It’s clean and like any other sprouts but the only reason I gave 4 stars is because I have celiac and they didn’t seem to have many gf options. The one brand of gf bread they had was not good. They did have gf pizzas.

Best pizza I’ve found in La Mesa but still much better pizza to be had around San Diego. It’s had really high hopes for this place based on reviews. It was not busy when I was there and the girl behind the counter was very nice and friendly. The crust was good but just a little bit thick for me. Biggest thing was I didn’t care for their sauce. It was really disappointing. They do have lots of good and interesting pizzas ( similar to Luigi’s and Mr Moto). Slices are $5 each. It’s also Kosher and they do have gluten free crust available (not in individual slices though, I don’t think).

After following Extraordinary Banana Pudding on social for a while now, finally drove to try it out. So glad I did! They have a wide selection of flavors and some vegan and gluten free options too. I picked up four flavors: red velvet, chocolate chip cookie dough, banana bread and the classic banana pudding. My opinion, go with the classics! So delicious! I loved the classic and the banana bread flavor. The pudding is airy and fluffy, and so flavorful. Hit the spot! Love seeing this local small business thriving.

I am so sad. I wanted to love this place. I skipped dinner last night and partied, so I was looking forward to a big breakfast. It was big but I didn't even finish it.
I ordered the sunshine omelet with gluten-free pancakes and a coffee. They did bring extra gf pancakes because they are smaller than normal ones. I was very excited then the food came out. The pancakes were burnt (the food filter on my camera makes them look dark golden, but they were burnt) and doughy at the same time. They did let me sample the apple syurp, which was good. The omelet was ok but did not live up to the hype. The coffee was watered down. With tip, it was over $30.
The staff was amazing. They offer a military discount.

The service was excellent. They seated us immediately upon walking in. We asked for the outdoor seating. It was roomy but quaint. Our drink order was taken, the margaritas were wonderful, as were the kids' drinks. Menu was clearly marked for gluten-free options and for options needing accommodation to be gluten-free. Waitress was knowledgeable about the menu and didn't miss a beat when asked about gluten-free and criss contamination. Our good was just as spectacular. I recommend the sea bass. My spouse would recommend the sea scallops. So good! Waitress was attentive, not overbearing. Excellent in all areas.

This is one of my favorite eateries! The menu has something for every budget, every taste bud, and every food restriction! They even have a gluten-free menu. There is a fresh market inside the redtaurant entrance that sells many of the condiments, seafood items, salads, etc. This is an excellent choice for tourists and neighborhood folks alike. They offer inside and outside seating. Note: You can see the restaurant sign from Highway 8; however, the restaurant itself can not be seen from the highway. It is down in a small valley adjacent to a man-made lake. Try it! You'll like it! ✔️💯🔥✅️

Gluten Free pizza buyers beware! There is a $5 additional charge per pizza, which the company does not mention on its Website. I suggested to the company that they should make customers aware of this BEFORE placing an order, but they were reluctant to do so, they said "everybody" knows this...

During one of our visit to San Diego, We sometimes have a sudden hunger and jump into the first restaurant that offers Gluten Free Items.. to start We would like to thanks Will the chef on duty when we came for lunch, my Husband has Celiac so gluten is a no no. Will made the impossible possible by making a double hamburger well fitted into a GF English Muffin, that takes skills, BRAVO to Will.
My Hubby's Mom who is a young soon to be 91 years old has a lot of difficulty chewing food so it has to be very soft, Mommy loves salmon so we ordered Salmon with 2 sides ,mashed potatoes and mixed veggies.
I asked our very nice waitresse Danielle to ask the chef to cook the veggies extra soft, despite this, the veggies were still a little too hard for Mommy to chew. Danielle took things into her own hands and got these veggies and put them into the blender making mashed Veggies that Mommy enjoyed as the empty bowl did show when she was done.
Danielle went truly above and beyond her duty as a waitress, her caring for others and her customers is absolutely EXCEPTIONAL.
To the manager and the corporate, I say, Take good care of this young lady, employee like her are rare. THANK YOU DANIELLE for being so wonderful 💖
See you soon.

First time visiting. Great experience. We sat outside since the weather was lovely. The food was on point. We had some of their rolls, blended peach margarita, peach nigori, and mochi. I’m allergic to gluten and dairy and they were able to accommodate. Our waitress was amazing!!!! She was happy and friendly. She was also able to make recommendations for what I could eat and what was able to be modified. At one point she told me that the kitchen was unsure about one of the desserts and were reading through the mixes ingredients to make sure instead of just guessing. 10 out of 10 definitely recommend this location. We even got some gluten and dairy free lava cake to go. So excited to try it out when we get home.
