🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Gluten-free Thai dishes (the Thai menu is described as gluten-free).
  • Gluten-free naan (including garlic naan) on the Indian menu.
  • Gluten-free naan and gluten-free pita available.
  • Gluten-free sauces and oils used in cooking (described as 100% gluten-free).
  • Menu items across multiple cuisines (Thai, Indian, sushi, Mediterranean) that are explicitly GF or clearly labeled as GF.

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Several diners note staff are knowledgeable about celiac disease and cross-contamination, with explicit actions like reminding diners not to share food to prevent cross-contact.
  • Some experiences mention dedicated practices (e.g., dedicated fryers) and clearly labeled GF options, which strengthen safety signals.
  • However, as with many gluten-free venues that handle multiple cuisines, there are references where containment and cross-contamination risk can vary by specific dish and kitchen workflow. Overall, evidence leans toward careful handling and strong staff guidance rather than a guaranteed 100% cross-contamination-free environment.
