Top 50 Gluten-Free Accommodating Spots to Experience in Malaysia

Nice and quiet place to have breakfast or lunch. I had the salmon bagel, but replaced the bagel with gluten free bread. This was no problem and the food was quick and very tasty! Then had a gluten free brownie which was also very tasty, so all in all a great place.

Really lovely restaurant, staff are so friendly and helpful with all things gluten free. Was disappointed to not be in Penang long enough to one of their Gluten Free pizzas, but the gluten free pasta amatriciana was divine! Also the house white was served in a chilled glass which I really appreciated!

Ganga used to be one of my favourite neighbourhood spots — affordable, wholesome, and full of heart. The food had a home-cooked touch, and the service felt warm and personal. Sadly, that experience has changed drastically since Sumon’s departure. My recent visits have been disappointing: tea served cold or with sugar when we asked for none, nasi lemak heavy on rice but sparse on sambal, and “gluten-free” rotis that weren’t actually gluten-free. Still, I held on to some hope. But yesterday’s visit was the final straw. I had convinced friends—who initially suggested Mr. Naan & Mrs. Idly in Brickfields—to dine at Ganga instead. We placed an order for three aloo parathas at 10:55 AM. We waited... and waited. We checked on the order at least three times, and each time we were told, “Just 5 more minutes.” When I finally went to stand near the kitchen out of frustration, only one plate came out after nearly 40 minutes. The other two weren’t even ready. To make matters worse, the tea we ordered (specifically without sugar) came sweetened anyway. At boiling point, we left the restaurant without paying for the tea and patisa. I called Meetha Shah (the owner) while walking out. When we returned 10 minutes later, she said the issue was due to a “system error” — the cashier had apparently not sent the order to the kitchen. But here's the problem: Our order was not placed via a machine — it was taken by a staff member, with follow-up questions from three more after that. The cashier and kitchen are just steps away from each other. If the system really failed, why didn’t anyone follow up? Frankly, it felt more like deflection than accountability. Sadly, the charm that once made Ganga feel like a second home has been replaced by inconsistent food, poor service, and dismissive damage control. At this point, it’s expensive, basic, and simply not worth the hassle. A sad but honest reflection on what used to be a great little spot.

Nourish has so many gluten free options! The staff is friendly and the food is delicious! From savory to sweet, there is something for everyone! If you are gluten free, you must check out this cute cafe in KL!!!

It is not gluten-free!!! It is not suitable for celiacs!!! I went after reading a review from a celiac who apparently is not celiac 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️because it is not suitable... yes for vegetarians but not for celiacs, it says gluten free on the menu but there is cross contamination, I went to eat and of all the menu and dishes that said gluten free I could only order salads and some rice noodles that only had vegetables, I ordered the rice noodles and they stayed on the table whole, they only tasted of ginger and coriander 🤦🏽‍♂️ the rest of the dishes had cross contamination, the service was very good, but it is not a restaurant for celiacs, it is a restaurant for vegetarians, I could not order the option with gluten free meat due to contamination. There is no gluten-free beer either.

Amazing food and super friendly staff!! Great service, great beer, great spirits, plenty of gluten free options - coeliac friendly:-)

Maike Müller

Great restaurant with lots of gluten free options. The Wild Coriander Special with Chicken Rendang was very tasty.

Fox Paradox (Ampang) — A morning to remember! 😋✨ This restaurant brings a whole new meaning to the saying ‘food is fuel’. My friends and I visited fox paradox for breakfast during our trip to KL and established this was the best breakfast we’ve had so far. As we approached the restaurant, the first thing we noticed was the humorous menu sign left in the entrance. Immediately the vibe of the restaurant was felt throughout our group — this was not just another ‘food place’. The chic industrial arsthetic and chill atmospehere curated by the people behind fox paradox highlighted the amount of detail that owners of other restaurants often easily overlook. Small additions such as the catchy and vibrant music enhanced our experience greatly. Alongside that the seating was nice and cushy. Here are some our few favourites: 1. The gluten-free pancakes was a delightful addition considering it’s ability to accommodate to different diets. The dish was adorned with fresh mangoes and indulgent, fruity topping. Would definitely recommend! 2. The pasta options including the Cabonara was al dente (something our european-obssessed friend found very important). The rich, creamy sauce covered the pasta generously, balancing the peppery, salty taste. Overall, we were all very satisfied with the dishes we received. Need I say more? Just look the pictures!! With the service, we all agreed that it was highly efficient! The amiable workers greeted us with warm smiles and settled us in naturally. Would come again! Already recommend it to all my friends as well! ☺️ p.s. to any single ladies reading this, fox paradox has great eye-candy…but you didn’t hear that from me 🤭 portion: 10/10 service: 8/10 atmosphere: 11/10 food: 9/10

If you love Italian food, you need to check out Enoteca Vino e Cucina in TTDI – a cozy, casual fine dining spot that’s been around since 2014 (they started in Bukit Damansara!) Everything here is made from scratch – from the bread, sauces to the pasta, pizza, and even ice cream! I was honestly impressed by the variety of handmade pastas, especially the rare ones you don’t usually see around KL such as Maltagliati and Mezzelune plus I even found penne alla vodka here – been searching for it for ages! Their wood-fired pizza comes in 2 sizes (9” and 12”) – I went for the crusty 12-inch piquant La Maiala that’s generously topped with spicy salami, pork sausage, honey ham, bell peppers, red onion & chilli Theres also chef’s specials such as the Pepeso Saffron Risotto But what really stole the show was the massive grilled pork tomahawk Don’t skip dessert – the magic chocolate ball flambéed with sambuca is such a fun treat Bonus: they offer Gluten Free pasta & pizza options too Overall amazing quality and impeccable service!

Very kind and nice staffs. All food I ordered are perfectly delicious. Even gluten-free food! I'm gonna definitely back here

Matteo S.

Great choice of vegetarian and gluten free dishes. Our food was tasty and of good quality. The quality/price ratio is excellent. Also, the staff forgot one of our orders, but after we complained they did everything they could to compensate for it. Great attitude.

Bettina CH

Was here for the gluten free options. A big mistake! It was a disaster. Extremely poor service, very long waiting times (50 minutes until the food came). The food was cold, carelessly prepared and didn't taste good. The tea was far too sour even after a complaint it wasn't any better. Left almost all the food and tea untouched.

Leroy Oppliger

Food is really good but there is one bad thing They write on the menu that some dishes are nut free, gluten free etc but the food still contains those ingredients, their only nut free available and my friend who has a nut allergy ordered one of those dishes. So please for every other person who comes to this Restaurant: - change the sign to nut free available - and ask every time if someone has any allergies. Thank you

Rosemary Dyke

Loved our meal here. So fresh and really tasty. Good gluten free options too, clearly marked on the menu. Highly recommend!

Gluten free menu!! They have a whole menu for celiacs! The manager will take your order personally and the food will come with a small flag to indicate the GF dish. The bbq burger was a dream

Alexandra Huides

Food was amazing, with a lot of flavorful gluten free and vegetarian options! Definitely coming back here!

Just a few meters away and you can already spot the iconic Hard Rock Cafe door — a welcoming sight! I’ve been to their KL outlet before, and it’s always top notch, but this visit was another level. As soon as we stepped in, we were greeted by the friendly staff and assigned a table right by the stage. The ambience was absolutely rocking — vibrant vibes all around, with cool tracks playing that really set the mood for the night. Yes, the food is known to be on the pricier side, but it definitely lives up to the reputation. Tasty, satisfying, and worth it. We had a pleasant time and a truly great experience throughout our visit. A big thank you to Amirul (forgive me if I got the name wrong), the Operations Manager, and his team. You guys did a fantastic job, especially in handling my partner’s gluten-free burger request. The way you managed it was thoughtful and professional — much appreciated! Definitely coming back again soon.

Food was amazing and they did have gluten free choices. The staff were amazing - friendly and attentive and spoke really good English - great for tourists. Cocktails were yummy and really strong - can't complain about that.

Last night visited one of my favourite places to eat in Batu Ferringhi, Helena's. I have Coeliac Disease so played safe with the tried and trusted Mutton Curry, steamed rice and mixed veg 😋 the kitchen also sent out some gluten-free Dahl for me to try, all totally delicious 😋 👌 😍 Next time I visit, I will order the Dahl as my main 😋 Highly recommend Helena's if you need gluten-free and also if you don't 😍 👌 All the staff are lovely and friendly too, great place to eat 🥰

They don't have a gluten free menu, but they do have a salad option, I had a superfood salad with lemonade. Everything was delicious, the staff was super friendly, in fact they told me they could ask the kitchen if a dish could be adapted. The ticket includes 10% of tips and 6% of I didn't understand what... I recommend sitting inside, the climate is very cozy, a lot of people and noise pass by outside.

Maike Müller

We visited the restaurant during our trip to Cameron Highlands. Since I have celiac disease, I have to eat gluten-free. The staff were very knowledgeable and told me what I could eat. I felt very safe. The food was very fine. So we went back the next day.

Gary

Honestly one of the best dinners we have had, I’m Gluten Free and they looked after me so well. The view is amazing. Incredible service from - Shaky. A must when you come to KL

Jack Mendel

I went there after reading some of the comments on Atly. I am also vegetarian. They had very limited options for vegetarian/coeliacs. I mushrooms and broccoli, which wasn’t amazing. The broccoli had some kind of crisp on it which I took off as I had no idea what it was. The mushrooms were in some kind of oily sauce. I felt diabolical afterwards, but it could have also been something I had the previous day. The staff knew about gluten free and had a book with things highlighted.

Great food in a really nice atmosphere for a reasonable price. My wife is Celiac and requires a gluten free diet. We spoke with the owner and she was very knowledgeable. Many of the dishes are gluten free as well. We just stumbled upon this place but will definitely be coming back.

This was one of our many visits to Knife&Fork as I'm Coeliac and need Gluten-free. Liang is always so helpful... this visit she made for me fried crispy fish in a sweet n sour sauce especially made with fresh tomatoes. Also had chicken rice and stir fry veg in garlic. Gorgeous food. Liang and Loon are such lovely hosts and make everyone really welcome. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough if you are needing gf or not. My hubby and friends have eaten many many things on the menu and they always enjoy 😋 Pay a visit, you won't be disappointed 🥰

We had a great dinner at Aro Restaurant. Since I have celiac disease, I have to eat gluten-free. That wasn't a problem at all in this restaurant. The waiter took the time to explain to me which dishes were gluten-free (almost all of them) and what was in each dish. I felt very safe and the food was delicious.

Delicious food at My Own Café! We had the fried spring rolls and laksa — both were amazing. The owner confirmed the laksa was gluten-free, and my son with celiac had no issues. The wait was long, but 100% worth it. Highly recommended!
