🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Gluten-free bread for the cheese fondue

  • Gluten-free snickerdoodles (for dipping)
  • Gluten-free pound cake (for dipping)
  • Gluten-free cookies (general dessert dipping options)

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so there remains an inherent cross-contamination risk if precautions aren’t followed.
  • Shared dining elements (e.g., dining with others who are not GF, shared pots at the table) can raise the risk unless staff arrange separate pots, burners, and dedicated dippers.
  • There are occasional reports of miscommunication or lapses in cross-contact precautions, underscoring the need for proactive, explicit requests (e.g., request two pots, confirm GF dippers, verify sauces) and upfront allergy notes when reserving or arriving.
  • Overall, many diners report positive safety outcomes when precautions are communicated and enforced; some reviews note issues when precautions aren’t consistently applied.
