I have celiac and couldn't have felt safer eating here. Our waitress Ariel, was very knowledgeable about celiac and other allergies as well. She was an awesome waitress and we will ask for her next time we go. The manager Josh was very knowledgeable as well and came to our table to go over the menu and what to stay away from that had gluten. Great breakfast place!!

Several times can be made gluten free if you talk to a manager. Stress your intolerance and they will get it right.

They called themselves a gluten friendly restaurant. I ordered an omelet, but they said I could have almost anything except their fresh bread. I'll get the breakfast tacos next time with the corn tortilla!

Probably a lot of cross contact here, but they do have gluten free bread so I was able to get a breakfast sandwich and home fries. The food was flavorful, the staff were efficient and the prices were fair.

We had a lovely lunch this afternoon. Deborah was absolutely wonderful and extremely accommodating to my various allergies. She went above and beyond to make sure my food was safe. They have good procedures against cross contamination. It was also delicious and very affordable.

I usually get the chicken quinoa power bowl here. I have not gotten sick and I always tell the server that I have a gluten allergy. I have heard that they do use shared equipment when toasting the gluten free bread so if you’re sensitive I’d stick with the bowls.
