My husband and I checked out this amazing gluten-free bakery in NW Portland today, and I must say,…read moreI'm smitten! The staff were super friendly and greeted us before we were even through the door, the food was excellent, and the cafe seating was comfortable and inviting. Everything is gluten-free, so there's no need to worry about cross contamination! We ordered French toast and a chicken and avocado sandwich, and thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast. There are lots of healthy options here, so I can't wait to continue working my way through the menu. Tip: Just take a look at their bakery case right when you walk through the door. There are many inviting delicacies like their cinnamon rolls, buns, and vegan cookies. They even sell freshly made loaves of bread! There's bound to be something you'll enjoy.

Parking was a little tricky here on the main part of the street but there were a few open spots on the side streets. The space was bright, open, and clean. We ordered at the counter and sat in the back seating area. There were plenty of tables for dining in but we also noticed a lot of people coming in and getting treats and breads to go. The cinnamon roll was a MUST GET! It was super soft and not too sweet. I couldn't believe it was gluten-free! My friend got the Oregon Sunrise smoothie and Tuna sandwich. I got the freshly pressed juice and the Day Breaker quinoa bowl. OMG I am still thinking about that flavorful fig vinaigrette! Staff were very friendly and accommodating when I asked the music to be turned down. They also bus your tables for you which almost feels like a luxury nowadays?! (At similar style restaurants) I would recommend you to bring all your gluten-free and gluten-lovers alike to come here and check out their delicious offerings!

My friend and I were craving something light after a workout class in the area and it was the perfect menu for a hot day. Items are a little more expensive but they're farm fresh ingredients that fill you up. I would recommend trying miso sesame shitake cold noodles and add an extra egg. My friend and I were sharing and they were kind to split it up for us in our own bowls. The noodles were chewy and the ponzu sauce added a lightness to the savory sesame. Veggies were fresh and added the crunch needed to the dish. They had tasty kombuchas in their fridge too - nice to pair with the noodles! Surprisingly they own the seating on the patio as well so you can grab a nice view while you wait for your order. They bring it out to you but you need to buss it back downstairs afterwards. Worth a visit for sure and need to come back to try their smoked fish toast.

I happen to be gluten-free and dairy-free and I was provided a marked up menu that informed me of every option available to me either as a regular menu item or a modified dish. There were so many amazing options I could not even try them all! The area is very active and inviting and the restaurant, it's staff and it's food are out of this world! Those eating with me are not as restricted as I am and also found the food incredibly delicious and healthy. I highly recommend G-love!!!

One drink and the "Employee Health" charge of an additional 5% made the bill $163.80 before tip. Okay, so that's the not inexpensive part. As for the food, there were several great dishes. I was not wild about the salad we got, The Crunchmaster Crisp, the my friend said a different one she had previously was really good. We got the Crusty Avocado - seeds coat the outside and inside the avocado is filled with Ahi tuna. That was a good dish. We also had Garden Peas which were pretty good. The trout was excellent, the Fried Chicken was unique, and quite good. We got a couple of the skewers (they're small!), the pork belly and the steak and both were great. I could have ordered several and made a meal out of those! The Milk Chocolate dessert was good, but I wasn't a big fan of the "baby popcorn". The Whip-a-licious was well liked by my friend. It was better than I thought it would be because I'm not a big passion fruit fan. Our service was excellent. All together, I definitely recommend for the food, atmosphere, and service. Just be prepared for an expensive night out!

One thing I would not order again is the Vietnamese coffee. It was very sweet and not enough coffee in my opinion. Overall, everything delicious satisfying and would definitely come here again.

The salty pork belly balances out the creamy cheese sauce, the jalapeños give it a tiny kick of heat, and the toasted cornbread crumbs add a nice crunch. Black Truffle Pappardelle (5/5): Perfectly cooked ribbons with a great al dente chew. The sauce is buttery, cheesy, and hearty, but the cracked black pepper keeps it from feeling overly heavy. Logistics Tip: Checking out their menu photos online ahead of time makes ordering at the counter faster, and food came out in only about 10 minutes. Street parking around 23rd is pretty easy to find, but it's metered via the Parking Kitty app and they don't validate.

The sprouts were perfectly cooked and came with a lemony flavored sauce drizzled over them and they were so filling that I took my pasta home for later. Yummmmmm. I love brussel sprouts ad they did a fantastic job with the flavors. I did have a bite of it and it def had a very distinct rich black truffle flavor. I actually discovered that I would prefer these either with a different flavor or that it needed the addition of a protein for my personal tastes. Since I took this wonderful pasta home, I added in about 4-6 oz some large shrimp and it provided 2 meals for me. I felt the shrimp was a good addition to balance the strong truffle flavor. It is a bus your own table and get your own water type of place, which I prefer.
