Full description

Ka Pao is a lively, trendy restaurant with a flavour-driven menu, open daily from midday until midnight, which makes it unusually flexible for late dinners. Reviewers note quick service, good presentation and the fact that nearly the whole menu can be made gluten free.

Reviews

Fantastic flavours at Ka Pao. It's our second time visiting and we enjoyed it as much as our first. Pretty much the entire menu can be made/is gluten free. The interior itself is relaxing and relatively quiet. Service was super quick with dishes coming out as they are ready. Really interesting fun tastes and gluten…
