Lovely place eating outside on Flinders Lane. Doesn’t have gluten free on menu however chef and staff are all across it. Menu states “please inform your waitperson of any dietary requirements or allergies”. In doing this the waitperson was so lovely and knowledgeable. Instantly told me as a celiac what they could make for me and what was unavailable and why. Gave me a red coaster which just says Chin Chin but shows I have allergies. Brilliant! And the Food, Amazing! So happy.

Don’t miss this but ideally book ahead. The food is amazing. No separate GFenu but staff are great. There are lots of options. Be sure to let them know all your weird Coeliac allergies and they can accomodate. Highly recommend

So many options here. However just careful if you’re ordering in big groups. Couple of meals came out that some of the young waiters said gf and they weren’t. Double check with the servers you trust.

The food here is incredible. The items on the menu aren’t marked but the staff will walk you through what can be made gluten free. They do their best to avoid cross contamination but the kitchen is small and very busy so it’s not exactly the safest environment. I would definitely recommend eating here but be conscious about what you order.

Delicious Thai food. Menu is not marked, but a waiter asked about food allergies immediately and marked off the menu for me with the few items that could not be made gf. Would recommend outdoor seating because it can get busy + loud inside.

Marking 4 stars for safety instead of 5 only because they don’t have gf items marked on the menu.

Delicious!! Vast majority of the menu can be offered GF. If you ask the wait staff, they will cross out the few items on the menu that cannot be modified. We had a feast and it was all really tasty and no issues following. The restaurant was packed, the service was fast and friendly, food came out very quickly. Great vibe, but very noisy. Worth a visit!

So many options! We asked the waiter what we could eat, both of us being gf and df. He took away the menu and crossed out about 5 of the 30-ish items on the menu! Everything was delicious! Plus TWO delicious gf/df options for dessert!
