Extensive GF menu, had to choose what to order it all looks so good. The GF French toast is amazing. Their bacon is very flavorful- not your average dull diner bacon. Homemade corned beef hash is very clean tasting and wonderful. Husband says he wants to come back to NM just so he can eat here again. Bloody Mary was a little lame and watery. They have lots of other cocktails if you are interested.

Visiting from Texas and so happy to find this restaurant! Separate gluten free menu with many choices for breakfast and lunch. I ordered the bananas foster French toast and home fries with green chili sauce. Everything was delicious and I had no reactions. We went back again for breakfast today. The gluten eaters with me had the biscuits and gravy, omelets and Belgium waffles with specialty creams. They loved their food as well. The staff was very friendly and attentive and quick with service both days we went. Will definitely eat here again next time we are in Cruces.

I was so excited when we found this place! I got the gluten free bananas foster French toast and the gluten free huevos rancheros. Both were delicious, although the huevos were just a tortilla, eggs, salsa, and cheese. I expected beans, lettuce, queso fresco, etc. but it was still yummy. My gluten-eating husband got the ABCLT and really liked it. Wish we lived closer!

We go frequently, but it’s good to update. My GF DF wife continues to have no issues. The food is fantastic. We most recently had a relative who has severe nut allergy and was also safe. Highly recommend

I had a breakfast sandwich and the gf bun is the best gf bread I’ve ever eaten. It was yellow like brioche and not grainy or crumbly at all! My only complaint is that many of the menu items are served with a side salad-no substitutes allowed. Who wants to eat lettuce at 9:00am??

Got the Italian sandwich (hot) and it was decent. My husband got a club with pesto and he enjoyed it. The GF bread was pretty good. Did not get sick. This place is a little pricey but my main issue was that it was sooo loud. Something about the acoustics made it so we could clearly hear conversations across the room but couldn’t hear each other. Good safe option!

I got the GF pain perdu and it was super tasty and HUGE - could definitely feed 2 people. The server didn’t know as much but was clear in the GF menu and the kitchen. Clearly knows what they are doing. Not the slightest bit of stomach upset, despite being a glutenous place.

The online menu is a little confusing about which items can be made GF. But they have a separate physical Gluten Free menu! The waitstaff was very nice, I ordered a lavender lemonade mimosa and the GF french toast! It came with a side of sausage. Sausage was a little overdone, but overall a good meal!

Love this place! Excellent food and service. I have eaten there twice with no issues, however, they do post a disclaimer on the menu that nothing can be 100 percent guaranteed. I am highly sensitive and was fine. They offer varieties on bread, too, and the bread is amazing. The coffee is outstanding. Update: Mothers Day 2021: I had the eggs Benedict and it was excellent. The yolks were a little overcooked, but I asked for more sauce, and that fixed it. Very good service and good food for a holiday. I usually don’t like to eat out on holidays because the food and service is almost always compromised. I would go back here again on Mother’s Day without hesitation.

Extensive gluten free menu. Even their limited menu (like Lent menu) is gluten free.

Not sure why this place doesn’t show up on this app under the local places near by. I’m still inside it and it doesn’t show up.

I love this place! While they do not have gluten free waffles they have an abundance of breads and have made most of their menu safe for people with celiac disease. Their version of gluten free French toast is fantastic, and enough for two or three people. Their sandwiches and benedicts are delicious and the bread they use is sturdy. When you go make sure to ask for the gluten free menu. It clearly states what you can have. I've never been ill after eating here, not even from cross contamination.

So pleased to discover this spot. Back for breakfast for a second day. Great selection of foods and the staff are very knowledgeable about ingredients- I am celiac and my husband is lactose intolerant and it's nice not to feel like a pain in the neck.

I actually chose to stay in Las Cruces instead of El Paso this time to make it easier to go back here for breakfast. The GF pain perdu was stunning--can't wait to have another one. I ate half last time and it actually traveled well to my destination, where I ate it at room temperature for dinner and was a happy camper. No syrup needed!

The gluten free pain perdu was just delicious and do decadent. You don't often get such yumminess in a gf dish. Definitely recommend.

Owner's niece and nephew are gluten intolerant so they take GF seriously. Still not a ton of options but they're working on it. Staff was very respectful and answered all my questions. Happy to accommodate. Food is average in taste but GF French toast did not make me sick and I am very sensitive to cross contamination.
