🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Arepas (corn-flour bun-based arepas) – Explicitly supported as GF in multiple recent accounts and in the business profile. These are the core GF items diners often order.
  • Yucca fries – Frequently cited as a GF-side option; some guidance from diners notes avoiding cheese for dairy-free prep, and a few accounts mention they are safe when prepared without cheese.
  • Note: The preparation language from recent diners indicates that most items are GF with some exceptions noted in older reviews. Always confirm which specific items are GF on the day of visit and ask about preparation methods (e.g., fryers, cross-contact).

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Mixed historical signals: Some older reviews and listings indicate the possibility of non-GF items on the menu, or a change in GF status over time. One diner reported gluten-related illness after visiting in the past, and another notes that the dedicated-GF status may have changed.
  • Signage and communication gaps: At least one recent diner observed no explicit gluten-free signage, though staff assistance helped identify GF options and confirm safe preparation practices.
  • Preparation caveats: Reports about dedicated fryers exist, but there are also accounts suggesting not all items are guaranteed GF, highlighting the importance of clarifying current practices with staff before ordering.
