This is a tasty restaurant with a nice atmosphere. Half my family is Lebanese and I think the food is very good. A variety of items are marked gf. Every time I’ve been here, the staff is not very friendly or accommodating, so I have had to really emphasize the glove change to feel safe. However, the food was always delicious and I have never felt unwell. A definite repeat, but be insistent with communication even if the server does not seem interested in engaging.

Maybe just had a bad server but nearly got glutened and was served dairy (also allergic). On top of that, the food wasn’t fresh and had little flavor.

Loved this place! The server was knowledgeable, helpful, and gave us some wonderful recommendations. The food was delicious, and as a sensitive Celiac I had no issues.

Great food, good service. The lamb was delicious. The bread delivered to the table was incredible according to my husband and he was happy with his dishes too.

All GF items were marked on the menu plus additional items could be made GF. Our server was well aware of Gluten and cross checked on who required GF once the order was taken and when food was served. My GF daughter received GF crackers when we received normal bread. My daughter had lamb tenderloin with rice and vegetables which she said was exceptional! The whole family enjoyed our meal!!

I’ve been here multiple times and it’s always a favorite Mediterranean gluten free spot! The menu is marked with what options are gf and there are tons of them. The food and service are always good.

Great food with easy to find gluten free menu items. There is no separate gluten free menu, however. Substitute the bread for vegetables for the dips. Even after telling the waiter that I had a severe gluten allergy, they still tried to serve bread to the table, but were very apologetic afterwards. There was a small upcharge for the veggie substitution.

Been here recently and they were very attentive and I felt fine. Went on Friday afternoon and the waiter seemed totally checked out. I’m certain he didn’t tell the kitchen I’m celiac because I found a piece of naan in my salad and I’ve been bedridden with a high fever for three days now.
