This restaurant was awesome. We were seated right away with our reservation, and our server Amie was with us very quickly. She was vey personable and gave legit great recommendations of items from the menu. We chose this restaurant since it had a lot of positive reviews regarding gluten free options and safe meals. My wife has celiac disease and is easily sickened by even a small amount of cross contamination. Amie understood the severity of my wife's allergy, knew what menu items were safe, and assured us that the kitchen staff are very careful. My wife had a great meal with appetizer, entree, and dessert, and had no negative reactions. We will definitely eat here again and hope to have Amie as our server.

I have a severe gluten allergy. Two separate servers went through the menu and told me what I could eat, how things were prepped in the back and what I could substitute. They were very knowledgeable. I enjoyed foods I rarely eat as someone with a severe gluten allergy - they subbed baked corn chips on the nachos, corn tortillas for the enchiladas and gave me baked chips with my salsa. They told me everything for an allergy and celiac gets given a big card so everyone is very careful in the back. I felt comfortable ordering and eating here. Great job Sol Toro!

Had dinner at Tao after a game. The food and service was decent and the overall vibe is cool. Restaurant is a bit dark and loud so not great for conversations. They do offer good gluten free options. The menu is Asian inspired and offer a mixture of different options with Chinese, Japanese, or Thai influences. Reservations recommended as it can be quite busy.

The Golden Palace is a true cultural experience. The owner and all of the staff are absolutely wonderful. It is such a friendly atmosphere and the Dim Sum is amazing. I have celiac disease and they were able to accommodate me with so many gluten free options! You will be in for a treat if you run into Winnie! She is the absolute sweetest!

I didn't expect when I ordered a veggie burger, to have a gourmet experience. Flavors excellent, and a gluten free bun to boot.

Having celiac disease and craving breakfast has always been tricky when dining out. I was definitely hesitant as the online menu photos did not show many gluten free options. HOWEVER, Monique, our waitress was amazing and guaranteed that my entire breakfast was made on an entirely separate pan and I was able to enjoy the classic breakfast with no issues! Definitely will come back to Herb’s if I’m ever in town!

OK so this place is my new and from now on ONLY place I will eat breakfast. Why? Bcuz 1-gluten free toast was the bomb, 2- scrambles with cheese melt in your mouth goodness, 3-homefries finally cooked just like I requested, extra crispy, 4- homemade cornbeef hash, I have no words for this goodness. Now for the young ladies who took care of us, they were the icing on the cake!!! Friendly, courteous, efficient, and I must say friendly one more time. Funny as hell our Gabby n Amber. Yea, I'm calling them out! Lol

Excellent! Open today during snow storm until 5pm. No deliveries today. Due to the obvious— the roads are terrible. Really friendly staff. We dined in. They were pretty quick with getting drinks appetizers and our meals. They offer gluten free pasta and pizza. There food was fantastic. We ordered the meatball and sausage appetizer a couple of pizzas and a pasta meal. Everything was perfect! Not sure if you guys are a chain if you are consider branching out to Niantic. Looking forward to ordering from you guys again very soon. Thank you!! Update: Placed a $100+ to go order... it was a very large order [we were having a birthday party]—on a weekday—keep that in mind. I had the guy taking my order read back to me what I ordered to be certain NOTHING GOT SCREWED UP! He says 45 minutes. Upon arrival [arrived earlier then 45 minutes]—to be on the safe side. Our order wasn’t ready to go yet however part of it sat. And sat and sat and sat. Waited an hour. Finally order is complete and ready to go. Of course food was—COLD. From what? Sitting there. Pizza was—BURNT! Crust was brick hard. INEDIBLE! Tossed it into the trash and it sounded like a bag of rocks hit my Simplehuman trash can. Asked for oil and vinegar dressing they gave us a thick [I don’t know what kind] of dressing. The tomatoes on the salads were—SOGGY! Not crisp and fresh tasting. One of the other salads came already dressed [you’d think when they’re making a salad to go they’d know better than to add dressing directly to salad as opposed to putting it on the side so it doesn’t get SOGGY] and the dressing was too sweet. Asked for double chicken on a meal... they charged us for double chicken —NO CHICKEN! The sauce on the pasta meals was pretty much dry from sitting for so long on the pass. The calzone... the cheese was thick and congealed by the time we got back and served it. It just didn’t look very appetizing. The calamari appetizer was like chewing on rubber. I am cringing as I type this review. I can understand one mistake. Maybe two. But you guys completely ruined the birthday dinner we had hosted. Food was so COLD we had to toss it into the microwave. What a shame. I was beyond angry to even pick up the phone and speak to a manager/owner/someone. It would of been me picking them apart verbally. We wanted to just enjoy the rest of our evening considering how absolutely terrible the food was. How disappointing for you guys to drop the ball so hard like this. We had high hopes since we have dined in twice before and have gotten take out a few times as well. Obviously, they were smaller take out orders. As you can see, I gave you guys praise and 5 stars originally because you were great then. Now, I give you guys one star and to be honest it’s being really really generous. I simply want a refund. Would we recommend this place? NO. Would we ever return? Absolutely not. Like I said—I want a refund. If it weren’t for the birthday dinner we were hosting, we would have driven down with the cold, burnt, and missing food items of the order and demanded a refund. Honestly, I wouldn’t have left without a refund or all my food be made fresh and given to me hot—like it was supposed to be in the first place. Absolutely disappointed. What on earth happened to you guys? How do you go from being awesome to absolutely TERRIBLE?!?
