My girlfriend is a celiac and am so thankful they put effort and time in catering for my requirements. We had a wide variety of choices to choose from and the food came out amazing. Would definitely come again.

Love the food here, lots of coeliac safe options. Staff are friendly, knowledgeable about coeliac disease, and have always been helpful!

Their whole menu was almost all GF, barring a couple of things that were not made in house. Delicious food, and very friendly staff!

Elena Corso

All the food is vegan and gluten free. Set menu is very convenient and there is plenty of food. Definitely recommended if you have allergies or follow a vegetarian/vegan diet. Staff are nice and welcoming, definitely gonna go back!

We went to Don Fred after a long day of work, and we couldn't have wanted a better place to go to than Don Fred. Vegan, gluten free dining with a sumptuous Italian style and flavour. The service was impeccable. The food devine. We could taste the love of food in EVERY bite. If you're in Sydney, and even if you're travelling from interstate or overseas, this wonderful, intimate, plant based dining experience is a MUST for everyone . Once dined, you'll be thinking of the next time you'll be back

Delicious food and everything is gluten free.

Pros: - Ingredients are amazing, both in quality and type. - You can't go wrong with any of the pizzas: you'll love them, regardless of whether you're vegan or not (I am not). - Amongst my top-3 pizza places in Sydney. Cons: - Not a pizza that holds well as a take-away. - The only base alternative is gluten free. - Desserts aren't great and cost a lot. I'd rather order more entrees (like the croquettes, which are awesome), or have dessert elsewhere. - Seating is crowded and music is at a high volume --> Way too loud at peak hours. You won't be able to move, or talk to the person across the table. - Service could be improved (there's none).

My wife is vegan and I like to join her when she wants to eat at vegan only places. Most places are pretty boring and gimmicky, especially around Newtown where it seems people just give 5 stars because they're excited that another vegan restaurant has opened, even if it's really bad (and there's plenty of bad ones...). But Golden Lotus is fantastic! Easily on par, if not better than most Asian restaurants I've been to! I now make it a habit to go there often and try something new each time. Personally, I don't like the whole fake meat thing, plus it generally contains gluten, which I'm allergic to, so I stick with tofu dishes instead. They're not bad, it's just that if you're going to quit meat, then why bother with fake meat? Bothers me... Real vegan food doesn't need to contain fake meat. Real vegan food is just beautifully prepared plants with outstanding flavours, and there is plenty of that going around. The fake meat thing is a gimmick, and generally way over priced. I'll have real vegetables thanks. I'm looking forward to coming back tonight! I wonder what I'll try next...

3 months ago, Everything is great if you don't have coeliac disease, I sent them a text message to book a table and ask if they could cater for a coeliac, they said YES. So that YES was simply "I don't have the knowledge but let's give it a try", be aware that coeliac disease is not an allergy or intolerance, it is an autoimmune disease, so cross-contamination is no good for us either, it should be illegal in all restaurants. Of course I got glutened and was sick for 5 days, apart from that, my small intestine will still be damaged, so no tries and more empathy. I wrote them a message to let them know and they have left me in the dark. I hope this review is of some use.

The place is always busy and sometimes you need to line up for few minutes or even wait for a table, but the food is really good and really good portions. Sadly they don’t have much options for gluten free or dairy free. The price is ok

If I could give them more stars I would because OMG! Even if you are not a vegan this spot is absolutely to die for! My mom and I went for the first time today and got the curry with gluten free bread! Another amazing thing is the majority of the menu is gluten free or upon request can be gluten free which is such a perk! Adam the owner is so kind and the other staff were so sweet and attentive! They have amazing smoothies and other delicious food options….you bettaaaaa RUN not walk asap😋! Also the portions are very generous (could be 2 meals) and are filled with flavor! Definitely a spot we will be again!

This was our first visit to Delhi o Delhi and we were only sorry that we hadn’t been there earlier. The dishes we had were all very tasty and the right amount of spice for our palettes. There were very good wines to choose from and the service was of a high standard. Our waiter was very attentive with our dietary needs and was sure to let us know that the dessert we ordered with another waiter contained gluten. (I thanked him and let him know I was choosing not to have dessert and wanted my friends to try this delicacy). It was greatly appreciated that the waiter made that effort to make sure I wouldn’t get sick. We had a really enjoyable dinner and we all loved every dish. The Harissa Macchli Tikka was new for all of us and we loved it! The serving sizes were perfect for the four of us and was very reasonably priced. We were all very happy with our experience tonight. Thank you.

Really good vegan burgers and gluten free bun was really nice as well

My friends and I had a wonderful dinner here on New Year's Eve. Nothing was too much trouble for the restaurant and they catered beautifully for our gluten-free and vegan guests, and the staff were very welcoming. The food was delicious. Thank you for a lovely evening, we will definitely be back!

Advertised as having gluten free options but they share frying oil and don’t wipe down the plate that other gluten containing food is cooked on - avoid if coeliac! This was kindly communicated by the server but think it should be more explicit that the ‘gluten free’ options on the menu aren’t actually gluten free. We ate elsewhere.

Gluten Free Roti or Makki roti would would be a great addition

Luke

One of my favourite restaurants in Newtown. The most consistent restaurant around. Great portion sizes, gluten free options, kind staff. Probably been here about 30+ times 😆

Went in tonight (Saturday night) and ordered a gluten free burrito. Fred was super accommodating and took lots of care with my dietary requirement— so sweet and considerate. Big portions too. Thanks so much Fred!

Gabriella

Delicious vegan pastries and products. Great for breakfast, lunch or a snack. Some gluten free options. Well worth the wait that there sometimes is. Friendly staff.
