Soooo good and you can customize dishes to meet dietary restrictions like vegan and gluten free.

I’ve lived in the Grove for about two years, and I’m walking distance from Songbird. This means, most days I’m up at 7 am walking my dog past this place to smell all the smells. Great smells, and all for free. I like to think my dog thinks the same, bc he will usually stop and take extra sniffs by this place. Fantastic place to smell, first and foremost. Okay, you want to know about the food. Yeah, I’ve gotten take-out from here, PLENTY a times. And it’s always going to be the same effing thing. THE COMBO SANDWICH! Please! Cmon! Insane to the fricken membrane! Never gets old! Perfect sandwich, and please know I come from the land of breakfast sandwiches (new jersey) and this place knows how to do a breakfast fricken sandwich. Freshly toasted sourdough, thick bacon, incredible cheese, and that EGG! 😫 With salt and honey on top, please. 🙏 Any time I get this to-go, it’s always warm, egg perfectly cooked, and so easy to order through their user-friendly website. Shoutout whoever does their web-design BTW - love it. Okay, now you want to know the dine-in vibes. Such a cozy, lovely, well designed interior. It feels like you’re eating at your down-to-earth rich friend’s house who definitely is a NPR contributing member. So like, good vibes. Love the hand-painted designs all over, and the color scheme is not overwhelming, it aids in your eating experience. One bathroom - small, and does the job well. Great bathroom. Every detail of this place is so well thought out, to the cookbooks on the bar, to the little figurines on the sill of the mirror. Also, always love a purse hook! Which there are a plenty of! The wait staff here - they are professionals. Like true, real deal professionals. My dad still references this phrase someone used - “How was your first chew?” I mean, how does one even think of such an original sentence? Thank you for inspiring thought and critical thinking. I’ve sat at the bar and at a table. Both spots had excellent back support, and how enjoyable to place my feet wherever I so choose when we sit. Perhaps I swing them! Love the choice. And the open-kitchen concept for the drink making, love it. How fun to watch espressos and kombuchas and teas and delicious alcoholic morning beverages be made!! Okay, now you want to know about the dine-in food experience. As much as I love that OG sandwich, I was recently diagnosed with a random autoimmune disease that restricts some foods I can eat, including gluten, so I was so happy to see they have a gluten-free option for their combo sandwich! I’m really not supposed to eat a lot of food, but the thing is the quality of ingredients is so incredible, I never have a poor reaction to their meat, dairy, or butter. I love they have partnerships with lots of local businesses, and you can really taste the quality. Okay, so I know I raved about the combo sandwich, but their menu is so full of variety and they have the best seasonal specials. My dad loves the Kale Frittata, and I’ve also enjoyed their Sprouted Grain English Muffin, and their grits are so yum! Please try everything once, you won’t regret it. Also always get the combo. lol. Now - the drinks. You might be saying, why is this tiny little Songbird latte $10? Yeah, I wonder that too. I think it’s because of inflation, and also because the quality of house-made syrup, cruelty-free coffee, and delicious milk varieties are just worth it. But hey, don’t want to spend that much? Get one of their insanely delicious teas, matchas, or juices. But don’t sleep on that kombucha. I won’t lie, it’s a bit of a small amount for the price point, but again, you get what you pay for here. My boyfriend tried their Coffee with a Kick as well, and he got a SUBSTANTIAL amount of liquor in that jawn 🤣. Very pleased. I know it’s a long review, but I must address one final thing. All of you weirdos are always complaining about the wait, and being “pushed out.” Go work in a restaurant once in your life. Please. Learn patience. It’s worth the wait.

The best burgers and Great gluten free options!

Laronda Burnett

I have to eat gluten-free foods. My burger was delicious on a GF bun. My party of 5 left satisfied.

M Lapehn

Terrible service for Tuesday at 9am. The server did not know what celiac was so I only ordered eggs over medium and a fruit salad. They offer GF crepes, and have lots of GF options otherwise, but not safe for celiacs .

Kristina Fulton

Excellent gluten free options.

Larry Jost

We went for lunch/brunch and received excellent service and really great food. The breakfast burrito was superb! The gluten free Nutella menu item was enjoyed but the serving size was tiny. The fig crepe was generous and tasty. The server was fantastic! We had a table in the back area and that was nice. The huge long shared table space was pretty much occupied and would not have worked for conversations.

xo Tatiana

10/10 will always recommend this Black owned bakeshop. I always go here for gluten free cupcakes and healthy, tasty food options. They have a little something for everyone, they are so kind, and the vibes are immaculate. The waffle fries, cup cakes, Cajun home style breakfast potatoes, tacos, and vegan burgers are some of our go tos

I forgot to get pics but this place is wonderful. The staff, especially out waitress Dana, was very friendly and attentive. The service was fast and the orders were spot on. The place is fairly large and they were quite busy for lunch but the wait was minimal and food came quite quickly. Prices were fair and the portions were large. The quality was excellent. Breakfast served all day. Lots of gluten free menu options, including pancakes. Large drink menu with a variety of mimosa's featured. Highly recommended!

Abigail Perkins

Cute outdoor area and a Caesar salad I keep thinking about (pictures). They have gluten free options for pizza and pasta.

Kristopher Stephens

Love Dining here. Servers are very knowledgeable about gluten and chef goes out of his way to take precautions.

Jacob Mohrmann

Their vegan gluten free pizza with the cashew cheese is incredible - and that is a touch feat because you are working without pretty much all the main ingredients in pizza!

Clover Villanueva

my favorite restaurant in st louis. amazing vegan and gluten free option.

Tammy Rae Bartley

Loved that they had gluten free options!

Mark Kiesewetter

Great little neighborhood spot. The food was simple but very very good. We had salad travs and gluten free pizza that was amazing!

Carl Gonzalez

Roberto Miki

Great experience on our first visit to OPH! Super friendly staff and quick service! Shout out to Madalynn who was incredible. She did not lead us astray with the recommendation of the cinnamon bun pancakes. They also provide a gluten free option which is a super bonus! Fresh OJ was available although I did not order.

Stacy Ancel

WOW! As a gluten-free free person with celiacs, it’s hard to find a delicious dinner out that’s not bland or just a salad with chicken or protein added. I’ve tried several restaurants as I like to eat out sometimes and feel normal. I tried the “Assorted Wild Mushrooms & Pecorino Polenta” and added steak. OMG! I was transferred to another planet! I almost cried it was so good! I’m pretty sure it was the best meal I’ve had in the last 10 years after finding out I had to eat #gf. I cannot wait to eat it again and think of it every day as I’m drinking my morning coffee. Im pretty sure I would feel the same way eating it even if I wasn’t GF and didn’t know it was GF. Now that’s a huge deal! Man, was it good! Talk about amazing comfort delicious food!

I have been eating on The Hill since I was a kid. I was diagnosed with Celiac disease in my 20's. Thankfully, I am still able to grab a bite at Rigazzi's! They offer a GF pizza crust, as well as garlic bread. The food has always been delish! I have gotten contaminated a handful of times while eating there, but unfortunately I am taking that risk knowing that they do NOT have a dedicated GF cooking area. My husband ans my BIL love the fishbowls!!

Brigit J

We love going here! The building is so beautiful with the wood and stain glass everywhere. Gorgeous spot for pictures. The have so much seating that it’s always easy to get a table. The food is consistently good. The staff is always on point. We’ve never had a bad server or bar tender. Even their gluten free options are yummy!

Tony Zafiropoulos

Well treated excellent server... we had a large party, and everything was great... even gluten free options for some of us. I had 2 Tapas. Fish and fruit cheese combo, forgot to take pictures. ..

Karen Shaffer

We love Mudhouse on Cherokee and they have a delicious gluten free breakfast sandwich. Great teas, coffees and baked pastries. Unfortunately they do not have any pastries that are gluten free. Maybe they can hook up with Britts in Kirkwood and add a couple gf pastry options! Hint hint nudge nudge!!❤️

annette fugitt

What a gem! The Cup is an amazing little shop that delivers big on flavor. Their cupcakes are absolutely delicious--there's truly something for every palate. As someone who appreciates gluten-free options, I was thrilled to find treats that didn't compromise on taste at all. The staff was quick, courteous, and genuinely kind, making the whole experience even sweeter. Can't wait to come back and try more. Highly recommend for anyone with a sweet tooth (gluten-free or not)!

Fresh Thyme Market in St. Louis, Missouri, has carved out a niche in the local grocery scene by combining the charm of a farmers market with the convenience of a modern supermarket. Located in several neighborhoods across the city—including popular locations like the Brentwood area and South County—Fresh Thyme stands out for its commitment to fresh produce, natural products, and community values. The store's design feels open and welcoming, with rustic wood elements and signage that give it a down-to-earth, Midwestern feel. As soon as customers enter, they're greeted by colorful displays of fresh fruits and vegetables—many of which are organic or locally sourced. This emphasis on freshness is not just for show; it’s the core of the Fresh Thyme philosophy. In a city like St. Louis, where diverse neighborhoods crave both health-conscious options and affordability, Fresh Thyme strikes a careful balance. One of the most popular features of the market is its bulk section. Shoppers can scoop grains, nuts, spices, and snacks in the exact amounts they need—reducing packaging waste and saving money. The store also features a wide selection of gluten-free, vegan, and allergen-friendly products, making it a valuable resource for families with dietary needs. Local meats and sustainable seafood fill the coolers, and the store’s deli offers freshly prepared meals, smoothies, and sandwiches ideal for busy city life. Fresh Thyme’s role in the St. Louis community goes beyond just groceries. Many locations host seasonal events, cooking demonstrations, and partner with local farms and artisans. Their emphasis on local connections fits the character of St. Louis—a city that values its neighborhoods, small businesses, and cultural diversity. However, some shoppers note that prices can be higher than at larger chain stores like Schnucks or Walmart, particularly for specialty items. Still, many feel the quality and freshness justify the cost, especially when it comes to produce and natural health products. In conclusion, Fresh Thyme Market offers St. Louis residents more than a place to shop—it offers a lifestyle centered on wellness, sustainability, and community connection. In a city where food is deeply tied to culture and identity, Fresh Thyme provides a fresh and modern alternative that continues to grow .

Really nice quaint environment and the staff is lovely and kind. They are very helpful and the food is fantastic. I am gluten intolerant, and they had a wonderful variety of foods, breakfasts, specifically, that I was able to have. My husband had the regular menu and he very much enjoyed his breakfast as well. We left there with our plates cleaned and no left overs. Coffee was delish!!

Excellent smoothies & acai bowls - custom to your order preference! Coconut, almond or oat milk options+ swap out or add to base or toppings - try out new combinations! Waffles are available in Gluten-Free!

Krista Reed

DELICIOUS!! Great food choices, fresh ice cream and tons of gluten free options. Staff was super knowledgeable and helpful in navigating the menu.

Oma Norris

Wendi Rose

Some of the best tacos I’ve ever had! Sue, the owner, chatted with us and was so kind! One of our friends has vegan AND gluten free needs and they were able to accommodate her with no issue!

Caitlin Sutton

a breath of fresh air on my trip to St. Louis, great vibe, relaxed, cool esthetic, bomb burger and fries, nice to find a gluten-free, vegan dessert (Oreo cheesecake)

Ashley Bright

I had heard nothing but great things. I decided to come as they had gluten free options and it’s rare to find a place with a GF hot dog bun. The gentleman who took our order was very nice and the food came out efficiently. The taste of the food (2 dogs and a brat, two fries) were great, my nieces enjoyed theirs a lot. Mine tasted great, although the GF option isn’t really a hot dog bun…it was more like a sub sandwich bun. Within an hour of leaving this place I was SO SICK. Nausea and severe stomach pains - which is what happens if I am accidentally exposed to a fair amount of gluten. While I understand this is not a dedicated gluten free restaurant, I have eaten at many other places that are not either. I suspect Steve’s Hot Dog cross contamination practices are very lax & this is disappointing. If you’re going to offer GF items, you need to be knowledgeable and attempt to at least not make people sick! Before we left, we waited to use the rest room (one was out of order). An employee came out and he had the worst smelling B.O. I have ever experienced. We were gagging in the bathroom. It sort of grosses you out when you know someone is working in the kitchen and they have a body odor issue like that.

Jodi Miller

The food and drinks were delicious. The buffalo chicken salad was amazing and gluten free! I've been here a few times and the food never disappoints! On top of it, our awesome server, Ashley, made the night even better. She made great suggestions and kept us laughing throughout our 3 hour dinner. Can't wait to go back!

Serena M

Excellent gluten-free options. Very flavorful food. Attentive and friendly staff.

This particular location of The Pasta House was particularly fabulous. It is smaller and has a great atmosphere. The noise level is not overwhelming. Additionally, our server got everything on point without writing a thing down. We did not have a simple order, either. My gluten-free Pasta Con Broccoli was the best I have had in years! Not watery! I highly recommend this location.

Stephen Lawrence

Sado is an exceptional dining experience! The menu is thoughtful, and there are many options ranging from raw items to fully cooked courses. There are also many vegetarian and vegan options, and the kitchen was very accommodating with my gluten allergy. The nigiri and sashimi are the true stars here, with many options such as bluefin tuna, freshwater eel, king crab, hamachi, mackerel, salmon, and more. The wagyu beef options are also incredible and delicious. The cocktail menu is wonderful, with many unique twists on classic drinks, as well as delicious mocktails for those who abstain from alcohol. While pricey, Sado is worth every penny as it delivers not only delicious food and drink, but a wonderful ambience and outstanding service from the welcoming and professional staff. This is our special occasion spot, and we look forward to many wonderful meals to come!

Angela Ong

I love this place! Having to stick to gluten and dairy free food can be tough to still eat out and find awesome food. Highly recommend the Dosa Roll with Chettinad Chicken and Tandoor Mayo.

Genevieve Wilson

Kari Everhart

We have to be very careful when eating out as my partner has major food allergies, allergic to both gluten and dairy. They did an excellent job and the food was beyond fabulous.

I called this place around 0957 this morning and asked to have GF donuts put back behind the counter for me and my mother in law who can't have gluten. Mind you im visiting and its the first place I saw with GF donuts and I thought it looked nice. I called and the lady on the phone said she'd put atleast two behind the counter for me and when I show up 22 minutes later because I had to drive there I go in and tell the lady that I was the person who called about the GF donuts and asked them to put them back behind the counter for me. She immediately said Oh ya some guy just came in and bought the last five and left. How about don't tell customers that you will save something for them behind the counter and then NOT follow through and do it. Will never buy donuts here or waste my time driving that far for GF donuts ever again. Completely rude and Unprofessional to tell someone that you'd save them two donuts and then you didn't.

Went for dinner before the P!nk concert. Every freaking where was packed and overloaded. Even with the extremely long lines, we were in and out within 30 minutes. They executed the chaos perfectly. Only 3 people working the line and fold was put in a timely manner and absolutely delicious. Will definitely be going back when there is less downtown chaos. They were also very diligent when it came to gluten-free orders.
