Arya Indian Restaurant
Arya offers gluten-free options including a handcrafted gluten-free naan bread cooked in a tandoor, and the restaurant states it caters to coeliac and gluten-free dietary requirements. However, the kitchen is shared with wheat-based dishes (regular naan, breads) and no dedicated equipment or separate prep area is mentioned. The menu does not mark individual dishes for allergens. Best to confirm cross-contamination protocols with staff when ordering.

Arya has a dedicated vegetarian menu section with dishes like Aloo Mutter, Dal Makhani, Vegetable Biryani, and Paneer Pakoras. The business lunch menu includes vegetarian curry options. As a North Indian restaurant, vegetarian options are plentiful and clearly identifiable, though the kitchen is shared with meat dishes. No dedicated vegetarian equipment is mentioned.

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.
Some vegetarian dishes like Vegetable Biryani and Dal Makhani are likely vegan, but the menu does not mark vegan options. Dairy is used extensively in Indian cuisine (ghee, cream, paneer, raita). No specific vegan menu or staff guidance is mentioned. Best to discuss with staff and request modifications.

The restaurant's marketing says it caters to nut-free dietary requirements, but no details are provided about kitchen practices, ingredient sourcing, or whether nut-containing dishes (common in Indian cuisine) are prepared separately.

Honest caveat: No dedicated equipment or separate prep area for nut-free orders is documented.
