Ashley Radzat

Sabrina was kind, informative, and very friendly. The food was the perfect size and the taste was excellent. We had the Korean Noodles with chicken and being somebody that is Gluten free it was amazing to have friend chicken options!!

This was a fabulous place to grab lunch. As a person who must eat gluten free, I found the menu to be friendly to food allergies, the server was knowledgeable, and they took care to prevent cross contamination. The entire experience was terrific.

This is my go to place to take my family when they come visit me in Walnut Creek. Everything we have tried off the menu is delicious and they are so accommodating of allergies and dietary preferences. I’m gluten free, my mom is vegan, and my dad has a nut allergy and they are always so good about making any modifications and confirming them.

Easily my favorite cafe of all time! Rooted is a completely vegan space, so for those of us who are lactose intolerant there is 0 chance of a mistaken order making you sick. There are also lots of gluten free options. The only dietary restriction I would avoid this place for is a nut allergy, due to the vegan recipes being nut heavy. I don't think I've ever had a bad order from here. The menu is quite large with food, drinks, and pastry options. The food is well portioned, especially for a cafe, no tiny disappointing avocado toasts here! The staff is extremely friendly, some of the nicest baristas I've ever encountered. Being a vegan cafe, there are more non-dairy milk options here than any other cafe I've visited (oat, almond, macadamia, and soy), personally I recommend the macadamia. I highly recommend the churro latte with macadamia milk + the avocado toast make it fresh + the omega donut. The donuts are definitely "healthier" than your standard ones, but even my friends who aren't into items like that still enjoy them. The space is well set up for a large number of visitors with long communal tables near the door and standard tables near the back and outside. There is also a comfortable couch seating area. The vibes in here are fantastic with lots of plants as well as local art exhibitions. On weekends, there is sometimes a DJ outside spinning. It can get crowded easily though, most weekends it is a bit of a struggle to find a table, even with all the seating. I just wish they would bring back the "churro waffle sticks" from a few years ago! Those were the best item on the menu, but they've been gone for some time now.

Torsap is our go to for special meals. My son has celiac and the staff (hostesses/wait staff) here are exemplary at making sure his food is gluten free without cross contamination.

Gluten free friendly establishment. The fish is fresh and there's a nice selections of add-ins. This restaurant has special gluten-free sauces and are helpful when choosing gluten free options

The pasta and napa salad made a great combination. They were out of desserts except the gluten free chocolate chip cookies, which were hard and stale. I would still go back for the entrees!

Michael Rock

By far the best sandwich shop. Great quality, gluten free bread and great service.

This is not a place to go if you have any common food allergies. They don't have vegan cheese, they don't have gluten free options. However, assuming you aren't bound in that way, the slices range from good to spectacular. The Detroit Deep Dish is absolutely killer, and their pesto is very tasty as well. If you want to grab an order to go, make sure to park around the corner at the south locust garage.
