Best Gluten Free Restaurants in Downtown

We had a wonderful evening with the Miku tasting menu and flight of Sake. Our server was so attentive and lovely.

The Botanist was recommended to us by our nephew and since we were going to Vancouver we made reservations at the last minute. Brunch was the only meal available during our stay and we have zero regrets! The service was attentive, but not intrusive (shout out to Jess, who was friendly, professional and helpful - always able to answer our questions about ingredients and preparation style!). We opted for the full 3 courses and each was more impressive than the last. The aesthetics of each dish, the quality of the ingredients and the flavor profiles were absolutely delightful! Being able to enjoy the courses with a mimosa and a cocktail was a pleasant surprise, as well. And the drinks? Truly inspired! And then live DJ was a fun addition. We left feeling giddy, and it wasn't just the sparkling wine talking.... we felt welcomed, cared for and well-fed. Our experience at The Botanist was the perfect exclamation point on an already fabulous visit to Vancouver. We hope to be back again the next time we journey north ...

The food was good. Appreciated the bread basket while waiting for our mains. Our server was friendly and was training someone, which was no problem. Not a cheap dinner but tasty. All of the food prepared well. A super busy night but was able to get to concert on time as the server kept us on track to leave on time. I recommend as long as you can afford it.

Dinner was excellent. The Baked Alaska dessert was outstanding. Service was way above average.

My husband and I came to Notch8's for their Autumn Afternoon Tea to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The ambiance, service and food were excellent. The moment we checked-in the front desk congratulated us on our anniversary, and so did our wonderful server. We were treated to a special anniversary dessert (not on menu) and complementary glasses of prosecco to toast with. The tea room was well decorated with an Autumn theme throughout, we are always impressed by what an amazing job they do. We had a fall wedding so this was the perfect setting for us. The menu was great with sweets and savoury options, it was hard to choose between the many great options for tea, we loved the ones we had. Overall a wonderful experience every time we come to Notch8 for tea, brunch or any special occasion.
