⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination risk exists in general kitchen operations.
- Reported practices include dedicated fryers, separate preparation trays, and dedicated equipment for some gluten-free items, which mitigate risk but do not eliminate it.
- Some items (e.g., certain fried sides like curly fries or onion rings) were noted as not suitable in certain accounts, emphasizing the importance of asking about specific menu items and preparation methods.
- The strongest safety signals come from recent first-hand accounts detailing protocols and celiac-awareness of staff and ownership.
