First time trying this place through a delivery app. The gluten free margherita was nice. One star deducted because the entire edge of the crust was burnt - I don't expect to pay good money for burnt food.

I can't believe this place is not widely known to the Gluten Free community, they are coeliac Australia accredited restaurant. Price is reasonable, food is great.

Great food- the duck- amazing They mucked up with one dish as they ran out of gluten free flour but didn't tell us- luckily my wife double checked. Their recovery was great- offered a complimentary dish of duck pancakes ( without the pancake of course) and it was the best duck we have had in a while. The satay chicken sticks also really good. Really friendly service. Our first time here and will definitely return!

Window of delicious cakes stopped us in our tracks. We tried the vanilla slice and was the most perfect vanilla slice I’ve ever had and I’ve had a few! Also tried the flourless, gluten free orange cake, very nice, moist and perfect with a cup of coffee. Atmosphere was average, small sitting area however I was there for the dessert.

Glad to see a new Vietnamese place in this area. The food is of excellent quality. I would have preferred more salad than the huge amount of noodles in the rice vermicelli salad, but that's just my personal preference. It was certainly filling and all the ingredients were fresh. What impressed me especially was their understanding of dietary requirements and flexibility to cater to dietaries - staff queried that one dish was requested gluten free but not the other (great attention to detail) and offered a gluten free dipping sauce for the rice paper rolls. I would definitely order from here again and would recommend it.

We called up in a panic as our original dinner spot had caught on fire! Taco bill fit all 7 of us in immediately and were awesome! I wouldn't say the food is gourmet but it's what you expect, Mexican food! The gluten free menu had plenty of options and I didn't feel excluded or like I had missed out! Yum! The waiter we had was awesome too!

Bricklane Bagels is 100% worth the visit! Delicious! I have coeliac disease, so I’d have never have thought to try here if it wasn’t for it being a recommendation on the GF app. The staff are well informed on coeliac disease, so prepared my gluten free bagel separately to avoid cross-contamination. The bagel itself was delicious and toasted to perfection, and the toppings complimented each other really well. The choice of toppings is fantastic - I’ll have to come back to try the other flavours! The staff even said they have gluten free Vegemite too! The staff were all very friendly, welcoming and warm - and so lovely to one another, it seemed like a lovely team, which made the atmosphere very comfortable. I recommend!
