Gluten Free Friendly Places with Outdoor Seating in Chicago - 2021
"Rooftop restaurants Chicago, Gibsons Italia | Photocredit: www.gibsonsitalia.com/. Located by the waterfront in West Loop, Gibsons Italia is one of several smaller siblings to the iconic Gibsons Bar & Steakhouse, which has been one of Chicago’s leading restaurants since 1989. Bright, modern and quite swanky in decoration, Gibsons Italia is set over three levels, with both an outdoor terrace and a rooftop with retractable roof."
"Take in panoramic views of the Chicago River and the city’s famed architecture from Gibson’s Italia’s multiple outdoor options, located right on the city’s famed Loop. Steak and Italian food come together here for an extensive menu full of pasta, many meats, seafood, and sides. Warmer weather pairs perfectly with the restaurant’s spritz selection, which includes a classic negroni and a non-alcoholic melon option."
"Steaks , Italian"
"A chic, brick-accented spot inspired by red-sauce joints of the 1950s The B. Hospitality guys (The Bristol, Balena, and Nonna's) opened the doors to their sprawling Randolph Street restaurant back in 2015 and have been serving up well-executed takes on mid-century, southern Italian cuisine ever since -- even with a menu overhaul leaning toward lighter, seafood- and veggie-focused fare a year later. The dining room's old-school vibe -- complete with crimson banquette seating, white tablecloths, and black-and-white photos -- invites diners to try pasta dishes inspired by the classics like rigatoni, in which the ricotta-topped pasta covered in a pork neck gravy is accompanied by spicy fennel sausage and fluffy meatballs."
"Opened in January 2015, Formento’s is among the best Italian restaurants in Chicago. It serves an array of dishes with flavors deeply rooted in classic Italian recipes with a modern twist. The interior has a classic feel to it, with large leather booths and white tablecloths."
"Located in Fulton Market District in the city’s West Loop, Formento’s is an Italian restaurant steeped in the fresh flavors of regional cuisine. The owner wanted to stick to grandm..."
"Most famous for its mouthwatering red sauce, La Scarola serves up Italian food in the traditional style. This small restaurant has walls sporting photographs of celebrities, and it provides a welcoming and intimate environment for dining. The portions are large, so families and groups of diners often opt to share a couple of dishes between them."
"The small little hole in the wall restaurant that greets you like they haven’t seen you in months. This comfy dinner place is decorated like a middle-class dining room with framed pictures and paintings on the wall. The food comes out with smiles on the servers faces as they want nothing but for you and your family to enjoy your meal."

"A photo posted by Infatuation Chicago (@infatuation_chi) on Mar 26, 2016 at 3:32pm PDT. This pizza joint is known for their PB&J special: a slice of pizza, can of PBR, and a shot of Jameson, all for $8.50. And no, this isn't one of those weekly specials — you can get this deal all day, every day."
"A conversation about perfect patios in Logan Square isn’t valid until Boiler Room enters the discussion. Pizza by the slice and boozy ice cream cones make for the perfect Sunday (or Monday or Tuesday or Wednesday….) funday."
"The heated, covered patio at this Logan Square restaurant is decorated with string lights and leafy plants for an enchanting effect. When it gets cold, a gas-powered fireplace will keep things toasty."
"Recover from your late night at the adjacent Empty Bottle with Bite Cafe's eclectic brunch menu and bright, naturally lit dining room. You'll be feeling ready to take on the day in no time."
"This Lincoln Park restaurant is frequented for chef BK Park’s omakase menu, a dining experience featuring a generous array of appetizers, nigiri, sashimi, and hand rolls. Start with tastes of Kumamoto oysters with Japanese mignonette or king crab dressed in Kobe butter, and save room — more than 20 courses are offered in total. Those ordering off the menu can do so with signature bites, such as the smoked hamachi (Japanese amberjack sashimi smoked in a glass dome) and the uni shooter (accompanied by orange zest, cucumber, and wasabi tobiko)."
"Many locals think that Juno has the best seafood in all of Chicago. It’s an intimate Japanese restaurant in the heart of Lincoln Park with an elegant setting. Diners here can expec..."
"This is one of those restaurants that assures you of its authenticity with its loyal following of transplants from Asia, who regularly show up for a taste of home. Though small, the dining room is lined in wood and is constantly filled with sushi fans that say this is the best maki and nigiri in town. You can also get your fish cooked, if you prefer."
"Bua Hana is a contemporary and casual Forest Park eatery serving Japanese and Thai creations, including some top-notch sushi. Diners can mix and match from what's essentially three..."
"(Primary Neighborhoods: Various events and locations, city and suburbs). The family-run food truck Aztec Dave’s has been serving mobile Mexican food in Chicago since 2015. The focus is on the family’s grandmother’s recipes but with a modern spin."
