Amazing restaurant! The waitress told us that the owner has celiac, so many items are gluten free or can be made gluten free! I had the fish and chips, which they said are completely GF, and there’s no shared fryer with gluten containing items! The only modification I needed to make was asking to not have the malt vinegar on my plate.

I had the flourless cake, my colleagues had the burger and Flatbread. The burger was a huge hit gone. I was told the Flatbread was good, it looked delicious, lots of cheese. The view was amazing. The gluten-free options were not listed and not a huge selection of what should be "naturally" gluten-free.

Fantastic dinner! There is nothing better than having Celiac Disease and being able to feel as if you don't. My husband, son and I dined last evening for our anniversary. To start, we the had fresh Cesar salad and our son had the jerk pork belly. I had the salmon with truffles, my husband had the chicken and our son had the best burger. For dessert there was banana cake and ice cream, for me without the cake, and my husband had stuffed donuts. The staff was absolutely professional, kind and understood what I could and could not eat. The great news was most dishes were fine for me to select. We added Nine-Ten to our rotation of local restaurants recently and I am happy we did!

A nice dog friendly casual dining restaurant. Excellent food, fun beverages & a dog menu! I appreciated the sugar free mocha option and the gluten free muffins. The self-serve coffee outside while you wait was very nice. We had to wait 30 minutes longer than quoted for a table but otherwise everything was great.

Had a great lunch here while visiting La Jolla. Our waiter, Luke, was very knowledgeable about the menu and reassured us that our allergies would be handled appropriately. Gluten free options were somewhat limited but we were all satisfied. Would come again!

Really sweet little café in La Jolla. Coffee was great, but more importantly to me, they had gluten-free and egg free bakery options that meant I could eat sweets!!!!!
