Where do i start??? Okay, Shelly the gm was outstanding! She made us feel so welcome and when she visited our table, she was not in any rush and was super warm and friendly. She was super generous wanting us to try their different foods.
Evan the chef brought out gluten free cookies that were so good! They weren't even on the menu!
Claire, our waittress made us feel right at home and assured us how safe the kitchen is for celiac/gluten free. She was amazing!
Hapa Sushi accommodated our large group with large amounts of sushi and fun! I did find a stink bug crawling across the table this time but I thankfully was able to forget about it and enjoy all the gluten free food options!!!!
Great place to go if you have celiac and/or a dairy allergy. They took precautions to prevent cross contamination and the gluten free cones were delicious.
We visited this restaurant after learning they offered gluten-free ramen, a critical consideration for myself and my 6-year-old and 10-year-old daughters, since we all have celiac disease. Unfortunately, the experience was deeply disappointing and harmful. Upon delivering our meals, the server inaccurately identified which dishes were gluten-free. Midway through our meal, I noticed my eldest daughter’s noodles looked different from mine, and it became clear they had served her the wrong dish.
When we alerted the staff to their grave error, the response was a dismissive apology with no attempt to correct the mistake, offer compensation, or even check on my daughter’s well-being. As a result, she is now severely unwell, and we may need to visit urgent care. For someone with celiac disease, this mistake isn’t just a minor inconvenience—it risks weeks of recovery, long-term health complications, and heightened cancer risks.
The lack of safeguards to prevent allergen mix-ups is alarming, and the staff’s negligence and lack of accountability are unacceptable. Restaurants catering to dietary restrictions must prioritize rigorous training and protocols. This incident reflects a systemic failure, and I urge others with allergies or celiac disease to exercise extreme caution here.
My favorite quick bite to eat in Boulder. They have fresh tasting food which doesn’t break the bank (sandwiches, soups, and sweet treats). I don’t make it to Boulder much anymore, but when I do, I make sure to go there over almost any other place to eat. It also caters to well to vegetarians, gluten free, and vegans. And just a heads up as a mostly meat eater, I will eat the vegan and veggie meals because they are that good. Lastly, Marcy and Julie, run an extremely professional, welcoming, and heartwarming sandwich shop. I promise you that everyone in your party will have an option no matter their diet and will leave happy
Fantastic GF options. Highly recommended for those with celiac disease. GF fried Chile relleno was amazing. And the fried jalapeno caps are out of this world!
They have gluten free crepes! I visited out to Colorado and I must say, Colorado is a super gluten free friendly state but the fact that I got to have crepes (Nutella ones at that) was a highlight for me! They were delicious as was their coffee and it was an overall wonderful experience and a restaurant I would definitely recommend and visit again myself!
Super menu with vegetarian as well as gluten and dairy free options. Great service and atmosphere. I enjoyed my plata while watching our party sharing a wide variety of delicious tapas. Wonderful experience.
FANtastic pizza. Soo so good. I'll keep coming back here for SURE. Best part about it is that my mom could eat here too (she is gluten free/celiac). Eating out with my parents and wife for my wife's bday was the first time in YEARS I haven't seen my mom bring her own food. The pizza was to die for (as they say) but that's a very contradictory statement lol. EAT HERE, SO GOOD!!
I am from Taiwan, it tastes a little different from what I have back home, but it’s so good that I will for sure come again.
p.s. my celiac gf enjoyed it too
This place has a great, casual atmosphere and of course the rooftop views are amazing. I usually go to Mangia Panino because they offer a fantastic gluten free sweet potato gnocchi option, and great chicken parm.
Best spot on pearl street for a 1st date or to get out of the sun. Best staff in town, they make me feel welcome and serve a great vegan burger! U can even get gluten free bread.
The food was fresh, high quality and imaginative.
A special shout out to our server Wyatt! He was so personable and called me by my first name from the open table reservation, when initially greeting us. Wyatt was especially attentive, and executed our gluten free request accurately. Most of all he offered me a very genuine and kind Birthday wish when serving us dessert so much so that it made my girlfriend tear up. There are so many great restaurants in Boulder, but in my opinion service is what sets them apart and Wyatt should be recognized for his hard work, effort and kindness. Thank you Japango for helping us celebrate this last Fish Friday of the Lent season and reeling in an awesome 40th Birthday Celebration.
Awesome spot for lunch! I came back 2 days in a row. The house rice bowl is SO good and they have free electrolyte water on tap. Menu is labeled with gluten free, this is a good option for folks like me with Celiac
These guys are taking the Pandemic seriously! They pass your card back and forth with a 6 foot pole. The Rotisserie Chicken is to die for and the salads are great! I have to eat gluten free but my kids enjoy the slice and a cookie combo. In the past they wld ask for pizza dough to play with which is a big hit while they wait. We Love This Place & Always Have! Even the owner is fun with his daily trivia questions! Great guy!
Normally a pretty big fan of their nine iron panini, and have been a fan of their gluten free bread for quite some time. My latest order with them was a pretty big disappointment due to the much smaller gluten free buns. I also did not receive any meat with my sandwich so it was essentially a mini lettuce sandwich. Accidents happen, but I really hope that Postino is not significantly downsizing their gluten free bread moving forward because it’s simply not worth the price.
This is the perfect little shack right on the Pearl Street Mall to grab the best grilled cheese sandwiches, including gluten-free, and some of the best french fries! Only considering it. It's definitely worth every bite! My go-to gluten free is the classic with ham and tomato.
Had the Colorado burger on a gluten free bun….Literally best burger I’ve ever had. Wish the fries were gluten free, my daughter had the truffle fries with her burger and said they were delicious… we’re from Dallas TX wishing we had a Rooted close to home. We will be back!
I've been to the Jax in fort Collins a few times. This was my first time in the boulder location, and it far exceeded our Jax experiences! We arrived an hour prior to our reservation and they were so accommodating to do their best to seat us ASAP. Everyone acts like it's their jobs to serve and even the manager was hands on deck, making sure the heat lamps were continuously lit (wind was strong). They were also super amazing about my gluten allergy and brought out a non gluten item and realized it right away and my daughter got to eat the non gluten one. They had amazing service and everyone was kind and seemed to happy to serve. I enjoyed my Boulder Jax experience way more than my fort collins one! I'm fort collins location they seem annoyed with questions and seem too busy to answer the phone. I often have to leave a message for the fort Collins one and accidentally called the fort collins one when trying to notify them we were an hour early. I called 4 times in hopes to get a hold of someone. I was sent to voicemail and then I realized I was calling fort collins location. I called boulder next and they answered right away and when I showed up they said "oh, you were the one who called" and stood by their word to get is sat ASAP. Thank you Boulder location for exceeding any expectations had and for the wonderful dinner experience!
Perfect for a small bite, full meal, or anything in-between.
I can't believe this place isn't packed 24/7. The food is fantastic, atmosphere calm, and there are options for everyone (veggie, gluten free, etc). Owners and staff are friendly, welcoming, and attentive (and local).
Onigiri are my staple fare here. They are so simple, but attention to the details makes them some of my favorite food in Boulder. Everything tastes fresh, is clearly handmade, and they get the texture perfect.
There are also rice bowls and a variety of other fare, even including some Tibetan staples.
The chai and sake are fantastic.
This should be a Boulder/Pearl Street "must-visit" - check it out if you haven't already.
There is absolutely no allergen information anywhere, neither on the physical menu or the online menu. We had just gone out and eaten mole a few days before with no issue. We come here and order enchiladas that have mole on them. My boyfriend starts having an allergic reaction and I have to track down staff to see if the mole contains nuts. They didn’t know themselves and had to ask the kitchen. I was then quickly blamed for not bringing an epipen even though we have NEVER had to worry about nuts at a mexican place OR in mole. The server then later tells us that mole always has nuts in it. As a server myself, I know all allergens present on the menu ESPECIALLY large ones such as nuts and dairy. We should’ve been able to find an allergen menu either online or in person, or there should’ve been a disclaimer about the mole containing nuts. THERE WAS 0 ALLERGEN INFO ANYWHERE. There was a gluten disclaimer and vegetarian disclaimer and that was all. Allergies kill all the time and the experience we had today was disgraceful. If you or your loved ones have an allergy I implore you to eat somewhere else.
My favorite coffee shop! The coffee is incredibly rich and flavorful, service is always fantastic, and they have a nice variety of coffee types, alternative milks, and goodies, normal and gluten free.
The service was wonderful. The mushrooms tasted waterlogged with no flavor. The duck breast was tough but only the duck leg was edible, with taste. The salad niçoise and steak tartare was good, not great or outstanding. The shrimp cocktail was mediocre at best. For the $200+ price, we expected outstanding for Boulder, Colorado. BTW, do not eat here if you have celiac or need true gluten free!
I love this place. Inexpensive with tons of delicious choices. I had PLENTY of gluten-free options as well. There's sometimes a line, but this affordable gem found among the over-priced eateries on Pearl Street is well- worth the wait.
Celiac friendly
