🍽️ What you can eat here

Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.

✅ Reported safe options

  • Burgers served on gluten-free buns (GF bun option appears in multiple diners’ experiences)
  • Fries prepared in a dedicated gluten-free fryer (where available/reported)
  • Tuna sandwich or tuna-based sandwiches served on gluten-free buns
  • Crab dip served with gluten-free tortilla chips

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination remains a real consideration.
  • Fryer practices vary in the anecdotes: some diners report a dedicated GF fryer for fries, while others encountered shared fryers or unclear guidance from staff.
  • A few diners noted questions about gluten-free status (e.g., whether chips or particular preparations are truly GF) and staff needing to confirm with the kitchen. In some instances, servers or kitchen staff provided reassurance, while in others, there was ambiguity.
  • Because practices can change, it’s wise to ask about fryers, utensils, and separate prep spaces on the day you visit, and request explicit confirmation before ordering items that rely on special preparation.
