My friend was in town for one night and we looked up places that had vegan and gluten free options for her. It was 5 stars so we decided to give it a try. I appreciate a beautiful asthetic environment, the decor was simple but elegant. Lighting was perfect. There is outside and inside dining. We started with the dolmas, beef & lamb with rice. Tender and delicious. We shared chicken and steak kabobs. They were beautifully presented, and perfectly prepared. Our server, Jonathan was spectacular! It was a slow evening and he was handling the tables inside and outside with skill. He was pleasant and funny and professional. This place is a gem! Don’t think about it anymore, go there now! You won’t regret it! I can’t wait to go back!

This place was great. I was visiting the area and searched the web for gluten free restaurants. The owner has Crohn's Disease and is extremely educated on the needs of diners with food sensitivities. He takes care to make sure there is no cross contamination by placing the gluten free crust in it's own pan and using a separate pizza cutter for the GF pizzas. The sauce was delicious and the cheese was baked to perfection. This was the most "normal-tasing" pizza I've had in a long time. Next time I'm passing through SoCal, I will make sure to grab a couple.

Had no expectations picking a highly reviewed Italian restaurant in the Pacific Palisades when I’m vegetarian and gluten-free. The couple sitting next to us were regulars and ordered something that wasn’t on the menu which looked great insane. They mentioned that the chef is very accommodating. So I ordered the gluten free penne with what the woman next to me had - porcinis and truffles. When the waiter brought the plate out he said please don’t ask for Parmesan as it’s perfect as it is. So I said ok. And omg it was a delicious dish! Highly recommended. My wife and friend were also delighted by their meals. We became friends with our neighbors. The service was great too. Will definitely come back 👍👍👍

I had lunch here during a full day visit. For Gluten free options they had soup and salad. They said they could do a hamburger without a bun, but the risk of cross contamination was too great for me. It all tasted great and cost about $20. The coffee cart has a gluten free Coffee Cake one day and a pumpkin muffin the next which were great.

Great smoothies the gluten free maccaroons were good but a little tuff.
