What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Ceviche (gluten-free in multiple accounts; often accompanied by explanations of safe preparations)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not described as a dedicated gluten-free facility, which means cross-contamination risk exists in principle.
- One account notes there is no separate cooking area, though staff are described as very careful and conservative with safety, including checking marinades and sauces.
- Some external notes suggest staff will clean kitchen space or change gloves if asked, which is a helpful mitigation, but this is not a formal guarantee.
- Given the evolving menu and lack of a dedicated GF kitchen, explicit confirmation of cross-contact practices at the time of dining is wise.
