Delicious food, one of my favorite places. Many gluten-free options

Eric Stcyr

Had an amazing dinner, the food and drinks were excellent and they were very accommodating to dietary restrictions (vegan, gluten free) in our group. The service was also outstanding and each person in our group received a fresh rose at the end of the meal. The ambiance was really nice as well. I highly recommend it!

Theresa Burris

An exceptional dining experience. Very impressed with how serious food allergies are treated. Our server, who was excellent, guaranteed no crosscontamination of gluten and the manager Yamac, who was particularly personable, attentive and pleasant, discussed the method of food preparation, ingredient substitution prior to the meal being made and checked in afterwards to confirm everything was satisfactory. My partner and I enjoyed every bite of our meals. I had the Chipotle Mango Chicken, my partner had the Grilled Chicken Zen Bowl. Photo of the Chipotle Mango Chicken enclosed. The cheesecake was the best that we ever had. The service was excellent. Hats off and thanks to Moxie's a restaurant doing it right. We will be back.

Such a fun place to eat. Celiac safe (in my experience) and most of the menu can be made gf. It tends to be noisy so if you're not into that kind of thing it's something to be aware of. It's a cozy spot and the service is always top notch. Once a dish wasn't what I'd hoped and the server inquired why I wasn't eating much. I didn't want to complain but after I told them I wasn't into it they brought a free dessert after offering to replace the whole meal (I was already full so I didn't want another). The one time I didn't love what I got they more than made up for it with the service. That same day I ate a bunch of another persons pasta and theirs was excellent, I think what I had was a one off and have gone back with 0 issues since.

This is such a wonderful place. The pizza is delicious, had the Mediterranean pizza, veggies so fresh. My sister is gluten intolerant and said their gluten free crust one of the best. We'll be back again. 😁🍕

Melissa Stephens

Nestled at the Halifax waterfront amongst historical buildings, the A Mano is a beautiful Italian restaurant that serves traditional fares with great pairings of wines and the usual beers. Service is smooth overall, but we did have a small issue with a gluten-free order, which needed to be rectified. We were a group of 8 and a wide selection of food was ordered. The Schiacciata, Sgabello, Calamari Fritti were good and perfect for a chilly evening. As the main course, Quattro Carni, fresh Halibut with Shrimps, Lasagna, Lamb Shank, Seafood Stew and the Linguini were good. We were too full and ordered the share Torta Per Due cheesecake and were not disappointed . Overall, good restaurant and great vibes for a chilled dinner next to the water.

I celebrated my birthday tonight with my mom and we both were given a complimentary drink and dessert. Very accommodating to my moms gluten allergy as well. We had a very good Waiter named Ethan and excellent service. Thank you again for the great experience and birthday dinner.

Amanda Lutz

We heard this place was good for gluten free but the menu was not marked to show what is or can be modified to be gluten free. When we asked our server, they really had no idea. They had to go get someone else to talk to us but did that after we ordered based on what they said. The food was fine but if you aren't going to mark your menu, your staff must be versed but really? Just mark it on the menu.

Would definitely recommend reservations, as the seating space is small and it can get busy. We had to wait across the street for a couple of bar seats to open up. The food. Wow, THE FOOD. Yep, it was amazing. We deemed this the favorite meal of our stay in Halifax. Redditors were not wrong with their praise of the establishment. We ended up ordering 3 entrees, two desserts, and several cocktails. We shared the food to sample all the flavors. The flavors were so well balanced. Delicate raw scallops were enhanced but not overpowered by the other ingredients, allowing the sweet, buttery taste to come through. The mackerel with swiss chard was delicious, as was the tuna tartare. You can't go wrong with any of the choices. They are also accommodating of dietary restrictions, as my daughter has gluten sensitivity. They were able to identify all the gluten items and served the sauce for the mackerel on the side so we could both enjoy the meal. Watching the bartender up close was a special treat. They make their own in-house flavor infusion mists to enhance the drinks and special care is taken in both the mixing and presentation of each drink. Great experience. GO!

One of my favorite dinners during our visit to Halifax. My family stayed in the neighborhood and walked here for dinner one night. Fantastic food, drinks, and atmosphere. I also have some dietary restrictions (gluten-free / dairy-free)and they were so kind and willing to accommodate. Would definitely go back next time I visit the area!

I have coeliac disease and have to be totally gluten free Just arrived from Wales uk ,the service was excellent very friendly staff and went though the menu to highlight everything they could do for me anybody coming to Nova Scotia should visit here coffee was amazing what a brilliant start to my holiday!!

Ian Lavoie

I came here with a group for lunch on the patio. The service was very friendly and helpful. The menu specified which options were vegan and gluten free. Some menu options were both.

Sharon Belanger

Nice place, good music. Gluten-free option. I had a cheesebuger poutine, it was very good! Fries with all the ingredients of a cheeseburger (except the bun) with a cheese sauce. My partner had the Smoked bacon mac and cheese served with toasted buns, delicious.

Barry Madill

Awesome place to munch. Proper size meals with normal prices. Gluten free options for my kid is huge in my book.

Annabelle Valliant-Fraser

Their cider is fantastic, and their food is also super great! Amazing service, great conversation and extremely helpful when it came to the tables gluten intolerance!!

Hadear Marzooque

One of the best experiences in Halifax restaurants. Certainly the best tasting seafood. I had the risotto and my friend had the chef Bryan scallop both were so delicious and gluten free. The atmosphere is charming with real candles and stonewalls. The service staff were so friendly and professional. Julia our waitress was courteous and alert. The menu options seemed somewhat limited and the prices are not cheap. I will visit again for oysters 🦪

Danny Allain

Great meal. Gluten free.

Kira

Drinks were great! Ordered the mushroom Bao bun and it was so rich and filling. The sauce legitimately makes you want to lick the plate. The were very accommodating for my gluten-free mom!

Daniel Covington

Alex Sweeney

The staff there are very friendly and accommodating for people who can't eat gluten, and the food was served very promptly. If you like pub-style food, you'll love the Auction House.
