Thank you SO MUCH for all the gluten free options. Amazing service. Place could do a masterclass on poached eggs (my grandmother would have been very impressed)
What a lucky find and a gem of a place! We were passing through after a long day of work and in need of a good, celiac safe option for dinner. The staff was super accommodating even though they were about to close. The majority of the menu can be made gluten free and is definitely the best Vietnamese food I’ve ever had (celiac or not). Highly recommend!! We absolutely loved the gluten free spring rolls (dedicated fryer, IYKYK) and gluten free subs. The staff were so friendly and amazing at answering all our questions. Bonus: large portion sizes, all at a really good price. Will be back again that’s for sure!
Picked up a gluten free lunch today, $30 for 1 meal is kinda ridiculous. I got pasta with the burger and it was an added $8 up charge to get a small portion of gross pasta. The pasta was horrible, very clearly reheated (not well) and definitely a day or 2 old. I could have made Kraft dinner that tasted better than their barely reheated pasta. I don’t know if they changed chefs but their pasta used to be amazing. Very disappointing
I stopped in for a quick lunch during a business trip. It’s always hard to find great vegan cuisine when I am traveling for work.
This location was amazing, their menu had so many great vegan options to choose from along with great substitutions for gluten-free, soy free, etc.
I went with the lemongrass, tofu, beet salad, and I asked to add some capers to it. The server was extremely friendly and had no problem accommodating my request. It was absolutely delicious. I wouldn’t change a single thing about it. I will gladly be back when I am back in the area.
Ambience was great with a fun vibe. Very trendy. Even the bathroom was a lot of fun some cool wallpaper and fun color scheme.
I'm extremely pleased by the staff here.
I had a food allergy I made my server aware of at the start. When they brought my meal, I had about .2 seconds to stare at it before another server swooped in and stole it back stating "Sorry this one isn't gluten free", and the manager appeared from the other side with the correct order. The whole switch out happened in less than 10 seconds.
On top of that, there was no discernable difference to the appearance of the meals, to my eye anyways, so I'm even more impressed by how quick they noticed the wrong one had been presented first.
Finally- it was Valentine's, and they were absolutely brutally packed and still managed to do all this with a smile.
The food was great but it could have been awful at that point (as so many gluten free substitutions are anyways) and I still would have been amazed.
I was working in an office nearby and was looking for lunch - I haven’t eaten here since prior to my Celiac Disease diagnosis.
I noticed on the menu that there is a wide variety of items across all categories that can be made “gluten conscious” with substituted items. If you have to avoid gluten you know sometimes there are no options, or no substitutions available and it can be a challenge eating the same things over and over again. I wanted to give it a shot, so I placed my order on the Moxies website with an ask for GC subs.
I ordered the following to share with a gluten sensitive coworker:
Truffle parm fries
Roasted tomato and whipped feta dip
Chipotle mango chicken
The restaurant called right away and confirmed substitution selections with me. The fries were baked instead of fried to avoid cross contamination, the dip was served with crackers instead of bread, and the chicken was served with jasmine rice instead of ancient grains.
When I went to pick up I was served by the manager who was incredibly friendly. I really appreciated the attention to detail and care that was put into my order- I did not feel like a burden or that the substitutions were too much work.
The best part is that everything tasted great - I would happily reorder these items again and they kept absolutely fine in containers and made it back to the office. We both feel great hours after eating and are excited to be able to add some variation to an otherwise relatively flavourless mealtime.
Thank you so much for taking the time to make my experience great, even if I didn’t dine in!
Monki Breakfast & Bistro is a decent spot for a brunch outing with friends. The bright and welcoming atmosphere creates a cheerful vibe, and the staff are friendly and attentive. However, I found the portion sizes a bit smaller than expected, and the food quality didn’t quite meet my expectations.
Additional Info and Tips:
1. Menu Highlights: Monki is known for its creative twists on classic breakfast dishes. Their eggs benedict variations and stuffed French toast are popular choices—worth trying if you’re into flavorful brunch options.
2. Seating: It’s a cozy space, but it can get quite busy during peak brunch hours. Making a reservation ahead of time is recommended, especially on weekends.
3. Dietary Options: They offer a range of options, including vegetarian and gluten-free dishes, which could be a plus for those with dietary preferences or restrictions.
4. Pricing: Prices are moderate but slightly on the higher side considering the portion sizes. It’s something to keep in mind if you’re looking for value for money.
Pro Tip: If you’re a coffee lover, their specialty lattes and espresso drinks come highly recommended. Pair one with your meal for a complete experience!

I loved Prestopie pizzeria! I’ve been waiting for a place like this to come to Alberta. It’s basically the same as Fired Pie. You choose your dough, they have gluten free options - then you choose your sauce & all the unlimited toppings you want! They have so many different options for the sauces & toppings. The pizza is also perfectly cooked in their fire pizza oven. The size is actually a pretty big serving, I ended up with 1/2 a pizza to take home still! 10/10 recommend coming here! It has a nice atmosphere to sit & enjoy your pizza in☺️
Been here a number of times and have never been disappointed. Earls menu always has a decent amount of good celiac safe gluten-free options. Staff at this location are always friendly and food has always been quick.
Just want to rave about our experience tonight at The Keg on 130 ave SE
Just went there for our celiac son’s 18th birthday dinner and they were incredible. The menu is clearly marked for GF diners but beyond that our server, Eden, took extra care to make sure our son was looked after. All his courses were delivered to the table by kitchen managers to ensure everything was safe and no cross contamination occurred.
Well done team! That was refreshing 🥰
It is great to have a waitress that speaks Spanish and is so attentive and without hesitation makes changes to the order according to the dietary needs. Love they have gluten free options.
Kendra was my waitress and she was amazing, fast, always friendly.

Today was probably my best day at Costa vida I am celiac and even though they couldn’t offer me the sweet pork burrito they had tons of other suggested meals for me to try. They were super happy and enthusiastic at the front and made sure that I felt welcome. This is by far the best location in all of Calgary if you are planning on getting Costa vida come to 130th ave. They also gave a good sized portion of everything from the sweet pork on the enchiladas to the rice on the side she also gave me some sauce as a suggestion to put on my rice and it was amazing.
This is a quality choice for gluten free chinese food. The fried rice is great, portions are always big. Staff is small. always working. There is occasionally some consistency issues on the meat dishes where they go from excellent to just good. But I have ordered here many times and will continue to do so. Palace chicken is awesome.
We had omelets. They were good. My wife would have liked a smaller portion, but we didnt see one. Price was on high side, 48.00 for eggs for three people. Restaurant was clean enough and the server was very nice. They can make a gluten free meal if needed.
The food was incredible, my daughter and I got a gluten free beef dip and it was amazing! I haven't had a beef dip since well before my celiac disease diagnosis 13 years ago.
My son said "it was the best dinner he's ever had"
All but 4 items are gluten free. I don’t ned gluten free, but it was tasty! Had fried rice, beef and broccoli, and sweet and sour spare ribs! Fast, tasty, and fresh
I always stop here on my break, as I've been working in the area the last few months. I'm celiac; have never had an issue with the GF treats, and I'm addicted to the lemon squares :p. There's worse addictions, i guess. Great coffee, also.
To the guests who leave a negative review on the service;
The owner has always been prompt and courteous to me, and to every other guest I've seen in there. I worked over 2 decades in this industry, and I'm not so entitled to expect what this culture demands out of service industry staff. You want a fake smile and someone to pretend to care, go spend 300$ on a fine-dining dinner.
Attitude is or ignoring you is one thing, but this is not the case here. Seriously, go work in a cafe/restaurant for a year or 2 straight and see how you do.
Please, check your privilege.
Hannah was our server. She was so sweet and nice! My kids say she was the best ever!!
The manager was also very nice! Thanks for accommodating gluten free for us.
I ordered a catered corporate lunch and forgot to ensure I had a gluten free item. I called during busy time and they accommodated with an amazing meal and delivered very quickly to ensure they ate with the rest of us. Amazing service, got everything right, and very friendly.
We had the pleasure of eating here after trying it a few months ago, very rarely do we find that there is consistency and they didn’t disappoint. The pasta was fresh and el dante …felt like I was in a cozy place in venice! The fellow (Ganesh) speaking to us was also very nice and told us about the fresh ingredients that go in the pasta. I had the gluten free gnocchi and my hubby had the creamy pesto ravioli. I’m always nervous eating out but he made sure everything was done absolutely perfectly! Really recommend this place as a nice night out and value for money!
The ladies who work here are always so welcoming and cheerful—it truly makes a difference in our experience. The service is incredible, and the food is delicious. I eat gluten-free and my husband follows a carnivore diet, so this spot is a perfect fit for both of us. It’s also very family-friendly, with high chairs available and warm smiles for our little ones.
Damini was super friendly and informative, she helped me pick a few gluten friendly options and all were delish! She really knows her stuff and made the experience wonderful. I had the butter chicken and the onion pakora. Absolutely will be back and I’m excited to try some more items :) great service and food.
A very special thank you to Sam for her service today during the dinner rush. I have eaten here many times for lunch as I work nearby, but Sam is the first employee ever to pull fresh containers of veggies from the fridge to ensure zero cross contamination in my meal when I mention I had Celiac disease! This may seem so simple to some, but to a Celiac, it is HUGE! Eating out can be distressing and the extra care Sam took today really made my day! Thank you Sam!!
Lovely tasting food, had crispy tofu cashew, was full of fresh veggies. Staff were very pleasant. Was a lovely drop in for lunch. Lot of veggie and Gluten Free options
I never give bad reviews unless there is a glaring issue. My wife has celiac disease — we called ahead at the time of reservation to ensure they could accommodate her, and spoke again with the server about the seriousness of the condition & importance to not have any wheat in the meal when we ordered. While the server said they would make absolutely sure the meal would be gluten free - There were no visits from any kitchen staff, which was disappointing, and bottom line - my wife had a severe reaction to the meal. Kept her up all night. We so rarely eat out - she’s basically said she’s never doing it again after this meal.
I ordered a family size Kale Caesar salad and 4 pizzas for a group meeting/luncheon and not only was it ready along with side plates, cutlery and all the panko on the side for the gluten free customers, but it was ready early and Misgy actually loaded in my vehicle for me!!!!!
Thank you Una, for making the lunch perfect and the clients very happy !!
You made today a success and appreciate the extra care and attention to make sure all the details were thought of.
See you again soon.
Love that they have gluten-free crust. My kids only like cheese pizza and I was impressed that they have both a basic cheese pizza as well as a 5 cheese. Found the pizzas very enjoyable. Kind people served us too.

Royal Pizza Seton is fantastic - I highly recommend this restaurant! They are great with working with food allergies. We thoroughly enjoy their gluten free pizzas - and our celiac family has never been sick.
I had the brisket which is always delicious, but the best part is they offer a gluten free bun that actually tastes good and doesn't fall apart! If you have to eat gluten free, then you know how hard finding decent bread products is and especially for take out! Thank you for having options for gluten free eating that are great quality!
