What a find! We came here for lunch and were super impressed. Great service, super accommodating for both our kids and also making sure all food was coeliac safe. Had good knowledge of gluten free food and special needs for someone with coeliacs disease. And, the food was super delicious! Will definitely be back!

Possibly the best Mexican restaurant going around, always try and make a stop off here when visiting Ballarat from Melbourne. The vegetarian and Gluten Free options are spot on. The atmosphere is a vibe and the staff are super friendly. Would recommend the Pabellon Criollo!

I love going to Schnitz. The gluten free options are so yummy and full of flavour! The Ballarat Sturt street store staff are so friendly and welcoming making the experience that much more amazing! Love it.

Must-go restaurant in Ballarat. I’ve never had Ethiopian food but if all Ethiopian food is like this then I’m going to try a lot more! Had the selection for 2 people and was absolutely delicious. The beef and chicken stews and lentil dishes were highlights for us. Owner was a complete powerhouse - I think he was doing front of house and cooking. Everything other than the bread is gluten free, which was fantastic as a coeliac. Highly recommend!!!

Really really bad service, waiting for 10 mins for menus waiting 10-15 mins for a waiter to take my order, no table service had to continual ask for things like cutlery, water etc. And to top it all off they stuffed up the order........Fuming AND the wait staff were busy running around doing minimal cleaning work or talking or throwing stuff to the other staff behind me. Like i was at a football event To put this into context it was not busy, just badly staffed and disorganized Really really disappointed I did order Gluten Free so fingers crossed my son does not get sick because if he does I will be making an official complaint!!

A surprise package in Ballarat, far exceeding my expectations, when we celebrated a friend's birthday at Ragazzone last night, sharing the chef's special selection. What a treat, especially for me as my gluten free dietary requirements were expertly catered for.

Fantastic food and atmosphere. The service was lovely. Catered gluten free for my son who has Coeliac Disease and he loved the food as well. Cannot rate this place high enough. Best spanish food we have ever had.

First visit. Awesome fun. Great entertainment and drinks, food a bit limited for people with allergies though. Pls provide at least SOME vegetarian dishes WITHOUT garlic, and more gluten-free. Thanks. Then would be 5 stars 100%

Gluten Free pancakes were some of the best. Good location in town.

Our family of 6 came here for a meal last Friday night, my grandson’s choice for his 12th birthday. All our meals were delicious and with one member of the family a diagnosed coeliac all care was taken to ensure cross contamination was not an issue. Steak cooked perfectly as ordered, ribs, wings and all selections were tasty and well presented. Service by Cyndal was outstanding! A pleasant, friendly and professional staff member who is an asset to her employer. We had a great evening particularly due to her very attentive service. Thanks Cyndal.

lovely and cozy for a cold day, such a cool place. Great gluten free options. Halloumi chips took us all by surprise, so yum.

What a little surprise this gem was! Had a recommendation as they have a number of gluten free dishes on the menu. The bulgogi tacos were some of the best tacos we have ever had. Very fresh and the soft corn tacos did not break apart. The lamb ribs fell straight off the bone ans had a nice little spice kick to them (if you don't like spice maybe see if they can do them without the sauce and chilli). Decent selection of beers, a cider and a ginger beer on tap. I opted for a cocktail special for the Begonia festival and it was dressed to impress!

Maria Moraca

Excellent experience in every way. The food was some of the best I've had anywhere; wine pairings were perfect and explained in a very down-to-earth manner; the wines by the glass list was extensive, as well. Service was perfect, and the atmosphere was cosy. Pre-set menu, but there's a vegetarian version available and they'll also cater to gluten intolerances. Really high-end dining without being stuffy. We don't live in Ballarat but will absolutely be back and would plan a weekend trip around eating here any time.

Great experience at Bagels and More. The team couldn’t have been more helpful with checking allergens and they had a great Gluten Free bagel which wasn’t an outrageous surcharge. Enjoyed the HLT, was a hit. Thanks for the great service, Team!

Gluten free burritos and gluten quesadillas!!! && they are sooooo yummy! The food tastes delicious and it looks like they cater for all! Regular folks, gluten-free legends like me, vegan and vegetarian peeps. Honestly this find has made my soul and tummy so happy! Thank you! Chicken burrito recommend too! No option to select it.

This is the best burger joint in town. The charcoal grilled burgers are delicious, and moderately priced. The gluten-free burger bread is really good, nice and soft. The service is excellent and quick. If you have dietary issues, including being vegetarian, you will be taken care of here. The place is new and talking to the owner I have been told that it will be jazzed up inside. But I go there for the great food, not the decor. By the way, the meats they use are of the best quality available. Please, try it out, eating in or take away. You won't regret it, simply because their burgers are simply delicious, with the smokey aroma of charcoal grilled meat. What more can you ask for?
