When it comes to good food, it doesn’t take much to influence me. I saw a post/rave yesterday about JoyFull Bites Cafe and I just knew it was going to be good. I quickly made my way over and ordered the weekly special, which happened to be tostadas. I swear I could eat a tostado a day and be a happy man. I only had a 10 minute drive home, but it seemed like it took forever. I called my wife and told her I was bringing lunch home. Within minutes of arriving home, we were already digging in.
The tostadas were absolutely perfect in every single way. The flavors were incredible, especially that jalapeño ranch. The tostada shell itself was still nice and crunchy, even after a 10 minute drive with all the ingredients stacked on top.
Those ingredients were:
•Grass fed taco meat
•Organic black beans
•Colby jack goat cheese
•Shredded romaine
•House made salsa fresca
•House made jalapeño ranch
•Avocado mash.
I can’t recommend this dish enough. They also had tons of delicious looking treats, although I resisted. It was hard, but I turned the other cheek lol.
If you haven’t stopped by yet, make your way over and find out how good their stuff really is. Everything is gluten free by the way!!!
I have enjoyed every time I've been here! I always get their chips and queso! I also enjoy their burgers with the gluten-free buns, definitely a solid option for those of us with dietary restrictions. Service has always been good, clean facilities, and good food too!
I really enjoyed this little hidden gem. While there are a few things in would improve, the environment was great. It was clean and the staff was nice. I even had a gluten free waffle. That’s something that’s hard to come by in some areas. I will be back when I’m in town
I recently got diagnosed with celiac disease, I googled gluten free restaurants and BJ restaurant was one of the choices. This gluten free stuff is all new to me. My husband and I have never been to this restaurant. We were seated immediately and the waiter Nick was very nice and knowledgeable. He brought me a gluten free menu that I could look at. I chose the cheeseburger and it came with a gluten-free bun. Let me tell you that this was the BEST burger I ever ate. I couldn't eat the fries so I had a side salad. A meal of it's own lol also very delicious. THEN Nick suggested a gluten free cookie with Ice cream. OMG! the best cookie ever. I was expecting our meal to be around $50-$60 but it was only $40. Great meal at a reasonable price. Great job Nick and BJ's!
I really love this coffee place. I needed coffee so I decided to stop here, because the chain coffee shops ingredients almost always give me a headache. I’m happy to say that I felt good all day after drinking coffee from the foundry and no headaches at all. I also really enjoyed the gluten free banana bread. My daughter loved it also. The employees were so friendly. We will definitely be back.
This restaurant serves fresh, hot, delicious breakfast, brunch, and lunch items. We were placed on the waiting list as soon as we arrived and we waited 2-3 minutes before being seated. Nice cafe feel, with healthier options. They have sourdough, wheat, and even gluten free bread. The lettuce was a nice spring mix. I ordered the sandwich and soup combo. Their tomato basil soup was hot and tasty. The half sandwich was huge and filling. Nice place to go relax and eat. Although the service is fast and healthy, there is no rush to eat and leave.
Customer service is incredible, Trystan and Lydia helped me figure out exactly what I could have to eat with my gluten allergy. 10/10 would recommend!!!
This was our second time here and we had another great experience. I am gluten free and they had several options for me. My husband loved the food he ordered. A big reason we had a great experience was our server Savannah! She was attentive, knowledgeable, caring, and funny. Thank you Savannah!
The atmosphere is great. The place is fairly well decorated and landscaped.
Service was good, no complaints.
Cocktails were very good, probably some of the best I've had in Tyler.
Food was good.
There are several options for those who eat gluten free. They are marked right on the regular menu.
Everything was absolutely perfect. Atmosphere, service, food, and everything in between exceeded our expectations. My husband and I celebrated our anniversary, with fresh flowers on the table & a personalized menu which was such a thoughtful touch! They accommodated our gluten allergy (even had an employee run to the store to grab GF bread for our appetizer) & everything was delicious. We had the whipped feta (outstanding and beautiful), the Cesar salad (best salad I’ve ever had), the filet (cooked to perfection), Brussels (absolutely mouth watering), puréed potatoes (so yummy), and lobster mac (obviously not GF, but my husband said it was delicious). The sides are big enough to share, so keep that in mind! The virgin Bloody Mary and Hidden Garden mocktail were both so good. Estevian even left us a hand written thank you card and provided outstanding service. Seriously cannot recommend this place enough, and we can’t wait to come back! (As an aside, this probably isn’t a place to bring small children, so mom and dad will look forward to the next sans-kid meal to share here!)
