Restaurant Massawa offers gluten-free injera made from teff in a dedicated part of the kitchen, though the kitchen overall is shared and not dedicated gluten-free. Staff are knowledgeable and can accommodate celiac requests, but a positive gluten test has been reported. The gluten-free injera costs extra and takes time to prepare. The venue is not recommended for those with celiac disease due to cross-contamination risk.

Several dishes at this restaurant are naturally gluten-free. The sauces contain no wheat flour, and the injera is made with 100 percent teff flour. However, the menu is not marked for allergens, and a risk of cross-contamination exists because gluten-containing items such as samosas and baklava are served, though reportedly not made in-house. The kitchen is shared, and no dedicated preparation area is mentioned in available information. Reviewers have confirmed speaking directly with the cook about dietary needs, but the venue's own website was not available to verify a formal policy. Calling ahead to discuss specific requirements is recommended.

Honest caveat, The FindMeGlutenFree disclaimer warns the establishment 'may not be safe for those with celiac disease'.

GF·CoeliacC
HalalC

The venue's own website states they offer gluten-free pizza crust and pasta options, but no details are given about dedicated equipment, fryers, or cross-contamination procedures. The kitchen is shared with regular wheat-based dishes. Call ahead to confirm safe preparation for coeliac needs.

06
VeganC

Staff are knowledgeable about vegan options and can make recommendations, but the kitchen serves meat and no information is available about cross-contact prevention or dedicated equipment. It is best to confirm dietary needs directly with staff.

Honest caveat, The venue is described as 'Non-veg' and 'Serves meat', which may increase cross-contact risk for strict vegans.

A single FindMeGlutenFree review states that the owner or waitress knows which dishes are gluten-free and that staff will clean the kitchen space or change gloves. The venue is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, has no gluten-free menu, and the reviewer noted potential for contamination. The evidence is thin. Contacting the restaurant ahead of time to discuss specific needs is recommended before visiting.

Honest caveat, The venue is not a dedicated gluten-free facility and may not be safe for those with coeliac disease.
