Oh wow, if you haven’t dined here before, you have missed a lot!
Get Real has the best tasting, most fresh ingredients of any restaurant in the area. I’ve ordered lunch 2 days in a row - egg salad special, the melted tuna and smoothies - truly delicious. The atmosphere is wonderfully simple - just find a table, order at the counter and they bring your meal. In addition, they circle back a couple times to make sure you’re happy. They cater to different dietary needs - gluten free, vegan, vegetarian and lactose intolerant. In addition, their bacon is incredible! And, it’s located on the coolest block in Sturgeon Bay, with many great shops next door. Come hungry - the plates are big.
We ordered the lemon blueberry gluten free muffin and a vanilla frappe. They were both delicious. Highly recommend this coffee shop. The outdoor seating was ample and large umbrellas that shade the whole family sitting at the table.
Had a guest from Spain with me. He said it was the most delicious gluten-free pizza he has ever had. The lunch buffet had a really great selection of different toppings and crust styles.
This restaurant is always on my list for places to go when we're visiting family in the area every summer. I was disappointed this summer to find they no longer have the gluten free walleye sandwich I've loved for years (walleye is my absolute favorite fish). I know it's normal to have changes to the menu, but that was a serious bummer.
I need to be gluten free (autoimmune reasons) and found out there were a number of menu items I couldn't order because they were marinated in soy sauce or had soy sauce in the dressing. It would be great if they switched to using Tamari (same taste, but gluten free) instead.
I'm crazy in love with their Asian salad -- again can't get it with protein (marinated in soy sauce) or the dressing but it's so fresh and just so gorgeous in the bowl. You almost don't want to eat it because it's so pretty! My husband always orders the Bahn Mi salad (he doesn't have food restrictions) and he loves it every time.
My only other complaint is that they have strange hours -- they're only open for lunch (not breakfast, not dinner) and only on certain days so make sure you check their website before planning to dine.
This restaurant is a must eat if you're in the Sturgeon Bay area. I had the portobello mushroom sandwich with French fries, and it was absolutely perfect! They also offer gluten-free options, which I think is extremely important since I eat gluten-free. Our server was so friendly, charismatic, and attentive! The atmosphere was fun and very niche.. carved tiki statues and outside dining made the experience very relaxing.
I highly recommend it!! 😄
Called before arriving to confirm that they have gluten free options and the gentleman on the phone was very kind and confirmed that they can let the kitchen know about a food allergy. However, when we arrived and asked about the gluten free options, the wait staff looked at us in confusion.
The older gentleman with glasses who took our order was very rude and impatient. He hovered over one of us, tapping his pen, after we kindly told him twice that we need more time to review the menu. When we asked if we could substitute black beans instead of refried beans he had no idea what we were asking for and then angrily responded by saying it comes with "regular beans!".
The other wait staff were more friendly, but the service overall was not good. Chicken was barely seasoned. We've been to many authentic Mexican restaurants, but not a good experience for our first time here.
This is our Sturgeon Bay favorite. The menu has a great variety, and they are wonderful about accommodating gluten free diets. The last 3 times we were there we had the same server, Olivia. She’s efficient, knowledgeable, and accommodating. We will be back.
Must visit for breakfast or lunch if you're in the area. Uniquely decorated coffee shop with really good coffee and great food, nice staff who really care. Gluten free food and dairy free coffee options available. Honestly can't wait to go back, but unfortunately I live in Florida, so it might be a while until I can come back 😭.
