Safety Overview

Celiac safety assessment and key features

67%
Moderate

Atithi makes gluten-free dining feel less like a nerve-wracking chore and more like a welcome invitation, especially for those of us who crave vibrant Indian flavors but need to be cautious. While it's not a dedicated gluten-free facility, the kitchen staff shows solid awareness—packing naan separately for mixed orders and marking many dishes as gluten-free (GF) on the menu. The classics—think Chicken Tikka Masala, Biryani, and Mulligatawny Soup—shine with fresh spices and that soul-warming comfort you hope for, and several celiacs have reported safe experiences here. Still, if you're highly sensitive, it's wise to double-check about prep protocols each visit, but honestly? It feels like a spot where the staff truly wants you to enjoy your meal without second-guessing every bite.
