I have celiac disease and have eaten here before, but this time I ordered gluten free and was served beer-soaked refried beans. Another server let me know and gave me a refund but I had already eaten some and got pretty sick.
Absolutely horrible. Service, staff was very rude, and disrespectful. Prior to ordering for my celiac son and I, I asked a slew of questions to make sure we could safely eat here. They said yes there was no risk of cc with the items. I was ordering.....I waited 20 minutes for our food to be made, while waiting I noticed they were using shared food bins for both gluten and gluten free meals, so I asked about what precautions were taken to avoid cc since I was not seeing any. The chef said sorry, they didnt notate it needed to be gf so none. I explained that I had made it very clear it needed to be gf, at what point the waiter told me "it wouldn't matter if it was noted gf, you should know better than to eat at a place like this, it's going to be cced and there is nothing we can do to prevent that." O explained that's why I asked so many questions and said my son and I had celiac. Her response was "then you should know better than to even come in here, you should know your never going to be able to eat at a normal restaurant only one thats dedicated gf" at which point I see them finishing up our meals and there's flour tortillas on top of our food! At that point I demanded a refund and very unhappily left with a very hungry little boy. Kitchen staff was very apologetic, however the waitstaff was very rude and condescending. Would not recommend to anyone!

Amazing food love that they have gluten free and vegan options! Very celiac friendly havent gotten sick once!
I have celiac and I ate here safely! The food is a little weird but hey- gf and pretty tasty.
Hundreds of meals eaten here by friends and family with oodles of allergies and none of them have fallen ill here. Delicious with options for every one. Try the Lebanese bowl or the Korean bowl. They even have gf dairy free cookies!
This restaurant has some really interesting flavor combinations in their bowls. I like places where there are things to choose from on the gluten free menu and I'm not stuck eating the same thing every time I visit out of fear. The food was delicious and as a person with celiac disease I was not sick afterwards and plan to eat there again in the future.
This place is great! Everything we had was delicious, even the GF stuff (especially the cookie). So happy to see there are Portland locations.
I have eaten there several times and not had any problems. They have a large selection for gf and the staff is very knowledgable about gf. They even had several types of gf cookies available. Great place.

Gluten Free items clearly marked, recently added GF tortillas for burritos
Easy lunch bowls with good flavor-GF items clearly marked and staff is knowledgeable!
Variety of GF and veg options available, including rice bowls and quesadillas. They will take special precautions if you inform them that you have celiac! I asked about safety precautions for cooking the quesadillas and they indicated that they both use a dedicated GF section of the griddle and cook on foil, so that sounds pretty safe. I didn't ask about cross contamination precautions for burrito ingredients so be sure to double check that. They use GF tortillas upon request but gluten tortillas are also used in the kitchen. I had the Korean BBQ bowl, which was very tasty.
Their gluten-free tortillas are excellent. The food quality and variety are always top-notch.
Rice bowl was excellent. Staff knowledgeable and careful. No issues with cross contamination.
