Great burgers and a very unique location. The service tends to be slow and under-staffed but friendly. We will be going back for sure when we aren't in a rush. Good gluten free options for those who need it.

This place is fantastic! I had the 'build your own' bowl and it was pretty much the best bowl I have ever eaten. It smelled amazing and tasted the same. The balsamic red peppers were particularly great. Service was excellent and everyone seemed super helpful. I have food allergies and they were happy to let me know exactly what each item had in it. We also ordered a gluten-free and vegan chocolate cookie and it was soft and had a really strong chocolate flavor. 2 of us shared it and that was enough as we don't eat much sweets. Overall, can't wait to come this way again.

Best Pizza in San Diego? Yes! Fantastic dough & Crust with the best Red Pizza sauce I have found anywhere. I am gluten free but went with a regular crust pizza ( Sometimes I need to splurge) . Plenty of indoor seating now and fully open for business.

This is the BEST pizza, hands down! I did not think it could get better, but after discovering my gluten intolerance, I tried the gluten-free pizza... OMG it's even better than the regular pizza! Our favorite is the white pizza, add sausage. Order in advance, their quality pizza takes time to make. On average, we call in 40min before we want to pick up. The ingredients are quality, and if there are any mistakes with your order, their staff is great at correcting them. We are so lucky Bongiorno is so lose to our home. It's always a treat to eat there

Another great experience! I had a protein burger (no bun). If you tell them gluten allergy, they totally get that and you can eat safely, even with Celiac Disease. They listen and they serve well. Food is fantastic as always!

I rarely go to Italian restaurants: the marinara sauce is too acidic at most places. So I just avoid them. My family suggested Villa Capri based on a friend's experience, so we tried it. This review is past due since I've now eaten there twice. This review is of our most recent visit. We started with the mixed seasoned grilled vegetables - a perfectly prepared combination of zucchini, summer squash, red and green peppers, and mushrooms. Sadly, you only get a picture of zucchini, as we devoured the rest before I thought to get a picture. My daughter had the Penne Elena - grilled salmon with penne pasta, prepared with gluten free noodles. She said her salmon was not overcooked, which can be a problem at some places. As you can see, it looked amazing. My wife had the Francesca - also penne pasta with salmon, but this salmon was mixed into the dish along with asparagus tips, leeks, and a pink tomato sauce. She enjoyed it immensely. I had the Ravioli special for the evening - basic cheese ravioli but with spinach added, in a basil marinara sauce. Beautiful, flavorful, thick sauce with no hint of acidity. Topped with fresh grated Parmesan, Don't be afraid to try the house red wine. It nicely complemented my meal. And good gluten free choices are always a welcome find. We'll be back.

It's usually got what you need. The only issue I have is that there are times the shelves aren't stocked. That's usually a Saturday because Thursday & Friday shoppers wipe them out. They do try, but I've not seen a lot of success. Sometimes, what you need is not on the shelf yet, but ask the friendly store associate and they'll check for you. I did find Gluten Free Oreo Cookies and I will be back for more!!

A great little spot for good, affordable Greek food for lunch or To Go anytime. Portions are generous. The side salad is simple, but crispy cold 'n fresh with a nice, light creamy dressing. The avgolemono chicken 'n rice soup is comforting and delicious. I also ordered a steak kabob plate and he actually asked me how I like my steak cooked. How great is that?! I took it To Go and found it was perfectly medium rare as I ordered it, (of course). Nice sear on the outside and marinated tender on the inside. Gluten-free options available. Tired of chain fast food? Hungry for something good? Come here. 👍👍

Don't go here for the atmosphere. Go here for the food. At least the ramen. I had the Tonkatsu ramen and my son ordered the vegetable ramen with egg and chashu pork. He asked for rice noodles and no soy sauce so it would be gluten free and they were happy to accommodate. Broad selection of poke also. Forgot to ask if any of their many sauces could be made gluten free. I guess that gives me a reason to go back.
