- Not all marinades are GF;Teriyaki-style sauces or certain seasonings may contain gluten, so careful verification with staff is advised.
- There have been isolated reports of miscommunications or items served that were not GF, underscoring the importance of asking for manager confirmation when necessary and requesting explicit confirmation of each item.
