This was the first time we went to this restaurant and I can’t tell you how lovely the experience was. The energy was calm and soothing, the music old cafe jazz, you could almost feel like you were in a French bistro hole in the wall except for all the Americana pics covering the walls. It felt like coming home. As a person with celiac there are precious few spaces that aren’t dedicated gluten free that are actually safe for us. This is just such a place. We will be going back regularly. Also, lest I forget, both my husband and myself had the Cascadia burger. I had the one patty because 2 is too much, OMG was this ever juicy - and fries!!! I could order great fries without worry 🥰 It was perfect. Thank you to whoever you are who put this place together. I felt cared for.

It’s a tiny place with BIG delicious food! I haven’t had anything there yet that I didn’t love. Excellent gluten-free and vegan food and baked goods! The scones and muffins, etc., are delicious. Definitely don’t skip out on anything maple glazed!

Any chance I get to eat here, I do. My wife is gluten free vegan and there’s abundant choices for her. I really flat out love the food, I have yet to have a bad meal here. Everything tastes awesome and unique. Yeah, it’s a little expensive… but so is everything else out there. Highly recommend!

This was my first time here. I may return but my expectations aren't too high. The group I was with was satisfied with their meals, especially the beignets. They did look very tasty! That being said, I have celiac and am limited in food choices. The person who planned this event chose Octapas because they had gluten free options. Actually there were 2 options. One was huevos rancheros, that is what I chose, hard to mess it up. Boy was I wrong. The good first, the eggs were perfectly cooked and the few bits of cheese were authentic. The not so good, my plate and meal were cold, the beans were strained before putting them on the plate so now were dry(and cold), I swear the sauce - which should be a ranchero sauce with a flavorful Chile taste and aroma- came right out of a can labeled tomato paste. It had some dried green herbs sprinkled on it... and did I mention it was cold. There was no rice or potatoes - as is customary with huevos rancheros. I finished it quickly but left hungry. There is another gluten free options on the menu... I may try it, hope it isn't cold. The server was very attentive and checked on us often. The atmosphere was very nice and we all appreciated the artwork on the walls.
