We stopped by after a busy day. It was late and they were within 30 min of closing. The hostess was gracious and welcomed us with a warm smile and positive energy.
Our server was Brandon who made us forget that customer service is a lost art. He was incredibly attentive, had amazing recommendations, and made sure every part of our experience was perfect. We haven’t had a server as good as Brandon in years.
We recommend the smoked barrata as an appetizer and their wood fired pizza (so delicious and authentic). We also sampled their gluten free crust which was incredibly light and fluffy…wow! We didn’t have the pasta but it looked amazing. They also have a number of impressive desserts, to include a decadent chocolate soufflé and classic gelato.
Good wine list, both by the glass and bottle, at reasonable prices.
We will most certainly return.
This restaurant was a delightful surprise after traveling across the country and in need of some real food.
We ordered the ribs and fries and Cole slaw and it did not disappoint. The decor, general atmosphere, kids menu, gluten free menu, service … all was thoughtfully crafted and executed.
We had a great experience and hope to travel through and come back or recommend to others!
General manager Martin H personally assured our quality of food and friendly atmosphere. The food was delicious and portion size very adequate (I had to bring home half that I will enjoy for lunch today). Our server, Erik, H, was prompt, courteous, and knowledgeable about gluten dietary restrictions. Although too early in the day for a margarita, Martin assured me that he would make me the best margarita around when I visited again. Highly recommend this delightfully decorated restaurant that excels in great service and great food.
Every detail. Family-owned & run this restaurant is a hidden gem. Super fresh and delicious Turkish (Middle Eastern) food. The best baba ganoush & stuffed grape leaves that I have ever had! Beautiful restaurant, impeccable service & lovely family. And reasonably priced. It’s 45 minutes from my home but absolutely worth the trip. Will definitely go back again & again. And I am gluten-free & dairy-free & there were delicious options. All dishes were marked GF DF & V. Everything was absolutely scrumptious. Highly recommend.
Omg, the employees were AMAZING! Being gluten free and vegan, it can be difficult to navigate eating out.
They keep the gluten free noodles under the counter. There is a vegan section on the wall. I read the broth on every package under the vegan section and none were gluten free. Instead, I used onions, garlic powder, fried tofu, and more when I cooked my noodles to flavor the water and it was quite enjoyable!
Apparently, they have a miso broth that is gluten free but they were out the day I was there.
Super fun drinks!! The heart and star shaped jellies in my drink were gluten free and vegan!! That was a first for me.
Seriously, the staff was so incredibly helpful. They took initiative to really help me. They checked ingredients for SO MANY THINGS!! Truly, fantastic help. Thank you all so much!!
I will be back!
I have Celiac Disease and have to eat gluten-free and Carrabbas has an excellent selection from which to choose. The salads are consistent crispy. Great service as well!
Meat project has excellent quality meat and excellent service. There’s quite a few meat choices as well. Sides are automatically included and 4 sauces too. If you’re gluten free the staff provides sesame oil with salt for a sauce. Before finishing one serving of meat the servers are already grabbing your order for the next round so there’s no waiting, except for when the meat is cooking of course. My photo includes brisket, the 4 sauces, and some of the sides. Sides can be ordered infinitely and they’re replaced by servers once they’re finished. I definitely recommend meat project!
One of our regular haunts. My favorite is the veggie lover roll and my son loves the beef pho. I think their kimchi is the best around. Staff are knowledgeable about gluten-free options.
A Heavenly Brew at Cafein - Centreville's Hidden Gem!
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Cafein, a charming cafe located in Centreville, and I cannot sing its praises enough! From the moment I stepped through the doors, I knew I was in for a delightful experience. The warm, inviting atmosphere created by the tasteful decor and friendly staff made me feel right at home.
The aroma of freshly brewed coffee hit me as soon as I entered, and I knew I was in for a treat. I ordered a cappuccino and an almond croissant, and they were nothing short of heavenly. The cappuccino had the perfect balance of bold espresso and velvety foam, a testament to the skills of the talented barista. The almond croissant was the perfect companion to my drink, with its buttery, flaky layers and a generous helping of almond paste.
While enjoying my coffee, I couldn't help but notice the wide variety of pastries, sandwiches, and salads on display, all looking as scrumptious as my croissant. The menu is quite diverse, offering vegan and gluten-free options, which is a lovely touch for those with dietary restrictions.
The staff at Cafein deserves a special mention. They were attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu items, ensuring that I had the perfect coffee and pastry pairing. Their genuine passion for customer satisfaction made my experience even more enjoyable.
If you're in the Centreville area and are in need of a caffeine fix, look no further than Cafein. This hidden gem is the perfect place to catch up with friends, finish some work, or simply enjoy a moment of solitude with a divine cup of coffee. I'll definitely be returning soon!
