What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Pork chop with mashed potatoes (gluten-free preparation noted in a recent guest account)
- Rockfish with rice patty and green beans (gluten-free preparation noted; described as a standard menu item that could be made gluten-free)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The establishment is not a dedicated gluten-free facility.
- Cross-contamination risk exists due to fryer practices: some guests report a shared fryer with precautions (alerts about the fryer), while other notes claim a separate fryer exists. The discrepancy means risk levels can vary by visit.
- To maximize safety, ask explicit questions about frying methods, coatings, and whether a separate fryer or dedicated equipment is used for gluten-free preparations on the day of your visit. Request confirmation that gluten-free dishes are prepared with clean equipment and separate utensils when possible.
