Batika India Bistro

Food was good until we found a cockroach in our food! Manager said it was a problem and offered a credit, but we didn’t want a credit to a cockroach problem restaurant. No thank you.

Fantastic Indian food in downtown Novato. There is always some street parking available, and no parking meters, which is a plus. They don't have a gluten-free menu, but the wait staff is very knowledgeable about what is and is not gluten free. That being said, nearly all of the menu is gluten-free without modifications! There are also a lot of gluten-free options on the lunch buffet. Nice atmosphere for lunch or dinner, and there is a patio for nice weather. I don't eat vegetarian, but there seem to be a lot of vegetarian options. Highly recommended.
