- Note: The restaurant and FAQ acknowledge that, in some locations, kitchens may operate within larger facilities that contain gluten and that cross-contamination is a possibility. The core claim from the restaurant is 100% gluten-free ingredients and dedicated spaces in certain setups.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Some reviewers mention a shared or ghost kitchen setup and note that cross-contamination protection can vary by location. This includes statements that the facility may not always be fully dedicated gluten-free.
- The FAQ explicitly says that even though ingredients are 100% gluten-free, some kitchens operate in larger facilities that contain gluten, implying a small but non-zero risk of cross-contact.
- Despite these notes, many recent reviews and direct statements from the restaurant emphasize a strong commitment to gluten-free safety, with several diners reporting no issues and others highlighting responsive staff and proactive questions about ingredients.
