Eaten here many times. Usually the Southwest salad with added chicken or the turkey burger. 100% celiac friendly. Always feel well taken care of. They gave a great selection of smoothies and all sauces are dairy free I believe.

So cute and lots of health food but they told me the granola was gluten free (just made in a facility) and I asked to read the ingredients (after already eating a bite) and the third ingredient to the granola was wheat.

The Vitamin C smoothie tastes great but it is not good for acid reflux since orange juice is one of their first ingredients! The green juices on the other hand as well as the well belly ginger juice are great for relieving acid reflux symptoms in a natural way though!

If you get one of the bowls, make sure you let them know if you don’t want like cilantro! I forget every time but fortunately they never put a ton on and it’s pretty easy to remove.

What an amazing place! I can’t say enough about their menu - wraps-paninis- quinoa/rice bowls- smoothies- açaí bowls (can’t have the granola though)- 90° of the menu is GF (and Celiac safe!!)… GOooooo if you can - you will not be disappointed in anything you get.

I felt so safe eating here, so I was very surprised when I got sick! I got a Turkey burger on gf bread. They were very knowledgeable and my receipt was labeled “celiac”. I saw all the good reviews here and didn’t ask any questions about cross contamination, so if you eat here maybe just be smarter than I was. Maybe just a fluke, it was very busy today.

Been to Nucafe since opening but my dietary restrictions have become complicated over the past year. Their menu is available online which was super helpful to see what gf/df options I have. Great choices and way more options than I was expecting for sure.

This place is always customizable for your meals, and super great for those with gluten allergies and dairy allergies, as well as sensitivities like mine for tomatoes. If whey protein doesn’t work for you they have delicious vanilla vegan protein. Reasonably priced meals and I believe they recently increased their portion sizes but their juices are expensive!

I have been here countless times since my diagnosis and I can’t say enough nice things. I absolutely love the honey goat cheese avocado sandwich. I also have gotten the tomato soup. I usually always go for the juice and breakfast sandwich. Nice staff and understands the importance of allergies.

The menu was great and easy to navigate. We had a question about one of the items not marked GF. The staff checked with the kitchen and explained the peanuts they used could have cross contamination so they didn’t mark it as GF on the menu but were able to accommodate easily. This is a fun spot and beautifully done. Food was super yummy and healthy.

Their menu was full of things that are naturally gluten-free, but they also had plenty of sandwiches with either wheat bread or GF bread.

I had the roasted sweet potato salad, which was delicious. I didn't have any symptoms afterward. the sweet potatoes were actually cut and dried, so I was a little concerned about fryer cross-contamination, but I asked about it before eating and they said the fryer was dedicated GF.

I went here for the first time and can't wait to go back and try something new. They don't have a gf menu but are very knowledgable and attentive to gf needs. They have some amazing salads and several quinoa bowls which were delicious.
