The whole place is gf and also caters to other diets like anti-inflammatory and dairy-free. Everything is delicious, especially the chicken sandwhich. It felt like a non-gf meal which was exciting for me. I love how clean the ingredients are here.

2023 Update: Food is still tasty & expensive, but also still safe (most importantly)!

Original 2019 Review: I have been here multiple times with no issues. Food is expensive, so I can't eat here as much as I'd like. But it's always great to support restaurants with dedicated GF kitchens!

Amazing variety and seriously good food! Picnik is one of those restaurants that feels very trendy and offers a good dining experience, and just happens to be totally gluten free (aka the gluten eaters won’t really notice). They were also very accommodating of other allergies. I love both the south Lamar and burnet locations.

I love this place. I had a chicken fried chicken with gravy and potatoes and asparagus that was delicious. 2nd visit was brunch and i had cinnamon roll french toast, bacon, and potatoes. The potatoes are some of the best i have ever eaten, baked, smashed, then fried i think!

I walked in and was told “we don’t allow gluten in the building.” My heart was ALIVE with this menu! I was almost overwhelmed by the number of options and not having to incessantly make sure the waiter knew to avoid cross contamination. I had the crispy fish tacos and they were amazing.

10/10 for others with celiac đź’›

Piknik was so refreshing as a celiac! I could order anything that I wanted. I even bonded with the server who was also a celiac. I ordered the avocado toast for brunch which tasted great. I will say the portions are very small and the prices are high so this wouldn't be an everyday place, and make sure to get enough food to fill you up! We shared the chips and queso as a table which were actually dairy free as well! My friends are not gluten free but they really enjoyed what they ordered. I do recommend, just be ready to spend $$ for a little portion!!

Had the gf brussel sprouts along with a juice and a shot. If you’re looking for healthy, this is the spot. *had pick up only with a limited menu*

Just returned and dined on the patio. It was so awesome. Had the Chicken Fried Chicken, which was amazing. My husband had the breakfast tacos, he’s not Celiac and thought they were good. I’d definitely recommend!

This restaurant is amazing!!! It was so good I went here several times within my short trip. Everything is gluten free and the staff is super friendly. I highly recommend the salted caramel banana pancakes, the everything bagel toast, the french toast, and the chicken tenders. I personally was not a big fan of the avocado toast. Definitely make sure to come here if you can.

Tried this place out based on reviews. I have Celiac along with dairy and fish allergies. Conferred with waiter and ordered chicken without the brushing sauce and a modification of a sweet potato/veggie combo to replace mashed potatoes that have dairy. Hour later ended up really sick. Not sure exactly what it was that got me. Suspicious it may have been a gluten reaction since usually my reaction to dairy is more delayed. Will never know for sure tho.

One of the best gf df restaurants I’ve ever been to. I often debate making a return trip to Austin just to come back here. When speaking with the bartender he told me they do not even allow guests to bring outside food in even to their take out area so there is absolutely no cross contamination. Great wine list as well. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

YES. 100% dedicated gluten free facility. (also soy free) I had an AMAZING meal. I got the chicken thighs with mashed potatoes and asparagus, and an ice cream sandwich for dessert. It was so nice to be able to sit down and order whatever I wanted off of the menu. The wait staff was very nice. They were alittle busy so I would say go early. I will say that if you order the mac & cheese, it's a very small portion. it is not "sharable" as the menu suggests.
