What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Acai bowls can be made with gluten-free granola.
- Gluten-free granola is available for acai bowls.
- Gluten-free bread can be used as a substitute for a bagel; this is prepared on a panini press with some separation (wax paper between sides) described by a patron who experienced it.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination is a theoretical risk unless strict, explicit precautions are followed.
- At least one patron noted cross-contamination awareness from staff, while a separate account described using gluten-free bread on a panini press with some protective layering. This suggests partial precautions, but not a guaranteed gluten-free environment.
- Shared equipment (e.g., panini presses) and standard kitchen practices could introduce gluten into otherwise GF items if careful separation isn’t maintained consistently.
