Owners are wonderful. Messaged with owner Deepak. Made sure my concerns were addressed regarding gluten cross contamination. I wish this restaurant was in Seattle.

100 percent gluten free menu, and good drinks. They have taco specials, I picked the seafood option. The tacos were good, very fancy with the ingredients. I wish I had tried the meat tacos as well. The passion fruit margaritas was also good.

This is maybe my second google review I’ve ever given in my life. The gf pizza is amazing. It’s fluffy and the crust is a consistency that I didn’t think was possible in the world of gluten free. It’s my new favorite.

We purchased this late at night and did not have any high expectations because we did understand the store was gonna be closing. I don’t think I’ve ever had better Thai food in my whole entire life. It was the best food I have had in a long time. I am not one to write reviews, but this food was incredible. First things first, the Thai milk tea is authentic tasting milk, tea, and is perfectly sweet and is super addicting. Second we got Padruam-Mit and I am gluten-free so I didn’t think it was going to taste this incredible and full of flavor, but oh my goodness it was absolutely incredible. I don’t think you could find something better. Lastly we got a curry called Kaeng Panang And that had the perfect amount of spice and The savory was amazing. They also accommodate well for allergies, which is very much appreciated. Overall, you must try this place it is the best type food I’ve ever had.

Not my 1st time BUT stayed till l8 2 play TRIVIA w my friend and her hubby! My friend LOVED LOVED LOVED the gluten free choices and the Gluten Free Beer!

Any place that sells gluten free pancakes is a good place for me. The ambience and rest of food was very nice too. The seasoned tofu was good, but a little too salty for me.

EXTRA GLUTEN BABAY! This is still some of the best pizza pie in Portland!

The fact that this place does gluten free fried chicken with a DEDICATED FRYER has me hooked. I love having that knowledge that this space will be somewhere I can safely eat without worry! Delicious chicken cooked in a great sauce. Quick service for a Saturday afternoon as well. Very happy about that! Space inside is pretty small, so I definitely recommend opting to sit outside. The burger was cooked to medium, and was very juicy. Cocktails were also excellent. This place has a great happy hour menu as well if you find yourself searching the more budget friendly option. So many gluten free options to chose from on this menu, I would definitely recommend!

Eli Robinson

Phenomenal food and service. All vegan options with consideration for those who need gluten food as well. A perfect place to satisfy that 'diner' itch without the ambient sausage/bacon stank

Eric Dalrymple

Awesome little spot. Great food, great service. Several high quality vegan and gluten free options.

Nicky Comer

Such a great experience, every time. The sushi is always so flavorful and fresh. As someone with an extreme gluten allergy, it’s nice to be able to eat anything without worrying about gluten-poisoning.

Mario Santos

Good spot for some seafood...great gluten free options!

Wonderful vegan cheese and thicker gluten free crust that has great flavor 🤩 The service is amazing. You will not find sweeter people to wait on you and answer all ypur questions. We will definitely be back! My husband got the chicago deep dish (regular style) and loved it! This was a great find.

I came here for my bday and the staff was absolutely wonderful! The food was mind blowing and I loved every moment at this place! When you put out good energy you get it back and this place was everything and more! I will be bringing everyone I know back especially cus its gluten and dairy free! Beautiful immersive top tier experience!

This place is great. I think if I didn't have to be gluten free it would be amazing. Since I am, I'm saying it was good/great. (Wish they had Tamari!) Beautiful restaurant interior. I don't love having to stand in line to order as sometimes the lines are really long but maybe it's different now that things are more open post pandemic. The outdoor booths are cute but I haven't sat in them yet. Drinks are excellent too!!

Charlie

solid gluten free crust. came during lunch rush for a to go order and almost didn't make it back to work in time. staff was incredible and very friendly. food was okay, high quality toppings. I'm a pretty huge snob about pizza so take this with a grain of salt

Jack Gentry

$7 upcharge for that gluten free cracker of a crust was insane. I couldn’t separate a piece or take a bite without the sparingly amount of toppings flying all over the table. Our server was dope tho

I keep walking by this spot and I finally went in to grab some of their brunch sandwiches to go. They had a really solid gluten free option for my partner and we liked it so much we went back for dinner! The empanadas were incredible and so many bonus points for the gluten free options. Will definitely be back!

I ordered from Eem on DoorDash after seeing they had a deal on there. I’d been dying to try this place for years but never made it happen. I felt bad because I ordered 2 minutes before orders closed for the night. I honestly wasn’t expecting super fresh or warm food (especially since it was delivery) and woooow was I so incorrect. The food was fresh, full of flavor, and still hot enough to not reheat. Worth every penny! I am also gluten free and LOVE that Eem is allergen friendly. The menu clearly states all allergens in the food so I didn’t have to guess or risk glutening myself. We ordered the BBQ fried rice, the green curry with vegetables & shredded pork, the sweet & sour fried chicken (not gluten free but got them for my partner and friend), and the Massaman curry with smoked lamb shoulder. Each item was delicious and 10/10 quality. The chicken pulled apart so nicely, it wasn’t overly breaded and you could tell that the ingredients are superb quality. We will be back to eat in the restaurant next time. The food is INCREDIBLE. You have to try this restaurant!!

I'd give more stars if I could! The staff was very kind, the restaurant was cute, and the food was absolutely incredible. I have celiac disease but there were tons of gluten free options (the gf pita was divine). I also accidentally left my phone in the booth after dinner, but they went out of their way to catch up to me and make sure I didn't leave it behind. A wonderful experience and I will definitely be back.

We've been ordering from Friendship Kitchen for several years. Their food and their service are always fantastic. Tonight we had the vegan phô, the shrimp crêpe and the tofu salad rolls. All were fantastic. The shrimp crêpes are really different, have an essence of coconut, and are very tasty (and our gluten-free). The vegan phô is chock full of vegetables and the broth is very flavorful. The bean sprouts, Thai basil and cilantro served with it were plentiful. We got this order for two people, and we have enough leftover for another meal.

Great ambiance | Great Service | Delicious Wow, it was our first time coming here. The whole aesthetic/ atmosphere is beautiful. I loved the colors and textures used. It’s very clean and organized. We were greeted and seated quickly. Our waitress was great and tended to our needs. We ordered miso soup, edamame, salmon flight sashimi, chicken skewers, Sapporo miso ramen without egg and gluten free noodles, and green tea. Miso soup was excellent and served at perfect temperature. Not salty and the seaweed was thicker than other places. They give more edamame than most places too! The Salmon sashimi was delicious and beautifully presented. The Sapporo Ramen was delicious! That broth was so good, not salty! Highly recommend this one, and if you want to add some spice, you can request the spicy version. The pork slices were perfect with not too much fat but full of flavor. Loved that the toppings were the right amount so that when you’re down to eating noodles, you still have enough corn and sprouts with every bite. We will be back. This is a great lunch and dinner spot in a good location.

We absolutely loved having our 55-person wedding at Bar Carlo. The owner Mel is at the same time very supportive and very low-key, which made for a smooth planning process and day-of event. The space is gorgeous, and has multiple connected wings, which allowed for the the party to morph seamlessly over the night from barside cocktail hour to outdoor patio ceremony to dinner buffet to dance floor. The space is already a beautifully decorated artwork, and Mel lets you decide how to arrange the space for your event, but you can also bring your own decorations/sound system/llama and she can handle those additions easily. 🙂 The food and drinks were delicious too, and Mel was able to accommodate our entirely vegan and gluten-free menu without hesitation. Overall we loved the unique-ness, flexibility and good vibes of the space and the people of Bar Carlo, and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a cute and fun space for their wedding or other event. -Nicola & Lou

If you’re looking to for unique, high quality Thai food - try this place. We were expecting a classic American Thai spot where we could order pad Thai etc - this place is not that- but we got so excited by the menu and ordered a handful of things. I would 100% recommend the Yum Som salad, Khao Mok Gai (chicken entree), Spicy Red Wine Tamarind Duck, and Taro Crème Brûlée (dairy and gluten free and amazing!). Looking forward to our next visit 😊

Great Brunch, loads of delicious food with so many gluten free options! We’ve had 2 little people and they really enjoyed as well!

Jason Edwin

This place is literally amazing. Some of the best fried chicken ever and it’s gluten free. I love it! Such a fair price as well, can’t recommend this place enough

Recently enjoyed HH on the gorgeous patio with friends! The food was wonderful! (Allergy friendly menu - gluten free, dairy free, etc), they have a great mocktail/zero proof drink options as well as beer/wine/cocktails/liquor.

Sharon Feliciano

Found this place by accident (hungry, picky teens and a quick Google search for "restaurants near me") There was something for everyone. Great charcuterie and cheese board for my husband and I (with gluten free accomodations) and entrees for the kids. Service was a bit on the slow side, but we weren't in a hurry.

I had gluten free empanadas that were very tasty and a taco that was great. They have bingo on Mondays. Naughty bingo in Spanish. Awesome 😂

Overall great experience! We had a party of 33 and had a VERY difficult time finding a restaurant that could take as many people and willing to accommodate the menu choices available. Every restaurant in town I called set up a food and drink menu and refused to deviate from it even if we knew we would like certain choices or had dietary issues (allergic, gluten, vegetarian etc). This was NOT the case at Irving Street Tapas. Paresh the restaurant manager went WELL BEYOND the call of duty to accommodate our large group and did a fantastic job getting everything aligned and setup. We were able to set a budget of what we wanted to spend and they recommended food and drinks to fit within that but still allowing us to modify if needed. As long as they are in business we will be making this our go to every year during this time.

I absolutely can not say enough good things about this restaurant!! I loved every bit of it. It feels nice and up scale as you walk in. Perfect for a nice date night. It has a beautiful blue mix tile floor with a dim lighting but is cozy but still had enough light to talk with my husband and read the menu. Our server was so knowledgeable about the menu and specials. I informed her that I was gluten-free. She gave me a lovely recommendation of sparkling wine to pear with my pork. The food is full of flavor. My husband and I ordered a little bit of everything, and every dish was more lovely than the next. We will most definitely be back! Thank you for everything ❤️
