🍽️ What you can eat here

Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.

✅ Reported safe options

  • Gluten-free pasta dishes (bow-tie gluten-free pasta is mentioned in reports) that can be paired with various sauces.
  • Chicken Bryan with gluten-free pasta (one of the frequently discussed GF combinations).
  • Alfredo sauces that can be GF when prepared with rice flour, as noted by at least one diner.
  • Salads prepared with no croutons (e.g., Italian-style salads without croutons).
  • Minestrone soup and other soups described as gluten-free in some reviews.
  • General observation: many GF options are publicly labeled, and there are mentions of separate handling for GF pasta in some reviews, with appreciation for staff knowledge.

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, which means cross-contact risk cannot be ruled out by policy alone.
  • Recent evidence includes at least one report where staff communication and understanding of celiac safety were not adequate, resulting in a gluten exposure and illness for the diner.
  • While numerous guests report safe experiences and clear GF labeling, the combination of non-dedicated facilities and sporadic negative incidents suggests caution: verify precautions with the staff (ask to speak with a manager, reiterate gluten-free needs, request separate prep as appropriate).
