⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- This is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination risk exists, especially in a fast-casual, line-style setup.
- Pita, pita chips, falafel, and some sauces/dips are not GF, which increases potential cross-contact if not carefully separated.
- While many diners report staff consistently changing gloves and using new utensils for GF orders, occasional reports note variability, particularly during busy times or when orders are rushed.
- An allergen guide and online menu are available to help you verify safety before ordering; still, the nature of shared prep spaces means a small but real risk remains if instructions are not followed.
