What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free rotini pasta with meat sauce
- Gluten-free rotini pasta with marinara sauce (as part of the gluten-free pasta offerings)
- Zuppa Toscana prepared with gluten-free ingredients
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The kitchen is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination is a general risk to consider.
- There is no separate fryer for allergens, which means fried items could pose cross-contact risk.
- While staff and management commonly take precautions—glove changes, dedicated prep for GF orders, and separate serving—occasional negative experiences (in earlier years or under staffing variations) have been reported, underscoring that vigilance is essential and not guaranteed every visit.
