I was visiting some friends and they recommended this place for dinner. Food was ok, nothing exceptional or different. The plates were huge and the food was heavy. Nothing to accommodate a gluten allergy.

Good choice of unique salads (I'm vegetarian keto, my friend is gluten free carnivore) and you can add lots of toppings. We sat outside which, although noisy from road, was still nice! Will be back!

It's a very nice cozy place, service is good and employees are very friendly. But i wish they had more healthy options like gluten-free, real matcha tea, more tea, low sugar treats, but overall good salads! And open at late afternoon or evening.

I have become a bit of a connoisseur when it comes to gluten free pizza crusts. I just ordered a gluten free pepperoni pizza from Showtime Pizzeria and it was totally delicious. If it’s not my favorite GF crust it’s very close to it. The sauce, cheese, and meat were also top notch! Friendly staff too. If you’re on the fence about where to eat, I definitely recommend this spot!
