Burger was just adequate. Tomato was underripe. Bun was dry. Service/ friendliness was absent. They don’t ask for tips that may be why. Fries were good. I had a gluten allergic reaction after 30 minutes even though it’s reportedly a dedicated frier. Parking in the area is a nightmare… we wouldn’t come back.

I recently was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease and have to eat gluten free. The gluten free pizza here is incredible! I have been going to mellow mushroom since way before I got diagnosed and their food has always been amazing. I was just not expecting their gluten free menu to be equally as good! Love it!

Went for a Sunday Bloody Mary. As also was greeted as soon as we entered. Once entered, the bartender greeted us, asked if we would like menus. Had our drinks in less than 2 minutes. Could not ask for better. Even though we did not eat this visit, the menu has a wide variety or choices, including gluten free and vegan. The fiid has always been delicious.

Amazing experience at Sushi Rose! We absolutely loved everything we tried and the Japanese-Peruvian fusion flavors. We especially liked the Peruvian maki roll. The chef is from LA and knows his sushi! Our waiter Mark was so enthusiastic and friendly. I have celiac disease and they were accommodating and knowledgeable about gluten free food. All the soy sauce is GF (tamari). 10/10 would recommend!

We had amazing ice cream here, and the staff are so friendly! I got a scoop of dairy- and gluten-free mint oreo and faithful candy stash. The dairy-free ice cream was so SO good, and I was glad it was gluten-free too. And the candy stash was even better than it looked, which is saying something! There are baked goods and banana splits - hello delicious!!! I can't wait to bring a friend back and share an affogato flight, that will be so fun.

Great little spot! Great coffee and fun breakfast choices. I could find gluten-free alternatives, and even options with lots of veggies. I opted for huevos rancheros today, and was not disappointed! Even a good spot to come solo and sit at a bar window seat.

Absolute gem in the heart of downtown Winston-Salem! Everything about this place is great. Coffee is great & biscuits are great. They offer vegan & gluten-free option as well. Worth noting: the biscuits are not cheap, but the quality absolutely matches what you pay. Best biscuit in-town!

I’m in here right now lol. The coffee is great! The pricing is right with other places for the people who have read that it’s expensive. I’m glad to see they have gluten free pastries! I LOVE how it’s pet friendly. My dog enjoyed her pup cup! New hang out spot! I’m doing a paint by sticker book. I enjoy the atmosphere a lot:) 80s music is cool too.

Expect a quirky twist on your order with a casual vibe, but keep in mind the flavors might need a little more oomph.

The bartender thought she was ordering my burger as a lettuce wrap (after confirming with the kitchen that there was no gluten-free bun option), but in the system it was just "as a wrap." She offered to have them redo it, but I kept it for the novelty (I'm not strictly gluten free). It was decent, but under-seasoned (to be fair, I omitted the cheese) and I ended up adding ketchup (bacon jam would have been nice). The veggies were excellent as is.

My favorite pizza in Winston Salem! Love having authentic Italian pizza. Pretty sure they import all of their ingredients and even their ovens from Italy. Pizzas are big enough for 3 people usually. Lactose and gluten usually bother me, but these pizzas are light and do not upset my stomach
