What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free pizza crust options are available (GF crust and GF Cauliflower crust). Some pizzas are labeled GF on the menu, and there are mentions of GF items in weekly specials.
- Wings are described as being fried in a dedicated fryer, which helps minimize cross-contact for fried items.
- The menu includes items explicitly labeled GF, indicating additional gluten-free dishes beyond pizza.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The official data indicates the restaurant does not have a dedicated gluten-free facility. However, multiple diners report practices that mitigate cross-contact (separate prep area, dedicated fryer, staff knowledge).
- There is at least one older experience where gluten-free care was described as problematic, resulting in illness for a small group. This underscores that cross-contact risks may still exist, especially in busy periods.
- Given the variability in experiences, a celiac diner should communicate clearly when ordering, confirm current safety practices, and consider requesting visible assurances (e.g., confirmation of a dedicated GF prep space or fryer for the items ordered).
