This place exceeded expectations. Excellent food, drinks and service. We started with raw clams and spicy margaritas and then had two pasta dishes for entrees. My partner is gluten free and they offer gluten free pasta which was great! Everything tasted and was presented beautifully. Serving sizes were very generous - I took at least half my entree home! Our server was friendly, professional and quick. We will be back!

We visited from TN and we can't wait to come back and eat here again. The food is fresh and healthy. So many gluten free options too since my husband has celiac and I am gluten intolerant. The staff are so nice and willing answer any questions you have. Definitely a 10 out of 10 ☺️

Excellent authentic Mediterranean food! Large selection of food items and the menu clearly states all allergen options with a logo for the allergens so it was very easy to read for some of our gluten intolerant guests. Our party thought the cold and hot appetizers tasted better than the entrees, they were delicious. I had an issue with my main entree and the waitstaff were quick to fix it and the kitchen was able to re-make my plate immediately they were very kind.

We had Damian as our server, and he was so much fun! They were pretty busy, and I only noticed 2 people taking care of all the tables. Damian, let us give our whole order. He didn't have his notepad as he was only planning on our drink orders. However, he memorized our order, and the order came out exactly as it was given. It wasn't the easiest order, either. My husband and I both got crepes, with mine being a gluten-free crepe. The food and service were great. It's too bad we don't live closer, because this would be a new favorite.

Visiting in town and decided to stop in while shopping. The pizza is PHENOMENAL. I have no other words for it. The crust was thin and crisp and the food came out very quickly. My family members have a gluten allergy and they were able to accommodate that, and it still tasted amazing. Wish we had this place closer to Jacksonville!

Food was ok. Not what i hoped for. The menu sounds delish. I read online that they had Gluten free options. Essentially it is there regular food but without bun or tortilla. My server was Medicore she was here to to the job and nothing more, but maybe it was an off day. We all have those. Atmosphere was great. Love music outside. I did sit inside but they have all the doors open so you still get the outside vibe.

We were very pleased with this little cozy cafe located at St Armond in Sarasota. The manager and our server were extremely helpful and friendly. We had a couple of food allergies to navigate and they took great care of us! The service was very quick and our food was delicious. The portions were much larger than we expected. Highly recommend this place for breakfast AND lunch. It was nice that they have gluten free bread available.

Absolutely amazing! I am gluten free (celiac disease) and they have an entire menu that you can ask for with allergens marked on it. I would recommend the sangria, 1960 salad (best salad I’ve ever had in my life!), and the shredded beef dish. The service was great even thought they were super busy. We had Jack.
