Friendly staff (helped with our food allergies) and good seafood at reasonable prices. There's an outdoor eating area as well as a small beach. If you have US $, they will accept it at the same price (on par) as the Canadian dollar, which is nice in a pinch, but also takes a hit on the exchange rate. Gluten free rolls are available.

So good I forgot to take pictures before eating it lol Amazing gluten free choices that most importantly have not made me sick the two times I've been here and they taste great. I've tried the beef and broccoli (first time finding it GF and my favorite dish so far) and the beef pho (perfect for the cold weather) Also got the Thai curry to try, smells great! Highly recommended! Great staff also!

We happened upon this place as we were on the hunt for something to eat for my hubby who is gluten free, so we stopped in and ordered a GF pizza for him and wings and a Detroit style pizza for the rest of our party. First bite of our pizza transported me back to last month when I was in Chicago devouring a deep dish pizza at one of the popular pizza joints. Simply amazing, the pizza would have me coming back for more and since we are visiting from Calgary I’ll be sure to hit this place up again before we leave! Our waiter was great as well, super attentive and even held back on the GF pizza he felt was overcooked but appeased my husband with a complimentary beer to apologize for the wait for a newly cooked one. The interior is beautiful- loved the integration of the original architectural features with a modern twist and hunter green palette. This place is a pure gem in the Saint John uptown area!

Atmosphere was very nice, lights were perfectly dimmed and the overall feel was very welcoming. We went there for dinner but couldn't get a seat, you need to make reservations, they fill up quickly. So we opted for gluten free pizza take out. Their GF carbonara pizza is out of this world!

Me and my two best friends went while spending the day uptown. The owner (I think) was incredibly accommodating of my gluten free diet, and we had a lovely chat. I didn't mind that he wasn't the most knowledgeable, because whenever me or my friend raised a concern he was hugely respectful and found out before proceeding. He was even very chill when I had to change my order to accommodate! Overall we were all very pleased! I had the Toro Bowl, one friend had the nachos (the chips are colorful which we found fun!), and the other had a burrito... none of us were disappointed! As long as whoever serves you is willing to communicate, this place is great for gluten free!

I just purchased take-out at this location. I order the padh thai which is one of the best gluten free options in this area. I was driving home and two deer ran out in front of my vehicle. I jammed on the breaks and my take-out order went flying through the air off of my passenger seat and into the back of the passenger footwell. I was pleased to discover, after I had arrived home, that the contents were perfectly intact and that the lid was still very secure. Good job! Keep putting those lids on tight, you never know in Millidgeville!

This is the BEST Chinese food I have found while living in Saint John. Friendly staff and AMAZING food with fairly competitive prices compared to other places in the area. Highly recommend. I've had to order food for a larger group and they easily facilitated for some gluten-free options for us and gave special care to packaging and keeping them separate and marked for us. One of the employees had just finished her shift and even offered to help us bring all the food next door for us. I was blown away.

Unfortunately for the first time the food was disappointing. It was burger week and we had the Gluten burger. No idea what the chef was attempting. It was a mishmash of, well I am not sure. Took this as we were advised that the other burger was way too spicy. Will be back but we will stick to the regular menu Service as usual was on point
