The food is expensive, they do have bottomless fries, chips with your meal. Very noisy, busy, people bring kids and families. The wait staff are nice and helpful. The dinning areas need upgrades. The place is looking a bit worn down. I am gluten free, they make separate fries and have gluten free buns but we pay extra. I got the turkey burger, very good, their signature sauce is a bit spicy but good. They give plenty of dipping sauces. They clean the tables pretty well.

One of my favorite places for years and was very happy to discover they have gluten free options after I found out I would need to eat GF. Knowledgeable and friendly staff and honestly the best falafel I think I may have ever had, it’s never dry and always flavorful. The outdoor seating is also quite lovely on a nice sunny day.

Great tasting subs especially #26 and #43 sandwiches. Plus, they offer gluten free bread.

I hadn’t been to Islands in years, so it was time to come back. I knew this location is particularly busy on weekends, so I came during the week, and there was no wait. Our server, Aaron, was the highlight of our visit. He was very friendly. I ordered the Hula Burger ($17.99) and substituted the Swiss cheese for cheddar. All my friends had a side of fries with their meals, and I’m not sure what was wrong with mine, but they were incredibly salty. I even had the others try them to make sure I wasn’t overthinking it before I said something. They all agreed they tasted off and didn’t match the flavor of theirs. I told Aaron, and they made me a fresh set of fries, which were 1000% better. I don’t often drink alcohol, but it seems like a lot of people come here for the cocktails. They looked super cute! I’m sure they can make a mocktail if you ask. *all burgers you can choose a white or wheat bun *you can upgrade any burger to a gluten bun

Gluten free options!

The gluten-free bread is amazing! I have not had a reaction to the cross contamination. The Northridge location really tries to be careful. I always let them know i am very sensitive. It is expensive at an extra $3.25.

Sharkeys always delivers. Fresh and healthy choices available, but also indulgent comfort food too. Being gluten free and health minded I appreciate having this as a regular go-to, always great!

We used to live about 5 minutes away from this spot in Van Nuys and had no idea it existed before we moved up the Santa Clarita Valley. Had we known it was here...well, I still think we would have moved, but we would have been slightly more sad about it. What a great place in an unexpected part of town! We're vegetarians and the menu, especially for a gastropub as VERY vegetarian friendly complete with three types of vegan sausages, a veggie burger and vegan BBQ! Not to mention the many options of beer and cocktails to choose from, all in a really nice atmosphere that was crowded on the Thursday night we visited...plus family friendly! I had a Vegan Smoked Apple Sage sandwich with onions and mustard. Really really good...plus a rum and coke style of drink (though i forgot what it was called and it doesn't seem to be listed on their website menu...it was highlighted as one of their signature drinks on the menu in house.) I'm usually a whiskey or bourbon guy, so this was a nice and sweet treat. My wife enjoyed her fish sandwich which she had served on lettuce instead of bread for her gluten free preference. The fries she got were great, and the onion rings I got were relaly great. Battered more like fish and chips batter than the typical breading you get around those. If we lived closer we'd head back frequently This was all an all around great experience for us.
