Mazi Brunswick

Menu marks many individual dishes GF (e.g. Tzatziki GF, Hummus GF, Dolmades GF, Beef Moussaka GF with GF béchamel sauce, Vegan Moussaka GF). However, the venue also serves gluten-containing items throughout (pita bread, filo pastry, kibbeh, gozleme, regular pasta/bread), and the blanket allergen notice states 'food prepared here may contain milk, egg, wheat, soy, nuts and shellfish', indicating a shared kitchen. No dedicated fryer or prep area is evidenced. No accreditation. Gluten-free bread is listed as a menu item, suggesting some structural awareness, but cross-contamination risk is acknowledged by the venue's own warning.

confidence 0.50 ·

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

Dairy (feta, yogurt, cheese, cream cheese, mozzarella, béchamel) is pervasive across the menu. Venue allergen notice names milk as a potential contaminant. Some dishes are identifiable as dairy-free (e.g. Lemon Potato V, Lima Beans Plaki V, Briam Plaki V, Falafel Plate V) but no DF marking is used and no dedicated prep area is evidenced. Staff awareness not documented. Accommodation possible but cross-contamination risk is high.

Extensive seafood/fish options available (barramundi, flathead, sardines, calamari, prawns, scallops, mussels, taramosalata). Dedicated seafood banquet offered. Shared kitchen with meat. No pescatarian-specific marking but fish/seafood dishes are clearly identifiable from menu descriptions.

Egg-free

confidence 0.45 ·

Available on request, No marked menu but staff will accommodate. Quality varies by who is working that shift.

Eggs appear in some dishes (lamb shank soup uses egg yolk, eggplant dip uses 'non-egg mayonnaise' suggesting egg-awareness in that specific item). Venue allergen notice explicitly names egg as a potential contaminant. No egg-free marking on the menu. Accommodation would need to be requested per dish.

Soy-free

confidence 0.40 ·

Available on request, No marked menu but staff will accommodate. Quality varies by who is working that shift.

Soy milk is used in the Vegan Moussaka béchamel. Venue allergen notice names soy as a potential contaminant. No soy-free marking system present. Soy-sensitive diners would need to enquire per dish.

Nut-free

confidence 0.65 ·

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

Walnuts appear in the Beetroot Salad and Jeaze Beeze Kebab; baklava (typically contains nuts) is listed in desserts. The venue's own allergen notice explicitly states 'food prepared here may contain… nuts'. Not appropriate for nut-anaphylaxis diners without direct staff confirmation.

Shellfish-free

confidence 0.70 ·

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

Shellfish (prawns, mussels, scallops) feature prominently across multiple banquets, entrées, mains, and share platters. The venue's own allergen notice explicitly names shellfish as a potential contaminant: 'food prepared here may contain… shellfish'. Not appropriate for shellfish-anaphylaxis diners.
