Fantastic food and service. One of the best places to find GF food that is tasty and healthy near Northport. The staff is knowledgeable of allergies and will help make sure your order is safe.

The food is absolutely amazing! Gluten-free and vegan options are plentiful and the menu is well marked for GF and V. Portions are very generous. Service was excellent. I had the nachos and the coconut shrimp tacos - both were outstanding! Lovely view of the water on an outdoor patio.

Great restaurant located near the water at Northport Harbor! The food is great, and the menu clearly denotes which items are gluten free, vegan, etc. They also carry Daura beer that is crafted to remove gluten. I would definitely go back soon!

Amazing GF menu- almost all of the dishes are or can be made GF and vegan. I got the GF and vegan nachos- they were amazing. I am not DF and could not tell that the cheese was DF. Will be coming backb

One of my favorite restaurants on Long Island! Many GF, DF and vegan options. The Thai Elephant Wings & vegan nachos are a must if you come here!

Almost the whole menu is GF and they have a lot of vegan options. I ate here without the fear of cross contaminated food. They have dedicated fryers for their GF food as well. I’ll definitely be returning here!

Not only did they carefully take care of my celiacs but I’m anaphylactic to legumes. The manager came over to check every ingredient with me. Eating out is scary for me but I was in great hands. This is my third time eating here, food is delicious and safe.

Unfortunately I got sick after eating here. Sadly loved the place and the food tasted great. I am a very sensitive celiac though.

Outstanding food, many gluten free, dairy free, and vegan options, including desserts. It pushed the limits of how much spicy I like personally, great for me but if you aren't fond of heat, I'd be sure to let them know.

This place was fantastic. Both GF and Vegan. The do have meat options as well. My chicken was great. Staci loved her salmon and cauliflower mash. Lisa enjoyed her salad. Great service. Welcome atmosphere. Delicious food. Worth the hour drive for sure. We will certainly be back. Even dessert was on point. Avocado Chocolate Mousse and Crepes were yummy. All 3 of us loved our main dishes. Plantains were fantastic. Don't walk. Run to the Purple Elephant. Reservations are recommended. Enjoy 😀
