Erik's DeliCafe

Had a great experience here. I called the week before to verify their gluten free options. Upon arriving the worker remembered talking to me & made my sandwich himself with all the precautions to prevent cross contamination. It was a good sandwich with good service.

Good sand which! They asked if it was an allergy or a preference. Then used a separate preparation space.

They have a dedicated cutting board and station and can print out what is safe. Very helpful for the most part. I did have one anxious to please worker who told me the Asian dressing was safe but I asked another to confirm that and it indeed had soy sauce. I was glad I pushed it. Delicious soups! They use Udi’s bread.

Super good potato salad! I never had any problems with it and the quality of the restaurant is great.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The gluten free bread is great, and can be substituted on any sandwich (and the sandwiches are sooo Yummy!).

Great gluten free bread and staff paid close attention to the details!

I am super sensitive and have been only ordering salads or soups in fear that the sandwiches are not safe. I ordered one today and feel great! I watched the prep, and they changed gloves and don’t really touch the food directly. I feel safe ordering again. Update 9/5/23: I have become a regular here and love the sandwiches!!

They have absolutely no idea what gluten free means. I asked which sandwiches we're gluten free, and no matter how many different times I asked the answer was "this bread is gluten free". I asked if the pesto on a sandwich was gluten free, "I don't know but the bread is gluten free so it's gluten free". DO NOT EAT HERE. It's sad because the one in downtown San Jose is good.

This is the only sandwich shop I feel completely comfortable eating at! Owners, managers, and most employees are incredibly mindful, aware of what ingredients are and aren’t gluten-free, and take really good care to avoid cross-contamination. They have a separate prep area for gluten-free sandwiches and will cut/make ingredients from scratch to avoid cross-contamination. It’s still a sandwich shop, and there’s always a chance something will slip through the cracks, so if you’re incredibly sensitive that’s something to keep in mind. I’ve never had an issue, though, and after watching the employees work and how careful they are, I feel very comfortable eating here.
