⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contact risk remains possible despite precautions.
- While many guests report strong procedures (new gloves, cleaned prep areas, separate plating, supervisor oversight), there are occasional reports of inconsistent experiences.
- Some older reviews describe more limited options or concerns about cross-contact; recent evidence generally shows improvements and active staff engagement but cannot guarantee zero risk.
- Always communicate your celiac needs clearly, remind staff about separate prep, and consider asking to supervise critical steps (e.g., plating, sauce handling, and utensil changes).
