Dont get the butter chicken. It tastes more like tomato soup than any curry ive ever had. Not worth the price.

Seemed safe though. The atmosphere was good and they had a bar. The cesar or the bugers might be better bang for your buck.

Asked server for a gluten free menu and they had a separate printed menu with all available gluten free options. The menu stated clearly what was gluten free, what items could be made gluten free and how to order them, and which items were fried in a shared frier.

I ordered the salmon without sauce as indicated by the menu and the food was served exactly as I ordered. Did not have any reaction to the food.

They also had ciders on draft and plenty of other cans, bottles, and cocktails.

Fun place. Busy, so it took a while to get food. Not great for accessibility. Had butter chicken (no naan; helped in flavor with some tamarind), grilled salmon w mashed potatoes, and the dips and crisps. The crisps were delicious but I didn’t ask about fryer. No tummy aches!

I had a grilled chicken sandwich/burger with GF bun and it was great. The workers were all very celiac aware and understood cross contamination. Fries are not in a dedicated fryer so those were out. I had rice & salad as sides which were great! No dessert. It was a good place to go with family because they could have their burgers and fries and I had a good option to ‘fit in’.

Ordered the butter chicken online.. not the best food. I didn’t have any issues with it but other stuff on the menu was incorrectly labeled gluten free.

I told my server that I had a gluten allergy and confirmed that the grilled chicken wasn’t coated in anything and also ordered the side salad because the fries are in a shared fryer. Plate came out with fries all over the place. I let the expo know that I couldn’t eat them and ordered the salad - he came back less than two minutes later with the same plate just with a salad. And said he let the chef know to be more careful with gluten free. Being wary of cross contact, I ended up packing up my food and giving it to someone on the street. The wait staff and kitchen were really busy and backed up, but I’ll stick to just drinks here next time.

The staff was extremely knowledgeable about what gluten is and are very careful with cross contamination. They marked it special and the chef brought it to our table as well to ensure that my order wasn’t contaminated along the way.
