I was able to swap out my toast for udis multi grain bread at no additional charge. I had ordered an omelet with meat and cheese, breakfast potatoes and toast. It was so good. So fresh.

Probably a lot of cross contact here, but they do have gluten free bread so I was able to get a breakfast sandwich and home fries. The food was flavorful, the staff were efficient and the prices were fair.

We had a lovely lunch this afternoon. Deborah was absolutely wonderful and extremely accommodating to my various allergies. She went above and beyond to make sure my food was safe. They have good procedures against cross contamination. It was also delicious and very affordable.

I usually get the chicken quinoa power bowl here. I have not gotten sick and I always tell the server that I have a gluten allergy. I have heard that they do use shared equipment when toasting the gluten free bread so if you’re sensitive I’d stick with the bowls.
