The Mt Katahdin was delicious with a good amount of toppings. A family member was ecstatic to get a gluten free pizza crust AND vegan cheese that actually tasted great! It’s really tough to find places that can accommodate wheat & dairy free. The staff were friendly and helpfully packed extra napkins plus hand wipes for eating on the road.

Went here with my best friend after Christmas shopping. She has celiac and we both wanted tacos. This has hands down the freshest most delicious tacos we’ve ever had. Our server, who also seemed to be the bartender, was super attentive and kept our waters full without asking. We will be coming back!

John Lopez

A small, very busy and festive environment that is worth the wait. The food here was amazing. This is a safe haven for celiacs (gluten free) and almost everything on the menu is gluten free with a handful of exceptions. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and happy to answer questions.

Dustin Kniffin

The food was some of the best we have had in a while. The gluten free toast was amazing. Burger was great and cinnamon bun French toast was great! Highly recommend

Marz Kay

Love this place.

Amanda Gautreaux

Great for celiac's

Maura Hodge

Stopped in today, Christmas Eve, looking for a quick bite. I know it can stink to be working today- despite this, the girls at the counter were so bright and cheerful. They were kind and funny, and provided excellent service. They also were very knowledgeable about a gluten allergy. Besides the service, the food is excellent. So delicious and we can’t wait to come back.

Kara Vautour

Casual counter ordering with fun funky decor. Better than typical Americanized Mexican! Great vegetarian and gluten free options. Also loved unique choices like chile pineapple skewers. Love trying local places on vacation!

Jari Georgia

Excellent food — very fresh ingredients. Guacamole was superb. Person that took our order was very careful about my gluten free request.

Cory Edwards

Delightful little locals spot with fresh fish. Service was a little curt, but get food makes up for it. Got the salmon reuben and was completely blown over by it. Spectacular. Even better was the crab bisque. Spicy and warm. I need it in my belly!! Best one I had in Bar Harbor. The haddock tacos my wife got were super meh. Skip unless you need flavorless tacos. But she loved the clam chowder. Daughter liked her blackened salmon sandwich. Gluten free options everywhere including a great GF chocolate ginger cookie.

Roxy Kai

The food here is incredible! My favorite is the build your own burrito bowl. What I love about that is I can Tailor it to my specific dietary needs as I am gluten and dairy free (not by choice *sad face*) so finding places that have options for me that is still amazing food is super special.

On my birthday (August 3rd) we accidentally found El Corazan and ordered take out from them because our favorite Mexican restaurant was closed. About 2 minutes after we began stuffing our faces I said to my husband, “$@<%!!! I’m so glad __ ____ was closed! This is awesome!!” It’s now August 27th and I’m embarrassed to admit how many times we’ve ordered food from them since then. Lol! * We feel like we were cheating on our previously favorite Mexican restaurant in Portland so we have filed for divorce… We have a gluten intolerant, vegetarian kiddo, another vegetarian, and two meat eaters in our family and all of us are able to get a number of fantastic dishes. Actually, every single thing we’ve gotten has been outrageously good. They haven’t made one mistake in our orders yet - which for us is not common due to our various food requirements. Portions are large but not obscene - perfect really. Service is excellent. Food is incredible and so fresh! It’s entirely possible to order a very healthy dish as well as dishes that check all of the boxes for feeling naughty, dripping with cheeses and sauces. Couldn’t finish my meal last night and even after a night in the fridge, the fried green tomato taco (right?!?!?!) is still delicious, fresh tasting, and unique. Can’t get enough of these tacos! Go there ASAP! You won’t be disappointed. It’s rare to feel the urge to write a positive review…but they’re doing such a great job there that I couldn’t resist. And no, I do not know anyone who works there or owns the restaurant.

They were so good to me and my wife is Gluten-free and they took great care of her also!!! She never got sick!! And the food is very filling!!

Nosy Quilter

It's harder to find Mexican up here if you're from the Midwest. They've become our favorites absolute best gluten free tortillas. Large portions.

Lee Maynard

Delicious! We all inhaled our food. Great options. Everything was beautifully presented. Nice beer and cider choices. One of our party has a pretty severe celiac situation and he was so happy to get to really enjoy his lunch!

Alexander Clark

Gwen Tedder

Great! GF conveniently marked on the menu and the waitress mentioned a gluten free fryer. The slaw on the pork tacos was splendid.

Serina Risbara

We hired Bird & Co to cater our 100 person wedding and we were so impressed. From the initial inquiry to the wedding day, Emily was very responsive and willing to answer any questions we had. They were even able to accommodate my celiac guests with most of our menu options. Our guests were raving about the food, the staff were all friendly and we couldn't have been happier! Would definitely recommend.

M G

So much food! Enough for lunch and dinner. Amazing guac and chips. And most importantly, amazing gluten free tortilla for the burrito!! We wish we could have chosen more than 2 toppings (lettuce, pico etc) before being charged with online ordering, but you do get a lot of food.

Jessica Vallette

So nice to have gluten-free quick meals available in South Portland!

Molly McCown

The best tasting espresso I've had in Portland - don't sleep on this! Homemade corn tortillas and knowledge of Celiac. Cocktails are unique, staff are chill, and tacos are delicious. Thank you for the quality experience!

Chasity Cash

Came in for a crab quesadilla and a salad. So good! Had a gluten free option for one of my favorite nieces too.

Alizza Mitchell

This restaurant was highly recommended to us by someone from the area when we were visiting for the evening. We arrived and walked in with my service dog and we were told we needed to sit outside. It is 50° overcast and misty in the air. We asked if we could sit inside and the host said shook his head and said that he would prefer we were outside. We asked if it was because of the dog. He smugly smiled and nodded. We proceeded to tell him we would not be dining there, and my husband told him that was against the law. I cannot believe we were turned away with our service dog. He is a 25lbs very well behaved service dog. Go to Geddys nice and respectful. And great gluten free options! See photo of my well behaved boy!

Scott Reid

Nicole was a great waitress. She was very accommodating as my friend has celiac. I will return again.

Dawn Rosenberg

We ordered a BBQ taco and a quesadilla, and they were both delicious! Generous portion sizes, very reasonable prices. We ordered for take out but they had ample seating inside for dining in. They also sold a small selection of beer, wine, and hard cider. I have celiac so I'm on a strict gluten free diet and the food was clearly marked so I knew what was safe for me to eat.

Cristina Ustaris

Delicious, authentic Mexican food from the nicest people with gluten-free and dairy-free options. Good for a snack or a meal!

Emelia Tremblay

Margaritas is a UMaine college town classic. I love to go for their Trivia nights, get a flight with my friends, and share the chicken nachos, which are huge and incredible! For my gluten-free friends, be sure to ask for their gluten free tortilla chips. I always feel welcome by the staff, and recently met the manager who is super sweet and loved to talk about her time at UMaine, but it is clear Margs is her passion at the moment. Their seasonal margs are usually pretty good, but I always recommend getting a flight to try different flavors.

Suzi Carpenter

Delicious!! They even do gluten free!!

George DeVita

The treehouse taqueria was a wonderful treat in Ogt. We were greeted by friendly fun staff. Food was delivered quickly and was delicious. The traffic light appetizer, featured salsa, queso and guacamole. All that were fresh and delicious served with warm chips. We opted for the two birria tacos on gluten-free shells. They were crunchy, delicious and well flavored. We also had the blackened swordfish tacos which were delicious. I highly recommend you check out this spot. There isn't a ton of seating so make sure you get and plan accordingly, but you'll be glad you did.

Angela Quirion

This is probably the best margaritas in the state! Even their drink specials are freaking delicious! I ordered their veggie fajitas with corn tortillas instead of flour because I'm gluten free. The waitress took my allergy very seriously and the corn tortillas came pleasantly warmed in some tin foil to keep them from getting cold. The guac, salsa, and chips are top notch and they had some of my favorite hot sauce on hand! We also ended up taking a lot home with us and it fed us three times! The portions are huge here. If you are 21 plus feel free to sit in the lounge; It's so comfortable in there and just so chill ❤️. I love picking out songs on their little juke box machine. Yes, I was the one who requested too much Jorge Ben Jor! Date cheat code: start here with tasty food and drinks and then laugh your way over to Barnes& nobles. New favorite date night place.

Judy Ashby

I had tacos, my son had nachos. We are both gluten-free and had no issues . Food was fresh and yumm1y!

Jo H.

This is a gem of a restaurant with incredibly fresh sushi, knowledgeable staff, inventive menu. This restaurant also takes gluten intolerance seriously and has many gluten free options.

Joe Cadorette

Light on gluten-free and dairy-free options, but what they have was very good. Nice staff and overlooks some of Bangor.

Jeremy Reich

We love Regards - it's always a pleasure to have dinner there. The food is unbelievable; it's always creative, inspired, and consistently delicious. My partner is vegetarian, and I am gluten free - they address both very conscientiously (and we have more than enough options). The atmosphere is great, and the staff is welcoming and attentive. Make sure this is on your list!

Cassidy Smith

This Taco Bell is amazing! They meet all of your needs whether it may be gluten-free substitutions or just a plain old diet for your wedding day! I really appreciate how they can take my order that’s completely random And make it a dream come true. In regards to food the beef is always so tender and never over cooked which I can appreciate, the steak is very well cooked and the sauce compliments the veggies beautifully. I see fresh veggies on my plate and enough cheese to taste also. I really appreciate The workers attitude, And friendliness, and they really can meet anyone’s accommodations five stars here!

Angela Quirion

Great vegan/gluten free options! Also pretty authentic Californian style mexican with spice especially if you get their hot sauces! We were not sure if they were dog friendly so we ordered take out and they went above and beyond by taking the time to seat us, plate our takeout, AND bring dog water! This place and the food is BEYOND 5 stars! I will be back❤️

Angela Quirion

They have the best guacamole and their salsa was incredible! This waiter at the bar was able to help me find gluten and dairy free options...no vegan options, but they do have shrimps. The food is NOT spicy at all and is not like Californian style Mexican food, but the do have that Tapito. Also, their margaritas are tasty AF.

Amazing 👏 food. Vegan and Gluten-free. Very fresh and tasty. Family owned. We came back again the next day.

NufCedKid Yup

My wife has celiac and their website has many things listed as "GF," when actually, everything that is fried is cross-contaminated with breaded items, including the tortilla chips.

Donny Bacon

The food always has me saying wow out loud and it is a nice relaxing atmosphere The employees are wonderful some may not fully speak English but they do a spectacular job wonderful customer service……Ruben even went out of his way to check to see if something was ok for my girlfriend to drink being that she is gluten free above and beyond customer service wish I could give 10 stars

Erica Rudloff

We had a great supper. This restaurant has been without a GM for quite sometime. The new manager who has worked there prior, is experienced, competent and knows how to address the public in these hard situations. From what I witnessed, she really supports her staff who seem to have been struggling without a GM. A gluten free issue was resolved super fast.

Samantha Wheelock

Always a good experience especially for those.of us with food allergies. Gluten and dairy.

Claude O

Lily Cadle

Amazing atmosphere, amazing music, amazing staff! And the food? BEYOND amazing! Went there with my husband and some friends. The quality of the food was impressive. Tasted fresh, and they accommodated my gluten and dairy allergies! If you’re ever in the area, 10/10 recommend!

Bob Panunzio

Christopher Ivey
