- Fries (GF; typically tied to the GF fryer practice)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The business is not described as a dedicated gluten-free facility, which means there is inherent cross-contamination risk potential in a busy, non-specialized kitchen.
- However, there is evidence of protective measures: a dedicated gluten-free fryer, staff who can discuss cross-contact, and at least one chef who is celiac, all of which reduce risk when orders are clearly communicated and properly prepared.
- Recent experiences include positive notes about cross-contact knowledge, but older reviews also remind diners that not every item is guaranteed gluten-free by default. Proceed with explicit allergen communication and ask about fryers, preparation, and any shared equipment.
