I said I’m gluten free and asked for rice and grilled fish of the day. This was not a problem at all here. I had ono which was delicious, very fresh tasting. Sorry for the photo. I already started eating before I took the picture

Cafe Pesto is an eclectic and fun restaurant to try out with some friends or family! Definitely recommend looking at the menu beforehand if you have dietary restrictions (they do not have a separate menu and there are limited gluten free options). It can get very loud and depending on where you’re sitting, hard to hear. I would say overall, it was a good meal with good service and the live jazz music was fun to listen to!
