I was linked to this place because of my many food intolerance. However, I couldnt understand why my stomach hurt after eating their delicious fried rice. I later found out that they cook everything in corn oil and I have to stay away from that. Aside from that, they have gluten free options and the food is very good.

The impossible meat and gluten-free family box of eight burgers are amazing. The staff is also very chill and friendly, and the space is airy and welcoming.

I had never been here, but I will definitely be coming back! The wait staff was very friendly and service was fast. They have both inside and covered outside dining. The food was fabulous! I was absolutely thrilled when our waiter told me all the mole is gluten free! I got chilequiles with the poblano mole. It was divine. We also got chip & guac and the salsas on the side were delicious.

Who doesn’t love a pizza spot that serves slices, gluten free pizza (medium only), sandwiches, salads etc? Wonderful service, clean, cashless pay. We’ve also done parties here.

I’m gluten free due to an allergy and Well Grounded is a gem to have found in my local community. They even have a dedicated toaster for their delicious GF bagels and are very careful with cross contamination. 5 stars for sure!!

I went there with co-workers I ended up just getting some french fries because I have Celiac which is a allergy to gluten wheat barley oats and rye so going to Nations was probably not the best option for someone with celiac but none the less I ordered the french fries and they were very tasty and fresh they had an amazing variety of pies on hand that I badly wanted to try as they looked really really good but unfortunately due to my allergies I was not able to do so my co-workers on the other hand tried the key lime pie and the coconut cream pie and they were ecstatic ended up licking the plate as apparently they really enjoyed it the bathrooms were clean the restaurant was very clean and the wait staff was very friendly I would definitely go there again 🙂

My new favorite Thai place. Fast, super fresh, lots of veggies and live herbs. The service is fantastic, our waitress was from Thailand and very sweet. The location is second storey, with views into the Berkeley hills - not a common restaurant view by any means. Yes, they serve beer and wine. Yes, the menu is flexible to be gluten free and vegetarian friendly.
