I really wanted this to be a great review. We’d been waiting for months to finally have an opportunity to make it out to white rock to go to this gluten friendly restaurant. We went on a weekend for an early dinner and it wasn’t busy. We thought we just had great timing.The first table we were seated at was terrible, there was barely 2 inches of knee room because it was a fire table with propane underneath (which we were not using). We continuously hit our knees and when we sat back we were so far apart we could barely have a conversation. The only other available table on the patio had this same table so we waited for the one next to us to clear and expressed our desire to move. It took the waitress at least 20 mins to clear the table for us (there were only 3 tables of people at the restaurant. It was not busy by any means).The tortilla was dry, crumbly, and stale, the taco itself was filled with dry, stale, bagged cabbage with no sauce on it. There were also tasteless slimy “pickled” red onions on top of the taco. The fish itself was incredible dry.We stopped eating and when the waitress came to check on our first few bites we told her they were very dry and didn’t taste very good. She offered to bring some chipotle mayo. We agreed and tried that on it. It was disgusting. Between us we started with 6 tacos and were barely able to eat two of them.When the waitress returned, we asked for the bill, she never offered to bring us a take-out container for the remaining 4 tacos (not that we would want it). She did, however, proceed to bring us the full bill including the two taco orders. She didn’t offer to discount it or credit the bill even though we hardly ate any of the meal.We are out over $60 for the most disgusting meal I’ve ever had. I also cannot believe, after expressing our concern, trying again, and still being unsatisfied, that she charged us the full bill.I’m incredibly disappointed and would definitely not recommend.

Delicious food, service is a little slow in the beginning but the food came out quick after. Recommend the seafood risotto.

This place is a touch pricier than the Delta area, however over ninety percent of the menu is celiac safe. In addition, they have quality food sources.Parking is through the beach side, parking lots all along this strip or pay for street parking. It is all via an app, which you can add time to if you so desire.We sat outside, where you are before a gas fire table. I run cold all the time. The strip of gas fire was plenty warm and I even turned it down. You have a beautiful view of the beach when you sit outdoors.My water never went empty. My husband ordered rootbeer and I ordered a mimosa deal: two for ten. I wasn't sure I could drink it all but they are tall, narrow glasses so though my husband drank some, I managed most of it.I ordered the seafood pasta. Due to my gf need, the pasta was dried rotini, rather than linguini. That said, the sauce, capers, seafood and pasta ratio was perfection. It was delicious but it was so much food. I could easily make two meals of it. The only criticism is the garlic toast was a single heel of Udi's bread...rather disappointing...especially when served with such delicious food beside it.My husband got the sirloin and brisket burger and I took a bite. It was flavorful, smoky, juicy and beefy. This is not the bland slabs you get most chains and many eateries. The fries it was served with are also perfection.They have fried pickles, onion ring, poutine, mozz sticks and more that I have never seen offered gluten free and safe from cross contamination.On a side note, there are beautiful paintings hanging, for sale, inside. They are created by the restaurant owners father-in-law.

Amazing! 10/10. Gluten free is everything here. My wife missed having fish and chips and we were told of this one of a kind restaurant. Now she’s able to enjoy the fish and chips with no upset tummy. Jan we thank you for being one of a kind. Your servers are so sweet. Thank you so much!

We have walked past this place a dozen times, but never stopped in. Our loss. The food was delicious, The staff were attentive and fun,and the ocean was in clear view from our seats. A wee bit expensive. Definitely worth a try when you are in White Rock. Try the sticky pudding.

Excellent BC Celiac Association Chapter dinner served at Jans! Total of 30 people enjoyed fresh fish and chips, calamari and other gluten free, safe meals! Beautiful night for dinner on the patio and we were serenaded by a members son - Austin!

Sadly, on May 10, after a beautiful a day at the beach with out-of-town family, we went to Jan’s for dinner. The good: gorgeous weather, patio seating (but strange tables with no legroom beneath), great wait staff. We ordered off the “fresh board”, two prosciutto-wrapped halibuts and two pork schnitzels. Halibut arrived as advertised, “schnitzels” came as boneless pork chops. We should have heeded the red flag and sent it back immediately. I called over our young waiter and explained that the chops were not schnitzel and he, confused, went to the kitchen and returned to tell me they were schnitzel. Then later said apparently there had been miscommunication between the cook ( I’m certain he couldn’t have been a chef!) and the fresh board printer. However we were all hungry and, (unfortunately, looking back), we ate our meals. The good: lots of properly cooked veggies and halibut. The BAD: way overcooked, dry, grey pork chops. Honestly, cooking a pork chop properly is a basic skill and no cook should have ever sent these out of the kitchen! I expected perhaps someone from the kitchen would come out and explain/apologize, but nothing. We complained again, somebody spoke to somebody and our bill was reduced by some small percentage. Unfortunately the damage was done and we will not return to Jan’s.

Very cozy, friendly servers, and delicious food! Loved the calamari and the onion rings the cod is not frozen everything is fresh even the sauce! Highly recommended! Had a small issue with the order but they fix it no problem we ended up getting a free food.

Don't get me wrong. The food tasted good. And the location is top notch. The only issue I take is the price. And I know they can charge whatever they want based on location alone. But, a Plate of fettuccine, with a deep fried chicken breast for 37 dollars? OK lol
