If you want amazing fried fish, check this place out. I haven’t had fried fish since I was diagnosed with Celiac (about 6 years ago). It was amazing. A nice crispy light batter made with brown rice flour. It was great!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Cupcake heaven with a serious espresso game!” Omg — I’m obsessed! Their espresso is incredible — seriously, way smoother and richer than Starbucks. You can tell they use a higher-quality grind. The brownie was next-level, super fudgy and flavorful. What really stood out to me is how inclusive they are — they offer vegan and gluten-free options that actually taste amazing. And don’t even get me started on the cupcake selection.

The menu mentions asking about gluten-free options, so I asked what was gluten-free. The answer, “everything”. They have gluten-free toast, French toast, and waffles! They also have sugar-free syrup! Having a wheat allergy and being diabetic usually means I have to be very selective. I was amazed at how accommodating this restaurant is. The food was amazing and Phillip was an excellent server!

I love Simon’s! I’ve been going for years and the food is always amazing! I always go for any vegan specials and the soups are always delicious and unique! I also never leave without a dessert for later! Such a great variety of vegan, gluten free and other items! A huge bonus is that their entire team is incredible! Local- family owned- great options- check them out!

100/10, absolutely excellent. Especially if you have Celiac and have to be gluten free -- they have GOT YOU. This is one of the largest gluten free menus I've ever been able to order from that wasn't a dedicated GF restaurant. We got the drunken shrimp, chicken risotto, and smores budino, and it was so good! There were five or six GF deserts I could've chosen too, which is unheard of. The gluten free bread alone won me over. It was so incredible, even my husband loved it. The wine is delicious -- we joined the wine club and got the seasonal dragonfruit sangria, as well as the white sangria. Highly recommend!! Bonita at the wine tasting bar took care of us, she has the best personality and laugh, such a joy. 🥰 Give this woman a raise! Also Casey W, our waitress, for the great service and taking care of my GF needs. We had such a great experience, we definitely recommend. Top 3 restaurant in the Tampa/St. Pete/Saraota area for us.

Fountain of youth discovered! Run do not walk to this hidden gem on Stickney Point and Gateway in Sarasota. If I could’ve bought the place out I would’ve! Check out all the awesome REAL food here full of organic, gluten free, vegan, GMO free, plant based life nourishing fuel. This place has figured out the perfect blend of go to recipes and local vendor medley that can almost replace your grocery store. Try the drive thru for a quick pick up of plant based hot and cold drinks, gluten free donuts and awesome shots to pump your day like elderberry and anti inflammatory. When you head inside you’ll be super stoked to find a treasure trove of the coolest food and treats around. My whole family has health issues that we are tackling by plugging into this healthy local family owned business committed to helping people heal. Just started replacing our not so healthy shelves with these health packed goodies and sure enough it doesn’t get better than hearing our family say hey pick me up some of that Crop stuff! Woot!!!! When your fam feels good you feel good, just can’t say enough about this place. Ask for Tyler he’s the guru on anything you need help with totally cool vibe and will steer you to just the right items for you and your family. CROP you ROCk! I think I’m going to need a monthly subscription plan, what do ya say CROP?!! Sign me up!

My wife, 2 six year old girls and myself waited 25 minutes in line that was out to the curb. The chalk board had gluten free flavors and dairy free flavors. Once we got up to order we were told they were out of dairy free. They had been out for hours. Try telling your 6 year old who is allergic to dairy who was excited for about a half hour about ice cream she can't have any. What's the point of an updated menu if it's not marked. Do better and let the people at the curb know what's available.

Wow this place has A LOT of gluten free options with their unique ice cream flavors. I was helped today by Lori and she was super nice explained all the different flavors for me and gave me lots of samples to help me choose. I will be coming back this is my favorite ice cream spot now! Thank you for the delightful treat and service!

The atmosphere .The bartender, the food, and the drinks were all phenomenal Fourth time there this year . The gluten-free chocolate cake was to die for. And the person I went with was the best time of all💙💙

Used to love this place but lately it’s been on the decline. There is too much competition in the area for this to happen. Step up your game or I’ll have to stick with ONLY the gluten free cheese cake option…I don’t think they can mess that up!
