We had a party of 13 people 3 of them children age ranging 2 years to only a few months. Our server Shannon was a rock star. Very friendly, very helpful when it came to a couple friend’s dietary needs, and all around great service. The food was also excellent. My wife has Celiacs diease and their gluten free crust combined with the kitchen staffs attention to not cross contaminating was a big plus for us. We will definitely be returning!

I have celiacs disease and Jamie did a great job in helping me feel safe when having my gluten free pizza. Pizza was excellent! He paid attention to the details. Much appreciated and we will be back.

Portions here are very good and food was delicious. I got gluten free pancakes and was impressed they tasted and looked pretty normal. The stand alone tables are a little crowded but our waiter was great and we had a good experience!

Wonderful experience! My husband and I used to frequently the champaign location often before they closed so I was very excited to try the Bloomington location and it did not disappoint! We had two small issues. One with some dirty Silverware and one with undercooked salmon and the wait was AMAZING! He was quick to fix the issue and very kind. The vegetable banana curry was amazing and my husband's bacon and egg burger looked delicious! They had quite a few gluten free options so that was also a plus! 10/10 recommended, we will definitely be coming back.

Blono pizza Co. is a great spot for food, drinks, and entertainment! The atmosphere is lively, with fun activities such as golf and mini bowling which can make for a great, competitive way to spend the night out with friends. Their smoked wings are a must-try, and the gluten free pizza is packed with flavor. A huge shoutout to Silvana the bartender—she’s amazing! Friendly, attentive, and always making sure everyone has a great time. She truly enhances the experience here.

This is now one of my favorite restaurants in the world. We wandered in to Medici on a cold Friday at lunchtime in late November. The consistently good music was an instant comfort. Everything we ordered was excellent and cooked to perfection. I highly recommend the gluten-free pizza. It comes in medium and is plenty for 2-4 people. The cheese, toppings, and crust were gorgeous. The reuben, truffle fries, and pretzel sticks were terrific. The drinks, though. Don't pass on the frozen lemonade or the tea! I can't wait to go back.

I’m always happen when restaurants have vegan options. And they even have vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free prominent on their digital menu inside. It was nice to see so many vegan options. I ordered take out, the food was mostly good. I’m not a fan of their style of fries with the extra coating. Also, it would have been nice to see ketchup packets available. (I may have missed them which is why I had to ask for them.) I still recommend this place for anyone who needs vegan food.

Best meal I’ve had out in a long time. I had the cornmeal pancakes and they are probably the most unique and complex meal I’ve eaten locally. It was like something made on Top Chef that would make all of the judges go nuts. Sweet and savory for the win with pulled pork, house blackberry jam, almonds, walnuts, cinnamon butter, chipotle maple syrup & green onions. The blackberry jam wasn’t super sweet and added the perfect amount of acidity to tie it all together. Lastly a bit of spiciness was the chef’s kiss for me. I got them because they are gluten free and the whole time I ate them I didn’t miss regular pancakes at all. These were actually better. Service was great and the place was packed but they were moving people in and out no problem. Only complaint was that there were so many people packed into such a small space that it was almost too loud to have a conversation. I think everyone was yelling over each other and there were a couple of times I felt nauseous at how loud it was. That is a me problem, though. My sensitivity to noise is probably not the norm. The crowd was just a testament to how great the food is here.

My first experience with this wonderful shop today - - warning, the flavors can be addicting! As I savored the Blue Bowl, I believe, I found myself wondering how to get to Normal and still manage work/travel requirements in Central IL. The bowl was so balanced in flavors and refreshing with fresh, sweet strawberries and acai. Amber is a delight, store manager, and very knowledgeable and engaged in growing her knowledge of nutrition and proper management of food prep necessary in addressing allergy concerns. I have gluten and soy sensitivities and I know I was in the best of hands through Amber's expertise and the menu, as constructed. Everyone in the area should look forward to the store's planned food truck, rolling sometime in March 2025! Thank you, Amber, for my being able to enjoy, such a delight, worry-free.

Amazing Gluten Free pizza! They had a lot of topping options and you even get to pick rice or potato for the crust! The staff were incredible and very polite. Absolutely loved my experience with Firehouse.

We were passing through Bloomington and decided to check out jack’s and enjoyed our meal. We ordered the hummus plate which was flavorful, had great fresh veggies and the pita was warm and soft. We also ordered the pomegranate & goat cheese salad which was tangy but a bit over dressed (raisins and walnuts and pomegranate and beets). The chicken and lamb skewers were our final dish. Both were good. The meat could have used more seasoning/sauce but the veggies were great. The chicken was very moist. The lamb a bit over cooked. The price for the hummus and salad was a bit high but the quality overall was good. (Menu is clearly labeled gluten free)

Another review said this place will ruin noodles and co for you and they're right. I ordered gluten free Mac and cheese. They were out of the noodles, and without asking used spaghetti rice noodles meant for the Japanese pan noodles. When I tried it the noodles weren't even cooked properly, they disintegrated in my mouth like they had been cooked for 20 minutes. You can look at my past reviews. I do not complain like this, but dude, just cancel my order instead of making me dog food. I'm so actually insulted.
