Visited Mozambique as a guest of a private celebration. The menus for private parties are limited and nothing is marked GF. The server said he would check on the items for me, and then showed me which ones could be modified to be GF. I had a salad without the croutons (per his recommendation). I'm guessing they did not actually change gloves when handling mine, because I got sick. Additionally, found what looked like a piece of crouton in my water. Perhaps my experience would have been different as a regular guest; it seems others had positive experiences.

Ate in the patio in the back on the first floor. Nice and cozy area for our party of 6. We All had something different and all loved our meals. Many different drinks were tried and we loved then all as well. The meals cost about $35 each and drinks $13 each. Gluten free meals are marked and about 80% of the meals are gluten free.

They have a gluten free menu but I had a reaction and was down for several days. Perhaps the chef that evening was not as careful with cross contamination, so unlike other reviewers I can not recommend.

I agree with all the points in the previous review. Menu is clearly marked for GF and staff is knowledgeable. There are plenty of choices here. I had the seafood curry and my BF had lamb curry. They serve it with a choice of condiments so you can dial the spiciness up if you'd like. Very good. We dined downstairs on the patio and it wasn't too noisy.

Had a really nice dinner here. Menu was clearly marked and the waiter had a clear understanding of what dishes could be prepared gluten free. Be aware that the upper level of the restaurant is very, very noisy, but there is also downstairs seating that is much quieter.
