🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Gluten-free entrees upon request
  • GF chocolate cake
  • GF-labeled appetizers on the menu
  • Salad options served without pita pieces (when requested)

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Not a dedicated gluten-free facility, which raises baseline cross-contact risk.
  • Shared kitchen and shared fryers mentioned in feedback; some diners felt this could compromise safety for celiacs.
  • Some dishes listed as GF may still rely on ingredients or preparation that could introduce gluten if not carefully managed (e.g., rice pilaf containing gluten in some reports).
  • Nevertheless, several diners report successful adherence to GF options when communicating clearly with staff and choosing labeled or customizable items.
