Higy recommend this place. The staff are welcoming. I enjoyed the gluten-free crust and the pizza is amazing!

Indian Masala is a hidden gem and definitely has a dive aesthetic which I think is charming. Probably my favorite Indian Restaurant in the Twin Cities area right now since the food is so flavorful. I love the buffet which accommodates people that are vegetarian/vegan and/or need to be gluten free. The Butter Chicken and Chicken Biryani are my favorites.

I always come here to get a hot sandwich to bring to work with me. Glad they have gluten free bread.

Chipotle guacamole is one of my favorites, totally worth the extra price. Great gluten free option in their bowl and chips. (Disclaimer: Gluten free is used very loosely as it is still a gluten filled environment with a high potential for cross contamination.)

They use the app. Paying with the app notified the server that payment had been received. App can calculate the gratuity as a percentage or set amount as well as link to their rewards program. Great food and service! 😀 Part of why I eat here is their gluten free procedures to prevent cross contamination. 👍👍

I love how understanding and accomodating the baristas who work here are. I have had a really hard time transitioning into a dairy free gluten free diet due to some recent auto immune health concerns and the manager (Taylor) took the time to check and relay to me items on the menu that might cause inflammation to my body that I wouldn't have intuitively suspected. It has helped a lot when visiting other coffee/tea houses to have an insight like this going forward. I also noticed several poor reviews in a short time span on this location, but the women mentioned have never been anything but candid and kind in my experiences. Hopefully this review can help balance out some of the unjust tainting of how hard this Starbucks location works. It sounds like some people chose to group together to bash one employee, so hopefully the collective gang up against Tia is taken with a grain of salt.

The wife is Gluten Sensitive and we've found the Chicken Poppers are a great option for her. It's rare to find a good Gluten Free chicken appetizer that's good enough to have as a small meal. The food is good quality, fresh and at a good price. If you haven't given them a try, it's worth taking the time to check them out.

Wonderful happy crew!! Excited to try the antipasta salad an the cheeseburger pizza that Lane recommended.. hoping for future gluten free pizza there! Maybe?? Or no crust in an aluminum pan. Or get udi's crust? Hoping so! Your pizza smells amazing!

Fantastic service, extremely quick turn around from ordering to getting our food, and a delicious meal. I will be coming back! The mexican street tacos could be made gluten free, so thats always a plus!

The best Noodles & Co. I have ever graced. I would say the only con to this place is how hard it is to enter. The small turn to get in is like the final boss of a video game - impossible to beat. Spent about 10 extra minutes just trying to enter. Nonetheless, all of my grievances resolved when I finally did. The inside of this Noodles is pristine - so clean! A nice contridiction to the Noodles & Co.s that I usually go to. Their cleanliness was a good sign from the start, a reflection of their great employees. I didn’t catch the cashier’s name, but it was a woman with brown hair. She was so nice! Granted, it wasn’t very busy, but she greeted us right away and gave us time to peruse the menu. I’m Celiac (Gluten free, basically) so I had to customize my order a little bit to make sure there was no gluten. She understood right away and was so accomodating! She even made sure that I knew that the grilled chicken might have cross-contamination & made sure to let them know it was an allergy. One of the nicest fast-food cashiers I have ever met! Very caring & emanated good vibes. My friend and I sat down, and our food was out within minutes. Not to mention, the presentation was spectacular. Could have been on Chopped, or a Gordon Ramsay show. She even presented our forks to us on a separate plate with napkins. For a Noodles & Company, this was fine dining. When I had to use the bathroom and realized it needed a secret code to enter, she came and entered it for me right away, without me even asking. So well put-together and organized. The food was delicious as well, and I say this as a gluten-free person who really only tastes good food every once in awhile. It was great. So happy. Not even mentioning the frickin all-knowing, customizable soda machine. The person who invented those things and decided to put one inside of every Noodles ever is an angel descended from heaven that knows exactly what the people of America want. It’s just glorious. So, to summarize, if it’s date night in Minnesota and you’re craving Noodles, this is the only one you should ever go to. Trust! A hidden gem (Literally hidden- hard to find without a map).

There was a little bit of a wait. The server was friendly, and patient. The Gluten free menu is small, the food was very good
