Great place for breakfast and lunch! The employee was very helpful in explaining what menu items could be modified to be gluten free. Very generous portion sizes as well. I will definitely come back for dinner and to sit in the outdoor patio!
If I could write 0 stars on this place, I would. We sat down and immediately had a flat Pepsi, but no big deal I didn’t think much of it. Little did I know this was a sign of what was to come. We placed our order quickly with a sweet waitress and the dining room was almost empty. We waited over 45 mins for our food to come— the gluten free Margherita pizza was soggy and cold in certain areas. My boyfriend’s burger was dry, and supposed to come with bacon but didn’t, the fries were old and the ketchup had a weird caramelized taste to it, which was likely old too. We were so disappointed by this place. They ended up comping the margarita pizza which I ate two bites of. The table behind us was also complaining to the manager. Will never go back here again.
What a cozy, cool cafe. My girlfriends and I grab breakfast and lunch here often.
Fabulous food! Flaky crusted daily quiche packed with flavor at a very good price of $10 fans it is enough fir 2 people). freshly made avocado toast. Best ever chicken salad ( pecans,!).
Delectable crepes ( savory and sweet), muffins, sugar cookies. You name it.
Lots of table seating. Bar stools. Outdoor seating in ice weather.
Large selection of teas and coffees.
May vegetarian and gluten free options.
Cool gifts and mugs.

I love the variety of options Sprouts has for dietary restrictions--gluten free, non-dairy, vegetarian--and besides that they carry food that is just plain good. I eat non-dairy yogurt and Sprouts carries like six flavors of my favorite brand where other stores have one or two. The bulk food section is great too.
I've also been able to find vitamins and supplements that other stores don't carry thanks to their extensive vitamin department.
Phenomenal in every single way. I love the consistent high quality of the food. The buckwheat crepes are my favorite as I have a gluten sensitivity and dairy allergy. I love that the manager/owner is so “hands on” with his cafe. It’s very close to the Patapsco park so it’s great to go here before hiking. Really great dining experience in an age where great quality restaurant food is hard to find, everything is homemade and delicious.
my favorite sushi place in the area! so many good roll options. their cocktails are also always amazing. we got their hibachi recently and that was really good too. vegan, vegetarian, and gluten friendly.
We love Glory days because of it's extensive menu and delicious food. It is a place that has a gluten free menu that really makes it so there is something for everyone in our family.
I reached out to Katrina, the Sweet Benefits owner, via phone to discuss an order for gender reveal cupcakes. She kindly and thoroughly walked me through options, and directed me to her instagram page that was full of beautiful inspiration. Katrina was also open to inspiration pictures from other sources.
I emailed her with photos and descriptions of my vision, and her final product was absolutely gorgeous and exceeded all expectations! Sweet Benefits was even able to deliver the cupcakes for a small additional fee.
Not relevant for this order but personally, I am someone with dietary restrictions and knowing that Sweet Benefits accommodates vegan and gluten free is a HUGE plus in my book- it shows the business genuinely cares about being welcoming and inclusive.
I have already recommended Sweet Benefits to friends and family and will continue to do so- and go back for my sweets needs!
Best BBQ in the DMV. All the meats are great. Easy to eat gluten-free except (needlessly) for the cornbread. C'MON MISSION BBQ, it's *corn* bread, cut the gluten.Try the smoked turkey and the brisket (moist, NOT the lean, that gets dry). Friendly folks at ALL positions.
I didn't specifically rate the food, because it turns out I can't eat most of it and it doesn't seem fair to give them a low rating just because of my own sensitivities.
My date had a lamb dish that he said was "fine". Given that this was our first time trying Ethiopian food, he wasn't sure if he wasn't a huge fan of the specific cuisine or that specific dish. The vegan samosas were much spicier than anticipated, and the gluten free injera was extremely tangy compared to the regular injera (to the point that I really didn't like it but again that could be just me, but my date wasn't a fan either).
Service was good. Drinks were a bit slow to come out, but there was only one person working the customer side and she was serving restaurant customers as well as checking out grocery customers, so I think the slower service was due to her being stretched thin rather than inattention or lack of customer care.
The two of us probably won't be back, but only because this food is not really our thing. If you like Ethiopian food, it's probably a great place.
Good service, mediocre food. The staff were very attentive and kind. The menu & staff showed that they understood gluten free dishes; however, the dishes weren't quite as flavorful as other Thai restaurants. Given that the restaurant is tucked away in a shopping center with an Asian market, I expected more.
We loved our evening at Carrabba's. Eileen our server was spot on in every way. I am an old server and always appreciate good service! It was my husband's birthday as well and she was attentive to him and making it special. Also the manager was visible and checked on us. I have a gluten allergy too. All around great!
THANK YOU! (Ellicott City MD Carrabba's)
Entitlement with no taste.
Food was heavily salted and the garlic mash potatoes tasted only of garlic. No balance in the pallete. I was intrigued but let down by the blandness of the street corn. French onion soup, salty and plain. Garlic and cheese broccoli plain and salty. I will say we didnt have the opportunity to order an entree because we went to eat somewhere else. However, (Cody) the server was very polite. We sat down outside, the manager (Older Women) acted appalled we didn't have a reservation LOL... the other hostess (Dark curly hair) was expentionally kind. The rest of the staff I interacted with seemed entitled
Decent amount of gluten free options for appetizers, but not as many for entrées. (This is why we left)
Place seems like it's designed for older wealthy people to feel good while they over pay for their meal that tasted like it was made in a microwave oven.
For ... sakes a woman across from me dropped a fork and wait for the server to pick it up...
My brother is a classically trained French cuisine chef, and I am by no means comparing the food to his, but if I did I wouldn't ever step in this place again.
We are regulars here for a reason. The food is always great and the service is fantastic. Highly recommend! (Also good for gluten free options if that’s important to you — it is to us.)
Went here to get some work done and was pleasantly surprised! Their waffles are gluten free but more of a banana bread than a typical Belgian. They also had a gluten-free red velvet cake in the case that I look forward to trying one day. Plus they have açaí bowls! I will definitely be coming back as gluten free cafes are so hard to come by.
Such a lovely shop with gluten free options, amazing honeys, boutique salsas, amazing wool socks, ect., bath bombs, soaps, local frozen meats, cheese, fresh veggies and fruits, chocolates, candies, and so much more.
Such a delight to shop there!!
Staff is warm and welcoming 💛
I literally had the worst pizza today that I have ever had and I mean that sincerely. The crust was their 10” gluten free option (vs. cauliflower) and the first time the pizza came, the center was doughy and cold. I sent it back and asked if they could cook it a little more, came back with the vegetables all crisped up but center still doughy. The Maitre D tried to tell me that all wood fired pizza’s have soft centers. Really? How does the pizza go into a wood fired oven and everything gets done but the center? I don’t think so, my friend. Other choices to eat in this shopping center, will not be trying Facci’s again.
This location does not know gluten free procedure. The employees look at you like your speaking a foreign language when you say this order is for someone with a gluten allergy. The employees also have an attitude the entire time they’re making a gluten free order. The staff is also extremely slow. On top of all this, they are always out of something. This review is not based on one trip, but many and is an overall snapshot of this location.
lots of room to spread out and plenty of tables around. beers and one gluten free seltzer. just Food trucks - there aren't any vegan food options, a few gluten free and some veggie sides. there are some animals on the property but they're off to the side.
Food was excellent! Super authentic. Huge menu, lots of great choices. They can even accommodate gluten sensitive customers. Nice ambiance, great decor.

One of the best bubble teas in Howard county! I’m so happy I was able to be accommodated for my gluten and dairy allergy. The staff were super knowledgeable about what I could possibly get. I will definitely be coming back!
I have been coming here for years and have also used their catering on a few occasions. It is delicious Italian Food and the service is great. They do have a few gluten free options as well. But if you indulge in gluten - try the "cheese bread" appetizer - it is garlicy and delicious!! I go there sometimes just to get this as a takeout item. They have nice specials too. You can also make reservations here which is really nice. Just be forewarned that they close a little on the early side - or at least earlier than most restaurants.
Amazing homemade gourmet food in a family-owned bistro. I met the chef at an event he catered, and was impressed by his food and his friendly attitude. I came and had a quiet, delicious lunch on a quiet day and really enjoyed it.
My next visit was during the Wizarding Weekend, which found Old Town Ellicott City overrun with Harry Potter®️ fans. Cozy’s was jammed, with a line out the door, but they gamely soldiered on and got food out as quickly as they could. Everything I’ve had there has been excellent from omelettes, to hamburgers, to salads, to their homemade macaroons.
I also have a gluten allergy, and have had no trouble eating at Cozy’s.
They seem located a little out of the way, right at the bottom of Old Town, just before the bridge, but they are next to the best parking area.
I plan to return often. Highly recommended!
