I love Explorado! A cozy place to read, story or work and delicious gluten free selection. It’s celiac friendly, everything is gluten free. I like to get the cake slices from the fridge and a few cookies!

One of the best restaurants in town! Especially for gluten free friendly options. The service really stands out here- all the staff is so accommodating and friendly. Tonight I had a situation where they ran out of an essential element in the meal I ordered. Our server, James, and the owner Heidi were extremely sweet and went above and beyond to make sure I still had a pleasant experience. Thank you!!

My husband and I had dinner here and it was outstanding from start to finish. Our waiter, Jeffrey, did an amazing job making recommendations for us. We started with the Calamari. It was outstanding. I have Celiac Disease, so being able to get gluten free Calamari was a real treat. The tangy sauce on the Calamari put it over the top delicious for us. We also shared a wedge salad, which was on point! We had the Filet Mignon with Scallops and took Jeffrey's suggestion to swap the side dish for an order of the GF Carbonara (for an additional charge). It was AMAZING. I loved it so much I was wishing I had room to order a 2nd dish of Carbonara. We finished it all out with the Chocolate Hazelnut Torte. It was just as amazing as everything else. Next time we're in Fort Collins, Rare will be a must stop location for us.

We usually love BJ’s for their food, service and gluten free options for my wife who has a gluten allergy, this visit was a exception, however, service was slow, it took forever for our food to come out, my wife’s meal came out and luckily we questioned the bun on her sandwich as it was ordered gluten free and was supposed to be gluten free and it was not, if my wife would have eaten it she would have been sick for the night, by the time her food finally was redone and brought to the table I was done with my meal, we never saw a manager anytime during the entire visit, they usually do a very good job but this experience was very disappointing After posting this I was contacted by someone from the corporate office that was very apologetic and concerned about what we experienced. He wanted all of the details of the visit and assured us he would follow up on this situation. Since this was isolated and they showed concern we will be visiting again as we have always loved it there prior to this visit. Update, after posting the review and talking to the director of operations I am totally satisfied with their concern and assurance of follow up on this situation, like I said this was a isolated experience here and will definitely return, I was reassuring to see their concern and follow up
