I’ve heard such amazing things about this place so I was really excited to try it. I ordered my food on Uber eats so that may have made the difference with dine out. The pizza was OK, I didn’t love the cheese and there wasn’t a lot of sauce. However, the bread was great especially gluten-free. The fries were a little bit cold so that might be why they weren’t so good but I wasn’t in love. And the mac & cheese was OK. It was probably the best thing out of all three items that I tried. I just wish it had more cheese. I would definitely try it again, but would try different items or in person this time.
Freekeh is a hidden gem in SF and strikes that rare combination of amazing food, service, and ambiance.
We ordered a house sampler to try their various spreads and could not decide which one was our favorite- they were all that good, though the muhammara is a must-try! I am gluten intolerant and they happily accommodated me with homemade GF lavash-esque chips to go with the spreads.
We also got the cauliflower and three different skewers - would highly recommend the kufta and shish tawook (chicken); each came paired with different sauces and were incredibly well marinated and tender. We tried two desserts and loved the halawa o buza- creamy, nutty, and the perfect amount of sweet.
Our dining experience was complemented by the owner and waitress, who took great care of our table and simply radiated kindness and warmth. It was such a pleasure to dine here and we can’t wait to come back!

BEWARE. The Gluten Free (GF) Labels on the menu mean GF options available for that dish, NOT that the dish is gluten free. Talk to your server about your order.
I was excited when seeing the GF labels all over the menu, especially when seeing that most of those dishes involved pita bread. Sadly after talking to the bartender I learned that their pita is (obviously) not GF. Their rice pilaf also has soy sauce in it, so do not just assume the dish is GF even though they are labeled GF. Service was great and the food was good. Pricey, but normal for the gaslamp area and it was very tasty.
Great experience. Best tomato soup I’ve ever had. Turkey burger is delicious, and I’m not normally a turkey burger fan. Pearson provided great service. Many healthy options on the menu - gluten free, vegan/vegetarian. Pizzas are tasty and salads are creative. Recommend.
I was recommended this restaurant due to their gluten free selection. Loved the cauliflower as well as the mint tea. Thank you, Nathan, for being a fantastic server!
Sabrina was kind, informative, and very friendly. The food was the perfect size and the taste was excellent. We had the Korean Noodles with chicken and being somebody that is Gluten free it was amazing to have friend chicken options!!
10/10. Can’t wait to go back for lunch. I felt safe eating here and consider GG’s celiac safe. They took excellent care to prepare wonderful safe and vegetarian gluten free food for me.
Fantastic experience and absolutely amazing food! Carla our server did an incredible job recommending certain options. We tried pita falafel sandwich, Mahmara dip with chips and then gluten free chcolate mousse along with handmade baklava for desserts. Great food and authentic food, we will be back for sure!!
Nice update! They added some extra gluten free and vegan options since the last time I was here. It was my first time here for brunch so I tried and loved the breakfast tacos(not vegan). Psyched to come back and try some of the new stuff 😋
Was in Cupertino about a week ago, visiting from the east coast for a few days. My wife and I liked this place so much we stopped in twice. Seems silly for what is technically a local chain but I'd do it again on another trip. First time there I had the Pita Beef Kebab. Thought it was fantastic! Second time around we needed a lighter dinner so we split a the Saturday special they had for the Hummus lamb. We did that one on the Gluten Free pita which tasted just as good as any pita I've every had. Split the Malabi for desert and although I'm not a huge custard or pistachio fan, I found it rather enjoyable.
i’m gluten free, lactose free, vegetarian and more. safe to say finding food i can eat is a challenge. was about to start the end of the drive back for a road trip and i felt AWFUL. we went here to grab a bite and my entire mood changed. the people we so warm and kind, there were so many options for me, and the food was so flavorful. they let me know they had dedicated gf and vegan fryers, and were easily able to accommodate a wheelchair. if you need a place to stop for a bite and you don’t know what you want, or have dietary restrictions, or lots of people with different diets this is the place to be.
Being gluten-free, even the slightest cross-contamination affects me, but this restaurant handled my gluten-free order with exceptional care. The owner was incredibly understanding, taking the time to explain the meticulous process they follow to ensure gluten-free meals. I'm beyond grateful for their attention to detail and consider it outstanding service. Not to mention, the food was incredible—I left feeling full, with more than half of my plate still untouched.
The food was wonderful. It's hard to find a restaurant that has good gluten free options that the kids and adults will all like.
Our waiter wasn't the friendliest, but when there was an issue with some chicken that had been ordered, handled it quickly and notified the manager who was very quick to resolve this issue.
Would definitely recommend.
The gluten-free pizza was amaaaaazing and they even came out to assure me that the gf fries were done in separate oil from other things, I loooooved all of it! Wonderful
We have been customers for over 5 years! We love their food and it’s so great they offer gluten free options. It is run by a very sweet family and they are always so kind and welcoming.
Really good food, great options for gluten free and vegetarians. They were very nice and courteous. Lamb kabobs and hummus tasted great. Thank you for a refreshingly good dinner!
The food was so good we came back twice in 24 hours - dinner then brunch. And the cocktails were amazing. Staff handled our cousin's gluten allergy with grace and had great suggestions. We will be back anytime we are in Glendale.
Very cute, European vibes. Everything was delicious, including the spicy pineapple margarita, and they were able to substitute French fries for the rice which has pasta, for a gluten free option. I was disappointed they didn't have any vegan gluten free chocolate cheesecake that was on the menu.
A favorite for over 30 years. They recently catered a family event with vegans, vegetarians, Celiacs, a peacetarian, and omnivores. Everyone was delighted and satisfied. Le Med makes it all so easy and delicious.
We'd eaten here almost exactly a year ago and really loved the gluten free and vegan options so we tried it again. Ordered the mediterranean chicken, shrimp, lamb and falafel rice bowls for takeout. Didn't bother checking the order as we waited for it and were in communication with the cashier at the time who let us know our order was ready. Get home and they switched the shrimp for some gyro seeming meat and didn't bother to label the lamb and chicken which looked suspiciously similar. The person who ordered the chicken last year couldn't eat their dish as it seemed to be way over spiced. The person who ordered the shrimp was understandably disappointed but it was too far and too late to go back. Will not order from Healthyish again as it was a very sad meal - with the exception of the falafel bowl which was delicious.
They prepared me a plate of “Creamy Chicken Fettuccine” but Gluten Free!
I told them I was celiac and they changed my pasta and it was delicious!
They also accompany it with a salad or soup before as an appetizer. Everything was amazing
I am celiac, and I felt very comfortable. Everything was delicious.
The attention was incredible.
Food was incredible and the servers and owner were both very friendly and helpful. There are lots of options for celiacs, since the owner is also celiac.
Food looked so good and was so tasty that we didn’t get a chance to snap a picture.
Seriously delicious and reasonably priced spot in Atwater with a window and outdoor seating only. The quality and quantity of food was excellent for the price. It’s hard to actually feel full with healthy food that’s actually delicious for under $20 these days. I subbed cucumber for pita bread for a gluten free option with the hummus and it was surprisingly filling. Highly recommend.
One of my favorite comfort food places to eat. I frequent both this location in San Mateo and the one in San Bruno. I prefer the interior and ambience of the latter restaurant but parking there is challenging. The San Mateo restaurant is always busy as it's in a great location between S El Camino Real and Hwy 92 - easy to get to. The service has always been friendly and attentive. The servers chat you up and make you feel at home. Also, love that breakfast is served until 2pm!
Our office came here to celebrate our coworker's birthday for lunch. We started with the Mediterranean Sampler - my favorite is the tzatziki. I had a cup of the avgolemono which is a lemony chicken and rice soup that takes me back to my days in Santorini. The birthday guy had the lamb burger which he said was flavorful and juicy. The other two each had entree salads, one of which was the Asian Chicken Salad (see picture). Another had the gluten-free cheese macaroni which I've had before but would recommend it as a side dish with something more savory to complement the cheesey pasta. I enjoyed my usual dish, the polenta and summer veggies. The garlic red sauce and cheese just oozes in between the polenta and vegetables. The portion size will never disappoint as you'll always have enough extra to take home.
I had an incredible experience at this place! As someone with a gluten allergy, I was in heaven here being able to enjoy so many dishes without having to worry. We had pakoras, roasted eggplant, mushroom lovers pizza, savory pancake, Thai tea, and mango lassi. The atmosphere is peaceful, great view of the mountains, and the staff are friendly and thorough with making sure the orders came out perfect. Will definitely be back whenever I'm in town next. <333
Amazing!
It had been years since my last visit and I was hesitant. Having celiac disease, eating can be a headache!
They have a gluten free menu, they’ll prepare your food in a separate area. The manager hand delivered my food and they were extremely kind and helpful! We will definitely be going again! So so happy!
