Best gluten free pizza I’ve had since going gluten free. Wish it was a little more affordable, but understand the cost due to the high quality of the imported flour. Definitely recommend!
A great spot to enjoy tasty meals with family, vibrant energy, and solid service, perfect for a casual outing with friends.

My partner and I had dinner here tonight. He got a burger which he said was very good. We shared a crab dip which was delicious. I am gluten free (allergy) so I was thrilled to see so many options. Unfortunately, I did indeed have a reaction to the gluten free pizza. My partner had tried their pizza here before at an earlier date and he did mention he enjoyed the piece of my gluten free crust very much, in his opinion he liked it better than the normal crust. I’m not sure if somewhere along the way my food somehow encountered gluten contamination. It’s understandable but disappointing. Thankfully I take enzymes for when I eat out which do reduce any reaction I may have if exposed. But aside from that the bacon fig pizza was very tasty. The atmosphere was great. And our server Keller, was friendly, and attentive. Another worker did say bye to us on our way out, which we appreciated. Great place, my advice is to people with celiac to just be careful and bring your antispasmodics/enzymes, just in case.
This cozy spot is a must-visit for fresh, delicious meals and a great atmosphere; it's perfect for those with dietary preferences seeking variety.

In the theater district of Frederick. Good food, service, cozy atmosphere. Good place for those with gluten free or vegan diets but also good for those without dietary restrictions. Yum!
A lively brunch spot with unique lattes and a great vibe, just expect a wait if you don’t have a reservation.

Service was friendly and fast, my food was delicious, and everyone enjoyed their lattes. My vegan and gluten-free friends had good options. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone visiting Frederick!
We have gone here twice now and it has been consistently great. Everything comes out fresh and quite quickly. The service has been incredible, always very polite and expedient. Most pasta they have a gluten free option for that tastes great. I am partial to the seafood platter in red sauce, as the seafood is all cooked perfectly, not overdone. The fried calamari appetizer is not overly breaded or fried too long. Waiters are attentive and our water was constantly replenished. Definitely our go-to Italian place.
A vibrant spot with fresh flavors and standout margaritas, perfect for a lively dinner vibe that keeps you wanting more.

It was our first time here and had a delicious dinner. Forgot to take pictures but had the shishito peppers, street corn and tacos and amazing margaritas. Thank you India for your great service and making sure my tacos were gluten free!
We got the Cobb Salad and Killer Fries. The salad was excellent! All the ingredients were so fresh, and the herbed vinaigrette was light and flavorful. My daughter is not always a big fan of salads but she devoured a good bunch of it. Killer fries live up to the name... covered in cheese and bacon with ranch on the side. All with friendly curbside pickup for keeping social distance. :-) Next time we may try the gluten-free pizza, and I definitely need to try the shepherd's pie with Guinness.
Very accomodating for gluten free me. The manager took the recipe book right out of the kitchen to even confirm sauces and rubs were safe for me. Felt like a local hole in the wall place with delish sauces. The mustard and sweet sauces were my favorite. Get a meal, you can load up on different types of meat on one big platter
