If you haven't had the opportunity to eat at Cafe Desta you are missing out. This restaurant has the best Ethiopian/Eritrean style food around. The food is delicious and the service exceptional. Also if the raspberry almond tart is available TRY IT. It's a gluten free dream. We had one slice and then bought the entire pie. Highly recommend this hidden gem 💎

I've been coming to this location for years and always had a good experience until today. Seems like it's new management. I ordered a burger on a gluten free bun. Service was slow and the place wasn't busy. When I finally got my meal and took one bite of the burger I knew instantly it was not a gluten free bun. When I asked if it was a gluten free bun, she said it was. I didn't accept her answer and another waiter looked at it and said it was NOT gluten free. The manager was very apologetic and said they would do another burger and get it right. They brought out a new burger but I had to ask them to bring frys since they took mine away. The manager said they would comp the burger but when I got the bill it was not taken off the bill. The waitress was not happy that I mentioned it. They finally took care of it. The whole experience was enough to keep me from going back. I thought they were dishonest and incompetent. Being dismissive about food allergies is bad business. To many other good restaurants that are more professional.

Pretty good burger. Nothing crazy good like Freddy's, but way better than a lot of chains. The reason this place stands out is the gluten free buns. They warm them up in the wrapper and they get soft and warm. It's pretty awesome to have it that way.

Being that my family is from Wisconsin and have Dairy and cheese farms I definitely know a thing or two about Custard, Cheese and a darn good burger and the first time I ever ate Culver's was up in Wisconsin. When they first opened up here I was super excited and I'll tell you what eating Culver's when I do is like eating for the very first time, every time. I am a born Native Tucsonan and have eaten every burger place out in Tucson and they can get quite boring after a while. So thank you Culver's for creating the first time every time I bite into one of your burgers. The Gluten free bun is pretty darn good as well. Sorry, no pictures I just can't seem to wait long enough! as soon as my food hits the table it's straight to the belly lol. The first bite always slows the heart beat and then after that it's like I'm not really sure what happens, I'm full but no burger it's gone almost as if a mad woman ate her burger like the butta burger beast lol. Enjoy!!

Large selection of starters, salads, bowls, main courses and pizzas. The restaurant values ​​fresh and healthy ingredients. There are also many vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options. This is very great! Attention: The Quinoa Bowl is called that, but it contains 95% rice and only traces of quinoa. That was a disappointment. It was very loud in the restaurant and we almost couldn't have a conversation. Otherwise nice atmosphere.

Pretty spendy but it's kind of worth it. The food was pretty good, very fresh. HUGE selection. It was kind of busy but the food came out in a reasonable amount of time. Service was solid. Large selection of cheesecakes, but not a lot of dietary restriction friendly options (gluten, dairy, sugar free) which was disappointing. Went with a $50 gift card and still ended up spending $70 out of our own pocket, so very not budget friendly. Overall a good time but only if you can afford it.

Five stars for excellent customer service today! It took the clerk a while to acknowledge us buuut it was because she was making waffle cones!! Which was pretty cool to watch and it filled the place with a sweet and delicious aroma!! I asked if they had dairy, soy and gluten free alternatives and she knew what they were right away. Lemon or raspberry sorbet. Sadly the only safe mix in was gummy bears but for my 8 year old he was absolutely thrilled! Hopefully in the future they will carry a couple of dairy free ice creams (chocolate hint hint) besides the sorbet! We stopped in today after the kid's first day of school to cool off and talk about how it went. The store was very clean. The clerk was very nice and helpful. They keep their freezers stocked with ice cream cakes, cupcakes and ice cream sandwiches that all looked absolutely gorgeous and decadent! We will definitely be back and I highly recommend them!!
