Food was very good, especially with Celiacs disease!! Owner is absolutely insane but in a good way, kind of difficult to describe. Highly recommend.

We went with Verde Cocina as the caterers for our wedding and could not be more pleased with the decision. Literally everyone came up to us to rave above the food. Having the EVO grill there made for a fun addition to the reception and also really made people feel like they were getting the most fresh high quality food. The cocktails were grabbed up almost immediately. Our only regret there was not buying more cocktails. The first bite of crab cake we got after hours of photo taking and wedding stuff will go down as a top 5 bite of food i've ever had. the sentiments were shared by many. Verde Cocina being a gluten-free restaurant and being very sensitive/aware of dietary restrictions was such a massive relief for us and for guests. Arro(in charge of the catering) was so quick with communication, extremely personable, and made the menu selection process a real joy. He's also just a nice guy, by the time we'd actually gotten married he was so excited to say congrats. Probably more that could be said, but I would just say if you are still looking for a catering option, just contact them. It will be worth exploring.

Choosing to sit in the bar area during a busy, rainy Saturday was the right move. We were able to immediately get a seat and service was fast despite how busy they were. I tried their gluten free beer and it was really good - so many others are terrible. My husband loves their IPAs so he was in heaven.

The Beet Rueben, The Walnut Chorizo Quesadilla, The Utopia Dream Salad, The Gilt smoothie, Garden Scramble…Love this place! And I feel safe coming here with my Celiac Disease which is huge.

I was in town visiting a friend who has a severe gluten allergy and I found Bamboo Sushi on the gluten free app. Looked into it and made a reservation. Informed the server of the allergy and she said there were only 2 items with gluten. One was the burger but could likely be substituted with lettuce instead of the bun and another was an option garnish. Even the tempura is gluten free which is very rare. We decided to get Wasabi Honey Chicken and Smashed Avocado crispy rice as an appetizer. The chicken was really good, had some heat/spiciness, but excellent flavor. The Smashed Avocado crispy rice was really good too but we both liked the chicken more. She got the Unicorn sushi and asked for eel sauce, and I went with the green machine which is vegetarian and asked for spicy aioli. We both really enjoyed the food and we ended with the Matcha panna Cotta. I'm not a fan of matcha so it wasn't for me, but she really enjoyed it. We enjoyed the food so much we came back 2 nights later with her Aunt and ordered chicken karaage for an appetizer (no picture). She got the garden of Eden Sushi and the Friday the 13th sushi and enjoyed both but I think she likes the Friday the 13th better. I got the chili garlic chicken with steamed rice which was very tasty. And her Aunt got the grilled octopus (no picture) and said it too was delicious. Highly recommend checking Bamboo Sushi out. It's a small restaurant and can be a little cramped but the food is delicious!

The chicken was surprisingly delicious. Would recommend that. A few non alcoholic drink options, which was nice! Gluten free options clearly labeled.

Accurate name! This place doesn’t fail to deliver. Awesome gluten free options, in addition to vegetarian. Salad was super, super good, fresh, flavorful, adorned with flowers. Service was also top-tier, they were very attentive, especially to my celiac dietary restrictions, fast, friendly.

I had the pleasure of dining at G-Love today, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The ambiance was warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a cozy meal. The staff were incredibly attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Waiter asked for any dietary restrictions, let her know I was gluten free and dairy free, came back with a menu of what were yes’s, no’s, and moderate’s. I’ve never had any restaurant do that for me. So I was extremely thankful for that! The highlight, of course, was the food. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. I particularly enjoyed the pork skewers, the avocado plate, and the broccoli, which was cooked to perfection and had a delightful blend of spices. Overall, G-love exceeded my expectations in every way. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. I can't wait to go back! -Kindly Maria

Great gluten free options, and was mindful of my celiac

Solid, reliable food that you literally can't go wrong with. Always served with a smile and what I appreciate most, other than the whole ingredients, is the fact that it's truly priced fairly. For those who are Gluten-Free, we love that Whole Bowl is fully gluten-free! Bonus? The serve Nate's Oatmeal cookies which are the best (and also GF)! 🙌🏽
