Celiac safety profile

What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Red sauces are described as gluten-free in at least one account; pairing these with gluten-free rotini is noted as a safe option in that context.
- Gluten-free bread was reportedly offered to at least one diner who requested it.
- A gluten-free menu has been referenced by some sources, suggesting a range of items labeled as safe; however, other evidence notes that GF offerings are not guaranteed and may depend on staff and current ingredient handling.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, which inherently increases cross-contamination risk for celiac diners.
- Several accounts indicate variability in whether gluten-free pasta is available, and some reports describe gluten-containing pasta or other gluten-containing items being served to guests who requested GF dishes.
- At times, guests report that staff attempted to minimize risk (e.g., cooking GF pasta separately, using dedicated utensils/pots), but other experiences reveal inconsistent training or communication.
- Overall, while precautions can occur, the potential for cross-contact remains a key concern for someone with celiac disease.
