Good food and service. Food was over-salted. Atmosphere a bit crowded with so many tables but we were happy to get in and did enjoy our meal. Gluten friendly!

My two friends who are regulars here took me in tonight. I’ve never had Indian food and told the waitress as much, and she recommended the perfect meal for me based on what I told her I liked. I loved the food here and was so happy to see the large variety of gluten free menu items. The friendly and prompt service and atmosphere was absolutely amazing here. It smells amazing and everything felt SO clean. They do an amazing job at everything they do at spice room!!

Great diner that was able to satisfy my hangry gf. The server was very knowledgeable on Celiac's disease, and able to point out what was gluten free on the menu for my girlfriend. I got the French dip w/ fries. It was a classic diner French dip. My girlfriend got a BLT on a gluten free bun. She said it was tasty. They have an IPA of the day for each day.

Have to say went thinking it would be great to hang out and eat some pizza. Since we are gluten free there is a limited but good option. Restaurant was cold and unwelcoming. Decided to get food to go and eat in the car.

One of the Congress Park staples! I love getting to take a walk from my house on any given morning with my dogs and being able to walk up to the window with them to place an order. Everything here is delicious (the almond croissant and the Shannon breakfast sandwich are my favorites). I also love getting one of the rotating agua fresca flavors. Today’s was dairy free horchata and it was amazing!! I also recently got diagnosed with celiac so I greatly appreciate the gluten-free pastry options as well as the ability to get a sandwich on gluten-free bread. Staff is always so kind as well :) Will keep coming back again and again.

If you love sandwiches, even if you don't think Mary Jane-related humor is funny, you owe this chain a visit. Definitely the best sandwiches I've ever had anywhere. In fact, things here are so good, I've tried a pizza sub served hot as a salad (the friend in question was gluten free and feeling feisty), and even that was great - I really don't think you can go wrong here!
