The bar seems like the highlight of the place. I can't say it was the cleanest, but the food was good. As someone who is gluten free and afraid of getting sick at pizza places, this was a success. It tastes good (as good as gluten free pizza can get) and was safe. I had the cauliflower crust.
My Burma surprised me! Lots of gluten free options and a knowledgeable wait staff! Each dish was flavorful and well balanced. Mango chicken, peppered lamb, pad Thai, and pineapple fried rice were all delicious!
a very nice staff member, zach, chatted with us then offered us spread. my friend asked for it in a cup, and it was delivered. then, we asked if the spread was gluten free (my friend is celiac). zach checked if it was gluten free (it is!) but the spread in the cup was made by a spatula that touched a bun. zach then got us spread in a packet. zach did all this while being kind and friendly. give zach a raise!
It's not fancy, but the poke is good. We did have a little trouble with one order that was supposed to be adjusted to be gluten free. The guy who took the order said he would leave off the fake crab but the guy who actually made it did not take it off. If you are a sensitive celiac person, you'll need to be careful. But most of the time I can't even get gluten free poke around here.
It pains me to write a review of this nature but I refuse to remain silent. Long story short, I have been to this establishment multiple times over the past couple of years. I have gone with my mom, my mom and friends, my second cousin, and with a friend on my most recent visit. Each of these times, Tasia (spelling?) has sort of snubbed us. However, when either my mom and/or I go with friends that frequent the restaurant multiple times per week (usually), we are treated like we "belong." This is very sad. I told our friends the other day that I will not go there unless I go with them as long as ownership stays the same. It's very sad and inexcusable. Every single customer should be treated the same way. The above being said, Tiffany, Steven, and our waiter this last time (Josh) are awesome! Top notch!! Cool people! The pork loin was very fatty this last time and the female owner was filling water glasses and walked by us several times and never refilled ours. Yes, I could have asked. However, I shouldn't have had to, so I didn't. My friend is on a strict gluten-free diet and Josh immediately let us know about all of the options and filled us in on the fact that gluten-free bread was available. My friend had the cauliflower steak. Awesome! Yum! I'm not even a cauliflower fan but savored the bites I had! Josh was stellar!
I was very thankful for Sydney who helped us with gluten free options. They don't have a dedicated GF fryer for French fries, Brussels, etc but I was still able to enjoy the gruyere mushroom burger with a GF bun, a side salad, and pesto deviled eggs. Nice cocktail list as an alternative to beer. Sydney seemed very knowledgeable about food allergies and I really appreciated her assistance and concern! Loved the vibe and outdoor seating options.
We absolutely love this restaurant. This place has become the place that we go to for all our special occasions and even if we just want to treat ourselves for a nice dinner. As someone who is vegetarian and whose husband is celiac, we appreciate and love the options available for both of us. Some seasonal menus we love more than others, though we have found something we love on each menu. Only once have we tried something that we really did not like and they were very kind and understanding of it. We recommend sitting outside since it's a beautiful garden and a little less cramped than the interior dining. This is THE hidden gem of Davis.
The gluten free items on the menu were very clearly marked, and the server was very knowledgeable about which foods contained gluten and where cross contamination was possible. He even made sure the sushi chef uses a separate knife and gloves when preparing gluten free items. There were enough options to satisfy us too, including BBQ oysters, garlic edamame, spicy tuna roll, and various nigiri, sashimi and more. Love the scallop nigiri. Excellent portions and inviting atmosphere, even a cool sushi serving robot. Will definitely be back!
We had a mushroom burger, fries and salad. The burger was messy and delicious, fries were lightly crispy and done how I prefer them! The bacon was crispy and thick. The service was good too. It was quiet while we were there and laid back. My husband is gluten-free, and he enjoyed his burger-in-a-bowl
