Their salsa is made fresh everyday and you can taste the freshness in each bite! Gluten free options available. The food was fabulous! Customer service… our waitress was over worked and placed in 2 separate areas. This caused us a long wait to check out. There’s outdoor and indoor seating available. Breakfast is served at extended hours. Did I mention the salsa? I could have made a meal of the salsa and chips.

Surprisingly good! Meals prepared according to orders. I am gluten free so I needed a couple of modifications. The chefs were very accommodating and the food was delicious!

I got the chorizo hash brown bowl and it was super good! It looks like it's not enough but there is! (It's just because of the larger dishes) they have a substantial gluten free menu which is great since I have Celiac disease. The food is great, they have their own Hot Jalapeño sauce that is warm but not too hot, and tastes amazing - they even sell it here if you want to take it home. The prices are varied, some seem a little over-priced but after trying the food it's definitely worth it. Overall, I will definitely be coming again with my family to try food from their lunch menu!

We tried several of their gluten free baked goods and all were excellent! First, we tried the blueberry macaroons, those were delish! Also, macaroons are actually supposed to be gluten free if using the proper recipe. We also tried an almond raspberry square that was so good! And then we had the chocolate torte which was exquisite! Everything was delicious 😋🤤 and the perfect balance of sweetness. In other words, nothing was sickeningly sweet! As my husband commented, this bakery is legit! ❤️

My family of 6 came in around close (I know that’s crazy but hear me out!) we came in thinking this location was 24hrs and to our surprise it wasn’t we were greeted by our server Melissa and we offered to go to a different Denny’s but she insisted we come eat anyways, after we were sat Melissa did her best to take care of us and she was amazing, I personally have a gluten allergy and she was so compassionate about making sure my needs were met even at a late hour. We really appreciate her kindness and willingness to let us eat even while they were closing!
