It’s not very good. I’ve given it a bunch of chances over many years but it’s just never very good. Also everything is sticky and and not well kept. Very limited gf options- no Gf bread, etc.

Have eaten here for many many years. My son was recently diagnosed celiac, and I was so excited to see it recommended. I called and spoke to a manager. She said they have GF options, but no protocol for glove change, separate prep area, etc. She did not seem interested in helping. I’m so disappointed.

Absolutely amazing food!! 👏 Staff is super knowledgeable, menu is clearly marked for GF/vegan items, & I never have to worry about cross contamination. I was able to get the GF/Vegan Strawberry Choco Chip Pancakes as well as the rosemary potatoes. This was such a great find & we love coming here every time we're in the area!

Best (& safest) place in all of San Diego!! Staff is super knowledgeable, everything on menu is marked when GF or vegan. I was able to get pancakes that were GF & vegan as well as the rosemary potatoes & a chai latte. This was such a great & exciting find for us, not to mention the amazing ocean views as this location is directly on Solana Beach! This is a must if you're GF & in the area.
