What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free pasta dishes made with gluten-free pasta, including preparations like penne alla vodka with chicken; there are notes that GF pasta is cooked in a separate pot to reduce cross-contact.
- Gluten-free pizza options, including gluten-free dough varieties (cauliflower crust and GF regular dough) for pizza dishes; there are mentions of using GF dough for sandwiches as well.
- The kitchen is able to adapt many pasta dishes to gluten-free penne, suggesting flexibility in menu adjustments when requested.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The establishment is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination risk exists.
- Positive signs include staff knowledge about gluten and cross-contamination and specific practices (e.g., GF pasta cooked in a separate pot, GF pizza dough options, and GF preparation distinctions).
- As with many non-dedicated facilities, ongoing diligence from both staff and the diner is advisable (confirming ingredients, preparation methods, and any shared equipment).
