Excellent pasta, homemade as well! I'm from the land of Italians, this is 100% a hidden gem. The gluten free pasta was also delicious. It was much fresher than any other gf pasta I've tried. My girl is allergic so we try it all.

Gluten free and dairy free options. Delicious! I recommend the Mongolian beef.

The food, service, and atmosphere are amazing! The only drawback of this Cafe is the hours of operation. It's in an office building, and in a very commercial part of the city so I totally understand but I also wish I had the option of swinging by and grabbing dinner before I head home. I had a Mediterranean salad that was very well portioned, filling and delicious. They made it to order so it's totally gluten friendly and dairy free. I would absolutely recommend this place for lunch to relax or a lunch meeting. They also sell GIANT bags of Cafe Moto coffee and support several other local brands which I love. Check them out!

We waited about 30 minutes to be seated. Which was a bit of a bummer because it looked like their were open tables. On the upside Jonah was so helpful with list of food allergy questions. He checked with the chef to see which dishes would work for my gluten sensitivity.

My gluten free 11 year old is on a boys trip with his Dad. He called me specifically to ask that I leave a 5 star review because he loved the gluten free chocolate chip pancakes so much. He ate 4 of them in 10 minutes. He was one happy customer.

f’n delicious. chicken karaage, black garlic ramen were delicious. had a completely GLUTEN FREE option for my wife and sister, and they loved it. 😤🍜

Alicia Wallace

Yummy ramen with a gluten free take as well which I appreciate! The Rudy curry was a unique spin on ramen I hadn’t had! They weren’t fully knowledgeable about where the soy sauce domes from (origin matters for my allergies) but overall very tasty and filling. Service was quick and professional and the interior was nice and comfortable. Decent amounts of parking.

Under new ownership. Unfortunately, they haven’t taken down the old photos of the dishes they no longer have that are still posted when you walk in. However, their smaller menu is delicious. The banchan was tasty but spicy which some may not like. We took a friend that was gluten free and they server did the best he could to accommodate and even went above and beyond to check some ingredients to make sure. Everything we had was delicious, the 3 of us shared 4 dishes and were more than full. The new owners definitely made sure to step up their game as we didn’t enjoy the place when we went years ago.

I was surprised by the number of vegetarian/vegan options! Multiple dishes with tofu and gluten

Good gluten free bun!! I'm not usually a big fan of sandwiches, but my work gets delivery from here often. I finally gave in and tried a meatball with GF bun. The bun was really good; bouncy and correct texture for bread. Everything was delivered separate to avoid the annoying "while my hot meatball sub congeals into a big fat disappointing blob of..." Soup Update: I ordered the $4 cup of chicken and veggie soup, thinking I would get mostly broth and some a few carrots. I was shocked to receive a container packed full of chicken and veggies with a delicious slightly spiced base. It really was good and very filling!

Stopped in for dinner, the restaurant was clean and welcoming, and the two ladies working were so kind! They made us delicious subs, and even accommodated a special request we made for a gluten free grilled sub. I’d gladly eat at this location again! :)

Freddie Thornton

I eat a lot of pho, at a lot of places. This is one of the best places to have pho and they also do it gluten-free. My daughter has celiac disease and a real gluten allergy. She only eats at places that guarantee their gluten free food preparation.

This place is sooo good and wait time isn't bad, especially because thou can get on the waitlist through Yelp, and if you're looking for a gluten free option for the chicken you can ask for it "naked" and they won't put breading on it! Such nice staff!

Diana Tracy

The food was excellent but I wished they had gluten free soy sauce.

Juju Dessert

Highly recommend pa nang curry 10/10, pad see ew 10/10. They made everything gluten free upon request and flavor wasn't sacrificed. Good prices for the amount of food you get.

Raymond Collins

Tasty poke, friendly employees. Gluten free soy sauce and poke sauces are great and allow folks with dietary restrictions to eat here, which is greatly appreciated. Healthy options, and very fast service make for an ideal lunch or dinner. I definitely recommend this place!

Chris Stoddard

Love this place. Wish they had more locations. Great food and a good cause. Plus the best gluten free bread I've had at a sandwich place. And an awesome drink machine.

Diana Tracy

The staff was very helpful and concerned that they handle my dietary needs appropriately. Serving gluten free sushi is always a challenge and I was most impressed with the personnel and level of service to keep me healthy and safe. Plus, they make darn good custom cocktails!

Lorien Silverleaf

Great sandwich; I love being able to order a sandwich out, even though I need to be gluten free

Jessica Boatwright

Great gluten free options! The atmosphere is clean and progressive. I will definitely come back here for drinks after work again!

Lanny Kimsey

Family owned and operated with great vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options here. One of my favs.

Gil Baba

Amazing place good workers great vibe ❤️💪 and great gluten-free options!

Scott Cameron

They put noodles in the broth, so if you’re gluten free remember to ask for soup without. Daaaang this is so good, pretty sure there’s no msg as well!
