Celiac safety profile

New Us American Restaurant · Restaurant
1 W Liberty St, Savannah, GA 31401
What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Shrimp and grits (explicitly referenced as gluten-free in multiple accounts)
- Fries (parmesan truffle fries) prepared in a dedicated fryer
- Chicken tenders (GF option noted; often appears on the kids menu but can be ordered in GF form)
- Salads (GF options mentioned in several reviews)
- Gluten-free Key Lime Pie (GF dessert option reported)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility. This means cross-contamination risk exists if items are prepared with shared equipment or in unlabeled ways for dishes not explicitly marked as GF.
- A positive signal is the presence of dedicated frying for fries and multiple firsthand reports of staff who can explain safe preparations and, in some cases, change gloves or clean spaces as needed.
- Some older notes indicate limited gluten-free buns and evolving labeling; newer evidence, however, shows more clearly labeled GF options and ongoing staff training.
- Given the mix of evidence, it’s wise to ask precise questions about how a chosen dish is prepared and which equipment is used, especially for items beyond clearly labeled GF options.
