Celiac safety profile

1713 Riverview Dr, Salem, VA 24153
What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free pasta dishes (pasta prepared with gluten-free pasta)
- Gluten-free pizza (gluten-free crust)
- Gluten-free desserts
- Breadless sandwiches (lettuce-wrapped instead of bread)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The kitchen is not dedicated gluten-free, which inherently increases cross-contamination risk compared with dedicated facilities.
- There is at least one report of staff explaining gluten-contamination precautions in the kitchen, which is reassuring, but no comprehensive, published protocol is provided in the collected information.
- Older guest feedback is mixed on celiac-specific safety, though more recent notes indicate positive experiences with gluten-free options.
