CoreLife Eatery

I was so excited to find this place, but now so disappointed after having a pretty severe reaction. I had the Korean bowl. I was told it was all gluten free. Either there is a cross contamination or maybe something in the sauce? Wondering if they use soy sauce? I still plan to call and ask but haven’t had time during their open hours.

I'm really bummed. This place was really special to me because it was the only place I could go to where I knew I could order almost anything (but the tuna due to external cross contact). They recently added naan to the line. I watched someone contaminate the whole line by touching individual tongs to the naan then place them back in the various ingredients. I asked the manager about this and she said "there is nothing I can do about it, everything on this half is contaminated ". That basically leaves maybe the soup as safe? Based on the response I wouldn't feel safe eating anything at this point after observing their technique. The gluten has been placed dead center in the line and the new employees don't seem to understand. When they first opened everyone seemed really informed and considerate. Super disappointed.

The staff was knowledgeable about allergies. Everything at the eatery is gluten free, including their mac and cheese. Many great options for food!

Staff is extremely knowledgeable, the only thing that doesn’t come from a dedicated gluten free facility is the tuna. Tons of delicious, healthy options!

Everything is gluten free except the naan bread (optional side) that is at the end of the line, so it is not touched by anyone and gloves are changed right after.

I've been eating at Core Life for years and have always loved it. That being said, it's becoming harder to safely eat here as they keep incorporating more and more gluten items to their menu. They have also removed their gluten free Mac and cheese from the menu and replaced it with regular gluten containing Mac and cheese! It's a delicious place to eat but proceed with caution for cross-contimation and subtle and not well advertised changes to the menu.
