Where can I get gluten-free food in Hawaii?
It’s a question that’s becoming more and more common nowadays – not only in Hawaii but all over the globe. I was inspired to write a post about gluten-free eateries after talking with a family member on Kauai, who has been gluten-free for several years now.
ZPizza on Oahu serves gluten-free pies.
She mentioned that when first choosing this way of eating, there were barely any restaurants on the island that offered gluten-free dishes. Now, there are quite a few, which is always a welcomed treat for her and her husband (also gluten-free) when they’re too tired to cook.
Here are some places on Kauai and Oahu that have gluten-free menu options:

We just got back from our Hawaii trip. One of the main reasons we chose you guys to plan our trip is because of my celiac disease. Paul made sure that every tour guide was made aware of my issue and even scoped out restaurants near our hotel for me. I also wanted to mention that the restaurant, Duke’s, has a gluten free menu for lunch time. With a knowledgeable waitress, dinner can be gluten-free, too.
I can’t say enough thanks for the personal attention! Going with a local travel company is definitely the way to go if you have gluten-free needs.
