It was disappointing to learn that this is no longer a woman-owned business. The ownership change doesn’t seem to have been handled very transparently. From what I’ve heard, the previous owner may not have been treated fairly during the transition, which is really disheartening. The new owners haven’t communicated much about it, and it feels like the heart of the business has changed.
You can also tell Alejandra isn’t behind it anymore — she would never bring in another gluten-free brand. She always created everything from scratch herself. Even with her recipes, it’s clear the new team hasn’t been able to capture that same quality in new gluten-free treats.
Just sharing my thoughts as a long-time supporter and customer.
A local gem with wonderful food at a reasonable price! We’ve visited at least once or twice a month for the last year and it never disappoints. They have extensive gluten free options and a salsa bar. We also love their outdoor patio and margaritas/cocktails. Love this place!
First time at this location, as it was nearby to my doctors visit. I was glad to see they offer gluten free bread! I’ve gone to Jason’s for years, but not since I’ve become GF. I used to always get the muffuletta. Today I ordered the turkey chub on GF bread without the cheese, side fruit. I also had the plain Jane potato, without sour cream or cheese. Food was excellent. Service good. The fire alarm did go off for awhile while we were there, but it was some issue with the ebtte shopping center. My mentor got the kids chicken tenders and the southwest chilli, both of which she enjoyed.
The ice cream machine was working, but I can’t partake as I can’t eat dairy.
Very spacious and well designed location.
We came up for a concert and found La Chiquita. My wife is gluten intolerant and the menu has so many items that are gluten free. The guac and corn salsa are delicious. The tacos and quesadillas are fantastic. The atmosphere was warm and very inviting. The owner is so friendly and personable. The staff is also amazing. It feels like you are dining with friends. Definitely recommend this restraint!!!
Great local coffee shop! I usually come during the last hour that they’re open to journal. I ask the workers for food recs and they give great options. I’m glad that they have gluten free options too so I can eat here with my friends! 10/10 recommend! :)
Overall good experience at First Watch Decatur. The hostess, servers and cashier are great.
Where I take off a star is the wait for beverages. We ordered a cold brew and two hot coffees, and they came out about 45 minutes after we ordered, came after the food arrived.
Another thing to bring up, I am gluten intolerant and ordered gluten free toast. I am used to what GF bread looks like so when it arrived I immediately noticed it was regular bread. The server changed it for me but if someone with a gluten allergy ordered it and received the wrong thing they could have been very very sick. So please I ask that you watch this closely.
Super tasty food and nice staff but these two items are important for a good restaurant experience for me.
Extremely friendly service and coffee was excellent! *Bonus* they had a gluten free peanut butter cookie that was probably the best I've tried anywhere 😁
Delicious comfort food and beverages with a deep menu to select from. Plenty of gluten free options. Servers were pleasant and prompt, and the atmosphere feels like a house diner.
Just had an unpleasant experience at this restaurant. My wife and I are celiac. The person waiting on us had no knowledge of what this meant and made it clear that she did not want to walk the 20 feet to the kitchen to find out if items were gluten free or not. The restaurant serves only milk, no substitutes. My wife's order as delivered was not as ordered. We won't be back and we recommend if you are gluten intolerant, go elsewhere.
Southern charm with a twist of urban hipness! Delicious gluten free brunch menu--one of the best I've seen which means a lot from someone who lived in San Francisco for 16 years! The gluten free cinnamon roll is an absolute must. They are also known for their strawberry orange juice. I ordered the Moroccan shakshuka with eggs poached to perfection.
I was in the middle of moving and was having a horrible day. There had been a misunderstanding with my server who seemed new and did not explain the GF menu well to me. The moving stress was taking its toll and I decided to leave instead of order. In my own "Karen" moment, I decided to call and ask for the manager while driving away. Thank goodness, I did! Her name was Charlotte and her warmth radiated thru the phone. She was profusely apolgetic and sought to remedy the misunderstanding immediately by inviting me back to explain the menu better. The food was incredible and I even bought take out for a friend. I will be a neighborhood regular here!
The rest of the staff is also excellent and really cares about customers having a good experience. I would have never known they were a regional chain from the personableness of the staff.
