How do you prevent cross-contact with gluten in your kitchen?

We take gluten-free preparation seriously and follow strict practices to minimize cross-contact in our kitchen. This includes using separate preparation areas and utensils whenever possible, thoroughly cleaning surfaces, and carefully handling ingredients to avoid contamination. While we are not a fully gluten-free kitchen, our team is experienced in accommodating gluten sensitivities and will take every reasonable precaution to ensure your meal is prepared safely. Please let us know about any dietary restrictions when ordering so we can best accommodate your needs.

Which French fusion dishes are available gluten-free?

Almost our entire menu is gluten-free. Many appetizers, main courses, and desserts are either naturally gluten-free or can be modified to meet dietary needs and without sacrificing flavour or presentation. Our knowledgeable staff is always happy to guide you through the selections. When you dine with us, your server can recommend dishes that are gluten-free and explain any necessary modifications. If you need to know ahead of time, please send us an email.

Do you offer gluten-free options for private events or catering?

Yes, plenty of gluten-free options are available for all catering services as well. Please inform us in your initial inquiry and we can discuss.

Are your gluten-free dishes suitable for guests with celiac disease?

Yes, we treat every gluten free request as if it was someone with Celiac's disease.

Can you accommodate multiple dietary restrictions, in addition to gluten-free?

Absolutely. Chanterelle Bistro has extensive experience accommodating guests with multiple dietary restrictions. In addition to gluten-free needs, we regularly work with individuals who have vegan, vegetarian, nut-free, dairy-free, and other special dietary requirements. Our team understands that dietary needs can overlap and require extra attention, which is why clear communication is essential. When you share your restrictions, our staff coordinates closely with the kitchen to ensure meals are prepared thoughtfully and safely. We aim to provide dishes that are flavourful, balanced, and consistent with our menu standards—not afterthoughts. Whether you’re dining alone or with a group, we strive to make the experience inclusive and enjoyable for everyone at the table. Please don’t hesitate to ask questions or discuss concerns with your server.

Do I need to notify the restaurant in advance of gluten-free meals?

Advance notice is appreciated, especially for complex dietary needs. We are able to be much more accommodating if discussed in advanced. That said, we can typically accommodate gluten-free requests during regular service without prior notice (aside from Afternoon Tea where advanced notice is required). Our servers can guide guests through suitable menu options.

Is there an extra charge for gluten-free modifications?

No, we do not charge extra for gluten free modifications. The only exception is Afternoon Tea, where there is a $2.00 surcharge.
