“ This place has such a cool vibe about it! It’s something you would expect to see in a small town in Vermont. The staff were super cool. It was very clean. I got a club sandwich and it was exceptionally delicious! The bread alone would have made me give this place five stars. The mozzarella bites were really good! ”
“ This place is AWESOME!! Totally a great fit for anyone with food allergies and sensitivities. The staff was so helpful at answering questions about the food, and they were so kind. The food was also good! Pregnant & craving comfort foods, I ordered a pizza & pretzel bites. The fried pretzel bites are TO DIE FOR!! 10/10 must order!! I also got donuts for the next day — they were somewhere inbetween the texture of a fried donut & cake donut, and the icing on them was really good. Go here & enjoy :) ”
“ Hands down my new go-to for GF food. I developed an extremely bad gluten allergy years back and when I moved here, it seemed like there weren’t many options. Pizza, pasta or a sandwich with crumbly bread. When I stumbled upon this place on Yelp, I think I may have ordered half the menu, I just got so excited. They have actual pretzels, that taste the same as the ones I was able to eat before my allergy. I never got to try loaded fries until today and it’s maybe the most amazing thing I’ve ever eaten. I cannot recommend this place enough for GF people & Celiacs. You will not be disappointed at all. Also, the employees were SO kind. I happened to find them kinda late when they were going to close and they stayed opened until I got there and brought me the food out. Probably the kindest service I’ve received in a while! ”
“ The best gluten free food around! Originally visited to just look but the kind staff and food options drew me in. The breading on the food is crispy and doesn't pull off while you're eating. The food came out hot, fresh, and fast. I also got an oatmeal cream pie which was delicious. The portions, flavor, and prices are all very fair for gluten free food. I believe EVERYONE would enjoy eating here. ”
“ I have eaten here 4 times & it is always delicious! My favorite meals are the egg biscuit & the teriyaki chicken. For dessert- the brownie is the best. It’s thick, almost like a cake. So good! It is a bit pricey for me so we can’t come here all the time. But it’s great for a once in a while treat. ”
“ By far the best Gluten free pizza crust I’ve ever tried. The chicken teriyaki (not pictured) was also incredible all for affordable prices. Friendly staff, welcoming vibe. Next time I’ll get the large pizza. Also, most amazing homemade desserts in all of downtown Mesa. ”
“ As a celiac it is refreshing to find a gluten free restaurant near us. The food we had was delicious. Their bread is some of the best I have had. My husband had the fettuccine with chicken which he said was good, we shared the Mozzarella cheese sticks which were crunchy amd tasty and I had a grilled cheese which was good. We got the cinnamon-dough bites to take home but each had one and they were scrumptious. ”
“ Stumbled upon this hidden gem, well not really hidden but we did stumble upon it. A gluten free restaurant and shop in the heart of downtown Mesa. We had to try the fish and chips. We were not disappointed were breaded in corn flower and cooked crispy on the outside and super juicy on the inside. The burger was tasty, they have gluten free buns but I just don't like bread. I will be going back to try some of their tasty looking desserts. ”
