“Joey” is one of our favorites, a vibrant spot that perfectly balances a laid-back atmosphere with an upscale vibe, making it an amazing place for both drinks and a full meal. Our server, Paris, was an absolute gem! She took us under her wing, ensuring we felt welcome and attended to throughout our visit. Not only did she make great recommendations from the extensive drink menu, suggested specifically about Italian wine, but she also went the extra mile to ensure that my mom received her gluten-free meal, as she has a gluten allergy. Paris was knowledgeable about the menu and provided fantastic options, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The food was delicious, with each dish beautifully presented, and we couldn't help but share a few bites around the table. Overall, our visit to “Joey” was memorable, thanks to Paris and the delightful atmosphere. We left feeling satisfied and eager to return for another round of red and extra spicy Margarita!

The donuts are great… when they actually have them. For some reason, every time I come to this location, they’re out of almost everything. If you’re gluten free, you’re in luck. If you want one of their signature donuts, better luck next time. I wouldn’t think it would be that hard to plan ahead and make sure you have, you know.. donuts at your donut shop.

We had a group of 10 and they accommodated us very well. All the food was amazing. They made sure my daughter with celiac disease had separate pans for her gluten free meal. She had the filet skewers, baked potato, and rice. The poke bowl and Artichoke were sooooo good too. Excellent service.

The food was absolutely amazing. Each dish that we ordered was really good. The menu was clear on what foods were gluten-free. The staff were easygoing and helpful. The atmosphere was very comfortable inside. Same for the outside seating that included a fireplace feature.

They always have everything I need gluten-free

Delicious burger! The grilled chicken breast was so juicy! Also amazing gluten free menu.

Dana Berwick

Food was excellent. The server was great. The atmosphere was comfortable. I had a very relaxing and tasty meal here. I will be stopping again when I'm back in town. Many gluten free options and the server was extremely knowledgeable.

Lauren Selby Jones

The kids loved it here and they had a lot of gluten free options. You get to help yourself to everything and then they weigh your pot and charge you for the weigh. The price was very reasonable!

Wild Cafe is a hidden gem with a warm, local vibe that makes you feel right at home. Their gluten-free options are impressive—not just available, but actually delicious. The food is fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. On top of that, the service is outstanding—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. A must-visit spot whether you’re gluten-free or just looking for a great meal in a laid-back setting.

Rachel Schmiedberg

They do not accomidate gluten allergy. No Tamari either.

Ruby Sokol

Awesome place to eat! We were in a rush as we needed to head to the airport and they accommodated us right away and made sure our food was out on time. Delicious menu and well priced, serves are generous and they also accommodate for gluten free diners :) Huge shout out to Anita for looking after us and making sure we were well fed 😄

We absolutely love this place, especially because it’s so celiac friendly. We recently went and the waiter told us they no longer have a gluten free frier, so items like the fries might have cross contamination. Bummer but would still recommend as food and service is great!

Hailey Ivie

The restaurant is beautiful but they didn’t have great gluten free / vegan options. Not their fault but unfortunately it was hard to eat here. Loved the spicy margarita though!!

Sandra Bucklin

Burgers were absolutely delicious; we love that they offer gluten-free buns. Fernando provided super friendly and helpful service. Burgers and fries were nice and hot. Beats Fat Burger by miles.

Ordered via DoorDash on my lunch break. This was my first experience with Lemonade and I was a bit disappointed. Half the food didn't look or taste nearly as good in person as it did in pictures. Mango chicken came with maybe 3 small chucks of mango on top. Sweet Potato, Mandarin & Pistachio and Snap Pea Edamame were just ok. I expected them to have more flavor especially the sweet potato. And portions were smaller than expected. Pineapple, Mango Lemonade was good but basically just tasted like lemonade. Not much pineapple or mango flavor. Positives: Food arrived hot and was well packaged. Smore brownie was moist and soft plus gluten free and dairy free! Curried Cauliflower and Hatch Green Chile Chicken had good flavor and chicken wasn't dry. I was also thankful for options to replace rice with greens or cauliflower rice.

Yummy yummy yummy you made a celiac woman full in the tummy.. I thank y'all so much! Unique meal and drink I'd love and such nice people!

Fun chain with a vast menu (I believe there’s a secret one as well). I was eager to try the Ménage a Trois per the recommendation of a friend, and I’m glad I did. The sandwich was well made and the Dutch Crunch bread is impeccable. The chicken was tender and I really liked the sweet sauce. The meal was filling and I had some leftover sandwich to have for the following day. All of the employees were really friendly, and the wait was less than 10 minutes for a sandwich. Takeout is what most people who came seemed to opt for. Vegan and vegetarian options are available. They also do have gluten-free bread. Parking was easy as there’s a free small lot. There are dedicated spots for clean air vehicles. Credit cards accepted. Indoor and outdoor seating available. The employees were all super nice. This is a solid spot to grab a hearty sandwich.

My husband, daughter and I had a really delightful dining experience for lunch. The service was great - both professional and friendly. Our server helped me pick my meal, I have a gluten sensitivity and asked for a recommendation because I couldn't decide. She did recommend something I had my eye on (shrimp and chx souvlaki) as a favorite but I wound up going with the Petra burger, sans bun - at which point she suggested, to my delight, a side of GF pita. The entire meal was so good! My husband got the gyro pita which he really enjoyed but I couldn't sample it, because there is gluten (bread crumbs) in the gyro which our server made sure to tell me - also something I really appreciated. Our 4yo daughter had a little of everything including our side of fries and liked it all! Thanks for a good meal and we'll definitely be back. Was so happily surprised by the GF pita, which was delicious.

I am a fan of the cupcakes. They are always moist and flavorful but not overly sweet. My favorite is strawberry 🍓 but chocolate and vanilla are a standard and the seasonal flavors are good too. They even make gluten free ones. My wife said it was good.

Elise Martinez

Equal parts fantastic food and fantastic service. Will did a lovely job explaining the menu and specials, and we truly enjoyed every plate. The fig and prosciutto pizza was delicious, and the gluten free menu accommodations were equally tasty. I look forward to returning and trying more of the menu. The general manager was charming and it’s obvious that chef really enjoys creating works of art on every plate.

The gluten free pizza is absolutely delicious!

Good food here. Good service. Their menu has gluten free and vegetarian and vegan options. Always good to have a friendly menu for dietary restrictions & clearly marked. The lack of star is because they don’t have Jaritos and we found their soda fountain lacking. But- they made me a NA tequila sunrise and I forgot to take a pic but the empty glass should tell you how tasty it was. Pleasant atmosphere. Good to visit if you get a chance. And a take out window.

Brought a group of 5 adults and a child and everyone had a great time and a great meal. Service was impeccable and great recommendations from our server. Options for pescatarians and gluten free. Scallops were perfectly prepared. Highly recommend the Apple crumble cheesecake.

Could not believe how many wonderful options that were for vegans who happen to be gluten-free. Amazing can’t wait to go back!

The open air restaurant is like Tulum meets Manhattan Beach. The waiter was great at making several food recommendations (and also suggestion how to have them prepared). Love that they serve 3 different salsa/dips/butter with hot flour tortillas. They also have corn tortillas if you’re gluten sensitive, like me. The carne asada (forget the name of the actual dish) was magical. The flavor was amazing and it was cooked perfectly.

We were at Sushi Roku Manhattan Beach for happy hour and they had a lot of great selections both food and drink. The staff was very accommodating to my daughter who has Celiac. They were also very present checking in and making sure we had everything we needed. It was a great place to celebrate my husbands birthday. We liked sitting in the outdoor patio.

Good service. Good food. Good location. Several sushi places to choose from near the pier. This one will not disappoint. Good for veggie and gluten free diets.

I wanted to give it a try to this place and taking into account that I follow a low carb "pseudo-keto" diet I wanted to take the risk. So this was a good choice y'all, as long as you DO NOT add any noodles to your order you are low carb and almost gluten free. They have a good meat selection, vegetables are fresh and good selection as well. You need to be careful with the spices if you do not can't tolerate very hot sauce because you can get confused with the multiple options they have. Long story short I do recommend this place, either you're following a strict diet (you manage your portions) or have any food restrictions since you pick your own ingredients.
