Review


We were excited to eat here as it has so many gluten friendly options, which is hard to find, and good reviews as well. However, my daughter (who is celiac) ordered the GF pizza, when it arrived it looked very similar to my son's regular crust pizza. I asked the server if it was gluten free and she looked at it and said "yeah, thats definitely gluten free, I can tell by the crust. I can go triple check for you", as my daughter heard her say it was GF she began eating it. A few minutes later another server came back to let us know there was a mistake and it was not gluten free. Which set my daughter off crying because she started anticipating the pain she was going to have later. The server said she was very sorry and left. Nothing else was said about the situation again until we brought it up with the server about being more careful about gluten and people with celiac. For a place with so many GF options I feel that they didn't seem to care much that my daughter is celiac and was going to spend the rest of the evening in pain. I would not recommend.

Staff seems quite knowledgeable, when I asked to confirm GF, I was asked if it was related to celiac. The staff was very courteous and my rice bowl was delicious.

Lefty’s has many gf choices on their menu that I wanted to try. I had their falafel bowl . It was amazing and would easily feed two people! They even had a homemade gf dessert too.
