What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- The menu includes multiple items labeled as gluten-free by request or gluten-free by request options. However, explicit, universally safe items were not listed in a way that confirms safety beyond reasonable accommodations.
- Guests have reported gluten-free preparation notes and even a separate GF fryer in one account, but this is not a formal or independently verified safety guarantee.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so inherent cross-contamination risk exists.
- Some items are available gluten-free by request, which can reduce risk when properly communicated to staff and kitchen.
- Guest reviews highlight knowledgeable staff and gluten-free awareness, which is a positive sign for handling restrictions, but experiences vary and none of these notes replace a formal safety guarantee.
- The safest approach here is to call ahead, confirm latest gluten-free practices, and explicitly request gluten-free preparation and dedicated utensils/fryers where relevant.
