My wife chose this place for their gluten-free options and positive reviews, and it did not disappoint!! Natalie was the best server ever! The manager was accommodating when we got there, and the food was fantastic! Our kids loved the watermelon juice, and I loved the root veggie juice. I could go on and on. What an amazing brunch!! Thanks, Natalie and team!!
We were seated quickly, no waiting. The food came quick enough. The gluten free waffles are amazing, I added bananas. If you're gluten free def worth a visit. The strawberry crepes and baked apple pancakes were big hits at our table. Service was really great, top notch, highly recommend
Great with Gluten free options. Even gluten free Key Lime pie for dessert. Service was wonderful. Sat out on deck with a great view. Very enjoyable. Thank you for a wonderful experience. It is a bit pricey but really with it. I had the Hot Pot...it was very, very good.
Great vegan healthy food. It’s nice to go to a cafe where I don’t have to ask if there’s any animal ingredients in it, because there’s not. Everything but a handful of menu items is gluten free as well. The set up is very cute. Plant lined patio on Girard just into La Jolla. Not far from street parking. A few blocks from La Jolla Cove. Casual dining atmosphere, very basic. Cozy booth seating inside. It’s a small space, so if you’re bringing a large party, I’d call ahead to make sure there’s seating room. Everything is made by hand fresh daily by the owner himself. The food tastes great every time I’ve gone. My husband is a huge fan of Green Door because the owner mentioned staying up the night before Christmas Eve to make all the pre ordered Christmas dinners perfect. We called a few days ahead for our Christmas dinner last year which was shepherds pie and Christmas pudding. So so good!!! All we had to do was reheat the oven items, and reheat the Christmas pudding in boiling water. The preparing instructions were put on the lids. Only took about 20 minutes to reheat. Literally the best shepherds pie I’ve had, and my husband thought it was so cool because it tasted amazing without any animal ingredients. If you’re looking for something healthy, Green Door Cafe won’t disappoint. The prices aren’t cheap. The ingredients are bought frequently from local organic growers. A friend of mine has mentioned to me seeing the owner of Green Door Cafe riding his bike back to the restaurant with a basket full of greens. Which I thought was pretty cool.
You don’t have to worry if it’s going to give you a heart attack or make you fat because it’s all natural nothing is fried. Definitely worth a try!!
Super cute coffee shop. The sandwiches were amazing- specifically the avocado turkey sandwich. If you’re gluten free, they have gf bread as well! Highly recommend stopping by here.
Fantastic dinner! There is nothing better than having Celiac Disease and being able to feel as if you don't. My husband, son and I dined last evening for our anniversary. To start, we the had fresh Cesar salad and our son had the jerk pork belly. I had the salmon with truffles, my husband had the chicken and our son had the best burger. For dessert there was banana cake and ice cream, for me without the cake, and my husband had stuffed donuts. The staff was absolutely professional, kind and understood what I could and could not eat. The great news was most dishes were fine for me to select. We added Nine-Ten to our rotation of local restaurants recently and I am happy we did!
Excellent food! Great service! We also loved that they accommodated food allergies - child with egg and tree nut allergies and adult with avocado and pork allergies. We don’t have a gluten allergy but they have a gluten free dedicated fryer (and the fryer was egg and TN free) and gluten free options.
Literally the best place ever. Dave and Dan are so sweet and the food is so so good! They have gluten free bread too for any allergens. If Dave is making his homemade tomato soup, you HAVE to try it (dairy free!). Perfect for a beach day or quick lunch and super friendly atmosphere!
BEST GLUTEN FREE CHOC CHIP MUFFINS!!! Tastes like the freshest chocolate ganache cake I've ever had. I wanted to cry. Absolutely incredible. You guys are purely amazing ❤️
A nice dog friendly casual dining restaurant. Excellent food, fun beverages & a dog menu! I appreciated the sugar free mocha option and the gluten free muffins.
The self-serve coffee outside while you wait was very nice. We had to wait 30 minutes longer than quoted for a table but otherwise everything was great.
We had an amazing experience at Barbella! The food was absolutely delicious—everything was cooked to perfection. Our waiter, Art, provided excellent service, staying attentive and making sure we had everything we needed. They also had sooo many gluten-free options, which was a huge plus! The Valentine's decorations outside were adorable and added a charming touch to the atmosphere. We realized after leaving that we forgot to check out the inside, but based on the outdoor decor, I’m sure it was just as lovely. Can’t wait to come back and try more!
