Best gluten product i ever had . Extremely nice lady at the store offered a few products as a gift of purchase since I mentioned I just got out of an ab surgery and are very limited to choice of food in recoverstage (no gluten , egg and dairy) . In love with the cream puff and lemon walfer. The muffin took me by surprise after the first bite from the oven. Never had to go for McDonald breakfast sandwich ever , perfect replacement. Gluten free life is pleasant with all the kinnikinnick product

From ottawa to edmonton this is the best gluten-free treats I have had the pleasure to sample. As someone that became celiac at 47 the baked items are legit and so are the staff.

Cassie Curry Adams

Staff is very friendly and helpful. Everything I have tried has been delicious! My favorites have been the feta and spinach flat bread and mini donuts. Great spot for Celiacs to eat without worry!

Serena Goutbeck

Went to celebrate our mom’s legacy at her favourite restaurant! Ordered dinner for 6 plus 2 more ppl and added 2 dishes. Gluten free for a few of us! Fresh, hot, delivered to the large round table with smiles! Our famous hostess came and sang a “b day” song with us ! Owner gentleman took our pic outside! Wonderful green tea and wine selection…see them next year! Came from Okotoks to have dinner in Edmonton!

Incredible gluten free (and often vegan) breads and sweets. The sourdough bread was incredible toasted with peanut butter. The tigernut cookie was a crunchy treat. And the chocolate raspberry Sammie was incredible. We came back a second time in our trip for bread to take to Jasper. So grateful to have found Food in the Nud!

Joelle

Yum! The double cheeseburger & fries were delicious. I got the gluten-free bun, which was soft and fluffy 😇 I am highly sensitive to gluten cross contamination and get sick from the smallest exposure. I was fine, felt great after with no symptoms. The young person who took my order was kind and knew exactly what to say to ease my nerves around potential cross contamination. If you need a big and filling burger that is grilled to perfection, then make this place your next stop xo

Beautiful souls who care for us celiacs even through last minute deliveries, For whomever was on staff tonight, I hope both sides of all your pillows are cold tonight <3

All the arepas can be made gluten free. A bit too greasy but tasty and good quick service.

Lydia Van Thiel

Gluten free crepe. ! Delicious.

Donna Jenson

Against All Grain Benny was by far the best eggs benedict I’ve ever had. Got the spicy hollandaise and it was just the right mild spice. The Brussel sprouts were sweet, carmelized and pure perfection. Vegan and gluten free which was perfect. I will be back to try other vegan GF items.

They are not careful when it comes to correctly labeling and preparing for dietary needs. I have Celiacs Disease and due to them giving me a regular bagel with the written label of a "gluten free" I'm now experiencing agonizing symptoms. Luckily I won't die, but if you have any allergies DO NOT GO TO THIS REMEDY. Could you imagine if it was a nut allergy?! Do better.

Susan Haddock

Today was my first experience at PF Changs and it did not disappoint! They had a great selection of Gluten Free options, I was served a complimentary soup to enjoy and both the manger and me server were very nice. Will be back!

Megan Sale

The service was great and the food was amazing! I ordered dinner for my sister, who has a gluten allergy, and I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of gluten free options! All of the food and drinks we got were amazing and definitely the best Vietnamese/thai I’ve had in a while. I would definitely recommend the vermicelli and iced coffee!

Sarah LeClair

Cannot thank Angela and the team at Banh Mi Day enough for taking on my massive catering order for my office this week. Not only was the communication incredible (including suggestions on how many platters/types of platters to order), but when the food arrived day of, it was so carefully packages and labelled to make setting it out for staff that much easier. It was a first ordering banh mi to the office and it was an absolutely hit - especially with my gluten free and halal staff. Will definitely be ordering for catering in the future, as well as continuing to stop by for a banh mi and Vietnamese iced coffee on my own time.

Always delicious and fresh, fast service. A true gem . (Last months visit) Today's visit. After waiting a month to return here with my family, I am very let down . I need to amend my review from 5 stars to 2 to reflect on today's visit. I had an awful experience by Greg, the owners son. We were treated poorly and without respect at all. How embarrassing to be argued with in front of the entire café. After explaining to him about the foods quality and taste, I was treated as though I was not being truthful. I asked for a 1/2 gluten-free turkey sandwich with everything but tomatoes and lettus and a cup of soup. The food was brought out it was a whole sandwich. I mentioned that i only ordered 1/2 and then was told after it came out that "they don't do 1/2 sandwiches for gluten-free bread," and there were no sprouts. (Instead of letting me know when I ordered) I took one bite and couldn't even eat it as it was dry and the turkey meat was a large amount of dark, bruised meat and a tiny bit of white where it wouldnt even stay on the bread, in comparison to my last visit where it was the best sandwich I ever had, I was very disappointed and let down today. Also, for being charged $32 for a breakfast for my mom and sister it was cold and over priced for 3 eggs and 8 pieces of meat, cold potatoes and dry toast. Also, none of the kitchen staff were wearing hair nets or gloves, and I witnessed one cook wipe his nose with his finger and then on his apron. 🤢 The other 2 staff members we encountered were kind and polite. I am absolutely sad to be treated with such rudeness after I've been visiting this café for years off and on and being a paid, returning customer. I am still in shock as to how Greg treated me today, so upset and left hungry.

The coffee is good, service is great, and the pastries are good. However, gluten-free items are not on the top of the pastry cabinet, where they should be, to be properly labelled. There needs to be more strict standards for where they keep these items, especially for celiacs. Otherwise, don't bother calling it gluten-free.

Nina Karpoff

Worth the wait. They always have great flavours and gluten free waffle cones. What a fun afternoon, even when it's cold.

Makayla

Amazing food and wonderful welcoming service! Everyone at my table was raving about how delicious their plates were. Fresh seasonal fruit is common in the dishes and it was lovely. Marching was our server and you can tell he is very passionate about his job here. Friendly and attentive. If anyone in your party is gluten sensitive they have a delicious gluten free crepe with fresh fruit. I ordered a traditional breakfast with a side of avocado. Everyone loved their lattes as well.

Elizabeth H

We really enjoyed our meal here from the food to the atmosphere to the service. At first, we were disappointed with the menu since they have limited gluten-free options. It would be so easy for them to get a good quality vegan/gluten-free bread – – perhaps from”Food in the Nud” nearby — and be able to offer a gluten-free option for the sandwich and tomato soup combo and the veggie burger combo, both items that we hoped to try. We ended up very happy with our selection, however, and shared the gluten-free pancakes, which were Matcha/lemon/blueberry and the vegan omelette. Both had incredible flavor profiles, were cooked to perfection, and you could tell they were made with quality ingredients. We are so grateful to have found this restaurant during our visit to Edmonton.

Kelli LeBlanc

Kennedy was an amazing waitress and it was an amazing experience and atmosphere. The food was amazing. I especially like it here because they have many gluten free options including gluten free buns and a separate gluten free fryer.

Andrew Scarfe

Taylor and the rest of the wait-staff were efficient, prompt, and delightful. Taylor was easily able to guide us through the menu to ensure that the one (of six) guests was not excluded because of her gluten sensitivity. The meal was beautifully presented, clearly very fresh, and delicious. Thanks for making it such a lovely evening for us!

Kelsey Lummer

I am so glad Campio has landed in Ritchie! The atmosphere and plethora of beverage offerings are awesome. The only thing I would give as feedback is that it is extremely hard as an individual with celiac to eat here. Their menu is rife with GF and GF+ items, which excited me at first, however, there is an absolute risk of cross-contamination due to the lack of separate fryers or prep space. I appreciated the staff's confirmation of this, but it makes it really hard to go here now. Liquid diet it is!

Clinton Carew

I really enjoyed it here. Delicious gluten free pita and hummus. Yum. Staff was friendly and the vibe is relaxed. (Maybe slightly too relaxed?) Anyhow great place for a gf lunch

Definitely need improvement on handling allergies. Was served flour tortillas despite informing my server of a gluten allergy and requesting to be swapped to corn tortillas. When I informed my server of the mistake she said they were corn, I asked her to double check and sure enough they were not corn. As a server you should be able to spot the difference and do a double check before the food comes to the table.

Visiting Edmonton from California, we weren’t sure what to expect in terms of vegan food. This restaurant blew us away. The flavors were delicious and creative, the best vegan Asian food I’ve had tied with a small restaurant in Santa Monica, California. We loved all three dishes we tried, and will be heading back for brunch on our way out of town. Their staff was well informed and helpful, there is a separate gluten-free menu, and the atmosphere is very pleasant. This is a must try!

Ordered delivery so can’t speak to the experience when dining in, but this place has the best variety of dishes I’ve seen almost anywhere. We were able to try some things that we’ve never even heard of before and it was all AMAZING. Especially recommend the mango butter chicken and gluten free naan! I do want to say how much I appreciated that, at least online, you’re able to choose your spice level and the dish descriptions are so clear about what’s in things. As a picky eater who can’t handle spice, this was a godsend and made for a great ordering experience. We’ll definitely be ordering again and maybe will even pop in to experience the buffet sometime. Yes, the food is a little pricier than other places, but you’re paying for quality and the clear expertise of the chefs. Definitely worth it if you’re looking for a step above the usual Indian fare. In response to many of these other reviews - an added gratuity for parties of 8 or more is indeed extremely standard practice and should not be a surprise if you’ve ever eaten out as a group. It really is on the diner to ensure they’re aware of the restaurant’s gratuity policy before dining, and to make sure they are prepared to compensate their waitstaff fairly. Just my 2 cents.

Natalie W.

Very Gluten free friendly. Incredible food, interactive experience and attentive staff. So happy we stumbled upon this place

Nancy Burton

Went out with a group of friends and had a ball. The food was fantastic and the server was top notch. So delighted my gluten free friend could have a proper meal with dessert

Greg B

Excellent burger and great gluten free bun. Dedicated fryer for gluten free fries. Staff were knowledgeable and offered recommendations.

Jessica Arnold

This is one of the best Vietnamese restaurants out there. Such a great vegan menu and everything is labeled vegan/gluten—free to help diners quickly decide what to order. The food is so fresh and flavourful! And the owners are absolutely delightful. My husband left his gloves and 6months later when we went to eat, the owner remembered us and brought out the gloves to return to my husband! Unreal service. Highly recommend their Pho. Vegan “beef” sate, coconut seafood soup, etc. So good. It is a large enough establishment that you can eat with a larger party and they can fit you in (it is our go-to for multiple families to join together for birthdays, etc).

Several Gluten free options clearly outlined in menu (look for the green G💚) and most of their stuff is MSG free which is a huge bonus for brain health and a testament to truly good flavor in their food (more on MSG below). I had the gluten free vermicelli, gluten free spring rolls and they modified the salad rolls to be gluten free. Very tasty 😋. Dipping sauce was great. Second time around I tried the gluten free shrimp curry noodle soup and it was delicious albeit a bit spicy 🔥. 🅿️🚗 Plenty of parking all around the building. 👩‍🦽♿ Wheel chair accessible door. 🪑 Comfortable seating, warm temperature. Clean. Very pleasant. 🥤The waiter was friendly and service was 4/5 only because she took a bit to pick up the dishes and I had to go to the counter to ask for the bill 🧾. But she was on her own and it got busy...she could have used some help. MSG is an excitotoxin for the brain. MSG makes food taste more flavorful and addicting which is why most pho, Chinese, Vietnamese places use it - it's a cheap way for restaurants to hack your taste buds on low quality food, rather than spicing it correctly. PhoEver said they don't use MSG, and my family member is sensitive to it. If they had lied, we would have known. So they are honest and make truly good food.

Assmaa EL OUARIACHI

Wow! Great restaurant. The food was delicious and tastes heavily. I really enjoyed the galaxy burger with sweet potatoes cubes on the side. I think Copper Branch will be my favorite place from now on. I am definitely going back again and again to try their other options. Copper Branch has an excellent customer service. The staff was professional, friendly, and very welcoming. The place is spotless and very organized. I loved every single detail about it. I highly recommend Copper Branch for anyone who wishes to have healthy satisfying flavorful food and drinks, or gluten free. It is the best place where all choices are served.

Tara Short

Fantastic experience! I've seen photos online about this place and it's exactly how it looks! A wide array of toys for all ages, stages, and abilities. Staff was beyond helpful and kind. It's a little bit cozy when you have different age groups in the same play time, more due to size and ability differences but that's to be expected when we're talking children; It's just something to be aware of. For example, older kids running through while younger ones may be less steady or on the floor. Again, to be expected with the range of children - just awareness. The food was good, too! Great variety offered and as a person with a lot of food issues, they were excellent at making me feel comfortable in being safe there. They offer a lot of dairy free and gluten free options and I think some vegan as well! Huge coffe/bevvie menu with quick and efficient service. Price matches the amount of food provided. Overall, Sweet Pea Cafe is excellent all around - Concept/execution, staff friendliness, food/drink, and the most amazing part: CLEAN!!! Thank you for a great morning.

Karen Barkman

Today I had lunch with 4 of my friends. My lunch was lousy. I had the vegan mossaka and it was swimming in oil. My stomach hasn't felt right all afternoon. I'm gluten free and a small dish of gluten free crackers was $ 1.99 extra. Really? The brewed ☕️ which isn't even on the menu was like drinking dish water. The waitress was friendly but we had to ask her to take the dishes away. We were the only ones in the restaurant too. Let's just say that I 'll never go back. I'll walk with my wallet.

Laura May May

Really great service, our waitress Mani was fantastic. Was really happy that gluten free options for crepe, pancakes and French toast were available!

Dolly Bhatt

Highly recommend this place for vegetarian,vegan and gluten-free options.

Nope Nah

Amazing especially for a food court experience. I would give it 5 stars, but it says gluten friendly and I had a reaction to it immediately. I have a severe sensitivity though. It tastes great and the staff are very helpful otherwise. It would be great if the Thai iced tea could be made with vegan milk instead of cream as I also have a dairy allergy. I still recommend it for folks who don't have dietary restrictions!

Alex Barrow

Love the food here! I believe the whole menu is vegan. Many gluten free options, and staff are very helpful with making sure dietary restrictions are respected. Delicious smoothies and entrees. I highly recommend the dendeng!

Such a lovely place with a lovely atmosphere and the owner is an absolute delight! So grateful to have a nearby shop that caters to dietary restrictions- being gluten, dairy and refined sugar free can sometimes be tricky but this place always has so much to choose from. I really appreciate that all their ingredients are printed on their packaging and that they use whole foods and pure ingredients. Everything is organized to perfection, it's really easy and not too overwhelming at all to shop here. Even their website is awesome and simple to use. Not to mention they offer delivery for a very reasonable price, and even free if you spend a certain amount. I am obsessed with the mushroom gravy, vegan maple glazed meatballs and garlic mashed potatoes and am always excited to try something new each time I go. I also love that they have items from other vendors, like so many goodies from Food In the Nud, vegan cheesecake from The Raw Chef (it'll change your life) and the to die for "Hear me Raw" peanut butter cups. Absolutely recommend Good Stock! Truly a gem.

Chantelle Stacey

They have really great vegan food, and plenty of gluten-free options!

I loved their vegan butter chicken and vegan quesadilla. I couldnt believe it was made without dairy (all their food is vegan) as it tasted like the real thing. They also mark their menu for items that are gluten free and peanut free and can also further alter the ingredients for you (they made me a gluten free version). The portions are large and the staff is lovely. All meals come with a large very tasty salad or fries.

Annalise Charl

The food here is absolutely fantastic with your choice of spice options available, so even my friend enjoyed the milder spice. The staff here let me know they had a separate menu for gluten free options to make sure the kitchen knew to make it gluten free, which was fantastic! The staff are super friendly and checked in on us to see how everything was tasting. I will definitely be coming back here as a regular:)

Seasons

Very calm place, it is full vegetarian with many Jain, Swaminarayan, Vegan, and gluten free options. Many of these options are authentic, original recipes. I had the Phav Bhaji cheese dosa which was huge! And Aloo Tikki Chaat! It was delicious and such a satisfying combination of flavors!

Darren O

Deep fried pickles were amazing, most places end up making a soggy mess, these ones were crisp and great tasting along with the house made sauce. Ordered the "chickn" basket, taste wise amazing, however it had a slightly spongy texture owing to the fact it was a wheat gluten based food but still very good. Corn dog was almost an exact replica of a pogo but better tasting. Garlic fries were also good. Nice service as well. Would recommend.

Demian P

I love going to this Freshii location. Service is top notch. Mary knows my favourite order and I love the Oaxaca bowl. Healthy food and gluten free / vegan options!

Recently had catering from El Mero Mero and it was a pleasant experience. Kate was prompt in her responses and had made the process very easy. Arturo was friendly and quick with setting up. I contacted them around the holidays so I wasn’t optimistic about getting catering last minute for a Christmas party, but they made it work! Thank you to the entire team. Our staff loved the tacos. I especially appreciate that the tacos are halal and gluten free. They were fresh and delicious. Will certainly be recommending them to other businesses/individuals.
