DELICIOUS food and very informed staff who can provide information about what dishes they can do gluten free! As of today (Aug 2025), they can do any of the curries gf as well as a few other dishes just by removing soy sauce! The only downside is the only appetiser that they can do gf is the mussels. Other than that, SO impressed!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Delicious food and gluten free options! I had the pad Thai chicken made gluten free and no reactions. The staff were knowledgeable and friendly about managing allergies and had multiple options on the menu. The balcony over looks the beach and it’s right in the middle of town so very easy to find.
