Gf dishes are clearly marked and my takeout receipt was marked as “gluten allergy.” However, I’m always nervous for the chance of cross contamination in Indian restaurants due to all the bread, so I tested everything with my Nima tester before eating. Both chutneys tested safe/gluten free, but my entrees tested as unsafe/gluten found so I did not eat them.

This is my favorite Indian place and they are very knowledgeable about celiac safety. I called to order takeout and the person on the phone confirmed what was safe for me to eat. My only "complaint" is that they don't have any vegetarian apps (though plenty of vegetarian main courses to choose from).

Eat here often. I have celiac and have never been made sick (although the food is delicious but also very rich). Like most Indian food, much of it is inherently gluten-free and you have to avoid the fried items and bread etc.

Most of the menu is GF, and they’re very clear about what is and isn’t if you ask. They’re super nice, and the food is some of the best Indian food out there.
