Top 50 Gluten-Free Asian Culinary Gems to Explore in Edmonton

John Truong

Hidden gem for not only the best Chinese food in Edmonton but because most of the dishes can be made gluten free!!! Staff are very knowledgeable about allergies.

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!

Kevin Horek

Love the gluten free wraps

India Cyr

Visiting from Calgary and stopped by Remedy Café for their gluten-free options. The staff assured me food prep is safe for celiacs, with a separate prep area, toaster, and utensils. Tried the coconut chicken wrap on a GF wrap, Punjabi style — absolutely flavorful and filling. Saved half for later! Great experience and will definitely be back. Shoutout to the server for being knowledgeable of gluten free practices and a stellar recommendation for my wrap!

Vanessa Oakley

I went to P.F. Chang's for the first time last month. I was alone because I was on a work trip. Even though this is a family style restaurant, I had the best time dining alone. The food was so good!! Liam, my server was so nice and helpful as it was my first time. I have celiac disease, this was no problem at all, I had quite a few options and all things I ate were delicious! I highly recommend checking it out. I can't wait to go back with some friends.

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!

Sean Wilson

Very lackluster as no real flavor in the sub I had (korean bbq). The gluten free bun my other half had was nice she said. Bun also didn't taste fresh on mine and not a lot of ingredients on it. Pop $2.25 not $1.50 as it says on the menu sign at the front. Its not that big a price deal but when I pointed it out it was dismissed. That after they mistakenly tried to charge $4.00 for each pop. Bottom line is for the price it was not worth it for me so would not return. Place was clean though.

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!

Catherine Tays

Such tasty food and fantastic service as well. You can ask for a separate menu to see the vegan, gluten-free, and dairy free options, of which there are many, including vegan and gluten-free naan. Do not miss the Cauliflower 65. The cocktails are great and the restaurant mood was great too.

Greg

Very accommodating for gluten-free. Thank you!

Thomas Gondos

Excellent food, able to accommodate my gluten free diet with special menu highlighting gluten free items. Able to accommodate.adate our large group of 18 with a constant flow if delicious hot foods

Elizabeth Webb

Great restaurant for people with celiac disease, no compromises required as all the sauces are gluten free.

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).

Hippie Tech

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.

Jesse Kane

Been a safe place for my celiac wife to eat

Gwendolyn Charmaine

The service was excellent and the food was really good. Very soft and fresh. The only thing Is there weren't much options for someone who is both gluten free and vegetarian. I had avocado rolls and California rolls without any crab. They did have gluten free soy sauce so that was nice too. The lady tried really hard to be accommodating and to support my dietary concerns. She told me that she would use a fresh cutting board and prepare my food separately to make sure that there was no gluten contamination. Very considerate! Thank you! :)

Helen and Barry Daymond

What a beautiful spot in Windemere. Gorgeous decor, professional service and the food was outstanding. I am Celiac and our server Dana was very knowlegable, explained their cross contamination practices and ensured I was well taken care of. Stars of the meal for me were Tuna Tataki appetizer and Pressed Salmon Sushi although everything we tried was excellent.

Cassi Stark

Decided to try this place last night as it's close to home. I got the Vermicelli bowl with Chicken and Prawns as they were able to make it gluten free! The chicken was so yummy and charred to perfection. The portion size was super big for what you pay for! Can't wait to try out some more menu items!

Melanie Ashdown

The sweet Tamari gluten free option is so delicious! My daughter is celiac and she loves it!

Sydney

We loved this place! It’s a cozy little venue and service was super fast, and the food was absolutely delicious! We had the tonkotsu & the gluten free white miso - both were amazing. It’s not easy to find gluten free ramen, and they knocked it out of the park. I would absolutely recommend giving this place a try!

J Montgomery

Gluten free options that are delicious! Staff are very lovely on the phone and in person. Will definitely return.

Anna Marosi

This is a very specific review! I used to eat at Zen before I got diagnosed with celiac disease and they are a friendly establishment with good food. After getting diagnosed with celiac, I was pleasantly surprised to discover they had a dedicated gluten free menu. I have eaten at the restaurant with that menu and it has been fine. The issue arose today when I made an order through Ubereats. Zen allows you to input allergy information so I emphasized that I have celiac and the importance of making sure my food does not come into contact with items that contain gluten. I was very disappointed to find that when I opened my box of maki, there were several sticky packets of soy sauce (which has gluten) pressed up against my food. Makes me question how seriously they follow dietary restrictions or requirements in the end and I will unfortunately no longer be eating here

Shanna Liu

Got gluten friendly chicken here and it was so flavorful and crispy! The owners are super friendly and too time to tell us about the different flavors :)

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!

Nox Sutherland-Carruthers

Delicious Pho & Sushi! The gluten-free substitutions were great and the staff were knowledgeable. The presentation on each dish was immaculate. We really enjoyed eating here and will definitely come by again!

Ryan Brown

Tokyo Noodle Shop is a complete gem hidden in the downtown core. Amazing sushi, great noodles, wonderful gluten-free options, and fantastic service. This restaurant is absolutely worth your time.

Aaron J. JacksonCrabb

First time here! Everything we ate was deeeeeeelicious!! Bonus was the Pho Beef #1 was spicy and gluten-free!! Will be back again soon!

Sarah Marie

I don’t usually review restaurants, but the staff was so incredibly kind and attentive I had to! Delicious food, great staff, and excellent with gluten sensitivities!

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:)

Shauna Hosegood

I can't find menu ingredients on their website. Their gluten friendly Pad Thai is amazing though.

Vanessa Kaschl

What a great find! Sushi was yummy, fresh and fast. I have celiac disease and our server was knowledgeable and let me know what was safe and not safe to eat. They have gluten free soya sauce too. It was a pleasure dining at I Love Sushi and definitely will dine there again.

Dan Dall'Acqua

Great food, great value, and good gluten-free options!

Chris Bodnar

Ahi nigiri is unreal. Hamachi rolls are great. Very gluten friendly, will work with Celiac to accomodate.

Genoa Valle

We came for a family birthday celebration. We liked the atmosphere and the food was delicious. They could accommodate gluten free for the members of our group with celiac. I can’t wait to come back.

Sierra Manntai

This is our favorite pho in the city! And gluten friendly too! Pho is gluten free (without hoisin sauce). Vermicelli is also gluten free (without spring rolls). Staff communicate clearly and confidently about gluten and other ingredients.

Rob Petri

Great selection of gluten free options. Loved the corn tea

Celine M

I had the salmon pressed sushi which is one of a few items that can be modified for gluten-free (celiac). The server was very friendly and accommodating to ensure the kitchen staff changed their gloves before preparing my items. I also got GF soy sauce!

Madea Gem

Got the gluten free pad thi. Tasted wierd and also smelled awful. This place is not it.

Sayyad Bacchus

Love their assorted sashimi platter. Also, they offer gluten free soy sauce which is a nice bonus for those who require it.

Emily Aru

So delicious! And service is so welcoming :). Gluten free options as well!!

Abner Fernandes

Good employees order was to perfection gluten free soya sauce available.

Eilleen V

Quick and easy. A smidgen pricey for the amount given but dishes are fresh and packed with flavor. Tons of delicious vegan options and some gluten free options as well - something for everyone.

Tia Hallis

We had a wonderful experience! Our server Ellen went above and beyond. She even caught on that my mum is not eating gluten and without us asking she brought over the gluten free menu and a GF soy sauce! Best service we have had in a long time! WE LOVE NAGOYA <3

Google User

Pretty good/great food. Beef & broccoli is always ordered. The gluten-friendly dishes are great as well. Overall this is the one restaurant that we frequently visit. Usually decent food and prices are reasonable and service is always with a smile.

Nicole Ball

The gentleman that helped me was very knowledgeable and also had lots of gluten sensitive knowledge to help avoid those items. Such a friendly atmosphere! Thank you

Raya Schwets

Consistently bad service. Our servers constantly seem as if they're annoyed to be serving you and never come by. The food was ok we could only have the late night menu due to the time. The bao buns my friend had could have had more meat in it. I had the only gluten friendly option on the menu and it was fine. Nothing remarkable or particularly off putting. Please work on the service.

hanan mohamed

the staff here is super friendly, the food was amazing as well! they have vegetarian and gluten free options and were very accommodating to any questions i had. highly recommend this location, it’s worth the visit :)

Chris Pettican

Food is always fresh tasting. Good selection of gluten free options.

Judy Lefebvre

They make gluten free sushi to take home (no soya suace or sesame seeds) and it's delishous.

Kim Burton

My husband ordered a meal and asked for ketchup, twice and never did receive it. He asked for a pop, twice, finally received it halfway through his meal. At the end they asked if he would like a top to which he never did receive. I have celiac disease and asked about gluten free options since it was highlighted on the menu. I was really disappointed in the fact that the items listen as gf, where not indeed gf. How can this restaurant claim that their menu items as gf when they are not, so misleading and downright dangerous. If I had not probed with some further questions I would have been very ill by ordering something that they falsely claimed to be gluten free. This shows a lack of understanding in the food industry. I would have expected a restaurant in the downtown core of edmonton to be more professional than this.
