Amazing pizza spot - longtime customer here! They treat their customers great, and they do an amazing gluten-free crust that's Celiac safe if that's what you're looking for! (Just mention it at the counter or when you call).

Horrible tater tots and can’t even get a small sized gluten free pizza. Ketchup was absolutely years past rotten

Edward Hoefler

Always great food. Im.gluten free and there's a lot of great options for me

Robin Ayers

Great gluten free options with a well labeled menu. Our Waiter said everything that goes in the fryer is gluten free (fried chicken, potatos, fries, etc) Good prices too

Heather Richmond

One of my fav gluten free pizzas!

Malia Faith

Burgers with gluten free fries

Alvina Khan

Love that this spot has healthy options and includes whether or not items on the menu are gluten free and dairy free. They also have a lot meals catered towards high protein.

Steven Parsons

My fiance is gluten free and we had no idea she was in for such a treat. Great food and coffee.

Jay Trivedi

Delicious food. Their vindaloo curry is amazing. Considering any of their flavorful dish near the beach is such a delight. Their chutneys were also unique. I would say this is a very nice restaurant. Their environment is cozy and peaceful. Their quality is what you would expect to be (amazing). I like how they provide gluten free options and vegan options. I would definitely visit this place again because my tastebuds enjoyed it.

From the outside looking in it looked very elegant and nice but once inside it's a mass of chatter and some tables even yelling to just have a simple conversation. It's an open atrium, so naturally that allows flying critters to accompany your meal. You could not have a nice quiet dinner. The menu has limited gluten free options but some are available but as with any place the possibility of cross contamination is always a possibility. Our server was very polite and knowledgeable with the menu options. Food was slow to come out but tasted very good.

Daniel McKeegan

Amazing gluten free tacos and breakfast margaritas! Friendly staff and cool atmosphere!

Edward Hoefler

Luckily we went there early on a weekday, before it was too crowded. Food was awesome. My fiance ordered a Gluten Free pizza and I ordered the chicken piccata. We didn't have to wait very long. Prices were good too. Highly recommend 👌

Our group of 4 went here the other day (Sep 12 around 8:30 pm) just for drinks and had a great time! Widest selection of beers (with the largest gluten free menu we'd seen to date!). Our waiter was a gem and answered all the questions we had. Every one of his drink suggestions were a hit with us! We really loved the pumpkinhead ale*- it's a definite must try this fall season. We stayed pretty much until close to closing! Great atmosphere, and well priced drinks. We will be back!

Giorgia Canova

Nice above average! Vegan and gluten-free dishes much appreciated by those struggling with intolerances. Super Acai bowl, well done!

Efesca Opday

This poke store has an excellent assortment of poke choices. I have food allergies and the staff was very knowledgeable about what I could and could not have. The only downside is they don’t offer gluten free soy sauce.

Brad Shreve

What a Find. Four people, four different breakfasts turned out to be four delicious meals. I must eat gluten free and didn't expect there'd be much for me other than eggs. Surprise, surprise, not only did I find their massive sized gluten free pancakes delicious, my gluten eating family members all agreed. Our server Nancy was super friendly and attentative and the rest of the staff acted like we were old friends. The next time we're in the area we know where we'll go. Do yourself a favor and don't miss the Broken Yolk Cafe.

Susan Willett

Oh my gosh. When they said that this was the best Italian food in San Diego they weren’t kidding!!! It was absolutely fabulous. The portions are generous, and even with five of us we didn’t get to taste near the food I would have liked to, but it sure gives me something to look forward to, as I am determined to come back to the San Diego area for many reasons, but Enoteca Adriano is right up there at the top . Then there was our server, Ada. She was fantastic personable, knowledgeable, explained the dishes to the T!!!! You could almost taste the food from her descriptions. Her service along with that of her cohorts that brought some of the dishes to the table was impeccable. I’m sorry to say I forgot how many years she said she was working here. I believe it was at least five, but possibly many more. She is just a gem!!! Our ticket said 3 were dining but there were 5 of us. So we chose two appetizers to begin with, both of them House favorites. Enoteca Adriania was Fresh burrata wrapped with parma prosciutto, arugula, fresh fig jam, baby heirloom tomatoes, crostini. Burrata Special was Fresh burrata with tomato relish and steamed fresh butternut squash cubed and topped with frisée and fig jam-(my recollection prob not as perfect as dish was)served with crostini. 2 of us chose to indulge in a glass of Aglionica Red Wine 🍷 . My daughter really enjoyed her entree of Orecchiette Bosco which was Minced Italian sausage, creamy tomato parsley sauce, bread crumbs, (Gluten free or eggless options on pasta) Our friend Rosa and my hubby both ordered the special which was Lasagne. Fresh sheets of pasta layered with meatballs and fresh tomato 🍅 sauce topped with Burrata. It was truly divine. B. Ordered the Ravioli Rossi which was delectable tender Lobster filled ravioli, tiger shrimp, and a lobster reduction sauce. She commented that she “was in heaven”. I ordered the Gnocchi di Casa which were-the plumpest pillows of Potato dumpling, gorgonzola, spinach, topped with crushed walnuts. It was the best gnocchi I’ve ever eaten! We spoiled ourselves even more with Lattes and Cappuccinos. We ordered Cannolis and Tiramisu- and even enjoyed a Limoncello. It was an exquisite evening and experience-The food and service created the perfect ambiance. I can’t wait to return!

We stopped in here because it was nearby, but I realized they have vegan, dairy free, and gluten free options. This would be perfect for family/friends coming from out of town and ensure everyone can get something to eat. Grab bowls, take them to the beach or bay, and enjoy the weather. I’d love to see a location near the South Bay.

Jennifer Nisengard

An incredible restaurant with fine dining options in a really casual place! We had a large party that they were able to accommodate without much notice. We needed gluten free, dairy free, and seafood free options and they treated us with such care! The oysters were delicious and the cocktails were inventive and yummy! We had a great experience!

Neta Kittrell

Had the best service today! I have a gluten allergy and they went above and beyond as always. Great food! I have been there several times without getting sick!

Zoltan Foldes

Great fresh food with servings that you will not walk away hungry. My wife and I took my siblings, neice and a nephew there for dinner. After eating there once before, while staying at Campland on the Bay. They were all were quite satisfied , even my sister who eats gluten-free only. Out of the 9 not one complaint. We had tried the bowls, sandwich, two bbq pork fries which we all shared , soup and spring rolls. All were yummy and great prices! Most prices under$15 and under. I do not recall any being over $20. Also the staff had great patience ( lol some people can't make up their minds) and were quick serving the food. We all had a time to remeber with delicious food.

matt teasley

Food was good and service was great. I had the breakfast burrito it was pretty good, no complaints and it was very filling. My wife had the grilled fish tacos (they're gluten free) abs she really enjoyed them and they were very big.

El S.

Visiting from out of town, needed a gluten free pizza option for the lady friend and Mr. Moto was the answer. I am a huge pizza fan and their gluten free crust was incredible! It was the perfect amount of crispy and lost no flavor. Went simple with just pepperoni and it was so good. Also ordered some Wings and they were ok, could cook them just a little longer for a crispier outside. The pizza was the star so I definitely would suggest this place and would order again!

Mikaela Links

Fabulous lattes and super friendly baristas! They remembered us when we came back and were so nice. They also have fabulous pastries (gluten-free options too!) :)

Michelle Call

We stopped in for lunch the day before Thanksgiving and the food and service were outstanding even though they were also dealing with large takeout orders. The crepe florentine (we ordered without meat) was delicious with a lemony hollandaise. The burger, while a simple choice, was juicy and very tasty. Then we got way too many goods to take back from the bakery and a few baguettes. We’ve only sampled a few so far but top notch! Gluten Free - the macaron, carrot cake, crème brûlée, and spring basket are all Gluten Free (as of now, check when you go)!

Amber Anderson

I am not a fish person but OH MY GOSH were the tacos here SO delicious!! We had the Elotes taco, Spicy Dorado taco, Yellowfin taco, and Fish Shop Chowder. Our favorite taco was the Spicy Dorado but my son said the soup was his amazing as well! Oh and they had a gluten free carrot cake that was to die for! 100% recommend!

Nancy Chen

Super cute place and a ton of gluten free options! Smoothie bowls and gluten free bagels too.

Lauren

Great pizza! They have gluten-free options available and our personal favorite is the San Diego Veggie! The owners are great and pizza has always been on-time and always delicious!

Randomly stopped by here to pick up a couple of coffees. The lady who helped me (and my son a little later) was wonderful. We picked up a gluten free vegan blueberry muffin and gluten free cheese rolls. They were excellent. Coffee was great too.

Vance Longwill

Lovely staff and one of the best gluten free pizza’s I’ve ever had

Hanna Scar

Best gluten free pizza!

Audrey Wright

Found this place on a whim and it was a good find! The burgers and fries are delicious, they had games for my kids to play while waiting for the food. We have come back a few times since finding it! I am gluten free and they have GF buns.

Mary Shvodian

So happy to have Board & Brew in my neighborhood! Love the turkado on the gluten free wrap!

Tanya Freeman

Gluten free avocado toast and a chai latte. Super yummy!

Jason

Consistently solid. Healthy food, lots of options. Usually good service. Acai bowl is Brazilian approved 😂 Celiacs or GF folks do need to be a little careful here, but the servers tend to know what's what.

There were seven of us eating and we all had different items the flavor was good and the price was right. However if you're gluten free or have those types of allergies you may be hard-pressed to figure out what's okay to eat at this spot, because the staff is unable to advise what the ingredients are. The location is good right in the middle of Mission Beach a block from the beach so walking the boardwalk or watching the waves while shopping is all very close to this place.

Miriam Stauth

Fantastic food, but limited gluten-free choices! Also note it took 45 minutes from getting in line to receiving my food so plan accordingly!

Lauren Marie Fleming

I was super excited for GF options but then they accidentally gave me the gluten noodles, and I had a few bites before noticing. Which sucks extra because the ramen was meh, so I’m gonna be sick off subpar ramen. The chasu pork was good and egg okay, but the broth was bland. Still grateful they have GF on the menu just wish the waiter had paid attention more to the noodles, since I told them I couldn’t eat gluten and double checked things were GF so I didn’t get sick.

Hannah Candelaria

Super fresh and delicious! Tons of topping and sauce options for the poke bowls. Appreciated the clear allergen notes on the menu for gluten free options.

Bettina Settles

Was searching for vegan/ gluten-free options, and this little gem popped up. It is tucked into a corner of a small strip mall. It is very cozy inside. They do have limited availability of parking. I had the Tom Yum with tofu and the Winter Roll. Our server must have known that I like spicy food. She brought the extra hot pepper selection with the soup without being prompted.

Bobby Hampton

Becky Kunz

Great rooftop bar with views of the water. Had the tacos. Salads were the only other gluten free food options. The tacos were pretty large. Frozen alcohol drinks were very yummy.

Melissa Hulke

Best açaí ever, and the gluten free desserts were great, also. This will be our stop for Açaí bowls every time we are in Pacific Beach.

Fantastic staff, gave us the full menu rundown and helped my wife navigate gluten free requirements without issue.
