Celiac safety profile
Cool Cat Cafe
Restaurant
1819 S Kihei Rd, Kihei, HI 96753
What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Burgers on gluten-free buns (example: Don Ho burger on GF bun; Luna burger on GF bun)
- Fries cooked in a dedicated gluten-free fryer (regular fries and sweet potato fries)
- Gluten-free buns available for burgers
- Menu items are often clearly marked as GF or can be adapted to be GF
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- There are some historical comments suggesting that cross-contamination can occur if GF buns are toasted on shared grills or if fryers are not clearly separated. In practice, many diners report dedicated fryers and careful labeling, but the possibility is still mentioned in older observations.
- Given the variability in kitchen practices over time, it’s wise to:
- Confirm that your burger bun is being toasted in a dedicated, gluten-free area if that matters to you.
- Verify that fries are prepared in a dedicated gluten-free fryer and, if possible, request that your portion be kept separate from shared fryers.
- Communicate clearly with your server about your celiac needs and ask for allergy sticks or labeling on your plate.
