In search of a new favorite gluten-free spot?
Hoodline crunched the numbers to find the best affordable gluten-free restaurants around Cincinnati, using both Yelp data and our own secret sauce to produce a ranked list of where to fill the bill.
1. Fusian
Topping the list is an outpost of the Ohio chain FUSIAN. Located at 600 Vine St. in the Central Business District, the sushi bar and vegan spot is the highest-rated low-priced gluten-free restaurant in Cincinnati, boasting four stars out of 232 reviews on Yelp. Choose to build your own sushi roll, or opt for one of the spot's signature offerings, like the spicy salmon with carrot, cream cheese, scallion and spicy mayonnaise.
Yelper Tyler M., who reviewed FUSIAN on Oct. 11, wrote, "I love the soy wrap. There's a small upcharge, but it's totally worth it. I also love trying new sauces. They'll always put them on the side for you to ask. The sweet chili sauce is one of my favorites."
And Meagan M. noted, "I tried the spicy salmon roll and it was delicious. I'll definitely come back."
2. Whole Bowl
Next up is Clifton's Whole Bowl, situated at 364 Ludlow Ave. It's a location of the well-known chain. With 4.5 stars out of 70 reviews on Yelp, the vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free spot has proven to be a local favorite for those looking for an affordable option. The spot's traditional gluten-free bowls come with black and red beans, avocado, cilantro, black olives, Tillamook cheddar, sour cream, salsa and Tali Sauce. Add a chia latte or a vegan hot chocolate to your order.
3. Cherbourg Cyprus
Finally, Over-The-Rhine's Cherbourg Cyprus, located at 1804 Race St., is another top choice, with Yelpers giving the affordable bakery and gluten-free spot 4.5 stars out of 56 reviews. Look for doughnuts, brownies, scones, cookies, cupcakes and more at this gluten- and nut-free bakery.
Yelper Sarah E. noted, "Pretty good selection even at the end of the day, though we were misled by the appearance of the doughnuts. They are actually very dense cake doughnuts but still tasted good. The lemon cookies were also a hit at our table."
And Terri B. wrote, "I chose the s'mores bar and the lemon bar. I finally got to eat the s'mores bar that evening and it was divine. I had the lemon bar tonight and the crust on it was so buttery. So good. I highly recommend stopping in for a treat!"
