I highly recommend visiting this place, especially if you are looking for great tasting gluten-free and vegetarian options. The vibe is excellent, with an inclusive and friendly atmosphere. The portions are big and the taste and quality of the food is great. The only disappointment I had was that I was expecting the beer to be on tap, but was instead served a can. I would rank this restaurant as good value for money.

These wonderful folks took care of us and took immediate notice when one of us mentioned Gluten Free. Eating out while looking for GF options is a pain in most places, but that is not the case here by any means. Wonderful experience all around.

The vegetarian gluten-free pizza is the best I've ever eaten anywhere. It's just a stone throw away from the beautiful oriental theater. Warm atmosphere with all the ovens cooking. It's cool to see the doughy dough being flung into the air the size of the circular family dinner table.

Truly a treat anytime we get food here! We had a late notice dinner come together with our family 3hrs away - the owners were so accommodating in helping me put together an order that would feed 8, including 1 gluten allergy accommodation, and packaged it so that it would survive the travels without affecting the experience. Our extended family loved it, and we will definitely order from them again anytime we are craving their delicious food (which is often) Thank you again

Delicious, lots of gluten free options, feels like you're getting a fresh home cooked meal made with love and care. Worth the wait! My only recommendation is to put more sauce or at least have some extra easily available. I went up to the counter to ask for more sauce since my wrap was a bit dry but the staff was very busy. Plenty of tables, great location to meet up with friends as there is a variety of food vendors to choose from in the shared space.

Food was decent, black beans was more like a porridge. Service was polite and attentive. This location has both indoor and outdoor eating. They had some local beers on tap along with some Mexican favorites. Menu had vegan options available as well as gluten free options. They do offer daily drink specials as well as specials if you get three tacos.

I'd seen the space being prepared to open for months, and stopped in on a whim today because they looked to be open! The atmosphere of the diner is very bright and welcoming, and the staff were friendly and helpful. They have a mobile order/pay system that was super convenient, so I got to order at my pace without having to wait for someone to take my order. I got The Classic breakfast and a pumpkin pie smoothie, and everything was delicious! I have Celiac, and was assured the kitchen would use fresh pans/utensils for me, and the GF bread they had was delicious.
