What you can eat here

- Dole Soft Serve (gluten-free, dairy-free)

- Kalua pork (and other GF chicken/pork options mentioned in GF-heavy dish lines)
- Gluten-free sauces and tamari/soy sauce options noted as GF
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The facility is not dedicated gluten-free, which means cross-contamination risk exists, especially if multiple gluten-containing items are prepared in the same prep areas.
- Some newer menu introductions (wraps) and certain items (e.g., orange chicken on a test basis) have raised concerns about cross-contamination and overall safety for celiacs.
- Reports consistently note that the macaroni salad and certain chow mein noodles are the gluten-containing items to avoid; several patrons have successfully substituted pineapple or extra rice to avoid gluten.
- Observed risk-mitigation practices include glove changes when allergies are disclosed, allergen listings or staff guidance at the counter, and efforts to separate gluten-containing components when possible. However, the absence of a dedicated gluten-free facility means ongoing vigilance is required.
