Did you know Culver's has Gluten Free Buns? So happy about that! As for the young people that were working, they all were great, but a Shout Out to Alexis and Maddox for helping me!

Our server Stout was wonderful! I asked for a gluten free salad and once they gave me my salad they told me that the cooks made it on a separate grill so there was no cross contamination, 5 stars! Thanks!

I can not have gluten and eating out can be a nightmare because of cross contamination. When I went in and asked for the gf bread they made sure everything they used was completely wiped down, changed their gloves, and put the bread on paper to make sure no cross contamination could happen. Definitely going back!!

My daughter has a gluten allergy & they have a burger with a gluten free bun that is wonderful! I love the sandwiches on the menu when we go there as well. The staff are very friendly, helpful, and also very attentive to my daughter's allergy. Would absolutely recommend eating here with or without a gluten allergy, and for the friendliness of the staff & we love the atmosphere! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Really loved coming here after ages being away. It was nice eating out after being home for weeks. It's a mostly gluten restaurant but they helped accommodate my allergies and found that the potatoes were okay for me and the salads were safe without croutons and a vinaigrette. I really appreciate the workers fun attitudes and the easy going atmosphere. Loved the experience

I really enjoy going here. They offer gluten free rice noodles. Tell them you have an allergy and they do their best to keep your food on the grill, safe from contacting others' foods. Tons of options, Diff noodle options, choices for meats, veggies and sauces. AND The Lunch prices are an amazing value! Love eating here.

Have enjoyed La Mesa for many years. Fajita Nachos was awesome & enough for 2 meals at least! I am gluten-free & my mother is low sodium. They serve many dishes using corn shells which resolves my issues, but would like to see more than a salad for low sodium options. A plain burger with no seasoning is what she usually can get, but we did not see this here, although the salad was filling for her, just no protein option.

Zaltes is by far the best ice cream shop I’ve been to. The ice cream is homemade and holds a variety of flavors. The items are clearly marked if a flavor contains gluten, dairy, or nuts. The owner is extremely nice and welcoming. I would highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for a well priced high quality treat.
