I called ahead to ask about cross contamination and they assured me great care was taken. The waitress even made sure they knew in the kitchen. Pancakes were good! Menu says most everything can be made gluten free it's just an extra fee of 2-4 dollars.

I had a chicken salad sandwich on a gluten free bun. The bun is an additional $2.50 which is pricey. But the food was good and I didn’t get sick.

Even though I've never actually dying here, I'm giving this restaurant one star. I'm really confused because it's listed as so highly Celiac friendly, but when I called on the phone, the woman told me that it is not Celiac friendly and that they could not make something safely for me. The honesty is appreciated, but I was disappointed to hear that after reading that it was Celiac friendly. My best guess is that the chef spaced out at some point and somebody got sick and complained, and now they are saying that they are not Celiac friendly rather than fixing the problem so that it doesn't happen again in the future.

I tried calling ahead to ask about cross contamination and no one answered the phone. After arriving here I spoke to someone who said they cannot accomodate gluten allergies/celiac safely. confused about all the good reviews for a place that turned me away immediately

We were happy to find that Blissful Banana Cafe could accommodate my GF diet. The GF roll was very good, but the cheese sandwich was boring. I took half home to reheat for dinner and dunked it in salsa, which made a lot of difference. I'll try the Cuban or a burger next time.

This place is where your gluten free dreams come true! Any dish on the menu can be ordered gluten free! ( Except for most baked goods) They take a long time to make your food but it's so good the wait is worth it! I've eaten there twice and I have had no reaction to any of there food. ( I'm not celiac, but I do have a gluten intolerance) If you are in the neighborhood this is probably the best place you can eat with no worries about have a reaction to the food!

I loved the Gulten free biscuit. Yes I concur it's much like a kfc biscuit, except much larger and not as flakey! The Rosemary roasted potatoes another win! Yummy! I also had a gluten free cupcake, very good, yet 😳 $5 for one? Ugggh, I have to get used to this whole celiacs disease thing.
