What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free bread for sandwiches (GF bread) is commonly available and repeatedly cited as a safe base when used.
- GF salads and GF-friendly bowls are available, with several items explicitly noted as GF or modifiable to GF.
- Items explicitly supported as GF or RGf (with GF bread substitutions available, sometimes for a small upcharge) include:
- The Seasonal GOAT with Pink Lady Apples (GF)
- The Modern Caesar (GF)
- Avocado & Quinoa Superfood Ensalada (GF)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The facility is not dedicated gluten-free, so cross-contamination remains a consideration, and practices can vary by location and day.
- Reports show a range of precautions: some locations report dedicated GF toasters; others emphasize allergy-focused prep and glove changes. It’s important to confirm current practices for your visit and to communicate a wheat/gluten allergy clearly.
- While many recent experiences describe positive safety practices when GF/wheat allergy is communicated, there are occasional notes of cross-contact decisions or substitutions that require careful attention.
