Top 21 Gluten-Free Dinner Spots to Delight in Essendon

Kati Keksi

I've bought from Bowls Baby a few times now (in Essendon and CBD) and I always leave full and happy. The menu is 100% gluten free, which works well as none of their menu items need gluten. All the meal bowls are well balanced with protein, carbs and good fats. My go to is the classic Mr G, which has chicken, halloumi and hummus. It can sometimes get a bit salty so I pick out the olives. This visit we also picked up a chilli beef noodle bowl which was delicious. It uses pulled beef which is super tender and the sauce was really flavourful. I tried a shake too, double PB which was excellent. I was worried it would be sickly sweet but it's actually quite neutral. Definitely worth a visit for coeliacs and gluten free folk, as well as everyone else.

Best Gluten Free Pizza Ever! (well at least So Far, and I've had a few) - Only ordered home delivery from them so don't know about service & atmosphere but for a gluten free pizza home delivered to be this good they're obviously doing something right. Favourite Pizza: Gluten free Aussie with salami & extra cheese.

Always drove past there but never stopped, one night stopped in for dinner with family. What a great experience! Food and drinks were amazing, staff were friendly and prompt, a awesome night all round. I am also a gluten intolerant and found no issue eating here! The staff were excellent in assisting me with my allergies. I suggest this restaurant to ANYONE! 5 star guys!!!

Wonderful pizza and excellent at gluten-free as my daughter is coeliac 😁

Beautiful food, wonderful atmosphere and mesmerising decor. We tried the bolognese gnocchi and loved it so much. I opted for the GLUTEN FREE penne which we both tasted and was so good we couldn’t tell it was gluten free! Hot tip: visit the bathroom and press the red button!

My gluten-free partner had the Paleo bowl, which she said was very nice. I had the Chili Scramble, which was also very good. Friendly service, good coffee. Highly recommended.

The atmosphere of the pizza bar was delightful and very welcoming. The gluten free pizza base was cooked to perfection. Would definitely come again. 10/10

We have been coming here for the past few years, the food is really outstanding, staff is amazing and overall experience is really fantastic. We have been to some high end cafes as well but we find ourselves coming back to Benny& Me , its just warm, friendly, reasonably priced and just a family atmosphere. Thanks Ben and the staff for looking after us as ever with a big smile. Some great gluten free options too.

Sharon Brennan

Good food. Staff are happy to alter dishes to make them gluten free eg leave the croutons out of caesar salad. Friendly service.

I searched on the coeliac Melb FB page of places near the airport and this came up as a winner… it didn’t disappoint. They were very gluten free aware and most menu items could be accommodated. Food was delicious! Service was excellent. The 2 girls serving were fantastic and should be acknowledged. Thank you for a lovely family dinner gluten free safe 😁

Absolutely incredible traditional style pizzas. Generous and high quality ingredients used combined with the best traditional pizza bases I have probably ever tasted. The dough was the perfect thickness to hold its shape, and was crispy on the outside whilst still being super fluffy and soft on the inside. The highlight for me was the beautiful Capricosa calzone, which I recommend everyone to try. I also tried a gluten free base pizza (as my partner is gluten intolerant) and that was also very nice as a gluten free option. I’ve tried and tested many pizza places within the maribyrnong city area and dolce gusto cucina would have to be my favourite and I highly recommend everyone to try it themselves.

Just wanted to say I was the fussiest most annoying customer today with all my requests for gluten free and caffein free and everyone was so lovely and accomodating and everyone is so awesome that works there. Made me feel super comfy and happy and just a great lovely little team of people :) Thanks guys.

Kind and calm service, even on a busy Friday night. The gluten-free burger buns and seasoning were decent. The vegan option was also satisfying.

Jeena Maharjan

Always a pleasure! Fantastic burgers, fries on point and gluten free option available. We didn't wait long for our meal and really enjoyed our food, as always! Recommended👍🏼

David Morgan

Great food including gluten free options and a keto bun bread option. I hope the other stores do the same.

I never thought I'd find a "good Dominos" but it's this one, this is the good Dominos. Really good about taking Gluten Free seriously too.

Brilliant Thai food at a good price. Able to cater confidently to allergies like gluten and nuts. We were very happy with our meals.

Risaban Kumarahuru

Turkish cuisine with gracious hosting and lovely service. The saganaki was really lovely and the meat platter was some of the best grilled meats I have had! The rockalin fish was not the best. But the hosting and service was amazing! Complimentary bread and accomodating of gluten free and dairy free options for guests

Evren Altan

Amazing gluten free pizza close to home! Highly recommend if you are gluten free & if you aren’t then you are best to go either way! Very crispy and quick service.

We went for a late valentines date night and it was better than I ever could’ve expected. I am huge on good customer service and for the owner to be so hands on and friendly was the cherry on top. The food was amazing, gluten intolerant and dietary restrictions were considered. The quality of the food was incredible too. Genuinely such a beautiful place and the energy given to us by the staff was very appreciated. It was actually quite romantic too, candles lit, cosy as hell and ambiance was just right. I actually said to my partner “every bite is an experience” I’ll leave it at that.
