Excellent vibes, amazing lattes, and delicious gluten free food. Unfortunately the service was so slow that it ruined the whole experience for me. Maybe it will be better next time.
Literally never had a meal at Black Rooster we didn’t love. At this point I have tried everything on the menu and it’s all delicious. There are great vegan, vegetarian and even gluten free options on the menu so there’s something for literally everyone! My kids love it, too.

One of my favorite restaurants in Orlando. I have a gluten allergy and they always take wonderful care of me. Everything is delicious although I LOVE the crispy chicken. The salsa is also out of this world.
Sushi tasted old, especially bad when considering the high cost. They did have gluten free soy sauce, which I appreciated, but I still wouldn’t go back. My husband got food poisoning. The staff were very nice.
They purposely put a noodle in my Gluten Free steamed edamame after I chose it off of the gluten free menu online. I just got out of the hospital and had a major abdominal surgery. I literally just wanted to eat some safe real food without vomiting it back up or having full body pain and histamine reactions. I have celiac disease and a wheat allergy; I dont know if they thought it would be funny to hide a noodle in the GF edamame, but if I have to go back to the hospital, I promise it will not be funny for them. I have eaten here previously and been fine but the employees on shift today, 5/9/25, around noon did not take the gluten free protocols seriously.
Wonderful yakatori grill and bar to hang out and eat good food. Bartender made me a delicious mocktail, he's more of a mixologist I'd say. The marinade for the yakatori is gluten-free, so I could eat all of the wonderful flamed meats and veggies.
Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. I have Celiac disease and often have a hard time finding a place to eat.
This was amazing. I did a pork and rice plate. I will admit after living in Hawaii I miss hulihuli chicken and I could not have the hula chicken as it was not gluten free. My husband got it and said it was yummy.
The chairs and seating could be more comfortable but the food is sooo good-
!
This is the BEST priced pizza that's also really delicious! Some places trade one for the other. Either good price and meh pizza or great pizza at a meh price. I had a half and half 13-inch pizza for 9.96 before tax that was super tasty. I also tried their Stromboli that was super cheesy with light pepperoni, and it was great! They also have gluten-free options as well. The only downside is that there are no 2 liters for drinks, but its not a deal breaker considering all the beverage options they do have. You watch them make your food right in front of you, and the toppings are almost endless and moderately priced. The location is great. It's right near the water and close to the library and publix. There's even outdoor seating. Bathrooms are clean, and the staff is super friendly! I would definitely recommend anyone who even likes pizza a little bit to come visit here. This may be my favorite spot in Orlando!
This place was amazing! The food was amazingly fresh and flavorful!! (staff said it was house made pastas) very cute atmosphere as well and our server Nicole was very knowledgeable, cautious, and aware of making sure our allergies were taken care of:)) (gluten, dairy, tree nuts)
Have been to this place twice in the past 6 months and their service and food is the same. The food tastes really good, there are a lot of vegetarian options and even a gluten free menu. The drinks are reasonably priced. Yesterday, I was served by the waitress named Maya, even if it was closing time she was patient and friendly, explaining the vegetarian menu very clearly to me, so I don't end up eating any meat. Overall, I highly recommend this place if you're looking for tasty Asian street food.
Visited in November 2023 for dinner. Experience was fabulous overall. Drinks were solid, I had a couple sangria, and my wife had a variations a Moscow Mule.
Food, we had an Argentinian Chorizo appetizer (that came out after our dinners), that was very tasty. Wife had a trout dish with asparagus, she said it was VERY good. I had the lasagna, and i exaggerate NOT when I say it was the BEST lasagna I have ever had in my life!! It was rather moderately priced too, added bonus.
Restaurant is in a quiet residential area, lo-key unique surroundings. We actually could walk to restaurant from where we stayed, but it didn’t look like parking would be difficult.
Dessert was a very unique looking and tasting pumpkin crème brule. Wife really liked it, I was a bit ambivalent towards it.
Also, someone on staff has a good music ear because they play some solid music while you dine.
My wife is gluten free, and while they did have a couple of options on the menu, it would have been nice to see more.
Would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone.
I had the best experience, so safe for those with allergies! I have gluten and lactose intolerances. They have an extensive allergen chart online, as well the menu is clearly marked GF. Their own website says to please ask to speak to a manager about allergies, which I did. His name is Jerry and he kept an eye on my ticket himself, and knew everything about the menu. I had a mixed green salad with cilantro vinaigrette, salted baked potato (so good!), and a NY strip steak (one of the best I’ve ever had). Being lactose intolerant, the typical steak was not safe for me because of the marinade/shared wood grill, so Jerry had them sear my steak separately, simply seasoned, and finished in the convection oven. I was worried it wouldn’t be great, but I was so wrong! I will definitely be back. Sometimes the servers aren’t super knowledgeable, so always ask for the manager and you’ll be fine.
It's alright, pretty expensive for some average tacos. Not many gluten free or vegan options. "Asian fusion" part was alright I guess. Recommend getting a burrito if you want the price to be worth it. Yuca fries were dense, felt like they were just air fried from the freezer
Wow. We started our clean eating journey in February and while it's easy when I cook at home it can be challenging to eat out, especially at vegan places. Vegan restaurants are reliably dairy free, but their menus tend to have a lot of starches, gluten, sugar - all things I have to watch. The minute we walked in and Luc greeted us with her sunny smile we knew Earthy Picks was going to be different.
I told Luc what I needed and she recommended the All Day Breakfast Burrito as a bowl. I don't know how to describe just how incredibly delicious this dish is. The expertly massaged kale was covered with a generous amount of warm Colombian style tofu perico (scrambled with tomato & green onion). It was so flavorful and so eggy we had to remind ourselves it was vegan. Just delicious. As we dug further - past the yummy pink sauce, the warm tofu, the tender kale - we discovered a plentiful schmear of black bean puree. It was just fantastic.
Earthy Picks is now on our “must do” list for whenever we visit Orlando.
Our server Elvis was great and knowledgeable about the menu and allergies.
I do think it’s strange that gluten free noodles are offered but none of the broths are gluten free. At least one gluten free broth would suffice.
The only gluten free options are edamame and white rice.
If you have gluten free Japanese vodka, it’s possible to make a broth.
This place is absolutely amazing. The food is so good, so well constructed and presented, and the waiting staff is knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The sake selection is impressive and the food options are many and varied. You can eat here if you're diabetic, vegetarian, gluten intolerant, lactose intolerant, vegan, or even just plain picky. Go and enjoy, you will not be sorry.
We visited this place for the first time yesterday and were pleasantly surprised to find all their gluten free options very well labeled inside their display case + when we asked we learned that all items not explicitly listing wheat in the description are gluten free - which is nearly everything. I only wish they'd mentioned that more clearly online, because we would have visited sooner. It's a rare gem to find so many options both vegan and gluten free, it was hard to choose!
We ordered the veggie & tofu pho, Banh Canh pho with udon noodles, Bun Bi amazing veggie vermicelli noodles, and Hu Tieu Xao sweet potato noodle stir fry + several items from the display case. Everything was beautifully made, fresh, delicious, and reasonably priced. We will definitely visit again!

The food wasn’t bad. I had the duck, but man it was salty. She has the salmon and she said it was very good. Unfortunately they DO NOT have gluten free pasta. They’ll give you some options but then you get tasteless red potatoes. NO gluten free dessert. Their smoked old fashion was very good. It’d be nicer if the waiter would leave the lid on my drink that way, I would have had time to take a cool picture.
Visiting from Australia this is the second occasion I've been to Pho Vinh. Once in 2024 and again in 2025. With the exception of myself the rest of our group is Vietnamese. The eleven of us all enjoyed our meal. As a vegan I had Mì căn xào sả ớt. No gluten was available but was substituted with tofu. A dish with lots of flavour served with rice. Wherever I can get it I have the salty lemon drink Chanh muối. The only downside to our visit was the long waiting time from placing our order and receiving our meals. We received an apology. Father's Day made the restaurant more popular than usual. I guess the popularity is a sign in itself.
This place is good pizza place. Ordered several times from here and not disappointed so far. I'd offer *14-16 gluten free as well since they already offer *12.
Drinks were amazing and cheap, and service was quick! Our server Meralyz was amazing - she not only noticed our burger wasn’t prepared right, but went ahead and took initiative to fix it, gave us a discount on the burger for the mistake, and even was thorough enough to notice we’d been upcharged for a gluten free bun when we didn’t get one, so she removed it without being asked. I’ve rarely had a server so attentive to detail - thank you, Meralyz! I wish I could have afforded to tip you $50!

Called ahead to inform them of gluten allergy, they were able to make baked corn chips ahead of time for us. I had the ceviche and al pastor tacos. Most of the menu was able to be modified to be safe!
Great place! I went this weekend and they were testing out a new gluten free crust - it was incredible!! The waitress was lovely in helping us with what was gluten free. The pistachio panacatta dessert was also so good - creamy and delicious!

This was honestly a very disappointing place to visit. We had high hopes looking at the menu but everything sucked about this place. Starting with the food, nothing had any flavor or seasoning. Everything tasted like absolutely nothing and bland and disgusting. My best friend also has celiacs and when asking about items on the menu the only answer the staff could give us was “I dont know”. We asked three different people the same question, “what makes the fries not gluten free”, a basic and simple question and each person just said yeah i don’t know. No one said oh lemme ask my manager or a cook or anything they just stood there and said i don’t know and ran off. The service was trash. We sat at the bar hoping to get a drink while waiting for our table and the entire staff ignored us for 20 minutes until we asked if we could get service at the bar. The guy behind the bar said omg i didn’t see you guys there I got distracted making a drink. Mind you he was making the drink in front of us literally the entire time. We were right in front of the drink week and no one else was at this bar. There were also probably 12 tables sat in this restaurant for the amount of staff they had on that is literally nothing. Then the host walked us to a dirty table with 3 chairs for a party of 4. Like that’s nothing I just find it weird that they didn’t clean the area and put the chair there before walking us over there. The host was a very personable and friendly girl with cute passion twist. Our server Fernanda was trash. She kept running away from the table, couldn’t answer any dietary questions, and our food came out before the drinks did which we ordered 20 minutes prior to ordering our food. We had to keep flagging her down to get things bc she refused to come check on us. I used to be a server and I know how hard it can be sometimes but she was purposely ignoring us. Checking on all the tables around us but avoiding us when we were waiting 45 min in a glass of wine and couldn’t get our water refilled or more napkins. In addition to all of this, all my friends and I have food poisoning from this food that’s not even worth it. I would rather be shot than ever come here again. I hate literally everything about this restaurant and would not recommend it to anyone unless i really hated them. I would recommended they educate their staff and retrain them on customer service, expectations, and standards. I had better service at that mega McDonalds in Orlando than this place which says a lot. I felt like I was getting pranked while sitting in this restaurant honestly. I’m really not one to complain but this place sucked hard.
I cannot say enough good things about this place!! Seriously. The staff is so kind, and sincere – something that – as someone who had 15+ years in the service industry – I see fading away a lot in 2025. But not here! Everyone is super helpful, and just cool. When my godfather arrived, he was having a serious diabetic sugar crash. The manager moved quickly to get him something to drink and eat – her focus was him and his health – it touched our heart so much! Thank you Corrina!!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼
The food is delicious!! Even with the economic crisis in rising prices, everything is so reasonable — you’re basically getting an entire pizza in just one slice – because they’re gigantic! And it’s not because they’re skipping on quality – the ingredients are top tier and believe me, I would know if it they weren’t, because it never hurts my stomach. 😌 They offer gluten-free options – which are also so yummy!! They have a cute little bar where they make delicious, affordable (yes, I said affordable!!) craft cocktails. I mean, really? Does it get any better? Everything is clean, cute art on the walls, jams playing. We had my son’s little graduation get together here and it was the sweetest experience ever. I felt so comfortable. I’m really grateful that this awesome establishment exists! Don’t hesitate to make this your number one pizza spot. Because nowhere else is going to “cut it“ 😉 He he. GO TO LAZY MOON NOW!! 🍕
Oh my gluten-free delicious. And vegan also. Chicken salad wrap had me saying yummy with each bite. Hubby had the Gobbler. It is the wholeThanksgiving meal in a roll, a slight sloppy. He was pleased. They even had a small section of gluten-free desserts. Tiramasu was different, yet a pleasant nutty - coffee taste.
All in all, we will be returning. Yum yum.
OMG! Delicious! Every single dish was wonderful!
They do have gluten free options!!!
Busy place and a small parking lot. Well worth the stop!
I ordered no heat as usually in a Thai restaurant there is still some, but here it means none! My husband ordered medium heat and thinks he will move up to American hot next visit. Oh yes there WILL be a next visit. So good.
Forgot to get a picture of his soup he ate it so fast. The satay was amazing with fantastic fresh veggies and delightful peanut sauce. I ordered the super noodles and they were super delicious! My hubby ordered a red curry dish I don’t recall the name but it tasted fantastic!
My office recently had an event here with more than 25 people in attendance. The wait staff was excellent and patient with so many people. The food was DELICIOUS and the Margarita I had was also outstanding. The waiter took his time with each person, rather than working as quickly as possible, and incredibly, our food came out all at the same time and everyone loved it. My gluten allergy was carefully considered, and they have a gluten friendly menu which is always helpful.
I will absolutely be going back.
Visited for a friend’s birthday. Food was delicious. I was surprised to see a gluten friendly menu choices! Very helpful! The only negative, was that it was VERY loud. I simply couldn’t hear some of my friends at the other end of the table. Otherwise, very good!
The Moderne is a cute new addition with great drinks, very hit or miss food, and poor service. Think, expensive pre-game; it is NOT a place to kick back and relax with drinks and small bites. It was very loud and crowded. Apart from the staff being inattentive, they have a 2-hour table limit which is really annoying considering how slowly and sporadic our items arrived.
Would I recommend to:
Vegans - no
Vegetarians - no
Pescatarian - yes
Gluten sensitive - no
Celiac or high gluten sensitivity - no
Be careful going here especially if you have food allergies and restrictions. I was told they had many gluten free items and the menu did have gluten free items listed. They have a BOGO brisket platter special on Thursdays and I ordered with mashed potatoes and gravy and broccoli and asked them to hold the garlic bread and informed him it was due to an allergy. They brought out the first platter with the garlic bread place on top of the brisket and broccoli dish. No big deal except the mashed potatoes also were a weird brown color with dried gravy film on top (the gravy normally comes on the side not on top) and a scoop taken out. The meat was dry like jerky in some spots and crusty on top and separated in two separate chunks. I asked if they could make a fresh plate without bread and again stated the allergy. He brought out the second platter without bread and said they would remake the first one. This second platter had fresh mashed potatoes that were actually white not brown like the first plate with a side of gravy and the meat was fresh and moist. Well, they brought out the "remade" first platter only for it to be the exact same platter that had the toast on it before. The same old mashed potatoes with the scoop taken out and the same 2 chunks of old brisket. You could see the spot where the garlic toast used to be on the plate and where it touched the broccoli dish too. I'm a chef myself but it doesn't take a genius to know what food looks like when it has been sitting around for a while and this plate looked like it had been someone else's who sent it back. I think they tried to pull one of those moves where the customer complains and they pretend to make it again and give them the same dish and the customer doesn't notice. I told the waiter that I did not want to get sick and he agreed the food looked off but got annoyed and said "So what do you want me to do here?"
A different experience I had here was when I ordered a side of brisket and they brought out my plate with my sisters garlic toast on top of the meat and had to remake it due to my allergies. They brought out a different plate that was cold and everything was dried out and crusted over. I didn't want to complain again and tried a bite of the meat. It was so salty. Burn your tongue salty. My sister said I was probably being a Karen and tried a piece and spit it out immediately. She asked our waitress if there was something that could be done since the food was cold, old, and salty. The waitress eyes got really wide. She looked at me and said "REALLY?" then she stared at my plate with a crazy expression, pressed her lips together, flared out her nostrils, and started angrily blowing really hard and fast in and out of her nose for about 10 seconds then snapped out of it and said "Okay, no problem!" She took my food back and came out with the check and after another 10 minutes, we realized that I was never going to get my food. The waitress said since there was no pleasing me, I would probably be happier eating at home. She just straight up decided I didn't get to eat because they couldn't get the order right.
The only time I had a somewhat decent experience was the first time I went. But, even then, the waiter was drunk, still messed up the order, and told me and my mother several separate stories about how he frequently drives and speeds while nearly blackout drunk and since his family is rich and influential, he never gets charged when he's arrested. No wonder the place is always empty.
Finally got to try the @throwsomeshadeorl it’s such a cute place. I love @eatdrinkthriveorl and was anxious to try. I prefer the food options for gluten free at Thrive but lamp and shade do have some decent options. Not noted on the menu but the server was very helpful. My hope is they can use a gf gochujang and make some more options like they have at thrive. 💕💕🙏🙏 So appreciated. Go check them out. We sat in the lounge area bc there were no tables available but it was quite comfy there! Good times. 💕
I was pleased to discover that the establishment offers gluten-free options and that they took the time to clearly communicate that these options are gluten-friendly, though they cannot guarantee the absence of cross-contamination. They have a dedicated area for gluten-free items, which I greatly appreciated. Informed of the potential risks, I decided to proceed and ordered the gluten-free fettuccine Alfredo. I must say, the gluten-free pasta was quite good. However, it was notably salty, a sentiment echoed by my dining companions regarding their regular pasta and bread. Overall, I am happy to see that they now offer options for individuals with Celiac disease. As of the time of this post, I feel well and have experienced no adverse reactions to the gluten-free options.
I put a pick up order in for 3:30pm and it was not made yet. The guy said he needed to make it so it’s crispy when I got it. The gluten free was very squishy. Waited until 3:50 for the pizza.
Super friendly. This is one of the only places I can go to get a beer that’s gluten free, which is a fun treat. Drinking an IPA like a normal human - a truly novel experience.
One of my favorite places to eat in Orlando! They are gluten friendly and have delicious traditional dishes. The kimchi stew is my favorite! So glad they were able to rebuild.
