Gluten-free pasta is not celiac safe (shared pasta water). Entrees like the salmon can be made 100% gluten-free.

I think it's very nice that they have gluten free options here, and all of the workers seemed very polite except one. The worker checking me out had such an attitude. He had short brown hair and when i politely asked for the gluten free creme brulee he gave me such a rude look and said "your confusing me, look in the case that's all we have right now" in a very rude tone. While i'm not upset that they were limited on the gluten free options that day, i am upset that the worker had to be disrespectful to a customer trying to find a gluten free option. It was confusing as online they had a long list of gluten free options but only 2 available things in store.

I sought this place out during a short trip to San Diego because it’s seed-oil free, is committed to using organic and whole ingredients, and has lots of gluten-free options. Parakeet Café did not disappoint. I ordered their eggs and salmon w/ gluten free toast, and the acai bowl….they were both so good that I went I ordered the exact same thing at the Coronado location later that day. The staff were also nice.

We stopped by while in the area for lunch. It was a sunny day and we were thrilled we didn’t have to wait and got a table outside under cover for shade. I ordered a gluten free flatbread with prosciutto and arugula. It was a nice size, very tasty and fresh ingredients. Service was good even though it was a busy day.
