7.9
A health-forward counter spot designed for dietary flexibility—gluten-free feels normal here, not like a workaround. The best move is to order in a single lane (one bowl or one plate plus a drink) and keep expectations in the clean-and-functional zone rather than “special occasion” dining.
Must-Try Dishes:
Protein bowl with seasonal veg (GF-friendly), Salad + add-on protein, Smoothie or cold-pressed drink
Scores:
Value: 7.7
Service: 7.8

What makes it special: A dietary-flexible menu where gluten-free ordering is the default.
Who should go: Clean eaters on tight schedules
When to visit: Weekday lunch or post-gym window
What to order: Bowl, salad, smoothie
Insider tip: Ask for sauce on the side and taste-adjust as you go.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; limited and competitive during midday. Best bet is walking, biking, or rideshare.
Dress code: Casual-athletic friendly. Workout gear, jeans, or business-casual all feel normal.
Noise level: Low to moderate — counter-service hum but easy to hold a conversation.
Weekend wait: Not a dinner-driven spot; minimal waits but reduced menu energy later in the evening.
Weekday lunch: 5–10 minutes during peak lunch rush, usually no wait off-peak.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes — multiple bowls and plates work without modification.
Vegan options: Yes — several plant-based bowls and sides, plus smoothies.
Gluten-free options: Yes — core menu is gluten-free by design; staff is fluent in dietary needs.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Not ideal for a traditional date — it’s functional and fast, better for daytime meetups or solo meals than romantic pacing.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes — it’s counter service with open seating. Just order, grab a seat, and you’re set.
Is it kid-friendly? Fine for older kids who eat simply, but no kid-specific menu or entertainment features.
Best For
Better for: Reliable gluten-free, clean-eating meals that are fast, predictable, and easy to customize.
Skip if: You’re looking for atmosphere, lingering meals, or a special-occasion dining experience.
