They have vegan and gluten free and it's really good

Really good gluten-free crepes at this very small restaurant. A little pricey but worth it. They do not have a dedicated kitchen but very aware of cross-contamination.

Cutest place, super friendly service, delicious food & GREAT gluten free options. It’s the best atmosphere and nicest staff. Great breakfast food, yummy bakery items and really great sandwiches. I’m a health nut so I was so happy to see ‘Ronans Power Bowl’ - a huge salad filled with delicious ingredients on the menu.

Healthy Pho is a great place to eat. The soup our waiter, Cameron, recommended was delicious, and we all agreed that we’d absolutely order it again. He was very nice and had some great recommendations. He was also very helpful with finding gluten free options. Their new salted coffee with jellies was very good too. Overall, the experience was great, and we will definitely go back.

I have been twice and both experiences were fabulous. Amazing food and atmosphere with live music both visits. Safe option for those with celiacs :)

The food was supposed to be Gluten Free Pasta, I knew it wasn't because my stomach was very upset and the Red Sauce was way too spicy, I had heartburn from hell. if they change the way the sauce is made then I will reorder food.

I would have given a 5 start if I would have been treated better . Poor customer service . I was doing take out . As I entered I stated for take out I was not greeted with a smile I was simply told in a bothered manner "over there". The place is very noisy music over powering, you are literally yelling to get a person"s attention. The person at take out had her back to us and she could not hear us asking for assistance when she finally saw us she did not greet us with a smile. I told her is this take out she said yes. I proceeded to order . I asked what was going on outside that their were so many people. She said it was a fundraiser for a fallen cop first female cop in florida. Unless you are a regular here and a biker I would never know that, she seemed bothered, Taking our order was not friendly either. It just seems as if the workers in the front pick and choose who they want to be kind too. The workers seemed so high stressed. I hope the manager sees this review and re educates his staff on customer service. This place seems toxic the workers don't seem to get along as the take out lady commented that she hated the hostesses because they forgot our ranch in the order. We also stated no pickle in one of the orders and that order got a pickle. I also asked for gluten free bun. The order was not labeled to identify gluten free. The positive was the food.

I wish the restaurant would put their A/C down and make it a little bit lighter. Food great. I was able to eat glutenfree, I am celiac. So thanl you. Lovely service.

Many great options — to include gluten free options, too! Fast service, hot food, great service & prices. We’ll be back!👍🏻

We stopped in for lunch and had a great experience! I have a gluten sensitivity and they had some bun and pasta options which was awesome! The gluten free burger bun was one of the best I’ve had. Karen is a phenomenal waitress, quick and on top of everything we needed. Highly recommend if you’re in the area!!

“I do not like Indian food.” I used to be able to say that honestly. My wife has always loved Indian food, though, so despite my lack of excitement for the cuisine, I suggested we dine at Flavors of India in North Port/Port Charlotte for lunch. I’m so glad we did. Firstly, our server, John, was absolutely terrific. He was friendly from the moment we walked in, and even offered a suggestion for my own meal (which turned out to be perfect!) I started off with ordering the Chicken Lollipops as an appetizer, which is chicken wings coated in a chili sauce. I really enjoyed that they were crispy fried, but not at all greasy. I would certainly get them again. My wife has some limitations to her diet for health reasons, so it can be difficult to find something she can eat at a restaurant and actually enjoy. She decided to try the Aloo Gobi Masala (gluten free and vegan) and described it as hearty and filling, with a well-balanced heat (she ordered it “hot”), while the veggies were tasty and cooked perfectly. I was unsure about what to get for myself, but was leaning toward a goat dish. John suggested Goat Chettinadu, as I mentioned I also like a lot of heat in my food. This proved to be a marvelous suggestion, as the dish was spectacular. The goat was so tender, and it was served in a creamy sauce that is almost soup-like. I would compare the meat-type to oxtails, as they are little bits of meat attached to the bone, but offer such profound flavors you don’t mind getting your fingers a bit saucy. In fact, I had to remind myself I was in public so that I didn’t go hog-wild on the sauce. The goat was robust in flavor, while the sauce it was cooked in was so smooth it really could be eaten like a soup, it was so creamy and delightful. YUM!! Mix it in your jasmine rice to really take advantage of every drop. On a personal level, I wouldn’t mind bumping the heat level up a bit, which I will ask for the next time I go – and there WILL BE many a “next time”. So now, if I were to say “I don’t like Indian food”, I’d be a big ol’ liar. I just had to find the right stuff, and believe me, Flavors of India has the right stuff. Great service, excellent flavors, and the portions were big enough that an extra-large man such as myself needed boxes to take home the leftovers, which did not last long in the fridge. Oh! I cannot forget that I also ordered Keema Naan, which is naan lightly filled with lamb meat. It was both sweet and savory at the same time, and I recommend it, too. I’m so excited to have found new flavors in this area, and I suggest you give them a try – even if you’re one of those, like I was until last week, that claims “I don’t like Indian food”. Trust me, you may be very wrong about that. I certainly was. And I couldn’t be happier about it.

Great food and many selections including gluten free.

I love the fact that they now have a gluten free menu, seeing as I'm a celiac. The only strike is that the menu doesn't have their price, so I have to flip back and forth between the GF menu and the regular menu to check.

Good food, good staff’ paid attention to ensure my order remained gluten free.
