L'Authentique Poutine and Burgers

Asked about the fryer situation and the employee stated there’s a dedicated celiac fryer. Seemed very knowledgeable and friendly. And the poutine with GF gravy was delicious.

I think I visited on an off day because my experience was not the same as the other reviewers'. When I asked about cross contamination, I was informed the burgers are cooked on the same surface they use to toast regular buns but they offered to scrap the grill top before cooking my burger. I ended up just opting for the fries (dedicated fryer) with gluten free gravy.

Friendly stand just below the steps of Finn’s on the waterfront with outdoor seating, only. Dedicated fryer, gluten free gravy for poutine, gf buns for burgers, and understanding of cross contamination and Celiac. Quick, easy, and fun place for a French-Canadian classic.

Delicious poutine at a regular price. They also have GF buns for the burgers. Real poutine, with cheese curds. GF gravy is $2.75 extra, same for the bun I believe. Cozy place on the waterfront!

Awesome spot on the Victoria waterfront to get gluten free (and vegan option) poutine. They were super friendly when we asked if there was a dedicated fryer (there is) and they made sure that the poutine was safe for me (I react pretty badly to cross contamination)

The food was delicious and it was so nice to actually be able to eat proper Canadian food.
