The Calcutta Grill

Excellent food and service with gluten free options in a cosy environment.

NOT. ALLERGY. FRIENDLY. Edit: I’ve since found out from my wedding planner that this same thing happened to a bride she worked with. They either did this to someone else before poisoning me or did it again after poisoning me. Their negligence is utterly astounding. I’ll try to keep this short. It’s over a year later, and I’m still pretty upset. I have celiac disease and my parents took me to Calcutta grill for my birthday. They had a menu marked for allergens. I saw sliders (marked gluten free) and ordered them after checking with the waiter that the buns were indeed gluten free. My boyfriend and mother asked again when they came to the table and we were reassured that the buns were gluten free. I ate two out of three sliders giving the third to my boyfriend. We then went to play mini golf, and I began to feel sick about halfway through. I hurried back the the club and spent the next hour or so violently ill in their public restroom. I had to take an anti-nausea pill to finally stop vomiting bile and left in an adult diaper and with some of my clothes in a plastic bag. It was utterly miserable, frightening, and humiliating, and the staff was unsympathetic and barely apologetic. They also did not gather up and immediately amend their menus, which is of greater concern. They are blacklisted for me. Their allergen markings are unreliable and their staff astoundingly negligent. I have been gluten free since my diagnosis a decade ago. I’ve eaten in other countries, communicated my needs in foreign languages, had greasy spoon and fast food meals, and never ONCE has this happened before or since. If you have a food allergy, avoid this place like the plague. I include a picture of the marked menu item in a picture that I happened to get while taking a picture of my birthday cocktail.
