Super friendly staff and really awesome gluten free food options. Came in around 9am today on 06/23/25 and got two breakfast sandwich’s and the chicken tender appetizer. First time I’ve eaten out since I developed a severe gluten allergy over a year ago. That breakfast sandwich and those chicken tenders are a must try! :) loved the BBQ sauce.

1000/10! If I lived in Tucson, Renee’s would be seeing me ALOT. Lots of Gluten Free options and super yummy! If you’re in Tucson and need a romantic dinner spot this is the one, the vibe was literally perfect!

One of the best gluten free crusts I've ever tasted

We were a party of eight for Easter brunch, we ordered the tomato mozzarella drizzled in balsamic vinegar. The tomato was thin and appeared to have been overproduced from Saturday or even Friday a fresh basil leaf would have enlivened the presentation. We also ordered fried mozzarella. The breading was fresh and nicely fried, there was no flavor transfer indicating good fryer discipline. The gluten free mushrooms and cheese pizza enjoyed by my companions was well presented but not distinctive. The Tomato sauce used for the chicken parm and as a basis for the other tomato pasta dishes was flavorful. I noticed all of the pasta dishes were made with linguini. Unfortunately, the pasta appears to have been cooked long past al dente in bulk long ahead of service. NOT cooked to order. I’m not even sure the pasta was rinsed and chilled in ice water because the texture was so starchy because it may not have been cooked in enough water. It may not have been reheated in water but rather brought up to heat in some kind of green congealed creamy sauce with little distinct flavor of pesto no visible arugula or basil leaf entwined in a vibrant pasta pesto. The sunflower seeds were interesting but my northern Italian culinary training pesto is Pinole. When the dish was presented it appeared to have been molded in a bowl and turned onto plate guaranteed to hold its shape. The Service was friendly customer focused and very responsive. Outdoors under the veranda was perfect. Overall we enjoyed each others company

Nice selection of toppings you can load on top your pie, wife likes gluten free option.

Robin Stone

We love going to Sauce. They have gluten free pasta. If you like a little kick, try the spicy sausage pasta. If you prefer no heat, the cheesy chicken broccoli pasta is the bomb.

Seana Washburn

This place is the best dang Chinese food I’ve ever had, not only that. They can make gluten free on most their plates. And it taste just as good. Seriously, I could eat this every single night. Me and the hubby love it! We drive across town just to eat there. Lady who owns the place is super sweet also.

Yolanda Madrigal

I don’t think I’ve ever had such an amazing and absolutely delicious experience at a bakery before. And I am definitely a pastry/bakery fan. Not only is absolutely everything you choose, beyond delicious but all of the people that work there are always so kind and welcoming. I didn’t even know that all of the pastries were vegan because I am not a vegan, they are absolute best pastries I’ve ever had. So many selections including savory and sweet and even gluten-free options. I come here way too much if that’s even possible. The menu changes from week to week and it keeps you coming back.

Steve Jain

Excellent Mexican cuisine...not just the regular dishes, tortilla stuffed chicken and shrimp poblano elegante enchiladas, plus more Guacamole made table side. One of the best micheladas I've had. Almost everything can be gluten free (except burritos) with corn tortillas. Service is friendly. Outdoor seating when it's seasonable.

Jordan Walker

My husband and I came in for a late dinner, I got the sweet potato street fries and they were delicious! Lots of gluten free and dairy free options for us. Our server, Danny, was so patient with all of our questions and very kind.

Chris Spidle

Great meal- I had the red enchilada special and a mesquite latte. Make sure to hit the salsa bar. Service was fast and friendly. Tons of gluten free options.

Lavon Womack

We had four different meals and a dessert and all were fantastic and almost everything on the menu was gluten free. My wife cant have gluten so it was a great surprise that she could order almost anything on the menu instead of just a couple of things.

Rosana Cumberland

If you have a friend who is vegan or vegetarian, but you're not, definitely take them here. Excellent food. I tried a little bit of several dishes. I was impressed with all except the pickles, but I am not a pickle person anyway. I highly recommend the Peruvian Beef dish, the gluten free Mac and cheese, the broccoli side, and the falafel wrap.

Hilda O'Dell

Gluten-free pizza (Barro's pizza) and the gluten-free italian sandwich are delicious. Customer service needs improvement.

I have been frequenting this restaurant for years. The food is so good & capuchino is delightful. The employees are super always making sure you have everything & the employees who clear the table are on top it removing dirty dishes & refilling water. They have a delicious freshly baked bakery. I tried their gluten, dairy free cinnamon cake which was an absolute 10. Their gift shop is really great with unique & funny gifts.

Jennifer Shawgo

Love this place! First the food is phenomenal and the staff are always so welcoming and helpful. But have you had their cakes??? OMG they are amazing!!! I have ordered cupcakes on multiple occasions and my guests are always impressed by how delicious they are and always say “I can’t believe these are vegan and gluten free!”. My daughter graduated UofA this week so I ordered a cake for her party. WOW! It was gorgeous and so yummy! Everyone must try this place vegan or not you will love the food!

Laura Boyle

Fresh, homemade curries with lots of veggies. Great options for gluten free and vegan. Wonderful service!!!

R AB

I have mixed feelings. When we arrived the service was great & the waitress took an interest in our allergies (gluten, dairy). She told us about cross contamination & was so great. Two of us were served our sandwiches (which were very good) but our friend did not receive her salad. We ordered a cutlery board & it came 1/2 way through our meal but the hummus was covered in cheese. I had to send it back We finished our meal & our plates were cleared . A waitress (Shane) came with just a plate of gluten free bread. I explained that I sent hummus cutlery board back because it had cheese & decided to just cancel. However, I was charged for the hummus cutlery board even though it was never served. When I told her, she seemed upset, grabbed the receipt & said she would have it removed. Crazy experience. The guy who refilled our drink & cleared out table was super excellent.

Erin Hamilton

Great tamales, great (welcoming, nice, helpful) service. Good vegetarian options, and clear markings for veg vs. vegan and gluten free. Sides are delicious too. Don’t forget some cinnamon crisps to go!

Anna Krieg

I love their gluten free pitas! So good!

Fantastic!!!! We just ate lunch at Queen Sheba, an authentic Eritrea restaurant., and it was a wonderful experience. The food was super tasty, featuring unfamiliar, yet delicious flavors. We ordered a couple combo plates (one lamb and one vegetarian), which were presented "family style." No utensils were used, and it was a lot of fun scooping up the entrees with fresh-baked, gluten-free Eritrea flatbread. Loved it!! If/when you are up for something completely different, but yummy . . . give Queen Sheba a try. I can't wait to bring the whole family there for a fun feast!

Abby

Could eat only this for the rest of my life. Must visit! Lots of gluten free and vegan options.

Gluten free options are awesome. Love this place

Short & Sweet Comfy, art-filled café on 4th Ave, perfect for a bite, local vibes, and supporting the community. Brewing coffee and connection in Tucson’s heart. Longer Musings Café Maggie’s on 4th Ave is the kind of coffee shop that fits you like an old pair of denim—comfortable, worn-in, and ready for all the possibilities. Nestled just steps from the 4th Ave Streetcar and close to the University of Arizona, it’s got an effortless artsy vibe that just is what it’s meant to be—an authentic local spot. Inside, rotating local art fills the walls, community event flyers are tucked along the windows, and a mutual aid water station outside speaks to the café’s dedication to supporting neighbors. It’s the kind of space where chance meetings birth creative change, where ideas flow as easily as the coffee, and revolutionary conversations stoke impassioned visions for tomorrow. You’ll find me here on sunny afternoons with my favorite drink, an extra dirty hot chai latte- perfection! ☕️ 🥧 Their menu has something for everyone, whether you’re vegan, gluten-free, have restrictions, or simply curious. Today I had the avocado toast and was pleasantly surprised to find they kept it simple and let the flavors speak for themselves! Not sure what to order? Just ask—the staff is as welcoming as the space itself. With seating inside and out, nearby metered parking, and convenient options to pay with cash, card, or tap, Café Maggie’s makes grabbing a coffee or meal here easy. And don’t miss the people-watching! Located near the University and in the heart of historic 4th Ave, it’s perfect for a quick escape, gathering with friends, or just being in the moment.

Great food! Especially if you are gluten intolerant. But food is really good!

Denise

Fun, retro-styled breakfast diner. (They have both indoor and covered outdoor seating, we ate indoors.) The atmosphere is cheerful and bright, and the service was really attentive. Everyone in our party of four enjoyed our meals. My omelette was excellent, as were the hash browns, and I was glad to discover I could get a (gluten free) warm corn tortilla instead of toast. This was my first time here, visiting from our of state, but two of my dining companions eat here regularly -- I wish I could, too!

Richard Tuckett

The quality of the food has definitely dropped, based on my experience there last night. The egg drop soup used to be rich and flavorful, last night it was thin and bland. The lettuce wraps are now served with ridiculously small lettuce leaves that you can’t make a wrap with, and the peanut sauce tasted like salad dressing. They have also eliminated many gluten free options, a reason I used to enjoy this restaurant. I’d no longer recommend it. The waitstaff were very good, too bad the food wasn’t.

Michael Jesse

New Delhi Palace has great food options, even Vegan and Gluten Free. The naan was the size of an 8 inch pizza, so dig in. The Tikka Masala has the right amount of spices. I had mild this time, I’ll go hotter next time. I took home some Gulab Jamun.

Susan Orr

We try and find a vegan restaurant when we travel. This one is a must if you are in Tucson. Also can accommodate gluten free which is hard to find one with both!

The manager, I believe his name is Matthew, has excellent customer service and an astounding work ethic for a guy his age. He is friendly and you can really tell that he cares about the quality of his work. All of these attributes are seen in the staff because of the leadership here; making this an enjoyable and friendly experience. Every time I come in I get a giant #13 done the mikes way on a gluten free bun and this establishment will clean everything and use new knives and such to prevent cross contaminations. I really appreciate the effort. 5 starts for this establishment!

chelsea donoho

I am not exaggerating when I say this is the best burger I’ve ever had!!!!! & it’s vegan & gluten free!!!! I am so in love. The fries & flash fried green beans were SO GOOD too. & vegan ranch! My dream come true. Wowowwwww thank you for this

Claudia Salas Lyman

Great Mexican restaurant! The staff is. Ery friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is very relaxed. Great food, many options and good size portions. There is also keto friendly menu, vegetarian, vegan and gluten free. I recommend it 💯

John Diet

Really enjoyed their house black bean burger and homemade fries. Vanilla gluten-free cupcake for dessert was awesome. The staff is super attentive and friendly ...very good vibe about the place. Purchased some deli meat from the refrigerated section and one of the staff gave us a sample of their homemade vegan roast beef. Look forward to trying that tonight.

Risa Khamsi

I come here every time I visit Tucson! Today the coconut chutney and black eyed peas were especially good. Delicious & fresh every time and the courtyard is beautiful. Love this place! All vegetarian with vegan and gluten free options.

Michael Pfirrman

We used to go here with our daughter when she lived in town, but hadn't been there again until recently. The manager, server, and food were good with the exception of the change in the Gluten Free bun recently to Against the Grain, which has dairy and is like a brick. Please change back to something that isn't so hard and doesn't have dairy in it!!

We have been to Feast numerous times and will continue because: the menu is ever changing, the service is good, the owner is a kind, authentic human, the wine list is extensive, you can try out digestifs and you can go with your celiac husband, who is an incredible cook himself and trust the staff to protect him from cross contamination. Go there, eat slowly, savor the experience and be feasted!

My daughter and I have Celiacs disease, prior to arriving my husband called and asked all the questions regarding the sandwich. They were very helpful and knowledgeable. When we came in Ari helped us out and made our sandwich. She cleaned everything and cut fresh lettuce. She got all the toppings from the back and even had a special cutting board for us Celiacs!! She took all the precautionary measures to ensure we didn't get contamination of Gluten. At the end the sandwich was delicious and her service was amazing!! I highly recommend Jersey Mike's to all Celiacs. I'm beyond happy we have more options for us!! Thank you Ari for being so amazing!!
