By far my favorite breakfast spot to order from. Have dined in several times and everything from the staff to the food to the atmosphere is enjoyable. Ordering take out is fast and easy. I also have a gluten allergy and their gluten free menu has quite a few options and all made well and delicious.

Absolutely delicious food! I haven’t been to Cheesecake Factory in years since my celiac diagnosis and was pleasantly surprised by the amount of options they offered. I ordered the Sweet Corn Tamale Cakes, the Green Chile Chicken Enchiladas and the best of them all the gluten free Low-Licious Cheesecake. The food was very flavorful! The Sweet Corn Tamale Cakes tasted a little bit like corn bread and it paired nicely with the added garnishes on top of them. I was able to share it between my sister and I because they’re a pretty decent size(maybe like a hockey puck size for reference). The Enchiladas were delicious like most enchiladas are. The thing that took me back by surprise and was the best was the gluten free Low-Licious Cheesecake!!! I have not had a good gf Cheesecake since being diagnosed with celiac disease, but this one really hit it to a T. I couldn’t really tell the difference of it being gf compared to a gluten containing one. I’m a very sensitive celiac and had no issues after eating here, just make sure to let your server know if you have celiac or any allergies. Our server was very knowledgeable about celiac disease and took the precautions to ensure my food would be safe for me to eat with not cross contamination.
Everything about it was great the food was absolutely amazing and the workers were so nice. The atmosphere itself was such a calm vibe I absolutely love it there! It’s also a great for people who eat gluten free and who are vegetarians.
Their food is phenomenal!! Everyone on staff is so kind. I’m gluten free and they have a huge menu and make sure there is as little cross-contamination as possible.
This is by far an amazing place for drinks, wine tastings and/or a meal. Amazing gluten-free options and fantastic customer service! They even have an amazing gluten-free roll!
Breakfast restaurant with class. Amazing food, upscale recipes, generous portions (share or take away half), and amazing gluten free pancakes.
An omelet with a pancake 🥞 will fill up the most hungry person. They have regular and fancy omelets. Also interesting Benedicts.
Coffee is good but the cups are small, but they fill them whenever you want.
My husband wanted to try this place and I was prepared to only have a drink as someone with celiac disease.
Apparently Chompie's used to have a gluten-free menu but no longer have a separate menu nor do they have a marked menu. Unfortunately the website doesn't reflect this information and still displays a "gluten-free friendly" page with information about accessing their gluten-free menu. Today their website reads:
"You’ll find the scrumptious gluten-free goodies you’ve been craving on our restaurant menu and at our bakery counter.
Our gluten-friendly menu was created with gluten allergies and gluten sensitivity in mind. Browse our Menu for gluten-free friendly menu items as well as selections on our Kids' Menu.
You may also order gluten-friendly items from our online store."
The waiter told me that although they don't have a gluten-free menu anymore, the omelets are just cracked eggs with no additives like other famous breakfast chains. He said they could make an omelets gluten-free as long as my side was fruit because the potatoes are t celiac-safe.
I had the $16.28 chorizo con queso omelet with a side of fruit and a gluten-free bagel. I asked that they neither toast it nor cut it to prevent cross contamination. They brought me a serrated knife to cut it myself.
My husband had a not gluten-free pastrami sandwich for $15.99 and he liked it.
Overall, my meal was fine but I wouldn't come here as a celiac by myself. There's just way too much gluten that could potentially cross-contaminate the meal.
As an aside, one thing that bothered me that wasn't food related was that their male busser was listening to music and then having a facetime conversation with a woman with his phone tucked into his hat. I don't care if staff listens to music provided they're using headphones. Nobody wants to hear a facetime conversation or someone's music on a cell phone in public.

Food- delicious 😋
Bevererages- perfection
Cute boutique items and great gift ideas....oh did I mention chocolate?!
They also have "Consider this" bars...gluten free, dairy free, egg free, soy free, seed oil free, lecithin free...well they are yummy without all the allergies and crap.
Had lunch at Crust on Friday and shared a Nicky’s Burrata small pizza and arugula salad, which was very good, excellent service and a good experience. Had an opportunity to talk with a manager about gluten free options for my highly-gluten sensitive husband. Was excited to go to Crust the following evening with friends so he could have a great gf pizza that I was assured would be safe for him. We arrive for our 5:30 reservation and were seated promptly in the very busy restaurant. Talk w the waitress to explain the gluten sensitivity and asked for recommendations. When Tracy explained that the gf pizza was a small individual crust not made in house but was very good and no issue with cross- contamination and the Nicky’s burrata was the top seller, my husband ordered that, we ordered the arugula salad to share and I ordered the regular crust pizza. The gf pizza came out on a typical gf crust (nothing special) floating in olive oil from the pesto and very light on toppings, and the arugula salad had croutons on it! When pointing that out to Tracy she said she would check and returns to say it comes with croutons (and was noted on the menu) but it would have been very helpful if she had pointed out that before we ordered it to share. So bottom line, NOT recommended for anyone with gluten allergies or if you seek recommendations on dietary issues.
I was in the area dropping my dog off at the groomers and needed a tasty, quiet place where I could have a business call. I was greeted right when I walked in by a friendly hostess and I told her my needs. She asked if I needed an outlet or just a quiet corner. My server Sam helped me figure out a delicious order and then throughout my call she kept coming over and without disrupting the call, got within my line of sight and gave me a thumbs up.
I don’t think I’ve had someone check in on many as many times as Sam did today. The food was delicious and they were able to accommodate my gluten free diet requests. I had delicious blueberry gluten free pancakes, eggs, sausage, and hash browns. Oh, and a delicious fresh squeezed orange juice! I should have gotten a picture but I needed to hop on my call and fill my belly!
I have celiac disease and a lot of other allergies which makes it very hard to eat out. We have eaten here now over six times after church. Every single time the food is quick, they take cross-contamination seriously and I have not gotten sick. There are only two restaurants in the entire valley that I can feel confident and comfortable going to and First Watch is one of them!
Love this place!!! They have a gluten free spinach wrap that is 🔥. So fresh and delicious! I’ve have their avocado turkey as a wrap and a sandwich, delicious both ways!! I keep trying different items and everything has been SO GREAT!!!
Delicious breakfast, brunch, and lunch spot! I really liked the selection of items that aren't normally at all breakfast spots in the area, like frittatas, grits, and fresh salad with the eggs. They make so many things in house, like fresh squeezed OJ (upon ordering, I think), strawberry spread, lemon blueberry cornbread, and much more. Lots of variety. Many items can be made gluten free, and they have great GF toast. Our server was very attentive and cheerful.
Our server Sally was very attentive for all 5 of us, checking on us all throughout the meal. Picking up the plates as we finished with them, constantly refilling our coffees and waters the entire time. That alone made me want to come back here. But, the food was honestly incredible. The avocado toast, crepes, omelette, French toast and gluten free pancakes were all very good. The scrambled eggs were way better than the average breakfast place. Over all, I couldn't be happier with the experience.
If you have celiac disease, stay away. Informed Staff of celiac disease but they did not pay attention and I ended up in a very bad personal situation. Ordered gluten free toast, cheese omelette with spinach and hash browns but the order I received was wrong and I question the toast I received.
We were in town for a convention and ate here all 3 mornings we were here. The staff is wonderful and I have celiac disease and they all took extra precaution and were very knowledgeable. The manager Alexa went above and beyond for me when she didn’t have to, it was truly appreciated. Even the patrons were amazing, my husband is retired military and we had someone pay for our meal. This place is excellent, highly recommend!!! It means a lot going to a new place and finding somewhere that is so inviting and safe for me to eat
Decent atmosphere and food. Service was phenomenal. Server was very knowledgeable about gluten free dining and asked all the right questions. Margarita and mocktails were tasty. Veggie fajitas were great. Generous portion and well seasoned. Tamale was average. Disappointed it wasn’t hand made. Ground beef taco could have been better seasoned but it was decent. Tres leches (?) cheesecake was huge and delicious. We were there for three hours catching up with old friends and never felt rushed. Good experience.

It was our first time here and everything was very very good! Taylor was our server and he was very attentive and super nice. They also have so many gluten free options at the gourmet bar that are conveniently labeled.
We experienced Acqua Di' Mare on a whim. Our 19th anniversary and we are always looking for new places to dine. Read the reviews, looked over the website, thought... why not? Let me tell you why you should.
The food is exquisite. Off the charts flavor, and the presentation is to die for. We took no pictures - too engrossed in the experience. Started with the octopus and crab cake appetizers - crazy good. So light, so satisfying we knew the main course would be epic. I had a table unveiling of what is now the best filet steak I have ever had. Dressed and finished in front of me and a world of flavor within. My wife had a scrumptious rack of lamb and my MIL loved their signature dish, a seafood pasta (plenty of gluten free options, btw!). We finished with a shared tiramisu which was deconstructed in form and prepared at our table.
The staff are some of the kindest, most passionate people who truly care about and appreciate every customer that graces their door. Owner/chef Nikola even came around a few times to check on us with a genuine concern that we enjoyed our entire dining experience. The rest of the staff was superb and we wanted for nothing the entire evening.
All of this is enhanced by an intimate, comfortable decor folded into an otherwise busy downtown Chandler scene. We were transported to another time, another place when visiting Acqua Di' Mare. Go once, and you'll be hooked. We are, and we look forward to our next visit soon.
All 3 of our steaks were overcooked. And $7.79 for a side salad with your entree?! Wow! Everything was extremely overpriced. Anyway, the best meal was my son’s Colorado Chicken Salad. The Parmesan Crusted Chicken said nothing in the description about breadcrumbs. Glad I asked. Server assumed it was because of a gluten issue. Not the case at all. Overall, not really impressed with the experience today.
I’ll just start off by saying, we LOVE this Thirsty Lion location by Chandler mall. Lauren was awesome & the best server we’ve had yet!! She even took the time to ask our names & chat for a couple minutes, which means a lot as we are regulars & she’s the 1st to have taken the time 2 ask our names. Lauren was also very helpful when it came to my questions about gluten free items & did an amazing job overall with keeping our drinks filled, delivering our food & keeping an eye on our table throughout our visit. Our drinks & food were delicious, as always. Don’t want to jinx it but, we’ve never had a bad meal or drink yet. This is by far our favorite restaurant! Can’t wait for our next visit!
The service was awesome. The food was just average for us. The chips came out warm but were rather oily. Chunky Salsa was good , also got the spicy one they have but it wasn’t really spicy at all. The guacamole was good. They have lots of options with corn tortillas so good options for gluten free people. Three stars as the food was just average for us. The chicken in the fajitas was rather dry and flavorless.
I was staying at a nearby hotel because my mom is in a hospital nearby. The first night I was here, I got a call during my dinner and broke town during the call because my mom was not doing well and Deanna who works here came over and asked if I was ok and asked if I needed a hug. She made my evening. The second night I was here, Emily was an amazing server, very personable and thoughtful. I had excellent food and service each time. I have a gluten and a dairy allergy and they were able to accommodate both. I will be back. Thank you!
We went with a 10 person party and had a wonderful dinner! The hostess was friendly, the manager helped arrange tables for our group and our servers were on top of everything during our meal. Manuel’s was recommended as a great place that accommodates allergens, and they do! Gluten free & dairy free options that are delicious and safe meant that our family got to enjoy the meal without worry. Definitely will return!
Kitchen staff and front of the house are both absolutely amazing. The Chefs pour their heart into every meal they come up with and serve. Top quality food, a great team to be a part of. I recommend eating here to everyone I see, they have something for everyone wether your vegan, have a gluten allergy, or down to try anything new and delicious, this is the place to go. Very attending waitresses, very talented cooks, 10/10.
A couple of weeks ago we decided to try Red Lobster again after moving to Arizona a few years ago. We were very happy with our meal and exceptionally pleased with our server Melvin. I have celiac and he was very helpful in providing me with gluten free options. We went back today for a late lunch and were lucky enough to get Melvin again. His service is outstanding!

Kim did such an amazing job. 10/22/23 around 5pm. She was very courteous, attentive and kind. The restaurant was clean, comfortable and the food was amazing. They even had gluten free/ dairy free options for my girlfriend that she really enjoyed. I got the Mexican pizza. Absolutely amazing!!!!! I will be back.
Just tried this location for the first time and, while we did have a mishap, the way management handled everything was excellent. The food is great, so I'm certainly going to give them a second chance.
First, the good: They have a lot of gluten free options, which are really impressive. For instance, they have gluten free crab, which is a rare find. On that note, the Ahi Poke Stack is AMAZING. You have to order this, trust me. The burger and fries were also really good. Service was great, the location is awesome, and the decor is pretty freaking fantastic.
Now, for the mishap: They accidentally gave me a regular bun instead of a gluten free bun. I'm gluten free because I have to be, not by choice, so accidents like this do make me ill. However, as soon as they noticed they sent multiple people over to check on me, including two managers. Multiple people apologized profusely and they comped my meal. Later, one of the managers brought over their business cards so I could call or reach out at any point, should I need anything because of what happened. That is serious accountability and service. Thus, why I gave them 4 stars and will be going back for a second try.
Tonight's service was top notch. The food was good as usual. Love that I have a place where I can eat gluten free safely. My only criticism would be management's decision to have the bathroom floor scrubbed (not just mopped) at dinnertime (6:00p--ish), but that won't stop me from eating here again.
Good food. Fun atmosphere. Friendly staff. Even baby friendly. Wish there was a few more gluten free options but they definitely have SOME options, which is better than a lot of breakfast focus places. Definitely going to bring a DD next time to try out the bloody Mary bar!
Greeted by two hostess and one constantly had one of her fake acrylic nails in her mouth. She was doing this between using the tablet for seating and handling menus, just gross.
Didn't have reservations so seated at an outside table. Each table has heater or cooling unit above, so able to stay close to comfortable. But, since the restaurant is right off a main road, the noise from cars is very dominant. Better atmosphere inside the restaurant.
Server was Abby and she was great! Helped us pick out our oysters from their selection. They had good flavor, but were small. Husband really liked his herb crusted see bass. He noted the Asparagus had great flavor too. I ordered the short rib dish that is gluten free and it was delicious also. Lots of meat in this dish gave me leftovers to enjoy the next day too.
The patio gave us a great view of the Space X launch happening same night

Sagebrush does a great job at making fantastic but simple coffee beverages and I'm always appreciative of the gluten free offerings in the way of baked goods. The atmosphere inside is excellent as well. I did notice that the closest bike rack available is on the complete opposite end of the (rather large) plaza, despite ample parking spots and patio space. Unfortunately the closest alternative is to lock your bike to the dumpster fence out back.
Fantastic service and food! Our server David was very attentive and sensitive to gluten intolerance needs! He also was very friendly. Food was delicious!
