My favourite cupcake place! Never had such a good cookie other than the marble one.

Everything!

The staff are super friendly and the food is delicious! I went with a group to carry things back for the family, and I'm convinced the only thing we didn't take was the bakery with us :) Things we got: date, key lime & strawberry squares, cinnamon buns, lemon blueberry danishes, chubby bunnies, bourbon tarts, a chicken pot pie, and a cherry pie. For a family that has egg allergies, gluten & dairy intolerance, everyone enjoyed the food. The only constructive criticism I'd give is maybe that the sucrose could be a bit less? However, overall, we enjoyed ghe food and will absolutely be back :)

Extremely disappointed in our experience today. The display case was bare, yet the macarons and tiger cake we purchased were all rock hard and very stale. When you’re paying such a premium for a gluten free item, the bare minimum is the product isn’t stale. Every item we bought smelled of refrigerator and not of anything remotely like the product it was advertised as. Whisked is monopolizing on the very small gluten free market and selling people stale items at an unfair markup considering the poor quality.

I am celiacs with a tapioca allergy they were very accommodating and the food was excellent. Beware the dark staircase to the bathroom! We sat outside, it was very nice.

I ate at this restaurant when it was called Riz, and i just went under their new name. The menu is expanded and is all gluten free. It is a treat to be able to order anything and not have to ask about ingredients. As a huge bonus, they had a dessert pastry selection of items I’ve never seen available in gluten free versions. I had a chocolate eclair which was amazing.

Brianna Wilson

I absolutely LOVE this bakery! Truly a celiac heaven - I've been back twice since going with my partner because I was so happy with the experience. I recommend the beef patties, anything by Riz, eclairs, crullers, and my friend loved the samosa (he's not even GF)! Absolutely worth a long browse through their market, freezers and fresh bakes.

Lori Palmer

This place was incredible!!! We looked for a safe gf place for our celiac daughter, and this one was such a treat in that it is all gf. But even more amazing was the healthy, plentiful and incredibly tasty meals we had. We left fully satisfied and it kept us going for a very long time. Amazing service as well. Would highly recommend! Thank you for giving us an amazing meal. We hope for Impact restaurants to come to Vancouver, our home.

Andie Brown

This is truly such a great little place to grab a bite! Service was quick and efficient. They offer gluten free options for their main dishes as well as desserts and everything I had was DELICIOUS. I highly recommend checking out Off The Hook.

Jason Booker

Friendly service. Not many seats. Good food. Highly recommend for anyone looking for gluten free tempura.

Michael March

A fun little Cafe, with plenty of gluten free options. Impromptu seating. There is an upstairs area also.

Jessica Hegarty

Amazing gluten free bread, pizza, donuts, cookies, bagels. Most desserts you could be craving, they have

Sarah Freia

It's wonderful to have access to a safe and delicious gluten free fish & chips in the city. Anglr offers beautifully deep-fried flourless goodness, with multiple side offerings to keep you coming back. I was really impressed with the onion rings and yam fries, and would definitely order them again. The service was very friendly, and I'm looking forward to stopping by again!

Hafsa

Nice atmosphere and service, but inedible gluten free pastries. As someone who has tried the majority of gluten free bakeries in Toronto and countless storebought goods, it’s ludicrous that this bakery is charging $5.93 for a single black forest cupcake. The cupcake had a weird texture, it was like munching on uncooked quinoa in between cake crumb. The frosting was overwhelmingly sweet and not creamy at all. I’ve had plenty of good vegan frosting at other bakeries—this was not it. There was very little cherry filling and it should have been a jam-like consistency, instead I think they just soaked dried cherries in sugar syrup. Not to mention the black forest cupcake is a “seasonal” flavor which is how the bakery justifies an extra $0.75 surcharge. Last I checked, dried cherries are available year-round so I’m confused and you should be too.

Christina Stair

Fantastic service, they were so kind and happy to help us when we visited. Food was amazing, and everything can be prepared gluten free in dedicated appliances so there is no crosscontamination. Would definitely come back if we are in town!

Sara Pezzella

Gluten free pizza and sushi are all phenomenal!

Carolyn Nichol

So impressed to find a place that cares about the ingredients they use for the health and well being of their clients. LOVE that they are gluten free and have vegan options. Take out, or sit down that doesn't set your health back is what Toronto needs more of, and this company has it!

First I had a chocolate chip muffin, came back same day for an oatmeal cookie, came back next day for this incredible Breakfast Bowl. What a gem! I’m plant exclusive and gluten free, and here, I ate like a king. I’m coming back to Toronto this summer, this will be a must stop.

Meag Moar

Visiting Toronto from US. This is our first time at a Burger’s Priest and it will definitely not be the last. We are so thoroughly impressed with how delicious the food was here. We thought it was going to be like any other fast food burger joint, but it was definitely better. We ordered burgers, fries, a hotdog, and a milkshake. All delicious. We have a gluten allergy in the family and the gluten-free bread was so much better than any they’ve had.Nina greeted us with a huge smile and was super accommodating

Ashlee L

Very accommodating for celiac

Bia Revez

Well prepared and tasty food, very friendly and helpful staff. Has a gluten-free menu. I recommend it.

Taylor Luftig

I was just diagnosed with Celiac and looking for a place in Toronto that takes celiac seriously and doesn’t cross contaminate. Normally it’s hard to find places that taste good and do this, but I was so happy to find this spot! The food was unreal and Sandra explained the menu and was such a great server. Highly recommend!

Cristiano Therrien

Tasty gluten-free food, thank you!

Kelly Graham

Amazing food! Gluten free and vegan options! Very wheelchair friendly restaurant and washrooms! I will be back!

Lindsay Kromm

Wanted to leave a review specifically for celiacs: Planta Queen has the best celiac-friendly accommodations I've experienced anywhere in Toronto. Our hostess confirmed upon check-in that someone in the party had celiac disease. Our server confirmed it when introducing herself to the table. The manager came by to inform me everything would be prepared in a separate area, with gloves being changed before making our dishes. And every time a dish was dropped off, they confirmed it to be celiac-safe. I felt so incredibly secure that a dish didn't inadvertently get "missed" by the kitchen, and that there wouldn't be any cross-contamination. Bonus: they have a separate fryer so celiacs can even eat the fried items, AND they were able to modify dishes that weren't marked gluten-free to be gluten free for me. Everything was delicious. Definitely, definitely worth a visit!

Sarah Freia

Impact Kitchen is 100% gluten free, and yet people who aren’t following flourless diets frequent it. The healthy bowls, sandwiches, and toasts are made with whole foods, that are excellent to fuel you for work or a workout. Despite being “good for you”, the offerings are flavourful, and very hearty. I’m particularly fond of the beef brisket sammie and avocado chili toast! It’s a takeout/ casual quick eatery, so don’t expect the quality of a higher end restaurant. Despite this, I’ve always had good service, and the space is quite large. All in all, great for what it is! Happy to see so many good gluten free brands be successful.

Coralie D'Souza

One of the best gluten-free spots in the city! Every single item is delicious.

Tobi McGrory

Gluten free fried chicken is a treat when you can find it. Will for sure be a returning customer. Hot maple sauce is yummy!

Maryam Younis

celiac safe restaurant. healthy but super tasty!

Heidi Tanninen

First time here! What an awesome surprise to find this restaurant while we were out and about shopping! So pleasant to walk in and be greeted with friendly and happy staff! Then, to find out that there was an abundance of tasty gluten free options!!! It could be that their whole menu is gluten free, but I’m not 100%. We had a jerk chicken wrap, sipping broth, hot chocolate, and a cookie. These gluten free choices , as I said earlier are done well and so tasty - great ingredients too! Our server, Venkat, brought our experience up to another level! We will be back to this area just to eat here. Oh ya, we enjoyed the vibe in at Impact. Clean, and pleasant

Brandon Fairlie

Pizza is phenomenal and my wifes gluten free was insanely good.

Lori Lake

Food was phenomenal...good quality, fresh...and so many really great gluten free options.

Dave Smith

Dave's Genuine is comfort food—pure and simple—especially if you grew up eating deli sandwiches, or Kosher favorites like matzoh ball soup. The turkey club is probably my favorite sandwich of all time, and Dave's Genuine makes a killer one. Best of all, it can be made gluten-free—safe for someone who has Celiac disease, like me. In fact, Dave's Genuine makes a real effort to accommodate gluten allergies because the owner's daughter also has Celiac, so he understands the ins and outs of cross contamination. In my most recent order, Dave's even sent me a free batch of fries with a kind note on it, promising they're prepared separately and fried in their own GF fryer. After trying these fries for the first time—crispy and light, by the way—I knew I needed to write this review. The customer service here is truly impeccable, and so is the quality of the food. Pro-tip: Try the smoked meat, it's insanely good.

Alexandre Bujold

Great Place, Gluten free burger Buns are insane !!! Great staff !

Becca Kellner

4.5. Terroni is consistently a reliable and delicious Italian meal. This location has an amazing patio that stays open for as long as possible. We went on a very busy Saturday night and it was good but everything took a long time and the servers were overwhelmed. They’re great at accommodating allergies (they have a seperate menu for dairy and gluten free items) however, they don’t like making amendments to the dishes(nothing new, old Terroni rule). I always LOVE the funghi salad and the pastas (with dairy and no amendments) are great.

Marvin Williams

This place was lovely and had excellent service! Many tasty gluten free options for my celiac girlfriend :) Our favourite was the duck breast!

Ebony Jones

Great atmosphere and food! Lots of gluten free options available and staff were very accomodating. We had the yellow curry with chicken and the ginger stir fry with beef and extra vegetables - great flavours

R Massey

Seeing the unique name of the cafe and the fact that the cakes were vegan made us visit this place. Though there is less seating place inside, there is a large patio at the back. I wonder how this space would be used during the winter season? We ordered a coffee and a chai along with some cakes and we were not disappointed. The chai was excellent and tasted like desert. The cake was dense and tasty. Not overly sweet. I wish it was a gluten-free one. The service, too, was good, and we had fun chatting with the baker+ server. This place seemed popular as quite a few people were dropping in to have their coffee and some savory items. Unfortunately, the cakes we wanted weren't there, hence the selection was less.

Alanah Moulsdale

Not coeliac friendly. They use the same kitchen equipment/utensils for everything. We couldn’t eat here.

Michael Rowsell

A great place to go if you and your friends enjoy sci-fi/fantasy/horror themes. A lot of care and effort has gone into making it a fun place to have drinks and food. The staff and service have always been friendly and accommodating. One of our group is celiac and one is vegan and we have never had an issue.

Girlie Kulp

While looking for a gluten-free breakfast spot in Toronto on Find Me Gluten Free, we came across a highly-rated place and decided to give it a try. I must say, this is the best gluten-free and vegan spot I've tried here, especially for the coffee. I ordered a mocha, and it was the best cafe mocha I've ever had. Made with real dark chocolate, it had that distinct bitter taste, complemented by coconut cream and a splash of maple syrup, along with some added spices—it was amazing. We also had steel-cut oats and a chocolate muffin. The muffin was delicious, not overly sweet, gluten-free, and vegan. If you're ever in Downtown Toronto, check this place out; you'll love it.

My mom is dying in a hospital from colon cancer (whole life as undiagnosed celiac). She's barely eating anything and in palliative care. She asked me if I could get her some sancocho (very popular Latin soup). I drove to Colombian Street Food as they're 100% GF place. I ordered one soup for me and one to go for her. The Mexican girl in the front asked me how my day was going. I explained that I just needed a nice soup for Mom in hopes that she would eat something. She's lost a lot of weight and is all bones due to the cancer. She asked me if she could chew and I said not really. She asked me if she could cut up the soup meat and veggies in tiny pieces so she could eat it. How thoughtful!!! When I got to the hospital and I opened the bag, she had packed up very nicely and even written "Mamita", Mommy in Spanish ❤️❤️ As you look to support restaurants, think of the mom and pop shops that work tirelessly to support people with allergies and medical issues and so thoughtful!

Stevie

Love this place! So many gluten free/vegan/vegetarian options that are actually delicious! The atmosphere is also very cute and the rooftop patio is lovely! Expect to come by when you have some time to relax and enjoy the experience as the food doesn’t always come out super fast but it’s been delicious every time Our server, Imaan was also absolutely lovely!

Lisa Puersten

This place has a fabulous vibe right from the get go! Decor is rustic & eclectic, & there's much to catch your eye....like trees! The menu has pasta (no gf) & pizza (gf/vegan options), accompanied by lots of drink selections. We ordered 1 gluten free pizza, 1 gluten/dairy free pizza, & one regular pizza. I have a load of allergies & the server - Ceci - was very accommodating & knowledgeable about what the kitchen could do for me. We were super impressed! All the pizzas were amazing (like the best gf pizza in the city imho) & my husband polished off the whole regular pizza himself it was so good! We can't say enough about Ceci (& Mark) as they really took good care of us! We highly recommend Bar Poet, especially for the pizza & beer special!! Can't wait to go again! PS - we were able to get a photo with no one in it bc we came in right at open on a mega snowy Monday!

Alice Leung

Tabule has always been my favourite restaurant, my top choice for lunch in the neighborhood. The menu offers a variety of healthy options including gluten free items. The staff here are all pleasant and helpful especially Mina. I look forward to see her there every time.

Michaela Storoschuk

Had a work night dinner with some out of country guests and oh my goodness did this restaurant went above and beyond. Attentive service, fully could accommodate the menu for each dietary allergy (dairy and gluten), and had an amazing variety of options from land sea and farm. A bit of a spend but it was worth it for a lovely night out, and the ambiance was divine.

Jacqueline Mackay

The perfect spot for a unique and truly joyful treat! Our server Mike was super helpful, and the gelato/wine flight was an absolute delight! The gelato was all gluten and dairy free and the wine pairings were scrumptious! I highly recommend :)

Michael Van

Came here with a couple friends to try out because of their gluten free and vegan options. Prices were extremely fair (you can a full meal for around 10 dollars). Worth stopping in if you like dosas!

Vlad Nabok

Great coffee ☕️ shop in the Beaches area. Lots of gluten-free and low carbon snacks. Really enjoyed their espresso. The location is great too. Nice outside bench for people watching in the Beach. Highly recommend and would definitely comeback when I am in the area.

Lorna Rowe

Konscious Kitchen is a gem! As someone who enjoys both healthy and delicious treats, I’m always impressed by their paleo, gluten-free, and vegan desserts. Their blueberry muffin is hands-down my favorite—it’s moist, flavorful, and you’d never guess it’s free of gluten or refined sugar. The quality of the ingredients really shines through in every bite, and it’s clear the team puts a lot of care into everything they bake. Whether you’re looking for a guilt-free indulgence or have specific dietary needs, Konscious Kitchen has a delicious treat for everyone!
