I’ve never had a complaint about this place. Well, maybe that it’s not closer to my house 😂
Such good food, friendly service and some tasty gluten free options too!
We parked down the street in a parking lot that only accepted coins. $2/hr. (No cards accepted only coins)
When you first step foot in the door it's like being punched in the nose by an old moldy cloth. 🤢 Needless to say, we stuck around because we heard that that pop punk band 'Accident Prone' from the early 2000s has been seen there. 🤘
The staff are the cool kids you jammed with in school. Friendly enough and didn't seem to mind catering to our dietary restrictions of dairy-free and gluten-free. They were very accommodating.
If you are looking for Root Beer here, you won't find it. It's only Pepsi products (and even though Pepsi makes root beer, they didn't have it lol!)
The BEST thing about this visit.... APORKALYPSE NOW BURGER AND SWEET POTATO FRIES!!!!! I still dream of this pork on pork product. There is nothing as good as this. The burger patty is delicious, it's topped with regular bacon that was the perfect crisp and if that wasn't enough it was topped with chunky double smoked bacon (which I hope to be buried with one day). I swapped my provolone for vegan cheese (for those with broken bellies like me) And, if that wasn't enough.... they slather this little piggy in horseradish mayo!! Like what the funk?!? Who thinks of such a glorious burger lube?!? Bottle that and sell it, you'd make a killing!! I swapped the standard fries for sweet potato fries that came with a tasty dip and it was a match made on the farm!
I am STOKED that we stayed, that burger was like nothing I have ever eaten before. Thank you to whoever created it! It was simply gorgeous.
I hope to be back someday to enjoy that morsel once more!
To prefix, I want to say that the staff at The Burnt Tongue have ALWAYS been great to deal with and accommodating.
However, if you are a vegan, dairy free or have any dietary restrictions: AVOID THIS RESTAURANT 🚫
Their system for indicating vegan items is inherently busted. Items are marked with a “VVC” which translates to being vegan and celiac friendly on their little ordering guide.
With that said, they have a little asterisk (*) that says to check about daily specials on a dish.. or something along those lines. The signage is confusing as the asterisk doesn’t say “may change what dietary restrictions are accommodated by this dish.”
In my scenario, I ordered a soup marked as “VVC”… but there was cheese in the toppings. Whoever thought that putting dairy in a dish SPECIFICALLY NOTED as being vegan shouldn’t be allowed to add items to the menu.
Again, the staff were fantastic at getting me a refund and courteous when on the phone.
This doesn’t excuse the fact that The Burnt Tongue is negligently and FALSELY advertising dishes as being vegan/dairy free when they are, in fact, not. I should not have to ask if a vegan option is actually vegan.. this is dangerous to people who have severe food allergies and grossly incompetent.
I will not be returning until they can make the appropriate changes to the listing process for their menu items. I and advising friends and family to go elsewhere until that change is made, too.
We used to come here all the time - and it was great. Then last year we went and I noticed the gluten free pizza did not taste the same as it had. Took a break from Caro, then decided to give it another go, and it is disgusting. The gluten free dough *was* the best in the city (I’ve been gluten free for 10 years and tried many places), and it appears they changed the dough. Not sure why they would change it because the last 2 times it has been horrible. Couldn’t even finish a slice. Very disappointing! Will not be returning, and I no longer will be recommending Caro as a gluten free option
We have eaten weekend breakfast here on many occasions. The gluten free waffles are the best I've ever tasted. The coffee is great. The service is friendly. The seating is tight but worth the wait on a busy day.
8 of us went for a work gathering and I can't even begin to caution against here enough!
From being sat at the incorrect table and moved, to tables thag wobble and having to finally swap thw table ourselves (after mentioning this to our server)
To only.part.of our ppl getting a drink and others flagging one down, apparently the breaded cauliflower os now needed broccoli without even so much as a heads up.
Orders were screwy. Salads with wrong dressing x2, I'm gluten free and ordered no bun but.got.the bun and when this was pointed out I got.a dry overcooked -borderline burnt burger without and condiments.
Another of us ordered a salad.with grilled chicken only to be asked a whole.later again what protein she wanted.
We were asked 2 mins after getting our apps how we were doing but not again.
The restaurant was awful, service & food.
As we.are management from a local store celebrating this was very disappointing.
We try and support local businesses but we definitely will not be back.
decided to go to Caro
for a gluten free pizza tonight . server came to tell us they were out of at
least 3 items on the menu and many types of drinks
then waited to order -crickets
waited 20 min … no one took our order
we left … terrible service
sorry not sorry
I have to eat gluten free as I'm celiac & family members kindly picked me up some GF morning glory muffins from Paisley Cafe to try. Wow...best GF muffin I've ever had!!! I will be making the 45 minute drive to see them soon (& I suspect often!) to hopefully get more muffins & try whatever other GF delights they have! I wish I still worked at McMaster University so I could visit them every day!! :-)
**Update - visited in person - do be careful if celiac as server used same tongs on regular gluteny treats on the GF treats. I didn't notice the tongs weren't fresh until midway through server packing up my goodies & I ended up having to give away $30 worth of treats as I couldn't eat them. My bad, I should have asked server to use fresh tongs when I ordered.
We travelled 2 hours to eat dinner here. Destination choice. Us and our friends (4 top) The dining room was busy, loud and full of laughter. The Kitchen was on a lull when we sat down for our 7 pm table, as we had a front row seat to see what they are up to. What they are "up to" is a LOT. As is the whole restaurant. Great greeting at the door, good well timed and solid service by the whole team, table visit from the Manager to say hello and chat for a minute. Very well made drinks, good wine selection by the glass, big tables, nice big chairs. Details. They have these covered. As the second rush hit, and the Kitchen crew was heading into what I know was the second stretch of service in a 10+ hour day, they did not let up. All of the parts of the dishes we ordered had their full attention. The salad, venison carpaccio and squash fritters were delicious, proportional and looked fantastic. The frites on the burger and flat iron steak (both cooked as ordered, delicious and served hot) were crisp and seasoned. The gnocchi was so good my wife purposefully did not finish so she could take some home to have the next day and my duck leg had crispy skin, soft delicious meat and slightly textured cabbage, with potatoes, proper lardons and a balance of tart mustard. There was dessert too after all of that great food, a smooth and full-of-real-vanilla-bean brulee and a light lemon tart. Espresso martinis after the meal instead of coffee. I am a full blown celiac diner who understands that there will be dishes that I just cannot have and yet I had numerous menu choices as well as un-requested thoughtful additions provided (gluten free crackers for my carpaccio) This is a restaurant business that you can go to knowing that all of the people that are here are working to put out the very best over-all experience they can, and have been doing so for the past several years. In a changing time of eating out and deciding where to go and what to get, my wife put it perfectly - "Go somewhere that can exceed your expectations" The French does just that.
SO rude. falsely advertised gluten free menu and then IDing my family and I when we are clearly 21 and over. pompously and thinks they are above everyone. we left and didn’t even order . what a joke. not loyal to locals.
They just put out a summer menu and it was excellent. Best to go with a group and share. They were able to accommodate for my celiac. Try the whipped feta. It was out of this world. The waitress was lovely and we didn’t need for anything.

Everything here is 11/10. Definitely get the salmon sushi and then watch yourself want a second one. Fries are a must. The PB espresso martini is painfully good. And they are exceptional at managing celiac/gluten intolerance. Great every time - thank you guys!
Great place my wife is gluten free and they served us a great breakfast i like the button system for the less fortunate we donated $10 today toward it keep up the good wor
ALL their waffles are GF gluten free by default. Default was never so delicious as this! The Belgium Waffles had a perfect texture with a buttery moist chewy yet delicate airy interior and a crispy golden exterior. You can't make them better than this! Yum!! Thank you for sharing your talent 🙏
Excellent food, excellent service.
My wife and I held our rehearsal dinner at the Motel Restaurant and it was a great time. The vibes were really great, the service was excellent, and the food, wow the food.
The food was outstanding, they also had some excellent vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free options for our wedding party who have those dietary restrictions. This was good quality food too, these restrictions were not an after thought they clearly made meals taste good with said restrictions and our guests loved them.
I would recommend booking your next event or dinner night at Motel Restaurant!
My first time here and I will definitely be back. We dined in, but there was a lot of takeout happening as well. People really love this place.
I was thrilled to learn that most things here are gluten-free. Absolutely delicious and lots and lots of options.
Paulhul Kari pikka - tendo grilled chicken and herbs and spices and it was amazing

The food here is fantastic,
They have fresh authentic mexican dishes with many options including gluten free an extensive dedicated vegan/vegetarian menu which is not common for most mexican restaurants!
I tried the tacos and they were fresh, tasty and came with authetic dips, birria juice and authentic mexican spice dip,
They also had amazing fresh juices like strawberries berry and mango and much more
The service was very friendly and fast,
I will highly recommend!
First visit for brunch with friends and it was very disappointing...no coffee because their coffee machine was not working. The menu and reservation form indicates they have gluten free options and yet they had no gluten free bread/buns, so my eggs benny came without an English muffin. Overall, not a great experience.
Our server Gabby was amazing and so attentive as I am gluten free, she made sure everything was going well. She checked on us a few times and was making sure we were in the loop about our food and timing, I appreciated that.
Also, I have never seen a manager be so active, Mike was running plates out to people, checking on people, we even saw him wiping the counter in the washroom. This was soo amazing! This is by far our favourite keg location out of all we have visited (hamilton, niagara falls, missisauga, toronto) and we will continue to come to this one.
We first ate at Baci in 2021 when only room service was available. It was a great experience and the food was really good. So for my birthday we came back so we could eat in the restaurant. My wife had the cod ( gluten free) and it was terrific. I had the Bolognese which was also very tasty but large enough that I am looking forward to having it again tonight at home!!
I should add that the service was also outstanding.
Clean, well managed and good value for the money. I like my pork not so well done but I understand that restaurants have to be cautious and not everyone likes pork on the pink side. The portions were good and they have gluten free rice-based pasta that my wife enjoyed. They even had GF bread to make a garlic toast! We each had a drink and found them to be reasonably priced too. So many establishments are gouging on that element now. We weren't expecting much from initial impressions but we ended up pleasantly surprised and would definitely go back if opportunity presented it.
Moved into the neighbourhood a couple months ago, have ordered take out from here a few times now. Haven’t been disappointed. The portions are great, food is very flavourful and delicious. A great variety of vegetables in their dishes and the chicken is good quality! also really appreciate how they have options for vegan or gluten free. Highly recommend !
Gluten free pizza is really good, and sized correctly. Other places have very small GF pizzas, but these ones are medium sized and reasonably priced. I also like that they now have a few grocery items that you can buy with your order. I got a couple heads of lettuce to make my own salad and some really good marinated olives.
Ordered pizza from here for the family. It was delicious. I like that the pizza is not too saucy, the crust if fluffy and the toppings were abundant. I also love that they offer a gluten free option as well, it really made it easy to have the whole family involved in the pizza night! 10/10 would go again
Food was meh this time. Wings were tough, rubbery. Fries were not crispy. What's wrong with the blue cheese dip? It's the oddest grey colour. Potato skins were alright.
I do like that there's a gluten free fryer and a few decent options for gluten free "pub fare" but this time we were underwhelmed. We probably sont hurry back.
Hambrgr had great selection for burgers and were even able to easily accommodate my gluten dietary restriction with a delicious bun substitute. I ordered the Hawaiian Punch burger and it truly was one of the best burgers I've had in a long time. The pulled pork's BBQ sauce and sweet pineapples balanced out the saltiness of the fried onion topping and savoury beef burger.
Side caesar salad was a little pricey at $6.00 for a small salad but was tasty and wasn't overwhelmed with too much dressing. I would order it again.
Overall, Hambrgr is a great value for a gourmet burger and worth spending a couple extra dollars for a premium meal. I have gone twice and will be back.
Exceptional customer service in all aspects. Waitress took my dietary concern very seriously and addressed the kitchen staff with it. My issue concerning their strawberry cheesecake gluten free dessert was very competently resolved and I needn't have been so worried. Much thanks 🙏 to all for making my experience very enjoyable and health conscious too.
I've stopped by a few times, and Peruviano is consistently delicious, and safe for gluten-intolerant people.
On Tuesdays, they have $15 tacos for three (pork belly, cauliflower/veggie, and chicken) -- and it was well worth it if you're feeling peckish.
They also have half priced appetizers with the purchase of a full entree (which are huge portion and delicious!). Would recommend to anyone who wants to support a local small business, high quality food, and Peruvian restaurant.
The selection of fresh and prepared Gluten free, organic and healthy foods and items is extraordinary. Prices are ok and they do offer sale promotions that are marked well. They offer a newsletter and email subscription that sends just the right amount of emails.. The multiple locations in Hamilton are convenient when doing errands. GM now has a loyalty card ; I didn't sign up at my last visit since I was in a rush and today I did a big shop. Unfortunately I forgot to ask to sign up before the clerk had rung up my order. Thankfully, the other clerk asked if I wanted to sign up to loyalty for discounts at which point I remembered and did so. It was a quick process to sign up, however, I was very disappointed that I couldn't receive the discount since my clerk didn't ask before my order was rung up. I hope clerks remember to ask customers before sales are rung ind, particularly since the loyalty program is a new offering.
This was our first time here and all 4 of us enjoyed everything about our experience. We loved the atmosphere and the food was delicious. We had the cod, hamburger, salmon and braised beef. They had a number of options in the main dishes for my gluten free needs. Presentation was great too. Such a fun night!
Our niece planned their wedding at the Ancaster Mill Chapel and reception in the Mill. It was spectacular.
For sure the bride and groom were so thoughtful in their selections but the Mill delivered. The location is beautiful with the mill stream and stone work stairs. The staff we kind, busy making our event special- the staff were happy to be there and knew how to support a good party.
The food - excellent., complimentary the chef/kitchen team, you should be proud of your skill and care. I enjoyed the hors d’Oeuvres - several gluten free options all scrumptious. At the meal the salad was a feature- seeds and glazed walnuts, pomegranate seeds fresh green with a roasted squash base - wow. I had the prime rib. Again it was a treat.
We had a great time. Thank you!
Swarma chicken is so good! So is falafel and bacon. I always enjoy pita pit it's my #1 go too for take out because I am gluten free. They have gluten free pita's.
This is my second time coming here, unfortunately the restaurant is so far away from my house or I would order once a week. My husband and I drive all the way from St. Catharines and it is 100% worth the drive. The food is perfect, the service is amazing. The gentleman who is serving is always extremely attentive, welcoming and accommodating. Also, if you are gluten-free the injera is gluten friendly which makes this place even better. 10/10!
Owner is always there to make sure service and food is top quality. Very clean, very fresh. I get gluten free and they are very careful not to cross contaminate.
We held our annual charity golf event at FH-GC this year and I couldn't be happier...
Ryan Wilson (Executive Professional) and his staff did an amazing job accommodating us. The course was in excellent condition for the first day of Autumn and the facilities at Flamborough are first rate. You definitely get the feeling your playing and dining at a private course. Lisa Dejonge (Food and Beverage Manager) was great to deal with and also very accommodating with requests for people with food allergies (Celiac) and plant based diets. We received excellent feedback from the participants and even the guests that came after for the drinks and socializing on the beautiful patio after golf. FH-GC is an excellent facility to host your golf tournament or just enjoy one of their three 9 hole courses. Thanks again for being great hosts, look forward to coming back in 2024
Sincerely
Paul Valvasori

The service was ok, server looked like she wasn't very happy, forced smile..
Let's talk about the food, my child's grill cheese was burnt, had to send it back, but got a replacement but that was even worse, not very happy my child was looking at us while we were eating,
Chicken porteblo mushroom, the chicken was so dry and crusty, hardly any gravy sauce..
The steak was ok, but no steak knife instead I used the regular knife..
I had a gluten allergy, I had the chicken med with chickpea again the chicken was burnt on the other side and I guess the cook tried to hide it...
Very disappointed with the service, food, and no smiles...
Will not return..
I wanted to ask for a refund..
