We had delicious burgers on sesame seeded buns, smashed potatoes, brussels sprouts, and quinoa salad. The meal was delicious. We felt very safe as the restaurant was entirely gluten-free. The server has a relative who is celiac so she was quite knowledgeable. We would go back if we were in the city.

So safe and so delicious. The cashew chip dip was incredible. The tacos were also amazing. Highly recommend. Bonus dairy and refined sugar free as well which helped my wife with her dietary restrictions as well.

Nice place, server was patient and kind. Weirdly they didn’t have any bottled still water (Austin tap water doesn’t agree with me) so I had sparkling. The Cobb salad was super good and they even let me sub out the blue cheese for cheddar. I got the smashed potatoes and steak to go and it was good too.

Had an amazing experience here! It’s a little overwhelming since the whole menu is GF! Much of it can be made dairy free too (the bread all contains dairy). The server was fantastic and very knowledgeable about all of the ingredients. Everything tasted AMAZING.

Wow what a great brunch place! So many amazing options. Lots of fun beverages too. I had the French toast and it didn’t even need any additional syrup because whatever sauce on it was so good on its own. We made a reservation and it looked like a good idea for a weekend.

Took my 8yo Celiac daughter here for lunch. So nice to find GF facilities and be able to say “Order anything on the menu!” She loved the burger and the Picnik Palmer drink. I loved that they validate 2 hours of parking in the Willa garage (enter on Monroe St.) Lots of great yummy options. Have previously had their Cobb salad and their loaded cashew “queso“ and both were delicious.

I love the food safety aspect of this place and the fact that they use healthy products, however… the prices keep rising. My family of 5 just had a $200 meal, before tip. We didn’t have any alcohol, but did get coffee and mocktails.

I've been going to the location up on Burnet Road for 4 years now, and just like that location this one is dedicated GF. I will say, I like the vibe of the north location better, but the menu and safety level is the same. Still super expensive, so this is one of the restaurants I go to the least.

We went to their new location on South 1st Street for brunch & everything was delicious! We started with the muffins as an appetizer & they were so moist. Banana pecan, blueberry & lemon poppy. Then we ordered several dishes & sampled them all - salmon benedict, tempura chicken tenders, scrambled eggs, biscuits & cinnamon roll French toast. Our daughter loved the chicken tenders!

We had brunch at the new 1st street location for my daughter’s birthday and it was fantastic! All of the food was delicious and we ordered extra muffins to go because we loved them! They treated my daughter to a free dessert and made her feel special. We will visit again whenever we are in Austin

Wonderful. As a Celiac, I love places where there are 100% no worries about any food restrictions. It’s dedicated GF restaurant that’s also free of peanuts and refined sugar. They have dairy free and vegan options and the food and drinks were amazing. I had the Chicken fried chicken with dairy free queso (to replace gravy that had dairy in it) along with Passion Fruit Lemonade. Haven’t had dessert yet but I’m sure it will be just as fabulous!
