Love this place! Gluten free tacos that are the best in town! 5/5 for food.
5/5 for service. Waitress was very attentive and friendly.
The only reason I rated atmosphere a 4/5 is because it was a little loud, but most restaurants are.
Enjoy a stylish atmosphere with unique decor and a cozy vibe, perfect for intimate dinners and special occasions in a city-like setting.

Forno is a beautiful place to eat in Red Deer. The food is great and the service is friendly and knowledgeable. My dad is not very mobile and tries to eat gluten free. The server we had was very good at dealing with him and helping with suggestions for food etc

Such a comforting place downtown! Staff are always friendly and make great recommendations, the lunch specials are always new, delicious and different! (They also have gluten aware breads and baking) Everything is made with love. The type of place that adds soul and character to the city. Love walking here for lunch and enjoying the energy of everyone around.
They are also very kind to the houseless folks that come for coffee which I really love to see! Great job to city roast!
Expect a unique breakfast experience with impressive portion sizes and a relaxed vibe, perfect for families and those looking for simple, quality meals.

Found this restaurant location recommended through the Find Me Gluten Free app and decided to give them a try. They had a lot of celiac safe gluten free options, and the waitress was well informed on ingredients and cooking protocols the kitchen used to prevent CC. Portions were huge, prices were reasonable, and food was both tasty & safe.

Burgers are great here! And I really like how they have gluten free buns that aren’t totally dry and gross. I was very disappointed when I ordered the garden salad however. I didn’t know there would be diced up white onions. I was not listed on the ingredients on the Uber eats app. Very difficult to pick out when they are diced that much. I wished the croutons came on the side as well, but I shouldn’t have assumed that they did. Anyway I still like this restaurant and it’s my go-to for burgers, but I don’t think I’ll be ordering a salad from here again
Enjoy a vibrant spot with a wide range of options, new pizzas to explore, and an affordable vibe perfect for families.

My food only cost me 35$, i found it very affordable for the families. Now i saw they added bunch of new pizzas . I would love to try those as well. I had awesome experience.

I ordered 6 chocolate confetti cupcakes for my birthday as my husband and I are currently trying a restricted diet for IBS, no dairy, no gluten! I thought my birthday would be filled with tasteless, hard gluten/dairy free cake :( but luckily I found in the mix cupcakes! They were SO delightful and tasted just like real cupcakes! I highly recommend! All my friends were inpressed they were gluten/dairy free because they tasted so good!
Experience a lively vibe with unique dishes and a solid drink selection, making it a go-to spot for casual hangs and indulgent treats.

Delicious food, great atmosphere, very attentive service even when it was busy. Kid friendly and gluten friendly options.
Everything we had was super tasty with unique dishes. Yam fries were done to perfection. The brownie was a great size to share and very decadent. Many different options for drinks and the prices were pretty good. The Social Lager is cheap and doesn't taste cheap.
Definitely going back again and again.
With an impressive selection of creative dishes and a vibrant atmosphere, this spot promises a delightful dining experience worth the visit.

Finding a place that does a good gluten-free breakfast beyond standard bacon and eggs can be a challenge.
Hash Breakfast Eatery met that challenge with a large gluten-free menu that included their bowls and bennys.
The service was friendly and prompt. The restaurant was clean, as was the washroom.
This place is definitely worth the try if you have gluten allergies.
Expect a unique vibe here with fresh offerings and a solid reputation among loyal fans, making it a go-to spot for many.

We have been eating here for 10 years, and we can't wait to return. Food is fresh, service is prompt, owner is friendly and ready to give top customer service. My son needs a gluten-free menu, and always chooses Rue On first.
Best peanut sauce any where!

Let's start off by stating that my fiance is celiac; extremely allergic to gluten. Five Guys, not just this location, has always been phenomenal in catering to GF orders. They obviously take pride and great care in preparing excellent quality meals for anyone who comes in. We have been to many restaurants and fast food joints that claim to be able to make gluten free food and oftentimes we leave with my fiance in great pain because of cross contamination. Not so here. We've been to this Five Guys a few times now and have never had an issue with the food. It's always delicious, hot, and ready promptly. The peanuts are an added bonus!
With an inviting atmosphere and a diverse menu, this spot is perfect for a flavorful experience that keeps fans coming back for more.

Enjoyed a large group meal at One Eleven and had an awesome stir fry. I have to eat gluten free due to celiac disease and they have always been careful and knowledgeable about gluten concerns.
Expect a high-priced spot with notable buckwheat pancakes and fresh fruit, but be ready for some delays in service.

As someone with dairy and gluten sensitivities, its hard to eat out anywhere. The menu clearly labels gluten items but not dairy, so i had to talk to our server about it. She verified anything that she couldnt answer, and i managed to get a meal that was delicious and safe.
Food was fast, hot, and delicious, and staff was friendly.
Chill vibe with an awesome patio and a standout atmosphere that’ll make your dining experience memorable.

Wow. One of the best dining experiences I've had in awhile. Our waitress was amazing. I really wish I'd gotten her name to leave in this review. The restaurant was extremely clean and such a good atmosphere.
I got the vegetable fajitas and they were amazing. The guacamole is the best I've ever had. They were also able to accommodate me being celiac!
I highly recommend this place. Wow, just wow. Everything was just so good.
A hidden gem on Gasoline Alley, known for its amazing portions, careful preparation, and a cozy vibe that keeps customers coming back.

I’ve never been so impressed with the precaution taken to make sure my food could be as celiac safe as possible! They swapped gloves twice while making my meal and checked with me to see if I was okay with using a shared deep fryer. I was not so didn’t get to try the potato’s unfortunately. But 10/10 it did not gluten me after eating!

Incredible pizza. Gluten free option impressed the wife. Lots of toppings, but they put toppings under cheese. I don't care, wife prefers otherwise. Definitely try out the Donair bites!
Charming spot with quick service and tasty dishes, though options are limited—perfect for a cozy meal on a rainy day!

On a rainy day such as today I was hoping for a big comfort bowl of pasta however no gluten free noodles. Most other restaurants have this very basic substitution and most sauces made with flour can be made with corn starch. Just a suggestion!! Had the steak today instead and was amazing nonetheless. Friendly staff and didn’t wait long for lunch!! Still a win! Sad day to be a celiac pasta lover..
This local gem is loved for its community spirit, warm atmosphere, and fantastic deals like half-off house wine.

Alot of vegan options. But barley any gluten free and vegetarian options together.. I ended out getting a vegetarian pizza with the gf crust and it honestly wasn't good at all. Don't recommend coming here if you have food allergies. Very disappointing...
It used to be my favorite but the frequency of my visits have rapidly decreased over the past 6-12 months.
It's been taking 10-20 minutes after being seated just to get to order a drink. Another 5-10 minutes pass as we wait for drinks even if they are just water. Solution, at least have the hostess bring water for everybody.
The gluten free buns are crap. They used to be good. There are also less gluten free options. Solution, if you're going to limit the previous gluten free options at least purchase good gluten free buns.
They take too long to show up with the bill. Waiting to be able to pay so you can continue your day is disappointing. Solution, don't have the majority of the staff cleaning up the buffet while people are waiting for drinks, food and to pay.
I used to want to go here once a week and now it's past the middle of March and I've only been once this year. Please improve the gluten free options and the service. It's friendly, it's just remarkably slow. Slow enough to ruin the experience.
Went to pizza 73 downtown red deer. I have a gluten allergy and they really respected that. They followed procedures and washed they're hands. Billy at the front counter was so nice and kind. Billy honestly made my day. Such a nice person and gave me a gluten free brownie which honestly makes my week since my birthday was yesterday. :) should make employee of the month.
Kind of upset that I ordered sushi with tobiko and then there was no tobiko. I would have ordered different rolls if the tobiko wasn’t gluten free. I feel a little ripped off as I was paying for tobiko and there was none. It was kind of pricey for what I got as well. I called them back and told them there was no tobiko and then they tell me it’s not gf. I literally told her I’ll have whatever as long as there is tobiko on it. I probably wouldn’t have ordered tonight if there wasn’t tobiko. Good to know they don’t have gluten free tobiko here
Subway delivers consistent quality and menus. I know the item I'm expecting will be satisfactory. The GLUTEN FREE sandwich roll was incredibly soft and delicious. If you weren't told it was GF you couldn't tell.
Emily added a real touch of happiness to my day with her upbeat personality and suggestions to add to my meal.
Facilities are clean and well serviced. Subway, always a pleasant fast affordable go to for any meal of the day and nourishing. Just cut back on cheese and sauces to keep things balanced. A nice high antioxidant green tea is on the menu. Voila ..who says eating on the run can't be diet friendly! Subway offers all ends of spectrum hungry man to light salad people. Thanks again Emily. Hope you get that raise your smile says your worth!
I am celiac, and the careful preparation was most appreciated. The gentleman running the restaurant today also took time to explain their menu. Thank you bar burrito!
Experience a unique spot with a clear menu that makes exploring tasty options super easy and convenient for everyone!

My wife is gluten allergic, and it's really hard to find something for her. This place just blew our minds, the food and service was awesome, we love the atmosphere there, it's definitely worth to go there, we are very amazed
Great place! 1920's speakeasy vibes met with a modern twist. Nearly everything on the menu is dairy and gluten free. Many vegan options as well. Only 4 stars because I think the portions could be bigger. BUT - unless it's an all you can eat buffet, there aren't many places that I don't feel the same way. Absolutely worth stopping in!
Absolutely delicious food with plenty of gluten free, vegetarian or vegan options. The service is always amazing and the food is incredible quality. I recommend dining in- take out would be a shame because the service is so good.
Delicious! Very thorough with my gluten allergy.
Strange that each meal was brought individually though, like mine, then 5 mins later my wife, 5 mins again for my daughter, then the kids meal.
At least I was done eating my dish while it was hot before I had to feed my boy!
Really good burgers. They have gluten free options which is to remove the bun and wrap the burger in lettuce. They are very careful in making gluten free and my celiac wife has had no reactions from gluten contamination yet. Love the burgers even without the bun. Would definitely recommend if you are in need of a yummy and surprisingly large and filling burger.
A solid 10! Super fresh, delicate flavours and NO MSG. A good amount of protein with generous serving sizes. Easily the best place in town. A lil Thai basil would go a long way. Gluten free as well.
Best gluten free pizza I have ever had! I am celiac and I have never felt sick after having their pizza. Great prices for gluten free as well, and so delicious. Their promotions are outstanding. 5/5 no doubt!!!!
