What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free granola option (Playanola) that can be substituted in bowls
- Most bases and bowls that are naturally gluten-free (e.g., acai, pitaya, fruit-forward bowls) with GF customization
- Allergy-conscious prep practices documented by multiple patrons (e.g., separate prep areas or surfaces, labeled allergy orders, changes of gloves)
- The ability to request bowls prepared away from potential cross-contact and to have ingredients pulled from separate containers
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The location is not a dedicated gluten-free facility.
- Several accounts acknowledge cross-contact risks exist in a non-dedicated kitchen, though many reviews describe strong mitigation practices: gloves changed, separate prep surfaces or back-area preparation, and allergy labeling on orders.
- A few earlier reviews mention varying consistency when staff are busy, and one review notes the importance of clearly communicating allergy needs to ensure separate handling. Overall, however, recent reports repeatedly emphasize careful handling for GF orders.
