The owner is very kind and whole buffet is safe. I believe the dosas in the fridge are also GF but did not ask about CC. Food is just ok, but great if you are craving indian food!

This place is a treasure. The staff seemed very knowledgeable about celiac disease and cross-contamination, and they serve great Indian food with many menu options, plus desserts. It's also very reasonably priced.

The entire buffet is gluten free. The only thing that is not safe is the naan which is made separately and kept in the back. Safe and absolutely delicious to boot!! Just, really good Indian food. Also, buffet style means you can get a nice mix of whatever you want. SO GOOD!!!!!!

I love Indian food, and cook it at home often. However, it was a rare treat to be able to order it at a restaurant without worries of becoming sick later. You can order food to-go, but we chose to eat ours there. The owner was very friendly, and the atmosphere was casual and relaxed. It's a rare treat to find a restaurant with an extensive menu free of allergens, versus only having one or two dishes to choose from. All of the gluten free and vegan dishes in the buffet were clearly marked, so there was no confusion on what was safe to eat. If you are looking for tasty ethnic food that is also gluten free, I would definitely try Earthen Jar!
