⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not described as a dedicated gluten-free facility. While many guests report dedicated gluten-free fryers and careful handling, there are voices in the collected information noting that cross-contamination cannot be fully ruled out and that guarantees vary by location.
- Some diners have reported strong safety practices (e.g., fryers labeled as GF, staff confirming safety with kitchen), while others have encountered situations where safety assurances were not clear or where cross-contamination concerns remained.
- For highly sensitive individuals, it’s prudent to explicitly confirm fryer status and cross-contamination practices with staff before ordering and to ask for the most current kitchen handling details.
