You got to love in n out. And you can get a Gluten free version. They use crisp lettuce in place of the bun. It’s a fast food place like McDonalds, busy, loud, but the food is 5x better.

I went there twice waiting in line for other people to be served and when was my turn they say (Twice)Let me just make quick online order. I`m not going to wait if you don`t care for live humans standing upfront of you. Pizza like a pizza but paying extra $4 for Gluten free crust is a bit to much.

Delicious barbecue with many gluten free options. We loved the El Toro Fries and the Ribless Dinner. Friendly, fast service and reasonably priced.

Gluten free pancakes were good

Best sushi I've had in a long time! The specials are fresh and delicious, the menu is creative and there are tasty items I have not seen anywhere else. They even had ( gluten free ) tamari sauce! We had a varied crowd (vegetarian, celiac, foodie, and cooked food only people) and everyone loved their food.

The people at the counter refuse to give name information of anybody to contact with a restaurant issue, so then we have to come here and give a low rating, bad business. Nowhere on the menu do they want to tell the consumer the customer that there is an option of a gluten-free bun, I like gluten-free buns just for the heck of it just because and I don't want any kind of weird freaky type of sandwich because they made up their own rules of trying to serve this dry bun in a thick plastic wrap rather than giving it to me with the sandwich, In other words if you try to order a sandwich they will not give you a sandwich they would put it all separate and then you have to put it together yourself ??completely absurd, complete stupidity, very pathetic, "wake up" •••this is bad business..... "Cater to the customer"..... Have a better quality menu..... & also don't raise your prices so high.....

Fairouz cafe was a wonderful experience that created authenticity and love with their meal. This small service restaurant is tucked in an unassuming location but wows with it's exceptional service, personal touch, and home style feel. I typically shy from most Lebanese restaurants as what we have in Ohio is just mediocre. I eat gluten intolerant and struggle to find amazing experiences such as this. I would go out of my way to come back if I visit San Diego again. Fairouz has a quaint atmosphere with it's paintings adorning the wall done by the owner and gives way to it's same love and detail from the wonderful couple servicing here. We had a chat about toum sauce and the conversation was very helpful and educational. I enjoyed every aspect of this meal and had a joke about not wasting any tomatoes as I don't enjoy them. They had joked about not liking cucumber and that we should trade. they understood so they took to servicing my main dish accordingly. The sauce missed out on a little of that excess garlic as I prefer, but I loved it, as it was a great creation of this traditional Lebanese staple sauce. The chicken was cooked almost flawlessly with a wonderful seared on the exterior for a great finish. The pilaf was a little more plain but perfect for the side addition starch. The dinner salad was great. The feta was awesome and just purely blissful on this well balanced appetizer. There's no doubt in my mind you will enjoy this experience. I couldn't stop myself from eating before taking a picture for this review. Stay fantastic Fairouz. I hope to be back soon.

I got really bad food poisoning from eating at this location last night, in particular I got the mushroom sauce and grilled chicken with gluten free rotini. As soon as I called to speak to manager nicely cuz I’m not a Karen I’m just trying to make them aware of the situation the tone in her voice changed when she said she was the manager. She took my information and said they would be in contact. I understand customer service is hard so I’m as nice as possible, going through the situation I’m in right now isn’t fun at all so I didn’t appreciate the defensive attitude when they got me sick. Over all though server was great and attentive, my partner didn’t get sick as he didn’t order what I did but the night staff kitchen team messed up big time. Just wanted to make everyone aware is all don’t ordered what I did cuz you can get sick or maybe just a one time either way be aware!

Absolutely brilliant. Decided to stay in SD for the night. Wife found this place online and close. Greeted at the door, the owner and his wife both took our orders. Our daughter has celiac and they assisted her in picking the right appetizer and dinner. All the food was amazing and worth the prices.

Been coming here for over 10 years and it always hits! I have gluten intolerance and I've never been sick from here. The owners always take such good care of us and make just what we like. If you're looking for delicious food, a comfortable environment and friendly service, this is the spot for you.

The outdoor sitting area is sort of a enclosed greenhouse; nice and chill, I walked there so I'm not sure about parking. Food was a good portion size, I got the grilled chicken salad and they accommodated my request to use olive oil instead of seed oils and a vinaigrette instead of the tzatziki sauce. Service was prompt and meal was ready fast. Just skip the bread on the salad dish if you want gluten free.

Main Corp

Lunch buffet from 11am - 2pm, Monday - Friday. Request any pizza you want, salad, fries and cinnamon rolls! Outstanding customer service and friendly staff! Also has playstation at the bar, mini arcade and board games. Pizza is amazing and fresh! They also have gluten free dough options!
