Got the breakfast tacos with soy chorizo and they were really good! Too bad they didn’t have gf bread for the French toast, but they had plenty of other options including chilaquiles and egg bowls.

Tacos (ask for steamed, not fried tortillas) and flourless chocolate cake were delicious, airy but well-heated outside patio, and kind, attentive service. Menu was not labeled, but server was knowledgeable.

Celiac - Went for breakfast and had the big bad wolf. Nothing was marked as GF but I can read and don’t ever see that as an issue. I saw very few things on the breakfast menu included gluten. My guess waiter was very knowledgeable and I felt very safe ordering. Big bonus - Views were amazing!! Can’t beat watching the sea lions swimming and playing while enjoying a safe meal.

The views here are absolutely amazing. You can’t beat the views. You can watch the seals swimming on the beach across the street from their patio. Their food was just OK to me - I got the risotto and it lacked a bit of flavor. Portion sizes are small for the price you pay. Their flourless chocolate cake was amazing and their strawberry margarita was so good. I would definitely go back for dessert and a drink alone. They don’t have a mixologist on site to make drinks on demand so whatever is on their drink menu is what they have to serve.

I went for brunch on a Friday morning. The food was great and I didn’t get sick! The menu doesn’t label what is gluten free, and my waiter did not make me feel super confident either. But I went ahead, and I’m glad I did! (I got the breakfast tacos)

Gluten free menu for every meal of the day, large portions, attentive wait staff. Ocean views on the patio. I ate here multiple times while in La Jolla and had an excellent experience every time. Highly recommend!

6 y/o has celiac as well as food allergies to all nuts (including shared surfaces), egg, and soy protein. Asked to review with manager the extensive list of dietary needs prior to bringing family to be seated. Manager appreciated our chef card and discussed with the chef. Upon her return, we discussed some options the chef could safely prepare. Daughter wanted grilled chicken just like her brother (w/o dietary restrictions. Both kids meals were safely prepared and served with a side of fresh cut strawberries. They loved their meals and ate every bite! Felt confident from my discussions that the food was prepared and cooked safely. The other 4 members of the dinner party thoroughly enjoyed their meals along with the view of the ocean and sound or barking seals! Would definitely return. I'm sure it helped that we were eating prior to the dinner rush around 4 pm. Appreciate the manager's concern and knowledge and chef's ability to please. Daughter ate every bite!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I called, spoke to 3 people, including a manager, they have NO IDEA what gluten is, or how to make anything GF. This place should be taken off the app.

Celiac friendly?

No

A number of options. They don't have GF bread, but they do have corn tortillas they will sub in.
