Great atmosphere, staff, and food! I recently went with a friend to try out their happy hour deals and it was such a lovely experience. As a local, it is so nice to have a great happy hour spot! For dinner, we both got the Bolognese dish and I got mine with gluten free pasta - the flavor and meal was outstanding! Thank you for having gluten free options on your menu!!

Adrian was our waitress and she was spectacular! I have celiac disease and it is sometimes hard to eat at restaurants. I’m impressed with Adrian’s knowledge of what I could and couldn’t eat and how to modify plates so I could eat them. She even brought me out my own chips and salsa so I didn’t have to dip in the gluten chips salsa that my friends were using. Super appreciate a knowledgeable waitress that is kind and helpful.

My wife had gotten the chicken there before but was just told the last time that it can have cross contact. (She has to eat gluten free) everything else was great! Our the order was messed up, but then was made right.

This place is amazing! The breakfast and pastries are definitely worth trying. I didn't even realize that my donut was gluten-free, it was so delicious. The coffee was also very well made, and the service was great. The small details, like turning the handle of the coffee cup when setting it down, show that the staff is highly trained and hospitable. Well done!

If you wish to eat fresh, healthy prepared food you must visit. I'm vegan and gluten free and did find something to eat and did not become I'll after eating out due to numerous allergies and food intolerances . It's clean food, a rarity when one eats out. It's also a great place to support since they source their organic food locally. Only suggestion I could make is that they should offer brown rice.

We are gluten-free, so we decided to try this place. Food was flavorful and they gave you a good amount. I really enjoyed the rice bowl, and the other two ppl enjoyed their tacos. The reason I am giving a 3 stars...we decided to order 2 pitchers of margaritas. We should have asked how much. We were sticker shocked to find out we got charged $92. If they weren't filled to the top with ice (also with so much ice, what a pain to pour)....and we got more than 4 drinks per pitcher, we may not have had an issue.
