We had a reservation on Friday night just the two of us. We were sat at a 2 top near the bar. Our waitress was nice and greeted us quickly. We came here specifically for their GF menu. If you have Celiac you CANNOT eat here, things listed GF are all cooked in a shared fryer and on the same surfaces as their pizzas. I tried to get clarification and got very unsure and vague answers from our server. In the end we waited over an hour for a house salad and roasted cauliflower, they only thing that seemed somewhat safe. I should have followed my gut and left after the menu discussion, but they already had $40 from the online booking and I figured a house salad was safe. Maybe they wouldn't have charged us the $40 no show, but at that point the place was loud, smokey, and we were ready to leave and discussion seemed like another awkward conversation. Long story short, if you have Celiac there are many other places in the area you can safely eat that you don't have to yell over the restaurant noise.
*Since I cannot respond to the managers post I will edit mine. The server stated to us that there was NO dedicated G/F fryer. We didn't make that assumption. It was the first question we asked. I would wait hours for safe G/F food had that been known. It wasn't a matter of us being impatient.
This store sells a multitude of allergy-friendly foods and snacks. Though more expensive, I recommend it for the variety of vegan and gluten free available items. It was my favorite grocery store while we stayed in Princeville.
The staff are passionate about quality, deliciousness, and customer care. We enjoyed a lively and detailed discussion about the crust ingredients and baking process. They accommodated our time needs. I have gluten sensitivity and did not notice adverse effects. Yumminess. We really enjoyed the Bianca pizza.
Stopped in during a rainy day and had some delicious acai bowls!! They have gluten free granola, fresh fruit, smoothies, bowls, and coffee. I forgot to take a picture because I ate it so quickly. 100% would recommend! The gals working also had great advice on beaches and things to do around the north shore.
Note: Parking is a little weird, and you may need to park on the side of the road. The store's interior is cozy/small and you might need to wait outside if it is busy.
Would love to visit again at a less hectic time. Long line, some inconsiderate customers claiming tables before they ordered (but no signage saying not to), and some of the music unsuitable for families, and with bass levels turned way up. Just need a different mix.
That's said, staff was mostly pleasant, interior was bright and modern, food was great - avocado toast for one of us and Croi-sean-wich for the other. Gluten-free options very limited - just a GF toast substitution option. May not be a safe place for celiacs. We'd happily go again when it's not so busy
Ate lunch and dinner here with family of 6. Burgers were extraordinary. Try the jacked up fries with ponzu sauce and seeds. If gluten free, request meat patty without marinade (all patties marinaded in terriyaki). Fries in shared fryer. Usually crowded. Son reported the loco moco was best on the island. Most seating outside. Highly recommend.
