⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Not a dedicated gluten-free facility: cross-contact risk is present in normal kitchen operations, even with a gluten-free/menu approach.
- Shared equipment: some items (notably certain fries and possibly other fried items) may be prepared in shared fryers; this can introduce gluten traces if not properly managed.
- Inconsistencies across visits: while many guests report completely safe experiences, there are documented instances of gluten exposure or reactions, sometimes even when asking for “gluten-free” accommodations or using the gluten-free menu.
- Anchored by protocol: the restaurant generally emphasizes gluten-free education for staff, and many diners report that managers or experienced servers oversee preparations to minimize risk. Nevertheless, experiences can vary by location and staff familiarity at the moment.
