What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free churros (vegan in many reports)
- Gluten-free dipping sauces (dips described as gluten-free in multiple accounts)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Oat milk usage: at least one report mentions oat milk in the churro mix, which is not necessarily certified gluten-free. This could be a concern for highly sensitive individuals.
- Frying oil: there are conflicting notes—some diners mention a dedicated GF fryer, while at least one account references soybean oil. This inconsistency means cross-contamination risk cannot be assumed zero in every case.
- Overall, most recent, celiac-focused feedback points toward a low risk with strong in-house practices, but the occasional warning about ingredients or fry oil means we should stay cautious if you have very high sensitivity.
