As someone who is always on the search for delicious, local gf eats, this place definitely hit the spot! Food was surprisingly filling without being greasy, and had delicious complex flavors despite being outwardly simple. I tend to be a fan of Brazilian cuisine due to the great flavors and gluten friendly versatility, and this was no exception. However, I do wish they had more dairy free items (I am also lactose intolerant).

Beautiful decorations and lively but comfortable seating, the music was awesome. We had the drunken noodles, pad Thai, a sushi dish, appetizers, as well as spicy marg and a lovely drink called persephone. Reserving was easy, food wqs made very well (great options for spice level, vegan, gluten free etc.), we did not wait long to have great food and leftovers to enjoy. Came for a chill and wonderful celebrating occasion and had. an amazing time, I even had a separate problem after my reservation I had misplaced a belonging I found later on, still the staff and owner were so kind and quick to help me look. long live the mad monkfish, have been coming and ordering for years and always enjoy

It is very busy at noon on weekdays, but there is no shortage of seats. It feels like everyone is enjoying their leisure time amidst the noise. The food is delicious, there is a gluten friendly menu, there is no vegan food (you can adjust it yourself without adding anything), and you can't just make egg white.

Negligent with allergies!!! I explained I have gluten and dairy allergies which was written on the ticket and the person preparing the food was handling bread and immediately touched my food without changing gloves. If I hadnt looked up as it happened I would have gotten severely ill. I pointed it out and explained again that it's a severe allergy and would need them to change gloves and they still tried to give me the same bowl. Definitely not safe for people with actual allergies!!!

As SCRUMPTIOUS as all the baked goods are all are surpassed by the SWEETNESS OF MARCO! Went above and beyond to help me out. My off the boat elderly Irish aunt is DELIGHTED by the oatmeal currant scone, she raved about the sultanas in the pain aux raisins, she then went on to say "I couldn't possibly" about the pecan sticky bun but after a bite said she was glad she did. She is having me stay for dinner just so she can,eat the sticky bun in front of me to give me the play by play. For the gluten intolerant BOY HOWDY that brownie!

Again and again we return to L.A. Burdick and are amazed. Got lucky this time. The district manager happened to be in the shop and guided us to some really fun chocolate covered citrus, apricot and mango. Beyond good! Teas and snacks were delicious, and I enjoyed an amazing gluten free baked dessert. 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I'm a creature of habit and will get the same thing(s) for years before trying something new. Tatte has the absolute best gluten free bread I have ever eaten. The avocado they put on their breakfast sandwiches is a guacamole consistency, and they use lime. So I get the egg sandwich, with either haloumi or Vermont cheddar, and the kind of tangy/delicious avocado on top, and it is to die for. THAT BEING SAID, both Kendall square locations have issues with their eggs. There is one person in each establishment who can do Over Medium consistently. Most times I get very hard or very runny.

Fabulous hidden gem. Love the owners, originally from Taiwan. Fresh simple comfort food, like miso soup, dandan noodles, vegetarian sushi, great salads. And now amazing knitted hats and scarves, jewellery made by owner and hermultitalented daughter who is also a private chef who knows a lot about food sensitivities (like gluten sensitive) from personal experience. A simple unpretentious place on....Concord and Huron intersection in Cambridge!
