What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free pancakes (including plain and chocolate chip varieties) have been explicitly identified as GF options.
- Gluten-free hash browns are repeatedly referenced as part of GF offerings.
- Omelets prepared within the GF framework are mentioned as safe by diners who rely on the GF menu.
- The restaurant provides a separate gluten-free menu and indicates that GF items are flagged, which supports safer ordering for celiac diners.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- A notable point of uncertainty is whether the kitchen is fully dedicated to gluten-free cooking. One external listing explicitly notes the establishment is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, which could raise cross-contact concerns for some diners.
- On the other hand, multiple diners describe dedicated GF spaces or equipment (such as a back-area or separate GF handling) and a GF protocol being communicated by staff. Several reviews highlight clear GF labeling and careful preparation.
- There are a few negative experiences reported (e.g., a GF item not being truly GF or undercooked GF pancakes), which reinforces the idea that diners should verify and communicate their needs directly with the staff at the time of order.
- Recency-weighted evidence favors positive safety signals, but the presence of non-dedicated-kitchen concerns means cross-contamination risk is not zero and depends on the specific kitchen practices during a given visit.
