What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Eggplant rolls stuffed with ricotta, mascarpone, mozzarella, and aged provolone in a roasted eggplant sauce (labeled Gluten Free Options)
- Sushi-grade, seared rare, with a Wasabi Ginger Vinaigrette, served in a house-made marinara sauce (labeled Gluten Free)
- Hummus made from garbanzo beans (vegan & gluten-free option), served with vegetables
- The menu text also includes other gluten-free mentions, but some dishes described with gluten-free labeling may still involve cross-contact risk if prepared with gluten-containing components elsewhere in the kitchen. The restaurant is not described as a dedicated gluten-free facility.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The business is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, which inherently leaves room for cross-contamination.
- External accounts and reviews indicate staff can be knowledgeable about gluten-free needs and may take steps to avoid cross-contact, including asking questions and offering clearly labeled GF options. However, explicit, current, kitchen-wide safety protocols are not documented in the collected information.
- A cautious approach is warranted due to the lack of a GF-dedicated environment and the dated recency of the strongest positive signals.
