Had an excellent lunch experience at Luna today. Service was great from start to finish. They have plenty of vegan/vegetarian and gluten free options. We chose the cauliflower tacos and paella. Both were exceedingly delicious. Ambience is fun with sunny colors. Highly recommend this place!

Linnea's is my favorite cafe! So many tea options, and the workers are welcoming and nice! The back garden is very relaxing and a great place to study or catch some live music. Many vegan and gluten free options for those with dietary restrictions. Tea and coffee loyalty cards can help you save some money if you become a repeat customer (like me)!

Our host, Christopher was so knowledgeable with items on the menu and sensitive to my gluten allergies; double checking on items to make sure they were safe for me to enjoy. He came back to check on us multiple times as did other waiters to refill our water glasses. The Nada Colada mocktail was to die for. Be prepared to eat art as every dish had the appearance of a masterpiece, which I appreciate. I gave 4/5 stars on food as I do feel the flavors could be elevated on some dishes such as the cauliflower soup and coconut pie. We will be back and are delighted that our furr babies can join us out on the patio. Views of creekside made for a fine dining experience.

Went in for a late lunch on a Tuesday. It was pretty quiet with just some regulars. I got a gluten free Luna burger. It was excellent!! My boyfriend got the Bogy burger and some onion rings and thoroughly enjoyed both as well. I wish we had saved room for a milkshake because they looked delicious. The staff was excellent but Jenny, in particular, is an absolute gem! Soooo kind, friendly, and attentive. Would 100% go back!

skip the gluten-free pancakes :( Dry and tasteless gf pancakes, and I know from experience that good gf pancakes are attainable with the right ingredients. They were a nice size, though. Plus, the waitress ignored my request for more syrup and butter, which is a very unusual request coming from me, but something had to be done to those discs! LOL

The boneless wings are coated and fried in a gluten free flour and taste great! The staff were very kind about confirming with the kitchen that the wings were indeed gluten free. The manager even came out with the recipe for the wings.

This is not just a restaurant, but an experience. There’s an old-school 1970’s/1980’s Americana vibe, and the food is REALLY good! Had Bennedict and the hollandaise was just ok (probably a mix), but a nice thick slab of ham on gluten free bread and perfectly crispy hash browns and fruit, which tasted very fresh. And of course anyone who stops MUST eat cake there, which is super fluffy and whipped creamy. The pink one is what they’re famous for

My girlfriend and I, along with our two dogs made a stop here after exploring the many trials of Los Osos has to offer. We built up an appetite. Open entering we were greeted by our host - the place had a very cool vibe, he was very friendly and greeted us with a smile, he immediately offered up a water bowl to our dogs - this was b4 we had the chance to ask him if the establishment was dog friendly ✅. We were lead to the counter where we placed our orders. Tri-tip French dip, chicken salad and a couple cups of pozole + a couple glasses of wine. Seating was plentiful and comfortable but mostly outdoors. We found a table and waited for our order, both our dogs got their own seats :) The ambiance at this place is awesome; very cool art, fun and edgy decor and awesome music - we heard mostly 90’s: alt and hip hop. Rage against the machine comes to mind. The food came out quickly and with a smile. Tri-dip dip dip was insanely good and made with gluten free bread, chicken salad was on point and the pozole was hellza legit; it also came with a side of their sourdough which was extremely good. Beerwood is a wonderful establishment. Will plan another visit next time I’m in town

Sheila Genova

Not many vegetarian and no gluten-free options. I had a salad and threw about four dried shrimp on top. The skinny drinks with gin were very good! It was way too hot which was not their fault and we should have sat outside. And it was very loud

Lucy Swanson

Other reviews do a great job of describing how good the food is. True! I just want to add that the menu does accommodate those of us who are gluten intolerant. Both the breakfast and lunch menus include gf choices. They also toast up gf croutons for their [generous] salads. I take home loaves of their delicious gf breads, slice them up and freeze some of the slices to toast later. Some days they have gf cookies, also. They are generous with samples if you want to make sure you will like your order.

As a native northeastener, good east coast thin crust is hard to find in California. The pizza here is delicious. Had the sausage and pepperoni - just the right amount of char, very tasty, ate the whole thing in record time and will come back for more. Friendly fast service too and there’s a gluten free crust option. Hot tip: get your pizza to go and hit the great cider selection at Cider Bar next door, if you like cider you’ll be glad you did. A+ recommended!

Maison Dandar

Food was AMAZING! The staff and chef were very accommodating to our food allergies. ( Dairy and Gluten) We will be back again!

Rachel Stephens

Legitimately the best poke bowl I've had from Hawaii to New York. As of today, for $21.95 you get 4 large scoops of protein plus 3 sides which can also be protein like spicy tuna or avocado or mac salad. All of the sauces are gluten free and made with tamari! Only a couple items weren't gluten free, such as the fish eggs. I felt like I was waddling out of this place it was so filling the entire day. I absolutely will be back! PS: the don't take cash so make sure you have a card.

Susan Gale

Husband had a tasty burger, very reasonable. No gluten free options so I couldn't eat with him.

Great food. Friendly people. Wish they had gluten free bun option as the lettuce wrap was more like a lettuce bowl.

Mary giddish

Stopped for first time Sunday at 12:30. Extremely busy, but a lot of staff. Had to wait a long time for breakfast because I think they forgot ours at first. Coffee pots were out and would be nice if they offered a gluten free bagel sandwich or gf bread option.

Christine Noppenberg

The staff here are awesome-- friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and very accommodating! We have a lot of dietary restrictions, including gluten free, but our whole family was able to eat here! Incredibly delicious-- we highly recommend it!

I love pizza. I seriously love it. I consider it one of the greatest creations of mankind. We usually order pizza once per week for our movie nights. Before Bravo opened up we usually ordered from Nucci's on Broad, and if we went out we usually went to Petra's. Gino's for after sports events (great pizza plus the arcade games). Having lived in the Midwest 10 years, I appreciate a classic non-nonsense good pizza. I love foodie pizzas too (Flour House is great), but my favorite is still a classic pizza. When Bravo opened up it was quite a bit closer to us than Nucci's, so we thought we'd give it a shot, expecting we'd probably stick with Nucci's since we really liked their pizza as well. Turns out the entire family loves Bravo pizza more than any other pizza place in town. My wife enjoys their salads, and often orders a fancier pizza (cauliflower crust, gluten free, supreme, BBQ, white sauce, you name it) whereas I typically go with the classic--pepperoni, sometimes cheese. Best pizza in SLO in my humble opinion. For a classic pizza, you can't beat Bravo. Fair price, always friendly staff.

Great breakfast spot! I have gone here many times over the past 20 years since I was a student at Cal Poly and it never disappoints! I usually get the Buzz Burrito with chorizo, it is very filling and I could barely finish it! You could even share that with a friend. My wife is Gluten Free so they made her the Buzz Burrito without the tortilla. Basically the burrito filling on a plate and she really liked it. They have your standards like omelettes, Benedicts, scrambles, fruit juice, coffee, etc. On the weekends it can be REALLY popular and you might have to wait. They don't take reservations. Indoor and outdoor seating options. Friendly staff, good service. Highly recommend!

We went for dinner tonight (Tuesday) and really enjoyed our food. My husband had the best scallops. Our server took excellent care of our whole table and accommodated our request for gluten free options. I don’t remember her name but she had the best pink hair! We will be back!
