Had the best dining experience at Chang’s! My server Andrea was so attentive and extremely kind. I have a gluten allergy which can sometimes be a pain when I eat out but she was so helpful and kind when answering all my questions. I will definitely be going back to eat and hope to have her as my server again!

Amazing pizza 🍕 spot and everything Italian. Even better kitchen manager, Nicko. This guy was so professional and had incredible hospitality. We had never been to this spot before and he answered all our menu questions. My wife has gluten allergies and he provided gluten-free options. I had the Mexican pizza which Nicko recommended. So delicious. We will be back. Thank you 💯💎

Pretty typical chain brew house. Service was excellent, food was decent but not exceptional. Good selection of beers. I got the chicken pitas and enjoyed them. My husband and son got burgers and said they were good. While this isn't any place exceptional or amazing, it's a good brew house staple. You know what you're getting. They did a good job for my mom who needs to eat gluten free as well.

I have a gluten allergy, unfortunately. And tomato sauces disagree with me. They only had one option for gluten free pasta. Which was Penne, but several sauces. I got the Pesto and added grilled chicken. Came out perfect. Dessert Creme Brulee.

The food here is great for the first time visiting for myself. Being Celiac/Gluten free I felt very comfortable eating here. They had a lot of options for me. My friend who was not eats here all the time and loves it here! The service was good at first but he seemed to get lost after we we got our meal. We were never got refills of our drinks and it was not busy. I am not fussy nor a picky Person. But he literally just never came back. When it was time for our check we had to find him. 😆 The atmosphere was nice, clean and bright and Not to loud. Really a 4.5. I will come back definitely and hope it was just a bad day for the server. 😊

Was there on May 26 and ordered the endless breakfast. The cheesy scrambled eggs were so good. They were cooked perfectly. The hash browns were also cooked to perfection. The eggs and hash browns are the best I have had at any restaurant in years. The pancakes were very good. I also ordered a side of bacon and that was a waste. There were two pieces and they were pretty skimp. They also tasted like they had been microwaved much earlier than every things else was made. My friend ordered the veggie omelette and she said it was so good. She had a gluten free English muffin and it was cooked well. Also got the side of fruit and it was fresh and everything tasted great. All the staff were friend and attentive. Everything was so good we went back this morning (May 27) and it was a very different experience. The staff were still good but the food, not so much. I ordered the Build Your Own breakfast with the scrambled eggs, biscuit, hash browns, and fruit. The fruit (bananas, grapes, and cantaloupe) was SOOOOOOOOO good. The biscuit was good. The scrambled eggs were pretty good. The hash browns were flat nasty. They were so greasy they literally left a grease slick on the plate. They were inedible. I had them switched for the ham and it was ok. My friend ordered the same thing as the day before and her English muffin was fine. Her hash browns were also greasy but not as bad as the ones I had. She said her omelette was also very greasy.

This is a cute cozy place that we dined in at and I was pleasantly surprised by their food options! And guess what? They have gluten-free options! I'm gluten intolerant so im always looking for places I can eat at! When I asked the server questions, she knew all the ingredients of each dish, making it really easy for me to order! She mentioned all the soups are gluten free, and many dishes use mushroom powder. I ate Tom Kha, which was absolutely delicious!!!!! And the Chicken Satay was good too! Both gluten free! The people that worked there were also very kind and made us laugh, very hospitable which made our experience even more sweet! I highly recommend this place! I'm looking forward to coming back!

Door dasher did NOT speak English very well & by the time he arrived the food was cold. BUT WHEN I TELL YOU THAT FOOD WAS 🔥. My husband are staged @ Pilot truck stop for a delivery in the morning. We ordered lunatic sampler, side of carrots, chickpea medley w/rice & the vegetable kebabs. Everything was super fresh, and I’m sure it would’ve been better if it was hot. This was at no fault of the restaurant. Even down to the gluten-free brownie, which is rich by the way, rich in flavor. Will most definitely order when we’re in this area again. As we are truckers and hard to find healthy good food. Very grateful for this.

Great place to enjoy a delicious meal and unwind. Service is great here and the food is delicious! Hubby and I ordered their Buffalo Gorganzola Chicken Bites, to die for, and Rustic Salad for starters. I had the San Miguel pizza with gluten free crust, pizza flavor/toppings were delicious but, GF crust wasn't the best. That said, it's nearly impossible to find a great GF pizza crust, so I don't fault them for that. Hubby's lasagna looked so good and he definitely enjoyed every bite!

Service was kind of slow last night, not sure why. But the awesome part:. We had a member of our party who has Celiac disease. We asked for the gluten free menu ( which they have an allergies list, on line too), instead of the menu, the manager came over and asked if we needed the fries prepared separately, as well as the wings. Awesome 👍. Most places don't realize the gluten is microscopic, and it isn't gluten free to fry the fries in the same oil as the breaded anything else. As well as they use the same bowls to cover the sauce on breaded wings and traditional. So the fries were separated and the wings had the sauce on the side. Thank you so much for actually understanding "gluten free"

Great views, good food. Eating by the bay is always a nice treat- and it's a good place to take visitors to (not to far from airport), if you have business in the South Bay. But in general, a very nice place to go to for lunch. Reasonably priced. The serving staff seems to be knowledgeable about gluten free selections, in case that is an issue for you.

The restaurant is clean and tidy, the keep it nicely put together. It opens for breakfast, lunch and dinner, they have good music, nice environment, parking could be a bit tight, there are handicap spots, and there is okay if room between the tables. There are vegetarian options, also gluten free. Their menus are easy to read and their drinks are great. The service was very nice, the waitress was very kind, she had a lot of patience for us, took out order, they are fast, and the food is good a bit salty first my taste, yet it has good sason!!
