I am embarrassingly obsessed with the sriracha pineapple cauliflower wings here. They’re gluten-free, dairy-free, sweet, spicy, crispy, and served on a bed of crunchy kale. It’s technically an appetizer it’s honestly a full meal lol. The portion is huge and so so good. Whenever I’m hungry and don’t know what I want, my boyfriend knows to just pick these up for me and I’ll be a happy girl.
We’re moving out of the city soon, so they shared the recipe for the wings and the sauce with me for when I’m craving it - 10/10 staff.
Whether you're plant-based or not, get them.
Our server Karan was so great and fantastic and was so knowledgeable about the menu. The food was pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty good. We were especially excited about the gluten free options and the first good gluten free poutine we've seen in years. The milkshake was delicioso yum yum yum yum. The rooftop patio was skibbity.
The food was excellent. The Caesar salad is really good. Lick the plate good. I had a gluten free pizza and it actually had a crunchy crust and dough like interior... Which never happens! Highly recommend that. Service on a Saturday night was snooty and hard to come by... But they did the job and it was busy as heck. However I did watch an empty table for four sit empty for about 30-45 minutes... While there were people lined up out the door. Interesting. Interior is nice looking and lots of room between tables which is appreciated. Less snooty like service would be even better... felt rushed. But the food was fab. Steak was also had, all plates were cleaned!!
Had to come back to this spot for a slap up breakfast. Conveniently located around the corner from where East meets West (King St). The menu is filled with options for anyone, with a nicely elevated complementary pairing of flavours and gluten free options above and beyond bacon and eggs.
It’s a bit on the noisy side with the open kitchen so if you or your party are sensitive to noise I’d keep that in mind. Reservations recommended - it’s busy because it’s good!
Shout out to Jill who remembered us from our trip last summer :) all of the staff who served us today were wonderful!
Hot House Restaurant in the St.Lawrence Market stands out as one of Toronto's most popular dining spots, renowned for its exceptional food, vibrant and spacious ambiance, and impeccable service. The menu is a delightful mix of international flavors, featuring gourmet pizzas, succulent steaks, pasta dishes, seasonal salads, and decadent desserts. The extensive vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options cater to diverse dietary needs, making it a top choice for all diners. The Frutti Di Mare, Sunday brunch buffet, and expertly crafted ribs are notable recomendations. My favourite as a vegetarian is their Winterlicous menu of imaginative dishes as pictured from the last one, of Tuscany Farro Soup, Vegetable Kebabs and Cardamom Olive Cake. I'm looking forward to the next.
The ambiance is equally impressive, with spacious, colorfully decorated interiors and a sunlit 150-seat patio perfect for enjoying fine Italian wines or Canadian craft beers. Whether it’s a heatwave or a chilly evening, the restaurant provides a comfortable and inviting atmosphere.
Attentive and friedly staff go the extra mile to accommodate guests, including handling dietary restrictions with care.
Located in the heart of Toronto at 35 Church Street at Front, Hot House is steps away from local landmarks like St. Lawrence Market. With street and nearby parking available, it’s a convenient and memorable spot for any occasion, which I recommend.
I went to CRAFT Beer last week and had an amazing experience! Our server, Gabby, was absolutely fantastic—attentive, friendly, and super knowledgeable about the menu. I’m gluten-free, and she took the time to go through the menu carefully, making sure I had safe and delicious options. Her recommendations were spot-on, and I felt completely at ease. The atmosphere was awesome, and the food and drinks were top-notch. Definitely coming back soon!
Great appetizers , main dishes very average. Small portions, pricy . My half chicken came with mint instead of vegetables . Still got sick even though I got gluten free options . Not great for gluten sensitive and lactose intolerant . Great service in a beautiful restaurant.
Everything was absolutely incredible!! The service was outstanding and the food was even better!! Additionally, I have celiac and they are defiantly gluten friendly! I had an amazing fresh gluten free pasta and calamari! I couldn’t have it but my friend loved the Nutella tiramisu
Very good spot to get lunch to go, I told them I had a gluten allergy and the girl who was helping me was very knowledgeable about everything that was and wasn't gluten free. Great service and very good poke. Will come back!
We went to the King Edward hotel for Afternoon Tea at the Victoria Cafe for Valentine's and were blown away by the whole experience. We asked for a vegan option when we booked and they said they can accommodate it.
When we arrived they offered us complimentary champagne and we politely declined since we don’t drink. Less than a minute later they had two glasses of a nonalcoholic sparkling drink at our table.
The experience just kept getting better when the tea and food arrived. The food was delicious and looking at the non vegan offerings they were serving the other guests around us it seemed like our food was much more elevated and visually appealing. Everything was delicious!
For a non-vegan place I really feel they went above and beyond and elevated the experience from the standard non-vegan options available to everyone and definitely didn’t just “veganize” the non-vegan items by omitting certain ingredients. You could tell they put a lot of thought into the vegan offerings. At one point the chef came out to check on us and told us that they can accommodate many other dietary restrictions including gluten free if they’re given some notice.
Great tea, food, staff and atmosphere.
Thank you!
great experience here! staff are super friendly, attentive, and accommodating. all the food is fresh and delicious. great options for vegan and gluten free, and staff are well informed. I will be back many times! :)
Had my birthday dinner here with my fiance and it was amazing! They can accommodate gluten free which is one of the big reasons we picked this place because I’m celiac. My main course was the pasta del giorno, it was gf penne with butter, parm and shaved black truffle and it was one of the best things I have ever tasted. From the first bite, I was in heaven! Aside from the great food and wine, the service was outstanding! It was a busy Saturday night but we never felt it because he was so attentive. This is true Italian food and hospitality, we will be back! Also please put that truffle pasta on the menu!!!
