Stumbled upon this place as we were visiting the area from Toronto. I loved that everything was GF. A lot of dairy free options as well! The food was fresh, minimal ingredients and my stomach felt great after. We tried the breakfast platter, London fog latte, and a few DF/GF pastries that were delicious! Highly recommend the crème brûlée! I haven’t had one since my gluten/dairy intolerance and I was in heaven! I purchased a few more for the road. They also had a Mother’s Day high tea which was so cool because I haven’t found a gluten free high tea place in Toronto. We hope to be back next time we are in the area and would love to try high tea.

So disappointing! We have been ordering from here for years. It's the only place I can get gluten free fish and chips (I'm celiac). Our last order had half the number of fries, and the fries we did have were cooked twice. They were dry and burnt.

Michael Croley

I love to find places with gluten free and dairy free options. Must try!!!

Mikey G

Love the fact that you are thinking of your gluten free customers. Great subs.

Anthony Lombardo

My husband and I stopped in for lunch today. Food was very good. It was really nice to find a small place that catered to gluten-free. Will definately go back when we are in the area again. All the best to you.

Ordered via Uber eats and the food showed up still hot, together and delicious. The gluten free bun is actually good, and their poutine is awesome as well. My son who’s isn’t a big eater at most of his burger because he loved it.

After running some out of town errands, my cousin (who has celiac disease) and I were looking for a bite to eat before heading home. We made a quick google search and found Spicy Thai, and I’m so thankful for that! As someone who considers myself a foodie, believe me when I say that the food here is amazing! Not only was the food really good, my cousin who has a hard time finding good, fresh food that’s safe for her to eat was able to go wild on the menu here

++ We ordered the Veal Parmesan dinner for 4 for a work lunch. I asked that 1 of the chicken breasts be gluten and lactose free. They provided the order of 4 + an extra, separate meal of the gf chicken and pasta. Bonus! -- The plain chicken breast had no flavour and was over-cooked but the pasta and everything else was perfect. Thank you.

Cyndy Winstanley

Fresh. Taste is beyond yummy. Ya gotta try it! Gluten free options.

Lee CH

Friendly, accommodating staff. Maître D was awesome, made sure my gluten-free experience was perfect

Marilyn Tassone

Ordered a gluten free prosciutto and fig pizza today on Uber eats. $45 bucks for 4 slices! It was that small! Dough was not fresh, like I’ve had elsewhere. It was a pre-made disgusting disc. Only one peice of prosciutto on each slice. Where were the figs!? I counted three small peices of fig on the entire pie! It was also super salty! And, no honey?! The entire thing was a complete disappointment! You want good gluten free pizza? Pizza di Nonna in Grimsby! Never, ever again, with this place!

Tyler Kappe

**If you are booking Friday to Sunday, make sure to get a reservation** Food was excellent, I ordered the Gorgonzola Gnocchi and my girlfriend had the special, pumpkin ravioli with a brown reduction sauce. For the appetizer, we had the crispy calamari, the calamari itself was some of the best I have ever had! My only complaint is it was a bit salty. Everything they make there is fresh daily, ranging from the pasta to desert. They also have gluten free pasta as well. The strawberry gelato was great. Mack was also a great waiter!

Sarah Coates

Great celiac protocol and super nice staff! i really appreciated how knowledgeable they were about cross contamination!!

Kelly Drescher

Amazing!!! Just went here for the first time and could not say enough good things! The staff were super friendly from the second we walked in the door, going above and beyond. Vegan options were outstanding! Lots of choices and they even made the chimichangas vegan for me! The vegan chorizo is delicious and they were super generous with the vegan cheese, none of that skimpy stuff a lot of other restaurants do! Also very accommodating for my husband who cannot eat gluten, he loved the birria tacos! Would definitely recommend and we will be coming back!

Sharing my experience as its hard to have an enjoyable meal out as im a glu-tard ( gluten free ) . To my surprise i had a lovely gluten free pasta here in which i will return for many times . Missing a star as the young woman serving me had a nasty attitude

Andrew N

I had a wonderful experience here with my partner! We thoroughly enjoyed that everything was Vegan and furthermore there were clear labels for what was gluten free and soy free. Made the experience relaxing knowing that there were so many choices for someone with food restrictions. Even when it wasn’t GF. It could be made GF. I’m wowed by that! Thank you!

First time being here, so please take this at face value. It's entirely possible we caught the staff on a bad day. We arrived Friday morning around 930, it wasn't too busy. We ordered and then unfortunately waited almost an hour for our food. Nothing special was ordered - just two of the first few breakfast options on the menu. There were at least 4 tables that came in well after us and they received their food in under 20 minutes. Our waitress also asked every single table around us if they wanted more coffee, but not ours...which was a bit frustrating. The pemeal bacon was wonderful, and they did have gluten free toast which was much appreciated. The pan fried potatoes were very bland, even though the menu said they were fried with seasoning. I would have loved some hot sauce, but our waitress didn't check on us once while we were eating. I won't say I'm never going back, because again, it was our first time. I just hope future experiences for others are better.

Mike Somerville

Great gluten friendly place!!!

Claire Rendell

Recently came to this location and had a great experience! We were served by Bronwyn who gave me excellent recommendations on what I can and can’t eat as I’m coeliac. She was very attentive and made our dining experience so memorable! Highly recommend dining here!

Roseanna Gucciardi

Gluten Free Pasta and Sauce with added Chicken 🐔 😋 what a treat for me. Loved the atmosphere and the staff were fast and friendly. So many choices for everyone's tastes. Excellent salads, fresh breads and lots of drinks.

Susan D'Angelo

They accommodated my request to decomstruct my omelet. They have an option and accomodate gluten free request,we're quick yo pointbout they didn't have a gluten free kitchen or toaster. Which was appreciated.

Marla Pietruszko

so many glutenfree options for lunch and dinner !

Megan MacDonald

My partner and I held our wedding rehearsal dinner at Cats Caboose and we knew we were in great hands from our first interaction with Chris! He helped us build a menu that fit our wants, dietary restrictions, and budget and executed it perfectly! Everyone was so impressed by the food, and being gluten free, I felt very well taken care of and had tons of options. The service was also great and we loved the privacy of the back room. I highly recommend Cats Caboose for any event you’re holding!

My family of six dined here for breakfast. I have a gluten intolerance and the server immediately let me know they had GF bread and could accommodate my dietary restrictions. I had the French toast with Nutella and strawberries and it was divine. All of my kids cleaned their plates and my 4 year old gave it two thumbs up! Great service and great food.

Adam Halko

Great service. Very friendly and attentive. Tons of menu choices, including gluten free bread. The food came quickly and cooked perfectly. The decor is old diner style. LOVE IT! I couldn't have asked for a better breakfast. It was better than the breakfast at the 4 star hotel we were staying at.

Pamela derNederlanden

The server was super nice and helpful. He helped me pick a good level of spice and recommended the spicy peanut noodles, which were fantastic. The sauce was rich and delicious. There was a decent amount of veg in the dish as well, which balanced the richness of the sauce. You can choose your noodle type, and they have a few gluten free options. They also have zucchini noodles, which don’t even cost extra! The dish was ready super fast, too. I’ll definitely come again!

Anna Somogyi

Wow! What a beautiful restaurant. My daughter and I drove from Hamilton to try this place as we were told the food was fantastic. We were not disappointed! Food was so delicious, great portions sizes and Ma had a lot of Gluten free options! Our waitress was so engaging and actually seemed to love her job! Thank you Joey for a memorable experience. My daughter and I will -100% -be coming back again! I recommend trying Ma for your next date night. It’s worth the drive out to St Catherine’s.

Karrie Porter

Wonderful brunch spot. Lobster, eggs benedict and omelettes are my favourite. They also have gluten free options for toast.

Giacomo Sepe

We came for a late lunch at Big Marco's and were pleasantly surprised! We both had gluten free pizzas (we opted for the base which was made from cauliflower and rice flour after the waitress recommended it). The pizzas were delicious and the price was very reasonable. Definitely up there with the best gluten free pizzas I have had, next time we're in the area we will be back!

Robert Ferguson

Wow! Amazing sushi and Japanese food! Very accommodating for gluten free as well.

J A Glassford

Delicious gluten-free options and tastes fabulous. Cauliflower crust or Keto options too. Meat lovers for regular pizza is very generous with the portions. Ambs & Chef McDee recommend 👌

Irene Bishop

Great place, great for gluten free, vegan, options along with "regular" options.. Friendly staff! You have to try this place for yourself! Enjoy!!

Jessica Todd

a decent place for quick Thai food. not the safest for celiacs

Haley Thomson

Don't bother with the gluten free pizza. Used to be amazing, but recently changed their suppliers and might as well eat cheese on cardboard. It's still celiac safe, but pretty terrible. Wings are still good. Used to love this place and had hands down the best GF pizza in the area, unfortunate they had to change it.

Marla Pietruszko

not an exclusive gluten free facility but they do have GF pancakes, waffles, toast and more!

Tyler Hadland

Incredible gluten friendly pasta options. Tastes incredible. Nice view of the harbor.

Heather Lawrence

Very friendly and attentive staff. Food was good, we enjoyed the outdoor patio. Food, beverages, plus taxes and tip was about $25 per person. Portion size was very filling. We will return again. Shout out to server Samantha, engaging, humorous, right on the ball!! +++gluten free toast available.

KFP

Standard breakfast done well. Handled gluten free order two days in a row with no issues. On our second visit the restaurant was busy and a group of about 20 showed up. The staff were able to cope very well, seating the new customers while keeping the service level for us high. Good service and a good breakfast.

Kathy D

We love the Curry Pot. I am gluten free due to allergies and am amazed at the amount of choices I have. The food is delicious, well portioned (I always have lunch the next day) and staff friendly and willing to explain everything. The masala chai is the best!!!! We’ve taken a few friends so far and plan to bring more.

josh hallett

The service was very pleasant. Anya and Gaunik were very knowledgeable with helping ensure the food was celiac friendly for our table. They were great at making alternative suggestions whenever something wasn't safe. I would gladly come back here.

Charles Voth

Great food. Very accommodating for gluten free, including saganaki cheese and quinoa salad

Andrew Gabrielli

Huge portions, great service, very flavorful food. Decent gluten free options I would recommend going to this location or getting take out.

Richard Adler

Stopped into this location today for lunch. My partner is gluten free and he has chicken shawarma and I had a falafel. The sandwiches were extra good. Friendly staff. It was very busy (after 1:30) and the staff were working very hard and got everyone’s orders as quick as possible without being rushed. Great job.

Alison Howes

Best Vietnamese food in Niagara by far! I also have celiac disease and the owner/chef is always so helpful for finding me gluten free options. I think a lot of people order takeout from here but the inside of the restaurant is beautiful and deserves more attention!

M K

Pete’s on Pleasant has great pizza! Toppings are great, especially bacon. Their regular crust is perfect but the gluten free crust could have been cooked more as it was a little mushy in the middle. Wings are crispy and saucy. Their website shows different price amounts than inside the store.

Sammantha McCormick

Someone with coeliac disease the worker Jenna snow made the best gluten-free pita , no cross contamination and it was delicious. I left with a full belly and no reaction.❤️ also Thomas was so awesome gave me such amazing service!!

Shani F

I had a very positive experience at Izumi! Called ahead to order a sushi platter and asked for gluten free. The chef assured me that they had lots of options. The rolls are amazing and huge. The sushi and sashimi was great quality and fresh. They also had gluten free soya sauce. Will definitely order from them again!
