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!

Went for the Nutella noodle cheesecake (March 11-5, 2025 only) and left with the peanut butter cheesecake too. Sweet Hereafter is an adorable cheesecake and coffee/tea restaurant, perfect for a date, catch up, late night dessert or to take out. It’s a ‘Ma and Pa’ business, locally owned and operated and the Pa makes all the recipes. And they have gluten free options. They’re closed on Sundays and Mondays so plan ahead. So glad it’s on my dessert choice list now!

Jules Wood

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.

Theresa Burris

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.

Brittany Lambert

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.

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!

Particia Wiley

Soul Urge Revolution

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.

Dowobeha

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.

Fay Rolfe

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.

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.

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.

Tario Sultan

Absolutely love this place! The staff are super friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. The space is big, clean, and has a great atmosphere, perfect for a quick bite or a relaxed meal. I tried the smoothie and a burrito, and both were absolutely amazing. You can really taste the freshness in every bite. Highly recommend Harvest if you’re looking for healthy (vegan, gluten free), delicious food in Halifax!

Incredible cocktails, crazy good food. Lots of gluten free/ celiac options. Make a reservation though - it's small and hard to get a table!

We heard this place was good for gluten free but the menu was not marked to show what is or can be modified to be gluten free. When we asked our server, they really had no idea. They had to go get someone else to talk to us but did that after we ordered based on what they said. The food was fine but if you aren't going to mark your menu, your staff must be versed but really? Just mark it on the menu.
