Breakfast Republic

Busy breakfast spot with nice selection of gluten free breakfast items: French toast, omelettes, hash and toast. No Gluten free pancakes or waffles. Waitress seemed knowledge and asked the kitchen when in doubt. I enjoyed a shrimp and ricotta frittata, upgraded potatoes with Brussels sprouts, onion& bacon (which they sautéed to ensure it was gluten free) and the Jurassic pork (just thick cut bacon with paprika and brown sugar). Everything was delicious and no reaction.

Great breakfast place. I had an omelette with a gf pancake and everything was delicious. Waitstaff was very accommodating.

Server was unsure what was celiac safe or not. Really nice guy but just reiterated that the kitchen just wasn’t safe for celiacs.

I appreciated the transparency but was bummed not to be able to eat.

FYI — served told me the house hot sauce was NOT gluten free and was unsure about ketchup

My daughter’s favorite for breakfast. A lot of GF options including fresh levain sourdough which doesn’t affect me and is always a nice option if you can tolerate it. Service is always good. Wasn’t a fan of the turkey meatloaf hash. But everything else I’ve had is good. A little pricey by average for San Diego I suppose.

A fun little breakfast chain - We went to the location in Mission Beach. I wasn’t completely convinced the waiter knew what the issues I described were but I took a chance on one of the scrambles. I explained the toast issue and he offered to bring me a plate of tomatoes instead. I didn’t get sick and my mashed potato/egg dish was great!

I ask for the safest options for celiac, and they told me that all the Benedict eggs were one of the safest options and the gf French toast, they have a dedicated fryer for the potato’s and the bread it’s so tasty. Definitely coming back
