Had a lovely pizza and Choc brownie, highly recommend it, but what made the place so memorable was the server Sienna who was awesome and the young chef who took the time to ensure we enjoyed our meal. The only downside was that the gluten free pizza crust my buddy had was not so good but edible.

GLUTEN FREE CROISSANT OF MY DREAMS!!

Ivo S

So many amazing GF options - almost 90% of the menu is naturally or can be made GF!

Not all who wander are lost.

My travel partner and I each had a gluten-free free lamborghini with salad. Fresh ingredients, meat had nice seasonings, and a good flat bread (gf "bun"). They earn a double tasty and a recommendation to all GF eaters out there. Already planning a return visit when back in Vancouver in a few weeks.

In heaven. Most items are or can be made safe for celiac. Had the Yum Bowl…sooooo good. The best part though? GLUTEN FREE ONION RINGS. They were just incredible. If you’re able, come down and chow down. It’s definitely worth it.

Dani

Best tacos in town. If you are a vegetarian and/ or have lactose or gluten sensitivities it's a Shangri-La for your tastebuds.

Jessica Shifrin

Came here for our anniversary dinner, as a celiac I usually avoid eating out Italian as the pasta substitute js subpar, that was not the case here. The best gluten free pasta I’ve ever had and most appies and all deserts were gluten free. My gluten eating husband also said it was the best pasta he’s ever had. Was nice to have a desert option that was not a flourless chocolate cake, highly recommend the olive oil cake! The service was really good and they were very knowledgeable about celiac. Would highly recommend!

Natsu Fujita

Good food, celiac friendly, lots of GF options available. Large portions, very full afterwards!

Jamie Potter

We were here from Ontario, and read that they served gluten free burgers and fries (my wife and son both have Celiac Disease). They were delicious!! Best burger and fries they've had, and my other two sons and I both loved our non gluten free burgers too. We all liked everything so much we came back a second time during our visit! Excellent and friendly service. Highly recommend!

Jessica Doig

Gluten free waffles with caramel sauce and sautéed bananas. Amazing!! You can also substitute the gf waffles as a savoury base for their eggs Benedicts. So scrumptious!

Anna Brundage

Very cute little spot for high tea in Kits! They have incredible options for celiac and/or dairy free folks. Great tea list as well! The scones (both gluten free and not!) were super delicious, as well as the vegan and non vegan cream options. I would definitely go back!

Kelly T

Wonderful food and service. They accommodated our son's peanut and tree nut allergies with ease and were so kind about it, which doesn't always happen. Such a cute vibe and location. Would come again and recommend especially to allergy families (also very gluten friendly)!

anthony dallazanna

gluten friendly options and can accommodate celiac

André Paris

I will however that the very busy bartender didn't know of his own establishments policies and practices surrounding gluten free. Everything is prepared separately. Use an app like find me GF if you want a more accurate picture of any establishment.

Nikul Sharma

We where served so well by the staff esp Ashwanth. The food was awesome and gluten free allergy was well taken care off. Highly recommend for ambience and Tasty Indian food.

Lindsay O'Grady

Gluten-Free pancakes with many options for toppings. Nice renovated atmosphere and friendly knowledgeable staff.

Mehdi Hosseyni

We visited your tea house to celebrate my wife's birthday. Overall, we appreciated several aspects of the experience: The greeting upon arrival was warm and welcoming. The timing for seating was perfect. The selection of teas was excellent. The atmosphere was delightful and contributed positively to the occasion. The savouries were enjoyable, and the gluten-free options were thoughtfully prepared. However, there were a few areas that could be improved: Unfortunately, the sweets did not taste fresh, which was disappointing, especially given the otherwise high quality of the experience. During my visit to the washroom, I observed three-four floor staff engaged in casual conversation and gathered around a cellphone, which gave the impression of inattentiveness. This was noticeable and detracted somewhat from the overall service standard. That said, one of the team members provided particularly professional and attentive service, which we truly appreciated. In summary, while the experience was pleasant in many ways, we felt that the value did not fully match the $56 per person price point. For that reason, we are unlikely to return, but we do hope our feedback is helpful and constructive. Thank you for the experience.

Matt Schmitt

Awesome gluten free options!

Анна Нікіфорова

That is a very nice place, with a lot of gluten free, vegetarian and vegan options. I got the drink on the house and it was delicious and refreshing lemonade. Didn’t get the chance to ask a servers name, but he was delightful and very friendly. The food was well seasoned and really tasty. I also asked about the weight of lamb to count the proteins and they provided that to me. I would rate it 6 stars if I could.

Patty Bowman

Great service and great gluten free menu!

Gerald King

Get your gluten free on with some delicious pizza!

R.

Pretty good portion on the dosas if you get their Dosa of the day. I like the lamb on Tuesdays. Pretty fast at in-between times (non-dinner time) when they are quite empty. The dosa is probably gluten-friendly but you might want to ask if other ingredients inside it are gluten-friendly too.

Lindsey Johnston

Had a great first experience here today. They are especially accommodating for Gluten free options.

Server was wonderful - very knowledgeable about the menu and the wines. I got a gluten free pizza that was pretty terrible, probably the worst one I've gotten in a restaurant actually- the crust was thin and chewy, not in a good way; it was like a frozen pizza. The ceaser salad had polenta croutons that were good but there was only like 4 of them total. I felt safe as a celiac and there was lots of GF stuff on the menu to try, but definitely avoid the pizza. (If you want good GF pizza in the area go across the street to Per Se, it's the best I've ever had!) I would come back to try the other options though.

RIZZO 250

Really nice place to relax with a few drinks. Didn't have any food as we had just come from a café but we did get a flight and oh my god. I need to go back to get more if that blueberry basil. Until I do it will stay in my dreams, Highly recommend checking it out. They had indoor outdoor seating. Their menu had things marked as Gluten Free although since we didn't order im not sure if they have a designated fryer or not. Thankyou for the wonderful service staff, you were all so nice 😊

Megan Veaudry

Amazing eggs Benny! I appreciate the Gluten Free option for the Benny, and the Ceasars and mimosas are fantastic.

Darragh Greaney

Couldn’t recommend this place more. Staff were honestly amazing. Modified the menu for celiac and honestly was so so tasty. Hats off to the chefs! Special thanks to Kat, Paige and Darren. They were so welcoming and nice, one of best experiences we’ve had to date in Vancouver. Thank you all 🎉

Brooks Nicols

Delicious vegetarian menu including several signature concoctions and several dishes which are also gluten free, or vegan or vegan option. Every food dish is healthy here. At least everything here is served with healthy intent. I only say this because they do serve beer and wine also.

Chelsea Marcantonio

So many amazing vegan and gluten free options 😍😍😍

Unforgettable Dining Experience at Zarak – A Must-Visit! I had the pleasure of dining at Zarak for the first time in July with a group of five people, each of us with different dietary restrictions – gluten-free, dairy-free, coconut-free, and vegetarian. While I initially felt overwhelmed by the menu, our server, Sanmeet, turned what could have been a stressful situation into a seamless and enjoyable experience. She took the time to carefully listen to our restrictions and, in less than a minute, curated the perfect menu for us, ensuring we could enjoy our time together without worrying about what to order. Her recommendations were spot on, and the variety of cocktails was equally impressive! From the moment we stepped into the restaurant, the entire team made us feel welcome and cared for. The level of attentiveness was beyond compare. One detail that stood out to me was how the staff intuitively timed their service – they approached us only during natural pauses in our conversations, which I deeply appreciated. At one point, I needed a napkin, and just as I was about to ask, one of the staff members approached me, and it felt like they had read my mind. It’s those small details that really made the experience special. Now, the food was incredible, but what made the evening truly unforgettable was the exceptional level of customer service. Towards the end of the night, everyone except me ordered dessert because I couldn’t find anything on the menu that was both dairy-free and coconut-free, which I was fine with. Sanmeet noticed and immediately went above and beyond to accommodate me. Within minutes, she brought out a delicious pistachio gelato, which had no gluten, coconut, or dairy – and it was on the house! That thoughtful gesture spoke volumes about her dedication to making sure everyone had a wonderful time. What’s even more impressive is that when my partner and I returned to Zarak a month and a half later for drinks and dinner, Sanmeet remembered us. The genuine smile on her face when I greeted her by name made it clear that this restaurant isn’t just about serving great food – it’s about creating lasting relationships with their guests. Sanmeet’s warmth, attention to detail, and genuine care for her guests left an incredible impression on me, and I’ve been raving about Zarak to everyone I know. If you ever visit, I highly recommend asking for her – she truly made our dining experience unforgettable. I look forward to returning again and again!

Hayley Cloona

Gluten free heaven. You need to try their pancakes! Great portions, great prices and great flavors. The staff are always lovely too. Be prepared to wait 15-20 minutes at busy times like Saturday morning. But it's well worth the wait!

Shachar Tsafon

Best brunch in Van imo. Place is so nice, the staff inviting, the food excellent. Big portions and everything was tasty. They have a fantastic gluten free bread, which is always a plus. Totally recommend!

Lauren P

Y'all!! I've been getting delivery for a while from here, but finally went in to eat the other day. The staff were all friendly. I would've given 5 stars to the delivery quality alone, but would give 6 stars for the fresh stuff. The machetes are phenomenal. ¡Perfecto! And the yuca fries... *Drools As a celiac, it's nice that most things are gluten free, and as I've never felt sick from eating here, it's one of my safe go-to restaurants. If you're in the area, I would 100% recommend this place, especially if you eat gluten-free (or even have dairy restrictions too, they can take care of you).

Shilpa Parveen

They have REAAALLY good Vegan and Gluten Friendly donuts! 😭🫶🏻I’m so glad.

Jenna Machin

Delicious gluten free crepes and kind service from Aizaz!

tyler petrowski

Kiki is the best in biz very careful when it comes to allergy’s celiacs welcome !

Becca

This place was great! As someone with celiac disease, it was so nice to know everything was 100% gluten free, and my non celiac fiance loved the bowl he got too. I had the regular size porchetta with honey mustard, rice pilaf and garden salad and it was delicious and the perfect portion. Will 100% go back next time I am in the city! But do note, there is no bathroom so make sure to not wait until you get to the restaurant like I did, assuming there would be one lol.

Barbara Ernst

Amazing food and cocktails! Definitely will return and good gluten free options!

Nikita Crane

A definite treat dinner due to its higher cost but knowledgeable servers and happy to make amendments to offer GF options

chloe kf

Amazing service, ambiance & food! Accommodated gluten free so well! Very cozy! Great drinks also!

Madison

I love the work out classes, and LOVE that they have so many vegan and gluten free pastries.

Jemma Lee

Had the BLT bagel it was stacked with bacon and great value, DELICIOUS! Loved the mayo/sauces and guac it had on it! Espresso drinks have minimal sweetness which is nice. Quite impressed with the food and drink I enjoyed here today. Also loved the gluten free options. The service was wonderful. Looking forward to summer mornings on the patio with my dogs. Will definitely be back again and again!

SYDNEY HOLMES

super friendly server (Helena) who was very attentive and helpful. very helpful with gluten free food options

Alex Kuhlman

I have Celiac disease and I was able to safely enjoy their delicious black cod breakfast set! Very many gluten free options, many of the things here are gluten free by default, and GF options are clearly marked. The staff were friendly and able to answer my questions. The food and the atmosphere are both so incredibly comforting! I will definitely return here again!

Georgiy Trucking LLC georgiy yatsenko

This is the best bakery in Vancouver with lot of great choices for pastries and even gluten free desserts Awesome place to get your sweets.

Krista Vandersteen

The cafe was busy with people steadily coming in on a Sunday morning. I had the gluten free vanilla donut which was good. I almost didn't go here because I didn't see any reference to dietary options on the page overview so they could be better about highlighting those options. They also had oat or almond milk alternatives. They have minimal seats inside but have a large enclosed patio.
