Look I've made it a habit to come here every Sunday morning. There are so many options for vegan and gluten free. They're always friendly and there are great memories. The food is fantastic, I mean really truly you cannot go wrong with anything you order. And of course you can shop for goodies in the grocery attached to it. Definitely get an ice cream sandwich and if it's in season, get the champurrado- it's the best.

Came here because a different review stated gluten free options, however the amount I had to manipulate the menu to accomplish that and the fact that there were only three options to manipulate really felt like there was not truly options. If you have a gluten allergy or are simply committed to a gluten free diet this place would be rated as a last resort for choices. Staff was kind and had no issues with them or the restaurant itself, only the false implication that there were choices that were not present.

Veg and Go is phenomenal in every conceivable way. Their food is absolutely delicious, and their owner is just so absolutely kind, friendly, funny, and wonderful. We immediately felt welcomed and at home here from our first visit. Their Peace Burger is delicious , their Vegan GF Mozzarella sticks are magical… and I LOVE and appreciate that they’re gluten free since I am allergic to gluten. Thank you for all you do, for your fun atmosphere, and for your delicious food!

They have some gluten free dishes like the one I ordered to go. I got their Alaskan king salmon. I like salmon a lot but the way this dishes was cooked/marinated just hut different. It was slightly sweet without loosing it's distinct salmon taste slightly crispy outside and soft inside. Absolutely worth tge price and most definitely will order again. The staff were also patient and understanding with my questions and made sure to have the answers accurately. 10 out of 10 would recommend

A trip to Riverside isn't complete without a trip to Tio's Tacos. So many gluten free options available, fresh juices, and art decorates the entire area. This time we coupled it with a trip to the The Cheech. I recommend this place a hundred times over. I would say wheelchair accessability is most likely low. I couldn't imagine navigating the small, narrow bathroom or uneven cobblestone type ground on wheels without assistance. It's not impossible, just difficult.

We love this place! My go to is the two items with double chicken Tikka masala and some garlic naan with a large mango lassi. I always say I am going to save half for later, then I eat it all. My son is vegetarian and usually orders the noodles or the veggie wrap with garlic naan. He has several other options which are clearly marked in green color on the menu. I have a friend that I recommended Masala Mischief to because she is Gluten Intolerant and they were able to easily tell her which options were safe for her to eat. I am always greeted and felt welcome, often by name. We highly recommend often and we are so glad that we found this place over a year ago. We do take out and dine in equally.

This place is fire. Randomly stopped in Otw to Joshua Tree and the service was well above expectations. Everyone was super friendly and laid back, the owner is very much involved with his guests, and totally educated me that he has vegan and gluten free pizza. Had no idea. Pizza also hit the spot. Supreme no olives, because olives are horrible.

I love the fun flavors but was disappointed by the Thai tea personally. I really appreciate that they label which items contain gluten so I can stay safe 💖 almost the whole menu is gluten free, I believe only the taro and oreo drinks have gluten as of now.

Delicious!!! Amazing gluten free muffins and the latte was so good! Inside the cafe is ok not much ambience kind of drab, needs some pics on the wall and some plants /flowers was very plain, needs a freaking up! But the service was fast and friendly. The place was packed so that’s a great sign. I sat outside which was so lovely. I am usually a Starbucks girl but in that area I would choose this over Starbucks. Loved it!

Not the 1st time here but, 1st time interacting with the bar staff. They are very welcoming and knowledgeable. I have a very HIGH gluten sensitivity and they were great in pointing me in the right direction. Atmosphere is fantastic and with the ability to bring in outside food, this is one of my favorite spots to hang in a group!!

Gluten, corn, vegan, almond, dairy intolerant friends!!!! You must try the soul grain taco at this place! It comes with shredded beef delicious, but you can substitute it for vegan jackfruit style if you prefer to. The jicama taco shell gives the perfect crunch and the accompaniment of cabbage slaw, mango, cilantro and lime give it a great taste. (It not your typical slaw) Even if u are not a jicama fan like me, if u miss tacos bc of the gluten and corn thing this is a nice treat! It's not too filling on its own Soni recommend getting fries in the side to share with someone. Oh and the beverage selection is awesome! Try it! :)
