Food was good. We got their beignets and some breakfast stacker crepes. My Celiac wife forgot to tell them that she was gluten free so they had to remake the dish for her. They were very nice about it. Only reason for lack of star was server wasn’t very attentive and forgot silverware
I’m a vegetarian, and the main menu has almost no meat-free dishes—but Winston’s actually is vegetarian friendly as long as you say something to the waiter. They have a complete alternative menu available: the front lists vegetarian and vegan dishes, and the back has gluten-free dishes. I can’t speak to the gluten-free options, but the vegan and vegetarian choices are excellent!
It saddens me to write a negative review. My husband and I order all the time. How are the past two times there’s been issues. I have a gluten allergy, therefore always have to order the gluten-free pizzette. It’s one of my favorites in Raleigh! The past two times it’s come on the normal pita. The store was very kind on fixing the issue the first time. However, tonight I called and everything else came fine and normal except for mine. I called back and explained the situation and thanked them that we at least had the gluten-free pita. I spoke to a very sweet woman who then transferred me to this man. I am only assuming he Is the manager And if he is, I’m so sorry. All he kept saying was it was not his fault it was DoorDash’s fault and that I was being rude. I was crying. I just had surgery and my emotions are everywhere but the one thing I wanted was my gluten-free fig mint pizzette and this guy was just telling me I was being rude and hurting his feelings. I don’t know when crying and getting upset was being rude. If it is, I apologize. However, I will think twice before ordering or going to Sassool
A go-to date night spot for me and my husband. Convenient parking, delicious food, and a unique atmosphere…this restaurant checks all the boxes. Additionally, I have celiac disease and therefore must avoid gluten completely. I never seem to have issues here and they always accommodate & modify my favorite taco (the carne) to make it gluten free. It’s a toss up which dip is the best…they are all amazing. I’ve never had a bad taco here, and my husband loves their burrito el guapo. If you love tacos, don’t hesitate to eat here. By far the best tacos in Raleigh.
Hands down one of the best gluten free buns! Anytime I’m craving a burger, this is where we go. Most of the time when I ask for the gluten free bun they ask immediately if it’s an allergy before I can even say it. I’m celiac but saying it’s an allergy is usually easier. They do NOT have a dedicated fryer so stay away from the fries and tater tots unfortunately.
GLUTEN FREE BUNS! (+$3 for GF bun) EXCELLENT BURGERS! I ordered a build your own with Swiss cheese, sautéed onions, sautéed mushrooms, and garlic mayo and smoked mayo as my two condiments. Everything is just bursting with flavor. I agree with another reviewer, you can taste the quality. Both mayos were delicious, but the garlic mayo stole the show. My family is convinced this is the best burger place in town and it has become our go-to for burgers.
Indoor and outdoor seating, or you can sit at the bar. We usually enjoy the outdoor seating.
Decent cappuccino and breakfast sandwich with gluten free bread was great! Service was very fast! Went in on a Tuesday around 830am. Place was very busy, all tables full, four or five people ahead of me in line and others waiting for orders, and I was still in and out in less than 10 minutes. They had counterculture and black and white coffee available. Roast dates on available whole bean coffee bags were within a week.
They are allergy friendly AND knowledgable. They were super accommodating to the person with celiac in our group. As a result she was able to eat and enjoy no problem. Not to mention that the brisket was divine.
A local Mediterranean grill near my gym, so I can get a healthy, gluten-free, high protein lunch after I work out. They are gluten aware and can provide GF flatbread and safe handling. I just like to get a custom bowl, basically a Mediterranean salad with lamb on top. Delicious.
sadly, this location is VERY understaffed! I hope that might be why our burgers were both made wrong (asked for no mayo, got mayo; asked for no cheese on the other burger, got cheese). We have had decent burgers from this location in the past, and I am happy to report they do have a gluten free burger bun, which is fairly tasty and holds together well.
Atmosphere is DEAD, very much so. It is hardly busy at peak dinner hours, which is sad really.
Hidden Gem in a plaza area. It's not fancy but the food and service is excellent. Some of it is hot and spicy as I expected for Thai. It's a good hot! They also have Thai beer and wine. Also, they have Gluten-free options, you just have to ask. They will make especially for you.
Overall, good breakfast spot, with nice selection and good staff.
BUT, if pancakes are your thing for breakfast, go somewhere else. The pancakes are tougher than a thick leather belt. I imagine they stir the batter with every single order that goes on the griddle so, by 9am, its just a mass of rubbery gluten.
Bring sharp teeth and a steak knife for the pancakes.
Amazing experience here! They have gluten free pasta and are very aware of cross contamination and how to avoid in their kitchen. Food was delicious and ambiance was unmatched!
My fiancé and I live across the street from this place and it’s been a hit every time! I am gluten intolerant and they are always super great about working with me on that and are able to make almost any dish gluten free for me! You can tell the food is made with love and care and it’s family owned which I also love. My fiancé loves the ramen and the buns, and I love all of their noodle dishes! Take out is always a breeze as well. And they always include chopsticks and napkins, never have to be weary about missing anything. If you haven’t been here yet, you need to!
The front of house staff were very friendly but unfortunately there were hardly any gluten free options. The fryer (and all apps except one) were cross contaminated, and few entrees were exclusively gluten free even with modifications. Ended up with a burger (which was delicious), but no fries etc.
Always awesome!
Food quality is excellent
Service is excellent
Alot of great options on the menu to choose from. They definitely focus more on the ingredients and quality. Much better choice than other local places by far!
Portion sizes are just right but bring your appetite and try a few things..you can always bring it home.
Atmosphere is excellent. Nicely done inside. Well lit, clean, updated and they offer various style seating sections and Tvs if needed to watch something.
It's usually crowded but they will do their best to get you seated.
Has a bar, many drink options so no worries there! I am sure you will find what you need!
Outside seating; they also have an outside section that is definitely worth choosing. Very nice ambiance and set up..heaters all over if it's cold but on a nice night it's worth it
Price: better quality food, excellent cooking and worth the price.
Definitely frequent Wakefield Tavern. One of the best out there.
Gluten free options are one of the best out there.
Pasta, pizzas are delicious.
Overall; Head over and enjoy...certainly worth it!
I’ve lived close to this place for almost 10 years. I am sad to say that it took me that long to try Ni Asian. This place is awesome. Their whole menu is great. They also have a good 20 items that are Dairy Free and Gluten Free. Highly recommend!!
My mother recently traveled to Columbia and fell in love with the culture and the food. She wanted to share that with us, and so we ventured to The Arepa Bar! Every bite was incredible, and the owner was so friendly and welcoming, helping us order to maximize value and get the most authentic Columbian experience. Two members of our party also have celiac, and it was amazing to have so many totally safe options for them! Mom felt like she was right back in the country, and we all can't wait to return for another meal soon!
My friend and decided to check this place out and are so happy that we did! Loved the atmosphere and the service. They had quite a few options for me that could be made gluten free and vegan. I was very excited this was the case.
I decided to try the Creamy Coconut Rice Noodles with tofu. My friend and I split the Lettuce Wraps and Spring Rolls, both with tofu. They did have to give me a different sauce for both of those since the sauces that came with them weren't gluten free.
Overall, the food was phenomenal! So fresh tasting and filling with a wonderful flavor profile. I will definitely be back!
So I’ve heard good things about this place for a couple of years and my daughter asked to go for pizza. I need gluten free meals so we called in advance to ask and they do have pizza crust and pasta that is GF. When we got seated no one came up right away to take drink orders. Then a waitress finally said let me check who is going to take your table. We got another waitress who took our drink order shortly after that but our drinks didn’t appear for a while. All the other tables seemed to have drinks and food. When she finally brought the drinks I told her we would order food since we had her attention. It was an hour now and no food. We ordered a large pizza for our kids, a gluten free pizza and salad. The other waitress told me she saw I looked confused and would check on our food after more time passed. Our waitress came out after some more time with a salad and said our other food was coming soon. Then 25 more minutes passed as we saw tables who came in after us get their food and finish up, etc. The other waitress told us again she would check on our food and she was sure it was coming. Finally my gluten free pizza came out first BUT it wasn’t what I ordered. I was super disappointed since it’s been almost 2 hours now. Our waitress offered to make us a new one but honestly I didn’t have two more hours to wait and sit there. We just told her please bring out our kid’s pizza because they are very hungry. They did. She kept apologizing but then brought the check with no discount, etc. Not sure how this place will bring me back for a second time at this point. We are nice people so we still tipped a little bit but would have been nice to admit what happened there. Hopefully their service gets better.
Everyone here was super hospitable and the vibe was very romantic. We were seated immediately with our reservation, our server was so attentive and the chef brought us an apple swan, which was so sweet! The sushi rolls were so fresh and beautifully presented! I’m gluten free and they made sure to bring gluten free soy sauce! We had a wonderful experience:) Would recommend for a date night!
Best biscuit I’ve ever tasted. I try to be gluten free but I couldn’t refuse and loved every bite. The line was out the door but moved quickly and food came quickly.
Maybe one of the worst experiences I have had at a restaurant. Had to wait several minutes for someone to take my order. And then they had no idea what was gluten free and what wasn’t.
Ended up with nachos, which were just ok. Don’t have enough chips and when I asked for more to have with the toppings, they wanted to charge me for more chips.
Won’t be back.
I frequently visit this place during my lunch break because it is close to my job. The Cobb salad is crazy good! I have allergies and they can accommodate me! They have gluten free options and I just tell them what I can't have and ....boom! Magic!
Food was delicious, only criticism I have is the lentils were crunchy and needed to be cooked longer, but service was very good! Would recommend, especially when looking for gluten free/ dairy free options!
Excellent meal & service with 1 suggestion:
Our dinner was absolutely excellent! Our server Ashley was friendly and efficient. We arrived with a reservation Saturday evening and were seated immediately in a nice comfy large booth. We started with a glass of Quilt Cab and an iced tea, then ordered our starters of Bistro salad which was so fresh, crisp w/delicious dressing and my husband had the Million Dollar Pie as his app to enjoy with his Cab. He devoured that pie in minutes!
For dinner we ordered the Hashtag Tuna which came with rice, broccoli, and delicious soy sauce drizzle all over of which he said was incredible and filling. I had the Short Rib w/polenta w/asparagus and it was dynamite! I could only eat 1/2 so my husband finished mine then said both were excellent but he loved his tuna best.
Another glass of Cabernet, plenty refills on my tea w/refreshed ice, then I decided there is always room for some chocolate ice cream/gelato. I think it was the best gelato I’ve ever had (in the USA)… if you like brownie flavored chocolate, you’ll love this! Creamy and delish.
By 5:30pm the restaurant was packed, every seat at the bar taken, almost every table, glad we had a reservation as a few couples were turned away that walked in, as they were booked full for the night. I see why! The music was upbeat. Seeing the bustling of the kitchen. Nice decor. Delicious food. Quilt by the glass is elevated. Our bill was $167 plus tip. PS I’m Gluten Free and they can make most every dish to accommodate!
Negative: obviously this must not bother most but it did me. Before we left I had to use the ladies room, our server pointed me in the direction, and it’s 2 (1 person) bathrooms that men or women can use. I didn’t like that I went in after a man, the seat was up so I used paper towels to put the seat down, there was pee on the floor, upon exiting another man was waiting on me to enter. I’m sure these were very nice men…but I did not like “sharing” a toilet with a man. This is not political, this is just the thought of me putting a toilet seat down from a stranger man seems very odd for such a nice restaurant. They could have a separate ladies and men’s room which I’m sure they’ve thought of but choose to do it this way.
