Celiac safety assessment and key features
RASA is a burst of color and flavor for gluten-free diners—almost the entire menu is marked gluten-free, from chef-curated bowls to creative build-your-own options. Staff are trained to answer questions, and the allergy chart is front and center, so you won’t feel like you’re being a burden (a feeling we know too well). While they don’t run a dedicated gluten-free kitchen, they’re open about cross-contamination risks and have gone so far as to outsource most gluten-containing items to minimize exposure in-house. If you’re comfortable with shared prep areas but crave bold Indian flavors and transparent communication, RASA feels like a welcoming spot where celiacs can finally order with confidence.
