Andrew served us! Andrew is very polite, and gave us some good recommendations upon inquiry. We ended up choosing two items that were mentioned. I had the Scallop and Pork Belly Carbonara. It was a good portion size with delightfully buttery scallops and deliciously tender pork belly. I loved the creamy egg yolk sauce! The lemons garnishing the plate added a nice zest. I also got to try the Honey Soy Glazed Chicken. We don't have any gluten intolerance, but that dish happens to be gluten free and I can vouch for it being a great choice! I particularly enjoy how this dish is out together visually. It's beautiful, and I love the glaze on the chicken. We finished our meal by sharing a slice of Chocolate Dobos Torte, and I don't remember if we were told what sauce was glazed onto the cake but it was a pleasant way to finish our evening. As we ate, I looked over to the bar area, and the staff were smiling and laughing together during a brief moment. While this was only a glimpse, I sincerely hope the staff enjoy working here as much as it seemed they do. I always make sure to leave a good tip, but I hope you're all getting paid well because it seems like you're doing fantastic. Be proud of your work! Thank you, Andrew. :)

Went back after 8 years, wish I just stayed away. Used to be my favorite restaurant. They have let me down. Zero gluten free options that are also meatless, other than their house salad. And my house salad was clearly last nights salad kept in the fridge…it was completely wilted and limp with a Parmesan crisp that had nothing crisp about it. Had to cut, fold and pull apart the fridge cold crisp, that should break when tapped with your fork edge. Sides did not come with our sandwiches , I had the Jamaican jerk wrap with a side salad (it came with no side) and the side salad was not even substituted as a side for gluten free people when their meal came with a side. Would have chosen a different meal, if the rest of my party could have had a real dinner. Unfortunately, a waste of time. Because of their lack of creativity in their food and lack of respect for people with sensitivities, I will not be going back (even though I can eat gluten) because it was that bad.

Went to Naughty Buddha Burger on a friend's rec and it was absolutely worth it. Friendly and helpful cook and cashier. Great space with local art decor. Plenty of parking. Food was excellent. If you are down for vegetarian, vegan or gluten free, it's here. The menu is pretty deep and and the watermelon seasonal salad is outstanding. Food can take a while to come out, so don't go in a hurry.

Place was a little hard to find but totally worth it! Anytime school activities take kid/teachers to Lincoln for an event, a box of Hurts Doughnuts comes back! Our first time here and the 2 girls working were welcoming and upbeat! More than happy to help us and were patient even with a growing line behind us. We came on a lucky day that they had gluten-free donuts, yay! So we got my daughter a box of gluten-free donuts and then a big box for the rest of us. We tried a few right when we got back to the hotel, and they are worth the hype! Soft, fluffy, full for flavor, and 😋 sweet! Open 24hours too!! Insane! Definitely stopping here when we come to Lincoln!

I have had really good experiences at ziggi's. The coffee is great. I enjoy the gluten free English muffin. I am wondering if you recently changed the bread for the gluten free English muffin. This morning, I noticed a difference and I will be honest, I liked the other bread better. I have other food allergies and am wondering if the new bread is not sitting well with me. I definately would recommend ziggis though!

We went for breakfast this morning and had a wonderful experience. All of our questions were patiently answered and they didn’t rush us to order. Even though we ordered in one person was able to get their drink in a to go cup. The drinks were ready first and our number was called out with a microphone so it was very easy to hear. There is a table with utensils and condiments next to the cart for the dish return. Drip coffee was “really good”, the chai latte was “excellent”, hot Cubana had cute latte art and “the brown sugar and cinnamon complement their espresso very well”, and the iced Cuban had “super delicious salt cream”. The Johnny cake was better than expected! Great flavor and crunch. The bit of egg on the Lemon bomb crepe added “an extra layer of yum”. We were very pleased that the only bowl is gluten free and can be made vegan.

Great Nebraska tradition. Decent price. Tons of options. For the gluten intolerant among you they WILL make you your own mini pizza that is pretty good! The restaurant needs a bit of sprucing up, polishing, painting and deep cleaning but it doesn’t detract from how nice it still is. Also great responsive staff that are super helpful. Only downside was the group of young men cursing up a storm when there were children present. Our staff was about the same age so I don’t blame her for not doing anything about it.

Well first off i LOVE chick-fil-a! But this one here in Lincoln City kind of was a disappointment. The restaurant was a horrific mess. Food all over the floor. Bathroom nasty. Stuff just not kept clean and neat. I have a ,celiac disease,a gluten allergy, and the guy didn’t really know much about it seemed. Well the bottom line is if the restaurant is so dirty i felt like my food wouldn’t have stayed Gluten free either. It was a disappointment but would just like to give a word to someone yo step up the cleanliness of the place! I do love chick-fil-a btw 😊

Metro Dining has the BEST customer service around and they are so caring for their employees, it makes dining with them even more enjoyable. They are always working to improve their website, selections, and service, and are very easy to communicate with. We order from them more than we probably should because it's so easy, fast, and they have so many restaurants to choose from. They are always very careful with our allergies, too. My partner has Celiac's disease and I have a tree nut and coconut allergy, and the employees are always thoughtful enough to get us gluten-free soy sauce when we order Chinese, even if we don't think to ask. Highly recommended!!!

Flipped a coin for lunch and Muchachos won. Glad it did! The staff was very friendly (we called twice beforehand with questions about their menu). My friend loved her gluten free lunch and I got the 3 meat platter. Good portion of meat and the sides were good, as well...my son loved the leftovers. We didn’t realize they have breakfast (coffee-really good) and adult beverages. I don’t eat out much but will definitely put Muchachos on my, “go to”, list. I can’t wait to try their breakfast menu.
