Best Gluten Free Pizza in Canada! I've been to nearly every province in Canada and this was by far the most unique pizza, good size for GF, bbq sauce base, chicken with hot honey sauce! Great atmosphere, friendly service.

Mitch was our server and he was amazing! Great recommendations and just an all around nice guy. Food here is amazing. If you’re gluten free they have one of the best gluten free crusts around. Def come here. Prices are more than fair.

Such a quaint and quiet restaurant. Beautiful, calming decor. Relaxing atmosphere. Wonderful service from the staff, easy to follow direction for ordering. Tasty food, I had the gluten free pad Thai (indeed spicy friendly because I cannot tolerate spice and this dish was perfect). Absolutely would recommend!

I go here everytime I'm in town, which is a couple times a month for work, and I've never had a bad drink here. There's a huge variety of drinks hot and cold and they always have interesting seasonal drinks as well. I always get a sandwich with a gluten free bun when I'm here, my favourites are the pesto chicken and the cran-apple chicken sandwiches, the gluten free bun is very good, and doesn't fall apart like other gf breads tend to.

Service was a little slow but they were pretty busy with other families and had to deal with our gluten and peanut allergies.

Lovely restaurant with a delicious gluten-free burger (the Amelia burger, with a GF bun) and the best bacon-wrapped scallops (also gluten free) I've ever had. The server (Kim) was very helpful and seemed knowledgeable about celiac and concerns about the potential risk of cross-contamination with wheat flour. Strongly recommended! 👍👍🍔 🤤

Gluten-free fish and chips. Cooked in a dedicated fryer. And the fish is crisp and delicious. The rice flour pushes away the moisture and creates a very tasty piece of fish. The serving size was right, not a mountain of fries on a monster slab of fish. They respect food quality and their patrons. Local cider on tap. We shall return!

Definitely not the experience we were expecting. It has been awhile since we were at Saltwater - we were last there in 2013 at the old location and it was excellent. It was a very different experience this time. Service was extremely slow, especially given that there were only a few other tables that were occupied. Just over an hour before we got the one appetizer that we shared between 2 of us. Our mains left a lot to be desired. The cod was very undercooked and the salmon was just “fine”. This was after witnessing multiple dishes going to wrong tables over and over, and then when ours finally arrived the server announced our gluten free salmon dish (we are not gluten free). The whole evening felt very chaotic and disorganized even though it did not seem busy at all. Our server was very kind and apologetic, she did it take the cod off of our bill. Overall, it was very disappointing and hopefully just a very “off” night for the staff/restaurant.

A friend and I stayed in the rooms upstairs, and after a long day of traveling from Vancouver, decided to head down to the bar after dropping stuff off in our room. I'm so glad we did! I had potato skins and the chicken wings. They were very tasty, and Gluten-free! I also had a fair amount of wine. :D The man behind the bar that night was attentive and kind (I think he even laughed at one of my jokes= very kind). As he grew up in the area, he also had a lot of fantastic recommendations. Some words about Blair: "Not only is Blair really smart, but he's also super kind and generous. I've heard him referred to as 'saintly' and I wouldn't argue." I would suggest trying whatever drink/cocktail special they have when you're there. They're concoction wizards! For a few other nights, we had Ian serving us. He was also kind and attentive, and withstood friendly roasting quite well. I looked forward to our evenings downstairs at Magnum & Steins. Other staff members, and especially the manager, Kelly, really made us feel like family. It was so lovely, and they're a major part of why I can't wait to head back to St. John's. I could probably write a novel, but I'll settle for this short story. ❤️
