The Silver Oak Indian Cafe And Restaurant

Strongly trusted, High-care setup. Either someone close to the kitchen (owner, chef, staff) needs to avoid this allergen themselves, OR the menu marks allergens AND dedicated equipment plus trained staff manage cross-contamination.

The menu has a dedicated 'Main Course - Vegetarian' section with nine dishes, plus several vegetarian starters and sides. Many items are explicitly marked (Veg). The kitchen handles meat and seafood as well, so vegetarian dishes are prepared in a shared kitchen, but the clear menu separation and labelling make it easy to identify options.

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.

The menu marks several dishes as GF (gluten-free), including onion bhajji, truffle mushroom tikka, lamb seekh kebab, paneer tikka, dal makhani, and many vegetarian curries. However, the kitchen is shared and also prepares wheat-based breads like naan and roti, so cross-contamination is possible. No dedicated fryer or separate prep area is mentioned. Coeliac diners should confirm procedures with staff before ordering.

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.

Several dishes are marked NF (nut-free), including onion bhajji, chilly paneer, chole tikki chaat, Manchurian, and many tandoori starters. However, some dishes contain nuts or are not labelled (e.g. kashmiri naan with nuts, malai kofta in nutty gravy). The kitchen uses nuts in some preparations, so cross-contamination is possible. Diners with nut allergies should confirm with staff.

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

A few items are marked DF (dairy-free), such as Manchurian, but the menu does not have a dedicated vegan section or comprehensive vegan labelling. Many vegetarian dishes contain dairy (paneer, cream, ghee, yoghurt). Vegans will need to ask staff to identify suitable options and confirm no hidden dairy or honey.

Only one item (Manchurian) is marked DF (dairy-free). Many dishes contain dairy (paneer, cream, ghee, yoghurt, cheese naans, lassi). The menu does not systematically label dairy-free options. Dairy-free diners will need to discuss each dish with staff to find suitable choices.
