⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The location is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, and cross-contact is possible in normal kitchen operations.
- While there are explicit practices (glove changes, dedicated utensils, special ordering instructions, and staff training) described for reducing cross-contact, these do not guarantee 100% absence of gluten exposure.
- Some menu items or preparations (e.g., fries fried in shared fryers, croutons on salads) have been reported as unsafe in certain experiences, highlighting the importance of asking for the GF menu, specifying allergy flags, and confirming with the kitchen.
- Recency matters: recent positive experiences are common, but there are also recent reports of gluten exposure, underscoring the need for vigilance and explicit communication at this location.
