Stalactites Restaurant

Very extensive choice. Had a delicious (very big) chicken giros souvlaki which had one of the best gluten free pitas I’ve had. Also came with a coeliac accredited sticker which was very reassuring.

Food was great and as a veggie coeliac I was very happy with the choice.

They have a big queue outside in the evenings so they rush you in and out. We were asked if we were ready to order 30 seconds after we had sat down, as were others around us. I was still chewing my last mouthful when they started clearing plates. If you don't mind that then go for it!!

An amazing dining experience. Most of the menu is GF. Knowledgeable staff and they reassured me it was GF when putting it in front of me. I ate lamb lemonata and chicken kebabs and fries, Greek salad and had zero reaction.

I was at a work function nearby (darts and games) and the food was your typical canapé style with no commitment to managing cross-contamination - THANK GOODNESS FOR STALACTITES! I opened this app, saw what was nearby, popped down here, ordered a takeaway mixed yiros and went back to my event. It was INCREDIBLE and everyone else wish they’d done the same! Accredited by Coeliac Australia, the team were very knowledgeable about the requirements and labeled the product clearly as gluten free! Love it here!

Magnificent food! I questioned the GF pizza was actually gluten free because it was so good! Cater extremely well for coeliacs, and meals come out on different coloured plates to ensure no mistakes are made. Would absolutely return here!

I enjoyed the food here and didn’t get sick, but as a vegetarian with celiac, I don’t think I’d return to eat here, especially given the long line. My non vegetarian and non celiac friends loved the pita (said to skip the homemade bread though) and lamb skewers. Staff was knowledgeable, informing me of items my party ordered that weren’t gluten free, and my meal came with a sticker indicating that it was celiac safe.

Amazing food! I asked for a GF pita for my daughter and was asked 'is she coeliac?' Gave me a lot of confidence in their ability to cater for her. Her pita was also wrapped with a coeliac Australia sticker on it. Daughter also enjoyed the GF fries. Tip if you have young kids of time poor- order take away (ready in 5-10mins). We got there at dinner time and was very busy so ordered take away and then sat on their outside tables (much quicker then waiting for a table and then waiting on table service). Will be returning!

One of the most popular restaurants in Melbourne that’s also certified by the celiac association of Australia. My first gyro as a celiac and it was incredible!! My gluten eating friend loved it too. The line was around the corner on Friday night so plan ahead. I highly recommend!!

Trustworthy gluten free, but the food was not the best. We had gf and non gf meals in our little group. The receipt clearly stated coeliac on it, the restaurant is an acknowlidged gf venue. The meals were OK, but neither of us felt the that we had a great meal. The prices were high, compared to the quality of the food. Not worth it.

Fantastic experience! Delicious food, fast service, all coeliac options were so tasty, it felt normal to eat out again. Busy place so book a table if you can, and otherwise wait around until you can get in if you don’t mind that. Definitely a winner!
