2 sensitive celiacs an 2 who aren’t in our group. It was so nice that my teenage son could enjoy a nice gf Chunk Monkey Brunch entree and he said it was delicious. I enjoyed a delicious sausage gf pasta dish. He served it toasted gf bread that was actually quite tasty as well where usually gf toast is just hard and tasteless, I quite enjoyed it! Our two non-gf family members enjoyed delicious chicken parm sandwiches. We were able to get ready made gf pastries to go at the restaurant and I went into thr to-go area and picked up some of the gf challah bread and gf cookies to make some French toast when we return home! 😃

I’ve been here a few times the food is always very good And celiac safe last timeI had chicken and waffles. The chicken was good the waffles were to die for. My only issue is the menu is unclear and most of the wait staff seems unsure when asked questions

I just ate here with my husband and two kids. Wow! I had the gf bagel with smoked salmon, cream cheese and eggs. Simply amazing. Great service. I asked about the home fries and they explained they cooked them separately on the grill. Highly recommend!

Just ate there for Mother's Day and everything was excellent. Had to wait 45 minutes for our table, but it was worth it. Had a gf scone while waiting. They were super careful with it and put in separate pan to heat. I had the Frittata (my MIL is Italian and makes the best Frittatas so usually I am disappointed when I offer them out), and this did not disappoint! So yummy. My Celiac daughters and I'd hubby ate omelettes with a side of gf toast and pancakes. My oldest daughter said she wishes she wouldn't have worn a belt - she was stuffed.

We fortunately was sat at the counter and got to talk with the waiter who is also Celiac. He said they are very careful and showed up the dedicated toaster.

We have a new place for breakfast and can't wait to try them for lunch. I am only sad bc they aren't open for dinner.

Absolutely incredible food. I’ve been gluten free for over three years and have yet to have French toast that was worth talking about until today at Giovannas Cafe. Although this place is 3 hours from home for my fiancé and I, we will definitely be back.
