We are planning a short trip to San Fran and we have a young son with severe food allergies to dairy, eggs, peanuts and tree nuts. Does anyone have any recommendations of allergy friendly restaurants or bakeries?

Thanks in advance.

Suggest you TYPE (for legibility) your allergies on slips of paper and bring them with you to restaurants. How can there be a restaurant that caters to people with allergies when there are literally infinite allergies? SF restaurants are generally accommodating if they know what you want. .

Yep, they take those things seriously and will be very accomodating if you make your needs known.

There are so many people here on special diets whether due to allergies or simply lifestyle. Make sure you are specific about what he cannot eat and simply call ahead.

Well the Arizmendi bakery does gluten free baked goods. Not sure about dairy free though. Gracias Madre is a vegan restaurant so that's an option. Anything Vietnamese or Thai would be good. I like Sunflower on Valencia and King of Thai Noodles. Chow is very accommodating so is Ike's sandwich place.

Thai and Vietnamese use lots of peanuts as sauces or garnishes, and peanuts for frying. Bad fit.
