DELICIOUS!!! The flavor was mouthwatering! TOTALLY GLUTEN FREE TOO! First time I’ve had a quesadilla on a small tortilla in years no dining out.
Highly recommended.
Great 100% gluten free spot! It is also raw and vegan, so it does not have the most traditional meals and desserts but they are still very yummy. I enjoyed the various raw desserts we ordered and my cashew cheese quesadilla.
Evolution is a true gem for anyone seeking exceptional plant-based cuisine. As someone who values both vegan and gluten-free options, I was glad to discover this restaurant that offers both. The kitchen clearly takes pride in making everything fresh from scratch, and you can absolutely taste the difference in every bite.
While the interior seating is limited, the atmosphere actually adds to the charm of the dining experience. The staff are knowledgeable about the ingredients and care about ensuring every guest has a great meal.
Don’t skip dessert! Their gluten-free vegan desserts are absolutely divine and prove that dietary restrictions don’t mean sacrificing your indulgences. Evolution has mastered the art of creating delicious, wholesome food that happens to be vegan.
Highly recommend for vegans, those with gluten sensitivities, and really anyone who appreciates freshly prepared food. I plan to be returning soon! Enjoy eating more plant based foods.

BEWARE. The Gluten Free (GF) Labels on the menu mean GF options available for that dish, NOT that the dish is gluten free. Talk to your server about your order.
I was excited when seeing the GF labels all over the menu, especially when seeing that most of those dishes involved pita bread. Sadly after talking to the bartender I learned that their pita is (obviously) not GF. Their rice pilaf also has soy sauce in it, so do not just assume the dish is GF even though they are labeled GF. Service was great and the food was good. Pricey, but normal for the gaslamp area and it was very tasty.

We loved Puesto!! I have a tomato and gluten allergy which is often tough at Mexican restaurants, but our server was super helpful and accommodating! The meal was some of the best Mexican food we’ve had, highly recommend!!

They have some delicious gluten reduced beers. They limit tasters to 2 at a time. Wish they offered a full test flight. They also don’t fill growlers. Prices are decent though so it’s worth buying in cans. Really cool space that’s great for families or just a couple buddies.
Great place for eating gluten free. Menu has gluten free items clearly marked. When I asked about adding a pro my salad, server made sure I understood that all their proteins are grilled (no breading or coating) so no gluten goes on the grill.
Love that this spot has healthy options and includes whether or not items on the menu are gluten free and dairy free. They also have a lot meals catered towards high protein.
From the outside looking in it looked very elegant and nice but once inside it's a mass of chatter and some tables even yelling to just have a simple conversation. It's an open atrium, so naturally that allows flying critters to accompany your meal. You could not have a nice quiet dinner. The menu has limited gluten free options but some are available but as with any place the possibility of cross contamination is always a possibility. Our server was very polite and knowledgeable with the menu options. Food was slow to come out but tasted very good.
It was our 21st anniversary so the wife and I decided to go someplace with a nice view that was a bit more expensive FOR US, than normal.
I was a bit annoyed to start when all the parking was taken while the valet spots had many many spots available. I realize it’s only $10 plus tip but when you save for a fancy meal, you should anticipate that. The staff let me know that rarely happens. But it did happen to me.
Once we got to our seats it was worth it. The view is gorgeous. The food was pretty good in that our carne asada was extremely tender. Must’ve been a great cut of meat. Upscale Mexican is not quite the same for me when we live by so many good Mexican places. But for a tourist, I’m sure it’s perfect.
Beyond the view I felt our waiter was the best part of the meal. His name was Matthew. He was patient with us and very helpful with the gluten free items since I have celiac disease. (I didn’t get sick btw)
He was nice and as talkative as we wanted. We never felt rushed and we actually appreciated how he went out of his way to assure us to tarry. Our dessert was nice and the cafe moto coffees were excellent.
If I were a bit more wealthy and not a pastor, we would probably visit even more.
Was skeptical coming here as I thought it was only a Vegan place, however some of their food can be made to be vegan or gluten free. The Carne Asada was flavorful in the big breakfast burrito. My favorite thing was the Vegan Horchata Latte. I will be dreaming about that drink until the next time I come back to San Diego to visit.
Decent Mexican food! Certainly have a few gluten-free options which is nice, however do be careful as certain things are not listed as either gluten-free or not and it can be very easy to get glutened.
Birthday dinner and I was so happy and impressed. Delicious food, great, friendly service and most importantly I have to eat gluten free and I had options. Hands down recommend this place. They even brought me over a birthday shot, thank you!
I honestly was not expecting much from this place but I was so surprised. This was probably one of the best places I've ever eaten in my entire life. Even more so is there than most educated I've ever seen a restaurant with food allergies. They knew exactly what cross-contamination was and being Celiac this was the easiest place to eat on earth. I had the crab stuffed salmon. As somebody who has white level of spicy I was a little bit nervous to order this. Just had the perfect amount of space and the portion was so filling. Normally when you order Seafood you leave hungry but I was so content. I actually would have licked the plate clean. I'd do some sketchy shit for this plate. The flan was also very good but small for the portion size.
I’ve been here before but this was least favorite experience. It’s gone downhill each year I try it. The service was incredibly slow and we couldn’t even get the check to leave. Food was subpar and if you have a gluten or wheat allergy- the food is heavily cross contaminated. I would not eat here with allergies.
Is it overpriced? Yes. But for heaven sakes, it's an airport! ALL food options are overpriced. At least Qdoba offers some fresh, yummy, nutritious, gluten friendly (not celiac) choices. The burrito bowl is by far the best, as it's super customizable, you get way more than what can fit in a tortilla, it's not messy to eat, and most importantly when flying, it's filling without being heavy or "lavatory" inducing.
Gluten free options are available, just had to ask the waiter. Almost everything on the menu can be made Gluten free. The food was delicious, staff were accommodating and the atmosphere was fun!
Fast service, a little too fast. Food was great and had a ton of gluten free options - staff is also knowledgeable for celiac. The Coco Pina Margarita was delish, but way way too much ice and such a small glass.
Had the best service today! I have a gluten allergy and they went above and beyond as always. Great food! I have been there several times without getting sick!

Ordered a Chillaxin (house tequila “gluten free” infused with cucumbers, agave, served over ice) and a Spicy Jalisco Mule (house tequila “gluten free”, lime juice, agave serrano syrup, ginger beer). Then we had 2-3 shots of Don Julio. Also we shared 2 orders of Empanada Poppers (fresh corn masa, spicy cream cheese, avocado tomatillo salsa), Spicy Adobo Wings (chipotle, citrus, pineapple glaze - this stuff was so spicy) and finally Pollo Asado Nachos (creamy queso, pico de gallo, sour cream, guacamole, black beans, pickled jalapeños). Everything was great just a bit pricey but the service was fantastic!
My husband and I ate here for the first time the other day and loved it. The owners were very kind and made us feel at home. They were very accommodating with my gluten allergy and made sure to be careful with the food prep. I had chicken tacos and my husband had a burrito. Both meals were healthy, delicious and prepared quickly. We're excited to visit again soon!
A nice quiet place for lunch.
We had the cha cha garlic noodles, which are always good
Inzane burger with gluten-free bun and sweet potato fries
Garlic fries, too
The burger was very good. Bun was good. For the price, however, the burger was tiny. The ranch, which I was charged extra for, was amazingly bad, and the sweet potato fries were fine but would have been eaten and maybe even enjoyed had there been real ranch or good ranch.
This was the most expensive burger I have ever had once you add in the bun and fries and ranch. Not worth that.
This restaurant is definitely not good for gluten-free people.
There are so many tasty looking dishes, but the majority have gluten, so I have no reason to come back.
Servers were very kind and friendly.
My kids love to eat here but this place is grungy. Every time I go in I’m repulsed by how filthy it is. The quality of food at this location is also not fantastic. I once got a salad here with slimy lettuce and sparse toppings. Tonight we went and I usually don’t order anything for myself because I am very gluten and dairy sensitive and I don’t trust them to make the food correctly - I reiterated several times that there must be no dairy of any kind and that I would appreciate them changing their gloves etc so I don’t get sick. Of course they brought my food out with cheese on it (this is not a first which is why I normally order nothing for myself) - this is after being reassured by the cashier she would “let the cooks know” which I am sure never happened. They need way better training about food allergies and they need to put some elbow grease into cleaning this place up!!
Great food! Great drinks! Great View! They worked with us to make their birria tacos gluten- and dairy-free to accommodate one of us. And the wahoo tacos were amazing!
Here's something new for my taste buds... Delicious and beautiful Moroccan and Mexican flavor fusion! We were craving something Mediterranean and tacos at the same time and this popped up on Google! No reservation needed and gluten free options were appreciated 👍
Delicious! We stumbled upon the great little taco shop after visiting the gluten-free bakery next door. We ordered a burrito with beef, chicken and shrimp and scarfed it down!
My neighborhood favorite. The breakfast especially is delicious and all the food is definitively authentic. You can eat your whole plate until you're full and regardless, will not feel heavy.
Gluten free options galore. Celiac safe / celiac friendly.
Ate there for a late lunch. Open air dining. Multiple games on. Music kind of loud. Service was friendly. Food was tasty. My wife is gluten-free and was able to find multiple options she could eat. My street tacos had really good flavor.
There were seven of us eating and we all had different items the flavor was good and the price was right. However if you're gluten free or have those types of allergies you may be hard-pressed to figure out what's okay to eat at this spot, because the staff is unable to advise what the ingredients are.
The location is good right in the middle of Mission Beach a block from the beach so walking the boardwalk or watching the waves while shopping is all very close to this place.
Great food, the service was great and our server was super knowledgeable about which items were gluten free. There are only four designated items, but the carne asada was delicious.
