🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Arepas made from 100% corn (gluten-free)
  • Specific arepa varieties reported as GF by diners, including options like chicken and cheese, napolitano, and hawaiana (the hawaiana version reportedly prepared without ham to stay GF)
  • Sauces that were confirmed gluten-free in at least one kitchen check (e.g., avocado sauce, chipotle mayo)

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The establishment is not described as a dedicated gluten-free facility, which introduces inherent cross-contamination risk in a mixed-kitchen environment.
  • At least one reviewer flagged that sauces may contain gluten, and that staff communication about gluten could be inconsistent.
  • While several diners experienced no reactions and kitchen staff confirmed GF items, the variability in staff knowledge and the lack of a dedicated GF setup means cautious diners should verify cross-contact precautions before ordering.
