We went with Verde Cocina as the caterers for our wedding and could not be more pleased with the decision.
Literally everyone came up to us to rave above the food. Having the EVO grill there made for a fun addition to the reception and also really made people feel like they were getting the most fresh high quality food. The cocktails were grabbed up almost immediately. Our only regret there was not buying more cocktails.
The first bite of crab cake we got after hours of photo taking and wedding stuff will go down as a top 5 bite of food i've ever had. the sentiments were shared by many.
Verde Cocina being a gluten-free restaurant and being very sensitive/aware of dietary restrictions was such a massive relief for us and for guests.
Arro(in charge of the catering) was so quick with communication, extremely personable, and made the menu selection process a real joy. He's also just a nice guy, by the time we'd actually gotten married he was so excited to say congrats.
Probably more that could be said, but I would just say if you are still looking for a catering option, just contact them. It will be worth exploring.
Choosing to sit in the bar area during a busy, rainy Saturday was the right move. We were able to immediately get a seat and service was fast despite how busy they were. I tried their gluten free beer and it was really good - so many others are terrible. My husband loves their IPAs so he was in heaven.
The Beet Rueben, The Walnut Chorizo Quesadilla, The Utopia Dream Salad, The Gilt smoothie, Garden Scramble…Love this place! And I feel safe coming here with my Celiac Disease which is huge.
I was in town visiting a friend who has a severe gluten allergy and I found Bamboo Sushi on the gluten free app. Looked into it and made a reservation. Informed the server of the allergy and she said there were only 2 items with gluten. One was the burger but could likely be substituted with lettuce instead of the bun and another was an option garnish. Even the tempura is gluten free which is very rare. We decided to get Wasabi Honey Chicken and Smashed Avocado crispy rice as an appetizer. The chicken was really good, had some heat/spiciness, but excellent flavor. The Smashed Avocado crispy rice was really good too but we both liked the chicken more. She got the Unicorn sushi and asked for eel sauce, and I went with the green machine which is vegetarian and asked for spicy aioli. We both really enjoyed the food and we ended with the Matcha panna Cotta. I'm not a fan of matcha so it wasn't for me, but she really enjoyed it. We enjoyed the food so much we came back 2 nights later with her Aunt and ordered chicken karaage for an appetizer (no picture). She got the garden of Eden Sushi and the Friday the 13th sushi and enjoyed both but I think she likes the Friday the 13th better. I got the chili garlic chicken with steamed rice which was very tasty. And her Aunt got the grilled octopus (no picture) and said it too was delicious. Highly recommend checking Bamboo Sushi out. It's a small restaurant and can be a little cramped but the food is delicious!
Cute little vegan spot. Love they clearly list what is gluten free & soy free! I ordered the golden dragon curry which was a nice portion size for the price and tasted lovely.
This is a cute Thai restaurant with a great atmosphere. The staff are friendly and fun, the staff seem to know everyone by name that come in and the ppl from the neighborhood just stop in to say hi as they are taking their evening walks 😁. The food is so good, and they serve a gluten-free menu, which I appreciate 😋 🙏🏻
I've been supplementing my diet with Kure ever since I went gluten-free. I love their shakes; my body craves them! Hoping one day Kure gets a location in Beaverton because Moberi and Nekter don't cut it for me.
Sooo good! Loved everything we got, but the hummus was my fave. They do sauces really well here. They were able to accommodate celiac (gluten allergy) very easily which I really appreciated. For a tapas place I feel like the portions were really good.
Mark was SO nice accommodating a large semi-last-minute order. This location is always friendly, fast, and delicious. Great selection of both pizzas and salads, and they have a gluten-free option, which is nice. Thank you Mark & team!
Solid, reliable food that you literally can't go wrong with. Always served with a smile and what I appreciate most, other than the whole ingredients, is the fact that it's truly priced fairly.
For those who are Gluten-Free, we love that Whole Bowl is fully gluten-free!
Bonus? The serve Nate's Oatmeal cookies which are the best (and also GF)! 🙌🏽
I live close by & have been coming here for many years & have always had great service & good food.
In the last 8 months, I have been managing life-threatening health issues & was recently diagnosed with Celiac Disease. The severity of my autoimmune disease now prevents me from eating at restaurants that are not dedicated gluten-free, but I missed this place so much since getting sick, I insisted that my friend who was visiting town meet me here for lunch today.
I came in with a salad I packed from home & some cookies from Trader Joe’s down the street, while my friend ordered two entrees (one for herself, & one to bring back to her husband). Because I love(d) this place so much, I wanted to be sure to personally support them just as I always had despite my new health limitations, so I ordered a large matcha & grabbed a bag of gluten-free chips as well.
When we came back to our table, there was a sign saying “Reserved” & we were asked not-so-courteously to move by the owner (?). The only available seats now were outside, so we grabbed all of our things & settled into a table out there. A few minutes later, the owner (?) came over to our table & asked that we move AGAIN because they needed to “leaf blow”. Then she asked about my “outside food” despite seeing that we were clearly paying patrons. Embarrassed, I tried to explain my condition to her but was not met with any empathy. She said she would offer to let us sit somewhere else but it was for hostel guests only. So we were practically kicked-out as there was nowhere else for us to sit. I have never had anything like this happen to me before, it was so awkward & unkind.
My friend was forced to box up her meal before she was finished & the bag of chips I bought from them turned out to be past their ‘best by’ date so I had to toss them!
What a bizarre experience. I will not be coming back, such a bummer.
Excellent food. Was out very quickly. All the food here is either extremely rich or flavorful. Portion sizes slightly larger. Chicken was very tender on arrival. Lamb was ever so slightly overcooked. Samosas are handmade and perfectly cooked. Looks very family owned. Menu is clearly marked halal, gluten free, and dairy free.
