Bistro La Bon is simply phenomenal, in my opinion. From the moment you open the website and view the menu, you know that, as a gluten sensitive person, this is the place for you! Everything is labeled GF or GFO (gluten-free option available). There are tons of options!!

This will be the fourth time my husband and I have visited. Every time we are impressed! Our server, Amber, was great! I would love to have her serve us again. We were celebrating our 21st anniversary and were treated royally by the restaurant. Every bite was savored and we spent two hours enjoying our meal. Service was timely, food was hot and absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere was very pleasant.

There is outdoor dining but it's right on Central Avenue and loud so we opted to dine indoors. Bistro La Bon is usually in the Queen's Feast lineup so it's a great time to try them out! We cannot wait to go back!

This place is fabulous! I’m also dairy free and the menu was marked GF and if it had an option to be GF. They did a great job accommodating the dairy free as well. We ate the pork belly, lamp chops, and duck. Everything was soooooo gooood! The pork belly is a must, I am going to dream about that. They also have a vegan risotto that isn’t on the menu, but available if you ask. I’m normally not impressed with how vegan risotto turns out, but this was exceptional.

I’ve dined here several times. Menu has many GF options. Waitstaff was knowledgeable, service was great, and they have an excellent wine list. Haven’t gotten sick after eating here!

Oh my god this place is SO GOOD! Very heavy on the dairy as one might expect from a French restaurant, but it was my weekly dairy splurge and well worth it. Had the charcuterie plate, Brussels Sprouts with a delicious mystery sauce, an amazing pear cocktail, the paella was to die for (better than what I had in Spain to be honest) and we split the caramel flan (INSANE) and the chocolate flourless cake (came with cherries and gelato and mousse). Wow wow wow. No gluten issues whatsoever and the staff was great.

Went with a group of 5, two of us being GF. The menu had gf next to all our options, and Gfo if they could be made gluten free. However the portion sizes were tiny. I understand they're 'small' plates, but we racked up quite the bill before we were all full. The food was absolutely amazing though, everything tasted so fresh and delicious. Glad we tried it.

Excellent French and Mediterranean cuisine. I was very excited to discover that I could still eat my favorite dish after my diagnosis. No GF menu, but lots of choices and a very knowledgable staff.
