⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Facility status: The location is not a dedicated gluten-free facility.
  • Menu labeling: There is a gluten-friendly menu indicating items can be made GF, but these items may still be prepared in the same kitchen/ovens as gluten-containing foods.
  • Cross-contamination variability: Some diners report sustained precautions (red plates, separate prep areas, careful staff). Others report incidents or concerns about shared cooking surfaces and potential cross-contact, including specific negative experiences.
  • Recency matters: Many recent experiences are positive, but there are still recent reports of adverse reactions or concerns, underscoring that risk is not zero and can depend on staff, timing, and how thoroughly precautions are followed.
