⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The facility is not dedicated gluten-free, so cross-contamination risk exists due to shared prep surfaces and equipment.
- Positive signs include staff who ask about allergies, change gloves, clean boards, and keep gluten-free items as separate as possible when feasible.
- There are historical reports of cross-contact at other locations, including occasional gluten-containing items appearing with GF orders; recent experiences at this location have been described as safer and more careful by multiple diners.
- Clear communication about your celiac condition and current kitchen precautions is important, as practices can vary by location and staff on duty.
