✅ Reported safe options
- Ice cream
- Cocktails
- Tacos (gluten-free options reported)
- Chicken fajitas with corn tortillas (explicitly noted as a safe option in at least one account)
- Other GF-friendly items are not clearly enumerated as universally safe; availability may depend on the day and the staff’s coordination with the kitchen
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- There is explicit mention of chips being fried in a shared fryer, which introduces cross-contact risk for gluten-containing ingredients.
- The facility is not dedicated gluten-free, which means cross-contact challenges could exist in the kitchen environment.
- While some diners felt reassured after communicating with staff and the chef, other reports indicate staff may struggle to accommodate GF needs consistently on a given visit.
