✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free bread (and gluten-free dinner rolls) reported as available and used.
- Gluten-free bread pudding reported as an option.
- Tonga Toast prepared with gluten-free bread (gf version) has been discussed in reviews.

- Gluten-free cheesecake noted as a safe-seeming dessert option in at least one review.
- Separate gluten-free items often come with marked indicators and separate serving when possible.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The establishment is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so there is some inherent cross-contamination risk in theory.
- There are mixed past notes from longer-ago reviews about handling and contamination concerns, but many recent experiences highlight positive safety practices: allergy menus, clearly marked gluten-free items, and in some cases, dedicated fryers and separate service for gluten-free components.
- As with any dining experience for celiac safety, it’s best to:
- explicitly mention celiac disease to the server and ask to speak with the chef or kitchen lead.
- confirm which dishes are prepared with dedicated utensils, cookware, and fryers, and whether separate plating is used.
- review the current gluten-free options and any modifications or substitutions before ordering.
