Oryza has become a staple of our Asian food expeditions whenever the desire arises. The primary reason is my wife has Celiac’s and therefore must avoid gluten. Oryza fortunately uses corn based flour, not wheat. This wizardy allows food allergen victims to be able to eat from their diverse menu. Their food preparation is excellent. The atmosphere is chill. The service is fantastic. We’ve had only 1 negative experience and noticed that same server was not employed there for much longer. ANYWAYS- this is a great place for Asian cuisine. The owner is always friendly and recognizes us when we visit.

A friend suggested this place because they have gluten-free crepes. We had to go! The gentleman who greeted us right away made us feel at ease and he directed us to a table while we looked over the menues. I ordered jasmine tea, which came in a beautiful little cup and pitcher. We decided to split two crepes, the Ratatouille and the L'Ocean (smoked salmon). Both looked amazing and tasted even better! Flavor, texture, and presentation were a "10"! Sadly, we didn't save room for a dessert crepe, which we decided we'd have to come back for again. If the GF crepes were that delicious, I'd wager their regular crepes are outstanding. Definitely check this cute place out!

Kindred is a casual café with delicious breakfast, brunch or lunch 100% gluten free. As celiac, it is rare to have the possibility to choose anything from the menu without cross-contamination. This is the only place in Iowa city with a 100% GF kitchen. Additionally, I loved the vibe of the place: young and casual.

My wife and I had a wonderful evening here for NYE! Food and wine pairings were phenomenal and we enjoyed discussing French wine with the owner. They have a wide variety of options for Gluten Free on their menu and all the food we tried was delicious. We will be back!
