Good food, however not many GF options. The cheapest GF on menu is guacamole and chips for $11, anything else is not expensive. Would like to eat here again and try something new, however limited options available. Recommend for a good lunch spot.

I love this place. The food is yummy with lots of gluten free choices and the staff is wonderful. They do not have a dedicated fryer so the chips and deep fried things are not safe but the rest is great. I eat here at least once a month and haven’t had a reaction.

Lots of options for GF, staff was very helpful and knowledgeable with the GF menu, they also marked on our order that I was a celiac and that they would be extra careful.

Great staff, very attentive and accommodating. Best service we have had in Nanaimo. Location is small and hot but its apart of the experience. Would definitely go back.

Gino’s staff are amazing, very knowledgeable and the food is excellent. The staff take extra care to ensure you do not get contaminated. I am Celiac and highly reactive to gluten. I have ate there a number of times and never have had any problems. Enjoy 😀
