Off Campus Cafe has been our family favorite for a well-made, fresh and yummy breakfast or lunch. Sometimes we eat in, and sometimes we get food to go when we are headed to sports games. Side note: I’m gluten intolerant and have never had an issue here!! Definitely stop by, even if you are pressed for time. We’ve never waited long for our food!

Great gluten free options and knowledge about what is gluten free!

This is my family’s favorite Chinese restaurant now. The food is delicious and they are awesome with gluten-free options. The staff can tell you what they can and cannot make gluten-free. The best part is they can make orange chicken and General Tao’s chicken gluten free and the chicken is actually breaded and gluten free! Their egg drop soup and chicken fried rice are fantastic, too. Prices are very reasonable and the staff is very friendly. Highly recommend this restaurant.

This was our first visit to this establishment, it came very highly recommended by friends. We usually do not choose Italian since we are both gluten-free. I did not see any gluten-free options on the menu but there were other options to choose from. We had the brussel sprouts, calamari and paella. My husband raved about the paella since he lived in Panama, he said it was excellent. I gave four stars in the service area because our waiter was not attentive at all. He never asked how our meals were after they were delivered to the table. We asked for more dipping sauce for the calamari, he didn't know what it was and was asking us the name of it, well, we didn't know the name of it. We just know that it came with the calamari. 10 minutes later and we still didn't have more dipping sauce. Then a large bowl of sauce for the paella came to the table which we refused but were charged $3 for that on our bill but that's not what we asked for. We finally got the sauce for the calamari when we were boxing everything up and leaving. There was no reason for the poor service since we arrived at 4:45 p.m. and the restaurant was not busy.

Staff is amazing! Thank you! I get the iced matcha with oat milk and maple syrup & my boyfriend gets a cappuccino with whole milk. I have a gluten and dairy allergy and their oat milk is gluten-free. As for my boyfriend, this is the only place he’s found around town that makes a consistent cap. Everyone here is amazing. I tell everyone I know about this place. Thank you so much for making my mornings so much better!

To the owners and management of this establishment, I try not to write negative reviews. However, this experience deserved some attention. We wandered into your restaurant on Thursday around 9 p.m., eager for some much-needed “mom time” and a couple of late-night snacks to curb our munchies. As locals who are regulars at William Oliver's (shoutout to the New Orleans bartender, who makes the best Sazerac in the land), I had high hopes for your place. Spoiler alert: I should have known better. We were greeted promptly by a young redhead who, let's just say, didn’t exactly radiate warmth or enthusiasm. She approached us with all the energy of a tired houseplant, but hey, we’re moms out for some rare, carefree fun. We laughed a little louder than the average library crowd, but nothing too crazy. Apparently, Miss "I Haven’t Seen Fun in Years" was a little put off by our joy, though, because it was evident she could not have been more annoyed. My husband orders a beer (the first drink of the night, mind you), and here’s where things take a turn. We had just returned from an event in Denver and hadn’t had a drop of alcohol all day. But, we did partake in a little legal plant beforehand, because, well, it’s legal and we’re adults. But according to our lovely server, we were already over-served. Yes, you read that right: “over-served” when we hadn’t even taken a sip of anything. LOL. Look, as a former industry worker who has taken the TIPS class more times than I care to admit, let me just say this: her ability to assess intoxication was a level of wrong that could only be described as spectacularly misguided. Maybe she needs to stop playing judge and jury and stick to a job where her ‘intuition’ isn't needed—like, I don’t know, filing papers? And let’s talk about TIPS for a minute, because in that class, they teach you the basics—like, if you think someone’s had too much to drink, you immediately offer water. But nope, not a drop of water offered. We had to ask for it. Thanks for nothing. Oh, and by the way, my friend is gluten-free, so guess what was forgotten? The bread. But, of course! Because why not throw in a little extra touch of incompetence? At this point, we’re just trying to get through this disaster of an evening. This girl seriously needs a lesson in customer service. Honestly, she’d be better off in a job where she doesn’t have to gasp interact with other humans. Perhaps a nice desk job where she can stare at spreadsheets without worrying about things like “service” or “smiling.” She seemed to realize her lack of judgement and tried to make it right, but that ship had sailed. We took our money elsewhere. Long story short: we won’t be back. If your staff can’t tell the difference between laughter and intoxication, or figure out how to treat people like human beings, maybe it’s time to rethink your hiring strategy. Better yet, invest in some real training for the folks you employ. We'll stick with other local establishments where the drinks are great, the staff actually enjoys their jobs, and no one’s accusing us of being "over-served" before we’ve even had a sip.
