Their gluten free bread is delicious and unique! Not just a sandwich served on an Udi’s bun. Their sandwiches are delicious and the place itself is super cute. Great costumer service and lovely presentation.

There’s nothing better than a grilled cheese sandwich from Cheesesmith ESPECIALLY because they have GF options for those like myself who can’t have gluten. 10/10 all around.

Into healthier food options?! Stop by Panacea. They have a nice selection of healthy tasty dishes. The classic burger plant based with gluten free bun is one of my favorites. The coconut curry soup is amazing.

More like Miss the Point. So my partner has celiac/gluten free, which is why we came here. First off the guy who brought us our water was the best part of our evening, he was really friendly. A bit later our actual waiter came and told us “Everything” on the menu can be made gluten free, multiple times and that the chef was celiac. He then went on to describe the menu to us for quite a while, like 5-10 min a while. Cool so we picked the beet salad to split and chicken wings to start with. Well the chicken wings are not gluten free, so we went with the pickled vegetables instead. And we ordered the Mahi fish, which also has a $5 charge for splitting as noted on the daily printed menu we were informed about. First they gave us “vegetables” instead of bread. It was dry carrots, purple cauliflower, and uncooked fennel, no dipping sauce , yum. Then our salad came out split on two plates, and I’m not kidding it was about 7 pieces of lettuce and one beat (split) between us. And the dressing was a spicy buffalo sauce. It was weird. Then the pickled vegetables came out, well they weren’t pickled, but they definitely had been sitting in some vinegar somewhere, my guess is about 10 min before they came. A bit later the waiter came back and said the Mahi was out and they could substitute scallops, and also substitute the white chocolate mole sauce for butternut squash. At this point we had no idea what we were about to consume. We gladly said no and skipped the main course. The drinks came and were “fine”, nothing bad nor special. The waiter knew something was wrong; so he offered to take the pickled vegetables off the ticket - thanks I guess… it was still $60 too much. We instead went to the corner market and got some Ruffles and Onion dip - it cost about $6 and was better than anything PinPoint had to offer and was actually gluten free, the guys (locals) behind the counter never heard of the PinPoint. It’s a tourist trap, don’t go here.

GLUTEN FREE when you eat the chicken salad without the crackers that come with the chicken salad scoops. The chicken salad and fruit were great and tasted fresh.

My fiance has a gluten allergy and seeing how the staff handled making her sandwhich (cleaning everything, using separate utensils, etc) was extremely impressive. Thank you!! Staff was awesome.
