So delicious! I have a burger on a GF bun and fries from their dedicated fryer. The server was gluten free herself and was SO helpful. I can’t wait to go back!

This has been a go-to spot recently. Easy take out but also nice to eat in. Great menu, everything I’ve had so far has been great. They also are really good with gluten-free, especially for my friend who has celiac disease and needs to take extra precautions.

I am gluten-free and the lady working there was so sweet and extremely accommodating. She even got gluten-free injera from Dora bet, which is another delicious restaurant a block away, so I can have a wrap. I got the veggie injera wrap and I loved it. Great experience

I'm not sure they've ever gotten my order fully right. They pay no attention to "gluten free bun" and half the time give me a bun that will make me sick. They skip ingredients -- don't bother adding avocado or bacon or whatever, you get what you get. Wrong shake flavors, wrong fries dips, and they never send ketchup or utensils when you ask through the app. If you aren't picking up yourself to check and guarantee your order is right, don't bother. I'm giving up.

Great for a drive through experience. Sadly, COVID has ruined my favorite sit-in coffee shop site. No eat in options (although you can totally eat outdoors they have tables outside). Its such a lovely shop i will miss visiting this location to sip tea and read a book. I hope restrictions lift soon The food is good though! The people are great and super helpful. They have vegan and gluten free options.

One of Philly’s best middle eastern spots (Lebanese specifically). I get the gluten free vegetarian platter cause it comes with all my favorites. The tabbouleh is my favorite in the tristate area, hummus and baba ganoush are fantastic as well and freshly made pita is a real plus. Generous portions, fresh ingredients and the service is always 11/10. Today’s wait time was ~25minutes, but in my opinion, it was totally worth it!

Food was Great. Our waitress was Emma, she was great. Honestly I came there for the Breakfast Burritos but to my surprise they only self those during Brunch. I thought this place was a Mexican food Restaurant. But it's medditeranian. So ordered the Gluten free chicken with a side of rice. It was very delicious. I can't complain at all. Also, mimosas are served all day which is a major plus.

Heaven. We started with the charcuterie board and I must say the pumpkin seeds were fabulous and the gluten free bread was wonderful. For entrees we had the Filet mignon which was divine and the buttermilk squash gnocchi was fantastic.
