Celiac Safety Score

30
Limited Safety

Burger Naan’s vibrant menu might make your mouth water, but if you’re celiac or gluten-sensitive, it’s a tough spot to navigate. Nearly every dish either features naan, breaded proteins, or fusion items wrapped in wheat-based products, and there’s no mention of gluten-free alternatives, dedicated prep areas, or cross-contamination protocols. The chef’s impressive culinary background shows a love for creative cooking, but there’s no evidence of celiac awareness or safety measures in place—just a standard allergen disclaimer. Honestly, if you’ve ever felt like you’re playing dietary roulette when eating out, this is one of those places where the risk just isn’t worth it.
