Impeccable vibes and service here. Absolutely delicious, high quality ingredients…and one of the only places I know that makes gluten-free naan bread, that is so good! Whenever I come here I feel like I’m traveling to India, even though I’ve never been. They are as authentic as it gets.

This place is amazing! The sandwiches, especially the bistec and cubano, are the most famous items, but the main dishes also shine in this restaurant. The portions are generous, and the drinks are very tropical and fun. They don't serve alcohol, but it's not needed because the food itself is the main highlight here. I loved the gluten-free option for the sandwich; it was a clever twist, rather than using bread, they serve the sandwich between two tostones. I would rate it a 10/10!

I am so incredibly happy with Mulberry Pizza as Bill and his team totally came through for a last-minute order for a corporate luncheon. I really appreciate how easy they were to work with. Plus, the food was excellent! They have a wide variety of choices which makes it so much easier when trying to feed a group of people. I also very much appreciate how they offer gluten-free pizza options! Thank you so much to Bill for helping my team and I out and I look forward to many future orders from Mulberry Pizza!

We really enjoyed our trip to the Taj for their lunch buffet. The buffet included chai tea and hot, fresh buttery naan bread. But in addition, we also received a cheese filled, gluten-free dosa! Buffets allows you to try many items, pace your meal as you like while socializing but many have disappeared since the pandemic, so the Taj is a good place to go with a group of friends. A public parking structure is also available right behind the restaurant.

We love going this place, especially the lunch buffet. It’s tasty, reasonably priced, not too crowded (at the time of this review), and best of all, labeled vegan and gluten free options. The staff is very knowledgeable about diet restrictions so it’s great knowing I won’t get ill after lunch. I’m not vegan or gluten free but I am severely lactose intolerant. They include lactose free roti (flatbread) upon request, but for those that can eat it my husband says the garlic naan is even better! Buffet options vary, and if you’re ordering dinner from the menu you can pick your spice level.

Good in almost every way! * Includes vegetarian choices and Gluten Free options. *One thing that did not make sense is cheese is an extra charge on a $20 burger and garlic on fries is extra charge. Not sure what that is about.

Great place for gluten free stuff. With sandwiches/toasts you get more food than with regular bread--since the slices are smaller, they just give two portions. I got toast with turkey and cheese and it was like 3 meals.

Found this after lunch at Pho Viet, what a find! We spent $100+ on pasta, sauces and mushrooms... a few weeks later it is all gone and we need more! fantastic sauces and the pasta are so much better than even the higher end store bought brands. I really struggle with gluten and for some reason do not have a bad reaction to their pastas. I also bought the gluten-free, which as another reviewer noted, is the best they have tried. Totally agree. Drive out of your way to shop here!
