I cannot understand this place. We used to eat here every now and then, several years ago, though the Allen location was our favorite until it went downhill. It’s one of the few places that has gluten free toast and pancakes….which USED to be really good. Now there are more options out there and the quality of their GF is suffering.
We were the first ones in the restaurant, yet everything but the corned beef hash was VERY cold! Just HOW!?!?
The eggs were way overcooked.
My wife has some disabilities that are worsened when having to chew cold GF toast (IYKYK). She explained this to the server, promising a huge tip for a hot, softer piece of toast. He then blabbed it loud enough to the kitchen(with attitude) for the entire restaurant to hear (more people had come in) and still brought back not as cold toast.
Just because you stay busy, doesn’t mean you’re the best or that you quit trying. We spent $40 for this treatment, then went down to Chick-fil-A and had a $6 breakfast that was a million times better!!
But hey, Eggsquite has good coffee…
I always need Gluten free options and this place not only provides them but the food is fantastic. I love the layout with something for the kids to do and the service is always awesome
I recently visited this place for the first time, and I have to say, it was an amazing experience! Ordered the deviled eggs, crispy chicken breast, and the gluten-free chocolate mousse & orange vanilla custard pie. Everything was so delicious.
The service was excellent, with attentive and friendly staff. The atmosphere was also great—comfortable and inviting. I’ll definitely be back to try more! Highly recommend!
Busy little restaurant, so it can get a bit loud. The food is excellent, and the servers are attentive. They have gluten free options which makes it a versatile place to meet for lunch.
Highly recommend! They were willing to use EVOO for all oil needs, accommodating my request for no seed oils and were able to serve the Osso Bocco gluten free. Cecilia, our server was extremely knowledgeable but also very eager to speak with the Chef to accommodate all my quirky needs. She was there every time we needed her without over kill. The Octopus was the best I’ve eaten anywhere. Cooked to perfection with fried potatoes in EVOO and the decadent sauce to enhance the flavor was just flawless. The Panna Cotta with the fresh berries was in my opinion one of the freshest and amazing desserts I’ve eaten in many a meal. I will return often even though I live 30 miles away. It will be a new favorite go to for us and my whole family as we all enjoy clean, fresh foods! Job well done!!!
I love this little cafe! This is one of the few places open as early as 7am (which is perfect for us night-shifters who get off work at 6am) AND they have gluten free pancakes and French toast on the menu! Both times we’ve been there Tyler was our server and he is so kind and so attentive. Food is excellent, service is wonderful and prices are fair. My only complaint is the smell of the cleaning products is a little strong which is disappointing in a restaurant. But we still love to eat breakfast here!
Loved the food, service was great, atmosphere was very pleasant. Most of the menu was or could be prepared gluten free, and the gluten free toast with homemade jam was a real treat! Great coffee. Park in a parking garage. Highly recommend.
Fresh good quality coffee with a wide array of flavors, and friendly service. Amazing crepes that can be made gluten free! Strawberry matcha is always fresh and delicious. The mixed berry crepe was light and flavorful, one of the best crepes I've had.
Great place, great service and food was very good! The bartenders were very helpful in letting me know what was safe to eat for Gluten free. Went there a couple times and both times was great. Will be going back for sure! I tried two different desserts and the mussels. Didn't get picture of mussels.
I didn't want to cook and and since I need to be gluten free, I found that they had a cauliflower crust pizza. It was delicious the crust was perfect and the service was fast!
While in McKinney, I came across this coffee shop. I ordered the gluten free cinnamon pecan muffin and an almond milk latte. The latte tasted really good and the muffin was absolutely delicious.
I highly recommend this place!

I just moved to McKinney a couple weeks ago and have been testing out different gluten friendly spots since. This place was without a doubt the best one I’ve had so far. My 8 year old sister and I both eat gluten free and our waitress Patricia was so accommodating and helpful!! Their gluten free pancakes are fantastic and so was the omelette I got. The entire meal was great, from my latte to the side of bacon. 100% a recommended spot for anyone gluten free!!
Nice little place. Stopped in on a Saturday afternoon. It was not crowded. Service was great. Food was wonderful. Hostess was helpful with asking about gluten free options. There were a lot of flies in the dining room. That was a little off putting. Overall, it was a great spot with tasty food.
I just tried Taco Ocho for the first time and it did not disappoint. The service was great. The food was great. Everything was on point. I had brisket tacos. The flavors were amazing. The house salsa was really good as well. My daughter needed gluten free options and they had a bunch. I will be coming back for sure.
I had gluten free pancakes with bacon and eggs. Eggs and bacon were ok. Nothing special. But the GF pancakes were very bland and tasteless. It would be great if they put some seasoning in them, maybe vanilla or ?? They were like eating glue. Husband had Denver Omelette and said it was good.
El Mejor Mexican Kitchen in McKinney delivers an authentic dining experience worthy of its name. The atmosphere buzzes with a lively spirit, matched by five-star service that makes every guest feel like family. Sipping on their house margaritas, which hit the perfect note of zest, I reveled in the gluten-free offerings—especially the Carne Asada tacos wrapped in soft corn tortillas, rich in flavor and crafted with care. Overall, El Mejor gets a glowing 5-star rating, with its culinary prowess shining through every gluten-free bite. A must-visit for anyone seeking genuine Mexican cuisine served with a generous helping of hospitality.
Very nice historical location in the heart of McKinney. We went for my birthday and they were great. I am gluten free and they have a seperate menu.
They even provided a special dessert.
My first visit was yesterday. Upon walking in, I couldn’t figure out how to order food, there were no menus anywhere. I saw one case that had some drinks and some sides and then there was one case that had premade sandwiches. I noticed that people were receiving orders, names were being called to pick up your order. So I asked the girl at the order desk if there was food to order or if I had to pick a sandwich from the case and she said pick a sandwich from the case. So then I ask her if I could have a sandwich made without bread, I’m gluten-free. She told me no the lady back in the prep kitchen told me there were salads at the end and to go get a salad. There was one salad option a small Caesar, but unfortunately, I have an egg allergy too. It was a bit frustrating and I don’t understand why they wouldn’t make me a sandwich without bread. So my entire lunch was potato salad. I don’t ever expect places to accommodate my food needs, but when I see them making custom orders and then they refuse to make me one, or don’t offer me a menu, that is super frustrating. I won’t be going back.
They have an amazing veggie omelette with goat cheese mushrooms and squash potatoes are perfect and they offer a tasty gluten-free toast. If you haven't come here yet, what are you waiting for!
Food was reasonably priced, service was kind and attentive. Great variety and great tasting burgers. My wife and daughter are unable to eat gluten and they accommodated by giving them a nice lettuce wrap for their burgers.
Probably here 3-4 times a week! Staff and owner are always welcoming and food is the freshest and bestest. I get the avocado superseed toast on gluten-free bread, chia pudding with fruit and of course the smoothies! This is the best location out of the ones I’ve visited. 5 stars every time!!
Excellent brunch meal. The food was great. Service, courteous and super friendly! Busy, busy with a short wait. Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options on the menu.
First of all, the 2 women who helped us were the best! We have not been treated this well in a restaurant in a long time. We were the first in for the day, and they took care of us.
My wife got the Sweet Potato Hash Bowl (good gluten free option), and I got the Retro Plate. We both loved our food. Coffee, tea, and a sweet side of Cinnamon Chip biscuits.
Everything was cooked well, great flavors, and 100% will be back. Loved it! And like many others have said, those Smashbrowns are some serious savory sides! They were the bomb!!
Highly recommend. Just know... if it's a weekend or holiday, it will be busy and maybe loud. I've been a couple times now. Weekdays are the time to go if you can. Quiet and plenty of seating.
Love the patio! Our server was super sweet and awesome. Drinks and food tasted good. They modified to do gluten free but I wish they had a dedicated menu for gluten free

Best gluten free burger bun…hands down. I’m so glad to have found a comfortable neighborhood place with great food. Love to relax here with friends and play a few games of pool/darts. The brunch breakfast potato skins are so good and the specials are amazing.
