They have a gluten free menu! My boyfriend with celiac disease has tried the chicken pad Thai and the chicken fried rice with no reaction!

Customer service is amazing. They go above and beyond. They are knowledgeable on celiac disease and care for customers.

Sam Hosein

Yummy Indian restaurant with nice ambience. The menu has lots of yummy options including vegan and gluten free. Service is limited. The staff is friendly and will allow you to sit wherever you like. Only indoor seating is available. At every table there's a QR code that's used to see the menu as well as pay. Food is freshly prepared and came out quick. Lots of free self parking.

Definitely worth it. Haven't been in years and was glad to see they've finally added some gluten free options

Came here for a bd celebration. 6 out of 5 stars for presentation, food, service, and atmosphere. Brian did an exceptional job making sure our meat was well done and to our liking. All of the meat was delicious, and the sides during brunch were perfect. You may also go to the buffet bar where rhere is an assortment of fruit, potatoes, waffles, sausage, fritata, mixed greens, etcetera.They offered a $53 pp special for Father's Day, so it was very crowded. The sides came with polenta, gluten-free bread, mashed potatoes, and fried bananas. Bathrooms are on premises. Valet parking or park for free near the restaurant.

My favorite burger place. They have gluten free buns and their salads are tasty too! Great service!

Magda Kopciuch

Definitely not good service. Once tried to order one drink at 7/40 pm (place is open until 8 pm on Sundays, unkind bartender said its too late… bar was still full of people, he was just too lazy to serve me a drink during normal open hours. Today I’ve ordered gluten free turkey burger to go- to eat on the plane- with NO AVOCADO bc have a very strong allergy (that I informed of) and can’t have avocado even touching my food. Burger was with avocado, wasted 18$ and now Im starving on my flight cause can’t eat this… Please hire better staff

This spot is a bit of a hidden gem, tucked away in an apartment complex, but it’s definitely worth seeking out. It has a cozy, intimate vibe, almost like a little community restaurant. Despite its smaller size, there’s plenty of seating both inside and outside, making it a great place to grab a quick sandwich, relax, and catch up with friends or just get something to go. They offer daily specials, with a separate menu for those, which I think is a nice touch. I was impressed by their gluten-free bread option, which held up well and didn’t get dry or fall apart—always a concern with gluten-free options. The bread still had great flavor, and the sandwich was packed with all the right ingredients: plenty of meat, fresh lettuce, tomato, and just the right amount of mayo and mustard, so the bread stayed intact and didn’t get soggy. The customer service was outstanding as well. I was warmly greeted when I walked in, and the staff gave me great recommendations for what to try. As for gluten-free options, I’m not sure if the facility is entirely Celiac-safe due to potential cross-contamination, but it’s definitely a good choice for those following a gluten-free diet. They also offer some solid vegetarian options, which is a nice bonus. While the sandwiches are on the pricier side, the portion sizes are generous, and the quality is there. My sandwich was big, and it came with a side of chips. Everything was delicious and flavorful, and I can see myself coming back to try other sandwiches from their menu. The smoothies were also fantastic, adding another reason to return. Overall, it was a great experience, and I’d definitely come back to explore more of what they have to offer.

Love this place. Have been coming here every time I am in Irvine. The salads are delicious and so are the sandwiches. They have gluten free bread.

Amazing selection of Gluten Free/Dairy Free options as well as vegetarian options. Always a great time visiting Little Sister at the Spectrum. Great service, always very knowledgeable servers who are very cautious and thorough when it comes to dietary requirements. Very cool vibes for a date night or groups of friends with cool lighting, music and decor. 10/10.

I used Lime Food Truck for my husband's 50th Birthday party recently. Ethan was very communicative and worked within my food restraints (all food had to be gluten-free for my husband's celiacs) and budget. On the day of the event, the team showed up on time and were friendly but professional. A week later I am still getting compliments on the quality of food! I would love to use Lime Food Truck again for any catering needs.

Melanie Sears

If your looking for a phenomenal breakfast restaurant, this is it! Great menu with gluten-free options. Went on a Sunday, line was long but that’s always a good sign! Lots of outdoor seating.

Melissa Lambrecht

I had one of the best gluten free meals I've ever had here! Very chill atmosphere with great service. I'll be back!

Catherine A L

Great little coffee shop amongst the homes… gluten free donut and nitro cold brew are amazing!

Katie Strekalova

Got the espresso mascarpone waffle, it was delicious. Pity that they can't make it gluten-free, but oh well. The espresso mascarpone is AMAZING, I need to learn how to make it!!! Ordered & served within 20-25 minutes, reasonably good for a summer Sunday at 11am. I like the pay-up-front approach, so European & very efficient.

Cynthia F

I love Lazy Dog. I visit and door dash it frequently. I have celiac disease and can't eat gluten. They have a separate gluten free menu with many delicious options, plus dessert!

Hekasq X

Delicious desserts and coffee. Gluten free selection range of products is very decent and most importantly tasty. My go-to place for cakes, cupcakes and macarons.

My wife has gluten Issues, so it's hard to find bakeries that have gluten-free food. They do, and she loved it.

Tess Ricci

The food was absolutely incredible! I have Celiac, so I needed gluten free, and they were great about accommodating me! There aren't many gluten free options, but the options they do have are incredible! Highly recommended! If you are bringing the kids like we did, maybe plan to bring something separate for them -- especially if you have a picky eater like I do!
