El Arepazo

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

• The establishment is not dedicated gluten-free, which introduces cross-contamination risk inherent to shared prep/kitchen spaces.
• Some menu items (e.g., burgers and hot dogs) are gluten-containing, which could lead to contamination if shared utensils or grills are used for GF items like arepas.
• Reports are mixed on staff knowledge: a number of guests note good awareness of celiac precautions, while at least one recent guest described receiving service from a staff member with total unfamiliarity, leading to illness.
• While some diners felt confident that arepas were prepared GF (sometimes noting separate pans), the lack of a dedicated GF facility means continued vigilance is necessary.
