I love this place! The food was well presented, and absolutely delicious! You can taste that the food was made from scratch from the freshness of the spices, giving it a home made feel! The staff were very pleasant and we were lucky to sample some other dishes on the menu. There are gluten free options too. Excited to go back and try more dishes!
Absolutely the most delicious Indian food ever! The spices were amazing, generous portions, and everything on the menu was labeled clearly for allergies, including so many gluten free options. The restaurant is very clean and the service (particularly Edwin) was so fast and extremely helpful. Can’t recommend enough!
Everything is delicious! I am not vegan but I always eat here when I am in chapel hill. The coffee is fantastic. I get a breakfast sandwich and a smoothie every time and I am always impressed. They have lots of gluten free options.
Excellent friendly service. I’m a celiac and they make a great pizza that’s safe for me. Chill upscale bar and pizza place vibe. For me the genuine friendly and attentive service keeps me coming back as well as the GF pizza and wings. Excellent!
As someone recently gluten free, this has become one of my absolute favorite places to go. The staff are so nice, and I have yet to have any symptoms of being glutened! I eat here probably at least once a week, either as takeout or eating in. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable, both in the dining area and the waiting area. My absolute favorites are the pad Thai with chicken and the fried rice with vegetables. 10/10 will continue to go over and over and over!
Corey was a very friendly and good server. I am gluten free so he showed what items wood be good and assured me that they could prepare my choice. He also checked often to see that everyone in my group had what they ordered and the way it was needed.

I am allergic to gluten and they always make me food that is safe for me to eat. They are so kind here and do such a great job! One of my favorites! Their chairs are not very comfortable so bring a cushion if you are like me with chronic pain.
I have Celiac Disease. The restaurant had a gluten free menu. The server was extremely knowledgeable about my options and the food was amazing!!! I highly recommend it to anyone needing a gluten free diet.

We all loved our wings. Sweet potato fries were awesome. Loved that they have dedicated fryers for keeping things gluten free, though not totally safe for those with celiac as my daughter did have a reaction..
I love cava, especially this location, tons of outdoor seating, a great ambiance, and such a great location near all my favorite grocery shops. It’s a great place to grab some food, the food is always hot, and fresh, the service is great, and as far as gluten free options they’ve got plenty!
I went here with my significant other for Valentine’s Day. The food was superb - I loved the lemon and herb on the potatoes - and I was happy that I could easily find gluten free and peanut free items on the menu. Also, we enjoyed the live music. Our server was also knowledgeable and helpful. The only downside was there were a lot of people packed into a small space and it was pretty loud - but I can see why so many people would want to be here!
Best bacon mushroom swiss burger ever, tatertots unbelievable too with garlic aioli. Paired with ice cold mexican coke. So juicy and mouthwatering. I live an hour away, I would drive that far for this burger and they do Gluten-free. The fact I am still talking about the burger. Omg. Yummmm. Eyes back of head roll yummmm.
Don’t go here if you have a gluten allergy. My gf’s dish was supposed to be gluten free but was most likely cross contaminated so she got sick anyway. Prices are super high for how small the tacos (16.99 for 3 baby tacos??) are and they really aren’t that good. I think the decor fools people here. Not coming back.
Great food! They offer gluten-free bread for sandwiches, and most of their meats (aside from the bologna, which is shared fryer) are gluten-free. Tastes great. Good portions. Friendly vibe, great staff. Not a long wait, just a somewhat small establishment, so everyone hears everyone else's conversations. The good thing about the size though, is that you get to eat with your eyes.
Would love to eat here again!
we had a large party of twelve reservation, and they were so accommodating. everyone found something delicious on the menu, even with gluten free and vegan limitations. service was excellent and food was both delicious and beautiful. very gourmet. very elegant.
Food was outstanding. Very fresh ingredients used. So flavorful. Loved that their are glutenfree options. Had a delicious chicken rice bowl with a Mexican coke. Was in the neighborhood again on Sunday to visit but was disappointed it was closed. Don't let the shared gas station fool ya! Parking is limited.
This place is blesphemously delicious. I want to eat there every day. I have a relatively strict diet (gluten free, dairy free, sugar free) and Pho Happiness checks all the boxes, and at a fair price with delicious, fresh food that even my children love to eat. My all time favorite restaurant right now.
So friendly and welcoming. This was my first time visiting and I'll definitely be back. Heard good things about their gluten-free crust and it did not disappoint. Paired it with a nice red wine - what a great casual experience with food that seems expensive!
Forgot to take photos of our appetizer and entrées but EVERYTHING we had was delicious. We started with the Mezze Platter which included some of the best Patlıcan Ezmesi (Smokey eggplant dip) I’ve ever had. I’m gluten free, but my husband and daughter raved about the fresh, hot, crusty bread served with our meal. I had the lamb shank special of the evening which fell off the bone and was superb. My husband enjoyed his Adana Kebabi and daughter had the Balik Böregi, also delicious.
For dessert we had Turkish coffee and shared the Kazan Dibi and Crème Chocolate. And on top of all the great food, the Turkish decor and ambiance added to the evening.
One comment on the service, this was a very busy restaurant, the staff (family?) were stretched thin. Definitely a place to enjoy a relaxing, leisurely dinner with good company.
Massimo took such great care of us last night! I’m gluten-free so I checked the menu online prior and saw they had gluten free pasta, but to my surprise they additionally had gluten free bread, meatballs, brussel sprouts, and almond cake! It was so delicious, we will be back!
Dustin went out of his way to make sure my sub was perfect. He made my gluten-free sub taste like a normal sub which is hard to do. Friendly and clean store!
Service is always great, store is always clean. Food comes out quickly and delicious. No complaints!!! Been here multiple times over the past year. They have gluten free buns for burgers.
Super yummy! Big, greasy, cheesy burger... yummy, healthy, robust salad... and the gluten free bun was delicious! My partner and I got Gov's as carryout for a staycation date night. We each got a burger, and split the superfood salad, and it was perfect. We will definitely be going back for seconds!
Solid bowl option but nothing special to push it over the top to 5 stars. I left feeling still kinda hungry but the food itself was delicious. My friend got a make your own bowl which looked significantly larger than my menu selection. Many good gluten free and allergen friendly options.
I had a wonderful experience all around—great food, service, and atmosphere. We sat in on the patio and was very comfortable. The hosts and servers were all super friendly and knowledgeable. We liked how the menu was structured, such that we could choose either small plates or a dinner entree depending upon our hunger level. The plates were beautifully presented with very bright colors. We loved the pork belly arepa and the budino for dessert! Appreciated that there were lots of gluten free options!
Six of us got takeout from Rasa Indian and Japanese Restaurant in Chapel Hill. I appreciated the care that went into preparing the online menu and the way it specified options: vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy, etc. The fellow that took our order over the phone was polite regarding our questions and he accommodated our requests. I don't like hot spicy food, so I asked for my order to be mildly spiced and that's what I got. We each thought the food was delicious. We will definitely be going back. Nice experience all the way around.
