My absolute favorite restaurant! The most delicious food, the safest for people with celiac, the kindest staff, the best vibes, most amazing happy hour! I couldn’t recommend a place more!
We have been to Charlie's multiple times and always enjoyed delicious food, great drinks, and awesome service each time. I wanted to specifically highlight that this an amazing place to go for people with food allergies. We went a few weekends ago with my MIL and our family, and we had made a reservation ahead of time that noted my MIL's significant food allergies (corn, gluten, wheat, and dairy). Before we came, they did extra cleaning of the restaurant to avoid cross-contamination and management had briefed the team and our waiter on her allergies. When we arrived they had a special menu prepared for her with all the items she could eat so we didn't have to ask about every one. We ordered lots of food and we all loved our dishes. As each dish came out the waiter noted which had allergens and which didn't so we could easily make sure she got what she needed. She had no reactions and said it was one of the best meals she's ever had. Thank you so much Charlie's for making this so special for us! We will be coming back every time she visits.
The food and whole experience was like a spiritual experience!!
As a person with celiac disease I have one had fried chicken once and it was not anywhere close to being as delicious as the fried chicken sandwich I got here! I also got the fried provolone cheese wheel. YALL!!! 10/10. My gluten eating best friend was as blown away as I was! She said it was the best food PERIOD that she's had in a long time! Would recommend!!
They take allergies and celiac very seriously here. Although the menu is not marked, you can ask them what is gluten-free. I'm majority of the entrées are. And they have a dedicated fryer and some of the best fries we have ever had. It is one of our go to places and we feel very safe coming here. They've got great protocols in place.
I cannot recommend this restaurant to anyone with allergies. My best friend has severe gluten and mushroom allergies, so we were excited to try this fully gluten-free spot. We informed the waitress about her allergies, but it became clear they were not taken seriously. After eating tortilla chips, we were later told the fryer was used for mushrooms—a major cross-contamination issue.
The situation escalated as we anxiously waited to see if an epi-pen or ambulance was necessary. The waitress apologized, but the manager hovered awkwardly, making excuses instead of giving us space to handle the situation. Their poor handling of a life-threatening allergy made an already frightening experience worse. If you have food allergies, avoid this place.
Went on a Thursday night and sat in the patio. Music was playing. They have happy hour till 7. Great 3 dollar tacos. And a huge portion of the menu is dairy, gluten free or both. Really delicious food
Great service and food. The spicy guacamole is delicious and the dirty veg tacos are great! Our favorite by far though was the mango Panna cotta paired with passionfruit sorbet. Amazing! The outside seating area is lovely! they also have lots of gluten-free options!
Absolutely amazing experience, food, and service!!! Me and my family a few times before and each time has been great. I personally have celiac disease meaning I can have gluten and they are super accommodating, I have never gotten sick, and they don’t up-charge for gluten free substitutions. The portions are gigantic and for meat and pasta dishes you definitely get your moneys worth. Although they are on the pricey side 10/10 across the board and we will be having leftovers for a while :)
I am a new lover of Veda! After coming here with a friend over the weekend I decided to return for lunch this week. I was so happy to find out they had specials for restaurant week!
The fish pakora was so good I literally wrote home to mom about it! As someone with dietary restrictions finding a place to eat can be hard, but Veda has loads of clearly labeled gluten free options. Their fish is sumptuous and flavorful. I also got the fish moylee and the sauce was so good I could swim in it! I totally enjoyed everything I had. Everything tasted very fresh, flavorful, and delicious.
Apart from the food the service was wonderful. My waiter was kind and attentive at every point throughout my meal. It’s great when food tastes good and even better when service stands out. My waiter, Khemraj, was so kind and helpful I will make it a point to stop by again sometime this week when he is working. Do yourself a favor a stop by Veda. Whether you’re by yourself, on a date, or with a friend- you’ll be glad you did!
This place is a Blast!!! So many games to choose from. It's great to run through a bunch of old classics, or to try a new game before you buy it. When we asked for a particular game they didn't have, they actually went next door to their game shop and opened a brand new game for us! The service really is top notch. And the food! So many amazing comfort food options, and with a huge vegan and gluten free selection too. The drinks are fantastic as well. It's a bit pricey but the fun is worth it and so we keep going back again and again
We’re in town for a tournament and this place did not disappoint! I’m gluten intolerant, and the owner is also gf so I was able to enjoy Thai calamari, flatbreads, and crabcakes- all gluten free, AND my family (not gf) enjoyed it as well! Services was top notch, definitely coming back here when I’m in Hershey next!
If you want the perfect GF experience in Greensburg, El Diablo is it! Their food is amazing and I always know that it’s safe. They are so creative with their menu and their staff is well educated on allergy protocol. A must-visit when you’re in town!

Food, service and atmosphere were all great and my celiac daughter was well taken care of. I'm giving 3 stars because we went on mother's day and they were taking reservations. But the online wait-list nor anywhere else online that we saw said so. So we joined the wait-list which said 10-20 min but it was really 45min. They really needed to take the wait-list offline and post they are taken reservations for that day.
Edit:
Thanks for the response, good to see you pay attention to customer feedback, I gave you another star for the followup.
Food was delicious as always! Bridgette took great care of us and they were very accommodating of our baby guest with us! Plenty of yummy gluten free options as well
Davio's, located at King of Prussia Town Center, led by General Manager Michael Dombkoski and culinary expert Chef/Restaurateur Steve DiFillippo, offers a refined Northern Italian Steakhouse experience. The menu boasts seasonally inspired creations, handmade pastas, fresh salads, and prime steaks, complemented by an impressive wine selection, including the esteemed 2016 Promontory, Napa Valley. Our meal commenced with a rare Gluten Free bread offering, followed by outstanding appetizers, a filet mignon smothered in crab meat Oscar, accompanied by large Sea Scallops, cooked to perfection. You need to try the Affogato – Stracciatella Gelato, Salted Caramel, Fazenda Cold Brew Coffee, Biscotti . They even have Valet parking !!
The food is SO GOOD. They have many gluten free options and great drinks including mocktails. The service is always attentive and kind. Highly recommend!
The staff are very knowledgeable about gluten, cross contact, and celiac! (I’ve heard that the owner has celiac.) Great food, lots of GF options, the menu is well-labeled, and the atmosphere is great (indoor and outdoor seating)! They also have delicious GF desserts. This restaurant is my go-to.

Very celiac friendly! When I ordered gluten free bread for my sandwich, they immediately asked if I wanted them to make it in a separate part of the kitchen. The food is delicious, there are lots of options, and I’ve always felt very safe eating there.
Do yourself a favor and GO EAT AT THIS RESTAURANT! Third visit yesterday was even better than the first two times :) Sat upstairs again and enjoyed the breeze from the opened doors.
Special shout outs to Heidi, our server; to Amato (sorry if I spelled your name wrong); and to the chef. The food is SO good (wish I would have ordered more to take home) and the service flawless. Heidi was attentive, professional, friendly, and her advice on food choices was spot on.
We had the grilled Romaine salad (we will ALWAYS order this incredibly delicious salad); two of the specials: Red Pepper Soup with Shrimp and fried Spinach (not a drop left in our bowls) and the Seared Scallops with Asparagus and Risotto (scallops were cooked to perfection and the pesto and spicy chili sauces were perfectly balanced); and steamed clams in bread bowl (plus gluten-free bread for two of us —which Heidi encouraged us to try after we said there is no good GF option for bread. It was great!)
So go, you’ll be happy :)
I’ve been to V-SPOT a few times now and I really, really want to like it. I love supporting 100% vegan places and, on paper, this looked like a great find. But it is overpriced, the food is hit-or-mix, and they are ridiculously inflexible. Here’s the good, bad, and the ugly from my last visit (Mother’s Day weekend brunch):
The good: my dish (a vegan take on eggs benedict) was excellent, and my mother’s Tex-Mex style scrambled tofu was also quite good. The ambiance was great; we sat outside and it was a lovely day to soak in the sunshine, enjoy the breeze, and take in some people-watching on the bustling Main Street.
The bad: my daughter ordered the brunch-special crepe for her entree…. At $24, we expected a nice big crepe, with plenty of decadent toppings and nice sides like fresh cut fruits, compote, etc. What she got was a tiny crepe with vegan whipped cream and a drizzle of chocolate sauce. Our local crepe place has ONE vegan and gluten free option and it’s still better than this overpriced dud. My wife’s ban-mih was so bland and flavorless that it should’ve called a ban-mid or a ban-meh. (To add insult to injury, Sprig and Vine — located two minutes away — serves the best vegan ban-mih I’ve ever eaten.) Bottom-line: for food that is this overpriced, it is unacceptable that half of the dishes we ordered were mediocre.
The ugly: the brunch price was advertised as included one glass of champagne (“two of you ask nicely” said the menu) per person. Nobody in my family drinks alcohol, so we politely asked if they could replace the champagne with literally any other drink so that we could also have the experience of a fun MD brunch beverage. Literally anything— juice, sparkling cider, even seltzer. They refused saying “we don’t allow for substitutions”. When I tried explaining the situation, they again just reiterated (like a robot): we can’t do substitutions. They “helpfully” pointed us towards their iced coffee offerings and mocktail menu and told us we could order something from there (gee thanks for pointing out that I could order something on your menu); we got coffees while my mom ordered a $12 mocktail. It was Mother’s Day— they could have easily said, “since you are not having the champagne, we’ll just comp HER drink…” That could have been a thoughtful gesture and showed some human understanding. Nope. They could have brought us out some apple juice, or heck even some bubbly mineral water, in the champagne glasses. Nope. A comped slice of cake for dessert? Nope. Nothing. No offer to do anything and no flexibility. By the end of the meal, I was so annoyed that I decided — on principle — to have the champagnes that were supposed to be included in our brunch sent to other patrons so that we could at least have the satisfaction of someone enjoying them. I spied a table of two older couples who didn’t seem to have ordered the brunch special, and asked our server to deliver our champagnes to them with our compliments. Guess what? No dice. She said that they couldn’t do that either, citing some policy about not sending alcohol to other people’s tables. And then, the kicker— she says to me: “Don’t worry, sir. I can assure you that we won’t let the champagne go to waste.” Ohhhhh, I’m so happy to find out that the champagne I PAID FOR as part of my meal will be dutifully used (resold) to other patrons of the restaurant. Whew, what a relief! (I was actually tempted to ask her to bring the champagne to our table and then have her watch me as I poured each glass down into the flowerbed near our table… But even I couldn’t muster up that much pettiness.)
The verdict: we probably won’t return. There are better vegan places nearby. I could forgive the overpricing were it not for the inflexibility and lack of awareness around customer service.

Bernie was a fun, knowledgeable, and vibrant server. He went out of his way to make sure my family was taken care of. I was so nice to have gluten free and vegetarian options. My tea came out in a beautiful teapot and my husbands old fashioned came out smoking! The atmosphere was so romantic and my son ate every bite of his favorite orange chicken! They brought out a sparkler with the biggest slice of chocolate cake for my birthday! Overall a wonderful memory and experience. I look forward to coming back!
This was my first taste of Sedona. I ordered takeout for lunch- Thai shrimp, sweet potato fries, and Acapulco tacos. The food was delicious and filling! And I was THRILLED about the extent and variety of gluten free options. It's so hard to find a delicious variety of gluten free options at restaurants. Thank you for your service Sedona, I salute you. And I'll definitely be back!

I had ordered a Philadelphia Maki, I asked that the cucumbers be removed and replaced with avocado. In response they have me a maki with just avocado. The rest of the food was nice. They’re gluten free options is a lot smaller then the normal menu as well.
The gluten free muffin was fantastic and fresh, the cold brew was nice and strong, the service was SUPER fast despite the rush and the baristas were nice.

My go to for great gluten free pizza. They take my needs very seriously and the staff are delightful. Gluten free food is hand delivered by managers so you know they're on top of it.
Great dinner. I only wish they had more selection for a gluten free options. I'm glad to still be able to eat outside.
Another awesome meal, this time inside. Jenn is an amazing server and always a pleasure to see!
Went here mainly because they have gluten free buns available for the burgers. They have a good selection of burgers and sides. Overall it was a great atmosphere and one of the best places to eat in Manayunk. One area of improvement would be to put more toppings on the junkyard tots. They were room temperature when they came out, so the cheese was barely melted (although they still tasted delicious).
Amazing restaurant with gluten free options. The cocktails were delicious, and the atmosphere was unbeatable. I would recommend a reservation if you plan to go.
If it is a date night for 2, going forward I would have split the salad with my fiance, but we each got our own and it was delicious. We will be back again in the summer to see that menu.
Gluten free options available. Staff is knowledgeable about cross-contamination.
Great food, great service, and great conversation with the owner. Love that they have a Gluten Free Menu and my burger was amazing. Even better was the cheese curds!
Impressed with the huge number of dishes that are gluten free. Prosciutto wrapped mozzarella was ridiculously good! Delicious dinner. Knowledgeable waiter helped us pick the perfect meals and wine. Lovely space, but it becomes incredibly loud once the dinner rush hits at 545. Glad that we took the 5pm reservation as it was so much easier to have a conversation. Will definitely go back!
We had Mike and he was fabulous! He was very familiar with gluten-free options, gave us opinions on “fan favorites”. He was soooooo good…fast, attentive and gave great recommendations!!
