The food was very tasty. However, I have celiac and despite ordering a gluten free dish and informing the waiter of my allergy, I got sick and believe my food had some cross contamination.

this place is a hidden gem, have no idea why it's not more popular. very affordable, great food (vegan and gluten free options too), and excellent service.

My favorite restaurant in Roanoke. Lots of options are naturally vegan, gluten free or both! They are all over-the-top delicious. You get to choose how spicy you want it, so if you have people in your party that don’t like spicy-hot, no problem. If you like it to blister your mouth with spice, that’s not a problem either.

Probably one of the three best meals I've ever eaten. Everything was beyond fantastic. The lavender rose lemonade was so refreshing and delicious. Rarely do I see so many gluten free options but I could eat a majority of the menu. Everything was flavorful and cooked perfectly. I tried some of my son's butter chicken and it actually made me laugh with joy. The atmosphere was also very inviting and cozy. It was much bigger than I thought it was going to be judging from the outside.

Stop reading this review now and get to Kanak Indian Kitchen. Everything about this restaurant is spectacular— food, atmosphere, service, drinks. They have an awesome gluten free naan and clear specifications for GF. The rice, the mango chutney, the sauces… I mean, wow. I’m actually sitting in the restaurant now for lunch writing this review because it couldn’t wait. I got an Anjali’s Elixir which was an out-of-this-world, write-home flavor experience. Go, go now!!! I can’t wait to be hungry again so I may come back.

Went there with my family since two of us are gluten sensitive. Healthy food served in a warm atmosphere, with fun variety beyond your standard Indian Restaurant. Fast service, Easy to eat gluten free with many choices, and reasonable prices. Definitely a favorite of mine and one kid, so it is pretty darn good. Ate here two days in a row!!!

This is a great place to visit for something new and delish! VERY gluten free friendly! The service was great (especially with all my questions). The food was so good! Try the chai! Lovely interior and great folks on service.

I'm obsessed with this place. I had never tried Indian food outside of some frozen grocery store meals but now I can't get enough. I can't eat meat or gluten and there are so many options for everyone. I've loved everything I've tried and everyone is so kind, either dining in or with takeout.

The food and the service were amazing: I got the chicken momos, gh'u chicken, and naan. There were 10 momos, which was a lot, but I ate them all myself. Also, I was there with my friend who was crying, and the staff were so sympathetic: they gave us free snacks (gluten free!), and shared positive, uplifting stories. Highly recommend!

I am gluten and dairy intolerant as well as well as being vegan, Talan our waitpersons was very helpful in finding the right things for me. The food was delicious and the service impeccable. Would definitely recommend

Love this little tucked-away spot! Dont let its location adjacent to a Shell station fool you; it is legit. Service was incredible and friendly. They easily accommodated gluten-free diet options, even going so far as to bring me a corn-based naan that was delicious. I enjoyed the lunch special of three courses, and the chicken tikka masala was so tender that it practically melted in my mouth. I plan to return for the Sunday lunch buffet as well. I've spent time in India and appreciated the depth of flavor this restaurant has. And, not for nothing, but the wine selection is decent as well!

10/10 for service, knowledge and dietary restrictions accomodations. Our family has someone will at least one of all the following allergies: xantham gum, soy, cilantro, gluten, dairy, and vegan. The staff were incredibly knowledgable and patient. They looked at ingredientes and double checked information. Their menú had a variety of options that could be modified. Breading was corn based which was great for Gluten Free. We ate there two times in a weekend because food was so good and because everyone could eat there. Sandwiches, pizza, wings, lamb bread, all were delicious! Will definitely be a staple when visiting DC.

Always have a great experience when I visit - ingredients are fresh and food is flavorful. On top of that, customer service is stellar. Antonio is a rockstar and helps navigate me through the menu and accommodations. There are plenty of vegetarian options but I have a gluten and dairy intolerance so appreciate how knowledgeable and patient he is.

FANTASTIC! This place doesn't perform culinary arts. Globowl is practicing culinary alchemy. With the marriage of fresh ingredients, perfect seasoning, and amazing chef skills, my taste buds were temporarily suspended in the stratosphere. I have never experienced anything like this. The only hard part was trying to decide on one dish from the many tempting choices on the menu. Everything sounds incredible. The staff was friendly and attentive. Lauren, the owner and chef is a wonderfully interesting character. She comes from a background of international living as well as an eclectic blend of American experiences. Lexington is lucky that she decided to open her restaurant there. I've noticed on other reviews, here and on other sites ,that people are mentioning "proteins". There are some "add ons" available that would be more aptly called sides. Most of the dishes contain protein rich ingredients. Mushrooms contain 9 amino acids making them a complete protein. Quinoa is a complete protein. Most selections have legumes of some sort. Again, these are plant proteins. Cheese has protein. I see the selections as well thought out as far as being nutritionally balanced and then created with the flavor being very important. My wife and I had a zen bowl and we WERE NOT DISAPPOINTED! It's very rare that I eat someone else's cooking and don't find the need to add a little salt or pepper or find the dish too salty. The zen bowl was quite literally PERFECT. Can't wait to be in the area again so that we can experience another sensational selection. If you are any where near Lexington, the food is worth the extra drive. You don't need to be a vegan, vegetarian, gluten free or have any diet restriction to appreciate the amazing creations this place is producing. Believe me, you won't be disappointed and when you're done eating, your body will thank you for the delicious nutritious experience. Wish all of you the best at Globowl. THANK YOU!

Absolutely love this place! It’s quickly become my favorite cafe to cowork in. The staff is super friendly, the vibes are cozy, the food is comforting (they’re fantastic with gluten free people like me), the internet’s fast, and they obviously care a lot about the community. They even have a rack of coats available for people who need them and hot meals for anyone who’s hungry and can’t afford it. Totally the type of place we should be supporting!

We ordered several dishes. For starters we had veggie samosa and paneer pakora. The samosa was excellent but didn’t really like the paneer pakora — it lacked taste, too much batter and the consistency of the paneer was too soft. The main dishes were excellent: Punjabi Kadi Pakora and Malabar Fish Curry; both were flavorful with the perfect spice level. Portion sizes are very generous. The service is excellent—including the owner who is very friendly and accommodated my modifications as a gluten free vegetarian. He even went out of his way to make a chick pea based roti which was outstanding. Highly recommend Mehfil for the food and service!
