Staff are reported to be knowledgeable and friendly.
Harlow is a vegetarian restaurant. No meat or fish is used in any dish. The kitchen is dedicated vegetarian, making it a safe choice for vegetarians. Eggs and dairy are present, though dairy-free options dominate. No animal flesh is served.
Blossoming Lotus is fully vegan; the venue's Wikipedia entry and OregonLive closure notice describe it as a long-standing vegan restaurant. Because every dish is plant-based, there is zero risk of non-vegan ingredients in the kitchen.
stockA dedicated gluten-free facility, the bakery uses no gluten-containing ingredients on the premises, has its own dedicated kitchen, and trains staff on cross-contamination. The venue's own website calls it a 'dedicated gluten free facility' to eliminate cross-contact risk. Multiple coeliac bloggers and HappyCow reviewers report positive experiences with no reactions. This is effectively a 100% gluten-free kitchen.
Mirisata is a fully vegan Sri Lankan restaurant. Every dish on the menu is plant-based. The Eater Portland guide and the venue's own site both describe it as completely vegan, meaning there is zero risk of animal ingredients in any dish. A separate vegan menu is not needed because the entire kitchen operates plant-forward by design.
100% vegan kitchen; no animal products on premises. The entire menu is plant-based, so cross-contamination with animal-derived ingredients is structurally impossible.
The entire menu is 100% plant-based, making it a dedicated vegan kitchen. No animal products are used, so it is safe for vegans.
DC Vegetarian's own ordering site states: '100% VEGAN, despite the words on the menu, we do not serve meat / cheese / eggs / dairy'. Every dish is vegan, which is structurally enforced by the kitchen's policy and verified by multiple sources including Wikipedia and a blog roundup.
Dirty Lettuce is a 100% plant-based restaurant, meaning the entire kitchen is vegan. No animal products are used, so it is inherently safe for vegans with no cross-contamination risk from non-vegan ingredients.
stockThe cafe is fully vegan, which automatically makes it fully vegetarian. Since no animal products (meat, fish, dairy, eggs) are used in the kitchen, it is structurally impossible for the kitchen to serve non-vegetarian items. This places it in the highest tier for vegetarian: a 100% dedicated kitchen by nature of the cuisine.
The venue markets itself as a vegan restaurant serving bowls, smoothies, salads, and more, and the food blog roundup explicitly calls it 100% vegan. The online menu lists vegan cheeses (Violife), tofu scrambles, plant-based proteins, and no animal-derived ingredients visible on any dish. This qualifies as a strongly trusted venue for vegan diners: the owner runs a plant-first kitchen and the brand identity is built around vegan food. Cross-contamination from animal products is not a realistic concern because those ingredients simply aren't on site. No formal Vegan Society Trademark accreditation was found, so Tier A rather than A+.
The venue is fully vegan; the Wikipedia article, HappyCow listing, and the venue's own website all confirm it serves only vegan Japanese comfort food. No animal products are used in the kitchen.
This venue bills itself as 'entirely gluten-free' and its official ordering menu marks nearly every dish as gluten-free. The website states the kitchen is 'free from gluten' and dedicated to clean, wholesome dining. However, no independent accreditation, third-party audit, or detail about cross-contact mitigations (e.g., dedicated fryers, separate prep surfaces) is available from the sources. For a coeliac diner, the strong positive signal from a 100% gluten-free kitchen claim and marked menu is tempered by the lack of verified cross-contact protocols. Recommended; call ahead to confirm dedicated kitchen practices.
Reported as a dedicated gluten-free kitchen by multiple community reviews, with a dedicated fryer and staff who clean surfaces and change gloves. A self-identified employee states Ground Breaker Brewing (where the food truck is located) has a strict no-gluten-in-the-building policy. However, conflicting reviews note that non-GF items are available (likely from the brewery), and two diners reported reactions. Menu items are labelled GF on the online ordering page. Call ahead to verify current practices.
ASTERA's menu is described as entirely vegan, consistent across its own website, a Portland Dining Month listing, and a press review. The kitchen prepares no animal products by design, making this the core of the concept. No certification, such as the Vegan Society Trademark, is mentioned, and no information about shared equipment or cross-contact from non-vegan ingredients, such as honey, is available, so the tier is A rather than A+.
A fully vegan restaurant. The entire menu is plant-based, and the venue describes itself as a vegan restaurant. The kitchen uses soy-based vegan meats. No cross-contamination risk from animal products exists.
Tier A (Strongly trusted, but unverified): an accreditation by a recognised gluten-free / coeliac-safety body was claimed, but we could not verify the claim against the body's own published list. The body's directory page does not name this venue, and we have no other third-party evidence to corroborate the certification. Other signals on record: dedicated kitchen claimed. Treat as gluten-free / coeliac-aware rather than gluten-free / coeliac-certified until the venue can produce verifiable accreditation.
According to the official menu, all items are gluten-free, and multiple reviews describe a dedicated gluten-free kitchen. Staff are reported to be knowledgeable about allergies. One contradictory review exists, but the preponderance of evidence points to a safe environment for coeliac diners.
The venue's website explicitly states that the ice cream is 100% vegan and gluten-free. The ice cream is described as plant-based. VegNews named the shop the best vegan ice cream shop in America for 2024 and 2025. All flavours are vegan by default, and no animal products are used anywhere in the shop.
The entire menu is 100% vegan, confirmed by the venue's own menu pages. No animal products are used. This is a structural commitment of the kitchen: every dish is plant-based, so cross-contamination with non-vegan ingredients is not a concern.
Harlow is widely reported as a dedicated gluten-free restaurant, with most menu items marked GF on the official menu. Some reviews note that the kitchen may not be fully dedicated and that ingredients are not certified gluten-free, so highly sensitive coeliacs should confirm with staff.
Bastion PDX operates a 100% gluten-free, dedicated kitchen, the venue's website, menu banner, and multiple community reviewers all confirm no gluten is used on premises. The owner is a nutritionist, and staff are reported to be knowledgeable about allergies. Oats are on the menu but clearly marked. No formal accreditation (e.g. Coeliac UK, GFCO) was found, but the structural evidence is strong.
Black Water is 100% vegan, covering every dish and drink. The kitchen avoids animal ingredients by design, which eliminates any risk of animal-derived cross-contamination. The bar’s own website states that Black Water is 100% vegan. No external vegan accreditation is cited, but the venue’s unambiguous commitment, corroboration from HappyCow, and consistent review mentions place it at a strong trusted level. There is no dedicated allergen kitchen beyond the vegan baseline, so diners with other requirements such as gluten, soy, or nuts should still check the menu’s ‘may contain’ footer.
