Top 23 Gluten-Free Taco Spots to Enjoy in Ottawa

Dan Macdonald

Chose 4 tacos (pastor, gringa, camaron, tinga) and they were all excellent. The mariachi band was fun. Absolutely worth a visit. And it’s gluten free approved!

Super fun place, great food, great service. Had a blast. 100% Gluten Free. Huge, varied menu. Great cocktails, lots of flavours of margaritas. All serviced super fast, super friendly. Cannot wait for patio season to enjoy the food and drinks in the sun... but the interior is decorated very festively. I'll be back!

Ok seriously this place is exceptional. I was surprised that it wasn't advertised anywhere on the street, but when I tried their food I saw why no advertising was needed. It's home cooked meals, original dishes and drinks, and such a friendly service you feel like family. It was packed within a few minutes of getting there, but it didn't get too loud. You could still hold a conversation easily without raising your voice. Cherry on top of the cake was the plethora of gluten free options. I'm celiac so this was just amazing to see and I will 100% be coming back because there are so many things on the menu I want to try!

they did not accommodate to my celiac and wheat allergy. every time i have come before they take ingredients from the back for me because i can’t have my food be contaminated. the guy said “there was nothing in the back”and that “since there is a rush he won’t do it”. it would have taken him 4. seconds extra to take it from the back like every other employee has done for me before so rude and did not consider allergies and for that 1/5.

Came in on a rainy Friday afternoon to try a few tacos. The table service was slow but the food came out quickly. We got the shrimp taco, chorizo, vegetable and birria. We really liked the Chorizo and Birria, and would pass on the other two. They were able to accommodate my gluten and dairy free allergies :)

This place is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G We were heading to another restaurant a few doors down, but it was closed, we walked in front of the Bonita, and we were completely drawn inside. Everything was perfect, I'm celiac, I they are super knowledgeable, aware and want for every customer to have the best experience. Oh, don't miss going through the mocktails menus, telling you, they don't miss a thing. The first time I went out of my comfort zone, and ordered something I've never tried before, that's how confident I was that this restaurant was perfect. Oh, btw, did the same second time around, and it was as good as the first time. If you are asking yourself if you should go, stop and go, you'll thank me late.

Staff are knowledgeable about celiac. Alex - my server was so thorough when going through the menu with me and so thoughtful to check in and make sure I was feel good when we were paying up and getting ready to leave. A++ service

I recently visited Sidedoor and had a fantastic experience. The atmosphere was great, with beautiful decor and lighting. The service was top-notch, with our server Steph being very friendly, personable, and accommodating to my allergies. She even went out of her way to get a gluten-free/dairy-free dessert from the eighteen kitchen! The food was absolutely delicious, with a great presentation and attention to detail. The fusion menu was very interesting and unique, and I loved every dish we ordered. The value was also fair and reasonable, especially considering the high quality of the food and service. I highly recommend Sidedoor for anyone looking for a great dining experience in the Byward Market. Thank you to the entire team for an amazing evening!

The service rep could tell it was my first time in one of these restaurants and took the time to explain the gluten free options for me. I appreciated the time they spent with me, as well as the delish tacos

I've been here several times and it's always been excellent. The food is very flavorful and the staff is very friendly. I didn't care for the watermelon drink, though. The portions look small but it's quite filling. Also, they're real corn tortillas so they're gluten free. I would recommend this place to everyone. There can be a bit of a wait to get your food, but they also offer up freshly made chips and homemade salsa which is yummy.

Favorites: vegetales al pastor (veggie) quesadilla, tortilla soup, potato and bean chipotle taco, and horchata to drink. Only a few tables, but a cute casual spot. Good portion sizes, goid vegetarian options, and most things are gluten free.

This place is SO good. They had items containing gluten marked on the menu. The waitress was super knowledgeable and knew exactly what celiac was/what was gluten free and safe for me to eat. I had the brisket (without crispy onions) and the pork taco.. both delicious! Great service & atmosphere. Chips are shared fryer with breaded items so I didn’t risk it. My friends really enjoyed their tacos too (fish and cauliflower). Will be back soon!

Great, hearty burritos full of flavor and juice. I only order takeout so I can't say much about the service or atmosphere but the food is excellent. I have not tried their other dishes but if I go based off of the burritos I am sure they are just as good. Check the app or online ordering for deals and promotions. They do offer gluten free wraps/tortillas.
