What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Meats and vegetables that are clearly labeled gluten-free on the menu (with GF marinades noted as part of the selection).
- Table sauces that are gluten-free and used for dipping or finishing meats.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Cross-contamination risk exists because grilling is done at the table and multiple items may share equipment. However, several accounts mention actions to mitigate risk, such as changing grills/grates between diners and staff double-checking selections.
- Some experiences indicate only one grill per group, which can elevate risk if non-GF items are ordered by others at the table.
- Fried items and some non-GF sauces exist on the menu; certain items and marinades are not GF, so vigilant cross-checking is important.
- Overall, the risk is present but can be managed with clear GF labeling, proactive staff, and explicit requests for grill changes and separate cooking.
