⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not described as a fully dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination remains a possibility in some scenarios.
- Several reviews emphasize dedicated fryers for GF chips and explicit menu labeling as strong mitigations, while a few accounts mention chips or other items cooked in shared fryers or inconsistent staff knowledge. These nuances mean risk exists but can be substantially mitigated with proactive questions and explicit requests.
- Some individual experiences note missteps (e.g., a branded item served when a GF request wasn’t fully honored) and varying levels of staff confidence. This highlights the importance of clear communication at ordering and a careful check of ingredients and preparation surfaces.
