Be love is quite literally the best restaurant we've ever dined at. We've been several times now and have never been disappointed. The quality and portions are consistent, flavors are unbelievable. Everything is so fresh, you can really feel the love poured into every dish. A dream spot for anyone who is vegan and/or gluten free but ive also dined there with friends who are neither who have said it's the best food they've had. Keep doing what you're doing, its magic! ❤️🌷🙏

Thank you for making pizza that I can actually eat that tastes amazing. Finding a gluten-free/dairy-free pizza that doesn’t taste like chemicals and sadness is a true feat. ❤️

Tucked in on Wharf (with another spot on Yates), Dosa Paragon nails South Indian comfort food with crispy, perfectly fermented dosas, tangy coconut and tomato chutneys, and hearty sambhar . The signature dishes—like the Butter Chicken Masala Dosa and Mysore Masala Dosa—burst with authentic, bold flavours you won’t easily find elsewhere on Vancouver Island . Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options make it inclusive and appealing to many dietary preferences. Many guests rave about crisp dosas and excellent chutneys: “Bomb.com for dosa lovers!” . One Redditor even called it “the only proper South Indian restaurant on the island” , and another praised the Butter Chicken Dosa as “fantastic!” . Service and atmosphere can vary—some mention occasional slowdowns at peak times or small portion sizes for chutney —but most reviews highlight friendly staff and a cozy setup. Highlights • Exceptional, large, crispy dosas with vibrant fillings • Delicious chutneys & hearty sambar • Inclusive menu: vegan/gluten‑free friendly • Filter coffee and mango lassi round out the meal nicely Tips • Go during off-peak hours to avoid waits • Parking can be tricky near Yates—Wharf location offers easier access Bottom line: Authentic South Indian cuisine with bold flavours, a welcoming vibe, and a menu that satisfies vegans and gluten‑free diners alike. A must-visit for dosa lovers in Victoria!

While it was great they had gluten free waffle options, you only get 1 Belgium waffle and if you’re hungry, it won’t be enough. An order of thick cut bacon on the side helped fill the void. Oat milk for our coffees was nice, and the coffee cup sizes are kind of small given the $5 charge. Overall, it was decent - it was a breakfast start to a busy morning - but we’d likely go elsewhere for more value and larger portions.

My wife ordered gluten free, she was served gluten. She is a celiac. Unacceptable. No apology from the server or manager. The item was also left on the bill. I honestly can’t believe this is how this restaurant operates.

I explicitly asked for gluten free noodles due to an allergy, the cashier misunderstood and made gluten noodles. Spoke to owner and they weren’t willing to remake or refund :(

We needed gluten free and we were very happy to know that they have a dedicated gluten free menu and they use a dedicated gluten free fryer for their food. It can be really hard to find a lot of places like this, but this is by far my favourite place to eat in Victoria! I really want to thank everyone there who made it very easy to find safe food for us.

The food tastes good. It's a little expensive for a walk up counter when you add on any protein or avocado. Most of the additions were gluten free, which is why we chose this place. They had fun beverage options. It's accessible, but a tight squeeze inside when it's full in rush hours

My bestie and I dined at Varsha for the first time on Saturday. From the moment we walked through the door, I knew it would be a great experience. First of all, the seating is amazing. From someone who struggles with comfort in restaurants, I could see that every seat looked comfortable and the layout was excellent. The person who greeted, seated and served us was lovely, she was so friendly and helpful and ensured our experience was a wonderful one! We share Chicken Pakoras and Palak Paneer...both were divine! We found the menu options to be excellent for my gluten free needs due to a wheat allergy. And the prices are fantastic! I definitely look forward to returning more frequently! **I've just read through some of the negative reviews and I'm actually shocked. Our service was amazing, fast and friendly. The food was fantastic. And I see someone complaining that their butter chicken poutine came on a bed of fries....ummm what did you think you were ordering?! Anyway, I kind of think some of the negative reviews are bogus, but I guess everyone has different experiences. I have quite high standards/expectations, and they were met fully!

As a celiac, this place was easy to share plates (something we don't often get to do with our friends and family). Loved all the GF options on the menu and the variety. Food was so delicious.
