Both the gluten free and cauliflower crust were amazing!

This gluten free crust is amazing!!! It’s thin, but not crispy. There’s a chew to it that reminds me of regular crust. The server talked to me about how the staff wear gloves, prepare the pizzas in a separate area, and bake it in a pan so it doesn’t touch any flour in the oven. I will be going back the next time I’m in the area! Fantastic

No MSG No Garlic Foodie

This was the top search result from Google when I searched for 'gluten free' and 'vegan'. My friend with Celiac Disease would not do well here – no gluten free bread. There were many items with garlic, and since I am garlic sensitive, I was forced to break my eczema prevention no wheat diet. We ordered BLTAs and I added cracked cheese (I expected a vegan cheese slice) but it was like mushed cream cheese which made my sandwich thick, soggy and messy to eat. I was very impressed with the tofu bacon, so we came back three more times. I tried the Coachella Forever and Mini Greens salada. The key lime dessert was apparently very delicious. They have fridges and freezers full of take-away items, and a pantry shelves full of Japanese flavours and I really want to take some home with me. I bought the mango lime dressing, but it started sweating after three days, so I ended up throwing most of the jar away. We bought a blueberry pie, by it wasn't like a real pie, so we threw half of that away as well. BLTA is the only item we like and we will come back for it, the levain sour dough was chewy and I enjoy the tofu bacon a lot. If they offered gluten free bread or even use Vietnamese rice wrap on the sandwiches for a gluten free option, we would have eaten here many more times.

My daughter is gluten sensitive, and we ordered the cauliflower crust, OMG. Would continue to eat this crust if all pizzas were made this way.

They do have a vegan option, but it comes with a side of anti-vegan attitude. I came across this place while on a trip to the mall with the family. I asked the host if the veggie pasta was vegan, and he went to check with the kitchen. When he came back, his response was, “it should be.” I decided to still give this place a try and confirm with our waitress if they had any vegan options, and she responded that she “thought” the veggie pizza was. I asked more specifically if the crust had milk or eggs, and she replied that the gluten-free crust didn’t, but then proceeded to add with an attitude that they had so many more items on the menu. At first, I thought I had misunderstood it, but a family member also pointed that out as soon as she left. Once the pizza arrived, it had cheese on it. I’m still giving this place 3 stars as the waitress that brought the pizza was very quick to understand the mistake and have the pizza be replaced, and even went to the extent of bringing the label of the gluten-free crust to make sure it didn’t have milk or eggs. Also, the veggie pizza with the gluten-free crust tasted really good. The ambiance was upbeat with all the TVs streaming sports. But I wouldn’t recommend this place to vegans given my overall experience.

Carson's Cookie Co.

The establishment features an outdoor patio with misters; the staff were friendly and provided a wide selection of food, including gluten-free options. While my chile relleno was satisfactory, the rice and beef were dry. The beans were flavorful, and the fajita burrito was excellent. Although somewhat pricey, the generous portions of rice and beans compensated. I would consider dining there again.

I didn't realize this restaurant was open to the public and when I found it in the neighborhood of Hwy-74 at the end of Ironwood street, I was thrilled. It has a very pleasant tropical ambiance, much different than other golf courses I've visited. The people were all having a great time with a familiar vibe throughout. And the food was AMAZING!! The chef even prepares gluten-free options for special dietary needs! I'd highly recommend the shrimp tacos, they were fantastic! And the Happy Hour menu is great, very reasonable prices and lasts everyday from 3-6. I will definitely be back with more friends. And the nighttime entertainment is great! We found a gem in the desert....

Lunch diner where the Chef’s pride of ownership shines through. Shared the (gluten free) shortrib all day omelette with a side of fruit…DELICIOUS! Chef even plated it separately for us. Friendly staff and patrons. Great value!
