⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, which introduces a nonzero cross-contact risk.
- Some reviews report experiences where cross-contact occurred despite assurances, including incidents involving shared surfaces or equipment.
- There are conflicting accounts about whether specific surfaces/equipment are dedicated for GF items; some guests report green plates and dedicated prep areas, while others note that not all locations maintain separate surfaces consistently.
- A few reviews highlight the importance of explicit staff communication, careful ordering, and manager-level confirmation to mitigate risk.
