bollywood masala

I really enjoyed the GF bread. They had a huge menu all marked so you knew which dishes were safe. Meanwhile my gluten eating husband got the garlic naan and the vindaloo spicy and it was good.

I loved bollywood masala before I was diagnosed celiac and was really hoping I would be able to continue to eat here. Unfortunately I tried twice and was glutened both times. Maybe they make their gluten free bread in the same oven, I asked both times that they made it separately and they assured me they did but maybe they just didn't understand what that had to mean for celiac disease. Delicious food, maybe if you only got the curry and rice it would be okay. I just don't think I can make myself try again.

Really, really good. Chicken pekora & shrimp pekora are both delicious, and they seem to understand cross contamination. All menu items are labeled. Eaten here ~10 times and never had an issue. They also have a GF naan alternative!!

Note: There are 2 restaurants called Bollywood Masala in this area, so make sure you’ve got the address right!

Fantastic experience, the people who work here are incredibly kind and happy to accommodate for gluten free, most of the menu is naturally gluten free and they take allergies seriously. The only thing is that they don’t have a dedicated fryer so beware of any pakoras!

I spoke to the waiter and to the owner and of course many Indian dishes are naturally GF, but they were also kind enough to offer a gluten-free alternative to the naan bread made out of chickpeas. Always delicious food here

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Yummmm!!! Safe for celiacs and delish. Great service.

Very accommodating! I have allergies in addition to having Celiac, and they very thorough in letting me know what would be safe to eat. They also apparently are very careful about gross contamination in the kitchen!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They have an extensive menu with each item marked if it is GF, Nut free, or Vegan. The vast majority are gluten free. I am NCGS, have eaten there many times and have had no problems. To be safe tell your server that you are gluten sensitive. Also they will happily adjust spice levels to your taste where possible, and warn you if something is HOT and can't be adjusted. They do not want you to have an unpleasant experience. Oh yeah, the food is EXCELLENT!!
