10/10. The fish tacos are my #1 choice, always. Such a great experience at the Burlington location, our server was so attentive and did a remarkable job accommodating our daughters gluten allergy.
We just stopped in here for a burger and fires. Food was awesome, Jenna got me exactly what I had in mind and it was waaay better than expected.
Also FYI the gravy is gluten free and AMAZING
CAUTION IF YOU HAVE FOOD ALLERGIES!!!
1 week ago today I was at this location and ordered from the gluten free menu. Coconut Curry bowl chicken. The waitress assured me that this was gluten free. 40 minutes later I was extremely sick! The next day I called and spoke to the manager and they were very apologetic and we're going to send me an email with the free meal for the next time. I received no email and I definitely will not be returning!!! Check your spices and don't use spices that may contain wheat or gluten!! If you have a gluten problem I would avoid this restaurant all together they are not transparent. Thankfully I didn't go into anaphylactic shock. Zero stars on how poorly this was handled. I will also add the dirty plate that was given to my daughter with the celery carrots and apples!!.. I sure hope they're not reusing food and plates!
This place is absolutely amazing.
I have Celiac and there are SO many gluten-free options!
My absolute favorite is the crispy fried fish tacos.
The staff is very knowledgeable and super friendly and this place has turned into my favorite restaurant in the city. All of the margaritas are amazing but their hibiscus is by far the best one.
You could order anything and not be disappointed here.
A Must-Visit in Burlington, ON
My best friend and I had our first dinner at Loondock’s in Burlington and it absolutely won us over. We're both foodies (one gluten-free, one not), and the staff (Shout out to Leslie) who went above and beyond to accommodate us. Our server was friendly, well-informed, and truly knowledgeable about Celiac Disease and gluten-free safety, which made a huge difference in our experience.
The kitchen even split every shared dish so we could each enjoy them safely. That kind of thoughtful service is rare.
Here’s what we ordered and LOVED:
🦆 Duck on Taro Chip: perfectly cooked, tender, and packed with flavor.
🧀 Baked Brie: gooey, rich, served hot in a cast iron skillet with tons of tasty dipping options.
🥩 Pork Tenderloin: juicy, well-seasoned, and roasted to perfection.
🍮 Pro Tip: Get the French Toast Crème Brûlée: you won’t regret it. Sweet, creamy, caramelized, and unforgettable.
This place is a hidden gem in Burlington with upscale dishes, cozy vibes, and top-tier service. Whether you're gluten-free or not, Loondock’s delivers a memorable and delicious dining experience.
Highly recommend, we’ll be back soon!

Went with another family for breakfast, 2 Kids, our orders were incomplete, the amount of egg on the skillets were a joke, ordered gluten free toast with an obvious added up charge but gave us one piece... for $4 or more, manager interrupted me by just starting to talk to the server while I was trying to order my meal, Kids enjoyed the food, fruit was fresh, but for their prices it was a let down
Best place for a quick healthy option. Love it since my girlfriend is gluten free so there isnt much of 'fast food' option but this definitely is and its amazing. Staff is super friendly and store has a great atmosphere and neat setup.
If you're in Burlington and need a go-to spot for all your dietary essentials, Goodness Me is it! They've got everything I need for my health-focused diet—fresh, wholesome, and packed with options you won't find anywhere else.
Whether you're after organic, gluten-free, or keto-friendly goodies, this store has you covered. The staff? Super helpful and knowledgeable, making the shopping experience a breeze. Healthy eating just got a whole lot easier—and tastier!
Oh, bring a sweater bc you may need it.
Had a tasty frittata for lunch, with an espresso & gluten-free bread. The atmosphere was cozy and relaxing, and the service was great, so we decided to stay for dessert. The flourless chocolate cake was quite rich, which was nicely paired with fresh fruit and whipped cream. Would definitely return!

Turtle Jack’s is a solid spot I’ve been to multiple times, often before a weekly event with a friend. The burgers are consistently good, and the staff are always friendly. The atmosphere is cozy, and pricing is reasonable for what you get.
One standout item I’d recommend is their New York Style burger—it comes with a thick slice of bacon or cold cut, and it’s seriously delicious. They also offer a gluten-free menu, which is helpful if you ask for it.
Overall, it’s a reliable and comfortable place to grab a bite in the area.
Newly renovated. Very fresh. Excellent menu. Good gluten free options. At lunch the booth was quiet enough for conversation with our friends. Prompt attentive service. Plan to visit again.
Really nice restaurant. I got the blackened chicken burger on gluten free bun. Had to request waitress to ensure it was also dairy free. They accommodated my dietary restrictions really well and I really enjoyed the burger. They do tend to be busy so better to book ahead a table for yourself.
Amazing food! 100% we will be ordering from here on the regular. Delicious food, and super generous portions! Vic Caters & Bakery will not disappoint. It’s also worth mentioning they have awesome Gluten free options! Thank you Vic’s! :)
I ordered pad thai through skip the dishes the other night and there was a little bit of a mix up in the request I made. I first have to say that it is truly one of the best and thai in Burlington!! I am also gluten free and it is completely gluten free.
Upon calling the restaurant to talk about the misunderstanding in my dish, the owner himself was apologetic and came to my house to deliver a new dish. He was extremely polite and apologetic but showed so much care. During these times of a pandemic I can especially appreciate the extra care put into food being prepared. If you haven't tried them yet, I highly recommend
Had a dinner on the terrace recently. Excellent environment out there in the evening. Different vibe than inside which had a bit more energy (e.g. less leisurely). Thought the wine list was good. The crab cakes could do with a bit more seasoning and aioli. The entrees were a good size. The chocolate mousse also very yummy. They were able to accommodate a gluten free requirement on most dishes.
Would return.
Staff server, Prakash was friendly, kind and helpful with suggesting menu selections. The place is bright and clean and the food was amazing! Will definitely be coming back. Love that they have dietary options with gluten and dairy free restrictions.
My favourite restaurant. Amazing staff, amazing food! The staff is very considerate about my gluten allergy and takes a high precaution when preparing my food here.
Always a great experience! Love that they have a gluten free pita, and they are always so kind & helpful in ensuring there’s no cross contamination!it’s nice to have a quick safe place to grab food! 🙏🏻
This young man is an absolute legend and this chip truck is an institution. Just shared a large poutine which was massive - the chips are thick cut to hold up to the weight of the cheese and combat any risk of sogginess from the gravy. Absolutely perfect. My wife is celiac so unfortunately the gravy is not gluten free but they use a dedicated fryer for the chips. We brought it home and used our own GF brown gravy. So delicious. 10/10 highly recommend. My ONLY gripe would be that they don’t accept credit card - however he does accept email money transfer which is a great alternative for a cash/debit only setup
The menu looks to be revamped recently BUT there are no indicators for Gluten Free on the menu. They do have GF flat breads and burger buns so that was a plus.
Went to this establishment on Friday June 28 2024. We have never tried this restaurant but were early for lunch which gave my wife the opportunity to ask about gluten free options (celiac). The server reassured my wife that the kitchen was very careful when cooking for a person with celiac. When my wife’s appetizer came she questioned the preparation of the dish. The server spoke to the kitchen and we were told that “the boys” only usually work at night and she had the dish redone. (A clean pan was not used) Long story short, my wife was glutened which makes her sick for about 3 weeks. I ordered a the fresh turkey sandwich which was made with cheap smelly deli meat. If you are celiac please don’t eat there as the kitchen has zero concern for dietary issues. Will never go back
Super.Great Steaks service was tremendous.I.have celiack disease went above and beyond to.make my Birthday Dinner Special.From.out of town.Will visit again when.i come back.
Pizza Pizza is my go-to spot for a quick and affordable meal! They have a wide variety of options, from classic pizzas to gluten-free and vegan choices, so there’s something for everyone. I love their crispy wings and the different crust styles they offer. Delivery is usually fast, and the food arrives hot and fresh. It’s not gourmet, but for the price, it’s reliable and consistent. Perfect for casual nights or feeding a crowd. Highly recommend if you’re looking for good value and convenience!
Tried CIMA midweek for family dinner. Food was great, service was great, restaurant comfortable, prices reasonable. We had a mix of pizza/pasta with one being gluten free. Feedback from all was amazing. Will be back!
First time ordering from here. Ordered shawarma and gluten free chicken and rice. The service was warm and friendly. The restaurant was clean, organized and well-run. The food itself was very tasty and filling. Will definitely return here again!
I'm very impressed with this place. I normaly don't leave reveiws, but after 3 visits at this location I've got to. The staff have all been welcoming and understanding of my gluten allergy. The food has also been very good every time I've come by. Great job! :)
## District Kitchen and Bar: Great Wings, Consider Gluten-Free Options!
**Friendly Service and Safe Wings:**
District Kitchen and Bar impressed with their attentive and friendly staff. They were proactive in checking for dietary needs and confirmed their delicious chicken wings are safe for gluten-free diners. This was a huge plus for our visit!
**Winging It:**
The star of the show was definitely the wings! They were excellent and highly recommended. It's something to consider, but the quality of the wings might make it worth it for some.
**Room for Improvement:**
While the staff did confirm the wings themselves are gluten-free, it would be fantastic if the restaurant could expand their gluten-free options to include the sauces. This would make District Kitchen and Bar an even more attractive choice for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
**Overall Impression:**
Despite the slightly high price point and limited gluten-free sauce options, we very much enjoyed our visit to District Kitchen and Bar. The friendly, accommodating staff and the excellent wings make it a place we'd definitely return to.
**Recommendation:**
This restaurant is perfect for those seeking delicious wings in a welcoming atmosphere. Just be aware that the wings can be pricey, especially for larger appetites. For those with gluten-free needs, double-check sauce options as they may not all be safe.
