Steffani Pouliot

Love the gluten free options and very fast service! Highly recommend this for a quick and delicious meal

Linda Sullivan

Love this place! Recently attended one of their Thursday night events - A Wild Pair: Cocktails and Desserts. Fabulous desserts, unique cocktails and friendly, personal service. You would not believe the desserts are all gluten free and vegan, but they are and taste AMAZING!

Sara Bishop

I was so impressed with the amount of gluten free options and their knowledge for cross contamination.

Sue Warren

What a great choice for an eclectic crowd! Had a Vegan with us as well as gluten free and no dairy. Something for everyone and delicious. My sister and I split a dish. They brought it out already separately plated and the portions were still huge. Fantastic.

Luke DJ Live Clark

What a great place, kind staff and great lil selection of food , gluten free options galore too!

Elaine Blain

The cucumber lemonade was incredibly refreshing after a long summer day in a hot worksite. There were many delicious options and plenty of gluten-free substitutions available. The Turkey panini and Brussels salad were perfect. I will definitely be back when I'm in town again for work - I want to try the entire bruschetta menu!

Rebecca Martos

This is my go to brunch spot. There are healthy options as well as indulgent ones. Very flavorful. Friendly staff. I am addicted. Fresh juices are amazing as well as coffee drinks. They also serve alcoholic beverages. I don’t drink, but they look so amazing I am always tempted to try one. They also do an amazing job for Mother’s Day. It can be a long wait so get up early, but it’s a special treat. I am one of those gluten free people but I can’t help but cheat with their pancakes on occasion. My typical healthy order is the sweet potato bacon smash up.

It's basically a fast food order when you get there. Then you seat yourself and the person that takes the order brings you your food. Everything else is up to you. I was stupid enough to tip them ahead of time thinking that I was going to receive service. I received a couple of ice with a shot of coffee for $6. $16 for a gluten-free egg and avocado sandwich. $3.99 for a half a bowl of fruit. My daughter ordered a burrito and when she lifted it off of her plate it just dripped grease. I guess some people like it like this but the potatoes are soggy hash browns. Cost $58 for two breakfasts. A burrito, some soft & soggy hash browns with a smoothie and a gluten-free sandwich, iced coffee, with a half a bowl of fruit. $58 Like I said, it's pretty much fast food, with cafe seating. You help yourself

Great vibe. Comfort food at its finest. Gluten free haven, also awesome for Gluten gobblers

Denise Drake

Food always consistently good. Servers excellent and kind. My go to for a healthy lunch w gluten free options!

Ryan Humphrey

The chile rellenos were the stand out, and available as gluten free. The short rib fell off the bone which was nice, but not quite the flavor I was hoping for it to have. I would recommend skipping the pasta here as the flavor lacked luster. I would come back if I was in the area again, but only for the chile rellenos.

Gluten Freeky

Great spot for healthy, easy meals! Staff is friendly and food is good. They have many gluten-free options! My favorites are the Raw veggie salad, tuna wrap, and peanut protein bowl!

Jennifer Quillin

Our first visit, and we enjoyed the live music and our dinner. PHB Bowl was delicious variety of fresh ingredients and delicious pesto on moist, smoky chicken. Watermelon salad was ok, but tasted bitter and like the citrus was fizzy & fermented. Too much onion. Thankfully able to get a low top (mobility issues, can't do high top chairs), but the metal seats are very uncomfortable. Menu has a good selection of gluten-free and vegan options. The restaurant was less noisy on the other side, but pretty loud where we were seated (avg 80 decibels). Dog friendly patio and fun place to go.

Jessica Gransbergen

One of the best spots in AZ for so many reasons! They have the most friendly staff and the best tea I’ve ever had in my life (Karak tea)! Also, I am gluten-free and they are kind enough to make me a gluten-free crêpe when I’m in there. I’m becoming a regular! Do yourself a favor and become a regular too! You will not be disappointed!… Oh, and they are open late, too!

The bad - Holly (the manager) was very rude and impolite from the get go. When we walked in, she asked how many. We told her and she asked if we could split up. We told her we did not want to and she reacted very negatively and put out by the response. We said we are fine to wait longer and could sit outside. The whole point of eating out is for us to be together and we don’t feel like it was unreasonable for us to not split up. We also had another issue with her. We are from out of state and we’re not aware outside drinks are not allowed in restaurants. She was very rude in telling us and did not really explain anything. She just told us we can’t have outside drinks. We put our drinks away under the table and we’re not drinking from them. We assumed that’s what she meant. However she came back by and said to us, “ I appreciate you trying to hide them, but outside drinks are not allowed.” We were not trying to “hide” anything. The way she said it was so condescending and accusatory. We just had no idea that putting them away was also not allowed. We have no issue following the rules or being corrected, but there is a baseline level of respect/decency that you should give to all people. I understand that people may have a rough day but you should still be kind. Manager should understand this. The good - Our waitress, Rain was incredible. She was so kind and apologetic and really turned our experience around. She made us feel welcome and took great care of us. She even chased us down in the parking lot to give us a forgotten to go box! She really was a highlight of the experience for us. The food was also amazing, it tasted great and the gluten free options were a plus. Portion sizes were also very large and worth it. Overall it is a great place aside from the manager Holly. Reading the reviews, Holly seems to be a recurring issue for people. If they hire more people like Rain and give more coaching on customer service to Holly, it can be an amazing place from all angles.

Frances Dairman

Good gluten free options.

Tim Tours Tempe

Best pizza in the downtown Tempe area open late great staff. The have a gluten-free pizza option. My personal favorite is a made to order 12" Regular Pizza with Pepperoni. The Ranch Dressing is a must get either for your wings, pizza or salad. It is worth the price to add to your order (included with some items) Ranchgate made the local news as it was the 1st time they started to charge for a side of Ranch. I will buy pints of Ranch to take home from time to time. The staff are friendly they are open late and they recently added Touchtunes music option. Italian Ice is a newish menu item they have several flavors and it's made fresh in house. Treat yourself today to a slice and an ice cold beverage.

Heidi Evilsizor

This is one of my favorite dessert places! I have multiple food allergies and they make it so easy to order allergy free food! We've tried a number of their acai bowls and all have been delicious! Their fruit toppings have always been quite fresh and delicious! And their gluten free granola is superb!

Anton Ivarsson

G-Gems gluten free was great

Big Wave Dave

Didn't have any GF menu items that they thought were 100% safe for celiac but Chuck Norris pizza was good.

Tammy Stafford

Met a friend for happy hour. Not too impressed with the bar service. They were not busy, but just busy talking to each other. Brussel sprouts modified with no dairy were good. Kinda soggy. A gluten free bun fell apart while trying to eat. Burger was good, cooked medium and added bacon

Brenda Moran

Great gluten free options love there enchiladas chips salsa homemade

Brittany Lee

This morning I stopped by D’Lite to pick up some lunch and the man who took my order was so sweet and friendly and accommodating to my dietary restrictions! My doctor has me on a gluten free diet with other restricted ingredients and the man who took my order gladly helped change the ingredients in my order! It’s a relief knowing I can go somewhere for quick food and receive friendly understanding service!

Lisa Novakowski

Wonderful food and delicious beer! I had the brewers pub...like a French dip. It was so delicious. The meat was tender and juicy and the jus had great flavor. I had a WOW beer that was crisp and fresh. My husband had the chicken tenders and fries. It was a wonderful piece of chicken with great breading and the fries were deliciously crisp. He had the WOW light in a can and liked that mix w lemonade. My daughter who is gluten intolerant had the chicken enchiladas. They had great flavor with delicious shredded chicken. She had the suace on the side which was good for her because it was a bit spicy. The rice and beans were amazing too, great flavor!

Diana Stocker

Breakfast tacos are a great gluten free option!

James Fife

Always great food. Tons of gluten free options.

liz w

Food was incredible! Accommodated gluten-free eating really well. Service was really great and friendly. Would definitely come back!

Ms Alhadi

Hello Celiac and Gluten free friends , I tried early bird vegan and it was so delicious . Look at how big my sandwich was . It was also so delicious and the staff were excellent . They knew all about cross contamination and everything . I have the famous Dr. J with gluten free bread. Honestly they had so many options that I will go and try again . Thank you ladies

Emily Logan

Amazing GF options if staying at the Westin! Servers are very accommodating and GF options are clearly marked on the menu.

Lior Seidel

GF pasta

Sean Blanton

We had absolutely great food, but suffered from management issues. We are used to great, high quality food in Chicago and we are giving it high marks for food. However, we arrived after the rush at 8:30pm to long delays with table service, bar service and it took so long to give our order that they had run out of 3 of our top entree choices. The waitress seemed stressed and was clearly conflicted between being personable and getting things done - not her fault. In the end we had a nice server and great food, a beautiful interior (it was dark so no view), but nothing else was to the same standards as the food. Chicago prices as well. (Hotel and resort restaurants are never as good as independently owned ones, btw). They were also REALLY fantastic for supporting gluten free dining

Elena Polikarpova

I had an amazing experience at Sushi 101! The sushi was incredibly delicious and fresh, with unique and creative rolls that blew me away. But what really made my visit stand out was the exceptional service from the staff. They were so helpful and accommodating, especially when it came to my gluten-free diet. They took the time to explain which options were safe for me to eat and even offered to modify certain dishes to suit my needs. I felt so well taken care of and appreciated their attention to detail. Can't wait to come back!

Allison Davis

5/5 this is the vegan lunch stop of your dreams. gluten free friendly too! the food was flavorful, filling, and great portion sizes. I will be making this my go-to lunch spot when in Tempe.

Aylin Mendoza

The food here was very delicious. They even offer Gluten-free pancakes. However, the service was kind of slow & the restaurant did not seem busy at all. When we did eventually get service the staff seemed friendly. It’s a cute place might give it another shot.

Lindsey Crosland

So good!!! I drive by almost everyday but have never stopped to eat. Today we grabbed dinner here and loved everything. (Best gluten free sandwich I’ve had as well). The kids meals are a great portion size and super tasty. my BLAAT sandwich was delish. I love that they cook all their meats in-house. The next best thing would be if their meat was grass-fed. I didn’t ask. We’ll be back!

Maria

The gluten-free version of their grilled breakfast sandwich was perfect. I requested grilled corn tortillas to replace the bread. When I got served, I sprinkled it with Tapatio, salt, and pepper. You have to request it. It's not on the menu. I'm used to making requests to accommodate my gluten intolerance, and the staff and cook were on it. Other plates ordered were mango and coconut crepes that were unique, tasty, and plentiful. Friendly service, accommodating kitchen staff, good food. We should support this restaurant !

Shannan M

This place has a great selection of menu items both drink and food that cater to a ton of different allergens and food preferences! The burritos can also be done gluten free by making it a bowl! You just have to make sure you communicate your allergy and the staff/chef are willing to accommodate if they can! The portions are filling and the quality of food is tasty and well seasoned. I would recommend a stop in!

ThreeMallards

Serious breakfast and good variety. Will cook the eggs as you wish. Alas, no gluten free bread or pancakes, but will substitute corn tortillas.

louise moise

Great selection of food. Fresh and delicious. Very clean, polite friendly server. Would recommend for good gluten free options

Elizabeth Gednalske

Came in at midnight...Desiree was nothing but GREAT with customer service & holding it down with the crazy ladies that came in acting a fool after us. She deserves a raise after all that and on top I have celiac disease... the cook made my food SO DELICIOUS I couldn't even believe it at a Dennys but I'll be back for sure 😁 the two people working 6/23 at midnight need a raise or something but my goodness 100% with everything from the customer service to the food 🥰

Chloe

Great hidden gem! Doesn't have a ton of gluten free options. But well worth the trip as the food and margs are great

Kenneth Gmeiner

Staff is super attentive and friendly. Salmon board presentation was way above the norm and the quality of the salmon was superb. They also accommodated no gluten. We also were listening to fabulous acoustic guitar music. Highly recommend!!

D H

Oh heck yeah! Awesome tenders! Best ever! I had a low expectation when I came in. $13 for three wings I was skeptical. But these are huge! I grew-up & lived in and near Louisiana, so I love HOT. I got the “Spicy” wings and I ordered one extra wing at the hotter level. There was not much difference. But the habanero taste is fantastic and plenty of heat. It’s not long lasting so don’t panic. But if you get the Houston We have a Problem, IDK. You might have a problem. Only try that if your a gluten for punishment. Although I do feel that $4 for one extra wing was too much. You can do a “Add-on” for two dollars and making worthwhile. It’s way better than Nashville hot!! They also have a nice selection of beer. I love this place! Totally impressed! My only complaint is, if you’re going to have pay for sauces, then give me my dang sauce! Don’t make me ask for it! There are plenty of TV’s scattered around to watch sports! There is no bad view. Huge bonus! Also nice outdoor seating area. Another big bonus.

Kathy Hudson

Excellent homemade food, bakery, great menu!!! Clean, casual, took friend for banana pancakes! Wish they had gluten-free desserts.

Dr. Josh Bock

They have a gluten-free menu. My wife has Celiac and is very sensitive. I am very grateful for a restaurant that has safe kitchen practices. We had a wonderful experience. I have seen other reviews about customer service and I found our experience to be the opposite. They were attentive and we did not have any problems at all.

Jeremy Ciaramella

It's Denny's. ...what more to say? My wife likes the skillets, because many are gluten and dairy free, and they'll often accommodate putting the sauce on the side and exchanging things for alternate steamed veggies. This Denny's has friendly service and good fare. ...for Denny's!

Qiana Mayberry

Perfection! Great Location, cool laid back spot. Boutique style. Great food and good service. The gluten free pancakes are delish! You only need one though!

T. Ray

Such a fun place to hang out with friends, eat, and play games. The food is pretty good; not amazing. But they do have plenty of gluten free options, including GF pizza crust, which we appreciated. If you're looking for something different to do with family and friends then this is a great place to check out.

Angie Rebennack

Nice location with great service. Impressive to see gluten free and vegan options.

Excellent food, service, and atmosphere! My wife and I were visiting from Chicago, saw the sign for half-price wine on Wednesdays. The bartender/server immediately welcomed us, took time to discuss the restaurant concept and menu, talked me through gluten-free options. Very cute and cozy, we ended up eating here twice! More upscale than most places in the campus area, which we were looking for. The food was outstanding - Tim the chef came out and talked to us personally, even shared the secret to his short rib sauce! 😁 I hear that brunch is their specialty, but we ate here twice for dinner; highly recommended. The dinner crowd is sparse, but we liked that - it was a great date-night spot. We'll definitely be back next time we come to town!!
