Order to the left after entering. Some of the best babaganoush I've had...and definitely the best gluten free pita bread I've had - thank you!! I also ordered the lamb schwarma with the same GF pita wrap. Good draft beer selections and pleasant outdoor seating too 🌞
They have gluten free and dairy free choices. We were thrilled to celebrate my friend's 60-something birthday here. We even had leftovers for another meal to remind us of the great food at Olive Garden.
Absolutely breathtakingly Beautiful. The energy in this place was fantastic. I highly recommend this place especially if you are Gluten Free such as myself. Have a blessed day. Thank you for the awesome sauce dinner.
Fresh, flavorful, and flawless. Service is great whether it’s dine in, carry out, or curbside. The staff are friendly and attentive. They never miss when it comes to the beef shawarma, hummus, and garlicky potatoes. I brought my family here for my birthday since we needed gluten free and vegan options, and was happy to say there were optimal options for everyone!
This a "take out" type operation. It's a gas station with a restaurant setup similiar to Chipotle. There are a few tables inside. Didn't expect that. Food was very good. However, if you have gluten concerns, be careful. They have a number of items marked gluten free, which are probably great. But my friend was interested in the beef and lamb bowl. It wasn't noted as gluten free so I asked and the staff said it should be gluten free because it was just beef and lamb. However, it was actually gyro meat which uses wheat as a binder. Service was fine except for this issue but they should know their product. I'd go back.
Two of us in our group ordered gluten free pasta and they served us regular. 😠
Unfortunately, we discovered their mistake during the following very painful 24+ hours.
I have enjoyed gf pasta at other Olive Garden restaurants. This is the first time I've been served gluten at ANY restaurant that I've specifically requested gluten free.
Meddy's food is really a cut above. I've had the hummus, regular pita, pita chips, baba ganoush, salmon, vegetables, and rice. All spectacular. The only food item I would recommend against is the gluten-free pita. Hard as a rock and not very good. Overall, love this place!
We were on a long drive from Texas to KC, and randomly chose this because we love Mediterranean food. We have loved many places, so when I say this was superb, it was! I requested gluten free and got double veggies with my chicken, was so tender! The waitress was so knowledgeable and helpful. My husband got the gyro and the garlic homemade paste was soooo good! We loved it so much, going again on our return trip!
The food here is always 10/10. I usually get the Raja dip (blend of cheeses with pita bread) for an appetizer & the Petra platter (chicken, hummus, vegetables) for main dish. Both are full of flavor and delicious, I could easily eat both of these dishes everyday and be happy. Most dishes include an option of lentil soup or salad to start, both are fantastic. Brought friends who are vegetarian & gluten free (they have gluten free pita!!) and both found great options to eat. Take out & dine in available, if you dine in there’s usually no wait times!
Service was amazing! We had a gluten allergy and the manager came out and explained the process, which was extremely attentive and helpful! Our server was also extremely efficient, attentive, and friendly!
I've been here a couple of times and really like the food. Really highly recommend the nick fries and the beef and lamb gyro. The baklava is also great! The service is great. I have a gluten free family member and they helped me make sure what I ordered was gluten free.
So thrilled to find this sweet little Mediterranean restaurant in Topeka Kansas has gluten-free pita bread and several different options. The stuffed olive leaves are to die for. The hummus gyro Sandwich 😋 yummmmm I couldn't even get a picture of the whole thing it smelled too good!
This restaurant is a quick stop off of I-70 if you're coming through Topeka. Check it out they do to go and are super-duper fast.
Gluten Free Menu Items: I frequent this place a lot, once a found out about my wonderful celiac disease (oh so fun) I needed gluten free. Here are thier menu items offered.
Sensational. This is our go to restaurant for the BEST food in the city. Excellent service, great atmosphere and the food is perfection. They are wonderful for those who are gluten free. 10/10 . It’s also a great place for cocktails. Well worth every dollar spent! Love it!
I’ve always loved YaYa’s brunch buffet—it was my go-to spot for a delicious and satisfying meal. The variety of options was amazing, and everything was always fresh and flavorful. Unfortunately, after discovering my gluten allergy, I haven’t been able to enjoy the buffet the same way, but I still think highly of it. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff is always friendly and attentive. Even though I can’t partake in the buffet anymore, YaYa’s is still a great spot for anyone looking for a fantastic brunch experience!
Food was good, service was fine. The rice is like 50% pasta. I have a gluten intolerance and had already eaten some of the rice. I asked the server if it had pasta. She said yes and walked away. She didn’t seem to care, so I sent this message on Facebook with no reply in a week: lJust wanted to send something from someone with a gluten intolerance. The menu says “with rice” on several entrees. Turns out there is pasta in the rice, so I couldn’t eat it. Probably ought to disclose it’s not just rice, but also has pasta. Just a suggestion!” Be aware the rice has pasta in it.
Clean dining room. Family friendly atmosphere and good prices. Our service was excellent. The kids love the breadsticks and they have Gluten free options.
We had a lovely lunch at Cafe Maurice. Our server Rachel was knowledgeable about gluten free and dairy free options. Hummus with the veggie plate is fantastic, and highly recommend the mixed grill kabobs.

Beautiful new restaurant with wonderful food. For a Monday night (just opened), it was pretty busy. We did have a hiccup with service getting a wrong dish for my husband (which they made up for with a credit). It worked out for the better as there wasn't any gluten-free on the menu, so the chef created the rotisserie chicken into gluten free and it was excellent. The beet salad with grilled chicken was delicious and so was the squash soup with candied carrots and sumac. A lovely experience all around, but be ready to spend some money.
