Great Brunch. The Eggs Benedict was first class and gluten free options available. I had the salmon option. The Vietnamese Ice Coffee was excellent and the barista, Summa knows coffee. Unfortunately it closes at 2 pm, 1pm Queensland time.

What a fish and chip shop should be. Best chips around. The only thing that would improve this place is a gluten free batter option for fish etc but I'm grateful for the gluten free chips.

Brilliant. Apart from bread rolls, the Menu is entirely gluten free with gluten free bread option. Apparently the chefs wife is coeliac hence the catering to gluten free. Food was impeccable. Service wonderful. Bonus was the home made waffles which were just elite. Absolutely suitable for coeliac.

Fantastic Indian food! Well catered for gluten-free and dairy-free options (although unfortunately all the chicken is tandoori/yoghurt). Vindaloo is very good and hot. Dhal was also very good. Restaurant service was very good, and delivery option is also very good - food arrived hot (to Lennox Head) and driver was very polite. Very nice experience - recommend!

I love this place!! It is my favourite Ballina restaurant for both dine in and takeaway. Their food is really tasty and reasonably priced. The place has a really comfy atmosphere and the service is friendly. I have dietary requirements (no egg, dairy, gluten) and there are a few options there. My personal favourite is the chicken curry.

Very helpful, friendly, efficient staff. The large Super Special came with ample tasty fresh toppings, with small prawns plentiful. The thin base had a very subtle sauce that added deliciousness without being " in your face." Small parts of the mostly crisp base became a little soggy due to the amount of fresh toppings, but this wasn't unpleasant because the flavours had soaked in. Gluten-free bases are available, and ALL ingredients are also. Care is taken when making GF to ensure there's no cross contamination. There's 3 sizes. With Large being 12" and in the middle. The Super Special was $33 which is at the top end, but this isn't your "small black blocks with white dots " franchise pizza either. Prices vary with each pizza and toppings can be added or left off, so you can design your own if you wish. It's definitely my choice of pizza in Ballina.
