"Being the gluten-free one in your dinner group can sometimes feel like you’re asking to eat off a kids menu that doesn’t come with crayons or any other type of fun. At Thyme & Tonic, you can take an entire GF crew to a very adult restaurant just for them. The menu is gluten-free and mostly-vegan, with everything from kung pao cauliflower rice bowls to a Sunday brunch provided with assistance from the GF bakery next-door, Modern Bread and Bagel. They also have an extensive bar with great cocktails, and there's a lively scene both inside and out on their flower-powered outdoor dining area. " - neha talreja, bryan kim, hannah albertine
