What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free arugula salad (explicitly described as gluten-free in a review). This is the only clearly named, explicitly safe dish item identified in the collected information.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is described as having a substantial gluten-free menu, and several reviews claim staff are knowledgeable about gluten and cross-contact.
- One review mentions that the kitchen takes steps to wipe down prep areas and make safety a priority, and another highlights a dedicated gluten-free fryer.
- There is some variation in external listings about being fully dedicated gluten-free; however, the core business data asserts a dedicated gluten-free designation, and recent safety indicators are strong. Given the evidence, the overall risk appears low, but as with any dining out, staying proactive with questions about fryers, shared equipment, and cross-contact remains prudent.
