What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free pizza
- Gluten-free pasta
- Gluten-free flatbread
- Gluten-free desserts (examples cited include cookie dough, brownies, lemon cheesecake)
- Note: Some diners have reported that GF pizzas may be cooked in separate processes or areas, while others have encountered cross-contamination concerns in certain kitchen setups. The menu and staff guidance emphasize marking and communicating allergens, but there is no claim of a dedicated gluten-free facility.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The business information indicates this location is not a dedicated gluten-free facility.
- Some reviews mention cross-contamination concerns related to ovens or shared prep spaces; at least one review specifically notes a GF pizza might be cooked in the same oven as non-GF options.
- Other reviews point to practices such as allergy flags, dedicated GF sections, and clear labeling as mitigating factors, suggesting that risk varies by kitchen practices at the time of service.
- Overall, patrons frequently report strong staff knowledge and careful handling, but the absence of dedicated GF facilities means there is some non-zero cross-contamination risk inherent to the setup.
