It was my first time visiting cheesetique. I just moved to the neighborhood so I wanted to check it out. For reference this Restaurant has gluten free options but they forgot and served me gluten free bread! I have an autoimmune disease that is sensitive to gluten so hence why I am gluten free. My husband and I ordered gluten free appetizers and he got the pasta. Then my sandwich came and I didnt know if it was GF. The bread looked gf but it tasted different than gf. I began to eat it when the waitress came by 10 mins later to check on us I asked her to confirm if it was GF and she looked at me saying whoops, "no, so sorry." I trusted her given our long convo about gluten free about all our other items. I don't know if she forgot or the chef and kitchen didnt read the notes but we were clear I was GF. The manager came by apologized told us he took off my sandwich but we shared with him if it was more severe someone could have died or gotten more sick... which can be a lawsuit. I told him he should have comped us for the entire meal. It was unacceptable. He then promptly said dont worry about paying. We left a tip for our waitress still but we are very disappointed about our experience and the mistake. This experience occurred on Aug 2nd and 7pm. We left the restaurant with our food items to go at around 8:30pm.

This is great Indian food with a labeled gluten free (gf) menu on their website that is also available for delivery on DoorDash. We got the gluten free nan, gf tandoori wings, gf chicken tikka masala, gf spinach porkora and my wife and daughter got several non gf items.

Love Holy Cow because the food is good and they have lots of gluten free options. However, on two recent occasions I’ve found things in my food that should not be there… today I ordered takeout and my husband and I both found hair in our food. On another occasion I found dragonfly wings under my burger. Would have asked for a new meal, but we ordered takeout and were already home when we noticed. Love this place but makes me a little concerned to order again!

I had not been here in about 8 years but my brain remembered that the food was amazing. I'm now gluten free and I was impressed by the options. The food was phenomenal just like I remembered. The prices weren't as high as I remembered which was a nice treat!

Love their espresso beans for home! They have a nice selection of pastries, both gluten free and regular.
