Relaxed, fast casual environment. Straightforward menu with typical Mediterranean options. The food was okay— nothing to rave about. I have dietary preferences, so I avoided the pita bread and fries due to gluten intolerance. The build your own salad bar was awesome. The ingredients were fresh, but none of the sauces tasted appetizing. The others in my party thought the hummus tasted pretty flavorless. The chicken was a solid 6.5/10– nothing special. The atmosphere was good, though— a great place to have a laid back dinner or lunch.

After trying all the coffee in town, they definitely have the best drinks. Overall, little pricier than other places since they up-charge for dairy free alternatives and gluten free bread but it’s worth it. They have ~lots~ of gluten free options but they let me know they are not celiac friendly since it’s all made in the same kitchen. I am on the lower end (weak positive) of the tTG-IgA scale so I haven’t had many issues with minimal amounts of cross contamination, so if you are the same as me I highly recommend the almond flour coconut chocolate chip cake!

It is a hotel-restaurant. The setting is very relaxing and the service is attentive, kind and smiling. At lunchtime, we had the fish tacos: delicious! Of course, when it's busy, the service can be a little long, but we're on vacation... so we stay cool. In the evening, we enjoyed tuna with a red wine sauce, a very original combination.

I work remotely and, thanks to some newly diagnosed medical conditions, I need to find meals that are low sugar and gluten free. Guayoyo to the rescue! It is bright, clean space with just the right amount of people-watching and music when I need a break from my work. The staff is always great about letting me take up space with my laptop and making me the most delicious iced and hot teas (with honey!). My go-to dish is the Tuna Salad made with quinoa and garbanzo beans. I didn't even know I liked garbanzo beans and now I'm obsessed with them. I try stay away from the baked good because of the gluten, but the blueberry muffins and banana bread are worth having my tummy scream at me later. This is a must-do when you just want a relaxing space that feels a little homey.

The food was just okay. I tried the gluten free burger. It completely lacked flavor and salt. I had to ask for extra salsa and had to add a lot of salt.

The smoothies are very good! They also have several gluten-free desserts and the bar is very nice. The prices are a little high, but for the quality of the product and the service they offer, it is very good. Ps. They have a shower for clients, which I think is great!

I have been to Pico several times, the atmosphere is very nice, the guys are very friendly but the food always takes a long time to come out of the kitchen. They brought us the coffee and when the food arrived we had already finished the coffee for 5 minutes, when really I would have liked to have it with my breakfast. Last time I ordered some gluten free pancakes and it was the poorest dish I ate...it had 4 slices of strawberries and not even half a spoonful of chantilly. It's not a cheap place so they could take more care of what they put on the plate from my point of view. I have been a chef for 20 years and I pay attention to these things.

We went with two girls who eat gluten free and they actually had several options and everything was very delicious. The waiter's attention was spectacular, we also highlighted the speed of the food. We would definitely return
