Top 50 Gluten-Free Dining Spots Across Ottawa

Daniel Gosher

I come here frequently and have yet to be disappointed. The food is always good, portions are very fair, top notch selection for gluten-free food. Can't find a place like this anywhere else. Cozy vibe, great service, and wholesome food. All of these factors make it a pleasure to support the business.

Always buy the GF pep talk pizza. Safe for celiacs. Never had any issues.

THIS PLACE IS THE BEST!!! The people here are so kind and the food is so good. They also offer gluten free options and make their spicy mayo sauce fresh. I definitely suggest coming to check this place out, definitely worth it.

I went there, they told me they were not dedicated. Half of the kitchen is gluten free, and the other 1/2 is not. This listing needs to be updated. Can you please update this listing ?

Food was delicious! I’m gluten and dairy free and they were super accommodating! Gluten free pasta with no dairy it was great! Even had an amazing Cesar salad without parm or croutons. Did not expect this for a sit and order spot. Atmosphere makes you feel like you’re actually sitting in a restaurant but it’s so affordable (Pasta $13 + $6 protein pre-tax). Staff are so kind and friendly, food was prepared quickly and without errors. Music is a great vibe and it’s very clean. Definitely coming back!!

Great costumer service and very celiac friendly menu.

Service was excellent, atmosphere is lovely, cocktails delicious (need to go back to sample them all!), my main was delicious and beautifully plated, the desserts (I had one and sampled two others in my group) were very good but not amazing, but then I’m not celiac so I may have noticed differences in taste and texture compared to gluten-containing equivalents. Overall, I would definitely go back for drinks, apps and dinner, but I might pass on dessert or go down the street for a gelato to spread the local business support around. VIV is a great option for anyone who can’t have gluten but also a delicious and fun option for anyone who likes a nice cocktail and delicious, thoughtfully prepared food. Nice wine list too.

We had a Christmas get-together with our bowling group on December 19, 2024. The staff are amazing 👏, they went above and beyond service! The chef expressly made my own plate of gluten-free nachos 😋 THANK YOU! Love Chances R Lynn-Marie Shapcott Kanata

Stan Cheer

WOW, Gluten-Free (GF) fried chicken, GF mac and cheese, GF burgers, etc and GF fish and chips on Friday. What a great optionin Stittsville

Hadiza B.

The burgers are super good! They also have gluten free buns for the burger (Celiac friendly indeed).

K B

What a hidden gem! Might be my new favourite lunch spot. I tried the honey hot, not too spicy, very fresh ingredients, crunchy and juicy chicken. I love that it's gluten free too. I'll bring my gluten free friends next time. Oh, and the donuts are not to be missed! Totally stuffed with high quality filling. So fresh!

Mike L

Had the best gluten-free burger I've had in ages! And it was the High Priest burger, which is a fantastic replication of a Big Mac, except it was the kind of Big Mac you dream of: big, juicy patties, real cheese, and clearly real diced onions in the classic Mac sauce. As someone who has been gluten-free for fifteen years, this "Big Mac" High Priest was a real treat! And to boot, the french fries have a dedicated deep fryer! They were SO tasty... Not McDonald's fries but comparable to the best chip wagon fries I've had in town. Definitely going back. Strongly recommend! 👍👍

Amenda Soucy

My favorite gluten free poutine, the best in town for sure !

j migneault

Wow, very good, excellent, what can I say about the service, our waitress, she served us in French, gluten-free menu, congratulations to all the staff

Fiona Clydesdale

We had an amazing dinner here with my coeliac daughter. Very aware of cross contamination. Used fresh oil for our poppadoms and chicken pakora. Large selection of curries. Manager brought out all the GF portions.

Emily Puckett

As someone with celiac disease it’s hard to eat out, but my server Alexis provided me with all the gluten free options they had and took all the extra steps to make sure I felt safe to eat!

Christine Skelly

Great burger and wings. Gluten free bun. Very flavourful! Good atmosphere A little slow but no complaints with golf on the screen and good company Will be back for fish and trips

Moe McIlwain

Nice bright open space to enjoy a meal. I had the smash burger with gluten free bread and salad on the side… very tasty. Don’t feel bloated … very fresh. Highly recommend.

Anthony Liberatore

My friend and I had such a great time catching up this past Sunday night! We enjoyed two celiac-friendly burgers and our server was so gracious, attentive, professional, and hospitable. She allowed us to sit at a table to see with a clear view of my bike that was chained up outside (I wanted to keep an eye on it!). Overall, a courteous experience that allowed us to make quality memories and the food was great and allergy safe! We will be back!

Melissa-Ann Ledo

Best burgers in town! Amazing with kiddos and gluten free allergy!

Emily

We had a great experience dining at Joey Rideau! Our food was delicious. Highly recommend the steak frites (this dish is also celiac safe, if you cannot have gluten). Our server Daphne was very kind and made sure that we enjoyed everything! We were celebrating our anniversary and it was lovely.

Meghan van Aardt

im pretty new to the city, and i was craving authentic dosa. a friend had recommended i try east india company and i was so happy to find a spot that not only offers delicious dosa but brunch!! the buffet was amazing (the lamb curry alone stole my heart) there is clear indication on the buffet for which dishes contain gluten or dairy (great for my dairy intolerant/celiac mom who rarely finds places that she can trust to eat at without risk) the restaurant is beautifully decorated, nice and bright and the service was outstanding - our server rheo was very attentive and friendly and everyone greeted us with a smile. we loved the ambiance and will definitely go back!

Savas Usta

A beloved place for the entire family, featuring tasty crepes with a gluten-free choice. Excellent coffee and enjoyable conversation with friendly staff.

Gelila Marshall-Ende

This place is phenomenal! Options for vegetarians, injera is already gluten free. The service is impeccable, the food is delicious, they even roast coffee and the aroma fills the place! I come here and love it

Very good Italian cuisine. The service is exceptionally fast and knowledgeable about gluten-free options. I only wanted a few minutes between the salad and the main course, which was a bit too quick for me personally. It was very clean and the ambiance was nice.

Jenn Z

Easily able to accommodate gluten free and other allergies, very tasty and filling.

Paul Marchand

Wonderful dessert place with many dairy free and gluten free options. We tried a great piece of chocolate cake. We also had a brownie and a piece of chocolate truffle cake. Yummy!

Talha ASI

Delicious pizzas. Great gluten-free options.

Nadia Larouche

The service here is fantastic. The menu changes with the season, which keeps it fresh and interesting. The menu is very gluten friendly, with lots of excellent substitutions. They are by far the most accommodating restaurant for gluten sensitivities.

Bryan Beecham

Lots of options for Gluten Free diets. Even GF beer available. Scottish standards available.

The food was okay, but our experience was disappointing. It was a very busy evening at the restaurant, making it difficult to have a conversation due to the noise level. We had to speak very loudly just to hear each other. For dessert, we ordered five gluten-free cheesecakes (four for takeout and one to try at the restaurant) and one cinnamon bun with ice cream. After tasting the cheesecake and the cinnamon bun, we decided we didn’t like the cheesecake’s flavor and asked to change our takeout order of four gluten-free cheesecakes to four cinnamon buns with ice cream instead. We informed the waiter that we had tried one cheesecake and didn’t enjoy the taste, so we no longer wanted the four cheesecakes for takeout. However, the waiter insisted that we still had to pay for the cheesecakes because they had already been boxed. While they offered a 10% discount if we wished to purchase the cinnamon buns, we found this resolution unsatisfactory. Overall, we left feeling very disappointed with the experience.

Popped in for a quick batch of fries. I am Celiac and Five Guys are the only fries guarantied Gluten Free. I was sitting there eating away facing the staff and just watching them work. Then it hit me how they were all smiling, enjoying their job. They all had clean aprons on. The young man who took my order was so polite. Then I noticed him brooming around the tables, cleaning the fountain area. The whole place is clean!! To top it off, I then used the washroom and it was also spotless in there. I have never seen a fast food restaurant so well kept and so clean. Obviously they train their employees well. I made of point of asking to speak to the Manager (Emily) and told her she has a great team here and it doesn't go unnoticed. Great place, Great atmosphere, Great Food! Highly recommend!

Sweet baby Jesus, I’ve been to Italy as my point of reference: this pizza was orgasmic. The truffle honey with the saltiness of the crisp pepperoni with the creamy mozzarella? A trifecta of goodness. The gluten free crust? So good I couldn’t tell it was GF. I’m not from Ottawa and this was a gem to discover. Bravo to the pizza nerds.

Marialicia

Great options for gluten free poutine! So delicious and so fresh. The portion size was also incredibly generous! 10/10 would recommend 😊

Amiet Chevrier Gill

Amazing chefs they do gluten-free for celiac disease. Absolutely love this place had a great great brunch. Everything on the menu looks so good. I had the shot shashukah. It was absolutely amazing. I highly recommend this place. Ask for Joey great server.

We had a terrible experience at Del Piacete over the italian week weekend. Our waitress was unprofessional, yawning while taking our order and never checking on us. Despite arriving before other customers, we waited 50 minutes for our food while watching others get served first. Both of our pizzas had a couple mussels that smelled and tasted absolutely rotten. Beyond this serious food safety issue, my gluten-free pizza was also completely undercooked. When I complained, the waitress said reheating it might burn it so she gave me the option of either burned or undercooked. The chef explained they use new rice-based GF dough that “doesn’t cook well” - even after returning it to the oven, it remained inedible. To their credit, they removed the undercooked pizza from our bill when I asked not to pay for it. However, the restaurant feels dated with sticky tables, and the high prices don’t match the poor service and atmosphere. This was my second visit and will definitely be my last.

Lovell Pinto

I can't say enough nice things about this restaurant. I was in the area for business and stopped here for dinner. I ordered the mahi mahi fish entree and it was arguably one of the best meals of my life. The service is very quick, professional and outstanding. What impressed me the most was the attention and care they take when preparing and serving meals for gluten-free (GF) diners like me. They can prepare must dishes GF upon request. Seldom have I witnessed such attention to detail with precautions taken. The GF cheesecake dessert was something to die for. I want to travel back to Kanata merely to dine at this location. Thank you Moxie's!
