Wow! With my limited diet, I had choices! The waiter’s recommendation was superb and the food fresh and delicious! The only improvement would be if their gluten free chocolate cake was also dairy free.

Thank you for a wonderful meal!

I loved the charcuterie board. We also got the paella which I didn’t enjoy as much. Did not get sick though. They make their own bread. It was kind of weird, but it was fine. Better then no bread. Next time I would just get the charcuterie board to go and use my own crackers or bread.

This place was DELICIOUS! Their menu isn’t marked with gluten free, but nearly everything can be done gluten free. They make their own bread in-house, which is what they sub for gyros and paninis. I got a beef gyro and the bread was incredible- moist and stuck together! For dessert, they have gluten free cookies and chocolate cake. I had a cookie and that was also delicious.

They make their own GF patties which allows to eat a delicious piece of bread made fresh, hence you can eat the paninis. The food is cooked in separate pans and staff always wear gloves. You can ask the staff for special orders as well.

Flavory Bistro has great gluten free gyros that are served on gluten free bread. I enjoyed the sauce over beef and hummus.

Wow! We had a great dinner and were finally able to eat Mediterranean food including falafel! They provided a wonderful gf bread (freshly made!) to eat delicious hummus and fresh tzatziki. Staff was great and to top off this meal they gave us a scrumptious cookie!

The menu is not marked but they have a version of GF bread that they use for their pita and panini style sandwiches and it’s good. I also have a dairy allergy and I did have a bit of a reaction from eating there, hard for me to say if it was gluten cross contamination or a hidden dairy ingredient they didn’t know about. The staff was super friendly and willing to be helpful but I’m not sure they were as knowledgeable as they were confident that I should eat the food. Flavor was excellent. My normal diet husband enjoyed his meal as well. I would go again and maybe ask more questions or ask to see an actual allergen list next time.

Fantastic food! The GF bread was so flavorful and moist. I had a panini sandwich, and it's the only time I've truly enjoyed a sandwich since I found I had to be GF. They make everything fresh and from scratch. And everything on the menu can be made GF except French toast. You have choices! Not fast food as they put time into the preparation, but well worth the wait!!

Amazing! My most favorite GF restaurant. I order from here at least once a week. Everything is made fresh and the GF bread is awesome! GF deserts with lots of choices. The owners really do care and will make sure you get what you want😊

These people will bend over backwards to accommodate their patrons. We wish they were open on Sunday because we used to go for brunch quite often. Lots of choice and they are very careful.

Excellent service, food and atmosphere. they offer to make any of their dishes gluten free, with a freshly made gluten free bread. It is more of a flatbread, but delicious. I had the chicken gyros gluten free and it was really good. on my way out The door The owner made me take a gluten free cookie, made with egg whites, it was to die for! . As someone who has celiac I felt safe eating there and had no reaction.
