⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

• Not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination risk exists.
• Menu items aren’t consistently labeled as gluten-free, though staff are described as knowledgeable and able to guide safe choices.
• Some reviewers mention gluten-containing fryers and that specialized preparations (like pan-frying) can be used to avoid gluten in certain dishes, suggesting that safety relies heavily on specific preparation choices and staff guidance.
• Recent evidence includes strong safety signals from staff interactions, but the lack of labeling and facility designation means there is potential for cross-contact without careful communication.
