Best GF Vegan Options In Town: All pasta dishes can be made with GF pasta. I had the vegan bowl and found it tasty and filling. My wife had the Asian Noodle Soup, which was hearty and can be made with buckwheat noodles for a GF option. They have a GF vegan dessert option, too. The chef is committed to offering healthy choices and accomodating special dietary needs--a rarity in this area. The waitress was very knowledgeable and helpful. I understand reservations are needed at dinner time in during tourist season. We were there in early afternoon, and they were busy!

They were very knowledgable and even referred me to other restaurants nearby that could also safely serve celiacs!

Lots of GF options including pasta. My husband had the lamb shank and really liked it. Cool and fun vibe! Knowledgeable wait staff. Would definitely return!

Fantastic restaurant! Service was quick and friendly with a fun atmosphere. Great for the kids as well! They had gluten free bread for the sandwiches, but I decided to have burrito bowl instead. I would have included a picture of it, but I ate it to fast!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Last night we had the chance to try the Octopus Cafe in Alma , bread was dry but salad and main course was delicious... Hand made pasta in fancy tomato and pancetta sauce. My husband also had the chicken Marsala (which can also be made gluten free). For dessert we had a peanut butter oatmeal chocolate chip cookie. The whole thing cost us around $57.00 and to be honest despite the food being great the service was lacking (maybe cause it was close to closing time).

Overall great find and awesome food !!

I would still go back for that pasta any day tho !! I can’t wait to try their lunch menu !

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Such a wonderful find!! The pasta took about 20 minutes longer because new water had to be boiled. We didn't mind however, the atmosphere was terrific and the food was well worth the delay. Really a delicious meal. Enjoy!!
