The food was alright, but the staff was amazing. Both my wife and I have gluten allergies and our server and the kitchen did an amazing job of catering to our needs. When they found out we were celebrating a honeymoon weekend, they brought out a feee dessert and a hand drawn and hand signed card from all the staff congratulating us on our wedding. The food was probably a 4/5, but the staff being so attentive and caring about us really made this a 5/5 experience :)
My family and I stopped here and absolutely loved it. We are huge fans of Detroit style pizza and they nailed it. I had a gluten free pie that was nothing short of amazing.
Staff is extremely helpful and friendly. Great place.
Dreamy little escape in Easttown. Specials switch up regularly. All crêpes can be made gluten free. Remember to ask. Efficient staff. Appreciate the fresh water carafe and glasses on the table.

So so SO good!! We knew we were in for a treat as soon as we opened the door and could smell what they were preparing. We had the family combo and it was perfect for two very hungry people. Everything on it was delicious and it was the perfect mix of spicy and mild dishes. I have never enjoyed collard greens before, but I ate so much of them here! And the women working took great care of us. They're very good at accomodating dietary restrictions. They made me gluten-free injera! And many dishes are vegan. We can't wait to come back!
We had Gino's delivered as a late night snack at our wedding and from the get-go Pete and his wife (sorry my mom spoke to you I can't remember your name!), were unbelievably sweet. We were super happy they had gluten free options for our guests with dietary restrictions! When we went in to pay for the pizza Gino wished us a lifetime of happiness and threw in t-shirts for my partner and I. We absolutely smashed the pizza, which was DELICIOUS, so I don't have any pictures. But I do have a picture of my partner in a Gino's shirt enjoying our honeymoon at the botanical gardens. Seriously amazing service. We'll be eating much more Gino's Pizza from now on! :)
Hot damn! Right away this restaurant caught my eye from the outside with its unique architecture. We were greeted and seated pretty quickly but the restaurant wasn’t very busy at the moment. We ordered the passion fruit and papaya smoothie to start. It was so refreshing and brought me right to the feeling of being on a Caribbean beach! As celiacs we were informed there were three items that are not gluten free which includes the Pata and the shrimp. We ordered the Chicken Curry and Chicken Creole. We decided to order heat level 2. Miss Olga personally brought the dishes out and let us know if we wanted that we are allowed to bring our own wine and beer. She dropped off the plates and let us dig in. The flavors were so tasty and perfectly balanced between savory and hint of sweet. Later Olga stopped by again and chatted with us about the meal and how all the food is handed down family recipes. All in all I will 100% return for the tasty gluten free Caribbean food served with love and passion.
