Kiss & Tell

Several dishes are marked (V) on the menu, which appears to indicate both vegan and vegetarian (e.g. Vegan Chicken Baos, Vegan Duck Salad, Green Curry with tofu, Mushroom Sticky Rice, Eggplant Salad). No dedicated vegan kitchen or prep area is evidenced; the kitchen is shared. Confidence is limited as the (V) marking is not explicitly defined as vegan vs. vegetarian in the available sources.

Marked menu, shared, Allergen-marked menu and aware staff but shared fryer / prep. Cross-contamination risk acknowledged.

The menu marks several dishes with (V) for vegetarian, including Vegetarian Gyoza, Vegan Chicken Baos, Green Curry (with tofu option), Mushroom Sticky Rice, Vegan Duck Salad, and Eggplant Salad. However, the kitchen is shared and one reviewer notes vegetarian + gluten-free options are limited. No dedicated prep area is evidenced.

Nut-free

confidence 0.50 ·

Marked menu, shared, Allergen-marked menu and aware staff but shared fryer / prep. Cross-contamination risk acknowledged.

The menu marks Chicken Satay as (GF/N), which a reviewer confirms includes peanut satay sauce. Blossom Beef Salad is also marked (CGF/N) and contains peanut. These markings suggest the venue is aware of nut-containing dishes, but there is no evidence of a dedicated nut-free prep area or full allergen matrix. One earlier reviewer notes the menu is 'good with other allergies'. Confidence is low given sparse detail.

The menu includes several fish and seafood dishes (Salmon Sashimi, Steamed Barramundi, Fried Barramundi, Crab Betel Leaf Bites, Lobster Sliders, Seafood Spring Rolls) alongside vegetarian options, offering pescatarian-friendly choices. Meat dishes are also present. No dedicated pescatarian designation is used, but a reviewer specifically noted fish options for their fish-eating, non-meat-eating aunt.

Coeliac · Gluten-free

Not appropriate, Documented unsafe, multiple negative reports, or refuses to accommodate. Surfaced to warn rather than recommend.

Kiss & Tell is not a dedicated gluten-free facility. The menu uses GF and CGF (can be made gluten-free) markings on individual dishes, and earlier reviewers reported knowledgeable staff and good GF options. However, a self-identified coeliac reviewer (Dec 2025) reports being told mid-meal by the manager that their dish contained 'a little bit of gluten, but not to worry as only a little bit' — a documented unsafe incident. The aggregator platform explicitly warns this venue is not safe for coeliac disease. Tier F is assigned to surface this safety warning.

Honest caveat: A coeliac diner was served a dish containing gluten mid-meal and told by the manager 'only a little bit' — a documented unsafe incident corroborated by the aggregator's own safety warning.
