I recently visited Truefood, and I have to say, it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The ambiance is warm and inviting, perfect for a casual meal or a special occasion. The staff were friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. The food was absolutely delicious! Every dish we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. I was particularly impressed by the variety of options, catering to both health-conscious eaters and those with specific dietary needs. Whether you're vegan, gluten-free, or just looking for something light and tasty, Truefood has something for everyone. Overall, Truefood is a top-notch restaurant that I highly recommend. If you're looking for healthy, delicious, and beautifully prepared food, this is the place to be! I'll definitely be back soon

I am so excited to have found this place! My youngest daughter is diagnosed Celiac Disease and so cannot have even the slightest bit of cross contamination in her food or she'll be sick. On Christmas Eve I called to see if they had a dedicated gluten free fryer (my girl loves fries!). I was told no but the man, Jason, who turned out to be the GM, encouraged us to go anyway because they have such an extensive gluten free menu. I'm glad we gave it a try! When I arrived Jason told me he decided to make a gluten free dedicated fryer in his kitchen and had already started it up to be ready for my daughter's fries! On top of that, the staff were all lovely and the food was *amazing*! Jason, if you see this, thank you again! It's rough for a 13 yr old with Celiac Disease; your kindness made a difference! We will be back!!

Delicious! Such great flavors and combinations. Gluten free, dairy free, allergy free. Our family can eat here!

Rachel Cobbs

The sickest out celiac family has ever been. Has come from this place. We got the chicken enchiladas and the gf mac and cheese. I even confirmed the noodles were boiled in their own water, clearly they were not when we discovered another noodle from another dish with the food.

This restaurant had been on my list for a while, and I’m glad I finally visited with friends. It’s always packed when I walk by, and now I see why. The hostess and staff, including Partner, who was kind, funny, and brought our wine, made us feel welcome. Our server, Crystal, provided excellent service with helpful recommendations that suited my picky eating. The menu included a few great options for my gluten-free and vegan friends, and the food met all our expectations. The desserts, especially the crème brûlée and pistachio brownie, were outstanding. I look forward to returning to try more seasonal offerings. Thank you, Silver, for a wonderful dining experience!

I recently visited a Korean casual restaurant at Montgomery Mall , and I was beyond impressed! As someone who appreciates gluten-free options, I was thrilled to find that their entire menu caters to this need without compromising on flavor. From the moment I walked by the service was exceptional. The entire team went above and beyond to ensure my first visit was memorable. They were attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely enthusiastic about sharing their recommendations. The food? Simply outstanding. Every bite was bursting with authentic flavors, It’s clear they take pride in every dish they serve. I’m so glad I discovered this gem, and I can’t wait to return. Highly recommend to anyone looking for delicious gluten-free Korean cuisine with top-notch service! I had an amazing first visit to this gluten-free Korean casual restaurant! The food was flavorful and fresh, and the entire team provided exceptional service. Highly recommend!

The restaurant location is a little obscure and a bit hard to find. Once we arrived, we were surprised by the diner like decor of the restaurant and how empty it was. Super super impressed with their ability to accommodate gluten-free options! We ordered appetizers and entrees - overall, the food was delicious, very well prepared, & good size portions. The kitchen turned around the food orders quickly. The service was definitely lacking. Our server was a bit nutty, had an attitude, and had to be reminded of segments of our order. Don't appreciate feeling like we are inconveniencing him for having a 7pm reservation. If that was later than he wanted to stay, then they should stop taking reservations beyond 6 pm. I don't think our expectations were high for service - just looking for our server to be nice. Eye rolling when taking our order is not professional nor respectful. While the food was great, I'm not sure we will return...too many good restaurants in the area that care about customer service.

My wife and I were in town on a short business trip and decided to try Gregorio’s. The entire experience was stellar, my wife is on a gluten free diet and their menu has dozens of options. The food was fantastic, big shout out to Melo for his hospitality as well as giving me the tiramisu and cheesecake since I couldn’t make up my mind. Highly recommend!

I have been here three times because they have gluten free brownies and now I am pretty sure this is the most overhyped bakery in this area. 1. the staff are totally untrained in even basic human courtesy. They act as if they are giving free food to the customers. 2. The brownie size, appearance and taste are inconsistent. Once we were given a broken brownie that was half the thickness of a decent one on the shelf. 5$ for that is beyond ridiculous. Overall, would never recommend this place and actively discourage others from going there.

Bern

We’ve been going to Mon Ami Gabi for a few years. The food and service is always great. Everyone is attentive and kind. But lately, we’ve had the pleasure of meeting Braulio and he is the best!!! He remembers us from previous visits, he always greets us with a big smile, and he’s always happy and friendly. He even remembered my gluten allergy. He is wonderful and always makes our visit so much better!!! Thank you for everything!! We’ll see you again soon!!

if you are gluten and dairy free, this is an excellent pizza. they use a special df cheese that you can't get where I'm from I'm the Midwest. closest to real cheese ive ever tasted.

Caitlin Connolly

I absolutely loved their house salad and vodka sauce but I ordered gluten free pasta due to a medical issue, and found multiple pieces of regular pasta in my gluten free order. Unfortunately, as a result I was sick afterwards which was not the experience I had hoped for.

David Fielding

Pizza places may be in abundance anywhere you go, but many times you just have to have Ledo pizza. The wonderful crust in a square pizza, always overflowing with toppings. I always eat the corners first, then the edges its so tasty. The gluten free crust is the best anywhere and they also have cauliflower version. The definition of a family restaurant. Such a great patron of the community and a diverse staff of friendly faces.

C Lynn

Splurge - worth it. Have ordered through Postmates for self and work meeting. Always a big hit. Love the options for gluten free bun or place on mixed greens.

Oge Marques

Lasagna and chicken cardinale (with gluten-free penne) were amazing! Great selection of beers on tap. Highly recommended!

Jaclyn Martinez

Has an entire gluten free menu. Finally had sushi after many years with celiac. Food was delicious and staff was super friendly and knowledgeable about menu and gluten. Will definitely be going back!!

Deborah Altman

Menu is well marked with GF and other allergens. wait staff is helpful in how to alter a menu item to accommodate GF

Gioia Albi

Excellent food, ambiance, senders, and drinks. Great place for a date. Make reservations. Gluten free options are to die for... I'll be back.

Kathy Kendall

Wonderful Italian vibe with delicious pizza. I had excellent gluten free. My son had regular gluten full pizza. The arugula salad was good bt the dressing was a little tangy for my taste.

Julie

I tried their birria quesadillas made with corn shells. The meat had great flavor. The birria broth had a touch too much cinnamon for my taste, but it was still good. They were very accommodating with my gluten allergy. The waiter was able to tell me what was gluten-free and what I should avoid. I really appreciate it when the wait staff can answer my questions regarding allergens. It was a busy night. All the tables inside were full. The hostess opened the enclosed patio (with heaters), so I didn't have to wait, which I was totally fine with. Inside was very loud with people talking over the music and other people, so I was grateful to sit on the patio and enjoy my dinner.

Julie

This is my go-to mexican restaurant. Their food is always fresh and delicious. I have a gluten allergy, and they do their best to accommodate. I normally order the burrito dorados with corn shells instead of flour tortillas. I tend to go in the off hours either between lunch and dinner or after dinner rush so it's normally quiet. They also have outside seating, which is a nice option.

Ashley

Such a cute little place, service was great ! I have celiac and they were great at accommodating to gluten free restrictions ! :)

Stephanie Lawton

I love OPH. They have delicious gluten-free pancakes and waffles and tons of great options for normal eaters. I used to adore their crepes when I was a normal eater.

Dave

Great Chinese food, with a wide variety of vegetarian and gluten free options. The service was great and our server was helpful with making recommendations base on our groups dietary restrictions.

Elizabeth Challenor-Reese

Very limited menu of steak or Portobello mushrooms. If you don't eat steak there are no other protein options. The mushroom was good. The fries and mushrooms are gluten free.

It was a great find! I have a gluten allergy, so I'm always cautious of where and what I order. I'm glad I took a chance on Caddies. The staff is always super friendly. I order the bone-in wings, and they are the best I've had since moving here. I've tried the buffalo wings, and they were not too spicy, which I enjoyed. I've also tried their bbq wings, which are my favorite. I definitely will be back.

Jackson Longan

The cheesecake factory is always a great place to go eat. They have a huge menu with all kinds of options, including low-calorie and gluten-free the turkey avocado sandwich that I had this time was delicious with the side salad. The service was great. The atmosphere was enjoyable, and it was conveniently located inside the mall.

Heidi Hill

They took my gluten allergy super seriously, noted it, changed their gloves without needing me to ask and even refunded the elote I ordered and let me me know there was cross contamination before they gave it to me. Also the food is delicious.

Michael

I went here on a Saturday right before rush hour seemed to hit. It was not crowded until much later into our meal. I found the seats comfortable and staff friendly and attentive. Beer: This has a much greater range of options that anyplace that isn't a beer specialty restaurant. They also have seasonal and specials (being October there was some pumpkin flavors, gross). They serve in several sizes the largest being 25oz. Which lasted me an entire meal and for only $7.50 I felt I got my moneys worth out of it compared to a cocktail. I recommend knowing what you like or asking for a sample tasting before getting a giant beer. For price and variety of flavors and sizes this was excellent. Food: You'll find the classic American style of options but also some extra options you wouldn't expect. I ended up with a Mac N cheese with chicken and bacon mixed in. This was excellent, and they have a separate gluten free menu. However it should be noted that the menu is "gluten sensitive" and may not be for people with Celiac's. I would inform the server of your allergy to double check they prepare it safely. Serve went very well and I know not everyone will have the same experience. But hopefully the resturant will make amends for your issue. For the few times I've been I found this to be a pleasant experience and a price point to match.

Henkster Tucson

Walked in, ordered and food was ready in 10 minutes. They offer Gluten Free choices, a big plus! The Pho soup was great! Definitely recommend.

Jody Ranck

Excellent poke. Particularly like the crunchy toppings options. They don't have marinated sushi that is gluten-free as the one negative.

Lisa Richard

love having this spot close by for a breakfast stop. Where else can you pop in and expect organic milk lattes, organic eggs and incredible breads made from unbrominated flours? Where their service and skill truly shined was the catering for our baby shower. We eat a diet low on additives and preservatives and wanted the event catering to be full of healthy and delicious foods. Le Pain Quotidien really delivered on this. The tartines were delicious and we were able to take care of a variety of dietary needs for our guests. The gluten free, and vegetarian options let us serve everyone. The veggie tray was a stand out as the dips were so good. Plus the beautiful wooden display trays were a boost to any decor. It was all so healthy that I did not expect positive reviews from guests, yet a number of people contacted me after the party to ask where the catering was from. The ordering process was simple and they were really helpful making suggestions, answering questions and even making a number of changes along the way. The day of the party delivery was seamless and exactly on time. The service was excellent.

Laurie Miller

Food is back up to the level it used to be at this location. Had the steak fajitas, and they came out of the kitchen as ordered. A member of our party was able to modify a bowl so that it was gluten and dairy free - a plus.

Ina Griffin

This place is so amazing!!!! The seared scallop salad was gluten free! The BEST!!!
