I remember eating at Cedars on Stephen Avenue and later on tenth while growing up. Since then I've discovered I need to eat gluten-free. I hesitate to go back to old favorites because I worry about being disappointed by what I can't have or by a lack of knowledge about ingredients.
With Cedars I was very impressed. The man who took my order knew right away what I could and could not have. I was able to have a chicken shwarma platter with potatoes instead of rice and without pitas. Pitas obviously contain gluten, but Cedars' rice has small noodles in it as well which is important to be aware of.
All the optional extra vegetables were ok, so I had garlic sauce, hummus, pickled turnip, dill pickles and onions. Everything was delicious, much like I remember it from years passed. The chicken schwarma plate was a generous portion of fresh food for $9. A bottle of juice put it around $11 total.
If you're ever eating at the Market Mall food court Cedars is a good choice. And if you need to eat gluten-free I think it's the best choice there.
