They are all 100% gluten-free and are extremely transparent about all of the other allergens in their kitchen. Very vegan-friendly as well! 11/10!

Vegan and gluten-free options are only halfway worked out -- available but not delicious. It turns out I had been served a meal that was not gluten-free at a prior visit. The server's timing delayed our meals being served together. The host didn't have the character to accept responsibility when he inquired as to how things worked out. I will definitely think twice before dining here again.

Amada has the best brunch in all of Philly! They have the friendliest staff who are very knowledgeable about allergy-friendly items on the menu. Their refreshing and flavorful $5 sangria at brunch is an absolute steal and worth the visit alone! Some of my favorite items (which are gluten free) include the gambas (garlic shrimp), meat and cheese with lavender honey, Amanda’s breakfast hash and their French fries. Their dinner is as delicious as the brunch but significantly more expensive.

During our recent visit to Pennsylvania, my partner and I had the pleasure of dining at a fantastic spot that truly exceeded expectations. For a very reasonable price of $59, we enjoyed a delicious spread, including tacos with a side of chili, two burgers with fries, tea, and two waters. One of the standout features was that everything on the menu could be made gluten-free, which was a huge plus for us. The buns on the burgers were especially delicious—crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The atmosphere was just right—not too loud or crowded—creating a relaxed and welcoming vibe. The service was top-notch as well. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout the meal. A nice touch is the digital payment option on the receipt, where you can easily pay and leave a tip with a code. Overall, the experience was fantastic, and we are definitely looking forward to coming back the next time we’re in the area. If you’re in PA and craving some great food in a comfortable setting, this place is highly recommended! Thank you for such a wonderful experience!
