Kara Lynn's Kitchen "The Market"

Just so everyone is aware, this is no longer a sitdown restaurant, you order food for takeout, apparently the restaurant was at an old location… while the food was good, it did seem overpriced…I ordered a chicken, bacon and avocado sandwich, and it came deconstructed, and the avocado was simply a small container of spread you would get at the grocery store… there are much better options in the area…

Entirely Gluten Free & Delicious! Had a Caesar salad & chicken, bacon club sandwich. Everything was super fresh. There was a big chicken breast In sandwich but the bun was much smaller so it was difficult & messy to eat. Slicing the chicken would have helped.

Big variety of seltzers & hot or cold teas.

Went on a Saturday, expecting to get a hot entree but the hot bar was closed. Most likely because it was January & very quiet in downtown Clearwater due to chilly weather? It’s entirely take out. There is a table outside to eat.

Ordered 10 meals in advance of our vacation to Tampa. Kara Lynn went above and beyond to ensure our meals were perfect and ready for us when we arrived. Family member is celiac, easy to have safe and delicious meals for them. Highly recommend!!!!

Very excited to take my daughter there to try it. She is celiac diagnosed for 15months. She got a chicken sandwich with bacon and lettuce. Symptoms within minutes to where she could not even finish eating the sandwich. I know they claim to be fully GF but there had to be some cross contamination somewhere during the food preparation.

I was excited to go to this restaurant because it was a dedicated GF kitchen which is hard to find as a celiac. I was disappointed when the staff was unable to answer basic ingredient questions as I have other food intolerances. Sweet Potatoes we’re excellent however the burger was over seasoned and tasted more like meatloaf.

Very delicious burger, I wasn't sure at first as the bun doesn't look very appetising but it was really good. Not the best service I've received since being here but knowing somewhere is fully gf slightly makes up for that. Make sure you order in advance as everything is made fresh and if you're driving you only get 30 minutes free. The chicken meatballs were incredible, would highly recommend.

Love this restaurant. To be able to go in and everything be gf and easily have a lot of options also being df was a treasure. I love that they are paleo, the food was great and the atmosphere was such fun. I even got dessert, which is also rare. I hope to visit again on another vacation.

Someone recommended this cute little place and today was my first visit. Love,love,love! I had chicken piccata meatballs with sweet potato noodles and it was delicious! My fiancé, who isn’t celiac loved his meal as well. Server extremely knowledgeable and everything is gluten free. Lots of dairy free and soy free options. The half hour travel time is totally worth it!

We ordered through GrubHub and our food was delivered quickly and it was still warm after 40 minutes. My daughter and I have celiac disease and we felt very comfortable eating here, especially after reading the story behind the brand. My husband and daughter ordered burgers on their housemade, gluten free buns with mushrooms, bacon, cheese and grilled onions. My daughter gobbled it up, my husband left the bun. I ordered the house made salmon burger on a lettuce "wrap" which arrived as one piece of romaine cut in half...so instead I ate it with a fork and was well satiated. The homemade ketchup made the sweet potato wedges the star of the show. We had zero issues!

I picked up food and went to the beach with family. Each dish was ridiculously fresh and good: a cheese burger with grilled onions and mushrooms, chicken club sandwich, quinoa salad with fresh lemon vinaigrette, yum! Unusually good! And knowing it was all GF was great. By the way, the fresh bread that came with each dish was amazing! Can’t say enough about it. Also, you’re going to want to get the brownie muffin! And the owner and staff were so nice and helpful!

DO NOT EAT HERE IF YOU ARE CELIAC. OR IF YOU HAVE A STOMACH. MY HUSBAND AND I ARE SO ILL. I (celiac) ate the chili & the meatloaf. My husband (gf because I am) had the chicken sandwich. The meatloaf & chili taste alright. The chicken sandwich was an absolute horror show. The thing they called a bun looked like a soggy version of an Aldi’s whole wheat English muffin. The chicken was absolutely bone dry, but they tried to make up for it with that bready stuff I think. The waitstaff is rude and judgmental towards patrons (my heel broke while we were seating and the waitress made a snotty comment about my broken heel). Celiac friendly, I doubt: itchy, threw up, bloating… and my hubby isn’t even celiac and he was glued to our porcelain thrown! Also watched a lady carry two loaves of bread in from off the street and legit stock their bread box with it. Wish I had the video tape rolling. Awful. Awful. Awful.

100% GF. Menu is small but everything is absolutely delicious and celiac safe! Bought a loaf of their homemade bread to take home, a bit pricey but worth it!

Love this little place! Everything is gf, and they have great options for other allergies and special diets. They make their own breads/buns, and have lots of yummy desserts to choose from, even keto and paleo options. My husband and I got grass-fed burgers and sweet potato wedges (no the wedges are not like fries, like I thought they would be). We got some dessert bars too. Everything was delicious!

Fantastic place. Good variety of sandwiches, salads, entrees and desserts for lunch on a weekday. I had the chicken club and Caesar side salad with house made GF bread and croutons. My husband had Korean beef and broccoli with cauliflower rice. We shared a chocolate mini cake with ganache filling and a piece of vanilla cake with dairy-free frosting. Everything was delicious and the service was friendly and quick. Wish we lived here so we could go back often. Update: returned for their Saturday brunch and absolutely loved the GF carrot cake pancakes!

Love Kara Lynn’s food! 100% GF, clean food. Entrees include salmon, turkey, hamburgers. Soup, salad, side options. Tea and water options. Amazing desserts. Small, coastal cottage vibe. Highly recommend!

The food and service was great. Desserts are awesome!

Staff was VERY knowledgeable and thoughtful in addressing questions.

Such a great experience to not be worried about what I’m eating while out to eat. Amazing food and awesome staff!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Traveling with Celiac child with rice allergy, thrilled to find somewhere she could be perfectly safe to eat everything!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I have celiac and am allergic to dairy as well and was able to eat almost anything on the menu. My non gf husband kept raving about the bun for his sandwich. So nice to eat a totally gf restaurant and not worry. Plus they had a good array of paleo and keto desserts that tasted delicious. Definitely recommend this place!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Neat place. They have lots of options. Obviously 100% gluten free. Desserts are really good. Didn’t get around to trying the meals there but look forward to it next time.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I really enjoyed this place. Had a great burger with bacon and a dessert. I felt so safe since it was 100% GF. Will definitely be back.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Totally safe place to eat gluten free and not worry. The entire facility is GF. My only thing is not everything on the menu is equally as good so if you are on a budget it sucks to blow your daily food money on subpar items..

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My husbands tacos were good. My meal was sub par. Cupcakes were dense and dry. Frosting was waxy. Nice concept, but not quite there.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Omg! Best place ever! This should the the 1st place that pops up if you are looking for GF restaurant. Its entirely Gf!! It was so great that I could taste my families meal too 😊 they even have dairy free and paleo options. Every from chef,waitstaff to owner are all super knowledgeable. I will come back to the area to get to go here again!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Just went here today for dinner. It was wonderful to not stress about food and cross contamination as my daughter has celiac. The food was delicious! I had the Korean beef lettuce wraps- very filling and flavorful with tender flank steak and cucumber/carrot slaw. Hubby had the blackened salmon with veggies- excellent. One daughter had the chicken on a bed of salad greens with a balsamic type dressing (I think), nothing exciting but she liked it. Other daughter had the chicken veggie soup with sweet potato noodles. Carrot cake, pear cake and a chocolate bon bon thing for dessert. It was just a fabulous dinner with good service! And I don’t agree with the other reviewer about it smelling old and stale, it smelled like delicious food!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Extremely clean options. However the place smells old/stale and they are often out of key menu items early in the day. The desserts use monk fruit and stevia for sweeteners, so they have a bit of an after taste. Aside from that, the food is simple and clean and a good safe option in the area.

Soo amazing!!! WONDERFUL! had meal there then took meal to go for dinner and desserts!

This is hands down the best place to eat in the area. The food is fresh and high quality, the staff is incredibly sweet. I'd eat there weekly if I didn't live 3 hours away. There is zero chance of cross contamination and many of the items are also dairy free.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Fabulous service, and a dedicated GF place that is committed to great quality & healthy food. Accommodating all diets of health conscious people, including paleo, keto, & even vegan. I absolutely loved it here.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Completely allergy friendly and able to accommodate the Autoimmune Protocol. Their salmon is hands down the best salmon I have ever had. Cooked to perfection.

Celiac friendly?
