Restaurant was clean. The waitstaff was helpful and patient as we had never been there before. The food was good; we ordered fries, two different wraps, a hog boss, a sandwich, and a burger. We also ordered onion rings, they weren’t the best-a little soggy (gluten and gluten free eaters all agreed), but everything else was great! Five people ate lunch for about $100 and we were full. Would definitely eat there again if in the area.
First visit here was several years ago on an overnight stay for a concert. Today I had to go back because that time was so good. Today I went and sat at the bar for brunch the staff (all 4 I encountered) were friendly and helpful answering questions and making suggestions that made my visit amazing. I went for this avocado toast gluten free with added egg and coffee, followed up with a citrus drink they mixed for me (not cocktail) that was the perfect refresher after the delicious meal. 10/10 recommend going here when in Grand Rapids, it is a super adorable yet smaller space so try to go outside the typical meal times or be patient and willing to wait. It’s worth it in my opinion.
Came here for Father-In-Laws birthday, and was not disappointed! Food was absolutely delicious with plenty of gluten free options for my partner. The drinks were thoughtful and well priced, and had us wanting to try them all. Last, but definitely not least, our server Kailey was amazing! She was very personable, knowledgeable, and entertaining. We'll definitely be back!
I enjoyed everything about this place. The options for tacos was beyond expectation. The host was very hospitable. I love the menu set up, you fill out your order at your table. Everything is marked if it is gluten or dairy free. Service was great. Price was very reasonable.
Food was excellent. My peach margaritas was just the way
I like it...tart 😊 They also have a pet friendly deck you can enjoy with your furry friend.
Great good and even better service. My wife has celiac and they went above and beyond to clean the area and avoid contamination at all costs. She said her sandwich was delicious and no allergic reaction after so their attention to detail paid off! Thank you to the staff and we will be getting another round of subs tonight!
Added our name to a waitlist on a Saturday - we were 20th in line, but it seemed to move quickly. We ordered Smash Burgers and Build Your Own Breakfast. Burgers were great and the breakfast was cooked to order, they have a handful of gluten free and vegetarian options too. Everyone was pleased with the food and we got a big chocolate chip cookie to go from the bakery. The service was friendly, but absent. When we were seated, we waited 15 min before anyone greeted us or took our drink orders. I assumed they had forgotten about our table and that feeling continued throughout the meal. Overall we had a nice brunch, seems like a good restaurant for families, friends, and couples.
This was our first time at Morning Belle and it didn’t disappoint! Our waitress, Kenzie, made great suggestions for us to try as well as accommodating me at a table that would be more comfortable for me to sit in. She was attentive to our needs and was patient with our questions. Her food suggestions were spot on! Everything came out hot and delicious. The cinnamon roll was the perfect first starter and could easily be shared. I love that they had Gluten Free bread that tasted like regular bread and my omelet, The Hummingbird, was light, delicious and plated beautifully. We will be back again for this morning treat. Thank you Kenzie!
Favorite restaurant chain!! We're so fortunate to have truly healthy options at a price that competes with standard fast food options! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but the gluten free mac n cheese & the Macha smoothie are staples!
Worst ramen I’ve had- very bland and did not taste authentic. A lot of authentic ramen shops offer soba noodles, which are a great gluten free option, but the noodles here did not compare, and dissolved in the broth immediately, which was very unappetizing.
Excellent sushi, service is very good, and it's fairly quiet so conversation can happen (in between bites of great food). Gluten free soy available on request.
Stumbled upon this place after my family and I landed on our way to Petoskey. I was so thankful that they had many gluten free options and made everything in house it was soooo good. And out service was absolutely amazing.
I came here for the gluten free options and did get glutened. The waitress was not at all knowledgeable about gluten and reassured me multiple times that the ‘cookie’ in my milkshake was gluten free, but it was made with wheat flour. Proceed with extreme caution if you are highly sensitive to gluten or have celiac.
Stopped in after a Lego event downtown. The only tables they had were Hightower, which were not my favorite. I enjoyed splitting a gluten-free pizza and a nice salad with my wife. Both were very good. The salad may have been even better. The kids only had a little food to take home. The best moment there was when there was a dad and a toddler waiting for the bathroom. After waiting, they discover there is no changing table in the men's. The speak to the servers and the servers post guard outside the women's for him. As a father and human, I really appreciated that. Enjoyed this place and would go again.
This place is dangerous! i live upstairs and probably go here way to often, and when i dont go here for my morning coffee i feel like im missing out. the pastry's are delicious! even the gluten free vegan ones, which is hard to say from other places. and the coffee is a delight, made with love every time. hearts in the foam even in a to go cup.
I have always loved Clean Juice for having healthy gluten free options. My mom and I decided to try the gluten free bread instead of the wraps, and it is all crumbly and broken, even before attempting to eat it. I’ve had these sandwiches before, and they are always toasted, yet they came cold. For $30, absolutely outrageous
One of my go-to spots for Chinese close to downtown Grand Rapids. The staff is very friendly, the food is amazing, and I don't have to worry about my dietary restrictions since gluten free and dairy free items are clearly listed on the menu

They have lots of options for everyone including vegetarian and gluten free options. The food is good for a "fast food" type place, nothing incredible but always tasty.
The gluten free options were extremely limited and uninteresting. Our server was polite but not well informed about which things could be made gluten free. Somehow roe sashimi could not be made gluten free. I've been to dozens of sushi restaurants, and I'd say my roll was on par with Meijer deli. Except it was room temperature. My husband's food was not gluten free, and he enjoyed his meal more. We will definitely not return.
My wife and I went here for dinner. We both had th OG gyro. She modified hers to be gluten-free. Mine was regular. We loved the flavor of our gyros. I thought the bread was fantastic. My fries were good, but my wife's rice was a bit disappointing. Both of us were very impressed with the value and low prices. We'll definitely be back.
Everyone is super nice! Establishment is clean and organized. They really care about gluten allergies and keeping customers safe! As soon as I said I was ordering for my girlfriend who has celiacs disease (gluten allergy) they immediately took their gloves off and put on a new pair and communicated to one another about needing to make her sub in their designated gluten free prep zone. Really appreciate the attention detail! Keep it up! We'll be back. Thanks!
Good burger. Gluten-free pizza is AWESOME. Everyone loves their pizza.
It is odd that no one has reviewed their burger at this location yet, but here goes.
- Classic Burger - $13: Half pound patty, ordered medium and was served medium to medium well. It was medium quality meat. I liked the shredded lettuce. It was a tad on the sloppy side with the mayo and ketchup I ordered, but was tasty. The bun was a tad tough on the exterior, but plenty soft otherwise. Served in a wire basket on wax/paraffin paper, which is unique.
Overall, I have no complaints at all. The price was actually spot on compared to what is out there, the quality you get, and the size of the patty. Actually, if you factor in the fries, it is great value.
- Fries - (comes with the burger): Excellent battered fries. A tad thicker, served hot, and goes down easy. Cooked just right, soft inside, crispy outside, and delicious.
- 10” Gluten Free Cauliflower Crust Pizza - $17+toppings: Expensive, but the best I know. I couldn’t even tell it was gluten-free or cauliflower! It is my daughter’s favorite, so I decided to check it out with her. It is a thinner crust, but still soft. It is greasy. Everything about it is true to the Vitale’s mode of operation. Tons of toppings, full of flavor, and absolutely delicious!
With Pepperoni and bacon, it cost $19. For a 10” that fits on a dinner plate rather than a pizza pan, it is not much. My daughter will take leftovers home and have two meals to eat, though.
Vitale’s knows pizza. That’s for sure!!
- Service: Happy, pleasant, helpful, and punctual. We were taken care of very well. Nothing was left undone for more than a minute.
- Atmosphere: Casual and a bit of an American bar and grill feel. Sports is a huge emphasis, but they have a wing with a bit more classy feel to it that they open during higher volume times. It was generally clean and well kept. Our table was quote wobbly, though (very back corner on the northwest).
- Conclusion: I’d recommend their burger and HIGHLY recommend their pizza.
If you are gluten-free and want a special treat, this is THE place in Grand Rapids for sure!
Visited on a Tuesday at 5pm.
Visited for the first time today, it was a great experience! The ladies at the counter were very friendly. I ordered a Masala chai, and she warned me that it is spicier than most chais, which I was all for, but I appreciated the warning. It was delicious! The kitchen for lunch didn't open for another 5 minutes, so I looked around at local artist's displays, and local goodies they had for sale. It was also nice to just sit in a comfortable chair and wait for my food to be brought out to me. I ordered the farmers wife sandwich on gluten free bread, which had great flavor. Generous on the goat cheese and avocado spread. All in all - excellent experience, can't wait to be back, and will probably spend more of my lunches here!
We went here for our first wedding anniversary date and it was a gorgeous place with a great atmosphere! I have a gluten allergy and my server assured me it was safe. My entree arrived and I questioned the runner because I thought the gluten free noodle was penne, she went to the kitchen to check and told me this was the gluten free. About 3 bites in someone ran out to tell me it was wrong and took it back. I was extremely upset, the manager was kind and comped the bill but I was super sick after and it truly ruined the night. 2 weeks out now and my system is still recovering, it was a huge setback for my health. I would be very careful if you have food allergies here
Such a good place! The waitress we had tonight was great. She was always on top of things (refilling drinks, asking how things were, etc.). My girlfriend and I shared some chili (pretty good for an Italian sports bar). I got the Uccellos special pizza (always so good) and she got the gluten free pasta in the pesto cream sauce (she said it was pretty good for being gluten free pasta. We recommend Bistro Bella Vita if you want the best gluten free pasta in GR). Overall, very good quality of food and service, with tons of screens for sports as well.
I'm happy they have a Gluten Free menu but they still got multiple things wrong on our order and didn't correct it very quickly so we could eat the rest of our meal warm.
Unfortunate.
Such a cute place! I'm in love with their Alaskan Roll, and they were super helpful with gluten-free options and even offer GF soy sauce. Great lunch deals, and very reasonable prices all around for some excellent sushi.
Edit: this is 100% the worst burger I’ve ever had in my life. The bun is so stale it tastes like sand, the burger meat is dry and crispy, the cheese isn’t melted and the onions are mushy and soggy. Super gross 🤢
Not only is this specific Culver’s always lined up around the building, they’ve gotten my order wrong the last four times I’ve been there. Which I genuinely don’t mind—I’ve worked in restaurants things happen—but they’re actual FOOD is so nasty. It’s *always* extremely stale, just at this location unfortunately. Every single time I’ve been there. I need a GF bun, they’ve given me regular bun twice which is extremely dangerous. The fries I got today were stale, soggy and cold and the burger looks so, so gross. Like it was cooked at 10 AM and it’s now being served at 10 PM. The cheese is on the bottom of the box so it just melted to the paper so it all peeled off and this gluten free bun, as always with this location, is beyond stale. I took it out of the bag and it started to crumble. I’ve been very understanding because everyone is so short staffed and we all know how horrible it is to work in fast food…but I think the kitchen staff needs to start paying attention.
Just take the time to go to the other Culver’s and skip this location.
Our favorite neighborhood spot with the friendliest service and delicious drinks (and toasts). Also a great selection of gluten and dairy free snacks to bring home!
I make a point of ordering from Sheshco each time I travel to Grand Rapids. Each thing I've tried was fabulous, and I've yet to finish the huge portion in one go. A really easy place for eating gluten free- just skip the fresh pita- if you dare!
Quaint little local spot that my husband & I like to visit frequently. The coffee is good & they serve gluten-free/dairy-free baked goods (from a local bakery), as well as normal ones, which I appreciate! The space/parking can be a bit tight at times, but other than that, we love it! The staff is always welcoming, kind & efficient - just overall a good vibe!
Great little ice cream shop! They have a wide array of options, including actual food! They also have dairy free ice cream options and gluten free cones! Lots of flavors and combinations to choose from, and they have a nice little seating area. When the server goofs up, they are quick to remedy the problem. Nothing but great service thus far. Will definitely be frequenting this place!
This is a regular stop in GR for me when family is visiting. So many vegetarian options and some gluten-free options! Also went to a drag brunch here and that was aaaaah-mazing
As a gluten free and diabetic eater, I was impressed and grateful for the cloud bread burger. Best burger and bun I've had in years. Service was also excellent.
