This is my new favorite pizza place! My mother visited last year and would sing its praises every time we ate pizza (we aren’t from LA) so we had to come try it. It did not disappoint. Their pizza is insanely good, with stretchy cheese, and good quality crust. They also can make gluten free pizzas that taste just like the original. The best part is the staff. Our server Anaise is so nice, she chatted with us, took our picture, and even gave us complementary wings to try just cuss! This is not a restaurant you find often. It’s yummy, reasonably priced, and the company makes you feel at home. Can’t say enough nice things about Braazos! Try it for yourself!

I absolutely recommend this place for the best gluten free fried chicken in LA! it’s so crispy and tasty we are 100% coming back here to try more items on the menu and to get the family bucket. The lady who served us was also so nice and kind. Everything we ordered was so tasty, even the pickle and the green sauce - outstanding. Can’t wait to come back for more. Also it’s important to note that they validate parking 🙌🏼

If you’re looking for great Pizza with a pretty relaxed atmosphere this is your place. They offer Vegan, Vegetarian, Gluten Free and regular options. They also carry a small selection of beer. If you’re Vegan I really recommend the Vegan Sicilian cheese, I also tried the veggie, pepperoni and mac and cheese but Sicilian cheese was definitely my favorite. My hubby is not Vegan and he also loved the none vegan options. They sell by the slice which works out great for us.

Wurstkuche is one of the restaurants I’d recommend to anyone visiting LA. I’ve been going here for years now and have always had the most amazing experiences. They accommodate my gluten allergy so well here, simply making my sausage without a bun and also wrapped in foil so no cross contamination occurs. I love the kielbasa and have yet to try anything too out there, but they have some very interesting and exotic sausages such as the rattlesnake & rabbit one! Not sure if I’ll ever be adventurous enough to try that one! There tends to be a line every time I go, but there’s always enough room to sit, as they have a large front patio and plenty of seats indoors that’s free seating. I love how there are crayons and you can color on the tables! Parking is pretty terrible as this is a busy area in the Arts District, so I’d recommend ubering if possible, although I did get lucky and find parking right away this time around! Definitely check this place out as they are super accommodating, the atmosphere is great and the food is delicious!

Honestly so so bad. Do not go here unless you want to walk out feeling terrible in every way. For the longest time this was on the very top of my list of places i needed to try. I was so excited. I have a number of allergies and the menu seems amazing. However the food is really really not good, not even considering the cost. More than that, i finished it feeling more bloated and nasty than i have in a long time. So for all of the things they say they are, it seems like there’s something they use in their cooking that is not good. So not safe for those with sensitive guts. I got the rad thai, their take on pad thai and it was mushy and bad and almost tasteless. It came with a side of tasteless greens and tasteless and dry quinoa all for 31$. They used thin clear noodles instead of a flat noodle. Pad thai in and of itself is gluten free besides the soy sauce so it’s not hard to make a healthier version. Next time I know to make it at home because my god did they mess this one up. Just mush, no texture, no flavor, and 4 pieces of the tiniest broccoli mixed in and maybe 15 strands of carrot. $31. On top of that the cashier was unbelievably rude and short with me totally uncalled for. And also just… weird? She took my order and then later when it came out even though i was the only other person in the restaurant she half-yelled out “rad thai” “rad thai” a number of times in a really irritated voice. The whole time i was standing pretty much right in fromt of her and there wasnt anyone else and she was yelling out into the distance in an irritated voice. Like girl wth 😂. It was 7pm too it wasnt even late. Also while i was waiting for my order i asked about the ice cream and she was texting the whole time and pretended not to hear me the first time. And then was like so irritated rolled her eyes at me and like mumbled ill get to you get out of the way there are other customers here. There were no other customers. Tho some customers came in 2 minutes later, i guess she was pre-empting the future lmao. She was acting like this with me the moment i walked in. The ambiance is bad too. It is not comfortable at all to sit and dine in. That might be on purpose. I guess they dont want you there. So if you want to feel like garbage both in your head and in your stomach this is the place for you. Would give 1 star but 2 for what they represent. Glad there’s a vegan and supposedly healthy restaurant here but that’s all they can get credit for because you dont leave it feeling healthy.

Our server for the night was Duanny, and let me just say, I hope all who go here get to have him. He was such a delight, answered all the questions I had about the vegan/gluten friendly options, and did so cheerfully! Such great food and atmosphere here as well!!

I often use the Yard House as a go to restaurant when trying to accommodate a large group. They have lots of seating and a menu that can accommodate most dietary restrictions (I.e. vegan and gluten free). The food is decent but not special but the large selection is nice with a group. They also have a great selection of craft beer.

Delicious! Veggie & Gluten free menu. They have a separate gluten free menu. But you need to make sure to mention them you are ordering from there. Because the names of the items are the same, so I thought I ordered a gluten free item but it came with bread. To their credit they did bring me out a new one without any gluten quickly.

The lady who took our orders was super nice!! I got a chipotle chicken burrito - 10/10, lumberjack pancakes - 9/10 needs some pepper, and the cheesy egg sandwich - 5/10 they forgot the cheese. I’m traveling with my gran who has quite a few dietary restrictions and while they did make everything gluten free which is great, they did however grease the bread when asked not to and forgot the cheese so it was just egg and bread. Otherwise, I love my food so much and the coffee was great.
