Meh my experience was mid. When Arrived the sign said to seat yourself so my boyfriend and his grandparents and I chose a table near the patio door. A server passed by and pretty rudely asked if we talked to the host I was about to tell her about the sign but she quickly and loudly said we have to see a host and stormed outside. Then another gentleman came over right after and gave us menus and I told him what the sign said. The day who spoke to us first became our server and realized we were handed gluten free menus, which we are not. The rest of the service was a lot better I think they felt bad. Overall its very loud im there, not really a place to get to talk to family. And the food was okay nothing exciting
We came here for the gluten free pasta options and it did not disappoint. All of our food was amazing. 10/10 recommend!!! Don’t sleep on this restaurant
This place was absolutely amazing! They had the best gluten free pancakes I have ever had. And the service was great! All the employees were extremely helpful to us. They also toasted my bread in a pan so I had no cross contamination. I appreciate that extra mile they went for my peace of mind. And they were very busy and still accommodated that for me.
Picked up a delivery here and they went out of their way to make sure my customer got her gluten free soy sauce, small detail during a rush but it makes a big difference, thanks!
this place is fantastic ! the waiter was very knowledgeable and the menu clearly states what is gluten free. they have so many options!
all waffles are gluten free and delicious. I will be back for sure!
I've been coming here for over a month and I have yet to try anything I didn't like. I never expected a coffee shop to have much to offer for breakfast beyond a decent pastry or two, however I was pleasantly suprised with their breakfast burritos. The fillings are seasoned so well! Their gluten items are delicious, especially thier pumpkin breakfast bars. I always show up right when they open and the staff is wide awake and friendly every time. Such a wonderful experiance!
An absolute must for paleo and gluten free folks. If you eat clean this is a wonderful place with so many options, even nice cream and shakes! The ambiance is soothing and welcoming.
So many Gluten Free options! It was a delight to be able to dine without worrying about what I could eat. There was even a delicious cheese bread option! The variety of meats was astounding and the food just kept on coming! A great spot for date night!
Food was good but order was messed up with a gluten allergy but they brought the bacon out with toast on the same plate. Smoothies were not that great. Rest of our party said their food was great.
I went to Broken Yolk in California because it has good gluten free options for my sister. Then I saw a mailer advertising it here in Mesa. Anyway, I decided to take friends of mine that were visiting from out of town, and boy was I proud of my selection. The wait staff was sweet, went out of their way to be helpful, and the food was spectacular! There were 4 of us, so 4 different meals, and each of our dishes was so great, that we all shared bites of eachothers meals. I love Monte Cristo's, but i've struggled to find one done well outside of Disneyland. Now my search is over, the Broken Yolk has succeeded! As I said though, each of our meals was wonderful. I plan on making them one of my staple restaurants to go out to with friends and family!
Dining area is very loud, if you're want to have a decent conversation, opt for bar seating. We had 2 people with food allergies, dairy and gluten. Neither were able to eat much on the menu, other than meat and a pared down salad. Even some of the meat entrees weren't able to be cooked without butter. Our waitress was very attentive before our food got there, probably to cover the fact that it took so long. Once we were served, we never saw her again. We didn't get some of our sides, and actually had to hunt someone down to get our bill. This was on a Wednesday night at 7, not a particularly busy time.
They accommodate those with gluten free diets nicely. Awesome sandwiches, great desserts. Staff is wonderful and helpful. We went with someone elderly and they were also very patient. :-)
Fried chicken is moist, well cooked and seasoned. French fries were mushy. Bacon Chicken Ranch sandwich “in a bowl” is translated as salad and my bacon was translated into bacon bits. Huge disappointment. Hard to be gluten free here. Side of buffalo sauce cost $1.50.
Had a great time at Pacino’s tonight! Had the gluten free pasta which was delicious and even got to sing a few songs at karaoke. Great crowd and very friendly bartender Chrissi. Owner was great and checked on me and my order too.
Gluten friendly/gluten free menu available. Lettuce wrap option only for sandwiches and burgers. Several entree options available with meat: chicken, pork, ribs, steak, etc.
I chose the ribs with baked beans and spaghetti squash and it was all OK. Ribs came cold and seemed to have more BBQ suace than meat. Spaghetti squash comes with Marinara that tastes like sugar, would have liked a different option I wanted a vegetable not a make shift pasta side. Baked beans were the best part.
Husband got the pork and liked his dish, and enjoyed his baked potato and sugar snap peas.
Reservation recommended for popular times and days.
Just ordered 2 hummus wraps, gluten free. One tortilla was hard, couldn't chew it. One had hummus only on one side, and neither had any veggies other than lettuce and tomatoes. We ordered avacado on them, and there was a TINY sliver on each. Won't be returning.
Decent breakfast spot. Very loud. Long wait on the weekend unless you get there early. For whatever reason they do not know how to properly cook potatoes or toast bread. If you want your potatoes cooked or your bread properly toasted you must ask for it “well done” or “extra crispy”. They do have vegan and gluten free options and a seasonal menu that changes.
Took my niece out to breakfast. The food was good, service was good the food didn't come out at the same time and waited a little long for my gluten free toast which was strange. But all I all we had a good experience we drove a little out of our way to eat here.

In my experience the staff were not very knowledgeable and their list of what was gluten free in the store did not match what it said online. I also had to ask to see the gluten free menu they have behind the counter because nothing is labeled on the main menu. I ordered the California bowl because it felt like the lowest risk of cross contamination. It was good, and I didn’t get sick, but I don’t know that I would go back here.
One of the best Mexican food serving restaurant. Chips, salsa, potato tacos, and smoked chicken enchiladas were outstanding. Overall, a well maintained restaurant with great customer service. I would certainly stop here for a meal if visiting the area in future. Gluten-free and vegetarian options are available.
Food is great and gluten-free friendly, but portions can be a bit small.
It's been packed every time we go and seemingly the waiting staff spread thin (open tables but no seating) so we've always sat at the bar. Service is great once you get it.
Unfortunately, though there's are tons of windows, all there is to look at is a parking lot and a freeway. Not much of a "watch".
All that said, prices are comparable to IHOP and Dennys with better service and atmosphere, so we prefer First Watch.

My new favorite place!!! We stopped by a day for a quick bite to eat & have been back weekly since!! The food is delicious, the NA beer is my favorite!! (Lagunitas) & the staff is super friendly! Tyler is the absolute best! He’s super knowledgeable of the menu, ingredients, etc. He’s incredibly helpful with all of our dietary restrictions. The gluten free crust they have is hands down the best we’ve ever had!!
I really like this place great breakfast if you can get there before it ends and they have GLUTEN FREE BREAD for sandwiches. They also have coffee and green chile. The prices are reasonable and food quality is good!
Delicious fresh cooked New Mexican food. It's not covered in green chili but had great flavor. I have had steak enchiladas and today tried seafood enchiladas, and both can be done gluten-free. Rice and beans missing flavor. Husband got Enchanted Trail meal and liked the steak an enchiladas, but not as big of a fan of the twice baked potato in a chili.
Chips are NOT gluten free and items overall are limited that you can order, but if you like enchiladas you are set! Margaritas are good here.
Sorry, I took a few bites before taking the pic, I waited over 30 minutes for food. Must have a reservation! They are always sooo busy!
I came here on the recommendation of my fellow celiac. She said the gluten free waffles are great & she has never had issues. I came here on 2/13 with family & asked about the GF waffles. The server said that it would be a wait since they have one waffle maker & it gets cleaned for a gluten free waffle order. I said fantastic. No issues waiting.
All of our food came out very quickly, including the GF waffle. I mentioned how quick it was & was told that very few waffles had been made that morning so it was quick to do the order.
Everyone enjoyed their food, & the service was good. When we were walking out, I started having pain & had to rush home due to gluten contamination. I now doubt they cleaned the waffle maker.
So a warning to those with celiac disease- be wary of getting the waffles.
Caralayne was exceptionally good!! Best server we have ever had... we come here often for the gluten free "pancake mix" waffle & truly appreciate her courteous & helpful attitude...
I'm gluten free, so ordered the brisket. To die for! Best BBQ sauce I've ever tasted. My husband had a burrito and he said it was the best burrito he's ever had. Hand made tortillas that he said was light and tasty.
The food at 5 R Chai Thai Bistro is of high quality, and there are even delicious options for those like myself with gluten free needs. The staff are always friendly and the service is consistently high quality. We enjoy dining here regularly!
My server Jorge was super kind and he made sure me and my family understood everything and this location made Gluten free waffles when they usually only have gluten free pancakes.
Delicious chicken sandwich and burgers and they even have gluten free buns. The dipping sauces are yummy and service was fast and friendly. Love this place and we will definitely be back.
We drove across Mesa in search of yummy gluten-free pancakes/waffles 🥞🧇.
I didn't know it was going to be so difficult to find a decent tasty place for breakfast!
They got us seated right away and the staff were really nice. We were able to order fairly quickly.
Our food came out approximately 20 minutes after ordering.
Oh boy, was I looking forward to good tasting 🥞 🥓 🍳 .
The (2) pancakes 🥞 were approximately 5" in diameter and 1/2" to 3/4" in thickness. Unfortunately, they did NOT taste good. They were clearly too thick and tasted raw, but more than that, it had a raw Bisquick taste. That's not what I was looking for☹️.
I do not recommend this establishment for gluten-free pancakes.
(I've been trying to avoid IHOP, even though I love the cakey taste of their pancakes) because some Ihop's do not offer the gf pancakes, and I don’t want to be accidentally glutened.
Also, the price to get 2 pancakes, bacon, and eggs came out to $18.25 plus tax. For that price, the food, yes, even the gluten-free food, should taste good!!
