Quinoa chickpea burger on gluten free bread is amazing. Slaw is fantastic!

After the new ownership had taken over, I’ve had nothing but allergic reactions to meals that should be gluten free. I found the service to be below expectation, when I’ve had nothing but years of safe and great gluten free meals here. Also after saying nothing would change by the new ownership, my gluten free options have dwindled down to two. Along with the safety of the meals being gluten free has now gone out the window. ** Update, the new menus no longer have gluten free marked on items like they were in the past. Another restaurant bits the dust for celiacs in Toledo.

So tasty, and they accommodated me at a busy time when there was typically a wait. They were extremely attentive to my vegan/gluten free diet, and the ambiance was great.

I ordered ordered a salad without croutons for gluten allergy and was surprised there croutons on the bottom....like the put them on and then pulled off what they could and dumped it in another bowl 😪 salad tasted great but not a safe place to eat for food issues.

My family had a brunch on Sunday for about 90 people the day after my daughter’s wedding. It was a blast! The manager, Casey, was professional and helpful with setting up the details for the event. He is passionate about Packo’s and Downtown Toledo which really showed on Sunday. We had the whole restaurant to ourselves. We had two buffet lines that never lacked any food. Casey and Jessica went above and beyond to make sure everyone was satisfied with their food and how it was set up. The food of course was delicious as it always is when we eat at Packo’s. Casey was especially helpful making sure we had gluten free items for some of our guests. Even offering gluten free hot dog buns to go with gluten free hot dogs. Casey was also able to reserve the parking lot across the street for us at no charge. Our theme for the weekend was to have everything downtown and Packo’s at the Park was the perfect choice! Having the whole restaurant to ourselves made the day even more special. Great food and a fun atmosphere for a fantastic celebration! Our family and friends loved the party and could not say enough about how tasty the food was. The out of towners who had never been to a Packo’s before were highly impressed. If you are having a smaller celebration, the party room is an excellent choice too. Most of our guests ended up in the separate room or in the wonderful bar area. Thank you!

I absolutely loved the sugar free vanilla latte from here. I drank all but one sip (only because I didn't have time to finish it before an appointment.) I also had their avocado toast, which I've never had and always thought some type of way about it. I really liked it. I ordered it on the gluten free toast. Honestly, it was way better than I thought! I think I tasted a little garlic salt and definitely red pepper flakes. (It's not spicy though.) Just be mindful that the parking in front is metered, and you'll want to pay to avoid a ticket. I used 2 quarters and that got me 30 mins. of parking. The girl at the register did say there was free parking a little further down. I was hoping for my GF options like the website had. They do have a vegan cookie, I believe. I would highly recommend this coffee shop!

We made it to the 7pm show and it lasted about an hour and a half. The service was good! And they have gluten free buns.

Toledo is my hometown but I've lived in NYC for the last 6.5 years. We all know how NYC is known for its pizza! The cheese bread was amazing, and my husband said his gluten free pizza was probably the best GF pizza he's ever had! That says a lot! The staff is always so sweet and prompt when picking up which makes everything that much better. Excellent service, excellent team, and excellent pizza. Keep it Up Homeslice. Will continue to order whenever we visit from NYC.

I'd heard about the Same Café from a friend, so we came all the way out for lunch today. The Cafe, aside from being located within the most beautiful library, was lovely in its own right. Bright, clean & dignified, simple tables & chairs, artwork on the walls, elegant lighting hangs from the ceiling, planter boxes full of green plants instead of a rope showing where the line forms... The food is simple yet Classy and delicious, with healthier alternatives like gluten free or vegetarian alternatives. Basically there's 2 kinds of pizza, 2 types of salad, and 2 types of soup. Diners can choose one or both of any or all. And one pays a minimum of $2 for each item selected, but can pay full price or more if one is able. In lieu of cash, one can roll up one's sleeves and pitch in around the cafe washing dishes, wiping tables or sweeping floors. Altogether a wonderful place and a marvelous dining experience.

Best Chicago style in town, and gluten free that actually tastes like pizza! Outstanding wings with homemade sauces

I went for lunch and this was a hopping place! A nice crowd for noon. The food was amazing. I got an amazing burger. The waitress knew the gluten free items on the menu which was so helpful to me. They even had Friends on at the bar, which was awesome to watch while I waited for my friend.

Waitress was amazing but food was honestly terrible. Got the chicken fettuccine with gluten free noodles and friends got the regular fettuccine and it was gross. Best part of the meal was the dry chicken. Sauce tasted like soap and all of left feeling sick to our stomachs. Edit: Within an hour 3/4 of us who dined there were sick and threw up the dinner

The restaurant might be small but the food is so full of flavor!! Will go back.. also they have vegan and gluten free options…

Bura Vladstone

OMG!!! The best sub place ever! It's always hard to find food I can order in for a night (Allergic to gluten and dairy and sensitive to meat) and the Vegan meatball is so incredibly good! I haven't tried the other Vegan options yet as I'm to currently obsessed with the meatball one. I always get a gluten free chocolate chip cookie with it to. If I get the large It's enough for two meals and fills me up! Delicious and oh-so-worth the price. My partner also says this place is absolutely incredible! Absolutely love Dave's and highly recommend!!

The atmosphere was relaxed. The service was exceptional and all three courses were delicious. They also have gluten free options and are serious about maintaining its purity. Our family ate there Thanksgiving day and everything was perfect.
