Long ago, I loved this place. They had the best brunches. Then I became allergic to soy and gluten. They have almost no options for those with allergies - they are completely stuck in the past. The menu needs a major overhaul after 20 years and overall the place is run down. It's unfortunate.
This vibrant spot is a must-visit for families, offering a welcoming atmosphere, unique menu twists, and convenient table service in downtown Evanston.

Cupitol is a must whenever I am visiting the area. I love how they offer wait staff if you want service, or cafe style seating if you choose. The breakfast sandwiches have a gluten free option and the matcha is pure perfection.
Perfect for family outings, this spot shines with unique options, a vibrant atmosphere, and a welcoming vibe for all ages.

We had a great birthday lunch at Bat 17. The sunny side up burger was awesome and I was able to get a gluten free bun as well. Very kid friendly. Staff was great. Kids loved it.

This is a surprise alternative for eating out gluten-free.(Meals are made with corn tortillas. But they don't have gluten-free bread.) The food is yummy! And how many different people can come to serve you in a joint this small? A shockingly high number. They have Jarritos to go with the meal, too. I took my teen to brunch for his birthday and he wasn't disappointed - teen boys can eat a lot, and he was stuffed. An enjoyable experience.
A go-to spot for a quick, satisfying meal, boasting top-notch quality and a hassle-free online ordering system.

Of course Gigio’s has long been a favorite for lunch with our office being just down the street. The quality, price, and speed are all top notch.
I recently tried the gluten free crust pizza though and it turned out great, the crust was crispy and I got to have the sausage and pappadew peppers just like the regular pizza by the slice. You have to offer a whole pizza which if you eat the whole thing is beyond filling I’ll try to just have two slices next time and save the other half.
Their online ordering system is direct to the restaurant as well so they aren’t losing out on third-party app fees.
10/10 would recommend!
I have loved this place since it first opened. The owner is always friendly and up to chat if it isn't flooded. He remembers who I am even if I haven't been able to come back for a little while.
The food is also always amazing. Even better-- they have gluten free buns that are delicious! I love the griddle burgers and the hot fudge milkshakes.
If you haven't tried this place what are you doing with your life?
They have gluten free buns great alternative, would have given 5 stars but high chance of cross contamination with the fries sharing the same deep fryer as gluten based goods..
My company had our holiday party here and it was wonderful! We had the privet party room upstairs, complete with a privet bar and restrooms. The food....AMAZING! We had the spare ribs (delicious and tender), salmon (to die for), mashed potatoes (so flavorful), roasted Brussels sprouts (yum) and a gluten free mushroom pasta that was so full of flavor and full of deliciousness you would never know! For dessert we had a cake (and you will forgive me for not remembering the name of it) that was topped with an amazing glaze and a side of whipped cream. This cake was so moist...amazing. I have said amazing a million times, but it was. My friends and I are going to come here because I want them to experience this wonderful place. My suggestion look at the menu online and make your decisions ahead of time, or just go with the above selections. Also, $$$$ so factor that in, but SO worth it!
Quirky spot with a cozy vibe, known for tasty dishes, satisfying portions, and a welcoming atmosphere that keeps everyone coming back.

Cozy environment, great food and good service. We had a fulfilling lunch which included Tamarind noodles (chicken), chicken robata, salmon rolls, Yakitori Don with Jasmine tea on the side. Food was tasty and the portion size was appropriate. We will go back there again. I don’t believe they serve alcohol but that is fine. Great gluten free options. This is a gem of a place. You will not be disappointed.
Experience vibrant Puerto Rican flavors, imaginative cocktails, and stunning art, all adding a unique twist to the local dining scene.

Puerto Rican food and spices and olives so interesting. Love the ceviche-- very different than Mexican ceviche. Good sized portions, gluten free and vegan options. Imaginative cocktails. Art is beautiful -- great addition to the international options of Howard Streets Restaurant Row.
Experience a spot where allergy notes are prioritized, making it a thoughtful choice for diners who need that extra care.

I love the food, everything I’ve tried has been very tasty. A close friend of mine is visiting and is very intolerant of gluten, this is one of the few restaurants that’s taken the care to make sure her food is safe and she was able to enjoy her dinner without getting sick. I especially like that they highlighted the allergy notes on the ticket. I wasn’t able to get ahold of them on the phone to ask about allergies but I was able to use the chat feature on their Google listing which was quick and easy!

Ordered the spicy spring roll salad for lunch today and it was delicious! It can be easily made gluten free if you ask them to switch Super Grains for the Rice/Quinoa blend. They accidentally forgot to put the dressing in the salads before they were delivered, and when we called to let them know, someone from the store drove them to our location right away. Amazing service!
