🍽️ What you can eat here

Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.

✅ Reported safe options

  • Gluten-free bread served at the table (starter bread, often warm with butter)
  • Dana’s Parmesan Crusted Chicken (a repeatedly mentioned GF option)
  • Short rib risotto (appears on GF menus and is referenced as safe by multiple patrons)
  • GF gnocchi (when available on the GF menu)
  • Gluten-free burgers or sandwiches served on GF buns
  • Gluten-free desserts commonly mentioned on the GF menu (examples include flourless chocolate torte, s’mores budino, salted caramel crème brûlée)

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The restaurant is not labeled as a dedicated gluten-free facility in the general dossier. This means cross-contamination risk exists unless strict procedures are followed for each order.
  • While many guests report safe experiences, there are occasional reports of cross-contact or gluten exposure, including instances of illness after meals. These cases are not the majority, but they demonstrate that vigilance remains important.
  • The variability of staff experience can influence safety: some guests report excellent staff knowledge and proactive allergy tickets, while a small number describe slower service or miscommunications that led to concerns about safety.
  • Given the shared kitchen realities that can exist in many large GF-focused chains, ongoing diligence from staff and clear, company-wide allergy ticketing and prep protocols are essential for consistently safe outcomes.
