What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Grilled lemon shrimp with jasmine rice (noted as gluten-free in recent feedback)
- Gluten-free crème brûlée
- Sushi/maki rolls prepared with gluten-free soy sauce (as mentioned in recent experiences)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The kitchen is not dedicated gluten-free, so cross-contamination is a plausible risk, particularly with shared equipment (e.g., fryers) mentioned in some reports.
- There are examples where staff intervened to minimize risk (e.g., avoiding items that are fried in shared oil and substituting with safer vegetables) and where the staff explicitly checked with the guest about gluten exposure.
- A past report described a gluten-containing ingredient slipping into a dish that was assumed gluten-free, highlighting the need for proactive communication and ongoing kitchen diligence.
