veggies, garlic sauce and seasoned chicken. So much flavor!

“We have a large following of patrons with celiac disease due to the menu offerings that are GI friendly.
We also are the resident caterer for all of the musicians at Jacobs Pavilion. Many require us to be gluten free.

With a commitment to healthy dishes, artisanal beverages, locally roasted coffee, locally sourced teas, locally baked breads and pastries, local procured dairy and produce sourced locally whenever possible!
Stopped at the Cafe today to grab a smoothie, many on the menu to pick from, along with a ‘create your own’. Requested banana, pineapple, coconut yogurt and orange juice. Super creamy and tasty! Also tried the Protein Power Bowl. Seasoned rice base with kale, tomato, feta and chopped chicken (tempeh option offered). Everything was wonderfully fresh, beautifully presented and super tasty!
The shop carries dry goods, supplements, produce, bottled beverages and much more. Check it out! If your friends choose another dining option from one of the other local vendors you can take your order to go and all share a table at the Market Hall. Across the street – Mitchell’s Ice Cream – what could possibly be better?
Pinecrest, several Columbus locations
Kitchen Social has recently opened at Pinecrest. They also have several locations in the Columbus area.
I enjoyed dinner here on a recent weeknight. Reservations were definitely needed as the place was hopping, including the packed bar.
There is a gluten free menu with a number of options. The knowledgeable server assured that the kitchen takes appropriate precautions with allergen designated orders. My entree was announced as gluten free when it was served to me.
I would order the Grilled Salmon salad again. The greens were very fresh and the roasted sweet potatoes, quinoa, and almonds were a great combination of tastes. I just wish the fish had been served less well done.
Two companions tried the Tuna Bowl. One ordered off the regular menu and it was served with farro. The gluten free one had only rice. Otherwise, they looked the same. And both diners reporting liking the dishes.
