Wow! This may have been the most delicious burrito bowl I’ve ever had!

When I told them I had celiacs, the lady at the counter immediately changed her gloves. She took me through the line, pulling out fresh servings of rice and other items. The food was fresh and delicious.

I felt they had plenty of choices and felt very confident that my food was gluten free.

I will definitely return.

Ordered breakfast bowls and the server asked if GF was an allergy or preference. She immediately changed gloves and utensils in all the dishes. They took a fresh container of cheese from the fridge. Delicious, filling bowls.

Great bowl selection. They understood my gluten allergy, changed their gloves and offered cheese from an unused container.

Celiac

I used to work at this location and they started heavily implementing gf procedures only after I was hired. I have been glutened even as an employee, multiple times by their kitchen manager who carelessly cooks everything on the same surfaces (eg They make the french toast on the same surface they cook the chicken in the morning). They also had been serving expired tortillas (not that we can eat them anyway) but the principle of things there is horrible. I used to tell people it was a safe place because my coworkers and I would take extra care of the allergies but most of those people left or were fired. I don’t trust the managers or the safety of the food in general but especially as celiac, it’s not a safe place to eat.

Symptomatic Celiac

Went with girlfriend to grab burrito bowls, had heard good things about the place. Staff did change gloves and used untouched ingredients from cooler, however we both did still have a reaction. Presumably due to whoever prepped the food not taking care to be safe. Good food, but cannot be trusted to be safe, ESPECIALLY if you have celiac disease. Management also not very understanding of our concerns and did little to rectify our issue.

Extremely kind and knowledgeable staff who were clearly trained for safety and caution when handling celiacs. We ordered bowls and our servers not only changed their gloves but took new and uncontaminated boxes of different ingredients for us without even being asked by us when we said the word celiac. The bowls tasted great and the restaurant had a great atmosphere as well. Highly recommend!

I got a rice bowl with black beans, peppers and cilantro. The menu is similar to Chipotle but much better quality of farm to table food. There is always a list of local food and coffee suppliers. This is self service with reasonable prices and elegant atmosphere.
