I recently had the pleasure of ordering from the DT San Mateo location via DoorDash, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. As someone who follows a gluten-free diet, I'm always a bit cautious when it comes to ordering sandwiches, but the Spiffy Tiffy exceeded all expectations. I specifically requested my sandwich to be extra toasted to ensure the texture of the gluten-free bread was just right, and Zeferino, the staff member responsible for my order, truly delivered. Not only was the bread perfectly toasted, but the amount of ingredients packed inside was generous and satisfying. What truly set this experience apart was Zeferino's attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction. Upon calling to express my gratitude, Zeferino was incredibly humble and gracious, further exemplifying the outstanding service provided by this establishment. For those within the gluten-free community, you'll understand the excitement of finding a sandwich that not only meets your dietary needs but exceeds your taste expectations. I highly recommend the Spiffy Tiffy sandwich from this location to anyone seeking a delicious and gluten-free dining experience. Thank you, Zeferino, and the team at this location, for making this order a memorable one.

True quality is measured not just in flavor but in fellowship and Minako Japanese has both in spades. Judy and her mother offer a menu that easily accommodates both vegans and folks with celiac desease. Home-grown ume plums and meticulously stewed sauces will convince you this is about as authentic as it gets. Just remember to pull yourself away from the meal long enough to chat with the ladies who make this place so special!

Wow, really impressed. Delicious pizza (I will be thinking about that spicy calabrese honey pizza for a long time) with good gluten free options (including GF crust). Really nice interior as well.

One of our staple restaurants- gluten free Chinese food is a rarity and they do it so well!

Curry was amazing. I was a little taken back ar first thinking the bowl the curry was small but it was actually more than I could eat. There was shredded ginger in it which wad perfect. Everything about it was so good. Unfortunately it seems to have flour in the curry to thicken so if you have to be gluten-free be cautious. I forgot to tell them so my fault. Not sure if they can do it differently but the menu does have a note about dietary restrictions, so would appear they can accommodate.

Good noodle soup. The noodles have a very chewy in a good way texture with a lite gluten-wheat flavor. Soup broth base is solid for the dishes we had. Line to get in is crazy, plan accordingly. Also feels odd that you can’t get hot tea at this place. It’s definitely set up to serve as many people As possible and get you on your way
