Review


Got the gf fried chicken and it was dry and incredibly subpar. You could make cardboard taste better. The lemon pepper seasoning was too salty, my tongue was so bombarded by sodium that I could hardly taste the already bland and juiceless chicken. I don't recommend choosing it at all as you do have the option to customize seasonings. However, the restaurant may be okay in terms of safety (general risk with shared kitchens) and there really aren't many other gf options on the UBC campus. I normally feel sick soon after eating contaminated food as I am a very sensitive celiac (who probably shouldn't have taken the risk for this) and I do not feel sick yet.

2 stars because I didn't get sick and because the price was okay ($10), but would be 1 star if I weren't a celiac.

Quite a few good and reasonably-priced gluten free options! Clearly marked on the menu. The person working there was very nice and helpful with my nut allergy. I got the beef kare-kare which was yummy, and there were other menu items I want to try in the future (like gf churro fries!)
