⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so there is inherent cross-contamination risk in the kitchen.
- Some patrons report that pancakes, waffles, and other GF items are prepared in dedicated areas or on color-coded plates, which provides reassurance, but there are conflicting accounts about how consistently this is applied.
- A few diners experienced reactions or concerns about cross-contamination, particularly during busy periods or when staff uncertainty occurred.
- To maximize safety, guests should ask explicitly about:
- The current handling of GF items (dedicated grill/zone, separate utensils, and color-coded plating)
- Whether any items are cooked on shared surfaces and how the kitchen avoids cross-contact for specific dishes
