There is no place like Claire’s! I’ve been coming here since 1983 when i was an overwhelmed freshman at Yale. Claire always offered kindness and compassion, along with Lithuanian coffee cake, granola, egg sandwiches … as a scholarship kid, I couldn’t afford much so going to Claire’s was always a special treat. 40+ years later, I still gravitate there every chance I get to treat myself to all the goodies I couldn’t afford way back when. She still manages to surprise! Today I discover she now makes vegan gluten free Lithuanian coffee cupcakes and sun butter cookies - perfect for a fairy god kid who is allergic to everything. But mostly I go in just hoping to catch a glimpse of Claire and and sometimes work up the courage to say hello. Thank you Claire for all the blessings you have bestowed on so many of us!

The have a gluten free Injera option. I think it is called “black” when served gluten-free. Based on the servers explanation, this seems to be the preferred method as it tears easier. I have never had Ethiopian food. I was really really impressed with the flavors. This restaurant has set the bar high. I would definitely come again if I am in the area!

I’m a little obsessed with Mecha. I’m gluten-free so I’ve only had the Pho with beef options. So fresh and delicious and warming. Quick and friendly service, perfect for solo lunching

I’ve been ordering delivery from Sherkaan for years and finally decided to dine in. The atmosphere is fabulous! I like how the restaurant is tucked in a quiet alley. The food is great as usual! I especially like the goat curry and the gluten free dosa wraps.
