What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free pizza (with GF dough and dedicated prep areas/oven in some reports)
- Fries and other fried items prepared in a dedicated gluten-free fryer
- Desserts clearly identified as gluten-free (examples cited include carrot cake and pumpkin cheesecake)
- Burgers, sandwiches, and other entrees that can be made gluten-free (often with GF bread or buns when available)
- Other GF-labeled dishes and a generally GF-friendly menu, including items that can be made GF and marked as such
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- There are some older and more recent reports of illness at the location, which suggests that cross-contamination risk cannot be dismissed entirely. A few reviews describe cases of sickness or concerns about specific ingredients or flour lines.
- Some guests mention changing flour formulations or potential allergen concerns; these reports show that safety depends on ongoing vigilance and accurate communication.
- Despite these reports, a large volume of recent feedback emphasizes strong cross-contamination controls (dedicated fryers/ovens, allergen stickers, color-coded utensils, and staff training). This suggests that, when the ordering process is followed carefully and allergen information is clearly communicated, many diners with celiac disease feel safe.
