The review regarding Tofu Vegan Islington emphasizes the need for caution for individuals with food allergies. While the menu lists allergens, it is noted that the information can be misleading or incorrect, leading to a potentially dangerous situation for those with sensitivities.

The reviewer recounts an experience where a dish marked as wheat-free actually contained wheat, demonstrating the importance of double-checking allergen information with the staff. They stress the necessity of explicitly informing the staff about specific food allergies, as the menu alone cannot be fully trusted.

Although the restaurant was responsive by returning the food to the kitchen and preparing a new meal, the experience was described as a "very near miss." This indicates that although the staff attempted to rectify the situation, it still posed a significant risk to the customer’s health.

Overall, the review serves as a cautionary tale for those with food allergies to remain vigilant, seek confirmation on allergen details from servers, and perhaps request special menus designed for allergy sufferers.
