⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination is a possibility.
- Some guests report positive experiences with separate cookware, dedicated pans, and changing gloves, while others point to sauces or preparation steps that could still contain gluten.
- A few reviews describe situations where cross-contact occurred or where staff were not fully prepared to guarantee gluten-free outcomes; these emphasize the importance of explicit allergy communication and manager involvement when needed.
- Given the variability inherent in a chain with multiple locations, ongoing vigilance and proactive dialogue with staff remain wise.
