I’d avoid the GF bun it’s very dry and crumbly but they the most celiac safe place I know! Dedicated fryers, very knowledgeable staff and amazing GF fried chicken! When you order online they even have a celiac option to check off.
Step into a beautifully designed space reminiscent of old-school Chinatown, where unique HK flavors and lovingly crafted treats await.

Fantastic experience here on all fronts: service, food, and atmosphere. The people who run the place were exceedingly friendly and went above and beyond taking care of customers. The design is modern but with little details in the decor give the place an authentic homely feeling. The backstory behind this cafe is so interesting - apparently the space has been in the family for three generations (you can read about them on their website).
The menu features modern HK comfort food and is all gluten-free! I was there around 2 pm on Saturday and many of the baked goods were sold out, but luckily they still had what I wanted. I tried their corn pot pie, a ginger milk burnt sugar cookie, and an iced HK milk tea. The corn pot pie was creamy but not heavy, topped with a pastry that was the perfect sweet spot between crisp and soft. Very comforting. The cookie was phenomenal!! At first bite, the taste of fresh ginger was VERY strong and the burnt sugar added depth to the flavour without making it too sweet at all. The texture was also amazing, soft and chewy, and I loved the thick edges. As expected, the HK milk tea was also excellent, strong and smooth. The tall and full glass was much appreciated because I didn't want it to end. Dipping the cookie in the milk tea was heavenly.
I can't overstate how much I enjoyed my visit here. You can really tell how much love has gone into this cafe.
A vibrant spot bursting with unique decor and a funky diner vibe, offering a diverse menu that guarantees an enjoyable dining experience.

In heaven. Most items are or can be made safe for celiac. Had the Yum Bowl…sooooo good. The best part though? GLUTEN FREE ONION RINGS. They were just incredible. If you’re able, come down and chow down. It’s definitely worth it.

Came here for our anniversary dinner, as a celiac I usually avoid eating out Italian as the pasta substitute js subpar, that was not the case here. The best gluten free pasta I’ve ever had and most appies and all deserts were gluten free. My gluten eating husband also said it was the best pasta he’s ever had. Was nice to have a desert option that was not a flourless chocolate cake, highly recommend the olive oil cake! The service was really good and they were very knowledgeable about celiac. Would highly recommend!

This was the second time I've had their pizza! The cashew cheese is sooo good! All crusts are wheat free, and they have separate oven and fryer for celiac. The cashew blue cheese dip was the perfect pairing. One thing I wanted to add is the last time I had the BEST vegan ice cream flavor I've ever had. Lavender and butterfly pea! Please do that again!

My travel partner and I each had a gluten-free free lamborghini with salad. Fresh ingredients, meat had nice seasonings, and a good flat bread (gf "bun"). They earn a double tasty and a recommendation to all GF eaters out there. Already planning a return visit when back in Vancouver in a few weeks.

We were here from Ontario, and read that they served gluten free burgers and fries (my wife and son both have Celiac Disease). They were delicious!! Best burger and fries they've had, and my other two sons and I both loved our non gluten free burgers too. We all liked everything so much we came back a second time during our visit! Excellent and friendly service. Highly recommend!

As a newly diagnosed celiac my priorities for dining out have drastically altered. In the past this place wasn’t great in my eyes due to the service staff being not so attentive, however I recently had a great experience and better yet they are very gluten free friendly.
I am under the impression they have a specific gluten free fryer and they have many options for celiac.
The GF burger was a really impressive surprise and all the GF sides were also very good.
Thank you and please keep it up! I will return for sure.

This place was great! As someone with celiac disease, it was so nice to know everything was 100% gluten free, and my non celiac fiance loved the bowl he got too.
I had the regular size porchetta with honey mustard, rice pilaf and garden salad and it was delicious and the perfect portion. Will 100% go back next time I am in the city!
But do note, there is no bathroom so make sure to not wait until you get to the restaurant like I did, assuming there would be one lol.

We tried Bombay Bad Boy pizza and were surprised with flavor. I will highly recommend trying "Almond Cassava" crust; it is gluten free but not too hard or crispy.
Definitely worth visiting if you are vegan/vegetarian food lover or, interested in trying vegan food.

Their menu had things marked as Gluten Free although since we didn't order im not sure if they have a designated fryer or not.
Thankyou for the wonderful service staff, you were all so nice 😊

We visited your tea house to celebrate my wife's birthday. Overall, we appreciated several aspects of the experience:
The greeting upon arrival was warm and welcoming.
The timing for seating was perfect.
The selection of teas was excellent.
The atmosphere was delightful and contributed positively to the occasion.
The savouries were enjoyable, and the gluten-free options were thoughtfully prepared.
However, there were a few areas that could be improved:
Unfortunately, the sweets did not taste fresh, which was disappointing, especially given the otherwise high quality of the experience.
During my visit to the washroom, I observed three-four floor staff engaged in casual conversation and gathered around a cellphone, which gave the impression of inattentiveness. This was noticeable and detracted somewhat from the overall service standard. That said, one of the team members provided particularly professional and attentive service, which we truly appreciated.
In summary, while the experience was pleasant in many ways, we felt that the value did not fully match the $56 per person price point. For that reason, we are unlikely to return, but we do hope our feedback is helpful and constructive.
Thank you for the experience.
Experience vibrant vibes and outstanding service with a killer bar scene and a menu that caters to diverse tastes and dietary preferences.

We went to try the gluten free bannock, however it for ever changed us for the better. What an absolute journey Salmon n’ Bannock took us on. We arrived to an intimate dining room and escorted to our table. We were greeted by an all indigenous team. The team all works together to ensure you are taken care of. Hearing the land acknowledgement and the life story of our waitress’ life thus far was so impactful. It actually brought tears to our eyes. We chose Blueberry and Sage Refreshers which tasted so fresh and refreshing. We started with the Candied Salmon and the Bannock with Brie and Bison Gravy… to die for!Followed by the risotto with sockeye salmon and the Bison Pot Roast. We were absolutely filled to the brim with delicious food. This is without a doubt a must stop when n Vancouver. One will not be disappointed.

That is a very nice place, with a lot of gluten free, vegetarian and vegan options. I got the drink on the house and it was delicious and refreshing lemonade. Didn’t get the chance to ask a servers name, but he was delightful and very friendly. The food was well seasoned and really tasty. I also asked about the weight of lamb to count the proteins and they provided that to me. I would rate it 6 stars if I could.

I chose the Pour house based on reviews and a widely advertised gluten free menu. There is indeed a gluten free fryer however other allergies were not well managed. We discussed extensively with the team what was available and were offered chips and a green salad. As we were attending a show nearby we took the option believing it to be relatively safe. We were disappointed at the lack of effort to accommodate or make any suggestions of suitable items. I had a reaction shortly after dinner. I would not recommend this venue to anyone with a serious allergy

I’ve always loved coming here. Today was probably my 6th-8th visit, and I can say with confidence that Hello Nori is very consistent. The yellowtail hand roll with Shiso leaf added is my favourite. The by the glass sake options are great and they all pair well with the rolls. Lisa was my server today and she was excellent. She checked in lots and made sure that the chef was aware of my gluten intolerance. Gold star for Hello Nori, I will be back!

As Vancouver locals we love returning to Anh and Chi.
The food is always delicious as is the atmosphere. Felt compelled to write a review this time to commend Nico on his exceptional service. He is extremely thorough, attentive, knows the menu inside and out and was never flustered despite the busy restaurant. My partner is celiac and Nico was able to walk through suggestions in every category of the menu even explaining how the dishes are prepared (washing the wok during the prep, etc) and suitable substitutions if required. It’s hard to come by service like this in Vancouver, so we appreciated it! Thank you! We will happily continue to return and bring others with us.

Unforgettable Dining Experience at Zarak – A Must-Visit!
I had the pleasure of dining at Zarak for the first time in July with a group of five people, each of us with different dietary restrictions – gluten-free, dairy-free, coconut-free, and vegetarian. While I initially felt overwhelmed by the menu, our server, Sanmeet, turned what could have been a stressful situation into a seamless and enjoyable experience. She took the time to carefully listen to our restrictions and, in less than a minute, curated the perfect menu for us, ensuring we could enjoy our time together without worrying about what to order. Her recommendations were spot on, and the variety of cocktails was equally impressive!
From the moment we stepped into the restaurant, the entire team made us feel welcome and cared for. The level of attentiveness was beyond compare. One detail that stood out to me was how the staff intuitively timed their service – they approached us only during natural pauses in our conversations, which I deeply appreciated. At one point, I needed a napkin, and just as I was about to ask, one of the staff members approached me, and it felt like they had read my mind. It’s those small details that really made the experience special.
Now, the food was incredible, but what made the evening truly unforgettable was the exceptional level of customer service. Towards the end of the night, everyone except me ordered dessert because I couldn’t find anything on the menu that was both dairy-free and coconut-free, which I was fine with. Sanmeet noticed and immediately went above and beyond to accommodate me. Within minutes, she brought out a delicious pistachio gelato, which had no gluten, coconut, or dairy – and it was on the house! That thoughtful gesture spoke volumes about her dedication to making sure everyone had a wonderful time.
What’s even more impressive is that when my partner and I returned to Zarak a month and a half later for drinks and dinner, Sanmeet remembered us. The genuine smile on her face when I greeted her by name made it clear that this restaurant isn’t just about serving great food – it’s about creating lasting relationships with their guests.
Sanmeet’s warmth, attention to detail, and genuine care for her guests left an incredible impression on me, and I’ve been raving about Zarak to everyone I know. If you ever visit, I highly recommend asking for her – she truly made our dining experience unforgettable. I look forward to returning again and again!
