My boyfriend is celiac and we have heard many great things about this place being gluten friendly so we gave it a try. Our server was kind of rude, like she never smiled and looked like something was annoying her and that she didn’t want to be there (it was a busy Friday night which is understandable, but still, I felt a little uncomfortable with her). My boyfriend got a GF pizza and I got a regular one. They tasted really good and mine was so big that I brought the other half home with me (the GF pizza is significantly smaller than the regular one FYI, we were hoping that it would be at least around the same size as a regular one considering how they present themselves as GF. Not a huge problem but it still seems unfair). The next morning, my boyfriend was feeling symptoms as if he had gluten. He had definitely ordered the GF crust, so we are thinking it is maybe the pizza sauce or the meat contains gluten. Perhaps it is a misunderstanding on our part as he didn’t specify to the server that he is celiac, but you would think that if something is made GF, all the ingredients would be GF. Anyways we won’t be going back there which is a shame because there are lots of GF options on the menu that you can’t really find anywhere else around.

Our server, Megan, was super helpful with Celiac disease accommodations, especially with double checking with the kitchen to make sure everything was safe for me. Also when we left we realized we forgot our extra fries in a to go container at the table, and came back 3 minutes later to them being gone. We were ready to accept our reality, but Megan came over and made us a new box right away. Thank you to Megan and the staff at this location for an amazing meal!

I LOVE Scoops! I’m a Celiac (must eat gluten-free medically) and go to Niagara probably twice a year if not more and I always make this a stop! Sometimes going two days for breakfast! They’re accommodations and understand of cross contamination and it’s one of the only places I can have breakfast safely! But they’re also super friendly we’ve enjoyed every time my husband and I have went and really can’t believe I’ve waited this long to review them! I have def told people on various GF sites to go there for breakfast! YUM! I’d give you 10 stars if I could 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 - we were there this past Monday the 20th and although quieter than a weekend day our waitress was delightful and even when I used the washroom prior to leaving the gentlemen (staff?) sitting at the employee table was super nice and wished us a great day! I hope they’re there forever!

Food was excellent, there was a bit of a wait but it was worth it. The staff was super helpful and the waitress even took a picture of the ingredients list on the ice cream to help my sister make sure it didn't contain any of her allergens. They have gluten free options for pizza and pasta which is good. It was super busy on a Saturday night but the way it's divided into rooms keeps the noise manageable so you can still have a conversation without shouting

We were traveling through on route 401 and we were all hungry. We searched on ChatGPT for a place that would cater to gluten sensitive needs and it suggested Monoll’s. When we walked in we were greeted by welcoming and helpful and kind staff. They informed us of what they offer and suggested an amazing park on the water with picnic tables down the street we could eat at. The fish was perfectly cooked and the fries were delicious. The batter was a little thick but it was still very tasty. The price for the amount of food our family of 5 ate was outstanding.

We'd spent 4 days in Niagara, staying centrally, searching for good value, tasty food without success (& getting ripped off for mediocre mulch). . until we found Moksha! Jasmine was really friendly and professional, with good knowledge of gluten free options. . And the food was excellent. Best meal we had in Niagara by a long chalk, and up to the standards of the CN tower restaurant. Would highly recommend. Also great value, 3 of us with drinks (including beer): mains, poppadoms, rice and nans and (discretionary) 20%tip, $80. Wish we'd found you sooner! Many thanks 🙏 N.B. It's difficult to understand some of the negative reviews based on our experience and perhaps makes one question their integrity / motive.

Susan Burton

The best gluten free pizza EVER. When I asked, they took the time to talk about ingredients and explain how buckwheat and the super hot oven give the crust some flavour and lift. Wow!

Lesa Rice

Fantastic service very celiac friendly!!! Waitress was amazing.

Jennifer Mills

Excellent Gluten Free crepe!!! Had wonderful guidance from Payton on what would be the tastiest GF crepe!

Stephanie Reisz

Excellent gluten free pizza. Excellent normal pizza too!!

J G

This little place was absolutely amazing! Everything couldnt have been more perfect!!! The gluten free options were soooo good and the staff was super knowledgeable about it! The view of the water was just awesome. You guys really turned our weekend around!!! Didnt take a photo of the pizza we ordered as it looked so good i couldnt wait another second to eat it.

Catherine Colley

My partner and I loved the food and the service. The location of our table felt like it was very busy and it was very hard to hear inside. I wish the pizza could be made gluten free, but I understand it could be an issue with reducing cross contamination in the small kitchen.

Judy Caterini

Great service & fantastic gluten free pizza.

Singh Family

I came in looking for gluten free and vegetarian options. While the options are slightly limited, the food was AMAZING. Mile the server was so kind to customize our order so that I had a delicious meal. He knew exactly when to check in on us and when to give us some time to enjoy our food. It was such a beautiful experience. The cocktails were also amazing! The options and the taste made me feel like I was in Mexico again.

Gord Lovell

My wife and I visited this restaurant while on vacation because it was recommended as being a great place for both vegan and gluten free options. Excited that we found a place to eat we ordered a variety of items off the menu having a conversation with the server about us both being vegan and my wife also having a gluten sensitivity. When the food came we were trusting and just dug in. Midway through I started to not feel great and questioned the poutine with the server as I had never seen a vegan cheese with such great pull before. She took a look and said it didn't even look like the vegan gravy. She took the dish to the kitchen and came back apologizing because it was indeed not vegan. Our day, ruined. The planned hike in the Niagara Glen was interrupted by stomach pains and a sudden need poop due to being lactose intolerant and being fed cheese. At least they didn't make us pay for the GF wrap with Vegan Poutine that was neither GF nor Vegan. My star rating is reflective of what probably would have been our experience had this mistake not happened. Everyone is entitled to a bad day.

Sam

Fantastic brunch spot! We came as a group of four, including two elderly guests, and found street parking right out front around 10 AM. We were warmly welcomed and well looked after by our lovely and funny server, Lisa - special shout-out! The menu was extensive with great drink options and something for everyone, including gluten-free choices. We all ordered different variations of eggs Benedict and were impressed. The house coffee was great, and I appreciated having almond milk on the side. Relaxed atmosphere but somewhat loud at times, very comfortable seating, house made hot sauce was a nice touch, delicious food, and kind service - we’ll definitely be back!

Gluten Free food is amazing! Both fresh and frozen meals !

KIRTI BHANDARI

Fresh and tasty food I fully recommended Royal dosa hut if you like vegetarian food or vegan or gluten free

Cheyenne VanNest

The food was fine, nothing crazy. They did upcharge for a gluten free bun which isn't a huge issue but a lot of restaurants in the area don't, so it's something to keep in mind. Service was fine but he stood over our shoulders while paying so that was kind of awkward. View is great from the patio!

Hayley Volk

We called ahead and asked about gluten free options and our server Emily answered everything perfectly! When we got to our table, she (Emily) was so personable, funny and kind and made the experience so much better. She personally confirmed everything with the kitchen to ensure our meal was gluten free. The table next to us was giving her a hard time for no reason, so Emily, you rock! We will definitely be coming back here because of your stellar service. Give this girl a raise y’all!

Steven Fry

Gluten-free and a concerned waitress. Felt comfortable and no sides affects.

Kim Peeters

Gluten free pizza was great!!

Dan Fredal

I give it 4 stars only because of the wonderful view of the falls. But you only get the best views at the tables on the lower level. The menu is very limited for people who are gluten free like myself. My wife and I had the Roasted Ontario chicken Supreme and it was dry with a sauce that did not have a lot of flavor.

Jacob ondriska

Our waitress Felicia was soooo helpful and kind . I have celiac disease and am very cautious about eating out at restaurants that aren’t fully gluten free . But she was so great at letting me know what on the menu was and was not gluten free . They have many options . All of the beef options are gluten free also the cheese balls we’re soo good . Anyways I’m thrilled with the service .

Sarah S

Came to Kelly's eats for a quick bite to eat. The turkey chilli was out of this world So freah with a little zing. They make gluten free cornbread to go with it. *Chefs kiss* The smoothies were cold and tasty as well. We put Serena to the test asking lots of questions about ingredients she was friendly, patient and very knowledgeable. I think the best part about the meal was the peanut butter protein balls. Never in my life did I think I would come to the gym for dinner. It did not disappoint. Will return!

Nikita Turner

Very good pizza. Gluten free crust also good

Leon Pilgrim

We went here with a group of 8, walked in around 9pm on a Friday. The servers were very friendly, the pizzas were fast and good quality, including one that was gluten free. We had a great time and the price was good as well.

TRUST ME….GO NEXT DOOR TO THE OTHER BURGER JOINT!!! Food was OK but ordering experience sucked. They forgot to charge for a gluten bun and made it a point to charge me for it like 5 min after we ordered. It was only a few $ so it wasn’t a huge deal….just greedy considering it was their fault and I had to break a $20 for it. New girl working up front taking orders who was VERY slow and would not speak loudly or clearly. First job maybe, I don’t know. NOT HER FAULT THO!!! The place should have had someone helping/training her instead of leaving her on her own to struggle. Then when she made a mistake on the order, come back 5 min later and demand the customer pay another few dollars for their poor training!!!!! The place was completely empty for most the visit, I can see why. There is a burger place next door you’re MUCH better off going to. Won’t go back….

My husband and I had the pleasure of eating here this past weekend (dinner and brunch the following day). He is vegan, while I am gluten and dairy free (due to health issues). The food was impeccable, as was the service. As a recovering picky eater, I thought I would struggle a bit, however, I didn't in the slightest! It was one of the best meals I have ever had anywhere (vegan or not vegan alike). The walnut tacos and Caesar salad was amazing as was the English breakfast. We live an hour and a half away, however, will make a day out of going to Sarnia just to go here!

Heather MacPhail

Food was well made but not so warm when served. No gluten free option except for bread! No information about the sauces. Are they gluten free? The service was good. Tina our server was pleasant and very good. The atmosphere was pleasant and I could actually hear my friend brought me to Schnitzels, being new to Cornwall.

Beverley Shepherd

Great find in the Sault. An extensive menu, be that as it may, everything was fresh! I had the pickerel with gluten-free penne in a pesto sauce, and my daughter had the spinach and feta pizza on gluten-free crust. Really generous portions. Loved it, Would come back again if passing this way. Our server Amanda was great, the house was busy but she found the time to acknowledge us and check in throughout the meal.

Adi Fairbank

Nice little thai place with gluten free options.

Great service, price on point (in this economy, great price still) and hearty food. But, it's not gluten free. I'm saying this for wheat allergist who are reading other reviews thinking they have entirely gluten free dish option. Just based on my reaction and knowledge of East Asian cuisine (like the oyster sauce and fish sauce ahem-has wheat as their base ingredients. You can ask them to take it out but making it taste like thai food after that...that's gonna be hard. Now it can be a marginal amount that it may be gluten-free but it may also not be) and I don't think they were using tamori sauce in replacement of soy sauce. So a warning there to be careful on this and not claim it's gluten free for people with wheat allergy who might die based on the amount of wheat they consume. I debated whether or not to give literally 1 star or 5 star over this (since nobody ever reads 3-4 stars) but to support local business in current time, I decided 5 stars. I could be wrong in terms of how they cook it but, anyway, wheat allergist and gluten sensitive, be warned.

Jacob Renaud

I love this place! Staff are always smiling and friendly. I am there often and the food has never let us down, nor has the service. I usually go in with my family and they are happy to see our little guy and he likes the quesadillas! Tried the new B box today and it was great. The pulled pork is my favourite! It is also a good place for someone with celiac or gluten intolerance, lots of options are available.

Pam Bradley

This is the first restaurant I have been to in 4 years, I have celiac disease, I was very nervous about cross contamination and getting sick, the French that's was delicious, and perfectly fine, I will definitely be back. Thank you for giving me a great place to eat!!!!!

By far the best Gluten Free pizza I've ever had, and I've been on this diet all my life (54). The staff is very friendly and attentive! Five Stars.

Great pizza really enjoyed Gluten free

My wife Christine and I went there yesterday for our 24th anniversary, and were warmly greeted, and seated promptly by the friendly hostess for the evening. I have a bad memory with names, and apologize for that, but our hostess was very kind and humorous as well, with my request to check the alcohol percentage on the red wines, because of a health issue, I cannot have more than one glass. My wife is gluten and lactose intolerant, and our hostess made sure these concerns were addressed properly, and all the while, all with humorous reparty. Anyways, my wife had the small beet salad, and maple glazed salmon, and I had a small Italian salad with shrimp, and the seafood linguini as my main course. We had a surprise, free, sticky toffee pudding for dessert, which was the cherry topping for our evening out. Excellent food, and impeccable friendly service. Worth every penny and we will definitely be back.☺️👍

Katy catered an event at our office and did an amazing job. We decided on a "high tea" theme and she came up with some delicious options that fit our theme. She managed to source some trays and arranged the food beautifully, we just had to show her where to set up. The pricing was quite reasonable. We split the catering cost among the attendees and it turned out to be about 20$ per person. We still had some food left over after we were done. While she is known for her vegetarian and vegan options, Katy was able to include items with meat in them, so don't hesitate if you want a great caterer that can still provide meat options! There were also some vegan and gluten free offerings, so if you do have dietary restrictions, she can absolutely accommodate you.

Even in the coldest winter it tastes like spring with every bite. There's presently renovations ongoing in the large section which we are excited for for our family to view and partake in when it is open in the large section. For now there's a small section open that can still seat plenty and it is so so so very pretty within. You will LOVE it and possibly gasp as we did! I don't take pictures, but imagine cherry blossom tree theme and cherry blossom pink colour with sword grey. It's a beautiful mixture of colours for just you alone, you on a date, an outing with a coworker for lunch or dinner, or a special or regular outing. The food is AMAZING. If you have gluten sensitivities there's a menu for you. If you're not into meat there's food for you. If you're a meat eater there's a plate too just for you. I have never had such a burst of flavours in my mouth or be thinking about a restaurant's food for days in anticipation to taste it again until now. It is a gem!! The food is filling and tastes fresh and looks fresh and the presentation is gorgeous. I could go on. Each recipe has been personally crafted with care and deliberation to ingredients and flavours by the owner and her staff is highly skilled in recreating the taught recipes (We were nosy and asked lol, we were becoming obsessed with the food). You will not taste identical similar dishes anywhere else, at least we have yet to. The service of the staff is always with a smile and pleasant and the owner and servers make great effort to know your name and refer to you by it for a more personalized touch which is really great. It really goes a long way. Also they make their own Vietnamese ham here and its added usually to the meat soups in a delicate slice. It's fresh and tastes SO good. It's not tofu! Highly recommend if you are a local or just passing through. I recommend at least 1 appetizer with your main and it is worth it. You'll leave highly satisfied and knowing you will return! A++++++ establishment.

Das Essen ist lecker - allerdings etwas anders als "Gyros" in Deutschland. Ausserhslb des Trubel, lohnt den Weg. Bis auf die Pita alles Glutenfrei!
