Frederick's Bistro

Frederick's Bistro is a nice French restaurant near Shavano Park.  They have a number of items on their menu that are naturally gluten free.  The server also informed me that they could also modify some of their dishes to make them GF, e.g. not breading something.  I had a delightful fish entree, but they also had duck, beef, and lobster options on the menu that were GF.  The best part is that that have an extensive dessert menu with GF options.  I got to pick from souffles, chocolate terrine, creme brulee, sorbet, ice cream, and chocolate mousse.  I chose the souffle, but I have also had the terrine in the past.  Both desserts were delightful.  It's so refreshing to have multiple GF dessert options when dining out.  I highly recommend Frederick's for GF fine dining needs.

Fralo's Art of Pizza

Fralo's is a local gourmet pizza restaurant that offers a GF pizza.  The GF pizza crust is thin, unlike their normal crust, but it does serve as a great base for their delicious pizzas.  The GF pizza is also significantly smaller than the regular pizza, serving only 1-2 people.  The price is high for a regular pizza, but their interesting topping combinations make the gourmet pizza worthwhile.  They also offer live music, outdoor dining, and a wine list.  I did not take a picture of the pizza, but their menu detailing some of their interesting toppings is available online.

They are located near Leon Springs.
