🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Steaks and other protein options on the gluten-free menu (e.g., center-cut sirloin, filet mignon, ribeye) served with safe sides such as baked potato, steamed vegetables, or salads ordered without croutons.
  • Grilled chicken on the barbie, and other grilled seafood options prepared to order.
  • Salads prepared without croutons (house salad, Caesar salad without croutons).
  • Desserts labeled gluten-free, notably Thunder from Down Under (gluten-free brownie) as a reported safe option.
  • Grilled shrimp on the Barbie served without bread.
  • General guidance from gluten-friendly materials highlights a range of gluten-free items across proteins, seafood, salads, and sides.

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The organization states there is no fully gluten-free kitchen, so cross-contact is possible in normal kitchen operations. They emphasize education, glove changes, hand washing, clean utensils, and separate instructions for kitchen staff when a gluten-free order is placed.
  • Some menu items (particularly fried sides) may carry cross-contact risks due to shared fryers or toppings; verify whether a location-specific fryer is dedicated or if items are prepared separately.
  • While many guests report safe experiences, there are sporadic accounts of gluten exposure or glutenings, which underscores the importance of clear communication and careful ordering, especially during busy times or with less familiar staff.
