No MSG No Garlic Foodie
We decided to visit Victoria after finding several restaurants offering vegan food. Since Be Love is dedicated vegan and also gluten free, it was my first choice. However, there wasn't that many items on the menu to my taste, but since they promise seasonal items, I had hoped that there would be some pleasant surprises. The rest of my party decided to order organic red and white wines by the glass. I chose Earthblood Tonic juice made with carrot, beet, celery, kale and ginger. It was very refreshing and looked stunning. The Mac Bowl appealed to me because it claimed to have braising greens, seasonal vegetable, and broccoli. I was warned that the sauce contains garlic, but I took a chance hoping that it would be black garlic rather than fresh garlic. Fortunately, the garlic was hardly noticeable and I was not affected. It was a very rich dish and I loved the creamy taste of the sauce. The roasted hazel nuts were strange and tasted as though the vegetables still had soil/sand/grit. I was disappointed with the scant amount of greens and vegetables, and if I had known, I might have asked for extra vegetables. And of course, I could not finish it the macaroni. If it wasn't for the 'gritty texture' I would have rated this four stars. My friends ordered the daily special gluten free ravioli with nettle. They all loved it. We also shared a platter with flatbread, cashew cream cheese, apple & beet chutney. I was only able to have one item because the rest were heavy with garlic.
A vibrant spot with cozy vibes and thoughtful staff, perfect for enjoying unique vegan dishes and creating safe dining experiences.

Thank you for making pizza that I can actually eat that tastes amazing. Finding a gluten-free/dairy-free pizza that doesn’t taste like chemicals and sadness is a true feat. ❤️
A charming spot with a creative twist on brunch, offering unique drinks and fresh, farm-to-table options that'll keep you coming back for more.

This place is unreal! One of the best breakfasts of my life. Begging for y’all to open a location in LA. Objectively delicious breakfast. Plus perfect for my gluten and dairy free needs. I’m still thinking about that hollandaise. Kind staff. Good vibes. Went back the next day it was so good. If I lived in Victoria I would eat here once a week at least. Wish I could give more stars. NEVER CLOSE I BEG.
Enjoy a beautiful waterfront setup with a lively summer vibe, tasty cocktails, and a variety of unique options for everyone.

This place is one of the best restaurants we've been to in a while. Everything we had was fantastic: Beef tenderloin carpaccio, smoked chicken penne, pan seared miso halibut, blackened creole chicken.
My wife has celiac and they have a lot of options. The gluten free penne was probably the best GF pasta she has tried.
We also had a few cocktails and they were all well made. Earl Grey Martini was a stand out for me.
Our server was very nice and accommodating as well and service was very fast.
Enjoy a vibrant atmosphere with stunning waterfront views, making it a perfect hangout for friends or a nice treat.

Had dinner with My best friend and my mother last night. Shalena’s service was exceptional. My mum has food issues that can be a challenge. Shalena could not have been more accommodating.
Mum often avoids going for dinner due to her FOD diet
Mum was so happy to be so well taken care. Thank you for the exceptional service.
They have a special deep fryers to accommodate people who are celiac and willing to adjust a dish to suit my mums food challenges.
Cheers

They don't have many gluten free options. I ordered and was assured that the kitchen will take care. I got sick later that night as I have celiac disease. So care was not taken.
Experience a warm vibe with tender, perfectly smoked meats, and an impressive array of unique sides that keep everyone coming back for more.

Great celiac safe barbecue place! Everything is GF except waffles and regular buns, but they take precautions to keep celiac customers safe (changing gloves, etc). They have fantastic fried chicken which is GF, fried only with fries (also GF), and the regular bbq things. Great sandwiches, poutine, and fried chicken!
Enjoy a great atmosphere with a variety of unique menu options and stunning views, perfect for a relaxed visit any time.

We loved our visit to Finn’s. Great service, food and atmosphere. I had the seafood linguine, my partner had Finn’s burger on a gluten free bun, and we shared the bison Carpaccio to start. Everything was delicious. Sad I didn’t get any pictures.
Expect a bustling vibe with a variety of spicy noodle dishes and fresh flavors that keep everyone coming back for more.

I explicitly asked for gluten free noodles due to an allergy, the cashier misunderstood and made gluten noodles. Spoke to owner and they weren’t willing to remake or refund :(
Enjoy a lively atmosphere with great drinks and live music, perfect for a memorable night out!

We needed gluten free and we were very happy to know that they have a dedicated gluten free menu and they use a dedicated gluten free fryer for their food. It can be really hard to find a lot of places like this, but this is by far my favourite place to eat in Victoria! I really want to thank everyone there who made it very easy to find safe food for us.

We took our grandson for an early dinner and thoroughly enjoyed the food. There was a gluten choice of noodles which many places don’t have. Upon leaving, we forgot our umbrella and they were so kind that after almost over a month, they still kept it for us. Very friendly staff

Such a great setting for a restaurant and pub with a nice view. Food and service is good.
I can’t believe at this day an age in Victoria, that a restaurant that doesn’t have ANY gluten free options for sandwiches/toast/buns. Just do the standard technique of buying a bag of GF products to keep in the freezer and charge everyone an extra couple dollars for when someone needs it. A little effort goes a long way here.
Their fries leave a lot to be desired, but the broth/liquid with the Moules and Frites was DELICIOUS!
A charming spot known for its flavorful tapas and vibrant atmosphere, perfect for a fun night out or casual gathering.

As a celiac, this place was easy to share plates (something we don't often get to do with our friends and family). Loved all the GF options on the menu and the variety. Food was so delicious.
