High hopes, but kind of a letdown. First off, 87.00 dollars for two burgers with fries, a glass of wine and an iced tea seems a bit much. Was expecting it to wow us. They have gluten free options there. The gluten free bun was not prepared well and completely fell apart after one bite. Wishing I would have just skipped the bun. Fries are in a dedicated fryer. The fries were all just pieces... All broken up. The iced tea was pretty good. The staff was nice but a bit aloof. Really wanted to like the place, but thought it was just mediocre and overly priced.

Our favorite breakfast spot when visiting SLO! Sally Loo’s was recommended from friends that live in the area and we couldn’t have been more glad we came. Hands down they have the best breakfast food we have ever tried, all while being allergy friendly and quick to get the orders out. I don’t think I have ever seen a cafe that has knocked out a line of 30 people so quickly, all while keeping the food quality top notch. My wife is allergic to gluten and eggs, so the restaurants we can go to are limited. Sally Loo’s handles allergy restrictions effectively and efficiently. Every restaurant can learn from them.

This is one of my favorite restaurants! They can make anything but samosas gluten free, and can make most sauces dairy free. I love being able to have naan again! My favorites are lamb boti kebab, tandoori chicken, chicken vindaloo, vegetable pakora, chicken pakora. I've heard their chicken tikka masala is wonderful, but haven't had them make it dairy-free for me yet.

Went in for a late lunch on a Tuesday. It was pretty quiet with just some regulars. I got a gluten free Luna burger. It was excellent!! My boyfriend got the Bogy burger and some onion rings and thoroughly enjoyed both as well. I wish we had saved room for a milkshake because they looked delicious. The staff was excellent but Jenny, in particular, is an absolute gem! Soooo kind, friendly, and attentive. Would 100% go back!

Picked up sandwiches to go on our way to San Francisco from LA. Friendly staff. Knew to ask if my gluten free bread was an allergy or preference. And even better, knew to toast the bread twice. Hours later the sandwiches still tasted great.

Sequoia sandwich has finally arrived! Their menu is actually a lovely fit for some missing fare in downtown SLO. Fresh sandwiches, hot or cold, salads, soups, vegetarian, gluten free. And then, ready?! Corn bread and baked potatoes!! The kid's menu is well priced and everything we've tried has been delicious. Have some patience with the staff, the menu is new to them, too. A great addition to downtown dining and right next to the theater!
