My favourite cupcake place! Never had such a good cookie other than the marble one.

Everything!

The staff are super friendly and the food is delicious! I went with a group to carry things back for the family, and I'm convinced the only thing we didn't take was the bakery with us :) Things we got: date, key lime & strawberry squares, cinnamon buns, lemon blueberry danishes, chubby bunnies, bourbon tarts, a chicken pot pie, and a cherry pie. For a family that has egg allergies, gluten & dairy intolerance, everyone enjoyed the food. The only constructive criticism I'd give is maybe that the sucrose could be a bit less? However, overall, we enjoyed ghe food and will absolutely be back :)

Extremely disappointed in our experience today. The display case was bare, yet the macarons and tiger cake we purchased were all rock hard and very stale. When you’re paying such a premium for a gluten free item, the bare minimum is the product isn’t stale. Every item we bought smelled of refrigerator and not of anything remotely like the product it was advertised as. Whisked is monopolizing on the very small gluten free market and selling people stale items at an unfair markup considering the poor quality.

I am celiacs with a tapioca allergy they were very accommodating and the food was excellent. Beware the dark staircase to the bathroom! We sat outside, it was very nice.

I ate at this restaurant when it was called Riz, and i just went under their new name. The menu is expanded and is all gluten free. It is a treat to be able to order anything and not have to ask about ingredients. As a huge bonus, they had a dessert pastry selection of items I’ve never seen available in gluten free versions. I had a chocolate eclair which was amazing.

Brianna Wilson

I absolutely LOVE this bakery! Truly a celiac heaven - I've been back twice since going with my partner because I was so happy with the experience. I recommend the beef patties, anything by Riz, eclairs, crullers, and my friend loved the samosa (he's not even GF)! Absolutely worth a long browse through their market, freezers and fresh bakes.

Lori Palmer

This place was incredible!!! We looked for a safe gf place for our celiac daughter, and this one was such a treat in that it is all gf. But even more amazing was the healthy, plentiful and incredibly tasty meals we had. We left fully satisfied and it kept us going for a very long time. Amazing service as well. Would highly recommend! Thank you for giving us an amazing meal. We hope for Impact restaurants to come to Vancouver, our home.

Andie Brown

This is truly such a great little place to grab a bite! Service was quick and efficient. They offer gluten free options for their main dishes as well as desserts and everything I had was DELICIOUS. I highly recommend checking out Off The Hook.

Sarah Freia

It's wonderful to have access to a safe and delicious gluten free fish & chips in the city. Anglr offers beautifully deep-fried flourless goodness, with multiple side offerings to keep you coming back. I was really impressed with the onion rings and yam fries, and would definitely order them again. The service was very friendly, and I'm looking forward to stopping by again!

Mariana Santos

Very nice vegan and gluten free mushroom pasta! Ana was very nice

Hafsa

Nice atmosphere and service, but inedible gluten free pastries. As someone who has tried the majority of gluten free bakeries in Toronto and countless storebought goods, it’s ludicrous that this bakery is charging $5.93 for a single black forest cupcake. The cupcake had a weird texture, it was like munching on uncooked quinoa in between cake crumb. The frosting was overwhelmingly sweet and not creamy at all. I’ve had plenty of good vegan frosting at other bakeries—this was not it. There was very little cherry filling and it should have been a jam-like consistency, instead I think they just soaked dried cherries in sugar syrup. Not to mention the black forest cupcake is a “seasonal” flavor which is how the bakery justifies an extra $0.75 surcharge. Last I checked, dried cherries are available year-round so I’m confused and you should be too.

Christina Stair

Fantastic service, they were so kind and happy to help us when we visited. Food was amazing, and everything can be prepared gluten free in dedicated appliances so there is no crosscontamination. Would definitely come back if we are in town!

Carolyn Nichol

So impressed to find a place that cares about the ingredients they use for the health and well being of their clients. LOVE that they are gluten free and have vegan options. Take out, or sit down that doesn't set your health back is what Toronto needs more of, and this company has it!

Ashlee L

Very accommodating for celiac

Krystle Manintveld

Food is decent. It's great that they have a gluten free eggs benny. Potatoes were definitely undercooked. It is always busy and a zoo to get in - not necessarily worth the wait to get in.

Bia Revez

Well prepared and tasty food, very friendly and helpful staff. Has a gluten-free menu. I recommend it.

Taylor Luftig

I was just diagnosed with Celiac and looking for a place in Toronto that takes celiac seriously and doesn’t cross contaminate. Normally it’s hard to find places that taste good and do this, but I was so happy to find this spot! The food was unreal and Sandra explained the menu and was such a great server. Highly recommend!

Cristiano Therrien

Tasty gluten-free food, thank you!

Lindsay Kromm

Wanted to leave a review specifically for celiacs: Planta Queen has the best celiac-friendly accommodations I've experienced anywhere in Toronto. Our hostess confirmed upon check-in that someone in the party had celiac disease. Our server confirmed it when introducing herself to the table. The manager came by to inform me everything would be prepared in a separate area, with gloves being changed before making our dishes. And every time a dish was dropped off, they confirmed it to be celiac-safe. I felt so incredibly secure that a dish didn't inadvertently get "missed" by the kitchen, and that there wouldn't be any cross-contamination. Bonus: they have a separate fryer so celiacs can even eat the fried items, AND they were able to modify dishes that weren't marked gluten-free to be gluten free for me. Everything was delicious. Definitely, definitely worth a visit!

Matteo

One of the best restaurants I have ever been too. The service is amazing, they are very kind, and also has many gluten free options. If you are looking for a good Italian place to go to this should be on your list.

Heidi Tanninen

First time here! What an awesome surprise to find this restaurant while we were out and about shopping! So pleasant to walk in and be greeted with friendly and happy staff! Then, to find out that there was an abundance of tasty gluten free options!!! It could be that their whole menu is gluten free, but I’m not 100%. We had a jerk chicken wrap, sipping broth, hot chocolate, and a cookie. These gluten free choices , as I said earlier are done well and so tasty - great ingredients too! Our server, Venkat, brought our experience up to another level! We will be back to this area just to eat here. Oh ya, we enjoyed the vibe in at Impact. Clean, and pleasant

4.5. Terroni is consistently a reliable and delicious Italian meal. This location has an amazing patio that stays open for as long as possible. We went on a very busy Saturday night and it was good but everything took a long time and the servers were overwhelmed. They’re great at accommodating allergies (they have a seperate menu for dairy and gluten free items) however, they don’t like making amendments to the dishes(nothing new, old Terroni rule). I always LOVE the funghi salad and the pastas (with dairy and no amendments) are great.

Absolutely love eating here, the vibe is amazing and the staff are top tier! The food and atmosphere are so unique and as a Gluten Free Vegan who doesn't drink, trust me when I say this is a haven. I have been a few times so I have tried most of the food. Alot of the menu is already edible for me as is, but the majority of the menu can be accommodated to a vegan and/or gluten free diet which is amazing. The mocktails are equally fantastic. Watching the chefs at work in the open kitchen is the best, and the Management team and Madison in Events are always the most generous and accommodating. If you are so lucky to have service from Joseph, you will leave a very happy and full man! Can't wait to be back in the summer for Jungle Brunch!

Ebony Jones

Great atmosphere and food! Lots of gluten free options available and staff were very accomodating. We had the yellow curry with chicken and the ginger stir fry with beef and extra vegetables - great flavours

Michael Rowsell

A great place to go if you and your friends enjoy sci-fi/fantasy/horror themes. A lot of care and effort has gone into making it a fun place to have drinks and food. The staff and service have always been friendly and accommodating. One of our group is celiac and one is vegan and we have never had an issue.

Alice Leung

Tabule has always been my favourite restaurant, my top choice for lunch in the neighborhood. The menu offers a variety of healthy options including gluten free items. The staff here are all pleasant and helpful especially Mina. I look forward to see her there every time.

Michaela Storoschuk

Had a work night dinner with some out of country guests and oh my goodness did this restaurant went above and beyond. Attentive service, fully could accommodate the menu for each dietary allergy (dairy and gluten), and had an amazing variety of options from land sea and farm. A bit of a spend but it was worth it for a lovely night out, and the ambiance was divine.

Jacqueline Mackay

The perfect spot for a unique and truly joyful treat! Our server Mike was super helpful, and the gelato/wine flight was an absolute delight! The gelato was all gluten and dairy free and the wine pairings were scrumptious! I highly recommend :)

Vlad Nabok

Great coffee ☕️ shop in the Beaches area. Lots of gluten-free and low carbon snacks. Really enjoyed their espresso. The location is great too. Nice outside bench for people watching in the Beach. Highly recommend and would definitely comeback when I am in the area.

4.5. Great classic spot, been around forever. Amazing rooftop patio and classic Italian fare- always specials too. Atmosphere is lovely and service is attentive. Servers are knowledgeable and have typically been there a while. Like a many Toronto spots- more attention if you’re ordering drinks, less attention if you’re not. The busser’s are good about refilling the water and they always leave a bottle on the table. Atmosphere is bustling throughout the restaraunt, the patio is also beautiful and a fun vibe. Great for people of all-ages (a little quieter outside which is nice). Food is great and they also have an allergen menu which indicates dairy free, gluten free, and vegan options- so accommodating and helpful. Aside from this they don’t really ever make accommodations to the food. They’re good about allergies - specifically helpful with a soy allergy. The bread is made in house and is delicious- ingredients listed on side of the basket. The food is consistent - some dishes really shine. Don’t sleep on the funghi salad starter, the grilled calamari starter, the spaghetti a limone, or the bolognese. Cocktails are GREAT, albeit a little on the pricier side. A classic Toronto spot that always comes through.

This was, without a doubt, both the best meal I've had out and the best service I've had since discovering I have a gluten allergy. Our waitress Kate was fantastic, checking in with the kitchen regarding alternatives and substitutions to accomodate me so I could enjoy the items I wanted without worrying about getting sick. Kate herself and several other employees stopped by our table to assure me that they'd taken every step to guarantee no gluten would touch my food, and took the time to ensure myself and the rest of my family didn't have any other allergies they should be aware of. It was the best prime rib I've had! The meat was incredibly tender and perfectly seasoned, letting the beef shine through. Literally have been craving this dish for years but I tend to avoid eating out because of how difficult It can be to find safe food. Everyone I was with enjoyed their meal immensely and hours later, all we can talk about is how fantastic everything was from the moment we walked in to the moment we left. Kate was even kind enough to tell me to never apologize for having an allergy. It's the first time I've ever felt comfortable at a restaurant even asking to be accommodated - and I will say my family did speak up on my behalf at first, as I usually just avoid asking entirely. Overall it was a lovely experience and I would love to go back to this specific location solely for the staff even though it's one of the ones further away from me.

Delicious food... great service and even understood my celiac dietary needs.

so grateful to find an actual gluten free and sugar free restaurant 😍 this was needed in Toronto

Erica

It is THE place to go for Thai. Handsdown best Thai in the city. Best service, best food. Great place for gluten free options. Cannot wait to go again.

Whitney Bruno (Prose)

Able to handle special requests, have gluten free options, good food, not too noisy, and fast staff.

Morgen Fulton

Rav was excellent and very equipped to accommodate my gluten allergy!

Cassandra Velasquez

Needed a sugar free dessert for my boyfriend’s diabetic mother and decided to order from here! Cupcakes were delivered in wonderful packaging and were surprisingly tasty for no sugar and are also keto! Highly recommend this place for those who can’t have sugar and can only consume anything gluten free :)!

Allegra Nardulli

This Mexican breakfast spot is so delicious and quaint. Their menu is loaded with so many gluten and dairy free options and the service is amazing. They are knowledgeable of gluten and dairy allergies and do whatever they can to accommodate you. All the staff is so friendly as well! I will definitely be back!

Krystle Manintveld

Great for gluten free eaters.

Ashley Capern

This was the first time in a long time I could order almost anything on the menu and it could be made gluten free. They have a dedicated fryer and a gluten free desert! Staff were all very knowledgeable I’ve been multiple times now.
