cute Japanese gluten free cafe
Loved their vege tempura noodles! Really fresh ingredients and clear but flavorful broth
They also have mochi, donuts, sushi rolls, onigiris to choose from
I think my partner and I had an incredible time here.
As a coeliac person I have not had the chance to eat gluten-free dumplings for years now, so it felt so amazing for me that I found this amazing restaurant that has such delicious gluten-free dumplings.
My partner and I found the food delicious, friendly service, incredible views and the weather at the time was absolutely stunning.
I feel that I loved it and I would undeniably recommend.
This place is fabulous for those looking for gluten free goods, the options are endless and delicious! The sweet and sour pork was absolutely outstanding and the vermeceli noodles were to die for. I would 100% recommend checking it out as a dinner spot/date spot! A nice and relaxing restaurant that l will definitely be returning to in the future :)
Stopped in here for some food. Awesome customer service, delicious food, well priced and lots of gluten free options. After eating there I cannot believe that this restaurant isn't more highly rated.
Incredibly accomodating and knowledgeable about gluten free/coeliacs and what is suitable on their menu. Even come by with a card for you to have near your place setting with “coeliac” written so no servers mistake your order.

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 ordered some food to go here because we tried coming last minute (even on a weekday) and they had no tables available. So make reservations in advance. I got their yellow curry to go and it was delicious. After asking the staff they said they take precaution in the kitchen to help prevent cross contamination. They said that you can't have any fried foods though because it's not a dedicated fryer.
High quality, elevated but still traditional southern Chinese taste.
Steamed beef rolls were silky and flavoursome, with a nice hint of coriander.
The beef tendons were soft and delicious.
The dumplings were all gluten free and perfectly steamed.
Crispy skin chicken was deboned which was a pleasant surprise.
The soft shell crab (also gluten free) was crispy and I could tell the oil was very fresh. This was honestly the best soft shell crab I have had.
All in all, a succulent Chinese meal indeed.
I love Chat Thai, especially this one on level six of the Westfield. As well as being away away from all the crowds on the food court below, the food is delicious, fresh and staff are friendly. As a person with coeliac disease, I have eaten here many times with no issue - I just select a gluten free marked option, and then let staff know about my dietary requirement. There is a risk of cross contamination, and they advise they can’t guarantee it’ll be 100% gluten free, but I’ve eaten here many times and had no issue, but make your own decision. My favourite is the fried rice dishes!
Busy on a Saturday night but only waited 15 mins for a table for 4.
Delicious food, great decor and atmosphere, friendly helpful staff and lots of gluten-free options for my coeliac daughter.
i have celiac disease and was pleased to see so many options on the menu. Our server insisted that the items we ordered were safe for me BUT shortly after my dinner I was in terrible pain and extremely sick. We ordered the gf options but i’m certain they gave us non-gf (i haven’t had a dumpling that good in a long time). This was the only food I had that evening and i’m familiar with what it feels like to be glutened. It turned my night into a horrid affair, not to mention it’s a fairly pricy place only for me to get sick :(

Looking for the good old slap up Chinese meal? Look no further!
Heard about this place and was impressed by the gluten free options for classic 80s Aussie Chinese.
It’s like a staged time capsule to the 80s with a good dose of humor.
Make sure you book because it was busy!
But that only added to the atmosphere.
Good beer, great food and friendly staff.
What else can you ask for.
Definitely going back. May be for Sunday yum Cha next time. (Without the coeliacs)

Mum and I went for dinner last night and really enjoyed the food. Really appreciative of the dietary options able to do most things gluten free which was great. Lovely service and five star food and drink! Would recommend!
Staff were great & helpful the only issue was there wasn’t a meal for Vegan & Gluten free. The kitchen did try to find something but choice was very limited. I would like to suggest there is at least one option for this dietary requirement.
Ok wow, the food here is some of the best vegetarian/vegan food I’ve ever tried. The Szechuan chilli chicken was very impressive, I’ve had many variations of this dish with chicken and this one with vegan chicken is just as good as the best meat ones I’ve had. The wok fried beans were stir fried perfectly and had a nice char and crunch to it.
The dumplings were incredible, we had the English spinach, mushroom and sweet corn, and pandan choysum dumplings. All were gluten free as well and exquisitely made, very soft skin that’s packed with delicious filling. They also had homemade chilli oil on each table and they were perfect to go with the dumplings.
For dessert I had the mango pancakes and they were awesome, fresh mango wrapped with delicious coconut cream and freshly made crepe. One of my favourite desserts.
All the food we had were gluten free except the chilli chicken and mango pancakes. My partner is coeliac and enjoyed the gluten free options with no issues. Will definitely be back!
Service was fantastic. Food was fantastic. My only slight issue is when ordering set menu if gluten free there’s a lot of veggie dishes, I love vegetarian food but would still have liked some more meat options.
It has been at least 15 years since I dined at Bay Tinh, it was my favourite restaurant for years. I returned on Friday night with a group of friends who have never been there before. The food was delicious, the taste and freshness were absolutely how I remembered. The biggest plus was that they totally catered for our dietary requirements, vegan and gluten free. I can't believe it has taken me so long to get back there and I cannot wait to return. All my friends were super impressed too :)
The absolute best. We had breakfast here two days in a row and the service and food was impeccable. Also had gluten free options for our coeliac daughter. 👌👌
My wife took here for my birthday and it was amazing.
The atmosphere was fantastic, the staff were amazing and the food.....OMG it was sensational!
A great wine list too!
I am coeliac and they cater for almost everything on the menu, we can't wait to go back and try more of these delicacies again soon.
A huge shout out to all the staff, they were super attentive, friendly without being overbearing.
See you soon!
Korean Samurai is one of my go to takeaway spots for an affordable and delicious feed. I always get their bulgogi with either pork of beef and both are excellent. When you dine in the bulgogi comes out sizzling hot and the aroma of the dish is incredible. Staff are always so friendly here, and it’s close to the Orpheum so it’s a great food option if you are watching a show there. They also have plenty of gluten free options that have been fine for a coeliac, namely the bibimbap and bulgogi are the gluten free options we’ve tried so far.
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.
Absolutely fabulous food, service and atmosphere.has definitely become a favourite place to eat. Gluten free options are plenty, coeliac friendly just let them.know.

Food and drinks were lovely but service and venue are not good for a group booking. I would recommend considering other restaurant options for following reasons:
- booked for 19 guests ($3000 spend), one person was sick on morning of and we were still charged per head for them - no flexibility with the group booking policy even with unforeseen events. Also charged for a whole extra person, there has been communication with the restaurant regarding this and they have communicated they will refund the extra charge but not the ‘no show’.
- On arrival, the restaurant was very quiet for weekend lunch service. Staff were not friendly (except one male waiter, short with brown hair) or welcoming, in fact we almost felt we were an inconvenience. This continued throughout our entire experience at lunch.
- they could not accomodate or move tables together so that 18 people could sit together. We were sitting on two adjacent tables and separated. The reason they explained for this was that by putting two table together “it would interrupt service to other tables”. As mentioned above the restaurant was quiet and there were no other guest dining around us at all for the entirety of our booking.
- We had provided dietary requests upon making group booking and were informed via email that the booking notes would be updated. Staff came to take our order and they did not appear to be aware we were having the banquet and had no prior knowledge of pre-notified dietary requirements.
- Additionally, there was no indication that we would then be charged extra for food substitution for those with allergies. Ie charged extra $9 for roti for someone anaphylactic to sulphites and someone who is coeliac
- I can appreciate extra charges for substitutions but the restaurant didn’t consider crediting us when we only ordered 9 desserts instead of 18. Of course ordinarily I would not have expected credit for this but I think some flexibility and consideration for the extra charges for dietary would go along way!
- Fans above tables were not working and we were told they were broken. Summer in Byron bay is hot!
Overall, Bang Bang has fallen short of providing a smooth experience for a celebratory group booking and I would consider the multiple other dining options in Byron.
We really enjoyed our experience at Oh My Papa. The staff were very friendly and professional. The food was delicious and the servings generous. They accommodated my coeliac husband very well and without any fuss.
✨ Anniversary Dinner at Mr. Wong – A Night to Remember ✨
We celebrated our 3-year anniversary at Mr. Wong last night, and it was nothing short of fan-tas-tic. From the moment we arrived, the service was outstanding, the ambience was warm and stylish, and the entire experience felt incredibly special.
Every dish we had was delicious — and gluten-free, which made it even better!
🍽️ Roast Duck, scallop, prawn, and winter melon in superior broth – delicate, comforting, and full of flavour
🥢 Peking Duck Pancakes – a must-try, beautifully presented
🥦 Broccolini, asparagus, sugarsnaps & snowpeas – fresh and vibrant
🥩 Angus Beef Cubes – tender and mouthwatering
A special shoutout to Giuliano, the manager, who welcomed us so warmly and made us feel truly celebrated — his attention to detail and hospitality set the tone for the entire evening. He took a good care of us all night, recommended great dishes and drinks 🍷, and made us feel extra special. Thank you so much, Giuliano!! You were fantastic.
And thank you Thomas too for his conversation, his friendliness and his knowledge of the menu! Always checking to see if we need anything or if we're having a nice evening. Both of whom went above and beyond to make our evening memorable. 💛
And another special mention to Carmen, the hostess! Her energy and good vibes deserve a shout-out! Thank you!!
We will be back not only for the food, but for the service we had!
I wouldn’t have bothered with a review, but they sent an email. It was terrible! Firstly I stood in line for booked patrons and a waitress barged past me twice, one time pushing my back without saying excuse me.
Then I ordered wine and 20 mins later I had to chase it up.
Then we ordered food and it all came out cold and at different times. I ordered gluten free gyozas (gf friends don’t bother) and was served soy sauce - vs tamari.
People around me were chasing up orders, places to sit, drinks and food. Bearing in mind we order via an app. The app crashed several times, which made the whole thing frustrating.
Thursday night, darling harbour, big show at the ICC - maybe try harder.
Great very large Asian restaurant located next door to the huge hotel and serving up modern Chinese cuisine.
STAFF: Exceptionally helpful, albeit seemingly less experienced dealing with a large booked out restaurant.
FOOD: Cannot rave about this enough! Very reasonably priced with various vegetarian and gluten free options. I was pleasantly surprised that they use gluten free flour/panko crumbs/pancakes etc - so rather than the typical inferior gf option - many of their dishes are served up as high quality gf by default - without compromising on flavour.
ENVIRONMENT: Very large, dimly lit, modern yet warm interiors which large groups of people can enjoy. At the times I was there - I witnessed several people enjoying Birthday/Engagement parties and business get togethers. Tables easily sitting 30+ people each.
ACCESSIBILITY: All wheelchair and pram accessible, including bathroom areas.
This place is pure gold! An authentic gem I visit regularly for delicious Currys. My kids favourite restaurant (eggplant pakoras!), and caters beautifully to our gluten free, dairy free, vegan and meat loving family members. Try the eggplant curry, goat curry, fish curry, spinach paneer. So so so good. And affordable! A Newcastle landmark.
