Very clear gluten free options on the menu! Service was excellent - they made me a custom non-alcoholic beverage and offered to take it back if it didn't taste good. Lovely atmosphere. Potato pancakes are amazing.

Great tasting food. Now if they would only actually read orders. We ordered a gluten free bbq pizza and a lengthy note to remove the cheddar because we also have a dairy free diet in the house. They need to take more care.

I love this restaurant! I eat here regularly and I'm never disappointed. The service is amazing. Staff are so sweet and attentive, and they always accept changes to dishes for allergies or taste preferences. My dad is celiac and can eat practically everything on the menu here--huge range of gluten free options. I'm vegan and there are also so many delicious dishes I can eat, including their vegan al pastor street tacos (which are to die for) and huevos rancheros. They always accommodate my no dairy preference, even when I order online for takeout. Canasta Kitchen also has outdoor seating, which is so nice when the sun is out. I highly recommend this restaurant.

This vibrant Lao eatery has become a favorite spot for my family and me, offering bold flavors that resonate with our Filipino palates. The liberal use of fish sauce in their dishes creates a delightful umami-rich experience. Standout dishes: 1. Pad See Ew Beef: Perfectly balanced savory notes complement the soft, wide rice noodles. It's not overly sweet, allowing the flavors to shine. 2. Crispy Eggrolls: Served with fresh veggies and herbs for wrapping, these crunchy rolls are elevated by the accompanying dipping sauce. Pros: - Quick, attentive service - Accommodating of dietary restrictions (gluten-free options available) - Authentic Lao cuisine Cons: - The space gets quite noisy when busy - Parking can be challenging The restaurant tends to be packed during dinner hours, which contributes to a somewhat loud atmosphere. The high ceilings, while visually appealing, do amplify the noise. One unexpected touch is the single TV in the dining area, which adds a casual element to the ambiance. During our last visit, it was showing the Olympics. Overall, this place offers a solid dining experience with excellent Lao cuisine. If you can manage the occasionally hectic atmosphere and potential parking issues, you'll be rewarded with flavorful dishes and efficient service. It's a worthy destination for those seeking authentic Lao flavors in a lively setting.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I've always loved Jim's on Lincoln and a number of years ago when they opened Jim's On the Course it became my go-to place for a good breakfast or lunch and sitting outside enjoying the sunshine and warm weather in Alameda! My recent visit did not disappoint: I had the waffle combo that includes your choice of either bacon, link sausage, or sausage patties; I had the latter and a big cup of coffee. Delicious as always! I'm dining partner is gluten free and ordered breakfast with gluten-free bread that she said was the best she'd had and she wondered what kind it was... We'll have to find out! Highly recommend Jim's at either location!

As a Colombian living in the Bay Area I thought I had found the glory. I thought I was going to go and expect real Colombian bakery, but that wasn’t the case. First, the atmosphere wasn’t all that and I believe it had to do with the service, they were not that friendly. Second, the food was not that great. The pan de bono, which I was going for was disgusting. Luckily, I had ordered other things, but were just OK. I mean, for each their own, but this place is fake Colombian food. Even if they are trying be in the“gluten-free” wave, they should also have options of authentic Colombian things, that way people get a real taste of Colombian goodness.
