Delicious. Great service. Dedicated gluten free options

Food is extremely healthy though what you see online is not necessarily what is available in person. At the time we went, there was supposedly something going on with the oven to where staff was having to cook one gluten-free pita at a time and the waitress compared the experience of waiting for our orders to waiting for water to boil. The ingredients for extremely fresh, for sure. Most of the meals, savory. But it was very expensive. My husband ordered his buffalo burger on the rare side (it needs to be undercooked not to overdry) and it came out medium well, very dry and with some grizzle in it, to boot. The waitress apologized and immediately offered to get a new one made. She said the burger would be compted but then clarified that the new burger would be comped (you were seriously going to charge for getting the order right?). Overall, decent healthy food but very expensive.

Nathan and Mekala know exactly how to provide top-notch customer service along with their entire staff and not to mention the food is delicious, with healthy ingredients. I've ordered the vegan poke bowl, which is perfect on a hot summer day. I'm not vegan and ate every last morsel. I've also ordered the Gone Fishin' bowl, which contains a perfectly cooked salmon portion, coconut rice, mixed greens, local mushrooms, herby cucumbers, pickled onions, sautéed corn, sesame ponzu, green onions, and everything seasoning. Whatever you are in the mood for at la finca, you and your palate will not be disappointed. I love that this restaurant sources from local places with their produce and is a 100% gluten-free kitchen. They are vegetarian/vegan friendly, dietary sensitive, and sustainability focused. I will continue to support this local restaurant and hope that you will enjoy it just as much as I do. La finca, thank you for making quality bowls with quality ingredients. *****A bonus is that they sell two stoned Betties hand crafted jewelry at their cash register. I couldn't help myself and bought a gorgeous pair of earrings that were calling my name. The earrings I bought are hypo-allergenic hand painted guitar picks with the New Mexico Zia symbols painted on them along with a roadrunner and heart-shaped zia charm on the ends. Supporting local means so much to me because my husband and I own PT First Physical therapy clinic in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Have a blessed day, y'all!

The best place to eat in Santa fe. Make sure you get in line by 4pm for an in person reservation. Many gluten-free options. Almost all the deserts are gluten-free.

No One

love this place so much! me and my boyfriend come here all the time. The food is flavorful, unique, and not too sweet or heavy! Plenty of gluten free options for me and the staff is so friendly. Waits can sometimes take a bit and parking is a challenge with the shared parking lot but its well worth it

Maria Encarnacion

Justice the bartender was very friendly and attentive. My drinks came out yummy. The appetizers were out fast and hot. I love that there is a gluten free option for the pizza. Our food came out hot and correct. I will definitely be back.

Nettie Atkisson

Thankfully they have a lot of gluten-free options. That being said, I find it waaay too expensive for the quality and quantity of the food. Great staff. Food was good but nothing special. $48 for Conchinita Pibil. It was flavorful but not worth the money. My husband had a salad with figs and they were soggy. The chicken paillard was good , but $47. I get in NYC from an excellent place for $28. Food is fine. Service is great. Cilantro rice is flavorful. We have eaten great food on our trip here in NM in Albuquerque and Taos and paid nothing near this. My son had a$20 Papusa. One single papusa. Nope.

Sam Fletcher

Awesome place. They have gluten-free and vegan/vegetarian options for my wife and normal food for us regular folks 😁. Will definitely be going back for another date night. The staff was awesome and took time to answer all my wife's questions. Super awesome place.

Lois Bradley

Stopped in to try one of their gluten free pizzas and it was fantastic. We have the Taos and the favor was delicious. The crust - gluten-free- was the best I have tried to date. It was crisp with a slightly chewy center. 10 out of 10. And no issues or gluten reaction today. Perfect.

Liv Campbell

It's a great place to hang out, and it used to be one of my favorite places to grab coffee and a treat. I don't mind paying a little more because things cost more. But the quality has really dropped. But there's always french fries or the other pastry options. I hope they continue to create gluten-free options!

Pamela Cowan

The gluten free pancakes are delicious!. They messed up our order and it was delayed by 30 min.. A little misplacing of our order. But I would come back! The place was clean and we beat the Sunday brunch rush! Great place!

Laura Powell

Tj was our waiter and he was super nice and sweet. My daughter said 10/10 for service. We were there for my youngest daughter’s birthday and he was so nice about it! I hope we get him as a waiter next time we come here!! Food and drinks were great, lots of gluten free options.

Joshua Stauffer

Amazing gluten free option! Almost anything fried they can make gluten free. I got a buffalo chicken sandwich and it was amazing.

Chris Nyman Weller

It is with great sadness that I rate flying star only 3 stars. several years ago, restaurant had two or three wonderful options for those of us who cannot eat wheat. (Gluten-free pastries) Since then, they have discontinued one and then the other and then another of their gluten-free products, moved them around, switch them out, and now seem to have only one... which is the gluten-free very berry scone. Somehow, in the process have also made the scone almost inedible (!?!) It used to be a little crumbly, a little dry, but basically very tasty and a good substitute for someone who cannot no longer enjoy the finer things in life that containing the wheat grain. But they've changed the recipe or the cooking method or something. (My suspicion is they've cut back butter (again) and perhaps changed some other ingredients?) but the scone is pretty much almost inedible now - unless I take it home, moisten it up with some mist from my kitchen sprayer, and heat it very gently in the microwave. Which totally misses the point of going to the café in the afternoon for a coffee and pastry. Coffee and pastries used to be one of the greatest joys in my life. Now that my intestines tell me I cannot eat wheat. I relied on some of the wonderful inventions that Flying Star used to have (such as the morning glory muffin. Which was moist and sweet and tasty. And now... gone.) Each time they make a change they seem to cut out one of the things that brings me in... and pretty soon there will be nothing left.

Rolf Asphaug

We loved that the restaurant had so many gluten-free options, and that the staff took such care in cooking and presenting gluten-free foods. We loved the shrimp enchiladas and the tacos.

Tom Beris

Very creative food and cocktail menus. Food was beautiful in presentation and delicious. For those avoiding gluten, nearly everything on the menu was GF.

Fabiola Smith

Really good I have Celiac disease and they have a lot of options

Gary Standke

Very helpful staff to explain what food is gluten free. Great descriptions of everything is prepared. Gluten free menu. Gluten free bread, but it cannot be grilled or toasted due to cross contamination. Fries are also cross contaminated. Cheese burger on gluten free bread with a salad is safe and I had this without problems.

Boygirl Collection

The online menu serves no justice compared to going in and catching the vibe. I wanted to order 3 different meals 😩 I don't know how I missed the mac n cheese grilled cheese sandwich but, that's what I ordered thankful that the employee sold me by simply giving me my choices. When I come back to visit this is for sure on my must-eat list. They have gluten-free opinions which works out as well for those who have celiac. Yes. I was very big backed eating this 😆 🤣

BenJoDan

We've been coming here for many many years. They have a gluten-free menu, and vegetarian options as well. The dining area is open with separate sections on the sides for family or get- togethers. Outside, they have a dining patio for warmer weather.

TK O'Geary

Buffett lunch for nearly 100 people; fresh salad and hot dishes. Nicely done. Several gluten free options (host and others needed gluten free). The room we were in was quite beautiful, fresh, alive. Felt like we were outside in the sun, but we were inside. Service staff were outstanding. Always close by without hovering. Quick service. Food was pretty good. However, the sopaipilla "walls" were quite thick. Almost like a slice of bread was flattened and deep fried. Not very enjoyable. Overall, though, one of my better visits to El Pinto.

Dale Zinn

We quit going when they charged for hot water And lemon but iced water is free.. Most expensive gluten free pizza on the planet

Tim Simoneaux

Great place! Food was delicious and came out promptly. The staff was polite and the atmosphere was great. It's a dog friendly establishment, and they were kind enough to give our dog a bowl of water. They have allergy oriented food and even celiac safe beer, which is pretty cool.

Siobhán Archibald

I come here every time I have a conference in Santa Fe and it never disappoints! Even the kids love the food and the options, and the service is always exemplary. They even had gluten free toast!

Torrey Brooks-Mauga

Staff were phenomenal at helping us make a friend's birthday special! Our group had vegans, vegetarians, and people with food allergies (in addition to a couple of meat and potatoes folks) and our waiter was able to make recommendations that left everyone's needs met and our palate's satisfied. I have anaphylactic food allergies, and tend to avoid going out to eat (nothing ruins a date night faster than an ambulance ride to the ER). I called beforehand to find out if there were any dishes I could safely eat (there was) and the manager asked me to still let the waiter know about my food allergies before ordering. Staff were pleasantly surprised by my service dog remaining invisible, even after a gentleman walked by with his "service dog" that barked and lunged under my chair. The tables are a little close together for easy wheelchair use, I wouldn't go when I'm having a POTS flare, despite the tables being the correct height for my chair. If you are a wheelchair user, I would recommend calling ahead and making a reservation, and requesting a table that is easily accessible (and not need to go beyond the cloth covered booths). The format of the tables does make it very easy for properly trained service dogs to tuck under the tables and remain invisible to patrons and out of the way of staff...even my mastiff/lab cross was easily able to tuck under the table and minimally impact the person seated across from me (they just had to be mindful to not kick her, they said she was completely out of their way). The food was so good, and kitchen staff did such an amazing job at not permitting cross contact with my allergens, Thursday night may have been my first time at Seasons 52, but it definitely won't be my last! Gluten free, dairy free and nightshade fruit free meal!

Alice Langford

Good food pleasant atmosphere and they have a gluten free menu.

Annie Tam

This is our favorite date night spot in Taos! The ambiance can’t be beat and the food is wonderful. Their gluten free options are plentiful and I am obsessed with the GF blue corn bread and homemade butters!

Bill Adkison

A very nice place for dinner, and they cater to gluten-free and dairy-free requirements, along with serving really good food. The service is great, too.

Bea Cruz

My daughter CANNOT eat any gluten and Outback made sure she could enjoy a meal with her family. ..totally gluten free. Thank you!

gk denos

Very accommodating to customers with gluten and dairy allergies. The green chile enchiladas were excellent! The dining room wasn't especially clean and my table was sticky, but the food and the service were great! I would definitely recommend!

Gary Standke

Great selection of gluten free dining options with a separate gluten free menu as well as vegan and vegetarian. I had the pear salad and nachos. All gluten free and tasted great.

Katie Warner

Very friendly and professional staff in a small but cozy space. The menu is small but 5 of us all got something different and all really enjoyed it. Very accommodating to gluten free (had a gf pasta option).

Mandy Reilly

Delicious food and bottomless fries that are gluten free make me very happy! Mel was attentive and helpful!

Cassidy Harvey

My fiancé and I stopped here on a road-trip, she is a celiac so it was a pleasant surprise that they had a separate gluten free/celiac friendly menu. We both had the Steak Guadalajara with the ribeye instead of the sirloin and it was worth every penny. It was the best meal we’ve had in a restaurant in years and we were talking about how fantastic it was for days afterwards. The service was also very attentive and friendly, even though our server was still training he was an absolute gem and made a great experience even better. So if you ever stop in Tucumcari, try Del’s it was more than worth it for us!

Isabella Perez

They have a nice outdoor area to sit in which is what we went for. We started with the shishito peppers and bison relleno. Both were so delicious! We are gluten free, and they offer gluten free bread crisps they call “bird seed” in place of their homemade bread. They are delicious salty crisps you can top with butter. I really appreciate all the gluten free options. They offer many organic/natural wine varieties (labeled in green on the menu). The rib chop was cooked perfectly and delicious, and the employees were all kind and attentive.

Veronica Marshall

My allergies are wheat gluten dairy and soy I got the salmon wrap no dairy and a side of smash fingerlings my dad got the smash burger. Everything was delicious and well seasoned the waitress knew accommodating and how to substitute. You could see the kitchen from the table I sat at.

Megan Belz

My husband and I were passing through the area on a road trip and we decided to stop here. We are in a big RV towing our city driver and needed a large parking lot one we could park and pull through luckily this location has exactly that! We ordered the elote corn cauliflower dip with tricolored corn tortilla chips, side salads with lemon basil vinaigrette, breakfast burrito, and a build your own burger, and a round of drinks total was $74.09. Everything came out hot and tasted amazing. The lemon basil dressing is such a unique and delicious dressing you won't find other places. I wanted to buy a bottle to go it was soooo good!!! We tried something we've never had with the dip appetizer and by my surprise one of the best restaurant made dips I've had in a long time! My husbands burrito was huge and he said it was everything he needed after driving. My burger was cooked to perfection, onions grilled just the way I like them! Truly a great meal! We both have food allergies/ restrictions husband has diverticulitis and I have a gluten allergy our server was not only knowledgeable but was able to make recommendations and accommodate both of us. This is rare to find on the road. If we are ever back in the area we know where to come back to! Thanks for a wonderful lunch 👍🏼👍🏼

Sarah Grewe

Loved finding this place. Lots of gluten free options and the best waitstaff! The margaritas and nachos were amazing!

Julia Longtin

The staff was very friendly and explained that the food was all gluten free except for the wraps. We ended up with a potato base rather than fry base because they ran out. The smaller of the two portions is enough to feed two people. The food was really good. I would go there again.

Patrick D. Baker

We had 3 different items on this being my first trip to Ruby Tuesday. First there was the unremarkable salad bar. Not much to talk about there. Second we ordered some of the BBQ chicken nachos sans BBQ sauce. While the chips were crispy the cheese sauce has a strange flavor. Maybe like a smoke flavor? They were ok but not the best. Third I ordered a Philly cheesesteak sandwich with onion rings. I had never had such a sandwich in my life. It was an open faced style of sandwich on a roll with cheese melted on the top. It was as greasy as the onion rings. Although the service was good, the food wasn’t very. Mustard should be in a container & not handed out in packages with a sit down meal. The drinks kept coming and we didn’t need to ask which was good. If you’re a gluten free vegetarian then I hope your pockets are a bit fatter because they’re going to charge you more for a burger. $2 extra for a gluten-free bun (with 45 more calories) & $3 extra for an Awesome patty. That sucks. Good thing I like meat & gluten. So all in all the food wasn’t that good and left me with an upset stomach. I won’t be coming back.

Edi E

We waited half an hour to find seating after ordering. Once we were seated, it took another 45 minutes to get our orders. When we received it finally, my husband’s chicken fried steak was cold, and my steak and eggs had a long hair in it. I ordered gluten free toast and never received it.

Beverly Bradford

I got the gluten free bread, too dry, hardly any meat or fixings, one of the worst sandwiches I've had a firehouse subs.

Carrie Jones

Love their pecan syrup and gluten free pancakes! My kids loved the crepes.

Yvette Montoya

Super delicious, excellent service, Gluten free hamburger buns!!!!

Christina Flows

We had a really nice experience having dinner at Seared. Our server was very attentive and explained everything. They also made dessert recommendations and it was delicious. Food was good and very unique. Lots of different protein options and things prepared in interesting ways. I also appreciated that the menu is labeled gluten-free and the majority of the items are or can be made gluten-free. Overall a great experience.

Katrina Kibben

Love the staff, the patio, and the food is *incredible.* They have gluten free and vegan options that make you wonder out loud how they made it that well. It's also dog friendly. We will definitely be back

Psychedelieh

Denny's is always a confirmation: we ate very well, helpful and kind staff, generous portions. There are also gluten-free/gluten-free dishes

Cody & Jennifer Batchelor

This place has delicious food and good sized plates of it! They also have a decent amount of gluten free choices, which is a VERY nice quality to not have to "hope" for the best. Their service has always been fast and friendly each time my family has been there.

Rachel Miller (SavvySheep)

Tasty food and a clean establishment! I'm gluten free due to some reaction symptoms, but not a diagnosed Celiac. My family chose this restaurant from Trip Advisor as we were passing through because of vegan and gluten free recommendations. I think the food may be cooked on a shared grill (really not sure), but I can say I had no reaction myself. People far more sensitive than me might want to eat one of their beautiful salads or discuss further with the staff. The menu doesn't specify gluten free anywhere, but the staff are very friendly and accommodating and the food is simple enough I think they can make you something. I ordered the "Kari" and my mother (also sensitive) ordered Huevos Rancheros without the flour tortilla on the side. Both cooked to perfection! We loved the food and would definitely go here again on our next trip through the area. Tucumcari is in a sort of gluten free dead zone for travelers. I am very happy to have found this gem! You should visit!

Graciela Pacheco

Longhorn is my favorite steakhouse. They have a gluten free menu and I always order Flo's 6oz filet with sweet potatoes. I found my steak to be spicy but it wasn't till I got home and got sick that I realized my order wasn't done gf. The spices should have given me pause as they don't put spices on the gf order. My fault really. I'll be sure to remind and request that my order be Gluten Free like the menu states. Anyone can make a mistake and our server was lovely. I will continue to go to Longhorn for my Flo's filet.
