Their food is absolutely delicious and gluten-free items are really well marked on the menu.

My wife and I stopped in here for lunch recently; we are big fans of Indian cuisine. We both ended up getting vegetarian (nearly vegan; neither had cheese) curries because we wanted something lighter, and both agreed that they were possibly the best vegetable curries we ever had. (smoked eggplant for me, peas/mushrooms for her) The spice balance was just perfect and the ingredients were clearly of high quality. The prices are very reasonable and the portions are a good size- a filling lunch but not overly so. I would highly recommend this place, and it's VERY friendly to gluten-free diets.
