Seth and Maddy are the GREATEST! The whole kitchen staff made sure my friend with a gluten allergy could eat everything we were served and even gave her some gluten free crostinis to have with our appetizer. The food is amazing. The vibes are immaculate. Will return, 100000000/10 you must go here!!
One of my favorite coffee shops I’ve ever been to. You don’t want to miss this if you are in Macon! This is a quality spot with a cozy atmosphere and delicious, organic, all natural options made in house. I was very impressed and highly recommend visiting.
Drinks: Absolutely amazing. We got the chocolate moose latte and liquid gold latte. Perfectly flavored and not too sweet. And the drinks aren’t 80% ice like Starbucks 🤣.
Food: Delicious. We got the bacon egg and cheese and sausage egg and cheese sandwiches, as well as the gluten and dairy free blueberry muffin.
Service: Very friendly and fast!
Special highlights: Syrups and pastries are made in house. All natural, organic, non-GMO ingredients. So many gluten and dairy free options. All pastries are gluten free.
Thank you, Taste and See, for this wonderful experience!!
First time here and they ask you immediately if it’s your first time here and automatically start helping you with the menu and then the owner came out to see if he could help and he was so nice. I had the Tenmit Gluten Free Chicken bowl and miso soup. Absolutely delicious with large portions. My husband had Chizu cheese with chicken and he loved it. Really enjoyed everything!!!Mine was the first photo.
I have loved FOJ for more than a decade, so when I was diagnosed with celiac disease 2 years ago, I was relieved that I could still cobble together a meal at my favorite restaurant. Unfortunately, my experiences have been horribly inconsistent— staff doesn't seem to agree on what's gluten free, the gluten free bun was replaced with a less-than-edible cauliflower sponge and their new gluten free menu markers are performative as there's no dedicated fryer. Recently, I found pasta in my fruit cup. It wasn't the first time this has happened, and luckily— this time—I noticed the pasta coil before eating the cup. When I pointed it out to the waiter and tried to explain that even small amounts of cross contamination can make someone with a gluten allergy horribly sick for days, he handled it with little grace. I think it's time to bow out here— a sad realization because it would be easy for FOJ to properly accommodate this dietary restriction. .
Becareful if you have a gluten allergy website very misleading with gluten-free, they only offer 1 thing gluten free that's a personal size pizza, nothing else.
Update: After getting my receipt, i was charged a fee for being gluten free smh no wre does it state that you're charged an additional fee or that they only have 1 item.
Always a wonderful experience but please please please consider the fact that there are patrons with gluten issues. It would be so wonderful to have more options
I don't leave many bad reviews for restaurants. But I think what happened tonight deserved an honest negative review.
I picked this restaurant bc of its good reviews and past great experiences at other locations. We had a big party of 10 and had to wait a while to be seated. No big deal.
We get seated and i requested the printed gluten free menu. We place our orders. I specifically spoke with our server and let him know that I had a gluten allergy. He assured me he would let the kitchen know. My food came out wrong the 1st time, with gluten containing ingredients clearly visable. I pulled our server aside and let him know and reminded him that I have an allergy (not a preference), he assures me it was a mistake and that my entire meal will be remade. The rest of the table was about 1/2 done with their meals when my remade meal came to the table.
Everything looked fine. I moved the food around some and did not see any gluten ingredients. Out server assured me that one of the managers had personally remade my food and I had nothing to worry about. I had ordered the Brussel spout salmon salad and added grilled shrimp. The salmon and shrimp were litterally cold, as if they had been in the refrigerator. At this point I was hungry and embarrassed,
so I was going to push thru and eat the salad. After about 5 or 6 bites I was moving the salad around and low and behold, MORE GLUTEN INGREDIENTS.
The manager did comp my food and my husband's (his burger was ordered medium rare and came out more than well done), but this should never have happened.
Our server was attentive and did a great job, but the kitchen clearly has cross contamination issues and I did not feel like my health or safety were a primary concern at all.
We did leave a nice tip for our sever bc this was clearly not his fault. I don't know if I would try this restaurant again, at least this location, as several members of our party has less than expected quality of their food.
First of all, this is my place of employment as both a bartender and server, so I'm not sure how much weight my review holds. I love working here and currently we have an excellent front of house staff. We welcome guests of all ages looking to catch a game or just have a casual meal with friends. There is honestly something on the menu for everybody, even gluten free and vegan options, there is nothing on the menu I wouldn't recommend. The people who come here and get to serve usually seem to have a great time and enjoy their food. We aim for satisfaction and are eager to please. Come see us next time you are looking for a burger, wings, or nachos, or simply a place to hang out for an hour and drink some craft beers!
