They were stellar from the moment we walked in. They had my mind at ease immediately assuring me they don’t even bring gluten into the building. The food was amazing it felt like a 5 star dining experience. The whole menu being gluten free and without worries of cross contamination it was a fantastic experience with food and service. I will be returning for all of my events worth celebrating. Not to mention a full side menu of mocktails 😊
Lots of healthy options. I tried their sausage biscuit and Cyprus side salad. The biscuit was good but the salad was stellar! So fresh and delicious. The dressing so light and flavorful. They had lots of gluten free and vegan options. Enjoyed the inside, very warm and inviting.
Gonna have to rate this lower until I get a response. Ordered the asiago chicken, fries, and French onion -all gluten free with listed allergies. I didnt have the soup last night and have had severe diarrhea, bloating and gas all day. Typical from eating gluten for me and last up to 1-2 weeks. I can only assume it was in fact the Asiago chicken. I rarely eat outside of my comfort spots because of this so im gonna have to recommend you steer clear if you are Celiac, GF, or have any allergies. If you cant guarantee the surface or utensils havent been contaminated, don't use them or don't make the product. I would rather have the items docked and refunded than go through this.
It has been a while since we visited Taste. Historically have had good service but today even though we clearly stated gluten free due to allergy there was a croton in my wife salad and she got cross contaminated. I took the salad to the staff and they offered to make it again. The second salad had other items not Gluten-free. Very disappointed as they used to have dedicated station for making Gluten-free orders.
We were there Dec.8th,Sunday 6:30pm. As soon as we stood to order, no one recognized our presence. The guy and lady just went on with what they’re doing. Not busy, it’s just us waiting. 2 people seated. They could’ve at least say, We’ll be with you or something. Instead, they just made us wait for about 3mins. We ordered Bacon and brie pasta which is the only one that’s ok that’s why I gave a 2 star. The Supreme pizza and a gluten-free pizza are so dry and tasteless. This is also the dirtiest location we’ve been to. I hope the owner/manager will address the performance of their staff. The attitude they reflected shows that they’re not happy with what they do.
This place was absolutely amazing! The gluten free bread was so good! The fries were amazing and served in a huge portion which was great for sharing! Would highly recommend eating here if you are near Norfolk area.
Went there on my honeymoon and just recently made it back after 15 years. Same great food and service. They are great with gluten free options and this time we brought the kids and they enjoyed it as well!
What a fabulous place!!! Not only is the food great, and it includes lots of Gluten-free options, the people are amazing--particularly Shauna-the owner/gallery manager, and Willow. They have painting opportunities/relaxing and a gallery for artists to exhibit. What a great vibe!!!

Went to Saffron Bistro for date night last night. The food is incredible, the restaurant is spotless, and the the staff is welcoming and attentive. I have celiac and was so pleased that the majority of the menu is gluten free. Our servers were very kind and didn’t mind double checking for me that the items I ordered were gluten free. Can’t wait to go back!
The food is delicious and they have good gluten free options. I appreciate the cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. Their portions are large; come hungry!

My family came to celebrate a birthday. My son has a food allergy. The server Carson told me that they couldn't do anything to accommodate my son, and this is a seafood restaurant. I said to Carson we go to many seafood restaurants like captain George and they accommodate us.So I asked for the manager. The manager which informed me that the owners daughter has celiac and they use the over for her so I was like please do that for my son.
Omg best ever! They were constantly changing gloves. I got the chicken shawarma bowl and was so happy that I had gluten-free options. The fries were amazing and the Turkish coffee was spot on!
Good googly moogly this place has great food. And an entire vegan menu if you like me crave vegan food other than veggie burgers you love a good falafel and addicted to good hummus. Come here immediately. PS they also have a vegan and gluten-free brownie. I wanted to order everything on the menu and I think I did.
Very good vegan selection including mayonnaise with its own menu, and both the vegan shrimp and lobster are gluten free. They have tamari (gluten free soy sauce), and the wasabi is real (very spicy!) and gluten free. Other vegan options include a tofu steak and even ramen.
Please note the miso soup and starter salad are NOT gluten-free.
Very good service and the staff are knowledgeable about ingredients. They have a nice sushi bar with trained sushi chefs and optional traditional seating, though I wouldn't recommend it for anyone taller than 6'2".
Would love to come here again.
I stumbled upon this donut shop when researching donut shop options for the kids. It happened to be a Friday and they had fresh gluten friendly donuts! It made my day. I splurged and got a half dozen and a lavender honey latte! Just heavenly!!!
Maybe their regular waffles are good, but their gluten free waffles were just about the worst thing we've eaten in a long time. Dense, heavy, and flavorless. The toppings were fine, which saved the meal somewhat. Syrup was just that gummy pancake syrup that's mainly high fructose corn syrup. Lukewarm coffee rounded out the meal, and the folks behind the counter seemed like they'd prefer to be elsewhere. Me too, my man, me too...
A great find. The pizzas are perfect. In fact the gluten free one my friend let me taste was practically indistinguishable from the regular pizza I had. Prices were very reasonable. Staff were very friendly. My go to in Norfolk.
Longtime fans, but this experience was alarming.
My husband and I have eaten here many times and it used to be our favorite pizza spot. Last night, we ordered our usual: pepperoni pizzas for us, the Maddy for my mom, and a gluten-free veggie pizza for our friend.
Not long after eating, my husband and I both became extremely sick. I was vomiting for hours, and he followed shortly after. Initially, we thought it might’ve been the pepperoni, but after some process of elimination, we realized my mom (who only had cheese) also ended up vomiting later in the night. Our friend, who had the gluten-free crust and no cheese, was totally fine. His was completely vegan.
So now we’re thinking it could’ve been the cheese, or possibly the dough, since those of us who got sick all had the same regular crust.
We’ve always loved this place, but this was a scary and disappointing experience. Sadly, we won’t be back after this. Food safety just isn’t something we’re willing to risk.
The food was amazing and the service was superior. Dawn did an amazing job serving the guests. She is hilarious and makes fabulous recommendations. I didn't catch the bartender name but he was very funny and made excellent drinks. This place would make a great date night or hang out with friends. The menu is delicious and fun and has something for everyone. Vegan and gluten friendly items.
Delicious food and great service! The guys here are awesome - so friendly and genuine. I've yet to encounter any of them in a bad mood much less providing anything other than great service! If you have celiac disease it is safe to eat here! If you ask for a lettuce bun they always ask if you have an allergy and if so they take precautions to ensure no cross contamination. You can also eat the french fries!!! Love this place!!
It is great to be able to go to a well established restaurant like this and get a fast but good quality meal, And have it made gluten free! I love how their fixings bar always has such fresh food on it!
I have loved Razzo since their old location and family and friends have followed to their new location. If anything it has gotten better. The best thing for me is I have celiac disease (gluten free) and they have always taken care of me. Tonight I got the best tasting Veal Francese gluten free with no problems with the friendliest hostess and waitress. As a business owner myself I knew I needed to let them know how much my friend, son and I enjoyed the meal and will continue to come back as we have for years. Cheers!
Very nice experience this morning. Our server Tawanda was excellent! Fresh coffee, delicious eggs and gluten friendly pancakes (which were very good). Everyone was so happy and friendly.

Ordered pad Thai with chicken breast (meat cost extra).
Pad Thai was missing chicken, had a yellowed dehydrated lime wedge next to it, and doesn't seem traditional. Seems Americanized and very few gluten-free, dairy free options.
3.5/10, not impressed
First time coming to the shop at Premium Outlets. I got the steak and egg absolutely positively delicious! The two young ladies working very friendly and accommodating to my gluten free allergy (celiac). Jada and Tink really good hires great energy and vibes hire more people like them!!
So good. I did the grab and go and I’m such a happy girl with the chicken salads here.
My only “wish” is that they added a gluten free bread type option
Solo diner. Monday morning, and I was seated immediately. I like the look of blended old and new decor. I'm a gluten-free diner, so I ordered the steak burrito without a tortilla. It came out in a bowl, and even though the hash browns were on the bottom, they were still crispy! There was a good amount of steak on it, too! I brought my own coffee from my hotel, and they never said anything about it (win-win). There is a surcharge for using a credit card. Rashida is a delight! 😊
First, there was Elle (“Ellie”), our superb, professional, well-informed server. A veteran of restaurant work, and thoroughly precise in her entire presentation.
Then, there was the food.
Outstanding in preparation, quality of ingredients, and flavor combinations.
The iceberg salad boasted a stunning array of flavors and garnishes and an emulsified, balsamic vinaigrette. My oysters Rockefeller were forgettable yet tasty, just not the classic I had expected. My wife had the crispy whole (boneless!) trout, and I had a fabulous roasted whole (boneless!) branzino. Both fishes were garnished with some splashes of frissee lettuce, with a sweet, subtle lemon vinaigrette. I didn’t care for the succotash because it included soy beans instead of lima beans. A disappointing, inappropriate blend of corn, carrots, and edamame. Lima beans makes succotash authentic, and this was a strange departure.
The passionfruit white chocolate mousse chocolate bomb was a great dessert, well worth trying because it was gluten-free and so satisfying.
This was a fabulous experience at Saltine.
