Review of Saffron Valley

The only GF options are the Dosas. The man we spoke with said the tandoori was safe - it's not. Anything made in the tandoori oven with the naan (bread) isn't safe. All the chicken is made in the tandoori oven. The menu is correctly marked; the staff don't know anything, and was rather abrupt and rude when we questioned the GF menu and options. My husband got violently ill; I don't get sick, but I do bruise horrendously and get nauseous the next day. And guess what? I look like I was in an MMA fight and my stomach is doing backflips. The coconut korma had no taste; it was bland and meh at best. The makhni/butter chicken is made with large chunks of bell peppers - which I've never had in all the years and different restaurants I've eaten Indian food. It IS listed on the menu that it includes them, but I didn't notice because all I ever order is the makhni/butter chicken and I expect it to be made in a similar manner at all restaurants (maybe different levels of spices and seasonings, but it's a tomato sauce base with chicken and some cream). I asked for mild, I got medium. In fact, I asked for extremely mild and he said, "Okay, mild." I replied, "No, EXTREMELY mild. Not spicy at all." He said, "Yeah, mild." I knew then I was screwed. The employee I talked to when I started discussing the spicy level and the large chunks of bell peppers got defensive.

Long story short - this place has no clue, the employee was rude, and it's NOT celiac friendly.

Celiac friendly?
