Top 38 Gluten-Free Asian Dining Spots Across British Columbia

In the land of sushi in Vancouver this restaurant hits at a solid okay. I say that because it advertises itself as gluten free which was the main draw for us. We made a reservation which seems like it’s mandatory. The tuna tataki, karaage and tempura we ordered was great. The gyoza was a big let down. It was made with rice paper and resembled an egg roll more but it also fell apart and came stacked on top of each other. I wouldn’t consider them gyoza. The service was okay but once the restaurant was half full it was non existent. Something that most may not care about but I noticed was we all got different plates and there were no side plates for soy sauce or other sauces. Table setting was lack luster. For gluten free it was decent but I hope they continue to work on their GF options into the future.

100% recommend trying out this place if you have not yet. We ordered BBQ pork fried rice, spicy garlic prawns and crispy ginger beef. Portion size was really good for what I paid. I was very pleased and happy to find a resturant that has food I like that all the items I ordered here are gluten free.

Amazing food!!! As someone with celiac, I haven't had Chinese food in since I was diagnosed, and it was absolutely delicious. Even my non gluten free family loved the dishes we got to share. Will definitely be a new go to when I'm in Vic🙌👌

Justin Malhi

Service and atmosphere are great but food is beyond mid and overpriced considering the lack of real flavour, definitely not the most enjoyable sushi, iki is miles better for gluten free folks. But this place was alright.

BEST PLACE FOR GLUTEN FREE/VEGAN FINE DINING!!! Super fancy, absolutely delicious, amazing atmosphere with the live musicians. My fiance and I were swooning over how luxurious our anniversary dinner was. Its been a long time since we've found a place that meets our dietary restrictions AND makes us feel like we had a real fancy night out. Cannot recommend this place enough. Also, try the silk route feast! Its worth every penny!!🤤

Lots of options for celiacs

Leonor Barradas

The food was delicious! We ordered a stir and a chicken lemongrade to share and both were really tasty. Our fav was the beaf stir. We will come back for sure. The service was also excellent. Most of the menu was gluten free.

Good quality, nice Gluten free options, and kind staff.

Always LOVE Sansho Sushi, and visit often. They are always busy with dine-in and take out orders, which tells you it’s a great spot. Never had to wait for a table though, and the staff are always friendly & attentive no matter the time or day. Excellent selection of boxes and special items. The highlight is the gluten free menu!! Super thankful for a sushi spot that offers so many gluten free options- including teriyaki!! I love their chicken teriyaki roll, V4 roll (vegetable) and spicy salmon roll. The miso soup is also Gf and delicious.

Acacia was an amazing waitress! Best service I’ve had. They were also super friendly about our parties gluten restrictions. Also super kind with our kids, even though we all know how messy they can be.

We have been going to Asian’s with our family for years and it is the closest we have found to a UK curry in Vancouver - which is a huge compliment as the best curry restaurants in the world are in the UK! Chef Rick has been in this business for over 45 years and he makes everyone feel welcome. All dishes are freshly prepared. He is there early every day prepping all the ingredients. For diabetics it is particularly good - he does not use sugar but instead does magic with onions to introduce a sweetness. This makes the butter chicken the best ever. I can eat here without the food spiking my blood sugars at all - as long as I don’t stuff in too much Nan! The Tandoori mix grill is the best I have had. Mushroom matter is a favorite as is Lamb Sag. Did I mention the butter chicken! He often gives our grandkids a box of home made sweets to go. Gluten free options available and ample free parking on the street outside. I have noticed that Prices have not gone up since before COVID - go along as you won’t be disappointed.

Mekong is our only go to for gluten free Chinese food. Fast service, and always with a smile! We absolutely love Mekong. Thank for providing such delicious food for my family!

Micki Steedman

None of their ramen broths are currently gluten free as they are using regular soy sauce. The server mentioned something to do with tariffs and their gf soy sauce delivery but wasn’t able to say when they broths would be gf again. Their website still advertises gfo for their ramen so I recommend calling before you go.

Went here tonight with my mom and we had a lovely time! Our male bartender was fantastic. Gluten free options are available and taste great! The sushi was fantastic. I definitely recommend coming here.

Amu served us at Indian Affair, and they have incredible gluten-free options! The butter chicken dish was fantastic, The service was exceptional, making the experience even better.

It would be a 7 star review if that were possible :) we came here two years ago and returned this year and both the food and the atmosphere had got even better! Fantastic for celiac too.

Jessica Leslie

We went during happy hour so the menu was limited but the food was delicious. Highly recommend the pot of miso soup, very tasty. Items are clearly marked if they are gluten free.

Hank Warhead

Our server Kaitlin was very nice and accommodated our gluten free request! The seafood linguine was very good too. Lobster was a little tasteless but the salmon and shrimp was delicious. Nice atmosphere too, would go again!!

Coralie A-M

Seemed to have a lot of gluten friendly options and some gluten free. Waitress was really nice and was telling me which options were safe for coeliac. Food was delicious ! Long wait time to get a table (4) even on a Tuesday night

Alexandrea Garcia

This is my favourite ramen place ever! The food is delicious, and so flavourful! The eggs are to die for! It’s especially great as they offer gluten free ramen options that are safe for my celiac husband! The service is always super fast and friendly as well!

The Tan Tan Ramen has the most delicious Vegan Mushroom broth and can be done with Gluten free noodles!!!

Aislinn Flanagan

I’ve always loved coming here. Today was probably my 6th-8th visit, and I can say with confidence that Hello Nori is very consistent. The yellowtail hand roll with Shiso leaf added is my favourite. The by the glass sake options are great and they all pair well with the rolls. Lisa was my server today and she was excellent. She checked in lots and made sure that the chef was aware of my gluten intolerance. Gold star for Hello Nori, I will be back!

Authentic Thai food. For lunch we had Red Curry perfect size. My wife had Pad Thai large portion. Great staff. Great service. Our friends from Ottawa recommended this place when they visited Victoria the eat here cause of great food and Gluten-free Will come again on our next trip. The spring roll was flaky and excellent. There appeared to be five servers at lunch time.

Nina Murray

I was so excited to discover 🤩 that they offer a large selection of gluten-free options. The party tray is a great deal. The food is so delicious 😋.

Danielle Paterson

Great service and we both loved the red curry! Gluten free is available as well.

Natasha Chan

Loved our experience at Minami - we had a bunch of dietary restrictions and were celebrating our wedding which they thoughtfully provided us with a surprise dairy free/ gluten free dessert 🙏🏼 service was excellent, we loved the aburis, brussel sprouts (try it!) and how fresh the sashimi was!

Patricia Anne Caretero

Excellent restaurant! The only downside is the wait time (about 1 hour) as it is walk-in only and you cannot call to place your name on the waitlist over the phone. Nonetheless, great food and servers. We really appreciated how knowledgeable about they are about gluten allergies. We strongly recommend getting the fresh wasabi (3 dollars extra).

Amanda Nicolasen

This was the only sushi place I could find that has a specific gluten free menu. My son loved it.

Lauren Melzack

Food is above average with good portion size. Can be fully gluten free if you need it. A great find

Karisa S

Everytime I tried to come here, I couldn't. I didn't know you had to book a reservation at first, then I couldn't book a reservation ahead of time enough, then it happened. I thought, "maybe this time", and found the reservation site and there was an opening right when we wanted to be there on the same day (today!). We sat down, they served tea right away and then we had the gluten talk. I am still nervous about this being the new allergy that it is but the server handled it with grace and kindness. There were still many things that could be made gluten free. We got the aburi raft, substituted the unagi for saba and wow. I can see why Nori has been a long standing local favourite and why you need a reservation.

Rhianna

Fresh and delicious sushi! Gluten free options marked on the menu!

Paul and Naomi Osborn

Great value, lovely quiet, private booth and intimate, low-light atmosphere. Staff attentive. Great selection. Separated out the gluten free sushi rolls from the regular for the sake of our one gluten-free person, wow!! They also got her a gluten free soy sauce bottle, another wow! Everything tasted fresh and perfectly crispy. The scorpion roll was PERFECTLY spicy. Miso soup was also perfectly seasoned. Goma-ae presented in fun, bite-size rolls - easier to eat than the regular bowl. The outside of this place looks unassuming, but it was worth it, for sure. Thank you, Bluetail!

Sara Turner

I love so much about this place, the people and the food. I frequent it often. Unfortunately they’ve recently changed the gluten free noodles and the result…not so good (mind you I got them to go. Maybe they hold up better if you eat them right away. By the time I got home to eat 10 minutes after pick up, the noddles broke apart into small pieces and into clumps loosing the noodley texture but also the flavour wasn’t there like it was before. I’m lucky that I’m not strictly GF so I will still go back for the odd bowl of much loved gluten filled ramen. Thought it might be worthy feedback to share from a loyal customer. Otherwise, keep doing what you’re doing!

Claire Nielsen

We were in search of a sushi restaurant with gluten free options, so we decided to come to Uni. Although the menu does not have an extensive gluten free selection, there are quite a few items that can be prepared gluten free. GF items on the menu are clearly marked. We had the salmon oshi, spicy tuna roll, and scallop explosion (not gluten free). The food was excellent! They also have gluten free soy sauce available upon request.

Miriam Allen

Fantastic food and service. I've very severe allergies and staff were extremely helpful. Amazing meal. I will highly recommend them for anyone with Celiacs.

Amy Blevins

Antonio Aucoin

Johnny Bravo

I explicitly asked for gluten free noodles due to an allergy, the cashier misunderstood and made gluten noodles. Spoke to owner and they weren’t willing to remake or refund :(

Andrea Schartner

The food and the service was fantastic. Most items are gluten free, and if you ask, the owner is very clear about which items are not gf or are fried with non gf items. Really great experience. I will definitely be back!

Yo Ru

Probably great for people with no dietary restrictions. Came here as a celiac with a vegan friend, both ended up with questionable plates. Struggled to find appropriate items in the menu. I said gluten free for an allergy, got told the wasabi on my plate has gluten so they put it on the edge. Vegan friend struggled to find anything suitable, ended up with a lot of egg in his order. Nice pictures of food, no way to ensure the safety of the order. Nice vibes. If you want to be sure of your dietary needs and you have transport then I recommend my favourite, Loku Sushi in East Van. They’re small but you know what you’re getting.

Marella Falat

We’ve been coming to the Curry bowl for years. Food has always been good. Tonight our meal was exceptional. World class flavour. Each dish has something unique and special to appreciate. If you’ve never been or not for awhile, go! Also we had a celiac with us and they cleaned the kitchen before they cooked our meal to make it safe for her.
