What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Turkey sandwich on gluten-free bread (GF bread)
- Burgers served on gluten-free buns
- Fish tacos labeled gluten-free
- Jerk chicken tacos (gluten-free labeling)
- Casablanca sandwich prepared with gluten-free bread
- Rice and beans and other sides noted as GF in various experiences
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The establishment is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination risk exists in theory.
- Several guests report careful handling: staff who change gloves, use separate prep steps for GF items, and confirm GF status at delivery.
- A few reviews describe incidents or anxiety around gluten-containing components (e.g., substitutions or bread handling) that suggest cross-contact risk in practice.
- Overall, the evidence supports strong awareness and careful practices, but not perfect or universal safety across all dishes or occasions.
