Top 50 Gluten-Free Asian Culinary Havens Across Australia

Emily Ainley

The environment is a bit dated and unwelcoming, but the food and services makes up for it. We have eaten here a few times now.

Amy McDonald

Incredible performance across the board. Spice was very nice. My gluten intolerant companion left the venue with his dignity still in tact. Coming back!

Jess Crimston

So good! Completely gluten free menu.

Daisy-May Creighton

Delicious food with an extensive GF menu! Great prices, very careful with allergen consideration and overall a great place for a bite to eat pre-theatre or just for a nice meal at a casual dine in establishment!

Bella Wu

Dr. Emma L. Baird

Actually had the food from here as a takeaway, so unable to comment on the atmosphere and service of the restaurant. I can say it was a pleasure being able to order a takeaway freely without having to check if it’s coeliac safe. Entirely gluten free and excellent quality food! The sushi was phenomenal and some of the best I’ve ever had! The sushi bowl was also very flavoursome and fresh. Sadly I was a bit disappointed with the soba and felt it wasn’t as flavoursome - that being said I still enjoyed it. I’d definitely recommend and would love to go to sit down in their restaurant to try more!

Amazing GF meals with excellent service!

Alicia McCoy

As always, amazing food and great service!! Excellent vegetarian and GF options as well great care taken to cater for my family member with coeliac disease.

J Shepley

Absolutely fantastic food! Came into the restaurant and it was basically full, so knew it was good. People even started lining up at the front door! Was told by the waiter that the entire menu was gluten free/GF and is even endorsed by the coeliac/celiac association of Australia! Had the Nasi Goreng with lemongrass chicken (not often something I can get very often) and it was amazing. Serving size was super generous but not too much. Table had all sorts of extra condiments (all GF), the chilli crisp oil was great. Will definitely be back to try the pho, bao buns, and much more!

Anthony Greco

Amazing experience. Waitress was fantastic with personalised service. Gluten free menu was extensive and delicious. I would go back and recommend to anyone.

Tiffany Woods

TLDR: amazing service, quality food with good portions, well trained staff, able to accommodate many dietary requirements and accommodate different budgets. - - - - My most recent visit was my fourth time dining at Chin Chin, this time it was with work colleagues for a Christmas lunch. The food was delicious as per usual, and it is worth noting that despite the fact that the restaurant was absolutely packed and insanely busy, all of our dietary requirements were met without fail (lactose intolerance, gluten intolerance). In terms of cuisine you wont find anything “traditional” at Chin Chin, it is Asian fusion at its finest, but everything is well thought out, well balanced and also fun. The service was excellent with the staff explaining each dish, making sure our drinks were topped up, checking in with us in between courses and even taking the time to have a quick chat with our table. Additionally when I passed by the kitchen it was very clear that they had their communication locked down. Always a pleasure to dine here.

I think my partner and I had an incredible time here. As a coeliac person I have not had the chance to eat gluten-free dumplings for years now, so it felt so amazing for me that I found this amazing restaurant that has such delicious gluten-free dumplings. My partner and I found the food delicious, friendly service, incredible views and the weather at the time was absolutely stunning. I feel that I loved it and I would undeniably recommend.

Elli Van Blommestein

Mother’s Day Lunch was great, thanks to Heidi for a great experience. Excellent allergy accommodation with the coeliac Feed Me option!

Vanessa F

100% gluten free

Lauren Clark

Was really amazing being able to go the a restaurant that the menu was 100% gluten free. All the food was amazing and was hard to choose what to eat. We had the honey chicken (my fav), lemon chicken, the different boa buns, calamari, tempura veg? Magnolia beef, spring rolls. Lychee drink cider/wine was nice too as the cocktails weren’t available when we were there. Wish we were able to come again but just on holiday here in Melbourne. Forgot to take photos the food was hot and fresh coming out of the kitchen. It looks 80’s deco but the staff super friendly

Nick Dring

This place is fabulous for those looking for gluten free goods, the options are endless and delicious! The sweet and sour pork was absolutely outstanding and the vermeceli noodles were to die for. I would 100% recommend checking it out as a dinner spot/date spot! A nice and relaxing restaurant that l will definitely be returning to in the future :)

Tracy McGahan

Celebrating an Anniversary, we enjoyed a complimentary glass of sparkling on arrival. We selected a banquet and the staff were wonderful and very accommodating with our gluten/dairy free daughter. Our server was Emily and she was exceptional 👏. Thank you for a wonderful night.

This is not the first time we’ve been here - our previous visit for a birthday celebration was amazing and we were very keen to return. This time was to celebrate our wedding anniversary - booking online we asked to be seated in the balcony if available. This was ignored, even though there were plenty of free tables on the balcony and being a Monday night it wasn’t particularly busy. When we asked about it afterwards, we were dismissed with “it was wet today” even though there are blinds protecting the area and the rain had cleared by lunchtime, plus other people were sitting out there. The food was as delicious as we remembered, and their ability to cater for gluten free outstanding. The lady who served us was lovely…when she was waiting on us. However the general service was appalling this time around. We waited close to 15 minutes before we were even given a menu. Throughout the evening we witnessed other tables being looked after very well, being served before us, finished their meal before us even though they came in much later than our booking. Our waitress was topping up other tables’ water then not even checking our glasses. Our meals sat on the middle serving table waiting to be dished up for long enough for them to be lukewarm, and our dessert ice cream melting. At the end of our meal we didn’t get any hot towels (every other table we watched did). Overall we felt very invisible and ignored. The table behind us had 4 businessmen who had had far too much to drink, being very loud with extremely inappropriate language - swearing their heads off. Saying quite inappropriate derogatory comments. At the end of our meal (that took 2 hours and 40 minutes to get through because of the lack of service), Simon (we assume the manager) brought over the eftpos machine and almost insisted we give a tip (in Australia a tip is not customary). When we said not today, he appeared annoyed and when we mentioned the behaviour of the table behind us, he was very dismissive and didn’t seem to care. Overall, not a great experience this time and disappointing given our previous experience.

Our group of 12 had a lovely experience at Dee Den. The food was delicious and the service excellent. The staff were very kind and accommodating in helping us celebrate our daughter’s 21st Birthday. Our group also had 2 coeliacs and a vegetarian and they were very well catered for.

Sienna Oscuro

The only Chinese restaurant that is gluten free near me and it is so yummy

Gen Stewart

Gluten Free food isn't Gluten Free. Great food but the menu is incorrectly labelled. Most of the dishes labelled Gluten Free contain traces of Gluten and are not prepared separately. Either label them Low Gluten for Gluten intolerant customers or get a small separate frier. Someone could end up very sick.

Sam L

Food and staff are amazing. We did the feed me menu and every dish was delicious. The firecracker cauliflower and massaman curry were stand outs. Staff were super friendly and accommodating (we didn't book). They seem to have a great understanding of coeliac disease and made sure all meals were GF. They even put a little candle in our dessert for my birthday. Highly recommend!

Jessica Roe

Fantastic service and knowledge of coeliac. Highly recommend

Nicole Ruggiero

Absolutely love the menu here ! They are super safe for celiac and gluten free options!

Mia Hawley

Love the food here, lots of coeliac safe options. Staff are friendly, knowledgeable about coeliac disease, and have always been helpful!

Di Stevenson

Gluten Free

Mia Hawley

They have an entire GF menu with extensive options, and it’s all really delicious! One of my favourites in the area for GF Thai

Ri F

The food is always incredible, dine in or takeout they never miss! About 90% of the menu is gluten free. I have coeliac disease and I’ve only had great experiences here and always feel safe eating their food. Highly recommend for anyone gluten free

Michelle Theuma

Love this place. My go-to for safe gluten free Chinese food. Regular and gluten free menu.

Courtney Godden

Stopped in here for some food. Awesome customer service, delicious food, well priced and lots of gluten free options. After eating there I cannot believe that this restaurant isn't more highly rated.

Ellen M

I look forward to my Drs appointments so I have an excuse to pop into Simbashi. Noodles, sashimi, karaage, agadeshi tofu, it’s all top notch. Wholly safe facility and my friends & family don’t believe me it’s all gluten free!

Liam Harwood

Great place was celiac friendly, only 1 item on menu has gluten. But kept separate will be returning.

Shurz Squid

Good food and gluten free!

S G

Food was good and good range of gluten free options, but cocktails are a joke. I paid $23 for a cocktail that I’m 90% sure had no alcohol in it at all, and what it lacked in alcohol it certainly made up for in ice. For me, if I’m going to have a nice dinner out, the cocktails need to be good. I could have bought 1/2 bottle of tequila for that price.

Laura Ryan

Coeliac friendly food

Alicia Savelloni

Our party of 4 had a terrific experience at Yoko at an early Saturday evening sitting. Our waitress was excellent, and even remembered that we had visited a year ago. The food was so very very delicious, and an extra bonus that almost everything was able to be made gluten free for the 2 celiacs in our party. My mum even got a happy birthday song and a cheesecake with a candle! It really was a special evening and we loved it all. Thank you, we will visit again.

Nina L

Delicious gluten-free crispy chicken and hot chips. Great service, super friendly 👍🏻

Jess Hughes

We had such an amazing experience at Mamasan. I am gluten free and this was no trouble for them and the food was just incredible. Service was fantastic everyone was so lovely and helpful! We will definitely be coming back 🙌🏻

Daniel Scanlon

This place is incredible. I’m gluten free (celiac) and it had so many options that were naturally GF, and it’s the first time I’ve ever had GF bao. My wife and I’s favorite restaurant we tried in Melbourne without a doubt, and she’s not GF. Andre is an absolute legend. Highly recommend this place, especially if GF.

Talea Foley

Incredibly accomodating and knowledgeable about gluten free/coeliacs and what is suitable on their menu. Even come by with a card for you to have near your place setting with “coeliac” written so no servers mistake your order.

Elena Corso

All the food is vegan and gluten free. Set menu is very convenient and there is plenty of food. Definitely recommended if you have allergies or follow a vegetarian/vegan diet. Staff are nice and welcoming, definitely gonna go back!

Karen Walsh

It’s always great to find a place with plenty of gluten free options and an understanding of coeliac safety. It’s a bonus when the food is as good as it was here. Thoroughly enjoyed the fried rice with Moreton Bay bugs, the short ribs and the tasty rice cakes. Awesome flavours, good heat from the chilli’s. Great dinner!

Murphy Willock

Came to Bird's Nest to catch up with friends. The atmosphere is incredible, very warm and inviting. Food and drinks were amazing, such good flavours! Normally only two skewers per serving but were kind enough to add an extra so every member of our three person party could have one. The servers were awesome, very attentive - regularly checking on water and filling glasses and taking empty plates. Excellent gluten free accomodation and understanding. Will definitely be coming back, 100%.

Shannon Coombes

Great gluten free dumplings! Friendly staff

Emma Duff

Seriously amazing place to visit. I've been twice and definitely will return. The owner and staff make you feel so welcome. They recognized me from my last visit which was just astonishing. The food is perfection and the prices are extremely fair. Serving sizes are huge! I'm coeliac and there is so much choice for gluten free options that I don't feel like I'm missing out. Thank you so much Andy and staff! You will see me every time I visit Mildura from now on 🥰

Sheree Gillen

We were hunting high and low for Gluten Free options and stumbled upon this little treasure. Great food and the mocktails were delicious.

Jacob H

Fantastic all round. We didn't have a booking but the staff made room for us. Amazing food, great service and good pricing. My partner is celioac and they brought her a specialised menu and made everything she wanted completely gluten free. They even used a separate fryer for the chicken. Can recommend the feed me option.
