Vegan and gluten free options in bakery, as well as other vegan products such ascheese, mayonnaise, burgers, texturized soy protein, nutritional yeast, milk, and much more. Great prices.

I love this place! Being gluten free and vegan is hard in the US and even harder in Mexico. This store has many pastries and desserts, not all are vegan and gluten free, but I found several options when I went! I had pan, muffins, cinnamon rolls, hand pies, and cake. They also have vegan cheese and gluten free tortillas (made from nopales!). Many grocery items are available, like milks, flours, cookies, nuts, popsicles, etc. The employees are great, too. They helped me find the gluten free items. I didn't speak much Spanish and the lady I talked to didn't speak much English, but she was really nice and we made it work! I didn't have the chance to eat at the restaurant part of it, but I definitely will next visit.

I don't know why I didn't take a photo of the interior and the breads. They have a huge selection of breads and pastries. Someone in my group had coffee and commented that it was delicious. I would be great if there were some smaller breads so I could try more variety. The size of the loaves is quite large. They also have whole grain options, gluten and sugar free.

I ate a vegan burger and was one of the best I’ve ever had. Their gluten free is unbelievable good. The lady serving us was very nice and chill with my tons of questions (I have many food restrictions) I’d definitely go back.

Excellent options for our interest in desserts that are sugar and gluten free. We have not found anything comparable in Tijuana or San Diego. We wish you much success!

For about $25 USD, I got a piece of flourless chocolate ganach cake, a raspberry macaroon "cake," box of 3 regular sized macaroons, strawberry pistachio tart, and a strawberry cream tart. We shared everything for dessert between 6-8 people. Everything was delicious, and there was not a crumb left. The service has been amazing and friendly every time I've gone. They also have cookies and gluten-free options. Next time, I'll remember to take pictures before everything gets devoured.

I can't remember what this is called but very good vegan gluten free dish. Their condiments are amazing too!

Beautiful setting, but disappointing overall experience. We were initially very excited about this restaurant. The design is stunning—thoughtfully curated with an eye for detail, blending natural elements, lush plantings, and a harmonious mix of modern, rustic, and ethnic aesthetics. Visually, it’s a truly special place. Unfortunately, the experience fell short from there. The food was just okay. Cocktails were inconsistent, with some hits and others clearly misses. The most disappointing aspect, however, was the service. Our server didn’t seem to understand dietary restrictions (particularly gluten-free) and was curt and unwelcoming. Even more uncomfortable was the constant hovering from the lead waiter, who repeatedly reached across us to adjust the table or remove unused items, disrupting the flow of the meal. At one point, I was abruptly instructed on how to eat my dish, which felt intrusive and inappropriate. There was little sense of privacy or intimacy throughout the evening. This place may be better suited for a larger group looking for a lively evening rather than a personal or romantic dining experience.

There are several Gluten Free options, mainly dishes with brown rice. You can also prepare some others with Tamari sauce (gluten-free soy sauce).

We came for the first time without recommendations and we were pleasantly surprised. The service is excellent, beautiful, fresh, they offer you lemon-infused water upon arrival and they sell fresh flowers. The food has good portions and there are gluten free options at very affordable prices. A very original and healthy menu. What we loved most is seeing that they offer water to the food delivery drivers (uber, rappi, didi) we highly recommend!

The Real TJ Ernie

Good service and food. Limited gluten free choices.

The food in general is very good...everything is very delicious. Portions, good size. The ingredients, very fresh. Here I found the most delicious chilaquiles in Mexicali. It's not cheap, maybe a little expensive. They sell you the concept "organic, artisanal, gluten free, pet friendly" The service is good, although it takes time to bring your food and the line to get in is slow.

What I love about this place is that since they opened, a few years ago, they have gluten free, vegan and vegetarian options. They think of everyone! And not to mention the decoration, they take the time to decorate each season. The service has always been good! I'm a fan of chipotle and mushroom chilaquiles and the vegan hazelnut chocolate is delicious.

The coffee is excellent (you just have to mention that they want it very hot, if not, they give it lukewarm), the cake and cookie bar is very good and several gluten-free products

Specialty coffee bar. The space is small but it is ideal for picking up and taking away. I like that they have keto and gluten free desserts, their cafe menu is very complete and the service is the best. My favorite in Tecate.

Boka gave me an exceptional daily dining experience during my 3-week stay at the QUARTZ. The Boka team operate with precision, care, and compassion. From greeting guests at the door and seating where YOU prefer to the wonderful pastries, lime water, and excellent extensive menu of items, including fresh juice, and delicious fresh fruits. With my gluten-free diet, the Greek omelet became my all-time favorite breakfast. The compassion came from the staff who sang encouraging songs, asked how I am doing healthwise, and became family, all that while never missing a beat in making sure we had everything we needed. Boka is an 11 on a scale of 10 and definitely 5 stars across the board!

We live in Los Angeles and spend a lot of time in Tecaté. We love Awebo!! The food is delicious and fresh with generous portions. The service is very welcoming. For Americans looking for a traditional breakfast, they have eggs, hash browns, avocado toast, etc. I’m pretty much gluten free so I appreciate being able to order eggs, ham, and potatoes. I also love the atmosphere. It’s bright and comfortable. Highly recommend!

Everything is incredible, the pizzas are thin, no gluten free but guilt free yes. Amazing salads. We enjoy coming here. The excellent attention of Yari and Ricardo

I ate here when it was the tlayuda house but now it is Piedra Santa and it is much better. We made a reservation and Wow. The tlayudas are perfect. I don't eat meat or gluten and there are many options for me. The waiter was perfect. Food. The experience. All. :) thank you so much.

Grab the pollo chili verde and a sweet corn and thank me forever. I had surgery and my friend drove up from Tijuana bringing me these tamales and YUM! She got a variety pack and I liked them all but the chicken chile verde was one of the best flavored tamales I’ve ever had. The masa was light and fluffy, moist, and flavorful. The sweet corn was also moist and not too stringy or dried out like they can be. I’m excited to try the other flavors next time I’m in Tijuana. I’m gluten free and these did not hurt my stomach. Not sure about cross contamination but felt like it all would be celiac friendly.
