This was our first time here and we had 2 Celiacs and one gluten free person and we were so impressed with the gf pizza and risotto balls. Crust was one of the best we have had so we ordered another one to go! Service was amazing and server was friendly and informative. Can’t wait to go back.

We love the look of the new location! There are lots of gluten free options on the menu. However, my ramen was far too salty and I wasn’t able to finish it because of that. The rice in the rice bowl was cold. The server was very nice but service was slow. We did enjoy the bao bun and the calamari. We’ll be back to give studio east another chance!
We were promptly greeted, and they are very celiac aware. Delicious gf fish and chips, the other dishes ordered by others in our party were all really good (as reported by the others). Great service, attentive family! Highly recommend this hidden away gem!
Had an amazing dinner, the food and drinks were excellent and they were very accommodating to dietary restrictions (vegan, gluten free) in our group. The service was also outstanding and each person in our group received a fresh rose at the end of the meal. The ambiance was really nice as well. I highly recommend it!
What a great find!! Traveling in Halifax as a family with several food intolerances, we could not have been happier with the Gluten-Free, Vegan, and dairy-free options. Cozy spot, great service, and everything was very tasty. We've been in town two nights and had dinner here twice!
We had a gathering of 16 people and Talay Thai put together our take out order flawlessly. The food was delicious, and they were very knowledgeable and willing to accommodate my gluten sensitivity.
An exceptional dining experience. Very impressed with how serious food allergies are treated. Our server, who was excellent, guaranteed no crosscontamination of gluten and the manager Yamac, who was particularly personable, attentive and pleasant,
discussed the method of food preparation, ingredient substitution prior to the meal being made and checked in afterwards to confirm everything was satisfactory.
My partner and I enjoyed every bite of our meals. I had the Chipotle Mango Chicken, my partner had the Grilled Chicken Zen Bowl. Photo of the Chipotle Mango Chicken enclosed. The cheesecake was the best that we ever had. The service was excellent. Hats off and thanks to Moxie's a restaurant doing it right. We will be back.
Amazing food, Becka went out of her way to make it a wonderful experience especially for our daughter with Celiac. She's the best server we've had in many years. Definitely a go to spot!
Such a fun place to eat. Celiac safe (in my experience) and most of the menu can be made gf. It tends to be noisy so if you're not into that kind of thing it's something to be aware of. It's a cozy spot and the service is always top notch. Once a dish wasn't what I'd hoped and the server inquired why I wasn't eating much. I didn't want to complain but after I told them I wasn't into it they brought a free dessert after offering to replace the whole meal (I was already full so I didn't want another). The one time I didn't love what I got they more than made up for it with the service. That same day I ate a bunch of another persons pasta and theirs was excellent, I think what I had was a one off and have gone back with 0 issues since.
Wow, I am very impressed! The food was absolutely delicious and I already know what I will try next visit. I had the Ultimate Club with delicious Dragon fries and a blueberry blast smoothie. Food is 100% vegan and very fresh. Great atmosphere, and the ladies working were very friendly and helpful.
While I'm personally okay to eat gluten, they did have many gluten free options as well!
We had a spectacular dinner at 2 Doors Down. A cozy atmosphere, excellent service and the food was amazing! My partner is celiac so was very happy they had a gluten free seafood chowder, and it was so good. Loved the biscuits with the butter and molasses as well. I had the scallop and asparagus risotto….definitely recommend!
Well must say first time there with my girlfriend the waitress was just great looked after us made sure everything was as we ordered drinks food etc Im gluten-free and its one of the best pizzas ive had i took extra sauce and its very good sauce.
We both loved it.
The restaurant was very cute, but we took our order to go. The gluten-free dairy free options were so good. We will definitely go again a recommended chose by far.
I love this place. I have celiacs disease and have never had an issue eating there. They always add an extra little treat and they're always very friendly! Nothing bad to say, such a great meal for the price!
We had gone to a different place but it wasn’t opened but then we spotted this place was opened so we went here instead - so glad we did. It smelt great from the outside and it was very cosy inside. We were welcomed by someone friendly and sat at a nice table in the window. The menu had a lot of variety and choice. Including vegetarian, gluten free, and low spice options. The person serving us was very attentive and kind. We were not too sure what something was so she got a little dish of spice from the kitchen for us. I ordered a dish I had never had before and it was so tasty and delicious! We were all asked for the spice level that we wanted and our dishes really felt like they were made for us. There was also complimentary popadoms with sauce. We enjoyed the experience and will be back! Great service.
I am celiac and super sensitive. It was wonderful to be able to have a delicious burger wrapped with lettuce. Will definitely go again , thanks five guys
I went to this restaurant for a Deaf event. One of the servers new sign language and was able to serve the deaf people adequately and charismatically. As a gluten-free person, I had a delicious haddock taco and didn't feel the gluten-free options were any less delicious than the regular options! Prices are high, but fair for the overall experience. Will definitely be returning.
A quirky, fun neighbourhood coffee shop packed full of character! Decor and atmosphere were on point, and I loved every little detail. The gluten-free options were very tasty as well!
Great pizza, including an awesome gluten free crust that’s available. Fresh ingredients, custom options for the pizza and lots of other fare to choose from as well. Staff are simply awesome - friendly, helpful. Love having this restaurant in the neighbourhood.
A hidden treasure we just happened to find. Great place to meet up with friends in a pleasant, relaxed atmosphere. The service was amazing, and the food was excellent. My husband has celiac, and not only did he have gluten-free choices on the menu, he really enjoyed the food. Best of all, he didn't have any negative reactions. We'll definitely be going back whenever we're on Halifax.
The interior is beautiful, romantic enough, cozy, but the light is too dim for me (but this is my subjective opinion).
Location - the restaurant is located in the down town, i.e. in the city center, which, unfortunately, means the absence of its own parking lot and you have to look for it, and it is paid even on weekends.
Food - not very many, in fact, menu items if we are talking about the main dishes. There are few gluten-free dishes, which, for example, was a problem for us. We had to order soup and salad because we have restrictions on the types of meat we can eat and therefore, actually, vegetarian soup is all we could order. It was delicious, I have no complaints, but it's still a pity that there is such a limited selection of gluten-free meat dishes.
We ordered tea and I liked that the tea cup was warm (despite the fact that it was empty), and the tea was served separately in a teapot).
Service - everything here was top notch, the girl who served us was as attentive as possible, she knew the menu and the composition of the dishes well, she could tell us what dishes we could order, taking into account the restrictions we had.
But still, I deducted one star. I was out of paper towels. As always, in the restaurant there is a cloth napkin in which the cutlery is wrapped and which we put on our laps when we eat, but I cannot wipe my lips, for example, with that napkin, for this I need paper ones, but they were not on the table and no one offered . This is my humble opinion, it was uncomfortable for me. Well, the shortcomings of the menu that I wrote about above also played a role in the evaluation.
And in general, I can recommend this place, we liked it.
I wish this place had a more authentic Venezuelan decore but besides that its perfecto!! The Empanadas are super yummy and gluten free, in fact all the food is I believe. Great service and amazing owners and definitely a must reccomend when visiting the Waterfront of Halifax.

On vaycay from Vancouver B.C. doing the walk about at Pier21 and stopped into The BG.
Beautiful location, great atmosphere and friendly staff. Huge beverage menu!!
As celiac, it's challenging to find some safe eats away from home. I ordered the gf option Lobster Roll & fries and oh my lord.... fantastic 😋
Thanks for being aware of dietary restrictions for some 🥳
If I'm ever back out this way, will definitely come back.
I have had the pleasure of esting at Darya twice now and both experiences were wonderful. Amazing food and great service, such a beautiful restaursnt and you can't beat the location overlooking the harbour. One thing I love about Darya is that everyone can find something to enjoy on the menu, whether you are gluten free or vegan etc you aren't just stuck eating the one option for your needs on the menu, everyone is able to choose from a variety of dishes at Darya.
Nestled at the Halifax waterfront amongst historical buildings, the A Mano is a beautiful Italian restaurant that serves traditional fares with great pairings of wines and the usual beers.
Service is smooth overall, but we did have a small issue with a gluten-free order, which needed to be rectified.
We were a group of 8 and a wide selection of food was ordered.
The Schiacciata, Sgabello, Calamari Fritti were good and perfect for a chilly evening. As the main course, Quattro Carni, fresh Halibut with Shrimps, Lasagna, Lamb Shank, Seafood Stew and the Linguini were good. We were too full and ordered the share Torta Per Due cheesecake and were not disappointed .
Overall, good restaurant and great vibes for a chilled dinner next to the water.
This is such a wonderful place. The pizza is delicious, had the Mediterranean pizza, veggies so fresh. My sister is gluten intolerant and said their gluten free crust one of the best.
We'll be back again. 😁🍕
Exceptional Vegan and Gluten free fare. Clearly marked menu indicating options for different dietary needs, and truly delicious offerings across the board. Service was excellent, and the food was delightful - a little oasis of allergen-free goodness.
This Boston pizza did not disappoint, as a new celiac they ensured I would be able to eat at their location without worry. The food was good! Service was great we had both the manager and a server who were both wonderful! The atmosphere was like any other sports bar, very nice, not loud and friendly!
I was looking for a great cup of coffee and a bite to eat and noticed the good reviews and gluten free options. Sadly, I found the coffee underwhelming - very weak and flavorless. My GF breakfast sandwich tasted good and was delivered to the table by very personable staff but I found it to be expensive, for what it was. I also had a GF/vegan macaroon but it tasted nothing like a macaroon. It was very odd tasting making me wonder what I was ingesting. 🫢 Lastly, I wished I had not gone to the washroom; it was surprisingly dirty and did not appear to have been cleaned in a long while, a real turn off to eating there again. I thought I would like the place based on the reviews but there were just too many negatives for me.
I placed a catering order for my office. The food was very good, no issues there. I ordered and PAID for gluten free pita which I did not receive. When I brought this to the attention of the restaurant I was told we will make sure you get it next time. Sadly this is not something that my office does often so next would likely not be until next year. I was very disappointed with this response. Honestly I likely would not have left this review but the restaurant asked for a review so Im going to be honest and say that I was not overly happy with this order.

Have wanted to try this place out forever after hearing about them having Gluten Free options. So glad we did today! Tandoori chicken fries were delicious and the Kashmiri apple fries should be illegal. The flavour and texture are crave worthy. So so good! Can’t wait to come back. Make sure you go check it out!!

I came here with a group for lunch on the patio. The service was very friendly and helpful. The menu specified which options were vegan and gluten free. Some menu options were both.
Hands down the best brunch in Halifax. I’ve tried 6 of their dishes and every single one was perfect. One of my friends is celiac and the menu had so many amazing options, truly a gem.
This is a more upscale restaurant and reservations are encouraged. First off the service was impeccable and the ambiance quite nice, including the dishware. As for the food: we were 4 people and 3/4 had amazing meals. They were accommodating of all our dietary restrictions, both celiac and allergies. One of us ordered the steak which came out cold but they immediately replaced it. Even the second time the steak wasn't quite the cuisson ordered but at least it was warm. The appetizers were all fantastic so were the desserts. If it weren't for the one main. This place would have gotten a perfect score. I would give it 4.5 if I could award half points.
Cute coffee shop. They have inside seating and an outdoor patio. Lots of options for coffee and tea. We ordered a gluten free chocolate chip cookie which was definitely delicious. They have decks of cards available and cribbage boards to use. Was a nice cozy experience.
