"Gluten-free restaurant. I had the tuna sandwich, and my partner the salmon. Both were delicious. Absolutely recommended."

"I was so happy to finally try this place! I ordered the manoushe and some pancakes and both were delicious! Edit: We came back again and had some lunch items and dessert - the mozzarella sticks, fish and chips, a tart, and some cake! Delicious and even the non gluten-free eater was happy and said he couldn’t tell the difference :)"

"I think Tawa is a gem! I specifically wanted Pumpkin Soup and they popped up in my search. I started with the Mushroom bites and Pumpkin Soup, had the grilled Salmon for my main and sticky date pudding for dessert. Every dish just kept getting better and better even though they were all fantastic on their own. The service was quick and pleasant. The environment was calming and beautiful. I'll be back soon! Especially for the pumpkin soup!"

"The place is beautiful and relaxing. Their baked goods are gluten free and some items taste even better than the non gluten free versions. I recommend the salted caramel brownie, salted chocolate chip cookies, and wagyu burger. Their cupcakes and eclair are also good but the brownie is better."

"I had a great experience at Tawa .The food was absolutely delicious, and everything we ordered was fresh and full of flavor. A special thanks to Enid, who took care of us during our breakfast. She was very friendly, always smiling, and provided excellent service. Her communication was clear and professional, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely be coming back again!"

"Lovely food, chill and quiet atmosphere, perfect to relax and eat a healthy meal. I had beetroot salad, great to eat fresh vegetables again!"

"I’m not usually gluten-free, but my wife is, so we decided to check this place out — and I was genuinely surprised by how good the food was. For someone who normally eats gluten, the dishes tasted remarkably similar to the foods I’m used to, with no sense of compromise at all. We tried the fish and chips, manakish with za’atar and gibneh (cheese), mozzarella sticks, and finished with a slice of vanilla cake and a strawberry tart — everything was excellent. Honestly, I didn’t expect gluten-free food to be this good. Very impressed, and we’ll definitely be coming back."
