What diners say

No diner ratings yet.

Ratings are diners’ own experience. They don’t make a dish safe; neither do we.

Where this comes from

Allergen answers come from the menu’s labels first, then the listed ingredients, then a model’s judgement checked when unsure. How allergen status is decided.

Questions about Masala

Does Masala have gluten-free options?

Yes: 28 dishes are gluten free as served, from the menu read 1 Nov 2026. Each dish shows whether the venue labelled it or it was read from the ingredients.

Is Masala coeliac friendly?

The venue notes: “Gluten free dishes are only as marked (gf). Items under the headings 'Entree from Tandoor (GF)', 'Mains Meat (GF)' and 'Mains Vegan (GF)' we”. Chef’s Kiss reads each venue’s own menu and says where every answer came from. It never calls a dish safe: kitchens share fryers, boards and flour, and menus change. If you have coeliac disease or an allergy, confirm with staff before you order.
