For the people for use yelp to find gluten free food, I will say that my wife has Celiac and we have gone there twice now without incident. The servers on both visits were extremely helpful in this regard. I got the Sierra burger which was pretty good, especially the crispy fried onions. I also had 1 short rib taco and that was very tasty, though the avocado salsa needed some salt or more seasoning.

We were greeted with water (still or sparkling). Even though I am not vegan, I really appreciated the vegan menu. I tend to gravitate towards vegan options because I do not eat most dairy products. I ended up ordering the Vegan Pumpkin Risotto with Grilled King Salmon. In the photo, it looks like a grilled drumstick but I promise it's salmon haha! Everything was delicious. I was especially intrigued by this dish because it uses vegan Parmesan cheese. My coworkers asked if I could taste the difference, but honestly, I don't even know what actual Parmesan cheese taste like LOL The salmon was delicious!! I highly recommend giving it a try. Overall, vibes were great and it was a lovely spot to enjoy lunch with coworkers. They brought out a dessert menu afterward, but we didn't order any. I kinda wish I did though. The coconut sorbet with roasted coconut flakes caught my eye so I'll definitely have to come back to try!

This is my second time at social Bird. The first time was for dinner. I remember it being…read morefantastic. This local spot needs a reservation even on a weekday for lunch. However, they do save tables for walk-ins in case you don't have a reservation. We got lucky and were able to get a patio table so we could sit with our dog. The staff is very friendly and accommodating for gluten-free diners. We had the chicken wings to start they were tangy and perfectly crunchy. A little messy, but we were given hand wipes upon request. Next up, we ordered that tostadas with tuna, the prosciutto and burrata appetizers for entrées along with the pork sandwich. So happy to see the tostadas with the tuna back on the menu. They were delicious. The pork sandwich was large with crunchy salty chips to go with it the prosciutto and burrata cheese with pears and balsamic was packed with flavor of sweet, salty and creamy. Definitely enough for two people to share for an appetizer or an entrée for one person. I was only able to eat half of it since we had an appetizer to start. We were there for a birthday and were given a delicious caramel dessert with the cookie on the side for the gluten-free birthday person. It's no wonder this spot is a local favorite!

Our go-to morning spot after a walk for years now. Lafayette Public House nails the coffee shop…read morebasics and then some. Plenty of espresso drinks, freshly brewed coffee with cheap refills, and a pastry case that always has something worth grabbing. The breakfast menu holds up too. Avocado smash on sourdough and the farm fresh egg sandwich are both solid picks if you want more than a pastry. The space is the real draw. Indoor seating if you want quiet, plus a big covered patio out back with string lights, wine barrel tables, and heaters for the colder months. It's a pleasant place to sit and talk without feeling rushed. A few tips if you're heading over: get there early for the best seats, and street parking out front is free until 10am. After that you're hunting. Kitchen closes at 2pm, so plan accordingly. I've only ever come for the morning routine, but they've got a full bar with craft cocktails, draft beer from local breweries like Fieldwork and Altamont, and wine by the glass. The evening side is on my list. If you live in the area and don't have a regular coffee spot yet, make this it.

The inside of the café is magnificent, but since it was such a beautiful day, we chose to sit outside, which was just amazing. The seating was very comfortable, and our food was brought out promptly. Thank you for the wonderful service and hospitality. We look forward to visiting again soon!

I love meeting friends here, but it's also one of the few places I genuinely enjoy going by myself because I always end up running into someone I know or meeting someone new while sitting at the big bar. The staff always makes me feel safe and welcome, too. They're always hosting fun events, it's a great place to watch sports, and I love that I can bring my dog along. I know some people are disappointed that Rotator is now required to be 21+ with the addition of wine, something many customers had been been asking for over the years. The owners are parents themselves, so I imagine this wasn't a decision they made lightly. Families with younger kids still have several great brewery options nearby. If you're looking for great beer, wine, friendly people, and a welcoming neighborhood hangout, it's hard to beat.

I tried their Eggplant Parmesan which was new on the specials menu. It's listed as "breaded and grilled" but it's fried so the eggplant is crispy. It had two slices of fresh mozzarella on top and I appreciate that it wasn't covered in sauce.

The lady at the counter busted our line down quickly and efficiently and the food came out pretty quickly as well. Beer was poured at the counter. The outdoor seating area is delightful, clean, and well-shaded. Food is brought out but dishes are personally bussed. I got the cherry sour which was very sour and fruity - a little surprising (in a good way), delicious, and refreshing. I ordered the fish and chips but wanted a vegetable so I also got the melon and tomato salad. I'm a sucker for flan so I also had to try that. The fish and chips were perfect and piping hot and crispy. The salad was unfortunately a little disappointing; neither the melons nor tomatoes tasted very ripe so the whole salad was just a bit lacking in flavor. The flan also had a sliiiightly overcooked texture, but was overall pretty good, with a well-executed caramel sauce. Portions are also very generous!
