Top 50 Gluten-Free Mediterranean Spots to Explore in Queensland

Ben Grant

Gorgeous space, good music and right on the river. Plus, they accommodated gluten-free effortlessly.

Fries and other fried foods are not cooked in a separate fryer, so not coeliac safe - separate utensils but no separate preparation processes. Really helpful and kind management and staff, but we chose not to risk it. (We have eaten here prior to a coeliac diagnosis in our family and it’s truly delicious!!)

Lisa Taylor

Definitely celiac friendly seperate fryer for chips and plenty of GF choices

Sheree Murray

Amazing food & no reaction!

Sarah

Excellent service and even better food. Yaya's is a great family friendly restaurant that caters well to gluten free. Staff went above and beyond

Helen Seleim

We went here to try the food as my friend is celiac and they offer gluten free options. Food was yummy. Lamb pieces were abit tough but the other 2 skewers were a hit! Rice was bland but the yoghurt helped. Ambience is nice though tables were very crowded in small space.

Rachel Cooper

Fantastic dining experience. Lots of Gluten Free options, which us why we came, but we were delighted by the warm welcome and fabulous service. We will definitely be back.

A pre-booked table not ready when we arrived. All good we were seated a few minutes later. The wait staff seemed distracted and distraught when I advised that our group was not having the set menu. Wait staff seemed to think this was a given. Only 1 drinks menu available for the table we asked several times. Ordered wine took 45 minutes to have that delivered. Others on the table had their mains sides delivered prior to entree. One of our group is coeliac and ordered a GF free option which was delivered with bread on the plate! Noisey atmosphere staff were overrun. We were not asked about the bill payment for our large group and we had to rock up 1 x 1 and relay what each person/couple were paying for. Very weird. The food when it finally arrived (mine anyway) was hot fresh and tasty. Other group members complained about a serving size of a lamb shoulder. Limited wine list and average quality with above average pricing. It’s a big no from myself and others in our group. The wait staff were friendly enough but just not focused or way too distracted. I will not be returning an extremely expensive and disappointing night all round and sad as it was a ‘celebration’ for 2 of our group. I was embarrassed that I suggested this place & the interstate visitors were not impressed.

Leonie Noble

They had a separate gluten free menu. The food was delicious and the staff were very accommodating

Dav Cowper

Incredible. Friendly and attentive service, confident and assuredly gluten free. Great food and a big portion. Mixed platter had a good amount of everything. Best falafel I've ever had. Fresh banana smoothie.

Kerry Mckee

Awesome I don't remember going to a restaurant lately that everything that was as great as this place The service was 💯 The food was 💯 If you have a allergy ie Gluten they will explain and suggest options. Will definitely return.

Shannon Ward

My wife went there yesterday and had a shared menu, as she is coeliac she had a slightly different menu as expected, however she was given one less dish than all of the other people in the group (the steak/fish which would have been easy to cook gluten free). She was shown the different menu beforehand, but didn’t realise that it was missing that dish relative to the rest of her party She commented that the food she did have was delicious, but the experience fell short of expectations.

Nat Barn

Had a fantastic meal tonight with my family. Amazing staff who provide 10/10 service. The owners are very Coeliac aware and came to our table to explain all the options for our young son who is a Coeliac. All our meals came out quickly and very delicious. We will be back!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Maman Bar & Kitchen, and it was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with warm hospitality that made me feel right at home. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxed meal with friends or family. The food was absolutely divine. Each dish was a delightful blend of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern flavors, crafted with care and made from the freshest local and organic ingredients. I especially loved that they offered a variety of vegan and gluten-free options, catering to all dietary preferences without compromising on taste. Every bite was bursting with flavor, and it was clear that everything was made with love. The drinks were equally impressive, with no-nonsense cocktails and a great selection of sustainable wines that perfectly complemented the meal. The attention to detail in both the food and service was truly outstanding. Overall, Maman Bar & Kitchen exceeded my expectations in every way. The combination of delicious, thoughtfully prepared food and exceptional hospitality made for an unforgettable dining experience. I can’t wait to return and would highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a wonderful meal in a welcoming setting.

Loved dining here. Great gluten free options and we loved Maxine - an absolutely delightful server!

Katy Weir

Great dining experience - atmosphere is lovely, white table cloths, fancy and attentive wait staff, greek music, christmas decorations and lovely decor - a well oiled machine with people who know what they're doing! We had the bbq baby octopus (yum!!), skandali (snapper and garlic prawn topper), steak, veal and mushroom, gluten free prawn pasta, creme brulee and tiramisu - all very yummy, well sized and reasonably priced! Gluten free options amazing - most items available gf!

Greek food would never fail you. Craving for another yiros wrap after having one in Melbourne. Friendly staff. Gluten-free pita available. delicious. But they all got one common thing, it's a bit pricy for the amount of food you get. Other than that, great taste, not too greasy. Pita tasted fresh. Clean professionally food packaging. Will come back for sure 😉

Mark Coffey

I went to Yiani's Greek Restaurant in Coolum on my last night on the Sunshine Coast. So glad I did as I was extremely impressed with the quality of the food and wine and also the great atmosphere. Upon arrival you are warmly greeted by Yiani and his lovely staff. The waitress was excellent and went above and beyond to recommend wine and dishes on the menu. I had the Beef Mousaka with Greek Salad. I can honestly say it's the best Mousaka I've had since I was in Greece many years ago. The gluten free Baklava cake is amazing. I would highly recommend going to Yiani's on Beach Road Coolum Beach if you are visiting the Sunny Coast. Five stars for everything.

James Stewart

A must visit if in the area. Was introduced to Rumi's a few years ago by friends and always return when near Broadbeach. Their mixed platter for two is heavenly - an absolute must and easy to see why it's their most popular dish. And they can easily alter it for full gluten free and other dietary considerations. The service is always fantastic - the staff rake real pride in customer care. If I had any feedback, it would be to list on the menu that they can handle different dietary requirements. But apart from that, this place is perfect.

Jillian Whitfield

Authentic, friendly and very helpful staff. Our gluten free requirements were met with a welcoming smile, and nothing was too much trouble. Staff were excellent, and checked to make sure we were happy with our meals (which we were). Food and atmosphere made it an evening to remember. We’re locals … and we’ll be back.

Paul Guyett

Nice food and catered well for Gluten Free

Emily Lee

Really yummy restaurant and I love the falafels!!! They were gluten free too! The espresso Martini was not good though. Don’t order that. The portions are also very small. But cute and vibey ambiance to the restaurant!!

Ella Gibb

Really awesome place! Great lunch deals under $20 gluten free, vegetarian options too!

Kristy-Lee

One of my favourite cafes in Coolangatta! The meals are made with fresh ingredients and are full of flavour. The best gluten free bread!! We love the breakfast special pita bread pocket and coffee. The pita bread is freshly made and it is great to be able to substitute this with fresh and flavoursome gluten free bread for my gluten free friends. The mochas are also to die for ☕️

Fazila Anwar

They falsely advertised that they have gluten free food. I ordered some food and specifically asked the guy that my kids are celiac and no bread should be added to the meal. Then our food came embedded on the breads and lots of it. I don’t recommend it to people who have celiac, allergy to gluten.

Sammy VB

INCREDIBLE. AUTHENTIC. GREAT PRICES. I have cravings for the Gluten free wrap, with Garlic Dip and charcoal chicken frequently!

Jenny Lance

Food is traditional and to die for! Flavours are a party on their own and perfectly cooked. Prices are good too. Gluten free options aplenty.

Shae Shae

Hadn’t been here for a while following a few visits with quite average service. We decided to give it another chance as we are local and felt something different. We were welcomed by Connell who looked after us all night with impeccable service and made our night a wonderful experience and the food was all very fresh and tasty, would highly recommend the beef sharwama. As a coeliac I had a heap of wonderful options. We will definitely be back sooner now.

Rieta Mistry

We had an awesome meal, it catered fabulously to all the different dietary requirements we had. It offered a great vegetarian gluten free option which is not readily available at many places. The friendly service and clean well presented place completed our experience.

Happy Days

was a drive through, loved the gluten free options, the lamb was GREATTTTTTTT

Lachlan Woodward

Great gluten free options

Olivia Martin

Joe's is great! Everything was fresh and tasted great. They have catered for gluten free (🙋‍♀️), vegetarian & vegans. Wonderful hospitality too.

Sarah

Food was great and had bursts of flavour. Setting is very nice and Mediterranean like. As someone with a gluten allergy as well, staff were able to accomodate and adjust menu items as needed

Jane Stavrinoudis

We were guests at a birthday party where a few of us had special dietary issues. The service and food were sensational, and the experience was one of the few times I didn't feel like a pariah. The gluten and dairy free options were delicious and the staff went out of their way to reassure me that what I was eating was safe. Thank you to all for a fabulous night!

Kay Van

This was such a lovely restaurant to go to for dinner! Not only was the restaurant extremely welcoming, they had great music and a beautiful and fun belly dancer!! Natalie served me at the restaurant and was exceptionally accommodating to my dietary needs. She made it a mission to deliver incredible service throughout the entirety of dinner, and to be attentive, caring, and kind. She was so careful to point out which dishes were available for me to eat with my Gluten and Dairy intolerances, and even gave me first picks off of the plate of fish to prevent cross contamination as it was a shared dish amongst the tables. That small detail made an impactful and big difference, as it showed she cared and understood how careful you have to be when it comes to anyone’s intolerances and allergies! She was so lovely and it was such a fun and welcoming atmosphere!!!! Thank you!!!!

Chris Spillane

We had a great catchup lunch with old work colleagues here. The food was delicious, the service friendly and helpful. One diner is a coeliac and was well catered for.

Taani Winder

Delicious food and accommodating to special requests. Love the low gluten options. Super fast and fresh even by delivery

Sara Parsons

Great freshly made tasty vegetarian and gluten free food served beautifully. Great kids area for books and toys.

Rachael Henry

The staff at Char Belas are great! My husband is a celiac and they are always accommodating and take care when completing our order. The team are always friendly and the food is truly delicious!

Muzic

The medium-rare beef that I ordered seemed to be medium-rare when it was served, but it was still delicious without too much gluten.

Cleopetra T

The best 'kebab style' wrap I've ever tasted in Brisbane 😋 it was fortunate to see that they even had gluten free wraps too! The lamb is of high quality and they make the best chips 🍟 😍 I wish they had better seating for larger groups of people but we still enjoyed the dine-in regardless ☺ ☺

Michele Mosley

Danielle Dixon

Great portion size, hot and fresh and the gluten free pita was the best!! Really enjoyable lunch

Seth Reardon

Loved this place. Its got a great little relaxed charm to it. The food was excellent. We had the duck breast, the lamb strap and the crispy skin chicken breast and they were all fantastic. Hard to choose which was better the duck or chicken. Rocket salad for a side was also very good. Portions were just the right size. Staff were friendly but not over bearing. They were nice to accommodate us with an outside table which had a great atmosphere overlooking the marina. If they had a gluten free dessert option we would have stayed for dessert, but you can't have everything!

Kate W

Absolutely delicious! Halloumi fries are a must! Service with a smile, clean and tidy, child friendly and good Gluten free options :) will definitely be back!

Charlotte

We were pretty disappointed in the gluten free options at this restaurant. They had no GF mains, however they did offer the option to order a main and swap out the non-GF items for parts of a starter though, which was good. However having to ask exactly what part of each main had gluten and then figure out what to substitute for it was a bit overwhelming as it wasn't clear what parts of each dish had gluten. I ended up ordering a dip, the halloumi and falafel instead of a main, which I didn't mind. I told both waitresses I couldn't have gluten, however when the dip came out it came out with bread. I didn't trust it didn't have gluten, so waited until one came back and checked. She said it did have gluten, and that I could eat the dip with a spoon. I'm really disappointed I paid $22 for a dip, to be told to eat it with a spoon. Also, they knew I couldn't have gluten yet still gave me bread without informing me it wasn't gluten free. The rest of the food was okay, I felt pretty underwhelmed though. I was sad I spent over $50 on my food (and $100 between us) to eat dip with a spoon. For a place that has so many GF items (many of which are dips), why would you have such oversight to not give something to eat a dip with? Or a less complicated way to order a gf main? And really sending out bread with a dip when you've advertised it as gluten free, then making them eat it with a spoon isn't great at all. Other than that, the waitresses were nice and so was the atmosphere. Probably wouldn't recommend to a friend however for above reasons

J Silva

Amazing GLUTEN FREE souvlaki I was so pleased to finally find a take away which is gluten free friendly Plus it was delicious Thank you so much for the experience ❤️🥰

Rita Fellows

Not much of a range for gluten free vegetarians (no eggs). The menu is small but the other non vegetarian dishes were stunning. The croissant toasties are delectable.

Megan Bischof

I absolutely enjoy my meal with company, but without a question our waiter kanishka was helpful with my request for gluten free options. She's was a delight to have our server. 10/10 for her professional attitude.

Sherrise Hanchard

Great food, the portions were very generous and every dish we had was absolutely delicious! They were great for Gluten Free and I was surprised with how many options there were. It was hard to pick only a few dishes. We're already planning on going back again very soon, and we were excited to learn the bar garden is dog friendly!
