Look I've made it a habit to come here every Sunday morning. There are so many options for vegan and gluten free. They're always friendly and there are great memories. The food is fantastic, I mean really truly you cannot go wrong with anything you order. And of course you can shop for goodies in the grocery attached to it. Definitely get an ice cream sandwich and if it's in season, get the champurrado- it's the best.

Barbara was incredibly and delightfully helpful, recommending exactly what I wanted. I love a counter seat for exactly the kind of interaction I got. She, and this location in general, was great. My only disappointment is with the company's decision to 86 the gluten free English muffins.

I'm NCGS so I eat gluten free, and I've never had a reaction from eating at this location. I wish they wouldn't continually get rid of my family's menu favorites through the years, but overall, the food is good, the service is efficient, and it's usually clean and well stocked. They have gluten free food items and dessert as well!

Came here because a different review stated gluten free options, however the amount I had to manipulate the menu to accomplish that and the fact that there were only three options to manipulate really felt like there was not truly options. If you have a gluten allergy or are simply committed to a gluten free diet this place would be rated as a last resort for choices. Staff was kind and had no issues with them or the restaurant itself, only the false implication that there were choices that were not present.

Marvin has mastered the craft of flavor and authenticity. This was my kids first experience with "real" Ramen and they lost their minds! Our meals were master crafted with love and it shows! Our experience was so wonderful my son demanded that this he his birthday dinner! Every bite was filled with fresh ingredients, flavors and textures. We each got something a little different, and were subsequently jealous of eachothers choices! I am gluten and dairy free. I was given so many options! It's so refreshing to get food from a restaurant that understands and exceeds my needs. I am so grateful! Hats off you you Saku! Forever loyal customers for life!

I had the gluten free option and well let's just say don't order the one patty unless you wanna still feel hungry. Lettus wrap was okay, I think double patty would have been more fulfilling. The fries with the house sauce was good. Service was nice they give out suggestions. Very lively area, bathrooms are clean and there is modern music. This is in the food lab so you will see many options next to this one.

They have some gluten free dishes like the one I ordered to go. I got their Alaskan king salmon. I like salmon a lot but the way this dishes was cooked/marinated just hut different. It was slightly sweet without loosing it's distinct salmon taste slightly crispy outside and soft inside. Absolutely worth tge price and most definitely will order again. The staff were also patient and understanding with my questions and made sure to have the answers accurately. 10 out of 10 would recommend

Great coffee house. I always get the iced mocha, and it's great. Their oatmeal seems steeply priced but it's big and hearty compared to the little cup you tend to get at coffee shops. They also have a vegan banana nut muffin amidst their bakery, and a gluten free flavor as well. They aren't always the biggest fans of filling my reusable water bottle which is a bummer (they have a jug of water out for customers but my bottle would take half of it), but they will do it if asked. Check it out!

Pretty good pizza, good selection and prices! You can order by the slice and they have really good lunch deals for spaghetti and lasagna. The salads are so good too if you're gluten-free, never been disappointed. My favorite is their pineapple pizza, I get it every time!! Good ice cream! I had black cherry today. Quick, kind service. I feel like there's always something new on the menu.

A trip to Riverside isn't complete without a trip to Tio's Tacos. So many gluten free options available, fresh juices, and art decorates the entire area. This time we coupled it with a trip to the The Cheech. I recommend this place a hundred times over. I would say wheelchair accessability is most likely low. I couldn't imagine navigating the small, narrow bathroom or uneven cobblestone type ground on wheels without assistance. It's not impossible, just difficult.

We love this place! My go to is the two items with double chicken Tikka masala and some garlic naan with a large mango lassi. I always say I am going to save half for later, then I eat it all. My son is vegetarian and usually orders the noodles or the veggie wrap with garlic naan. He has several other options which are clearly marked in green color on the menu. I have a friend that I recommended Masala Mischief to because she is Gluten Intolerant and they were able to easily tell her which options were safe for her to eat. I am always greeted and felt welcome, often by name. We highly recommend often and we are so glad that we found this place over a year ago. We do take out and dine in equally.

The food was "ok" for the price, excluding the dessert. Omg! The FLAN!!! Incredible!!! It was a wonderful experience either way, because Omar made our night special by being considerate, kind, and accommodating. I want to be upfront and say that I am really perticular about my meals and have celiacs disease, so it does limit me on what I can eat. Either way, we felt that the steak was undercooked (I personally always order rare steak, so it's odd for me to call steak overcooked) and would've been better if it was seared more... my husband actually got sick from it. The sauce in the shrimp pasta was okay, but the shrimp in the pasta was DELIGHTFUL!! Thanks for a good experience, Omar. The restaurant is lucky to have someone like you representing them.

My first time eating here and I really enjoyed what I had! I made the mistake of not making a reservation - do yourself a favor and make a reservation if you plan to dine on a weekend evening. We were lucky to score a seat outside which wasn't ideal but it wasn't bad at all. It was a warm evening with perfect weather and we had a view of the Mission Inn across the street so it gave us a dining experience like eating at a restaurant in Italy or another country. I was concerned that an inconsiderate smoker would light up by us while we were eating but no one was rude like that, which made me a happy camper. Our server was knowledgeable and helpful but service was a little snow on the patio. We weren't in a rush do that didn't bother us much. I ordered the calamari which was absolutely delicious and gluten free (corn starch is used). The sauce pairings were amazing and it was a very large portion - I would highly recommend! For dinner I chose a salad which was super yummy. The hubby had the Caesar salad and sauteed spinach and was very happy with his selection as well. We can't wait to go back and try some of the entrees. We heard several people commenting on how amazing the food was as they were leaving, so we'll definitely be back! By the way, check their website because they offer live music a couple times a week. Definitely give this place a try!

Delicious!!! Amazing gluten free muffins and the latte was so good! Inside the cafe is ok not much ambience kind of drab, needs some pics on the wall and some plants /flowers was very plain, needs a freaking up! But the service was fast and friendly. The place was packed so that’s a great sign. I sat outside which was so lovely. I am usually a Starbucks girl but in that area I would choose this over Starbucks. Loved it!

Gluten, corn, vegan, almond, dairy intolerant friends!!!! You must try the soul grain taco at this place! It comes with shredded beef delicious, but you can substitute it for vegan jackfruit style if you prefer to. The jicama taco shell gives the perfect crunch and the accompaniment of cabbage slaw, mango, cilantro and lime give it a great taste. (It not your typical slaw) Even if u are not a jicama fan like me, if u miss tacos bc of the gluten and corn thing this is a nice treat! It's not too filling on its own Soni recommend getting fries in the side to share with someone. Oh and the beverage selection is awesome! Try it! :)
