Today is my Mom's 75th birthday.
She has food allergies, so I expect to pay more for a good cake.
I ordered a small chocolate cake with vanilla frosting that's also gluten/soy/corn free. With the extra $15 for corn-free powdered sugar I paid $79. I told them it was for a celebration and asked them to put a 75 on top. They told me that, due to the ingredient limitations, they couldn't color the frosting and that the 75 would be white on white. I approved that and told them to just make it look nice.
This is what I got. Did a professional decorator do this? It's yellow (is that even safe to eat based on what they told me on the phone when I ordered?). It's not proportional. It isn't even remotely celebratory looking. I could've done it better myself. I'm so disappointed. 3 stars because at least the cake is good.
I am OBSESSED with this burger joint!!! As someone who eats gluten free, their gf burger buns are PHENOMENAL and don't crumble at the slightest touch. I also love their spanky sauce and my husband loves the "dirty" version. My only two complaints is that they don't seem to be open on weekends (sort of sporadic hours), and you pay the same if you don't want fries, which I'm not always in the mood for.
With their hours, I recommend checking if the online ordering is available in order to see if they are open. I hope they eventually start being open on weekends because this will be my go to spot when coming to visit Tacoma!
We love this place! It is our go-to choice when people are in town. Options enough to be loved by everyone. Gluten-Free (✔️) Vegetarian (✔️) Food is consistently delicious. Service is always great.
Fryer is not gluten free so don't get anything that could be fried like the spare ribs. I have had fried rice, all noodle dishes, chicken and broccoli, green beans, and fresh rolls. no reactions and great flavor. Just doesn't offer dine in.

This is an amazing store that offers great quality organic produce, a deli counter that makes and serves sandwiches, soup, smoothies, & coffee etc. They have a salad bar, and in-house prepared deserts (often including gluten-free & vegan options). They offer some products (grains, nuts, seeds, nut butter, candies, honey, oils, etc) to purchase from bins by weight. Not to mention the wide array of clean packaged foods, toiletries, vitamins & supplements, and even some choice clothing, candles, and supplements in the front left of the store in the dining area. The prices may be a bit steep on typical items that one can purchase at Whole Foods, but the products that they carry that you cannot get anywhere else and their top-notch organic produce make it absolutely worth while.

Farelli's pizza is like the pizza places of old with fresh made dough and sauce and lots of tasty options. They don't have a problem with allergies (gluten and dairy) and make the dining experience very pleasurable. Our waiter (so funny and kind)didn't get his name. He made sure our food was allergy free. His table side jovial personality made our time even better. The pizzas, cheesy chicken calzone, were all really delicious! We also got bbq boneless chicken wings and df cheesy bread-so delicious! We will visit again when we are in town. Thank you to our red-headed waiter, which made our experience even better!
About as Tacoma as it gets, corner of 1st & S. Tacoma, right around the corner from Stadium Thriftway. No frills, just great pizza.
Traditional pies are all 18", gluten free are 14" wide. Every pizza on the menu is delicious.
I like to walk in, order, shop, and eat one, sometimes two slices right there and take the rest home.
Delivery available via 3rd party services.
A delicious spot with excellent vegan and gluten free options! We had the Buena dia burrito, the vegan breakfast sandwich with gluten free bread, two Dude's donuts (Homer, churro), and the French press coffee. All of it was exceptional! The dairy free butter spread on the breakfast sandwich was a huge hit.
