Punjabi Dhaba

Punjabi Dhaba has always done a great job with gluten-free. If you call, they’re happy to let you know if what you want is safe, and there’s places to mark allergies/give special instructions when ordering online. The food is good and very reasonably priced, in my opinion.

I’ve ordered from here a number of times with no issues. Always called and told them I had celiac and asked if they could avoid cross-contamination — and they’ve been great with that. However, I recently placed an online order and got sick from that, despite writing my allergy in the notes. Overall really good food, just recommend calling them and placing your order over the phone rather than placing it online.

Punjabi Dhaba is amazing!! I have ordered from here literally dozens of times using the online ordering with a note about celiac in the “special instructions” section for each item and have never gotten sick. One time I placed an online order for something cooked in the tandoori oven and they called me back to explain that those items cannot be prepared gluten free/without cross contact and offered suggestions for other menu items that would be safe instead. Their food is delicious too!!! One of the best GF spots in Cambridge for sure

AMAZING hole in the wall indian restaurant. Most things are GF and they will substitute rice for Naan for the items that would normal come with bread. Extremely affordable and you get SO MUCH FOOD for the price. Cash only if you're ordering in person and there can sometimes be a bit of a wait but 200% worth it.
