Woah, honestly amazing food but even more amazing staff. As soon as we got to the table the waiter acknowledged there was a celiac and went through the menu along with explaining the small risk of cross contamination (as per any restaurant containing gluten) but what they do to prevent it. Very reassuring! But the food was absolutely delish. They recommend getting either 4-5 Mezze or a Large and 2-3 Mezze to share. Every plate we had was amazing, very refreshing meals, light but had the most fabulous flavours. I felt safe eating here and would recommended, we will be returning with a lot of GF or GFA items on the menu.

Really tasty Middle Eastern food, mezze style or larger servings available. Most of the menu is or can be GF - such a refreshing change from the usual situation of being stuck with chips & salad while your friends order the good stuff. Staff knowledgeable and helpful about the gluten issues.

Celiac

Overall Rating

Review


Amazing service and knowledge. Middle eastern food with GF flatbread option, so many Gf choices. Server even reminded my table mates not to lift their breads over the dips because of flour risk and to let me dip first ! Made me feel well looked after. Very busy though so almost impossible to get reservations. But can wait for tables.

Celiac

Overall Rating

Review


Server was knowledgeable. Our party was made up of a coeliac, a gluten intolerant, a gluten eater and a coeliac with other intolerances (dairy, sesame and peanut). Menu was well marked for gluten and dairy. Server brought out a copy of their allergens menu which itemised potential allergens for every dish on the menu which was very impressive. GF wraps were ok but the dips were the star. Lamb kebabs were very tasty
