My partner and I love bloom bake shop! Their breakfast sandwiches are to die for, and I am a big fan of their sweet potato donut is delicious! Lots of gluten free options available as well! There is always going to be a long line out the door, but it is worth it!

Food was phenomenal. Absolutely appreciated the variety in the menu vegan and gluten free options. Waiting times were a little long but I think that speaks to how good the food was and how busy they were. Despite the long wait, service was great. Warm and friendly. Our server Jessica was great.

We were on vacation in the Madison area and happened to find this restaurant. It was one of the highlights of our trip. The food was simple but had amazing flavor. It was fun to try new food. It’s by far the BEST food I’ve had at any restaurant in a long time. We shared the Pabellón and arepas with shredded chicken and avocado so we could try two different dishes. I couldn’t stop saying how good the food was! The arepas were my favorite. I eat gluten free and dairy free and the guy at the counter was super helpful giving me multiple options and suggestions. They have a dedicated gluten free fryer so I felt very safe eating here. We can’t wait until we’re back in Madison so we can eat here again!

Amazing customer service, people were extremely nice and friendly. Food was good and had excellent choices for vegan and gluten free, allergy friendly menu items. Not super expensive either, which is a huge plus so I can come here more regularly. Only leaving 4 stars because of the water having salt/minerals* and they had to remake my friend’s vegan tacos. Also would add that my mocktail was mostly ice… They were really good about providing allergen free laminated menus with notes. *Suggestion to restaurant, I know other people have commented about the water. It probably would have been a 5 stars if not for water quality. It just was a gritty tap like taste. (FYI water snobs in Madison, RED has the best free water served in restaurants)

First time eating here and all of the food was delicious! I also have a gluten allergy and they took extra precautions to ensure I had a safe meal. Will be eating here again!

First time here, and I was very satisfied with the El Papí sampler and the Lomo Saltado a Caballo (center)paired excellently with a glass of Malbec. My fellow lunch party also enjoyed their meals. They had the Parrilla Callejera (left) and La Taguara Burger (right). They have plenty of gluten-free options as well. Will return again.

amazing food! lovely atmosphere - upbeat and wowing decor. an amazing array of beers wines and bloody mary’s as well. if you come, start with the traditional frites (fries) and blackened garlic ranch aioli sauce - fantastic! plus for anyone that is gluten free or celiac they have a dedicated gluten free menu - woo hoo!

Mission BBQ has become part of our regular rotation. The BBQ is great, and the customer service is excellent. All of the food we've tried has been tasty, and my wife appreciates that the fry oil is gluten free. The very pro-men-in-uniform decor won't be everyone's cup of tea, but unless it really bothers you Mission BBQ is worth a visit

I waited too long to come back! The food is so delicious and there is a whole section full of vegan and also gluten free items on the menu. The yucca fries, vegan chorizo empanada and the vegan black forest cake were particularly good.

Despite my having told our server that I wanted the gluten-free flatbread, he brought out sandwich bread. He then put the correct order in, but I had to ask him to follow up. When he brought it, it had been baked too long. Also, the menus don't have GS notations to help me know what is safe for me to eat. I had to literally insist that the server check with the kitchen (in response to his "It should be fine" answer when I asked about the entree that I was considering). Not the best experience I've ever had at Cento.

Food was delicious. 9/10. My personal favorite dishes included green curry and praham long song. Everyone we talked to recommended the red noodles, so definitely try those as well! I got the foco roasted coconut juice as a drink which was nice but wouldn’t re-order. To be truthful, I only got it because it had boba. The sticky mango rice as dessert was DELICIOUSSSS and a fun cultural food to try. The cream cheese wontons were exquisite. Basic, but delicious. Almost everything here can be made vegetarian and gluten free which is great if someone has dietary restrictions. Overall would definitely recommend this place, especially with parents in town as it is a little pricey for the college student budget. The service was good except they do this thing where you have a table but must go to the front and order every time and then they bring your food out to you. I was not the biggest fan as someone constantly had to get up to go order food, a drink, etc. and it broke conversation. May just be a personal preference though. My final rating is an 8/10 for the restaurant.

High end cuisine and service. They “get” gluten free.
