We have 2 people with Celiac disease. We had a great brunch at Boca. There was a moderate gluten free selection for brunch and our server Tom was super familiar with Celiac disease and cross contamination. We would definitely return!

I have a gluten and dairy allergy and I was able to have the vegetable and seafood paellas with no problem; both delicious. They also provided me with gluten free bread. Waiter was very accommodating. Menu is clearly marked with gluten free options.

Best celiac option in town from my perspective. They are knowledgeable about celiac (although I did underline all the usual concerns for places with shared kitchen). GF items are marked on the menu. I had a Bistro Steak (steak, zucchini and potatoes). They also adapted their burger to make it gluten free (using a GF sandwich bread, they do not have GF buns). I did not feel sick after eating there. Food was also tasty.

Excellent meal. It’s very clear what is gluten-free and what is not. Staff are knowledgeable. Ate many tapas and paella. Also, have gluten-free bread, excellent. All in all an outstanding meal, I will definitely go back.

Server was really nice and came back with a list of stuff thats GF - no dedicated fryer and nothing fried is in the question. But I had the garlic butter shrimp and stuffed peppers and it was so good and surprisingly filling. All meat and cheese is GF. Also they have GF bread which is just toasted frozen white bread but it was still really nice of them to provide!!! I wish they could have a GF fryer one day cause the fried artichokes and calamari my friends got looked soooo good. Also get the pineapple passion fruit mule if you can!!!

I’ve been here a few times. Always a good experience. Usually just get multiple tapas. Menu is marked with gluten free items. Very good food. Probably the place I’m most comfortable eating in Saratoga.

They offered gf bread and olives before lunch. I had deviled eggs and a burger on lettuce (could have been served on gf bread too). Gf items are clearly marked. Service was excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Excellent steak and the cheese plate and was olives were fantastic! Server was friendly and knowledgeable about Celiac. No dedicated kitchen but they are very careful to avoid cross-contamination she said. I'm highly sensitive Celiac and ate there with no issues!

Staff was very knowledgeable about their gluten free offerings and menu items are clearly labeled GF. Delicious food and drink in a great atmosphere- my husband (non celiac) and I (celiac) shared the seafood/chicken/chorizo paella for our entree- was AMAZING. Very glad we found this gem and highly recommend! (Paella & Sangria pics below)

Gluten free choices noted on menu, many items could be made gluten free. Server was very knowledgeable and said they are well trained to take all food allergies seriously. The small plates and salads that we ordered were amazing.
