AMAZING GF PITA! Celiac certified in Australia!

I tried their unlimited tacos and cocktails last weekend, and it was such great value for money! It’s just $59 per person and even includes a starter. The tacos were so fresh, served on soft corn tortillas with delicious, flavourful fillings. There were beef, chicken, prawn, and vegetarian options available. I also love that they cater to various dietary requirements, including gluten-free and coeliac.

Argentina Cabrera

The best Mexican I have ever had!

Paul Neely

All gluten free, a favourite for family celebrations

Benji Greig

Fantastic food! Was so nice to have an entire menu Gluten free that we didn't need to think about it. So delicious. Lovely friendly staff. We'll definitely be there again.

Mariane Morin

Very impressed with the quality and variety of the vegan set menu. Cocktail was also delicious! A little slice of heaven for a coeliac babe 🤗

Evan W

Great variety of food. delicious flavours and well presented. All gluten free so easy for coeliacs and excellent range of drinks and cocktails. Buzzing vibe with a retro feel

Mission District serves hands down the best Mexican food I’ve ever had the pleasure of eating, ever! There was seriously not a single thing that we ordered that I disliked, as everything was irrefutably DE! LI! CIOUS! This place now holds a special place in my heart because it’s where I ate a burrito (Yes, a BURRITO! NOT a burrito bowl! — Fellow coeliacs, iykyk) for the first time in my life and honestly, I absolutely, totally get the craze now! 🤤🤤🤤 Furthermore, the fact that the restaurant is accredited by Coeliac Australia is a monumental bonus which negates the typical dining out anxiety. The venue has some cute decor choices— not something I typically mention in my reviews but couldn’t help but compliment anyway. The service staff were very friendly too, which is one of the many, many awesome things about this place. Mission District is most definitely and officially my top place for Mexican now for sure; there’s really no other place that compares!

The chef and the owner is so nice and welcoming. Food was great. Dedicated Gluten-free restaurant 100% Gluten-free menu. Specially Gluten-free garlic bread was like the best.

No longer 100% gluten free, and can’t even cater for it adequately despite saying they can on their menu - didn’t notify us until 30 mins before our booking despite us specifying “gluten free” in our booking 5 days in advance, and couldn’t offer substitutions for their set menu (their menu now says only a couple of things aren’t gluten free, but we were told anything on the grill is no longer gluten free, so the menu is incorrect as well). To make matters worse, they take the full amount from your card for the set menu at the time of booking upfront, and then you have to wait days to get your money back if you’re not going. This place was an institution for coeliacs - if that’s why you were going, don’t bother.

Bianca

Great variety of quality foods. Perfect place to take the family, child friendly. Amazing gluten free options.

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.

Annette O'Dell

Best gluten free Pizza I’ve had maybe ever. So so yummy. Great vibes and great service, cannot recommend enough!

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.

Brooke Thompson

Absolutely love it here! Staff are always super friendly and down to earth. Atmosphere is warm and cosy. Having a pub feed as a coeliac can be incredibly challenging but these guys make it so easy with their super inclusive menu and kitchen. Food is great and so is the drinks selection!

Aysha Egglestone

Very vibrant and fun restaurant with lots of different seating options. Nice food and plenty of vegan and gluten free options - they even have a vegan chefs menu which is very reasonable priced. Staff were nice. Will be back!

Aussie Ned Reviews

Possibly the best Mexican restaurant going around, always try and make a stop off here when visiting Ballarat from Melbourne. The vegetarian and Gluten Free options are spot on. The atmosphere is a vibe and the staff are super friendly. Would recommend the Pabellon Criollo!

baibri

Very helpful with a seperate gluten free menu offered for the GF foodies. Food always on point! Only thing I would recommend is more lemon on those roast potatoes (or on the side) YUM!

Janet Mortimer

The dining room is the perfect place to have a small family gathering and to chat without having to shout over other diners. Staff were great and interacted well with everyone. gluten free alternatives to a couple of items on the set menu were delicious. Well done Sebastian

siobhan mead

Fantastic evening. They catered to my not gluten diet with ease and understanding, amazing food. Thank you

Amie Lou

Wonderful, soothing lighting and not too many tables squashed together. Not too loud either, you can hear your conversation. Our server was so attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The food was delicious and the drinks cold. They do take away meals too so we got our dessert to take home as we were full but the food was so good we didn’t want to miss out on something tomorrow. I love that nearly everything is gluten free. Highly recommend the gnocchi and the venue.

Nikki Devis

Amazing gluten free food, almost everything on the menu can be made gluten free. I loved the gnocchi. Also has a plant based menu that looks delicious. Great service, delicious food.

Ricardo Caviedes Bejarano

Ladro in Fitzroy is without a doubt one of the best Italian restaurants in Melbourne. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the service is impeccable. I tried the Badabing pizza, and it was spectacular—perfectly crispy crust, fresh ingredients, and an unbeatable balance of flavors. We also had homemade pasta and a tiramisu that ended the night on a perfect note. I also loved that they offer vegan and gluten-free options, showing their commitment to all diners. I will definitely be back. Highly recommended!

Carrie Webster

Perfectly seasoned fried gluten free chicken, excellent sides, margarita was great, very friendly fast service, slaaaaay!!! Even the lighting was nice.

Elias Sanchez

Absolutely blown away! For what started as an impulse visit ended in black sheep becoming one of the best eating experiences I've ever had. Menu is well rounded with plenty of gluten free and vegan options,service is absolutely lovely,huge shoutout to Rose for lovely table service and suggestions,hats off to everyone involved

Gary Chapman

We arrived as first time visitors to Australia and 20mins before closing!! We asked if it was too late to order as we had just got off airplane and were starving they said no problem. We both had two drinks and I had an unbelievable pizza, my wife had gluten free pasta as she is gluten intolerant and had lots options, she said it was amazing. The background music was brilliant 70’s and 80’s rock and pop. We were not rushed at all, staff were very friendly and chatty. We will return to enjoy another evening there before leaving. They

Samantha Ryan

Just seriously good food with plenty of options for gluten free and vegans. A nice vibe and friendly service

Nicole Bailey

Had the beef brisket burger. It was fab!

brooke tranter

Good food and great service. Really good with gluten free and could cater for coeliacs. The lovey Irish couple that run the kitchen kept the kitchen open for us to have dessert. Good people.

Laura Hunt

We came for a late lunch and had a few smaller dishes, they were all fantastic. Everything was so delicious, we had the focaccia with pumpkin tahini, the romana beans, chipotle chicken and the arancini. Some of the tastiest food we’ve had in Melbourne. It’s a great location on the beach and has a nice vibe. Plenty of vegetarian and gluten free options.

Jeanette St Clair

Handy place to eat if you’re heading to the Regent or Athaneum theatres. Great atmosphere. Emma looked after us beautifully. Plenty of gluten free options. Only one GF dessert but it was full of flavour.

Antony Kellerman

Absolutely amazing! I have visited many times and have never been disappointed. They have a great selection of vegan and gluten-free options. Highly recommended!

E-K W

I am so glad I found this joint! A cool space with a good atmosphere and excellent customer service. If you’ve seen any of my food posts you’ll know I’m that person with a ridiculous food intolerance that is usually not considered. Here it was! They have a separate emu that lists the items open for vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, fructose free, onion free and garlic and onion free! What? So good! My bloke and I shared a few dishes when eating out for the first time in… for ever! Delicious cabbage and pork dumplings, legit fried rice, crispy pork belly and eye fillet steak - we had sauces on the side for him to enjoy and me to avoid and both thoroughly enjoyed a top notch, tasty meal along with a couple of crisp and light rice lagers. I bought some of the yummy smelling teas to go. A first class experience. Thanks!

Wayne Leitch

When I questioned the 'gluten free' chips, I was assured that all products that go into the fryer are gluten free. Amazing to hear from a Coeliac. The gluten free crumbed chicken parma was delicious.

Anthony

Campground Kitchen & Bar is a wonderful restaurant that has great service, delicious food and a great atmosphere. I had the gluten free meatballs and a gluten free mushroom pizza that were super tasty! Great to see more accredited gluten free restaurants.

Laura Martin

Bottomless brunch experience served by Laura. Understand coeliac requirements and brought a wonderful experience. Would highly recommend for an outing on Southbank.

Seraphim

Had a great dinner at Taquito, had plenty of gluten free options for my wife, even changed some menu items to make them gluten free friendly. Highly recommend, we will definitely be back.

Kate Paul

House made soda was amazing. I had pineapple and lime. The corn on the cob was very nice. Good spices. I had gluten free and vegan burrito. I've never been able to order that at a restaurant. It was fresh and tasty. It had mushrooms and spinach in it. Very interesting flavours. Only bad thing about the place is that you have to go up stairs to get to the restaurant, but that's not their fault. Very busy place. Loved it.

Kathy Hale

The Korean fried chicken is to die for. Porterhouse cooked perfectly, best hubby has had in a long time. Gluten free version of prawn linguine yum yum. Service professional and friendly. We ate here 3 nights in one week, couldn't stay away!

meirav baron

Delicious food. Went with family, some vegan, some gluten free… everyone found suitable options and we all loved the food. Will de going there again!!!

bronwen fletcher

Delicious pizzas including gluten free bases; fantastic variety Great range of cocktails and friendly service

Sammi Shimmin

Stunning Sunday out - throughly enjoined the Gin High Tea! We had a big group and were really well looked after by Jack, Dani and Ella! The cocktails were really special thanks to Emma and Serena behind the bar. All of the food was super yum, vegetarian and gluten free also well accounted for! Would definitely recommend for a special occasion or just a weekend treat! So cute and fun x

arianna azuan

Best vegan mexican food i’ve had in melbourne! Good gluten-free options too. Our waiter Hayley was also very pleasant and friendly! 10/10 would recommend

Georgia Grindal

I asked for a lactose free hot chocolate and was given oat milk, which contains gluten. As well as given seasoning on my meal that also contains gluten, after stating clearly that I was gluten intolerant. Staff are not knowledgeable about dietary restrictions and intolerances.

Phil Nicholson

Excellent spot especially for food allergies. Wife and I had an great 3 course meal that cater for low fodmap and celiac diets. The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable about our requirements and there recommendations of baked brie and the risotto were spot on! The low fodmap wagyu burger was one of the best I have eaten. This meal was the highlight of our stay in the city. Will definitely be back and will bring more people :-)

Jess

Good gluten free options, great cocktails

Isabelle Jenkins

We recently celebrated our 30th birthday at The National in Richmond, and it was beyond perfect! From the moment we arrived, Sasha and Mario went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and catered to every detail of our event with such care and professionalism. The food was absolutely delicious—everyone couldn’t stop raving about it! The gluten-free and vegan options were especially impressive, which was such a relief with the dietary needs of our group. The whole experience was seamless, and we couldn’t have asked for a better venue or more attentive staff. Thank you, The National, for making our celebration unforgettable!
