Tried a few of the small plates: pan de yuca, empanadas and jerk mahi mahi (special). Also had the chocolate mousse. Everything was delicious and I did not feel sick afterwards. Menu is well marked and the staff take your needs seriously.

Everything was so delicious. Our server was super knowledgeable and recommended really tasty things. Most items are gluten free. We enjoyed a few small plates (the vegetarian empanadas, the shrimp ceviche, and a seasonal mahi mahi kebab). All were delicious but we can’t stop talking about the chocolate mousse. The best dessert I’ve had since my celiac diagnosis…maybe ever!

Had a great night at so-ca! Both my son and I are celiacs, and my son also has an egg allergy. Their menu is clearly marked GF with tons of options, including gf empanadas. The server was very knowledgeable about celiac and other food allergies. They even had egg-free, gf chocolate mousse, which was delicious. Great time, no problems, would highly recommend!

I am a very severe celiac and this place was amazing! They took such great care and most of the food is gluten free and it is DELICIOUS! I felt like I could just enjoy eating out without any stress. Plus the restaurant has such a cool vibe.

This is my new favorite restaurant in Raleigh! The allergy menu has every single allergen labeled. I got the short ribs and the dulce dessert. Amazing!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious food! Ask for the allergy menu that breaks down each dish by allergen. They have a separate gluten free fryer and my server was knowledgeable. I had the Brazilian short ribs and did not have room for gluten free dessert!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place is amazing for gf eating! Huge selection of gf choices including appetizers and desserts. The food was incredible-our whole party raved over every bite! Wonderful to be able to eat safely and deliciously as a celiac. This is our new favorite celebration restaurant!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great food and I had no reaction. A good restaurant for people with multiple food allergies too, since they are all marked on the menu. When the waitress came over her very first question was whether I had any food allergies!

Fantastic food! Majority of the menu is gluten free and they understand celiac and cross contamination. I had several apps and an entree and didn’t sick. Loved the bread rolls and pork cheek. Definitely returning! Little more expensive but totally worth it.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Extensive gluten free menu and the staff are extremely knowledgeable about celiac. I’ve eaten here several times and never had a gluten issue. I’ve also eaten at their sister restaurant buku and also had a great experience. Great spot for GF dining.

This restaurant was amazing! I am gluten free and vegetarian and I asked for the gluten free menu and they gave it to me and it was great. I could eat so many things. My friend and I split a small plate and I had a big plate and so did she and we spent 40

Large gluten free menu. Lovely food.

DELICIOUS! Kind of fancy but the food was absolutely stunning. The flavors were exquisite and the staff assured me repeatedly that each of my items would be gluten free. That was yesterday and I’ve been completely fine!

This place didn't disappoint! The gf menu was huge. I had pork cheeks with goat cheese polenta, empanadas and charred octopus. All highly recommended! Will definitely be back.

Lots of options. Unique foods.

Celiac friendly?

This is a great choice for those with a gluten free diet. They have so many options on their gluten free menu, you don’t feel like you are missing out on a thing. Our dinner was fabulous and the service was top notch.

The ambiance, decor, and style of this place is appealing. The food comes in large bowls so small portions aren’t a problem here. I like the mix of differing cultural foods into one. It is a unique idea and it tastes pretty delicious. It is pricy but not as much as it seems to be gossiped about - I came in for a birthday meal at dinner time and it was nearly empty. The prospect of a hefty bill seems to scare potential customers away but it is truly not that bad.

Celiac friendly?

Had such a fantastic meal and I’m gluten, dairy, grain free and no beans either. They have excellent gluten free menu and also a vegan menu. Delicious South America and Caribbean food with healthy and creative dishes. Can’t wait to go back.
