✅ Reported safe options

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Not a dedicated gluten-free facility. The restaurant’s setup is not gluten-free by default.
- Cross-contamination risk with teff injera exists in some preparations, per reviews.
- Staff have shown willingness to accommodate (e.g., offering rice), but not all dishes are guaranteed gluten-free.
- Some menu items are noted as gluten-free in practice, but cross-contact remains a concern depending on kitchen practices and specific orders.
