I had the build your own pasta bowl with gluten free pasta,marinara sauce , turkey meatballs which were big and the focaccia bread and the cheese cake with raspberry sauce. My mom had the gluten free pasta and the Alfredo sauce with chicken. It was absolutely delicious and the best gluten free I've had.I highly recommend this restaurant. The have many options for people who have food allergies, are vegan or vegetarian and options if you don't have food allergies. The atmosphere is relaxing. I have eaten there before and had the gluten free pizza.it was very good.I will definitely be going back.

Absolutely worth the expense and experience! I come here to treat myself. I sit alone at the bar. I LOVE having a server anticipate my needs. The woman working the bar 10/10/24 did this beautifully. There were points during my time there, where I made soft eye contact and she knew what I needed, even when making drinks and serving other people! Impeccable service! The food is phenomenal! I ordered Brussel sprouts, butternut squash soup and a dragon fruit Arnold Palmer. This was my lunch yesterday, and I’m salivating thinking about it. If you like high quality thought out food this is great a place to be mindful about eating. The flavor combinations are spot on. I’ve ordered the spaghetti squash casserole, and gluten free pita bread, both delicious.

Ella at Lings was pleasant with a wonderful smile. She listened to understand which is awesome because my wife suffers from celiac disease. It can be very difficult to order because unfortunately the gluten-free diet was treated as a fad/preference instead of a autoimmune disease. This is detrimental to the lifespan of a person with celiac even in small amounts. (Over time with constant exposure) As for the food, my wife and I would agree it is amazing. The food was fresh, crisp, and most of all flavorful. With the great wok taste and no burn. The manager even approached the table the different times to make sure everything was up to our likings. He was professional as well as personable and made feel at home. We couldn't have asked for a better first time experience. Thank you

I ordered a gluten-free pizza. I wish more care had been taken to add the toppings evenly.

HIGHLY recommend this location if you are looking to host a special event! The staff is incredible — friendly, knowledgeable and so attentive. Plus, the food and wine options are incredible. I also appreciate their vast gluten free menu options!

Gluten free cones and dairy free soft serve options! They take allergies seriously. They have a dedicated gluten free mixer. And the ice cream was fantastic! Absolutely coming back next time we're in town.

Good portion sizes of the classics. There were a few vegetarian options and also gluten free buns and Impossible Burgers that are both vegetarian and gluten-free. The only dessert we had was shakes, but they were good. Nice crispy fries. The wait staff is nice and they brought a coloring paper and crayons for the kids in the party. The music is a bit loud for my taste.

I have celiac. We discussed the issue extensively with the server who assured me I was in a good spot and all would be fine. Unfortunately, it wasn’t. They messed up the order and brought out a wonton taco plated with the corn taco and the server advised the entire plate was gluten free. Only after eating the wonton did I discover the issue. The server apologized and contacted a manager. That’s where things took a bad turn. The manager, a very young blonde female, who clearly couldn’t be bothered with severe food allergies, came out, referred to the situation as a “small issue”, proceeded to blame me, and then offered three separate excuses for why this happened. Setting aside that each excuse was unsatisfactory, it was abundantly clear neither she, or the restaurant, took food allergies seriously. My valentines date/dinner was entirely ruined, not to mention a very expensive trip to Arizona, for which I am only on day 1 and will inevitably spend the rest of the trip in the hotel bathroom. Despite being celiac, I’m a foodie and eat in some of the best restaurants across the country. This may be some of the worst service, and particularly management, I’ve ever seen.

Love their skinny menu. More gluten free options please.

Sarah Donnell

Staff here are so sweet! It was really nice to have gluten free options as a celiac. Prices are up there, but I guess that’s par for the course in 2025 and as a GF option. If I was a local I would return!

30 minute line out the door at 8pm. Good ice cream, but super overpriced. I love the birthday cake it’s actually gluten free.

We had a great experience here across the board. The food was delicious and they were able to accommodate a vegan/gluten free diet. The vegan/gluten free dishes were the mushroom dish, cauliflower steak, and squash. The second two dishes required slight modifications to make vegan. The mushroom dish was unique and we ended up getting two because it was so tasty. The shrimp tartine dish was 10/10 as well. They were on top of the service and our primary waiter, Ricky, was incredible. Very friendly, knowledgeable, and fun. Highly recommend dining here!

I stopped by Wow Wow Hawaiian Lemonade in Scottsdale and had an amazing experience! The smoothie I tried was bursting with fresh, tropical flavors—absolutely delicious and perfectly refreshing. The allergy-friendly, vegan, and gluten-free options, including their homemade almond milk, really stood out. The vibrant, Aloha-inspired atmosphere made it even more enjoyable. Highly recommend for a healthy, tasty treat!
