Review of Bar Rua

Overall okay! I went on a night where they seemed really short staffed and a bit overwhelmed. The menu was really confusing, because it said that things marked with “GF” could be made without gluten, but there were only “G/“ on the menu so I wasn’t sure what that meant. I asked the waiter if the bangers and mash could be made gluten free, and he said yes, only to return 15 minutes later to say that the chef informed him there’s a “tiny bit of flour in the sausages.” So I was like okay yikes but at least the chef seems knowledgable. So I went with the modified carne asada and had no problems. Nonetheless, it was a bit of an uncertainty for me if I would get glutened.

Also the ketchup packets have barley in them.
