Great value and a unique experience. If you eat gluten free, make sure you double check with the kitchen staff that all of the food items (not just the injera) are gluten free.

Wow! What a wonderful restaurant. We had this place on our radar for a while and finally went for Friday date night. We ordered the lamb shank and a tlayuda. Both were very flavorful and delicious. This place has a very fun menu and we will be back soon to try additional items. The servers were very nice and they bring out chips with bean dip for an appetizer which was a fun and delicious change of pace from chips and salsa. This place is very friendly for gluten free diners and items that contain gluten are clearly marked on the menu.

Oh my goodness! The food is amazing. Even carnivorous friends are enjoying their meals! The smoothies are out of this world. Everything is 100% plant based and super crazy good! Also have lots of amazing gluten free options. Highly recommend for all people who enjoy good food!

The place is cool looking and the food was good but our waitress was terrible and extremely rude! I have a gluten allergy, and when I told her, she rolled her eyes. Literally rolled her eyes! I also wasn't drinking because I was driving. I ask her for a big water and again with the eye roll! There were 5 of us and our table was plenty big. I asked if we could pull up 2 more chairs because 2 more friends were joining. You guessed it...eye roll! She then said rudely, "I will have to check and see," and walked away. She never checked. When we got the bill, she added her tip. I guess you can be as rude as you want if you know the tip is going to be added. If I were not with other people, I would have left. Terrible experience.

My favorite Thai place in Chicago. Affordable, good portions, great flavor, gluten-free accommodations, and best thing is they have a system that remembers your order as a regular! I always get the Pad See Ewe with tofu. I love the service!

Awesome! This is the perfect restaurant for anyone who is vegetarian / vegan / gluten-free! We went in with a large group. From the veggie stir fry to the fried rice to various phos, all of the vegetarian food that we ordered was amazing! Everything was so fresh, not only the entrees but the piles of toppings like basil, culantro, and bean sprouts. We also ordered several of the boba teas that were gorgeous and tasty fruit smoothies! I highly recommend this restaurant. There is something for everyone!

Feels safe. They have seperated GF fryer and seperated glaze

My daughter ordered a thin crust cheese pizza for me to pick up and I was shocked at how bad the quality was when I opened the pizza box in the car, For one, the pizza was as thin as cardboard paper and it was burnt. Later, when me and my family ate the pizza, we came to a shared conclusion that the pizza tasted like charcoal with gluten. I am very disappointed.

Went here with a friend, based on the positive reviews...and we will be back!! The service, the menu options, and the food were all fabulous. They easily helped me navigate a gluten/wheat allergy and I did not get sick! Highly recommended.

Wowww. Just amazing all around! As I walked in the owner greeted me with the most beautiful bubbly personality ever! He had me at HELLO! The staff is so kind & VERY accommodating. The food is mouth watering no matter what I had!! I had a couple items from their special menu (cauliflower wings, pad woon sen, & beef short rib pho.). I also had Mama Suu Nems Imperial Rolls from the appetizer menu too. Everything I had was gluten free and that such a bonus because that's the type of diet I'm on...Delicious! I don't drink alcohol so they made me this amazing Lychee Martini Mocktail! Then they treated me to dessert on the house❤️❤️😊🎉. Harley & Dan treated me like a queen! Thank you guys. I'll be back!

My new go-to for Vietnamese food. Owners and cooks were very patient with accommodating for my friend with a severe gluten allergy. I believe owner also mentioned that, most (if not all) of their food is made without peanuts (they have a family member with a peanut-allergy). I ordered the Vegan Pho, Tofu Bahn Mi, and Shrimp mini-cakes. The plant-based meat used in the pho is definitely seitan but tastes very similar to beef, I could barely tell the difference (vegan meat has come a long way). Everything was very delicious.

I love all the delicious gluten free options!

Emma Andelson

I can't eat the Banh Mi (I need to eat gluten free) but I LOVE the other to-go food options, most of which are traditional Vietnamese foods, like rice pyramids with pork (don't know what they're actually called, sorry!). They have both sweet and savory options, in additional to a cute case of macaron (gluten free!). Only rated one star down on atmosphere because they only have outdoor seating and a few small tables in the back. The front feels a little sparse.

Great food, very friendly staff and quick service! 100% vegan and gluten free menu. I'll be back :)

This place is great one for vegans!!!! Loved the chefs special ! The flavors blend well and like that they also had gluten free noodles (rice) option. Great service . Quiet place and ambience. My husband had the chicken ramen and loved it as well ! Would definitely recommend !
