Top 30 Gluten-Free Vegetarian Havens Across Victoria

Neil Pegram

Night service and a great variety of delicious gluten-free things!

No MSG No Garlic Foodie

We decided to visit Victoria after finding several restaurants offering vegan food. Since Be Love is dedicated vegan and also gluten free, it was my first choice. However, there wasn't that many items on the menu to my taste, but since they promise seasonal items, I had hoped that there would be some pleasant surprises. The rest of my party decided to order organic red and white wines by the glass. I chose Earthblood Tonic juice made with carrot, beet, celery, kale and ginger. It was very refreshing and looked stunning. The Mac Bowl appealed to me because it claimed to have braising greens, seasonal vegetable, and broccoli. I was warned that the sauce contains garlic, but I took a chance hoping that it would be black garlic rather than fresh garlic. Fortunately, the garlic was hardly noticeable and I was not affected. It was a very rich dish and I loved the creamy taste of the sauce. The roasted hazel nuts were strange and tasted as though the vegetables still had soil/sand/grit. I was disappointed with the scant amount of greens and vegetables, and if I had known, I might have asked for extra vegetables. And of course, I could not finish it the macaroni. If it wasn't for the 'gritty texture' I would have rated this four stars. My friends ordered the daily special gluten free ravioli with nettle. They all loved it. We also shared a platter with flatbread, cashew cream cheese, apple & beet chutney. I was only able to have one item because the rest were heavy with garlic.

Thank you for making pizza that I can actually eat that tastes amazing. Finding a gluten-free/dairy-free pizza that doesn’t taste like chemicals and sadness is a true feat. ❤️

This place is unreal! One of the best breakfasts of my life. Begging for y’all to open a location in LA. Objectively delicious breakfast. Plus perfect for my gluten and dairy free needs. I’m still thinking about that hollandaise. Kind staff. Good vibes. Went back the next day it was so good. If I lived in Victoria I would eat here once a week at least. Wish I could give more stars. NEVER CLOSE I BEG.

Excellent food, even on the gluten-free side, and thank you, Amanda, for the excellent service

This place is one of the best restaurants we've been to in a while. Everything we had was fantastic: Beef tenderloin carpaccio, smoked chicken penne, pan seared miso halibut, blackened creole chicken. My wife has celiac and they have a lot of options. The gluten free penne was probably the best GF pasta she has tried. We also had a few cocktails and they were all well made. Earl Grey Martini was a stand out for me. Our server was very nice and accommodating as well and service was very fast.

Had dinner with My best friend and my mother last night. Shalena’s service was exceptional. My mum has food issues that can be a challenge. Shalena could not have been more accommodating. Mum often avoids going for dinner due to her FOD diet Mum was so happy to be so well taken care. Thank you for the exceptional service. They have a special deep fryers to accommodate people who are celiac and willing to adjust a dish to suit my mums food challenges. Cheers

Wooooooow that was so tasty! You will not regret eating here! The flavours were beautiful, the portion is generous, and the mango lasse is the best I’ve ever had! The dosas are gluten free :)

Lisa Hermann

They don't have many gluten free options. I ordered and was assured that the kitchen will take care. I got sick later that night as I have celiac disease. So care was not taken.

Dan Morgan

My wife ordered gluten free, she was served gluten. She is a celiac. Unacceptable. No apology from the server or manager. The item was also left on the bill. I honestly can’t believe this is how this restaurant operates.

Charlie Price

Great Brunch. Excellent for allergies and dietary restrictions as well (Celiac).

James Burwash

Authentic Thai food. For lunch we had Red Curry perfect size. My wife had Pad Thai large portion. Great staff. Great service. Our friends from Ottawa recommended this place when they visited Victoria the eat here cause of great food and Gluten-free Will come again on our next trip. The spring roll was flaky and excellent. There appeared to be five servers at lunch time.

Great staff, delicious food and reasonable prices. Lots of gluten free options for my partner.

Johnny Bravo

I explicitly asked for gluten free noodles due to an allergy, the cashier misunderstood and made gluten noodles. Spoke to owner and they weren’t willing to remake or refund :(

Erinn McLeese

I ordered the onion rings for my friend who is celiac and from the time I called to the time she was able to eat her first onion rings in over 10yrs.... she is IN BLISS!!! And I am so excited for her! Thank-you!!!!

Christie Fraser

Celiac friendly. Gluten free fryer for fries and gluten free gravy. Delicious gf poutine. So glad we stopped by.

Kayla Webb

Perfect timing, friendly staff. And they know how to cook gluten free pizza 10/10 I will definitely be eating here again!

Kate Holder

The Tan Tan Ramen has the most delicious Vegan Mushroom broth and can be done with Gluten free noodles!!!

Eric LeBlanc

We needed gluten free and we were very happy to know that they have a dedicated gluten free menu and they use a dedicated gluten free fryer for their food. It can be really hard to find a lot of places like this, but this is by far my favourite place to eat in Victoria! I really want to thank everyone there who made it very easy to find safe food for us.

Dani Proteau

Delicious, gluten free options, great staff! My only feedback is that the store is so freezing cold to sit in. I’m wearing my toque are so are the staff 😅

Dibs !

The food tastes good. It's a little expensive for a walk up counter when you add on any protein or avocado. Most of the additions were gluten free, which is why we chose this place. They had fun beverage options. It's accessible, but a tight squeeze inside when it's full in rush hours

Jenny Lee

Delicious breakfast- sandwich, gluten free! Will definitely be back!

Jazzy Carey

Only place i have found that has gluten-free spring roll. So delicious!

EVELENE LITTLE

We took our grandson for an early dinner and thoroughly enjoyed the food. There was a gluten choice of noodles which many places don’t have. Upon leaving, we forgot our umbrella and they were so kind that after almost over a month, they still kept it for us. Very friendly staff

Jan Burdyny

Georgia Field

Excellent pad thai and thai food is my favourite. Service was lovely and personable, cheesecake dessert was gluten free and vegan friendly which was awesome. Support local!

Renée Watson

My bestie and I dined at Varsha for the first time on Saturday. From the moment we walked through the door, I knew it would be a great experience. First of all, the seating is amazing. From someone who struggles with comfort in restaurants, I could see that every seat looked comfortable and the layout was excellent. The person who greeted, seated and served us was lovely, she was so friendly and helpful and ensured our experience was a wonderful one! We share Chicken Pakoras and Palak Paneer...both were divine! We found the menu options to be excellent for my gluten free needs due to a wheat allergy. And the prices are fantastic! I definitely look forward to returning more frequently! **I've just read through some of the negative reviews and I'm actually shocked. Our service was amazing, fast and friendly. The food was fantastic. And I see someone complaining that their butter chicken poutine came on a bed of fries....ummm what did you think you were ordering?! Anyway, I kind of think some of the negative reviews are bogus, but I guess everyone has different experiences. I have quite high standards/expectations, and they were met fully!

Sarah Nicholson

As a celiac, this place was easy to share plates (something we don't often get to do with our friends and family). Loved all the GF options on the menu and the variety. Food was so delicious.

Nicholas Whetstone

Excellent options for those with celiac disease and the salsa is absolutely amazing.
