I have had Celiac disease for 20 years, since before I could drink alcohol. I thought I hated beer BUT THEN I HAD ARMORED COW GLUTEN FREE BEER! My favorite so far is Hell Yeah but Miss Rosie is good too. I can’t wait to try all they offer gluten free. Thanks for making beer I can drink and enjoy!

This was fairly quick and easy to customize for my dietary restrictions (gluten and dairy free). The crust was delicious for gluten free but needed to cook longer. Overall it was a great meal!

May have been the rudest customer service experience I've ever had. I have a gluten allergy and the guy making my sandwhich was being extremely rude the whole time and literally did not care that I had a gluten allergy. The atmosphere in there was extremely tense. I think, the "manager" on duty(?), had his shirt unbuttoned halfway down. They were all very off towards me, and were busy talking about how they were going to be trading food with another store. The service is whatever, but I'm writing this review because of my allergy. He even asked if it was a preference or allergy, and I said allergy, and he carried on making it with no glove change, didn't clean the boards, literally didn't do anything differently. I can literally become physically sick from gluten. I wish that this matter had been taken more seriously.

Went during prime lunch time but the line moved quickly. Food was great, really love they have black lentils. Wish the falafel was gluten free

This place is a landmark for anyone who frequents the University Area. The food is great; a little more authentic than your typical Mexican-American cuisine. Plenty of gluten free and vegetation options. Delicious corn chips and a variety of salsas to start off your meal. Great outdoor seating by the lake at University Place. Great for drinks or a meal.
