This was mine and my husbands first time at this restaurant and the service was wonderful! The lady taking our order at the register was knowledgeable of the menu and very accommodating to my gluten allergy. I ordered the Be'ef and Broccoli, my husband ordered the Loded Tacos, plus we got the CauliBites with the house seasoning, as an appetizer. They also made sure all of the items we ordered were gluten free. Overall, the food was delicious and we can't wait to come back to try more items from the menu!

I chose this restaurant while I was in town specifically because I have celiac disease and they had items on their menu that were clearly labeled as gluten free. What I was able to eat was delicious, but their gluten free labelling on the menu is incredibly misleading. I asked our server if the tortilla chips (labelled gluten free) on the menu were fried in a fryer that also fried foods that contained gluten and was told they are. So not gluten free. I asked if their corn tortillas for the tacos were warmed on the same surface as their flour tortillas and was told they were. So they're not gluten free. This sounds like an insane distinction if you aren't familiar with celiac disease, but I have had tacos make me sick this way in the past. Our server asked the kitchen to warm them differently and it was fine. And again, my tacos were delicious. I appreciated that the server communicated with the kitchen to warm my tacos. But if I had trusted the menu (or I guess just ASKED if things were gluten free vs asking specifics about how items were made) I would have spent tonight very ill.

I went here today with 6 members of my family. We had a great waitress, she was very friendly and attentive. We all got something different as far as our meals, and everyone was saying their food was delicious. One of us had the gluten-free pancakes. She said they were great. I got the Fried Chicken Salad. It was very good. My only complaint is that the bowl they serve it in is not user-friendly. While it is nice to look at and makes the food aesthetically appealing, you can't lay your fork and knife on the edge as you do when you're eating. 🫤 I had a great cup of coffee, and others had Mimosas. The restaurant was busy the entire time we were there. There wasn't a spare table, and people were sitting at the bar. But, the service is quick and the flow of people was moving quickly. We all agreed we will go back soon.

Tazza is my top pick in the Columbia area. You need to make a reservation, ideally a day or so in advance. Our table was ready at our reservation time. Our server was attentive without hovering and he was knowledgeable. I am Gluten Free and there are several items (appetizers, sides, main course) labeled as GF. I also do not drink alcohol and they had 3 mocktails on the menu. The food is delicious. Complex flavors, and combination which I either wouldn't have time or the ingredients to make at home. We don't go out to eat often, but I truly feel that it is always worth it to eat at Tazza. I always leave satisfied.

Thanks for the gluten-free menu. I wish the gluten-free biscuits didn't have dairy.

Cantina is always my go to restaurant especially in the city! The roasted chicken tacos are always my favorite! They have so many gluten free options too! The service at the bar or if you are sitting at a table is always amazing! The manager was very informative on higher shelf tequila and helped our group out tremendously! I will always recommended cantina! Can’t wait to visit again!

We’ll be back and ask for her again!!! Better keep this server Bonefish!!!!

Stumbled onto this restaurant while driving across the state and so glad we did. My wife has celiac and they were great keeping her food separate and were very knowledgeable! Everyone here was great! The food was phenomenal! The sauces were flavorful and not overpowering! If we are ever in the area again we will definitely be back but so glad we found it and chose to stop here.

Incredible food drinks and desert. I had a carrot cocktail which was amazing, yummy quail and local cheese, amazing SC fresh shrimp and the best grits I have ever had in a restaurant. To top it off a delicious gluten free and dairy free desert cake that was remarkable and one of the best gluten free desserts I have ever had. Service was perfect and great knowledge of all the foods and dietary restrictions. One of the best restaurants I have been to all year.

Very elegant dining experience! Food is expensive, but worth the splurge for special moments or if you can afford it. Steaks are top notch and premium sides are worth it. Very Gluten Free friendly! Will go again! p.s. might want to call first and make reservations, very popular...

Busy sit down breakfast restaurant🥚🥓 Very good food. Even has a bar area you can eat at. Some outdoor seating. Large menu. Some gluten friendly options. Lots of drink choices. Coke products including Coke Zero. Food came out very fast on a busy Saturday morning. Service is friendly and checks on you often. Located not far from downtown Columbia in a vibrant area with restaurants, shopping and bars. Parking can be a bit tricky. There is a small parking lot and on street parking. There is also a free lot up and behind the building a little hard to find.

Had several great experiences here. The tacos and margaritas are delicious. Lots of variety to choose from on the menu. Inviting atmosphere, professional service. Lots of gluten-free options, which is very appreciated.
