What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Hamburger prepared with a gluten-free bun
- Ricotta toast made on gluten-free bread
- Gluten-free crème brûlée
- Gluten-free chicken tenders (noted in a kids’ menu context)
- General sense that many fried items may be GF when prepared in a dedicated GF fryer (as reported by multiple diners)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- There are conflicting notes in external listings about whether the kitchen is dedicated GF. One listing states the establishment is NOT a dedicated gluten-free facility, while several recent reviews describe dedicated gluten-free fryers and knowledgeable staff.
- Positive signals include staff asking about allergies, confirming safety with the kitchen, and offering GF substitutions. However, the potential for cross-contamination exists if fried foods or shared equipment are involved, particularly where fryers or other shared surfaces might be used.
- As with many restaurants, the safest approach is to confirm with the staff at ordering time about specific items and fryers, especially for fried seafood or items with shared equipment.
