Awesome restaurant, great servers and atmosphere. Tons of GF options. They have a separate fryer so you can get fries, popcorn chicken, tortilla chips + guac etc. I have celiac so I’m super sensitive and had no problems here!

This place was amazing. When I come in from Chicago, I usually head straight to fresh kitchen, but this time I tried Cali, and wow, everything was excellent. Even my picky 7 year old loved the garlic lime edamame and popcorn chicken. Can’t wait to come back!!

Our first stop after arriving from Minneapolis. Menu clearly marked and server and manager made sure to check for allergens. Food was excellent and the service was superb. Server Summer was the best! I loved that they recommended other related businesses that are GF. We will be back!

My 8 year old son has celiac. Can not rave about this place enough! Usually you have to sacrifice taste for safety but not here. Everything on the menu was/looked delicious. Dedicated fryer, clearly labeled and mostly gf menu and understood cross contamination perfectly! Really wish we had one in our town.

We loved our experience here! Dedicated deep fryer for their popcorn chicken (delicious) and ordered their steak and eggs. They had plenty of GF options on their brunch and regular menus. Staff had knowledge of being celiac and we had no issues at all.

I love this place! I'm extremely sensitive and I've eaten here 20+ times, so I definitely would have gotten sick by now if they weren't careful with CC. They have brunch options, too, which is hard to find! They have two separate fryers for gluten foods and GF foods. Everyone is also knowledgeable and understanding.
