What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Arepas (corn-based) are repeatedly cited by diners as gluten-free options and are a recurring safe-sounding staple for celiacs in this venue.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The establishment is not a dedicated gluten-free facility. This inherently carries a cross-contamination risk.
- Some diners report fried items being prepared in shared fryers, which can pose challenges for strict gluten-free needs.
- There are accounts stating that dedicated gluten-free fryers may exist in some contexts, but this is not guaranteed across all visits or items. One reviewer noted safety protocols like changing gloves, which is a positive sign when observed.
