What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- All menu items are gluten-free (100% GF kitchen). This overarching safety claim is repeatedly supported in the collected information.
- Banh Mi sandwiches prepared with house-made gluten-free baguettes (explicitly noted as GF).
- Gluten-free cookies (in-house GF cookies mentioned as safe and delicious).
- Spring rolls (GF options noted in the context of a fully GF menu and consistently safe experiences).
- General bowls and curries that are described as part of a 100% gluten-free offering (safe by virtue of the dedicated GF kitchen).
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- A recent negative anecdote claims gluten was present in catering, which introduces a potential risk signal in certain service contexts.
- There are individual reports of confusion around ingredient sources (for example, soy sauce vs. tamari). In at least one case, an apparent staff miscommunication was addressed by staff checking allergen information; management asserted tamari is used to avoid gluten in soy products.
- A review from a celiac diner noted that bold claims about complete safety can be undermined if staff aren’t consistently allergen-aware, though this seems to be more of an isolated experience rather than the norm.
- Overall, the prevailing evidence emphasizes a dedicated GF facility with substantial safeguards, while a few isolated incidents suggest that ongoing staff allergen training and consistent ingredient checks remain important.
