The arepas at Guasaca are fantastic, there are so many options and flavor combos (all gluten free, + vegan options), and the prices are super reasonable. I tend to get three different arepas, and I can typically eat two... and then I save the third for later :) The sauces are all tasty and the spicy one is the best (IMO)! I'm GF and every time I'm in the triangle I get Guasaca before my ride back to the coast - my can't miss spot.

Amazing service from staff. Gluten-free options were noted by our server taking the usual stress out of eating out; really appreciate him going the extra mile to remind me of the things I couldn'thave as they were brought to the table for the others in my party. Highly suggest the mushroom broth. It's very flavorful but not overpowering.

I recently came to Madhatter’s for brunch, and I loved the diversity of the menu. They have breakfast all day which is a plus! I tried the wasabi salmon bowl, with an iced Vietnamese coffee. I have zero complaints, they’ve got me hooked on the coffee now. I’ve also ordered cakes for my family member’s birthdays and they are pretty delicious. The tiramisu is a must (but then again I am biased because I love coffee). They have gluten free and vegan options for savory items and sweet items which is a must. Staff is always super friendly!

Truly NY STYLE. Huge, great, thin crust slices. Wife’s gluten free pizza also amazingly good — Italian Garlic Chicken fantastic. Atmosphere funky-corner-slice shop - PERFECT, if, like me, you miss Bklyn. We only had pizza, but pasta and subs looked good. Angel, owner (also from Bklyn), could not have been friendlier.

Been here twice in a week! Food (and vibes) is fantastic. They have gluten free bread; biggest hack is to make your own sandwich with the gf bread!
