Review of Annapurna's World Vegetarian Restaurant

I had a terrible contamination here. I told the waitstaff that I have celiac and need gluten-free (this should have been easy enough, as the dishes were labeled GF or not). I asked about a specific dish, as I didn't want anything too spicy. That dish turned out to be spicy, so I asked for a recommendation. Here's where everything fell apart. The staff recommended a dish that WAS NOT GF. I had told her, one minute before, that I need GF and so when she made her recommendation, I made the mistake of trusting her. The labels on the menu are tiny and the GF looks a lot like the low-fat label. I glanced at the menu and trusted her. An hour later, I was throwing up. Then, when my wife called to tell them what happened, she spoke to the owner, who seemed nice, but made her talk to the manager of the specific location. He was not nice, and in fact chose to believe the staff's story that she recommended something different. My wife had to argue to get my meal refunded, which hadn't happened yet a few weeks later. It's a shame, because I had high hopes for this place. Being all about health (they are vegan and Ayurvedic) seemed like a good fit for this celiac, but it turned out not to be true.

Celiac friendly?

No
