Big Mike’s a golden find!! I was elated to land on such a hit! It’s completely safe for celiacs and the kind of deliciousness that makes one swoon! Big Mike himself is gracious, sweet, and friendly. It is clearly evident he loves what he does and cares about reassuring celiacs like me that everything is safe as they’re a 100% dedicated GF restaurant. He also has celiac himself so he understands all too well how incredibly precious this is. The people are lovely there and willing to help with any culinary questions! Our meal was so good and we look forward to returning next time we are in Fla! Everything is worth trying!! Put this place high on your list for Breakfast & Lunch!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We ate here on 2/8/2026, and I can’t say enough good things about Big Mike’s Gluten Free. This place is absolutely outstanding. The food was incredible. The waffles topped with fresh fruit were light, crispy, and packed with flavor. The pancakes were fluffy, perfectly cooked, and soaked up the syrup just right. And the chocolate donut was unreal. You’d never guess any of this was gluten free. Everything tasted homemade, fresh, and done with real care. What really stands out is that this isn’t “good for gluten free.” It’s just great food, period. If you didn’t know it was gluten free, you’d never question it. Portions were generous, presentation was great, and everything came out hot and fresh. You can tell this place is run by people who truly care about what they’re serving. Whet

Truly good food, and a very friendly staff. They made me feel right at home and Mike the owner came right out to talk to me and wish me a good day. We ended up chatting for about 10 minutes and I realized pretty quickly that Mike is one of those incredibly lucky people who has truly found happiness and what he does. His staff and the food reflect that 100%. It was quite busy so get there early.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Obinna Mbachu · Dec 2025

Excellent customer service at this black owned spot. Super chill laid back like a healthy diner vibe. Loved the fuschia juice before having the omelette, potato and waffle. The waffle did not hit too good for me maybe because it is made without gluten. I enjoyed the omelette and the potatoes were good too.

★★★★★ 5.0 Amy Jones · Feb 2026

Had a delicious breakfast! Love to find a place dedicated to being gluten free! Lots of vegan and dairy free options as well! Love the pure maple syrup! The Big Mike’s hot sauce is yummy on the potatoes, and it’s not hot (I don’t like spicy) - it’s just flavorful! We bought a bottle to take home! They could benefit by talking up their items for sale - like hot sauce, juice, baked goods to take home. Make sure you get your parking ticket for the garage validated by a staff member. It’s nice to meet the owner himself as he was there visiting with customers. Will definitely go back next time we’re in the area!
