Beef Empanadas are amazing! Like a sweet corn dog with delicious shredded beef. Also loved the chicken Arepas with avocado and mayo and cilantro. Authentic Venezuelan food! Also love that most all is gluten free!

Lovely atmosphere, creative energy, and good strawberry matcha. Wallace, Adel, and all of the baristas are fantastic. They also carry vegan and gluten free pastries from my favorite local bakery!

Delicious food! Tough to find parking nearby. It’s all either private or paid, so be prepared to park and walk a bit, or pay for a parking lot. We ordered online and only after getting there realized that what we had ordered for my wife wasn’t gluten free. They were so kind and remade her meal with a gluten free option at no extra charge. The food was great and we’ll definitely be coming back!

Rumor has it that if you get there at 4 am and wait in line you “might” get bbq because they could run out. I was pretty happy to escape the line and the time commitment with a take out order. It’s on the website and takes a little planning as they don’t usually have last minute availability. Just because it’s amazing bbq…that’s why. They’re featured on a Netflix show and regularly make it to the top of the list of best bbq places in Texas. Hannah was very thoughtful about gluten and made me a bag of gf items. The espresso sauce has gluten in it. Thank you!

Love this place so much. Have been enjoying this spot for years and love the food. Big shout out to the gluten free options they always keep on the menu. The lil Remi coffee is the best. Staff is friendly and a delight to interact with.
