We had an amazing lunch at Dave’s - so nice to finally find a celiac-safe deli! There are a ton of gluten free options, including most meats, latkes, salads, soup, and more. We had smoked meat sandwiches, latkes, and rice pudding. Everything was delicious! Definitely got a thumbs-up from my Montreal-born partner!
Dave himself is so nice - we chatted for a bit about celiac and food safety. His daughter has celiac, so he gets it. He also used to teach food safety and inspection, and really prioritizes safety.
They also do catering, and have special menus for the Jewish holidays that include tons of gf items. I can’t wait to go back!

Absolutely loved it! The 6 of us enjoyed a very late lunch - 3 of us are celiac. We are visiting from the US. Great for a casual deli meal…met the owner, his daughter is celiac. Enjoyed the Reuben (amazing!) & the beef dip & my non celiac kids had the Bubbies big bowl & fries. All of us loved the coleslaw, pickle & potato salad. We loved the gf latkes. Definitely try this place!!!!…again, the corned beef on gf bread with mustard is AMAZING! Website has list of gf items.

So many great gluten free options. We loved everything we tried - deli, latkes, pea soup and more. The rice pudding for dessert was so good. Owner’s daughter has celiac and he and his staff are well versed in cross contamination and took all the proper protocols to ensure our food was safe.

Went to Dave's with extended family and everything was marvelous! My sister, my niece and myself are all celiac, we all had many options to choose from and thoroughly enjoyed our meals! I had called ahead and was pleased to hear they had many options and were very knowledgeable about cross contamination. I had the eggs benny on GF toast, it was divine. The latkes are gluten free!!! (not made in the fryer) and are DELICIOUS! We were a table of 9 and the service was so fabulous and attentive and everyone, including us three celiacs, enjoyed their meals very much! So excited to have a real deli option in Toronto!
