DELICIOUS!!! The flavor was mouthwatering! TOTALLY GLUTEN FREE TOO! First time I’ve had a quesadilla on a small tortilla in years no dining out. Highly recommended.

This is a really solid happy hour spot in the neighborhood! If you’re looking to stay gluten-free or are hanging with somebody who is GF, I’d recommend Bivouac. The space is really cool; feels like a camping lodge! Lots of warm wood, climbing ropes, etc. The meatballs and polenta bites were flavorful, delicious, reasonably priced and portioned, & had strong sauce/dip-pairings. Service was okay. Not super attentive, and the flight took over 10 minutes to come out, which was weird, since the place wasn’t that busy. They ignored us a bit once some influencers showed up, meh. Watch out for the pricing on the cider flights! (Meaning, there IS no listed price… think it was like $18 each? For 3 tasters.) The hummus/crudites appetizer is underwhelming, as the veggies could be cut less coarsely, and the hummus was disarmingly minty (and not enough for all the dipping objects).

Omg An’s Gelato is AMAZING. They start off by taking you on a “flavor tour” where you sample all of their flavors (about 6. They rotate their flavors every couple of weeks). Most flavors are gluten free, but let them know you have an allergy because they do have an occasional flavor that isn't GF. The staff is very knowledgeable. They even make their own GF waffle cones and occasionally GF cookies and breads that they mix into their flavors. I'm not kidding when I say that you will get HOOKED on this place. The first time I tasted their Canvas flavor (olive oil and rosemary with black salt- i know it sounds weird, but TRUST ME) it transported me to another dimension of complete bliss and euphoria with no worries in the world. It's no surprise that this place was awarded #1 Best Gelato/ ice cream in the country. The lines are always long- so expect to wait over 30 minutes on any given day. But it is worth the wait. They also have a location in Del Mar called An’s Hatmakers, and a location inside Petco Park called An's Athletic Field Services.

So you want/need a place with spacious, calming ambiance inside seating, as well as outside seating? You need to bring 15 friends?, well, they got you with plenty of room! ~Or maybe you meet one friend but have three hour’s worth of catching up to do? ~This is The Place! ~Where they have amazing vegan, gluten free donuts with chocolate frosting that tastes like a 5 star Michelin Bakery, haha!! Or maybe a beyond perfect raspberry square with a light buttery shortbread dough and perfection on the crumble topping which is not overly sweet that would please your Scottish Grandmom? How about awesome sandwiches, great toasted and cream cheese bagels, or Topo Chico if you don’t want coffee or tea?? AND Kind and cheerful waitstaff~Yes! We have been to many, many coffee shops/cafes around SD! So many seem to get their baked goods from Bread and Cie, which is ok, but super repetitive! I cannot say enough about this place. It is That Great! You will not be disappointed! Lastly there is a super cool little plant nursery that has wonderful succulent plants among others! There are also nice art cards and a small selection of gifts offered there! Enjoy!!

Actually came here for Yelp event and took an order to go. It was just the plain Buttermilk Pancakes and Whipped Mascarpone topping. I actually wanted the red velvet pancakes but they don't have those to go to avoid any cross-contamination on their griddles at the back. The custom flavors are only available for stove top. To go orders were for gluten-free or buttermilk pancakes only. That said I actually really loved even those buttermilk pancakes so I can only imagine how good the red velvet must be! Just the right amount of sweet and I didn't even need to add any toppings on it. Mascarpone was perfectly smooth and delicious on its own as well. Really looking forward to coming here and making my own pancakes sometime soon.
