Huge portion, had half left, and took it home. Definitely needs some of the spice provided on the side. Being able to customize the pho is really cool.
The summer rolls are good! Would definitely get those again.
Gluten free and halal options!
Signature mojito is pretty standard, Kind of strong.
Staff were so friendly, explained what everything is and how it's used etc.

Food was absolutely delicious. The service was so-so. Had to ask for utensils several times and remind servers on what we ordered. The place has very lovely atmosphere and they had options for me even if I required gluten free and dairy free food. We took several starters and two mains - all very really good.
Overall happy to repeat the experience ◡̈
The best gluten free fish and chips around. Can't tell the difference taste-wise. The curry sauce is delicious. Just a shame its only available on Tuesdays and not every day!
I came into the oracle yesterday and was greeted by a server called Orin. He was very helpful with my gluten allergy. The food was very good and arrived quickly.
£20 for some chicken strips and chips that were McDonald’s level quality. There’s one gluten free item on the menu- advertised as a “gluten free cheeseburger”.. yet I was charged extra for having cheese on my cheese burger.. I didn’t ask for extra.. they charged extra for cheese on a cheeseburger. Small and dry burger for £16.
Put me off TGIFs for life and I make sure dissuade others from going to any other TGIFs.
Authentic Mauritian Cuisine & Warm Hospitality!
I visited Flavor of Mauritius with a group of 22 and opted for the two-course meal, as it was my first time trying Mauritian cuisine.
For my starter, I had the gluten-free platter, and for my main, I chose the Chicken Daube. I also ordered an extra dish, the Chicken & Egg Upside Down Bowl, since I wanted to try something different. To drink, I had a cocktail, though I can’t quite remember the name.
All the food was delicious, and I really enjoyed the variety of flavors. The restaurant atmosphere was great, and the bar near the entrance added a nice touch to the setting.
It looked like a family-run business, with both partners managing it. They were warm and accommodating, making us feel welcome. The two servers looking after our table were also diligent, attentive, and quick to resolve any issues, which made the experience even better.
Overall, Flavor of Mauritius offers amazing food, a welcoming atmosphere, and excellent service. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience authentic Mauritian cuisine in Reading!
What a lovely experience!
I grew up in an area where there was an Indian restaurant on every road and as a result end up never going out for Indian cuisine because it was all the same.
When a friend suggested Clay's we figured we'd give it a try and what a breath of fresh air it is! The curry is not the "meat in a curry gravy" I remember when growing up. You'll find thing like venison and liver and an explosion of flavours.
The menu is marked with allergens (in-store but not online). As gluten free there were so many options for me with no reaction.
Excellent supportive advance planning for an 80th birthday big family meal. Gluten free, vegan, 'fussy eaters' and last minute changes all catered for brilliantly. Great service from all staff on the day too. Thank you for such a memorable day. We made a photo book!
Last night we had a hearing dog (in training) . We were told as we entered that dogs are not allowed in the restaurant. We explained the situation and the new manager was really understanding. We sat and were seen to really quickly for drinks and were given a few minutes to choose our meals. Very well done . We found all the staff to be very attentive and professional. I , personally am coeliac. The manager explained the whole menu and also gave me other options. When meal was served it was pointed out . The manager personally came and asked how our meals were and had a chat for couple of minutes. Very good experience. Thankyou.
Excellent service and atmosphere with good Italian meals including gluten free and some vegan options. My Penne Alle Verdure was reasonable but could be maybe spiced up a bit and the Pizzas looked a much better option (there are two vegan/no dairy options). Be careful with the grappa - it’s potent! Overall a very good family run restaurant.
Food was incredible and they catered amazingly well for my large group including gluten-free people, vegans and nut allergies. Would absolutely recommend ❤️
This is a must try if you can’t eat gluten!! I had told the lady at the front that i couldn’t eat gluten, she told me most of the dishes used potato starch and not flour! Apart from the battered foods, all of the side dishes are gluten free.
The woman is so kind and considerate ,do ask her on enquiries about the dishes if u have allergies or are gluten free like me ,she’s so helpful.
Popped in for a quick lunch. Got the second table. Food came out super fast. They let me know the gluten free options. The food was absolutely delicious. The tables very quickly filled up and there was a steady stream of customers getting take away. Service was great. If we're in this part of Reading again will definitely come back.
I just want to say a massive thank you to Meena and all of the staff at Angel Bar Caversham. They hosted my 40th birthday party on Saturday, we hired the venue exclusively and they managed everything effortlessly. We started the night earlier at 6 pm and had a smaller kiddies party first before carrying on into the night with the adults! The venue and setup works beautifully, the staff are so helpful and Meena is great in recommending local businesses and supporting them to ensure your night runs a smoothly as possible!
One thing that was really worrying for me would be allergies, as quite a few of my guests had allergies or food requirements and I sent all of these to Meena, who was able to make up special platters for them and cater to everyone’s dietary requirements; including vegan, gluten-free, dairy free, so this was amazing! Thank you so so much for making a night that we will surely remember for a long time!
Very friendly, polite and respectful staff serving good value, well-executed food. Finally found gluten-free falafel and they were just as I like them; crunchy crispy crust with creamy, savoury interior served with tahini sauce, pickled turnip & chillies to keep things interesting. The grilled boneless baby chicken with salad and chips or rice was huge, moist, citrusy and beautifully charred. Sides of garlic and chilli sauces to dip the wonderful chicken. A true value at £13.99! Place is definitely on the repeat list…
