The pizzas in here are truly the best. The crust is crispy and the topping are juicy and delicious. The pizzas are vegetarian but there is a vegan and a gluten free option too. We love them !

So glad I finally came by today for a late lunch (2PM) - cool place (love the decor/style), nice staff & tasty food. Some dishes you will not find in the average Thai restaurant in the Bay Area. For example, the chef or owner is from northern Thailand so the menu features a top Northern Thai dish - Kao Soi noodle soup (beef or chicken), or the all time fav 'street food' grilled pork skewers (moo ping) served with sticky rice (ck out the menu on their website). I had the Pad Kemao Chicken (menu says beef but they are happy to make dishes with what you like & even have Beyond Meat dishes on the menu - cool to see stir fried basil with Beyond Meat (Krapao Beyond Neur). The taste of my wok fried pad kemao was delicious, same or better than any I've had on prior trips to Bangkok. Glad to have discovered a solid Thai restaurant that doesn't have watered down flavors (adapted for non-Thais). Good to see they have a lot of gluten free and vegan choices on the menu too. Definitely will be back, keep up the good work!

This charming, quiet place is heaven. My husband, omnjomnivore, and I, forced to eat dairy and gluten free, were both incredibly happy with the high quality, fresh food we received on top of very nice and respectful service. There’s one meal, you choose the size of your portion. I cannot stress enough how amazing the food was. Vegetables, beans and rice cooked and seasoned to perfection. Collard greens like I’ve never had them before: juicy, tender but with a wonderful bite, deliciously seasoned and clearly very fresh. The soup was amazing, too. Fragrant, perfect texture and the right amount of it, too. We are so grateful for this meal. Thank you so much!!

We're now regulars at Lovely Day and I've reviewed them on other platforms, but felt the need to add another 5 star review here too. The food is fantastic, I am gluten free and almost the whole menu is GF (though it's so good you wouldn't even know it). We love the Buffalo Cauliflower (we often get a 2X order!) and the Chicken Milanese. The cocktails are always awesome as well. The staff is incredibly gracious and welcoming -- and they are so kind and patient with our 3 year old daughter as well. We highly recommend Lovely Day!!

I drool just thinking about eating here again. Everything is SO flavorful and so messy and I love it. Haven’t had a think I don’t like here, the best vegan tacos you can get imo. They ran out of pickled vegetables, so gave us a cookie instead- I didn’t have high expectations but seriously the best cookie I’ve ever had. Such high quality vegan and gluten free food 😭 ❤️ will share pictures next time

The gluten-free chocolate cake was incredibly tasty! I called in advance and was informed that they were initially sold out. However, they had more batter available and were able to bake some additional cakes within 30 minutes.

My boyfriend is gluten/dairy free and we came here based on good ratings from the Find Me GF app. While he couldn’t have the donuts, we were mainly after brunch and the tofu scrambles were delicious! He had the Pepples scramble with avocado, and I had the Pesto scramble. Both come served with hash browns and sourdough toast, so we just left out the toast for him. I usually don’t love tofu but this dish was absolutely delicious! We are from out of town but will definitely stop back here if we’re in the area again 😄
