Had a post Tampa Theater Star Wars pizza and their gluten free crust option were out of this world!!
The best part about the experience was our server Emily! From the moment we walked in, she immediately greeted us with the biggest smile, told us to sit anywhere and she took such great care of us throughout the entire afternoon!
We need more servers like her in downtown Tampa! Way to GO, Emily!! Keep up that high vibe and making everyone feel welcome! Give that young woman a raise!!
The food was absolutely delicious! We were thrilled with their great selection of gluten-free options, which allowed us to enjoy a wonderful meal without worrying about our gluten allergy.

My experience here prior to becoming dairy free for medical reasons was excellent. In my most recent visit, I had this new dietary restriction and I found it very difficult to find anything I could eat. For example, I was told the only bread in the entire restaurant that wasn’t made with milk was a gluten free hamburger bun (that didn’t taste very good). Considering bread isn’t inherently made with milk, I found it a bit unreasonable they didn’t have another option. We love the atmosphere here but I would reconsider if you have dietary restrictions.
Many gluten free options, shrimp and grits was delicious! Chef very accommodating for GF, servers very helpful, friendly. Will come back!! Key Lime Margarita delicious!
I ordered their gluten-free New York style cheese pizza with pepperoni. It’s freaking amazing. If you’re in Tampa and you’re gluten-free, you gotta try this pizza. It’s worth it. Well done guys.
Really cool atmosphere, great service, and amazing food. Could have been a little spicier but otherwise incredible. Vegan and gluten free menus available
This place is amazing! I was really impressed with the staff and how friendly they were. They also have a gluten-free menu. I will definitely be coming back here often and I highly recommend it!
My husband and I went to the Columbia Cafe for lunch for the first time. I have recently been diagnosed with celiac disease and found in our search for a restaurant that there are very few gluten free options. We chose the Columbia Cafe because their website indicated that they have a gluten free menu, which they did. Unfortunately, I was very ill after I ate so somewhere along the way there was some cross contamination. I always loved the Columbia Restaurant in Ybor and this review is not in any way bashing the restaurant. It is basically to let others know that if you have celiac you may want to pass.
Really wish they would open a restaurant in Charleston, SC. Gluten free options and a large menu. The waitress was very hospitable even though they closed in 30 minutes.
Amazing! Absolutely loved the chicken and rice bowl. I wish they had gluten free falafel. Hopefully soon. I ordered online and picked up in the store which I’m thankful since there was a very long line during lunch. The food is great!!!!!
Beautiful atmosphere with outdoor seating when the weather is nice. The wait staff was kind and attentive and the food was delicious. I’ve dined here recently for brunch and dinner and would go back for both. They have gluten free options clearly labeled on their menus, which I really appreciate.
The service was great very nice people. The Breakfast BLT was incredible, one of the best sandwiches I have had in a really long time. I was able to get it on gluten free bread as well which I am so grateful they have that option for people with allergies. Highly recommend this place!
The atmosphere of this restaurant was amazing and our server was very friendly and helpful. She provided a list of gluten free options on the menu to include the crustacean appetizers, steaks, and vegetables. The steak was amazingly tender and flavorful! The grilled asparagus was so delicious with a nice crisp and slight charcoal hint. The others at my table loved the bread that was brought out. Its crisp and garlic aroma was mouthwatering!
The ambiance was inviting with a touch of sophistication. The cuisine was exquisite, though an expanded selection of gluten-free alternatives, like bread, would be appreciated.
Drove here (20 minutes) because they claim gluten free service. They do not offer this, or at least the person helping us did not want to. Unfortunately he did not mention they would not clean anything to avoid contamination until after we payed. We asked for a refund which he said he could not do but his manager would the next day and call us.....fast forward 4 days later and still neither happened. We were forced to call our selves and repeat the everything to the manager to get refund which hopefully we get. This sucks, had to go another 20 minutes to another restaurant who did accommodate gluten free and will was excellent. Wanted to try this place but they do not offer the gluten free they used to.
we went here because they advertised gluten free sandwiches and my friend has a very serve gluten allergy. When we went to order we asked if the toaster could be wiped down before her sandwich went in and we were told that they couldn’t do that because they were “too busy” and that they couldn’t log in to the computer system to check if another item as gluten free because she was “running around”. It’s embarrassing to have someone care so little about someone’s gluten allergy. They also weren’t busy. Kindness goes a long ways and we weren’t shown that.
Amazing food! The black bean soup, lump crab guacamole, and Skirt Steak tacos were outstanding!! Eleni our server was probably one the nicest servers I’ve seen in a long time! I explained I was gluten free she went above and beyond to make everything 100% gluten free. I’ll definitely be back!
