3 Best gluten free option Restaurants in Toronto

Q: What are the best gluten free option restaurants in Toronto?

Black+Blue Toronto is our top pick in Toronto. Black+Blue Toronto sits in Weston with the kind of quiet confidence that doesn't require a King West postal code to charge King West prices — and by most accounts, it justifies them. This is a room built around occasions with some weight to them: a promotion, a deal closing, an anniversary that warranted a two-week advance reservation. It's not angling for a younger crowd chasing atmosphere points. It's operating for people who want a serious plate of food and a serious pour, and the consistent feedback is that it delivers both with enough polish to make the neighborhood feel incidental rather than secondary. The menu centers on the 52 oz Angus Reserve Tomahawk as its anchor and main event. It's a bone-in cut that arrives with the ceremony the format demands, and diners consistently describe it as the reason the trip to Weston makes sense. This is a share-it-properly cut — the kind of thing that reportedly commands real attention from the kitchen and real pacing from the table. The Jumbo Garlic Prawns are the established opening move: reportedly fat, sweet, and hit with enough garlic that they function less as an amuse-bouche and more as a genuine first act. The kitchen is known for treating garlic butter as a serious preparation rather than a default, and the prawns are where that shows. Practical notes worth taking seriously: the tomahawk is a two-person appetite minimum, so bring someone who can keep up with it. Weeknight reservations are reportedly better for kitchen pacing — weekend service gets stretched as the room fills and gets loud. The conventional wisdom is to resist over-ordering starters; the prawns are sufficient runway before that bone arrives. Walk-ins on a Friday are not a strategy. Book ahead, request a wall table if you want sight lines to the room, and treat this like the occasion-dining spot it clearly is. Other strong options include Butter Chicken Factory and Coffee Oysters Champagne.
