Ugh.
Food based on fresh produce (omelette with real eggs, the banana bread is great), all gluten-free.
We arrived around 8:20 a.m., 1st customers in the room.
Very noisy environment, it's even worse in the room than near their counter: noise from fridges and/or air conditioning and/or coffee grinding constantly. The 3 together is unbearable.
High prices, room cleaning not optimal.
The tallest waitress is also the only one who really smiles; the other one seemed annoyed just talking to us. The cook did not respond to our hello.
This cafe offers unique gluten-free dishes like the standout beet dumplings and a delicious sweet potato hash that delights with exceptional flavors. The friendly, accommodating service ensures gluten-free diners receive spot-on recommendations, making it a welcoming spot for those seeking flavorful, nutritious gluten-free options.

In celebration of Black Restaurants Week here in LA, I decided to check out Swift Cafe. Swift Cafe did not disappoint. Having checked out the menu beforehand, the one thing I knew that I was going to order was the Tiramisu smoothie. They have dishes I've never heard of or seen anywhere else (e.g. beet dumplings). It was breakfast time so I ordered the sweet potato hash. OMG...the flavors! It's one of the most affordable menu items and certainly one of the most delicious.
I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the stellar service. The gentleman at the counter was super friendly, chill, and accomodating. My friend who was with me is gluten-free and he was able to make spot-on recommendations for her.
Note: During COVID time they're not serving the full menu. But their current offerings are delicious, nutritious. It was well worth the trip. Can't wait to return and try those beet dumplings.
This vibrant cafe stands out for its exceptional gluten-free pastries, including rare vegan and gluten-free donuts that delight those with dietary restrictions. The lively, welcoming atmosphere complements the highly customizable breakfast sandwiches and unique treats like the green tea donut, making it a go-to spot for gluten-free options. Bold Vietnamese iced coffee adds a distinctive touch to a menu that caters thoughtfully to gluten-free patrons.

Their blueberry matcha is amaaahzing! They also have vegan and gluten-free donuts (not many places have that so this is definitely a gem!!)
A haven for gluten-free diners, this intimate, family-owned spot offers a vibrant ambiance enriched with lush greenery and colorful lights. Their wide variety of gluten-free options, all crafted without soy, ensures flavorful, soulful dishes like lion's mane mushroom ribs and moist cornbread. The dedication to quality, tasty, and health-conscious food makes this a standout destination for those seeking delicious gluten-free soul food in a welcoming setting.

Consistent, delicious, clean food that’s full of flavor and soul! I’m completely gluten free and soy free. I typically avoid Vegan restaurants due to the over influx of soy! Crystals doesn’t use any soy and has a vast array of gluten free item and/or you can make the item gluten free. I order like five items each visit and take orders to go! And I still have more items to explore!!!
I love this family business!
Thank you for your dedication to good health and quality tasty food!!!!
