Cute cafe bakery! I’m not from these parts, but in the area for a medical appointment. I’m also celiac, and was in search of some gluten free eats. Was blown away by the GF selection here! Has toasted turkey on amazing (and BIG!!) GF bread and took a GF apple pie home. Just wonderful :) (and yes the crackers aren’t GF but they are individually wrapped so I was not really concerned)

Delicious food & incredibly friendly staff give Bella Luna a truly heart-warming atmosphere for an awesome dining experience! Gluten-Free: Very accommodating gluten-free options! GF Pizza (Hand-rolled cauliflower crust) + GF Pasta (Penne) options available. Great selection of non-alcoholic mocktails too -- 0% ABV old fashioned & spicy margheritas -- what's not to love!

I really love their sub sandwiches. The rolls they put them on I very tasty. I've had good luck with turkey bacon avocado options. They have a gluten-free sandwich roll option, so my daughter is able to get a sandwich here also. I did try the French dip and wasn't super impressed with the au jus. It didn't have a lot of flavor. If I tried it again, I would probably ask for double meat on it, as that seemed a lot less than is present on a cold sub sandwich.

Server was very nice, and attentive, but not intrusive. It was quite on a Sunday at 4, so it's a good place for an early dinner. Delicious zesty nachos. Lots of gluten free options. Dennys is a classic for me and a fan favorite for my kids, who love the birthday cake pancakes.

Have been coming here for almost 8 years and they never disappoint. Busy Friday night and there was great and attentive customer service! Not only did I feel seen, but I didn't feel as though I was bothering anyone when I asked for anything during our dinner tonight. It was great, and such a clean atmosphere. We ordered a lot of food tonight and were not disappointed with that or the wine! Thank you for all being friendly with the gluten free transparency and options.
