We visited San Diego 7 years ago and this was on my list of top places to make it back to hem we came back in 2022. We came back twice in our visit this time. The food is always delicious and everything is marked on the menu for gluten free. I got the breakfast sandwich and then the traditional benedict. I love this place. Best cold brew ever!

This restaurant has a decent number of gluten-free options. The French toast was solid. We got the American breakfast as well. They told us that the potatoes aren't celiac safe because they are cooked to close to the gluten products. I asked because the potatoes aren't listed as gluten-free on the sides menu but the American breakfast is listed as gluten-free without a note about the potatoes. Otherwise the food was good. My celiac son did not get sick.

Good food, nice staff but still got sick. I’m as very clear with the server but I just don’t think the kitchen takes it as seriously as they should.

Had a great chicken club sandwich and truffle fries. I was skeptical of the fries, asked about them 3 x’s, nothing fried on the menu so I ate them. Yum!!!

I had a sandwich with a side salad. It was so good I questioned whether or not the bread was gf. I am a super sensitive Celiac and I didn’t get sick. Definitely will eat here again!

Loved the French toast! Thick and Scrumptious! Perfect brunch!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

amazing gluten free French toast with a side of bacon. Did not get sick and I’m super sensitive. Highly Recommend 😋

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Had the shrimp mango salad for lunch one day at Liberty Station, then the GF french toast with cinnamon sugar apples in the Hillcrest area. Fantastic food and I didn't have a reaction. Staff was extremely helpful at both sites with double checking to help me avoid allergens. Highly recommend!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Ate here twice during our trip. Had GF French Toast both times and the Bananas Foster was my absolute favorite. My family enjoyed their nonGF pancakes and eggs sandwiches, too.

Love the breakfast and dinner menus here. Staff is helpful. Food is so good: I did like brunch better than dinner. Try the fig jam and ricotta stuffed French toast... so good!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The waitress was awesome when it came time to order. She did tell Is that there can be some cross contamination with the breakfast potatoes so we just subbed them for fruit. The GF fig tree French toad was delish!!

no words to describe what's is supposed to be gluten-free.

Celiac friendly?

No

Amazing GF raisin bread French toast!!!

Fantastic! Had the traditional eggs benedict with gluten-free toast and potatoes. I will eat here again next time I'm in town.

Horrible experience! They offer gf french toast, yet they dip in the same batter as the regular bread. My waitress didn't even tell me this, even after I told her I had an allergy and was Celiac. Then....I learned that their pizza is gluten free, but made in the same pan/oven as the regular pizza. So, if you're highly allergic...don't go.

Celiac friendly?

No

The GF french toast is DELICIOUS!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Was surprised with all the choices I had. Had a new menu item "Border Bowl" with beef and cheddar cheese. It was amazing!! Hubby had the crab sandwich and thought it was awesome. It's made with real crab meat so really tasty. It's GF but don't guarantee against cross contamination. Even the fries are GF.

Celiac friendly?

No

Great GF options. Were very quick, but a smidge pricey. Food was good but not great. I'd go back for sure, but just wanted to justify the 4 star rating.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

love Fig Tree Gluten free options. They use Deanna's Gluten free bread, so tastey.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Most delicious gluten free French toast I've ever had. And a multitude of gf options. Nice outdoor patio. Only downside is the single (kind of run down) bathroom.
