Alexander The Great Restaurant

Mixed feelings as otherwise this place was fantastic. We were in a group so had the meze. I was told in advance that because of my gluten allergy there were a few things I couldn't have - no big deal as I could eat most of it and it was clear what I couldn't eat! But after they brought out the hot meze, the meatballs (which I couldn't have) were on top of all the other meat in the same platter. I said I couldnt eat it because of cross contamination and they commented that I should have told them beforehand as it's already been made so they couldnt do anything about it... felt like the blame was on me and I even apologised which they accepted but in hindsight they clearly knew about the allergy because they checked before bringing out the previous course... my allergy doesnt disappear between first and second courses! They broughtextra halloumi for me instead when asked and the food overall was delicious, I'm just confused about how they can know about an allergy and then blame me for not telling them about the allergy despitethem telling me what I needed to avoid. Maybe they were unaware that allergy foods need to be separate? . it did not go as smooth as other places regarding allergies despite them regularly checking who was gf, which was a shame

Delicious food. Very helpful service with lots of care taken over my need for gluten free food.
