🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Meats delivered tableside: gluten-free (the primary protein focus of the experience; many guests report all or nearly all meats are GF)
  • Pão de Queijo (Brazilian cheese bread): gluten-free; a table-side GF staple
  • Market Table (salad bar and accompanying sides): gluten-free overall, with bread items kept on a separate counter
  • Mashed potatoes served at the table: gluten-free
  • Fried polenta (when prepared without gluten-containing ingredients or cross-contact): gluten-free in guest reports
  • Caramelized bananas (as a dessert-side option): gluten-free

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Buffet and shared equipment: while most Market Table items and meats are GF, there have been past discussions about cross-contact risk in shared prep areas and with specific items (e.g., bread, croutons, or certain marinades).
  • Past marinades: some chicken options were noted as being marinated in beer in prior experiences; newer practice among staff indicates updates to reduce gluten exposure, but it’s prudent to verify at the table.
  • Desserts and soups: a few items may contain gluten depending on preparation; staff can provide guidance, and allergen lists help identify safe choices.
  • Best practices: request the allergen list printed for your party, communicate clearly about your gluten-free needs, and consider speaking with a manager for a personalized walkthrough of safe options.
